"Who burned Columbia?" has come up again for some more controversy in the newspapers. Capt. Ira 8. Sampson, of the 2d Massachusetts Heavy Artillory, has recently said thai on the morning of February.17,1865, bet?re the arrival of Sherman's army, he saw tho work of set? ting fire to the buildings begun by Gen. Wheeler's Confederate cavalry before the latter cleared out. In contradiction of the statement, another gantleman who was attached to Gen. Hazen's division, says that when that command entered the city about 4 o'clock that afternoon there was no sign of burning buildings and the city was as quiot as a country village. Wheeler and his soldiers had left early in the morning. Gen. Wheeler was seen by a Post re? porter, to whom he told what he knew about the burning of Columbia, S. C, illustrating his narrative on a map which hung on the wall of one of the commit? tee rooms at the Capitol. "I saw the blazes," said Gen. Wheeler, "as they arose above the burning homes of Co? lumbia, but I saw them from a distance. It was late on the evening of February 17 when the fires were seen from our camp, which was three or four miles out? side of the city. After holding a con? ference with Beauregard and Wade Hampton I galloped away from the city with the last of my men not later than 8 or 9 o'clock that morning, and I have not been there since. Before leaving, Gen. Hampton and myself rode through the town and cleared out all our men. Sherman was crossing the river about two miles above Columbia, and we knew we could not keep him out. I had fought him inch by inch all the way up from Aiken, On the day before he had driven me. across the river a short dis? tance above where the Broad and the Saluda join to form the Congaree. We ?crossed the Broad by an old wooden bridge on stone piers. As soon as the bridge had served our purpose it was to be burned. When most of our men had crossed the torch was applied to the bridge. We wanted to have it well burning before we left, bo that it would be useless to Sherman's men when they reached it. It was an old, old structure, dry as tinder, and burned very fast. I didn't cross the bridge myself until the last minute.. I stayed behind until there we're only six of us left. Wo kept firing into Sherman's army as it approached. It was our purpose to hold the bridge until its destruction was ausured. Sud? denly one of my men shouted :' 'See the blazes, General; we're too late.' Tho fire was spreading fast, and to get across we had to ride through a wall of flames. Away we started, but when we came to the fire my horse wouldn't pass through, and Sherman's men were behind us. My men would have done anything for me. It is impossible to appreciate the mutual attachment of men who ha?e neen together in a four years' continu? ous war, unless you have known it, and few generals have ever been so fortunate as I in that respect. ? Of course a new brigade was occasionally sent to me and an old one taken away, but many of my men were with: me constantly from the beginning of the war to the close. When my horse shied at the blazing barrier the brave.boys didn't desert me. Two of them who had already ridden through and been singed in passing rode back and risked the fire again to rescue me. Their horses were not as timorous asinine. Every.man of the little band dismounted and actually clubbed my horso through the fire with the butts of their guns."' ' : WATCHING THE TOWN BURN. "On February 17," continued the Gen? eral, "from a safe distance we watched Sherman's army cross the river and march upon the town. I could see the mayor drive out in a carriage 1? meet the officers. From the carriage a great white sheet was waving. It was a sheet that had been taken probably from the may? or's bed to be used as a flag of peace. The mayor and Sherman's officers rode into the town, together. It was hours after that before we saw the blazes rising from the burning houses. Beauregard, Wade Hampton and myself'took differ? ent directions. The Federals made no pursuit." '" There are now in the Senate and House ?of Representatives twenltf-'three gen tie men who were then in Gen. Wheeler's command, most of them privates. Gen. Wheeler and Gen. Wade Hampton had not spoken to each other about the burn? ing of Columbia 6ince the event trans? pired until the Post reporter draw them together. They do not see why there should be any .controversy about the burning of Columbia, or that there should be any doubt about who did it, inasmuch as on October 8,1885, Brig. Gen. 0. M. Poe, Gen. Sherman's chief of engineers, reported, and the Secretary of war after? ward transmitted the report to Congress, as follows: " THE OFFICIAL REPORT. The 17th corps occupied Orangeburg and destroyed the railroad thence to and including the Congaree B.iver bridge. I The left wing meanwhile was moving to | ward Columbia by the nearest road. The right wing now directed its march toward Columbia, and after dome opposi? tion at Thomas's "Creek and Congaree Creek, where the enemy waii found well entrenched, arrived at a point opposite the city on 16th February. The bridges over the Saluda, Broad and Congaree Rivers were all found to have been burned. A pontoon bridge was (built at the. Saluda River bridge, near., the . -factory, and a portion of the 15th corps crossed during the night. A left wing pontoon bridge was built over the Saluda at Zion Church, .nine and a half miles above Columbia, and some forces crossed. On the 17th a pon? toon bridge was built just above the ruins of the former