Although neither a physu'bui nor a •clergyman I wish to corroborate the yiews of the physicians coutradioting Key. Dr. Epworth under the heading, “What Is Death?’’ in your Sunduy i«uo. As a Fetlernl soldier, May 81, 1S02,1 was one of those who fought against (V surprise of General Johnston, at the time commander of the Confed erate army, at Fair Oa^s. The sur- jirise was made ftt noontime, while •our boys were eating lunch. 1 remem- far one soldier Mug struck in a vital |»rt and killed while leaning upright against a tree in the act of carrying a flapjack to his month, remaining after death iu precisely the same position. TVhen I saw him standing there I mis took him for a live man, especially as , lie seemed to me intent only on eating l»is flapjack, but the illusion was dis-. lulled when touching him, beesuse as ,an officer 1 wanted 'him to join his com- :' ^ My own personal experience in tho snatter confirms the physicians’ also. The 80th of April, 1880, a fire was rag ing in my factcvv in San Francisco. By pome tneahaT 1 was about 150 feet from the main entrance in the bnrning build ing when, to in jr disraily, I beheld the Are story’ wall topple over mo through a ikylight Passively 1 lowered my head, ' thinking only of my coming death and wishing it would be swift. In less than p second thousands of bricks fell an me ponnding like a big drumstick beating oh a big bass drum. I remember a crash, then nothing, but when 1 came to. ' my senses 1 was wedged in between heavy timbers, the upper part of my body only being free. About a dozen.steps back of me was a_ stranger to me who hsd not received a j scratch, but ascertaining that my leg |. was broken, and also my utter inability fo save myself, he crawled over to me and attemi>ted to pull me out of my ter rible situation. But all his efforts only increased my Buffering, and as 1 saw the flame* come up 1 entreated him to leave me to my fate and try to save himself. \ Finally be crawled away, promising, - however, to return with help and axes. 2 must have been bewildered, for no act of ray past life camp to toy memory, but suddenly thinking of my small, moth er icas children 1 shunted for help, whts- thug at intervals through my fingers. Some firemen mast have heard, for , , presently there wore eeveral streams of i i owly burning fwea, wboM ml water poured on me. 1 th >n realized my danger, yet 1. who had never gone into a battle withont a pong, felt none whatever while in that deathtrap. The water and smoke combined mast have asphyxiated me, for when my stranger returned leading a brave party of fire men and policemen 1 laid as one dead. Believing me dead, and being iu a very dangerous position, they cut away part of the timbers and rudely bat safely passed me over the debris in the street A deafening shout from an iimnciua throng which had witnessed the gallant teeone, streams of cold water and fresh air revived me, and 1 begged of them to be careful with ray limbs, which were dangling from my body. After many weeks of suffering the physicians decided to break ray leg a*rain, but being unable to do it well while I had my senses they decided to thlurofonn me. Being subject to heart disease 1 objected, but the matter being urgent I finally consented to take the BMMfheUc. Fully convinced, however, ibat 1 should die under its influence, but knowing that cither way 1 would have to die, 1 agreed to take the only chance of Hfe 1 had and laid myself resignedly on my back; yet, although convinced that my last hour had come, 1 had not the slightest recollection of my former deeds. As I heard tho physicians’ whis pers gradually lost in the distance 1 was only wondering what would como next. • i recovered, however; but, breaking my leg a third time on account of some adhesions in my knee, it was decided that 1 should undergo another operation, which necessitated the use of aumethet- ica again. . This time the physicians thought 1 wa< a goner sure, for it took them nearly two hours to revive .me; yet, although certain of my lust hour, 1 could not recall my i>aet life, and in neither case did I fear death when 1 had tqnarely to face it ‘ in each instance the passing away was nr painless, while iu the fire suffocation came almost unconsciously, while al most the same sensation came in tho other cases. In the case of the soldier at Fair Oaks (Sevc i Pines) a certain time must have elapsed between his decease and my notice of him, yet heaven or bades did not seem to bother him; his flapjack seemed to be what be wanted— bis eyes wero on it and hi* mouth was open ready to receive it. Jn my own case 1 could claim to have died three times within a year, yet 1 de not think 1 bad any other but a sensation of rest. Dr. Epwortb, in his assertion also that either a look of horror or beatitude overspreads a deceased