WASHINGTON, August 26.-General
Grant instructs Generals Meade,
Thomas and Buchanan, relative to
the use of troops in aid of the civil
authorities, as follows: "The obliga?
tions of the Federal military officers
and soldiers, in common with the
citizens, require them to obey the
summons of the marshal or sheriff,
must be held subordinate to their
paramount duty as members of a
permanent military body. Hence the
troops can act only in their proper
organized capacity, under their own
officers, and in obedience to the im?
mediate orders of these officers. Tho
officer commanding troops summon?
ed to the aid of a marshal or sheriff,
must also judge for himself, and upon
his own official responsibility, whether
the service required of him is lawful
and necessary, and compatible with
tho proper dischargo of his ordinary
military duties, and must limit his
action absolutely to tho proper aid in
tho exeoution of the lawful precept
exhibited to him by the marshal or
sheriff."

A poor white man, named James
D. Thomas, was brutally murdered
by two negroes, named Wallace and
Graham, in Williamsburg District, a
few days ago. The body was sunk
in a creek. The murderers havo
been arrested.
v. "it is false-he never robbed you
be w?s innocent; oh, Luke Bradley,
give him to me again, let me see him
once more, for now he must be grown
to manhood, and he was like to me
RH child could be; oh, if you but
knew what it is to yearn for a child
?otr"have not Been for years, and
now' not what may be its fate, you
?ould not have it in your heart to
refuse me."
MN. Bradley buried her faco in
her hands and turned nwuy; the re?
flection of something painfully recur?
ring to her. Her husband seemed
moved, for he answered, in a husky
voice:
'.'Woman, woman, I have not your
child."
"But you took him from me, and
that which you have taken, ye can
give back."
"Ob, Luke, let the woman have
her child, for sho must deeply feel its
ioss."
"Mary, if it were in my power, she
should not ask in vain."
"Oh, man, man, you eau give him
to me, if you would; why could not
his tender years save him from your
ruthless laws? for ho was scarcely
more than eight years old, and barely
knew right from wrong; ho was not a
fit subject for vongeance, even had
he done what you alleged against
him, and which I swear he did not."
"The case was clear against him,
but I thought not his senteuce would
have been so severe."
"What matters your thoughts
when they were too lute; you should
have stayed your hand, and forborne
to press against one so young. Did
you not think of the mother's an?
guish, when you toro from her her
child? No, j ou know not-you cared
not, for her feelings, for she was a
despised thing, an outcast, a house- ?
less wanderer; and yet she loved ber
child more than those of gentler
blood, for sho had borne und watched
it amidst sufferings and sorrow ye
dreamt not of; it was to her a daily,
hourly solace; and, oh! how fondly
sho did look ut it in its growth, and
think how like it was to herself; the
same stamp of countenance and .com?
plexion, the same raven-hair, the
samo dark eyes, all, all her very
counterpart, and yet you tore him
from her arms, sent him far away,
aud, from that time, she has not
looked upon him again. In that
hour, Luke Bradley, I prayed to
curse you-to wither up your heart's
glad feelings-and to place grief and
sorrow in their stead-it has come to
pass. Now, if you will give me back
my boy, I will pray again-my
prayer may be li.' 'cued to-you may
forget your sorrow, and be happy
again. Luke Bradley, will you give
me back my boy?"
"Woman, woman, I nm troubled
for you; aud, were it iu my power,
would do as you wish."
"It is in your power-."
"Would it were so, you should not
suffer longer."
"Tell me, my good woman," said
Mrs. Bradley, "is that your child?"
"She is."
"I have looked long at her, and
yet she bears no traces of thine?"
"Then, she is like her father."
"How know I that?"
"Because you have my word for it,
which is all you ever can have."
"Woman, I grieve to see ono like
her brought up in thy wild way of life;
I feel for her interest; why, I know
not-but still I do feel drawn towards
her, and if you will consent that she
shall stay with me, sho shall be cared
for, aa kindly even as you could
wish."
"Why should 1} part with my
child?"
"You shall have money!"