bridge over Broad River, three miles above Columbia, and the right wing crossed to the north bank and occupied the city, the greater part of which waa burnt during the night. Many reasons are given for this flagrant violation of Gen. Sherman'n orders. It was principally due to the fact that the citizens gave liquor to the tro6ps until they were crazily drunk and beyond the control of the officers. The presence of a large number of escaped prisoners ex? cited the intoxicated soldiers to the first acts of violence, after which they could not be restrained. GEN. WHEELER DEFENDS HIS OLD COM? MAND. "I don't think I. exaggerate," said Gen. Wheeler, "when I say that my com? mand was one of the best, if not the best, body of troops in the Confederacy. The impression that they were lawless and undisciplined got about in this way: When. Sherman started for Savannah Beauregard telegraphed to me to drive off all stock found within ten miles of Sherman's line of march un either side. This order gave free scope to stragglers, deserters from the Confederate armies and lawless people generally. At that Urne there were upwards ox a hundred thousand men absent without leave from tho confederate armies, though very few ?not two hundred?from my command. These stragglers?not my men?with forged copies of the order in their pos? session, robbed and destroyed in all direc? tions. It was because the depredations were done under forged orders purporting to have.been issued by me that the blame fell upon my men. But the papers were forged and the wrong doers were not of my command. I knew my command .well. I was with them constantly, whether in camp, on the march, or in action, and I assert that there uover was, and never can be, a bravor or a better 1 body of men." ? She: "I dou't like my bonnet now that I've got it. It does'nt match my hair at all. He: "You ought to have thought, of that before you bought it." She: "My bonnet ?" ? He: "No, your hair." ? A Man in New York committed suioidc by pushiug a handkerchief down1 his tbroRt With a long ruler. P^Hi^iilOT^?oirifa^persona reaT little else than newspapers, and repeat the form of expression found there. One of these inaccurracies continually re? peated by a portion of the press is the employment of "marital" in the sense of "matrimonial." Everybody knows, or ought to know, that marital means what pertains to husbands only, not to a wife, or to conjugal relation. It is but three or four years sinco this abuse of the term arose. Mrs. Kate Chase was one of the first to so employ it in a card she pub? lished about her trouble with her hus? band, Colonel Sprague, and many report? ers were apparently charmed with it per? haps because it was wrong. Another word almost as often misused, is winsome, which often misleads uncultured folk into the notion that it signifies winning, or its equivalent. It is derived from an Anglo-Saxon word meaning joy, its syn? onym being gay, cheerful, light hearted. Memorize has been so constantly spoken and printed as a brief way of saying commit to memory that latest editions of both Webster and Worcester give it in this sense. This is how custom gets the better of philology. Memorize primarily signifies the cause to be remembered to record; but this significance will doubt? less now be lost. There is no end of counterfeit words and phrases which half educated writers for the press have put into circulation, and which are accepted by unreflecting as genuine, because they bear the journalistic stamp. Such stamp is so very untrustworthy. That what is called newspaper English has come into direct opposition with good English, and the two are diverging more and more. Much of tbe newspaper English of the day is a kind of dialect or gibberish which may require a glossary at some future time to render intelligible to those taught to speak pure English.?New York Commercial Advertiser. Cheap Lightning Rods. A correspondent at Johnston, Edge* field County, reports the fact that two dwelling-houses in that town, both of which wore "protected" by insulated lightning rods, have been recently struck by lightning, and asks for information whether an insulated or non-insulated rod is the safer ? There is no question, we believe, that a rod must be perfectly insulated in order to protect the building to which it is at? tached. Otherwise the electric fluid is not only attracted to tbe bouse, but is likely to be led into it by the supports of the rod, thus exposing the inmates to the very danger they seek to avoid. A careful examination of the rods on the two houses that were struck at John? ston is of course necessary to the forma? tion of a judgment in this case. If it should show that the rods were not com? pletely insulated/ the suspicion that now attaches to them -would of course be re? moved, since tbe whole question turns upon this supposed fact. Besides being insulated, however, it is necessary that a rod shall be properly adjusted to the building; shall project to a certain height above it; shall be of the proper material and conductive capacity; and, all these points being assured, that its lower extremity shall be led to a sufficient depth to reach a stratum of always moist soil. A frequent cause of the failure of lightning rods in the country to perform their proper office, is that they are of A<eap and of course, poor material, in the first instance, and are put up by men who are ignorant of the first principles of their business. _, . Our correspondent, or his friends who are interested in warding