person’s face, aeems to forget that the Scriptures teach us that the soul leaves our terrestri;d envelope at onco on dissolution; hence the body cannot show what reception the soul had on the other side of the Btyx,—An Interested Reader in New Turk Press. Th* Ferwot^w ltol*h«r of th« 8m^ Ba4 • Fanhion of Getting Hlmtelf Cp In • Uldeoma and Repnlulvo Manner—Story •f HU SuercMful Voyage*. Pamlico sound, now tlio haven of the storm tossed mariner and the home of peaceful industry, was once the theater Of far different scenes. In the beginning of the last century its placent waters re flected a flag which struck terror to thousands of hearts amL paralyze<rtho commerce of the New World; the thick ly clustering vives and luxuriant growths fringing its shores concealed, like the original Eden, a hiding devil, the foe of God and man—Blackboard, the pirate. From a strange tendency of human na ture the life pf the pirate possesses a fas cinating interest, not only for the small boy who devours the pages of his half dime yellow back novel, but also for the reader of stronger judgment and better taste. Indeed some of the greatest writers have been unable to resist the fascinations of this wide and tempting field. Sir Walter Scott, Marryattand Cooper thought it not unworthy their mighty petis, and the genius of Byron attained me of its highest flights in the doscrip- rion of the prisoner Conrad in the lonely turret, baring his bosom to the midnight storm and defying the lightning of of fended heaven to transfix him. Of all this nnholy brood Blackboard was facile princeps, As Milton says of sntan, “By merit raised to that bad eminence.* It was an Arabic tradition, relative to the great unknowfl Atlantic that the gnarled and bony hand of the devil rose from out the waves of the sea of dark ness to seize the presnmptnons mariner, and in his diabolic career Blackboard seemed to be the impersonation of this mystic monster. Perhaps a greater de mon never prowled the seas or walked the earth in human form. Even in personal appearance he was hideous and repulsive, nature having stamped him both as a physical and moral monster. 'The name by which be was known throughout the world was derived from a singular circumstance, which illustrates his savage ferocity. His naturally dork and forbidding face was covered almost to his fierce, sensu ous eyes with a shaggy block beard, reaching below the waist This hirsute adornment, of^yhich he was very proud, and which he cultivated with sedulous care, he was accustomed to braid with ribbons and to twist about his ears until it stood forth like projecting horns. £nto the ends of these he stuck small, nhurou* fumes envsloped him In a lurid hue and rendered him a not unfitting representa tion of the Satanic ideal, whose character he eo successfully emulated. In time of action he slnng around his neck a scarf, into which were thrust three braces of pistols. Our readers, even those who are not endowed with Dantesque powers of imagination, and ssneclally our femi nine friends, can readily fancy the im pression such an aspect would create when met upon the lonely ocean, with the black flag fluttering above hi* bead and his merciless face lighting up with a gleam of demonlacaf joy as his help less victims walked the fatal plank. Tht* real name of this man was Ed ward Teach, and he was a native of Bris tol, England. Of Uis early career noth ing definite is known. He first emerged from obscurity ns a common sailor on board a privateer commanded by Cap tain Benjamin Hornigold, sailing from Jamaica and preying upon French com merce. * In that humble capacity he dis tinguished himself by his skill and com - age, which attracted the attention of his not over scrupulous commander, who soon intrust*! him with a prise he had captured. In 1717 these two ohoice spirits spread their sails from Provi dence (auspicious name!) for America, capturing en voyage three vessels laden with wine, flour and miscellaneous car goes, which they appropriated to their own use and urned the crews adrift. Th# s]>eed of their vessels being crip pled by foul bottoms, they cleaned tl)era upon tho coast of Virginia and went in quest of fresh booty. On this cruise they secured the most valuable prise yet “captured, a large French Guinea- man, richly freighted, bound for Mar tinique. At this juncture Hornigold’s avarice seems to have been satisfied, or more likely his heart failed him, for, taking the two vessels with which they originally sailed, he returned to Provi dence and availed himself of a pardon offered by the king to all pirates who should surrender'in & specified time. Teach, however, only emboldened by success, now assumed au independent character and began that career of crime which rendered his name so infatuous.— Richmond Times. Loula Fbillppo and the Qu<>*n.