"Can gold wipo out the ties of
flesh and blood? or do you think,
because you aro rich aud powerful,
you can buy the affections of a mo?
ther for her child?"
"Have you no wish to see her well
placed in tho world, beyond the
chance of want?"
"She is happy as she is, aud covets
not more."
"Tell me, girl, would you stay with
me?"
"Mv mother has been ever kind to
me." *
"And so will I."
"But not a mother."
"Yes, all a mother can be."
"Lady, there is a tie thal links us
in our wild way of lifo ye know not
of; it is moro than the affection ye
bear towards your children, because
"Girl! I have no children."
"Then lady, you know not what a
mother feels for her child."
"Ohl that I had never known it;
aud I might have been spared long
years of suffering."
"I am sorry, lady, your child is
dead, for you speak kindly, and I
think must have grieved much at its
death."
"Alas! alas! she did not die!"
"And yet, you mourn for her,
lady."
I "Oh, my poor Jane! you were the
i sweetest child that ever a mother's
eyes looked upon; and now, oh!
I heavens, what may be your loti I
cannot bear the thought."
"Lady," said Thamar, "since you
feel thus for the loss of yonr child,
think with pity upon me; plead for
me with your husband to give me
back my poor boy, and I will pray,
after our form, that your child may
'?.?M*? j,.,, 'i^j; ?U5.
nifty bo more in my beseeching than
in thiue-you may again bo happy;,
plead ior me, lady, plead for mel ,
'.Woman, I will do all for yon I
can."
"Then, lady, I will bless yon."
"You will not leave your child
with me."
"She is nil that calls mo mother."
"Think of what yon refuse."
4iThink, lady, of my lonoly wan?
derings without her I love. How
sad all things will be to me, wanting
her I have so long eherished-what
a blank life will then be to me!"
"But you can remain near her;
yon shall want for nothing."
"Lady, the wild world is my home,
and tho shelter of a house suits mc
not; we have our habits, as yon have
yours; aud wo cannot break from
them, and assume others, more than
you can reconcile yourself to ours
it cannot be. Como, Naomi, let ut
to our tents, for Jabeth awaits UH.
ljady, we shall soon meet again, nue1
the time may ooma that I shall speal
to thee more of what you would wist
to hear-I shall not forget you mean
me kindly."
Naomi uud her mother turnet
away, and slowly took the road to
wards their euoampment, Thama
resuming her former silence, whicl
WHS not broken till they arrived at
the tents.
Thnniar had caused much wonde
to her daughter, by pleading ti
Bradley for her son ; it was the firs
timo Naomi had ever heard there hat
been another of her race who calle?
Thamar mother, and she now fount
some clue, though an imperfect ouc
to the bitter hatred borne toward
tho name of Bradley; but, whilst sh
could, iu some degree, perceive th
reasou of her mother's feelings, thor
was much she could not understand
nor could she imagine why sheba
thus been kept in iguorauco of eil
cumstances so ijwrly relating to hei
self.
The cause of Thamar's bittt
hatred has beeu partly explained, bi
it will be better understood by
brief sketch of the object of ht
hostility.
Mr. Bradley was u gentleman <
great wealth, living near Ashbnri
in Derbyshire, and the mansion i
which ho resided had passed fro
father to sou for tuauy generation
they were looked upon as one of ri
oldest families in the County, in a
ditiou to their possessing consider
ble influence from the immen
landed property which they had bet
constantly increasing. The prese
possessor of the family property lu
married early in life, adding to L
vast wealth by so doing. Ho hi
the character of being somewh
proud and stern, arising, perhai
from the early iudulgiiueo of o
born to share so largely in the work
favors, but this was not appare
save to those who know him b
little, since it soon wore off by in
macy. He was devotedly attach
to his wife, who returned his aff<
tion to the utmost, and life seem
to promise all that happiness coi
bestow.
