Episode of tlie CItII War.
Mr. Charles E. Grogan, of the
Southern Society, was a lieutenant in
Mosby's command during the war. It
only requires a reference to the old
guerrilla chief or to the famous raids
in Loudon county to remind Mr. Gro?
gan of a story, and the story is always
worth listening to. A few nights ago
Mr. Grogan was asked by one of his
friends:
"Did Mosby over take any of the
plunder that was captured in those
raids?"
"No," he replied promptly, "he
never took a cent of it. I remember
one occasion when he made a raid on
a railroad train and captured $150,000.
The money was divided among .the
mcn,'Bhare and share alike, but Mosby
would not take a cent. Perhaps you
never heard the story." ?-.
Of course no one had ever heard it
in detail before, and Mr. Grogan, after
reflecting to recall the incidents, told
it as follows:
"The raid is known throughout the
South as the 'greenbackraid.' It was
near Duffield station on the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad, between'Baitimore
and Martinsburg. There were about I
sixty-five.of ..us, with Mosby himsclf.|
in command. "We took it into our
heads to ditch a train, thinking that
we'd find one full of yankees going to
the front. We hadn't the slightest
idea what kind of luck we were^
going to have what we would encoun?
ter.
"We selected a spot where the rail
?ad'ran between two steep banks.
There were two tracks there, and we
tore up one of them, I forget which.
Presently a train Came along on the
other track and passed us:" To take
no more chances we tore up'th'e other
track. Then "we hid ourselves at
the top of the embankment and wait?
ed. .
"Presently a train came along?I
think it was moving .westward?and
we all.got up and watched it. When
it came to the place where "the rails'
were torn up the engine quietly turned
over on her side and fell against the
embankment. The whole, tiling was
over in a few seconds without a. bit of
noise or fuss. Nobody was hurt ex?
cept the fireman, 'who was killed,
believe. The cars all - remained
standing.
"Our men at once went thorough the
cars and ordered everybody out.
There were a great many immigrants
on the train, and we had a hard time
explaining to them that we wanted
them to get out of the cars. We no?
ticed two men who seemed rather anx?
ious about their baggage. One had a
box and the other a carpetbag. We
relieved the gentlemen of their bur?
den, and to our great surprise we
found the bag and box full of green?
backs and treasury notes. It turned
out that the two men were paymasters
going to the front with money for the
army.
"When we got this money, Mosby
put it in my charge and told me to get
across the river with it as fast as I
could. Two men and myself 'immedi?
ately set oui.for Loudon county with
the money^ and rode hard all night. I
remember distinctly that one of the |
horses slipped, arid ttfe-rider ;was
thrown to the ground, scattering the
greenbacks he carried right and left.
remember, too, that the other man
and myself laughed, while he picked
up the money, and teased him. . t
"The next morning Mosby and the
others caught up with us, and we all
stopped under a tree and divided the
money. The money, I believe,
amounted to about $150,000. \ TVe
weren't very enthusiastic about it,
because we didri't know whether 3t
was good for anything or not. The
treasury notes were fresh from the
mint, and some of them bore coupons.
The men called it money with tails to
it. Mosby insisted on the money
being divided equally, but he did not
take a cent.
"I do not remember how many, pris?
oners we took. ./One of our.nien, J.
Monroe Hsakell, gave $50 to a major
whom he had captured. Some over
zealous guerrilla had relieved the ma?
jor of his overcoat, his pocketbook
and his small change."?New York

A Preacher Arrested.
Birmingham, Ala., March 12.?
Rev. A. M. Thompson, in charge of
the Methodist church at East Bir?
mingham, was arrested near the close
of his sermon Sunday morning by two
policemen in citizens' clothes, and
will be taken back to Jackson, Missis
sippi, where he will serve out a life
sentence imposed upon him five years
ago for the assassination of a brother
minister in his pulpit while preach?
ing to a large congregation.. The
cause of the killing was the appoint?
ment of the murdered man to the pas"
torate of Thompson. He was sent to
the penitentiary for life, but Boon
made his escape.
He came here about two years ago,
calling himself Rev. W. M. Thomp?
son, and assisted in quite a number of
revivals, proving himself an earnest
cxhorter and preacher. His congre?
gation was horrified at his arrest and
can hardly believe that the pastor is
guilty of the crime alleged. He is in
jail at present and will be taken to the
Mississippi penitentiary at once.