The khodive, oddly enough for an ori ental, did not smoke, but always carried a cigarette case, and delighted in offer ing it and little presents of money to the English sentries placed on guard round his palace when first Cairo was occu pied by the British. The khedive was an early riser, and was in tho habit of walking in his gar den early in the morning. One day, returning from snch a walk, he was stopped by a sentry. “Yer can’t go in here, yer know,” said the man of war, with the Briton’s amia ble contempt for a fat little foreigner. “But I belong to the palace,” faltered the khedive, delighted. “Oh, do yer? Got a good place?” “Very good,” was the modest response, “Ah, yer look like it Nothin to do and plenty to eat. I wouldn’t mind serv ing your master.

MICHALSON IX Takes pleasure in Informing the public that on his recent visit to the North ha captured New York, New England and a big slice of the North-West. He wfnl supplied with the ammunition of gold, silver, greenbacks and* certified check* and merchants, manufacturer* and importers surrendered upon the first sum* mens, threw open their stocks and told Micbalson to help himself to all be wanr> ed and to pay them what he pleased. They were demoralized by the outflow of gold to Europe and welcomed Micbalson and his money as a hard pressed soldief cheers the comrades tvho come to his help and turns the tide of tho battle going against his flag. HVnic!tLa»lsoxL Helped himself liberally. The proofs that he did so are as plain as they can be« Tho t harleston bound steamers, the Atlantic Coast Line and the Richmond A Danville system are witnesses on his behalf. They are hnrrying Southward as fast as steam can turn their wiieeis the goods that he nominally bought. Kvefl now the first consignments are coming in and IMUciLalson. Invites the people to come from all the adjacenFPbuntry and neighboring towns buy all the goods they want so cheaply that they will forget all about the loaf prices of cotton, go home rejoicing with fresh courage to battle with bard timea. As a partial list of the good goods and great bargains that Micbalson has id store he asks attention to the following lew examples that show the comparUou of Northern and Southern prices: . $11,000 worth of New York clothing—Michalson’i price, $6,006. $7,000 worth of Boston Shoes. Slippers, Ac.—MichaIson’s.price, $4,750. $9,0(K) worth of Ladies Dress Good*—MichahoV* price, $5,000. $10,000 worth of Notions—Micbalson’* price, rtiJMXU $10,000 worth of Gent’s Furnishing Goods—MiehaDon’s price, 85,500. $3,000 worth of Furniture—Micbalson’* price, $2,1*10. $1,000 worth of Tin and Wood w’are—Michalspn’s price, $500. $10,000 worth of Bacon, Hams, Sugar, Ac.—Micbalson’* price, $6,000. , $2,500 worth of Canned Goods and Fancy Groceries —Mlchalsen** price,$1,000 ’ $5,000 worth of Axes, Hoes, Farm Hardware—Mlchalson’s price, $2,500. $1,000 worth of Table Cutlfcrjugjxd Crockery—Miehalsoft’s price, $500. $1,000 worth of Buggies and Wagfbis—Mlchalnon’s price. $750. These quotations arc offered as texts for thought, presented as sign beards te show the people the best road to better times. Micbalson has thousands >f goods* He has bargains that everybody needs and can afford. If you don’t see what you want ask for it. Micbalson has It, but does not promise to keep it always. Come soon and in a hurry before the cream is scooped. He hasn’t time or tongue enough to make a three hours talk, but he w ill help the counter more between now* and Christmas than ail the politicians can do this side of the day of judg* ment, if buyers and sellers will only conle to the pie me Sherman’* ramp lowers and Kilpatrick’s torch light trooper* laid waste our fair country. Tho tariff and taxes and high furicesliave made the people poorer year after year* Micbalson ia tired of that. He w ill give thla fall’a work to the go«Kl of the peo ple. Instead of grasping for profit he will try to clear expenses and make frieudsi When times get better and the farmers are out of trouble he will try to make money. That ia hla platform for six day* in the .week, and everybody la asked to come and see him standing there, giving the best prices for cotton and all conn* try produce and selling all kinds of goods to all sorts of people at only one price and that below zero.
