Jim luowiilow's JiJllantTeed.
I n-iutniber a splendid feat of
!ira)S," said an old Senator to-day.
.'At tin- time Gen. Stoneman made his
awful liasn) while on a raid inside of
tlK. Confederate lines, and surrendered
his t-ntire otUiit, including' himself, to
;, f,,ice inferior in numbers, made up
jiriiH-ijiaily of the hollyhock, sassafras,
I'iii.-enfr. and hoophole forces under the
n.nii:!anl of "the Falstaff of the Uebel
j;nllHovell Cobb there was per
formed n feat of arms by a young sol
dier f Kat Tennessee which was uu
j.ai alieleil in the history of the war on
ither side, and one that called forth
the applause of even Longstreet and
the veterans he commanded. Finding
hinwlf, as he supposed, entirely sur
rounded by a superior force, Stoneman
determined to surrender, though for
form's sake, he concluded to hold a
council with his regiment and brigade
commanders. . Among those command
ing a regiment in Stoneman's force
w as young Jim Brownlow, son of Gov.
iSrou nlow, the lighting parson. When
voung li row n low appeared before hia
commander, being the youngest regi
mental commander present, Gen. Stone
man informed him that he intended to
Mirrender, and asked him what he
thought of it. Young Brownlow ob
jected, and said there was no neces
sity for it. lie was overruled, how
ever, and then he demanded the privi
lege of cutting his way out with his
regiment, if he could, for he and his
men knew that if they were captured
they could expect no mercy, for they
would be treated as traitoi's to the
South, dlowever, he was told to cut
his way out if lie could. Sweeping the
Ke!el circle with his field-glass he
thought he could detect a weak place
in it :it one point. Riding up to the
head of his regiment he announced to
his men that they must either cut their
way out or starve to death in a Rebel
prison, and asked them to decide at
once what they would do. With a
shout they demanded to be led against
the foe. Ordering his men to draw
salires and follow him, like a- thunder
bolt the thousand mountaineers hurled
themselves straight at the weak spot:
but they were repulsed. Airain they
tried it, and again they were hurled
hack. Forming his men again for the
third time, the fearless young leader
told them that there must be no more
recoiling: that they must get out or
.lie. Once more the charge was sound
ed., and straight as an arrow" young
Ihownlow hurled himself and his men
at the Rebel line and broke it as a ;
whirlwind. Longstreet came up just
as the first charge was repulsed, and
miw the whole ail'air from beginning to
linish. He asked who the Union lead
er was, and was told. Then he inquired
if Col. Brownlow had been educated at
West Point. He was answered in the
negative, when he said: 'That J'oung
man is a natural soldier, and that is
the finest feat of anas I ever witnessed.
Any regiment may break through an
encircling line on the first charge and
thus get away, but to be repulsed twice
and stiil persevere, and succeed in the
third ellbrt, is a feat almost unparal
leled in the history of war.' The story
of that day's gallant action wrill be re
membered and rehearsed in the moun
tains of East Tennessee as long as the
memory of the great Rebellion shall be
preserved among men. Col. Brown
low was a chip off the old block, sure."
Wuxhi nylon Letter in Indianapolis
Journal.
Judge Bleckley's Man Servant.
A curious story is told of Judge
Bleckley. A short time .ago, as the
story goes, a negro man servant stole
one of the judge's shirts. The judge
suspected him, but said nothing. The
negro's fears were allayed and he had
about forgotten the theft. One morn
ing, while in his bath, Judge Bleckley
determined that the time for action
had come. He rang the bell for the
servant. When the negro appeared
Judge Bleckley arose suddenly from
the bath tub and quickly extending his
long lingers, dripping with water, said
in a voice of thunder:
"You stole my shirt!"
The negro dropped as though he had
been "shot, and remained motionless
upon the floor. Judge Bleckley got
out ot the bath tub, approached htm,
and found that he had fainted and was
then unconscious. Applications of
hartshorn revived the negro, and he
confessed to the theft, A few days af
terward a peculiar half dollar that
" udgc Bleckley had carried for thirty
years, and that had been lately lost,
was mysteriously l-estored to its accus
'onied place. The servant not only
made confession but restitution. From
that day to this he has been a changed
inan. He has lost Uesh, cheerfulness
and tone. The judge will allow no one
to speak to him in a harsh voice, and
treats him with tender consideration
himself. It is doubtful, however, if he
will ever recover from the shock to his
mental and nervous system occasioned
when the judge arose from the bath
ami denounced him in thunderous
tones. Atlanta Constitution.

Your Children
Are constantly exposed to danger from
Colds, Whooping Cough, Croup, and
diseases peculiar to the throat and
lungs. For such ailments, Ayer's
Cherry Pectoral, promptly adminis
tered, affords speedy relief and cure.
As a remedy for "Whooping Cough,
with -which many of our children were
afflicted, we used, during the past win
ter, with much satisfaction, Ayer's
Cherry Pectoral. For thi3 affection, we
consider this preparation the most'er2
cacious of all the medicines which hare
come to our knowledge. Mary Park
hurst. PreceptresR, Home for Little
Wanderers, Doncaster, Md.
Jly children have been peculiarly sub
ject to attacks of Croup, and I failed to
rind any effective remedy until I com
menced administering Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral. This preparation relieves the
difficulty of breathing and invariably
cures the complaint. David G. Starks,
Chatham, Columbia Co., N. Y.
I have used Ayer's Cherry Pectoral
in my family for many years, and
have found it especially valuable in
Whooping Cough. This medicine allays
all irritation, prevents inflammation from
extending tq the lungs, and quicklv sub
dues any tendency to Lung Complaint. .
J. B. Yellington, Plainville, Mich. '
I find no medicine so effective, for
Croup and Whooping Cough, as Ayer's
Cherry Pectoral. It was the means of
saving the life of my little boy, only six
months old, carrying- him safely through
the worst case of Whooping Cough I ever
saw. J ane Malone, Piney Flats, Tenn.