Mr. Bradley had hoped that 1
eldest child should prove a son, I
it was willed otherwise, it was a g
though this was some disuppointnn
to his hopes, he loved it with ali I
affection a father could feel for
first aud only child, and watchei
with tho sumo anxious solicitude
its mother; it was a sure passport
his good graces for any one to remi
how like tho child was to him, foi
truth it did give early tokens
future resemblance. At times
might regret for a moment tba
had not been a boy, but this s<
passed away, and he forgot in
infaut playfulness of his pretty J;
that he had ever had wished it ot
than it was. When the child
about two years old, it chanced t
some gypsies had fixed their encai
ment in Dove Dale, not far from
residence of Mr. Bradley; for a t
thoy were harmless enough, and
lowed to remain in peace, but t
soon wore away, and tho fara
began to complain loudly of tho
of poultry aud other trilles about
farm-yards, which were believed
fiud their way into tho iron kettle
tho wanderers, and whoso absei
therefore, was considered as \
desirable. The gentry, too, be
to find fault, in concert with t
tenants, as they missed sundry i
cles in the shape of plate, and thi
of value that were portable, ye
cleverly was it managed, that
delinquent always contrived to v,\
detection, until ono unlucky ra
of a boy was found trotting tow
tho tents with something beuoatli
jacket, which ho strovo to con<
and, on being searched, part of
coutouts of Mr. Bradley's plate c
wus found upon him.
As this was tho only ono they i
enabled to catch under any si
cious circumstances, it was di
mined to mako him nn exampl
the rest; in vain the mother besoi
Mr. Bradley to spare her child
not appear ngaiust him; but h
plied that tho nuisance had bec
so great that some one must bo
ished. The mother replied, thai
child had been the dupe of t
older party, and was too yonn
know the consequence of an
which she was even sure he had
coin -.itted, though it might i
against him.
The boy, however, was tried,
Bracey appeartp^a^?at'jiimj ?Dd
sentenced to ou transported for life,
H private intimation being at the
time conveyed to Mr. Bradley that,
ia consequence of his tender years,,
the sentence would not bo rigorously
enforced, but he would be Bepnrated
from his tribe, taught 8ome honest
trade, aud if his conduct merited it
at a future day,.receive a pardon.
The mother considered Mr. Brad?
ley as the author of her misery, and
vowed tho moat bitter vengeance
ugaiust him, which, however, was
little heeded. The gypsies uluiual
immediately afterwards removed
from the neighborhood, and nothing
further was heard bf them.
The circumstance was altogether
forgotten, for, in fact, it had been
scarcely thought of, save by tho
mother, and tho farmers nguiu felt
that their poultry yards were safe
from the intruders.
Mrs. Bradley was, ono summer's
day, shortly after this, playing with
her child on the lawn before tho
house, looking at it with a mother's
fondness, as it tumbled upon tho
grass, when her attentiou was called
to something taking pluce in the
house, aud she left the child for a
few minutes to itself. On her re?
turn to the lawu, which was almost
immediately, to her great surprise,
tho little girl was no where to be
seen; she thought, at first, it might
have strayed into the plantations,
and tlie.se she cxnmiued in the most
rigid man uer j but without finding
the object of her search, and despite
the persevering aud almost unceasing
efforts that were made to discover
whither it could have wandered, no
cine could be found to afford the
least hope.
Rewards were offered by the dis?
tracted parents to those who could
give any information that might lead
to its discovery, but in vain, for no
one came to claim them, and all the
I endeavors of the servants and neigh
j hors, persevered in for mauj* days,
were fruitless, for the child was never
found.
Neither Mr. Bradley, nor his wife,
from that time ever regained their
usual state of mind, they had no
other children to reconcile them to
their loss, and were ever recurring to
their "pretty Jane," thinking wheth?
er it were dead or living, and, if
alive, what might be its fate. Tho
canse, or means, of its disappearance
remained altogether a mystery. Mr.
Bradley, in addition to his grief, at
1 finding himself childless, saw, with
sorrow, that his wife was ever accas
iug herself for the loss of her child,
ami but for her negligence, it might
still have been with her. It was in
vain he strove to console her, and
showed that she was not to blame; it
preyed daily and hourly on ber
spirits, and though she felt his kind?
ness in framing excuses, sho could
not forgive herself.
