A year or two ago, one Adams, a
r.iijiioua enthusiast und worldly im
.ii'er, uppeared in Now England and
vjj'ht to prevail upon n inimbcr of
,.(!. pie to ciuitrrnto w ilh him to the
uciuity of Jaffa, in Syria. He allu
i'?d to the traditional Lope of the
.'jvvikh peoplo to occupy I'ulusline,
1 1 prophesied ite speedy fruition.
J!e pictured the country restored to
n:ltiruUon andactivity by a great
ieopU',the chosen of Hod ; and charm
d foaie credulous iamilies and iudi
fviduiils, even among tho shrewd Yan
akce population of Maine, with the
ji'lea of becoming pioneers in the work
li'f coloniiing tho sacred soil. His
reirescDtatioini of the material rc
f janes of the region beyond Jaffa, on
the road to Jerusalem, were enchant
ing. Wheat, it wa said, could be
rruduuvd al the rato of from fcixtv to
ine hundred bushels ter acre. Three
! crops could bo reaped in a sinMo year.
Frnils and vegetables would grow in
unimaginable abundance. The cli
r.utj was delicious and bealthy. , All
tliat was needed was enterprise, indus
try and skill to make the whole plain
JblosHonj as the rose nnd a homo there-
i n seem a homo in rnradiso.
Peonla enough were soon imDn oavJ
flo tuund the proposed colony. These,
:avn.i? desputchea to Jn in aiivance
an agent of their own whocamo back
-lib with tidings Ota goodly prospect,
emigrated forthwith. Their disap
pointtnent and eubseqticut sufferings
imre been since partially disclosed.
The representations made to them
proved totally false. Tho soil and
climate turned out to be precisely
what was not told them.
They were heart stricken, and tried
to return. Six of them came back
somo time ago, huving means of their
own. Another party of fourteen suc
ceeded in reaching the United States
through tho generous aid of Captain
Strong, of the United States steamer
Caimndaigufl. Of the next party,
numbering thirty-two, eighteen, most
ly widows and children, came at the
irivato expense of J. Aug. Johnson,
lq, United States Consul-General
I'.r Syria, who paid 81,250 in gold
l'ir their pnssiges, without hopo or
thought o( reimbursement ; and the
rewere enabled to return by the aid
of Mr. Hale, United States Consul nl
Alexandria, and Mr. Taylor, Consul al
(Yiro. It was expected that the
vrlio remained would be able to eke
uut n decent living. But the crop
Uiled, and they were, at last account!,
r.enrlv starviuif. Mr. Halo visited
j the colony in May, and found most of
j the colonists very anxious to get
l.":nc, and nil in need of assistance.

l uuiuuwiuur hay you couiuu t
jKWii.e to tell you how b0 was d rested
m bcrpicter: bIio didn't look
much
like when sho used to kite around the
kentry in her linsey wooltey. Her
msrin made pi-rme linsey t she wove
it arid kellercd it hoi. soli; nobody
could keller sich madder and blue
and but'nu t as Sally, (Car l; lie's miirm.)
How she wed to kiteurnund tho ken
try, I was saying, in her lioscy-wcol-sey,
wilh her bare feel, and 1'rowsey
hair, and freckled face. Sbo used to
hev to wash, and iron, and cook, and
milk, and sometimes drop corn when
tho men fulks were hurried, and help
at harvesting. Lawk ! bul she's fine

an' if Hezekiali did use to Toiler fa'r
min' an' tcamiti' for a iivin', nobody
knows it in the city.
Car'linc'a Iiicter didn't dissiinblo her
much; her hair was fuounadidled off
in line style, her huir .yii bed out in
places what w ould hcv shocked a fren-
ullygist if it was the natural shape of
iter 11CHU ; amj ncr dress neck was
low and short sleeves ! Sho was slan
din' by a big timer, bor hand, with
lots of rings on it, restiu' on the back
of it. Her gound was so lung it drag
gled on the keurpct an' a big rullio on
the bottom of it, an' then tlicro was
bows un' ruflles, un' lace nnd ribliina
all over the waist and skenrt. Her
rig inusl hev cost a power money, and
I should have set more by bor if ntio

Well, one day there was dissidersble
stir in town; folks walkin' about in
their Sunday go-to-meeting'iig, an'
laughiu' an' talkiu' putty much as
they do when there's goin' to be a
circus or inenasery ; but there hadn't
been no show paper au' piclcrs up,
so I didn't know what could be to

When the capital of '.he Confederate
States was evuellllleil thn sm'ii lio.
longing to the Ilicl.inond bunks was
removed, with tho archives of the
governinent, to Washington, Geor-ia.
Early after tho close of the war, a
wagon train conveying this specie
from Washington to Abbeville, S. C,
was atta; ked'und robbed of an amount
ai.iinixiiiiutii..r t Slim ihhi i...i
j of di! anded soldiers of the Confeder-
nle army. A few weeks subsequent
to this event, Brig. Gen. 1'Mwnrd A
Wild, with an escort consisting of
twelve negro soldiers, under tho com
mand of Lieut. Seaton,of dipt. Alfred
Coolcy's company, (liiitb. regiment of
New York volunteers,) repaired to
tho scene of the roblwry, in the vicin
ity of Danburg, Wilkes county, Ga.
Hy order of den. Wild, nnd in bis
preseiico, A. I). Chonaiilt, a Methodist
minister, weighing '.'75 pounds, bis
brother, John Chonaiilt, of moder
ate size, and a 6011 of tho latter, only
15 years of ago, but weighing 'I'M
pounds, wero arrested nnd taken to
an adjacent wood, where tho money
abstracird from the train, or a portion
of it, was supposed to bo couceitlod
Failing to produco the money upon
the order ot Gen. Wild, these three
citiaohs, wh enjow thvHrKeil,,.Hl!
were suspended by their thumbs, with
tho view of extorting confessions, a
to the place of its concealment.
Mr. John N. Chennult was twice
subjected to this torture, nnd on ono
occasion until ho fainted, nnd was
thou cut down. Ilev. A. I. Chcnaull
was also hung up twice by his thumbs,
nnd until Gen. Wild was induced only
by his groans nnd cries to relesso biin
from bis ngony. The youth, A. F.
Chennult, was bung up once, and
until bo exhibited evident signs of
tainting, when be was cut down.
Whilst this sceno was being enacted,
Gen. Wild and bis subaltern were
both present, directing the whole
operations. These citizens, with the
exception of John N. Chennult, who
was unable to be removed, were then
scut nndor guard to Washington, fif
teen miles distant.
liy order of G'cn. Wild, a daughter
of John N. Cheniiull, above seventeen
years of age, universally beloved by
her neighborhood, and Uintinguishcd
for her piety, was searched, by being
stripped in the presence of the lieuten
ant, who was charged wilh tho exe
cution of tho order. When bcr gar
ments, piece by piece, wero taken
from her nnd the very Inst ono upo"
her was reached, in tlio instincts of
her nativo modesty she throw herself
upon 11 bed nnd sought to conceal her
person with Us covering. N10 was
ordered to stand out npon the floor
until stripped to perfect nakedness.
P.'j order of (len Wild, tho wifo of
John N. Chennult was arrested and
taken under guard to Washington,
where she wns incarcerated for several
days, on bread and water, in one of
the petit jury rooms of tho jourt house,
and after eho had been lim ed to leave
ut homo her nursing infant, but nine
months old, where it remained until
its mother was released. ' '
During llio period of her imprison
ment, Gen. Wild was wailed upon nt
his hotel by threo citizens of the conu-
try, to wit: rraniis U. Miugncld,
