F. PERRY. Clt . ba [CONTINUED FROM LA8T WEEK.] aU ?? " ' dr. w. b. johnson. to Greenville, South Carolina, ex November lltb, 1871. 0,1 Professor Reynolds : mi Dear Sir?Miss Elizabeth John- rei jon informs me that you are pre- ar paring a inemiorof her father, the late Rev. VV. B. Johnson, and re n8 quests that I will communicate to you any facta or reminiscences I " may have of him : ^ Dr. Johnson had charge of tlie ^ Greenville Female Academy when U I came to Greenville to read law mi in 1824, and had been there two Tfc nr three years. lie moved from cx Greenville to Edgefield about the ^ year 1830. For five or six years I 6aw Dr. Johnson every day or aI? two, heard him preach every Sab Id bath, and was frequently in his company at his house and else- ' where. lie had a great many ar young ladies boarding in his house, and frequeutly had his young ci friends there to spend the evening. ds Ilis oldest daughter, Miss Mary hi Johnson, was a very remarkable c* young lady, then just grown, and a th great favorite with all who had the an pleasure of her acquaintance. She ac was highly educated, and her mind had been well cultivated. She al- or ways made the social gatherings at th her father's pass off pleasantly.? ai But her life was a short one. In 8ti the bloom of youth, 6hc died end- te denly front having a tooth extract- th ed. Her death waa deeply mourn- }>' ed by the community. None of th his other children at thai timo were grown. Dr. Johnson bad her like er ne<v taken whilst a corjise by a F( miniature painter who then je? happened to be in the village. She th was the pride of his heart, and ho at was anxious to have some memo- N rial of her loved features, for her brothers and sisters to look upon in after-life. th The Female Academy bocaine a wi most flourishing institution under th his care and 6tiperintendance.? ial Young ladies came from all the ai Districts in the upper part of 1" the State to receive liis instrnc- th tion, and complete their w education. lie was a fine scholar " himself, and a most admirable ai teacher, lie }K>sses6ed in an eini- P< nent degroe the faculty of impart- q< ing knowledge to his pupils. All to who left his school were thorough- 1' ly educated. lie was a very strict m disciplinarian, and moat accurate ec and exuet in all his teaching. His ac pupils had the greatest reverence ftf and respect for him. There was a something in his calm, sedate dig- '?< nity, which awed every one in his hi school, and made them afraid of ar Ins reproof. They could not neg- p? lect their studies. th For some years after Dr. John- ft' son took charge of the Greenville cc Female Acacfemy, there was ho in church of any denomination in the village. 1 he old Court Uouse was al used overy Sabbath as a church, at Dr. Johnson determined to make 8<J an effort to build a church, And w carried about the subscription list pi himself. He succeeding in raising is I funds to erect the old Baptist se Church, which, however, was to be I free for all ministers of tbo orthor- J< dox faith. But although, Dr. John- F son was successful in buildug a at house for the worship of God, he ca was never able to organize a I m church in Greenville. Hia ser. I er mons wore able anil Learned, but er lie did not possess that tire and en- hi thusiasra in his preaching, which tu Btirs the heart, and moves the feel- w ings of an audience. I have since bo seen in Greenville, dozens baptized I C< in ono day, whose conversion was re under the preaching of greatly in- ?n ferior ministers. Indeed religion is more an affair of the heart than ?. of the head. Dr. Johnsou^ manner in the pulpit, was cold, precise, and formal, as were his manners at P* all times.. He was, however, '? pleasant and soctable, aud talked well. ii'-? Tl I remember on one occasion, there 8t was to be a ball at the, Mansion House, and preaching in the old b, Court House the same evening.-? tii Tho buildings wero very near each other, apd the young men appoint ed a committee to wait on Dr. 110 Johnson, and make arrange moats ! d< so that neither party should bo in- n commoded by the clker. Dr. | I >hneon received the young men ditely, and ncceedod to their releet, that the preaching should me off an hour sooner, and the .ncing be postponed till the relious services were over. Dr. thnson was very much opposed all balls and dancing parties, it he had good svnse enough to tow that young people would in ilge in those amusements, and at he could not prevent it. Like sensible man, therefore, he ac? rimodatod hie action to the cirmstnncee which surrounded liitn. e was a Stern man, and very deled in his character. But he id great, good, practical senso, id commanded the respect of all lio knew him. I know that when he determined move to Edgefield, the citizens pressed great regret, and felt, itaf corinnolr I/\oo in "EV?. I ?vuo?j) ii 10 ivoa in illC rc*? ale Academy. There was bo much grot expressed at his departe, that he said if he had known eooner, he would not have left . In the course of timehocaino ick to Greenville to end his days, hilst in charge of the Female cademy, he was selected to do* rer a Fourth of J uly oration.? e accepted the position, and ade us a most admirablo address, lis was jnst before our political citcment in 1828. Ilis oration it the