Henry eaye: Although I am the OWoer of the property en which the first battle of Ball Boo was fought, I did not see (he battle. I returned from Alexat dria eoon after that event and witnessed the eocend battle at this point. Mj mother was killed in her bed by a eheil from a federal battery at tba firBt battle. Sbe was blind, aged and helpless at the time, and as the battle raged about the house it was on safe to remain in? doors as cn any otber spot. General Sher men and Senator Cameron visited here a few years since. Sherman bad not been on the field since the battle in July, 1861. He s-ked no questions. He eetmed to know every point of interest and tbe several poei tlons of troops. Daring his stay he made bat one wrong observation He said, "Mr. Henry, I was in your house daring tbe battle." I said, "No, General; tbe touee then Btandlog was destroyed." "Ob, yes," be replied, "I re? member there was a wide hall io the house, end (bis one bas ncne." I recl'e this to demonstrate Sherman's careful a'ten'.ion to detaiir. General Sherman atked me if I weald sell my property If I cared to part with it, be knew a man who would buy it. I'earned eobe? qoenlly that the intending tut chaper wsb Senator Don Cameron. Sen? ator Cameron's oncle was hilled at tbe bead of ibe Seventy nintb Highlanders, a few rods from my hou?e. Generals Bee and Bar tow, of South Caro?na, were also billed for? ty rodB distant, and a quarter of a mile dis? tant wan killed Colonel Fle'cher Webster, of (be Twelfth Massscbusetts Volunteers, son of tbe great Daniel Webster, in the sec end battle of Bull Kan. It is a singular coincidence tl at ibe second battle ended on the same spot that tbe first engagement ended.?St Louis Globe-Democrat. Leadership in Society ?Io a sketch of the late John Jacob Astor, the Rav. Dr? Morgan Dix, of Trinity Oharob, New York, said recently before the Genealogical and Biographical Society: "New York society is a living entity and has an existence of its own. Ia it, as in everything else, there is good and there is evil. In our sooiety there is no crown, no hereditary arislooraoy to set the fashion, but the leadership devolves upon those to whom the headship ie tacitly oonoeded. Mrs. As? tor was one of tbla number, and eo assidu? ously did she attend to ber duties that it ended in shortening ber life. Shekoew that she must set a good example to society ; tbat doors muet be closed against dubious women aid men with profligate tastes. She knew the extravagance, the low rivalry, and tbe secret or open sympathy with an ege which tended to corrupt tbe heart. It may be said for ber tbat society was rendered the purer for ber loftier ideals." Dr. Dix said that he bad good proof that Mr. and Mrs. Astor spent easily $100,000 a year in unostentatious charities. Mrs. Astor herself used frequently to visit tbe midnight miss'on which she had established, in simple garb as S ster Augustine, her identity being unknown to the Inmates. Ban Off With a Blind Girl ?M. S. Tyler, a leading business man of Damascus, Pa., had lived happily with his wife and family many years. Several years ago he disappeared, and ab:ut the same time a young blind girl, a daughter of tbe most prominent family in tbat part of the Dele ware Valley, was missed. A brother of the girl traced her to New York and back to Middletown, Orange county, where he found her living with Tyler. All bis efforts to in? duce ber to return home were of no avail. The girl recently came of age and secured $12,000, a bequest from ber father, who died a few years ago. No intimacy was ever known or suspected between her and Tyler. The families lived close neighbors. Tbe girl was always modest and retiring in dis? position. She is said to have turned ber money and property over to Tyler. LEMOU ELIZIE A PLEA8ANT LEMON DRINK.