Preserving Appomattox fiellos.
Work has just been finished on a
project of unusual interest that was
undertaken by the war department
some months ago, involving the mark?
ing of the important spots at and
around the old Appomatox court
house, oonneoted with the surrender
of Lee to Grant in 1865. During the
early summer it was suggested to Sec?
retary Laniont by Kirkley, one of tho
members of the board having in charge
the publication of the records of the
rebellion, that it was now time to mark
these spots if it was ever to bo done,
as the landmarks are fast being oblit?
erated by the passage of years. The
secretary saw the importance of this,
and immediately gave orders to have
the idea carried out. Since then
Major Davis, the head of the board,
has been working hard, and has at
last succeeded in having all the points
of interest at Appomatox marked in a
j permanent manner.
This is done by means of cast-iron
I tablets that arc fastened to iron posts
j five feet long. They are sunk into the
ground a sufficient depth to secure
stability and bear the tablets, which
are about three feet long by two high,
in a slanting position, on a level with
the eye. The letters are two and a
quarter inches high, and stand out in
good relief so that they can be read
I some distance off. A contrast in black
and white paint gives them great legi?
bility.
The tablets start at the station
where the new court house is now
located. They are merely signboards
with arrows pointing in the direction
of the old court house, which stood
about three miles from the railroad.
The road that connects it with the
station is the bid Lynchb?rg turnpike,
and runs in a generally northern direc?
tion from the station j. The troops of
each side were encamped on both sides
of the road. The preliminary tablets
I merely direct the visitor to the court
j house.
About half way to the site of the
surrender is the first marking tablet,
announcing: "On this spot were es?
tablished the headquarters of Lieuten?
ant-General Ulysses S. Grant, U. S.
A., on the afternoon of April 9,1865."
The next in order along the road is
the most interesting, reading thus :
I "This tablet marks the site of the
house owned and occupied by Wilmer
McLean, in which General U. S.
Grant, and General Robert E. Lee, C.
S. A., met and agreed upon the terms
of surrender of the Army of Northern
Virginia, on -the afternoon of Sunday,
April 1,1865."
A few rods further up the road the
visitor comes upon the site of the old
court house, the story of which is told
in the third tablet thus: "Here stood
Appomatox court house; built 1842;
burned 1892." The ruins of the old
building are still to be seen.
On the morning following the meet?
ing between the generals in the Mc?
Lean house, both of them started out
from their headquarters aud rode on
horseback down the side of the road,
which was very muddy, for the pur?
pose of a further interview. They
met about half way at a spot, a little
north of the court house, on the west
side of the road. Here is erected a
tablet to this effect: "On this spot
.'Lieutenant-General Ulysses S. Grant,
U. SJ?., andjQjeneral Robert b. Lee,
C.' S/A'i, met on the morning of April
10, 1865."
Then the lines of both sides are
marked. The line of Union outposts
on the morning of Sunday, April 9,
crossed the roan just beyond the meet?
ing place, and that of the Confederate
outposts is noted about 200 yards fur?
ther on.
The surrender was consummated by
- the Confederate troops marching down
toward the south from their encamp?
ment up the road, and passing in front
of a line formed by the first division
of the fifth corps of the Union army.
As the road had been terribly cut up
by the wheels of the artillery, and was
a sea of mud, the troops were drawn
up on the east side of the road, in the
fie id, facing west, so that the left flank
was to the south'. Thei Confederates
filed through the space between the
line and the road and stacked arms
there. At a point just in front of
Mr. Peers's house, and almost across
the road from the meeting place of the
two generals, is a tablet, as follows :
"Near this point was established the
left flank of the first division of the
fifth corps, Army of the Potomac, on
the morning of April 11, 1865, to re?
ceive the surrender of the arms of the
Army of Northern Virginia."
A similar tablet marking the loca?
tion of the right flank of the division
is planted about 200 yards farther
north.
The interesting question of the spot
from which was fired the last shot of
this remarkable campaign is settled by
the location of a tablet at a point east
from the road, about a hundred yards
distant, and half as far behind the
Peers house, which reads: "From
this spot was fired the last shot from
the artillery of the Army of Northern
Virginia, on the morning of April 9,
1865."
Immediately after the surrender,
the famous apple tree that figured so
largely in the transaction was dug up
by soldiers who saw its immense value
as a relic. They went down several
feet in order secure the roots intact.
The site of this tree is, therefore, all
that can be marked to-day. It stood
a few yards west of the road, and 400
yards or so north of the courthouse.
The tablet that has been placed there
bears this inscription : "Near this
spot stood the apple tree under which
General Robert E. Lee rested while
waiting the return of a flag of truce
sent by him to General U. S. Grant,
on the morning of April 9, 1865."?