impression on my mind, at he was national in his jMilitics, id I confidently expected to see m in the Union ranks, but in dgefield, ho became a warm nul ' ler under the lead of Calhoun id McDuftio. At the commencement of our vil war, he requested mo one ly to witness his will, and whilst e paper was being executed, he pressed himself gratified to know at I had come over to the State, id was with him in feeling and tion. I said to him, that I had iver, for a moment left the State, nnooni) f /-v ! wr?ovu IV UU V VIVUbG YV IiUlt J. ought were hor be6t interests id welfare. My opinions were ill uuchanged. I had the 6atne rrihlc apprehensions of the result at I had always entertained and oclaiiued. But as a citizen ot e State, I felt it to be ray duty to ifend her and the form of gov nment she saw proper to adopt, seling a little sore on this sub' ct, I said to the old gentleman, at I had been greatly surprised the conduct of the clergy, orth and South, in stirring up ctioual hatred and enmity which id led to war and revolution, and at 6uch conduct was inconsistent ith the fundamental principles of eir religion. lie seemed aston* aed at my reflection on his cloth, id dissented. I quoted tho exession of Christ, 4' For all they at take the sword shall perish ith the sword." lie replied, Washington took up the sword, id neither did lie nor his cauec jrish by tho sword." I said liekly, 44 Dr. you mean by this falsify what Christ has said." ic old gentleman saw his dilcm a and seemed a little confused. I nt hiin afterwards, a clergyman's count of the wounded and dying ter the bottle of Manassas. As Christian, in a Christian land, >w deeply ho deplored the horrie scenes which he witnessed, id pronounced it murder on the irt of those who had brought on e issue.

Dr. Johnsobn preached not only >le and learned sermons, but long id elaborate ones. lie was imetbing like the old Soceders, ho wished their ministers to each all day, and thought itfoolb to come to church to hear a rmon only one or two hours long, remember oiv one occasion, Dr. dinson did preach two hours, nul Warley, Esq., was present id so situated in church that lie uld not get oat. After the seron was over he said most nph at i colly, that he had tougli of preaching to last n? live years, and I am sure I >Vor saw him in church afterards. For many years Dr. Jotinn was President of the Baptist invention in South Carolina, and garded as one of their ablest misters. [CONTINUED NEXT WEEK.] ; * . I ? '. '. < ?

A Singular Sto'y in Connection with the Lincoln Assassination p A singular story is told in con- l' noctiou with the Lincoln assossination, by Mr. William Withers, r Sr., which lias never been publish- d ed. Mr. Withers has a son nam- v ed William, who was the leader 81 oi the orchestra at Lina Edwin's R l'hea're last winter. Both father P and son were in Ford's Theatre at c the time when Booth shot Lincoln. 8 The elder Withers was one of the j' orchestra, and pfayed the trombone. 11 Th a I- ? ? - 't m...v jvtiiigci uuu uucu Hcaieu in vl the parquet, but, just previous to ^ the time when the fatal shot was l' fired, he left his seat and proceed- v ed to the back part of the6tage for " the purpose of speaking to some 0 one there on a privato matter. '' The two Withers were well ac " qnaintcd with Booth, and he with d ttiem, the elder having played a l1 game of billiards with Booth, 1 on the Saturday previous, the fornier losing the game, but Booth, w who would not permit him to pay ? for it. exhibited a think mil nf In'lla of largo denominations, and, in a boasting way, remarked tbat lie u bad struck oil. After Booth had b fired, and ho started to retreat e through tlie wings to the back en- 8 trance, ho was met in the passage c by young Withers, who did not ji know what had taken place.? ? Withers was about to speak to n him, but Booth made a lunge at j, him with a knife ho had in his (i had. Withers dodged the blow, t but it nevertheless struck him in y the shoulder in an angular direc f tion, and glanced o ft', cutting ^ through vest, coat and shirt, and ] producing a slight wound of the ji skiu. William Withers, Jr., stat- 8 od theso facts to Mayor Wallack c previous to his examination, who n advised him not to mention the n circumstance of receiving the 6tab, t and ho did not do so. The elder u Mr. Withers cannot imagine for 8 what purpose that advice wasgiv t en.?New York Erx. Singular Tbagkdy.?A eingu1 a r tragedy is reported from g Switzerland. Last spring the wife of a peasant died at Orisons. A few hours before her death she | took a pill which had been pre . scribed by the medical man who J was attending her. After her death, the husband, who was passionately attached to his wife, got S the fixed idea that the pill contnin ed poison, and that it was owing to } her having taken it that his wife r died,and with continually brooding 1 over this though he became quite J! melancholy, and a few days ago ( took his two children, aged res- ? pectively 8 and 12 yoars, and beat out their brains with a ham ' mer, alter which he cut his own throat. In a letter, which was ^ found on a table in his bed room, ^ he stated that as he was unable to live without his wife, he had taken . the shortest means to join her, with their children, in the other 11 world.
