Hill's Spcech in Chronicle and Sentinel: There woro many peculiarities in the habits and character of Lee which are but little known, and which may be studied with profit. lie studiously avoided giving opinions upon subjects which it had not been his calling or training to investigate; ami sometimes 1 thought he carried this great virtue too far. Neither tho President, nor Congress, nor friends could get his viewB upon any public question not Btrictly military, and no man had as much quiet, unobtrusive contempt for what he called "military statesmen and political generals." Meeting him once in tho streets of Richmond, as I was going out and he in the Executive oflice, I said to him : "General, L wi*h you would give us your opinion as to the propriety of changing the seat of government and going farther South." V "That is a political question, Mr. Hill, and you politicians must determine it. 1 shall endeavor to take care of the army, and you must make the lows and control the government." "Ah, General^' I said, "but you will have to change that rule, arid form and express political opinions, for if we establish our independence, the people will inake'you Mr. Davis's successor," "^ever, sir," he replied, with a firm dignity that belonged only to"Lcc. 'That X will never permit. Whatever talents I may possess (and they are but limited) aro military talents. My education and training arc military, ll think the military and civil talents arc distinct, if not different, arid fall duty in either sphere is about as much as one man can qualify himself to perform. I shall not do the people the injustice to accept high civil office, with whose questions it has not been my business to become familiar." "Well, but General," I insisted, "history does not sustain your view. Cajsar and Frederick of Prussia, and Bonaparte, were all great statesmen, as well as great generals." "And all great tyrants," he prompt-1 ly rejoined. "I speak of the proper rule in republics, where 1 think we should have neither military states-; men nor political generals." '" ' ?*T ? - - - - !--i1 1 "JLiut uasningiori was uoui, anu yet not a tyrant," I repeated. And with a beautiful smile he eaid, ''Washington was an exception to all rules, and there was none like hmi." I could find no words to answer further, but instantly I said in thought: Surely Washington is no longer tho only exception, iar.ane like him, if not greater, is hare. Lee sometimes indulged in fiat ire to which his greatness gave point and power, lie was especially severe on newspaper criticisms of military movements?subjects about which the writers knew nothing. "We mado a great mistake, Mr. Kill, in the beginning of our struggle, and I fear, in spite of all wo can do, it will prove to be a fatal mistake," he said to rnc after Gen, Braggceased ' a nAmmonfl ovmr nf TnnnACnoo %J\J ^Vllliuaiiu UIV Hi ill J V4 J. vtiuvuijvw uii event Lee deplored. "What mistake is that General ?*' "Why, sir, in the beginning wo appointed all our worst Generals to command the armies, and all our best Generals to edit the newspapers. As you know, I havo planned some campaigns, and quite a number of battles. 1 have given the work all the care and j thought I could, and sometimes when my plans were completed, as far as 1 could see, the}'seemed to be perfect, hut when 1 havefought.them through, I have discovered defects, and occasionally wondered 1 did not sec the defects in advance.

Unfortunately, they did not comniunics-o their knowledge to me until it was too late." Then alter jU pause, he added with a beautiful, grave expression I can never forget: "I have no aitbition but to serve the Confederacy, and do all I can to win our independence. I am willing to serve in any capacity to which tlie authorities may assign me. I have done the best I could in the field ami have not! fet succeeded as I could wish. I am \ ivilling to yield my place to these best j Jenerals and I will do my best for .he cause editing a newspaper." I W * * ?<!> Dickens Domestic Life. The younger sisten'of Mrs. I)ioj;::is-?2Miss liogartli, who 'was \\jith Pickens when iie died?was a i*m)cr of his household from tliej ;iqic of his marriage. Site was .a , ady of greater energy of charac- '' :erthatt?Tier sister, Mrs. Dickens, k md had tlie faculty of keeping .thejj louse in order, and of doing won-' | lers in the education of the chil-h Ircn. Site was housekeeper audi' joverness in otic. Mrs. Dickons, j t il'tor many years, became acquaint- 1 id with the fact that she was of ilienor consequence in herJmshand's louse, and was in deep distress be u^ise the children loved their aunt r letter than rthc'ir mother. So the 1 ealousy ot the lady was aroused, lot on account of her husband's!* flections going astray, but because ! j icr sister hud won the hearts of j icr children. As this occurred after many years 11 ?f acquiescence in iicr inferiority s to usefulness, the demonstrations f Mrs. Dickens were regarded by or husband as exceedingly absurd, iI Irs. Dickens could not bear to i^ i ^i._ ?...i I UlU Miuumhi, ciuu at iaobr iadc the issue that if her sister jn id not leave the house she would I" iave it. Dickons said that lie . bought the presence of the sisteri-law was more important to the hildren, whom she had cared for om their infancy, than that of the j h ife, who had been of no service} u > them after they were born andjd ml suckled. Therefore his wifeju light.go; and she did go, taking er eldest son, Charles Dickens, Jr. ith her. After the separation the jtrangement grew mdre serious, 11 nd the terms in which Dickens icntions his wife in his will are )ld and almost disrespectful.

Was he not poor indeed. What made bim so ? Strong drink. You know it is one of tiio worst enemies a man can have. John was pretty much good for nothing. lie would contrive (o keep sober u while, and earn something, but only to spend it for drink and leave work till it was gone. Of course nobody felt ho was worth employing. John well knew people turned t*oold shoulder to him, and at times felt it bittcr'y lie was feeling so as ho walked down the street, when somebody tapped him on the back. IIo turned quickly round and mot a kind faco, and a still kinder voice said, "You have been drinking to-day." ,lYes sir, I have been, said John, not angry, as ho might have been ; for the friendly tone, as well as the friendly tap touched his heart. "Why do you not sign thcplcdgo?" askud the stranger. "I am a ruined man," said John, "and had as lief dio as live, and 1 shall before long." ' You will }*et livo to ho respected and happy," said his new found friend; "only take thw pledge aud make a stand of total abstinence." When diu poor John listen to such encouraging words before ? Was there a ray of hope left for him ? I>id anybody in the wide world feel an interest in him ? Well he would, and then and there did, promise to s:gn the I ..1^.1../% l 11 rt\*f Airnn'nni of n J.J!l?U?V7 lliu ? v *j IIV/?\U V au ti temperance meeting; but ho had hard work to keep sober enough to go. ]Ic did, however, and went to the meeting. When the chancc was given to speak, he steadied himself on his legs and made a speech, ile saw his friend among the audience, who smiled, and tho approving siniIc nerved him to the task. John signed thepUdgo with a trembling hand. "I've done it! I've done it!" he said tc himself again and again on leaving the hall. I The next day was an awful day. IIow he longed for one glass of brnndv to ston tho trnawimr in his stom J - ' I t? rach and sto-idy his shaking nerves; but his pledge. "I do agree I will not use it, and I muslfight it out," he said. It was a dreadful fight. "O, m)* God, I shall die; I cannot hold ' out!" lie sometimes groaned aloud. ITc went to the shop, told his employer what ho had done, and asked , tor work, but he saw ihey had little faith in his reforming. Pretty soon a gentleman came in ; "Good morning," he sa;.d to poor , John. "I saw you sign the pledge lust night; 1 have but a few moments to spare, but I thought would just give }*ftu a call and tell you to keep up a brave heart. My oflicc is in the Exchange. Come and sec mc; I shall be happy to sec you. God bless you/' Good words; comforting words; strengthening words! .Never be O O stingy of such words. When a poor fellow reforms, there arc always some ready to sneer at hi an and doubt; and to be doubted is dreadfully diseoura- ging.