Was Tempted to Become a Cannibal.
A real fine old English gentleman
was Dr. Thomas Gunton, who, while
confabbing with a number of friends
in a prominent resort, recently, rela?
ted a number of interesting experiences
in his caroer. His later years have
been passed looking out for sick peo?
ple in the Canadian wilds, but his
younger days were marked with activ?
ity and no little advonturo.
"What do you regard as about the
most perilous position you were
ever in doctor?" asked ono of his
friends.
"Y?rell," musingly replied the doc?
tor, "I am sure that a circumstance
that happened when, as a-young man,
I had the double office of supercargo
and surgeon of an English trading
vessel on tho African coast, left
a deeper and more painful impression
on my mind than any other event in my
life.
His listeners gathered somewhat
closer and the doctor went on:
"Our captain and the ship's com?
pany generally were pretty well ac?
quainted with the natives, and various
kings and priests and other men in
authority would frequently come
aboard to get a bite of salt pork, and
once in a while a glass of rum, etc.,
so it was not considered dangerous to
go ashore and make little excursions
into the interior. The natives were
cannibals, but they knew who to eat,
and interest for their personal welfare
prevented their mouths watering for
the blood of an Englishman. I went
ashore one day with the mate, who
got the notion into his head that he
wanted to kill two or three gorgeously
plumaged birds, cure and dress their
wing feathers and take them home to
his sweetheart. We got separated in
the jungle, and I became lost. I had
left my pocket compass aboard the
ship and to save my life I could not
locate myself. ^Vell, I was in that
forest for two days without a thing to
eat before I was lucky enough to strike
the coast, from which I had at no time
been three miles distant. I was
starving. I think for the first time
in my life I realized, what hunger
was."
Here the doctor made a grimace.
"Boys," he said, "as I got near the
coast my nostrils met a most savory
odor. It increased my torment of
hunger tenfold, while my heart rejoic?
ed at the prospect of food; but to my
horror and fright, I walked right into
a group of negroes boiling a man. The
remembrance of the temptation offered
me clings to me yet. Weak as I was,
however, I ran from the place lest I,
too, should become a cannibal. If I
remained with those niggers in my
starved condition I should have par?
taken of their hell Lroth. But I was
safe, for a party from the ship soon
found me and when I saw them I faint?
ed dead.
"That terrible temptation," the
doctor continued, "was the one event
of all my career that makes me gloomy
whenever I think of it? and I, almost
always think of it."?Washington
Post.
Anecdote of General Folk.
A good story is told of Bishop (then
lieutenant-general) Polk of the Con?
federate army and another general,
whom we will call ''Blank," who now
resides in Alabama :
During the Georgia campaign, and
not long before General Polk was
killed at Pine Mountain, he requested
General Blank to accompany him to a
hill in front of the lines which com?
manded an excellent view of the posi?
tion of the opposing Federal forces.
The figures of the two officers, out?
lined upon the sky as. they stood upon
this eminence, offered a tempting
mark for some Federal gunners, and
in a few moments both lay on the
ground, stunned and senseless from
the ejfcct of Federal shells. The for?
tunes of war had brought together a
most distinguished churchman, and
one of the bravest and most trusted of
Forrest's officers. The latter, how?
ever, was not at the time noted for ex?
treme piety, but was. rather given to
the use of vigorous language and for?
cible expletives, which fact the good
bishop knew and regretted ; he also
knew that his piesent companion was
one of the very best and bravest men
in the Confederate service.
The two offioers lay stunned for sev?
eral minutes. General Blank was the
first to recover. Looking about him
in a dazed way he soon discovered the
burly form of his companion, who was
breathing heavily, but evidently com?
ing around alright. In afew moments
he heard General Polk mutter:
"0 Lord ! where am I, where am
I?"
General Blank, keenly alive to a
sense of grim humor, whispered gent
ly:
"In hell, general."
"Impossible," murmured the semi?
conscious Polk. "Who is itthat.tells
me so ?"'
"It is I?General Blank," solemnly
responded that practical joker.
"0 Lord," groaned the good bishop,
"have mercy on me ! If Blank is here
I know it must be true I"