off stray thun? derbolts, would do well to look sharply into all these particulars.?News arid Courier. Hereditary Friendship. Senator Butler,' of South Carolina, .and Senator Don Cameron are very close per? sonal friends, and may be seen together almost any evening. The friendship is hereditary, descending from Butler's uncle and Cameron's father, who were both United States Senators. Simon Cameron's election wad contested on one occasion, and it was likely tobe invali? dated but for the efforts and the vote of Uucle Butler, who was then a member of the Committee on Privileges and Elec? tions. Simon Cameron never forgot the service then done, and longed in some way to repay it. One day Mr. Butler (the present Senator) happened'to be at the Capitol on .a little matter of business, when he chanced to run across old Sena? tor Cameron. "Butler, Butler," the Senator repeated, "are you any relative to Senator Butler, of South Carolina?" "A nephew, sir." "A nephew of Senator Butler! Well can I do anything for you my boy ?" "The House" said the young man, "has just cast an adverse vote on a bill to remove some political disabilities under which I am at present laboring. You could not do anything better than make the House reverse its vote." Mr. Butler had no idea that such a thiug could be done, but in less than five min? utes the House had reversed its vote, and. by the exertion of Simon Cameron, of Pennsylvania, tbe political disabilities of the present Senator from South AJarb* lina were removed.? Woshington Post, July 19. Praise The Boy. It often costs ono quite a Btrugglc to do his simple duty; and when one does his simple duty in spite of his temptations to do differently, he deserves credit for his doing.. One has no need to live long in this world before finding out this truth. A bright little boy about two and a half ears old recently showed that he appre ended it. Ho was on the eve of doing something that was very tempting to him. "No, my son; you musn't do that," said his father. The little fellow looked as if he would like to do it in spite of his father's prohi? bition ; but he triumphed over his incli? nation, and anBwerod resolutely: "All right, papa; I won't do it," There was no issue there, and tbe fath? er turned to somethng else. The boy waited a minute, and then said, in a tone of surprised inquiry: "Papa, why don't you tell me, 'that's a good boy ?' " The father accepted the suggestion, and commended his son accordingly. A just recognition of a child:s well doing is a parent's duty, even though the child's well-doing ought not to hinge on such a recognition. And as with little folks, so with larger ones. Just commendation is every one's duty. Even our Lord Him? self has promised to say, "Well done" to every over one of His who does well.? Sunay School Times. Mr. Lincoln's Ingenuity. In 1864 he was greatly bothered by the peace-at-any-price men from the North. There was especially one old fellow from Massachusetts, very bland and wholly bald, who was the thorn in the presiden? tial flesh. Mr. Lincoln managed to get rid of him and his Quaker appeals by one device or another, till his ingenuity was severely taxed. One day, when the angel of mercy had been boring him about half an hour, to tbe delay of im? portant business, the president suddenly rose, walked to a closet and took a large bottle from it. "Did you ever try this for baldness?" bo asked exhibiting tho bottle for his visitor's inspection. The visitor admitted that he never had. Mr. Lincoln summoned a servant, had tbe bottle wrapped up and gave it to the astonished philanthropist with the in? junction : "Now go and rub some of that on your head. Persevere; keep it up. They say 'twill make tho hair grow. Come back in about three months and report." Tho grieved disciple of Pcnn found himself out the door with the hair restor? er under his arm before he had time to fairly reflect. ?

Ten years ago it was proud of its one railroad?the Texas Pacific. Now it boasts of seven and is willing to extend a welcome to as many more railways as desire to come.

Ruuniug Down Himself. In a certain town there lived twim brothers, whom we call John and Wil? liam, who so closely resemble each other that their nearest friends, even their wives, often find it difficult to distinguish them. One day William went into a store to make some purchases, and, chancing to look out of the window, a pane of which had been broken and its place supplied with a looking glass, cried out,? "O, there goes brother John; I must go see him," and hastening into the street, found, to his surprise, that "brother John" had disappeared. He returned to the counter to finish his purchases, when, glancing toward the window, he saw, as he thought, his broth? er again. "I'll have you now. old fellow," he said, and darted toward the door, to the amusement of many who were in the store, and by this time saw the joke. Of course no John was to be seen. Upon re-entering the store he went to the window, ana to his diegust discovctod the mirror. "Sold!" he exclaimed, "boys, don't tell it; I'd not have ray wife know it for any thing." The story was too good to be kept, and ere night many were asking him if he had found his "brother John." ?

Numerous cleverly concocted certificates are forced upon the unsus? pecting, purporting to havo "snatched from the grave" some poor victim of blood poison or other disease, when to our knowledge the ideutical persons lay groaning in agony while the public were reading of their remarkable recovery.