An Old Prescriptions
Tho crowd had gathered about a
horse and buggy in the middle of the
street. The horse had balked.
"Tie a string around his ear," said
one of the bystanders. "It gives him
something else to think of. I never
knew it to fail."
A string was produced and wound
tightly round one of the animal's ears.
It had no effect.
"Blindfold him," suggestod an?
other.
A bandage was tied over his eyes
and an effort mado to start him.
Same result.
"Back him."
"He won't back," said the exasper?
ated owner. "I tried that."
"Try him with an ear of corn."
The ear of corn failod to move the
obstinate horse.
"I'll see if I can't persuade him
some other way," said the exasper?
ated owner of the animal.
He took a whip and belabored the
beast with it till somebody threatened
to have him arrested.
Then he kicked him awhile.
All in vain.
Finally a benevolont-looking old
gentleman forced his way through the
crowd and said:
"I have seen a great many balky
horses started by building a fire under
them. Can you get some straw or
shavings ?"
A boy was sent to a neighboring fur?
niture store for some excelsior. He
came back presently with a huge arm?
ful. It was placed on the ground un?
der the horse and a lighted match
touched to it.
As the first feeble flame rose from
it and the smoke began to curl about
his legs the horse unbent a little. He
turned his head, took a calm survey of
the situation, and when the combusti?
ble stuff burst into a big blaze he
moved forward about six feet, in full
possession of his faculties, and with?
out any unnecessary haste, and stop?
ped again.
And the elegant buggy was damaged
$25 worth by the flames before it oc?
curred to anybody to scatter the blaz?
ing stuff.
And then an old colored man in a
faded suit of second-hand clothes and
a hat with half the brim gone went out
and spoke kindly to the high-spirited
animal, rubbed his nose, patted him on
the neck, climbed into the damaged
buggy, and said, "Grit along, sonny."
And the horse moved off at a brisk
trot, with head high in the air.?Chi?

Au Indian Legend.
Wayceoss, Ga., March 1.?There
are many interesting Indian relics and
curious Indian mounds in South Geor?
gia. Many of the mounds, which for?
merly contained relics, have been rob?
bed of their treasures during the last
few years. "The Chief's Mound,"
or "Mound of the Great Spirit," said
to be situated near the western boun?
dary of the Okefinokce swamp, is the
largest in this section. It is said to
have been erected by a good old Semi
nolc chief in ancient times. In the
mound, according to tradition, there
is a vault where the chief's daughter
was buried. Concerning the chief's
daughter, a legend says, that she was
very beautiful, and was loved by the
young chief of a neighboring tribe.
They were to be married on a certain
day, but the bridegroom did not come,
and the chief's daughter grieved very
much. Shortly afterward intelligence
was received of the death of the
young chief. He was on the wav to
the wedding, and was waylaid and
murdered by jealous rivals. The news
was a severe shock to the young girl,
and she grieved herself to death.
The old chief built a huge mound
and had his daughter's body embalm?
ed and placed in the mound. The
legend says that on the night after the
interment of the chief's daughter, the
mound was visited by the Great Spirit.
He was heard to lanieut the death of the
young woman. When he departed, he
dropped a tear at the foot of the
mound, and an oak tree grew where
it fell to a mammoth size and is still
alive.

, "Richard, you must not lay the
blame on the cat of all the wick?
edness you are guilty of in this house.''
Not long after one of these upbraid
ings, in Sunday school, his teacher
asked Richard the question, apropos
the devil's power on earth:.
"Who is responsible for the wick?
edness of this world?"
It was with a mixture of a contrite

? An Alleghany household was
discussing George Washington when
that patriot's birthday came around,
and the small boy of the family asked :
"Who was George Washington ?"
"He was a man who never told a lie,"
replied the mamma, impressively.
"After a period of silent wonder, the
questioner asked: "Couldn't he talk?"
? ''What is a skeleton ? Can you
tell me, children?" The infant class
looked troubled. Their ideas on the
subjeot were of the most vague de?
scription, and, they seemed to think,
hardly worth mentioning. The ques?
tion passed down the class, almost to
the very foot, meeting only a blank
look or a shake of the head, until at
laut the smallest tot of all ventured a
reply: "Pleathe, mith, it ith a man
without any meat on it."
