Norrlstewn Register. Among the ballads of the war, none per. baps, are mere widely known than Tf bit tiers " Barbara FritcJiie," It is a simple story, told in a plain way, but its deep pathos, its glowing patriot ism, and generous sentiments towards a fallen fee. have made it universally popu lar. Whittier has- conferred poetic im mortality upon the old town of Frederick, and made the home of Barbara Fritcbie, whether reality, or a myth, a pilgrim's shrine of patriotism for future genera tions. His description of the scene of bis story is se graphic and true te nature, that strangers cannot fail te recognize it. Feeling the need of rest and recreation, I left Xorri&tewn, te spend a few days among friends and relatives in Maryland, and te revisit tbe scenes of my childhood aud early life in Frederick and adjoining country. Passing a day in Gettysburg, I took the train for Frederick, and arrived, after a slew aud tedious ride, as the sun of a sultry summer afternoon was sinking behind the low mountain range of the Ca Ca tectin. Frederick, new a city, is located in the richest part of Maryland, sometimes called the " garden spot," and is one of the old colonial towns. During the French and Indian wars it was one of the outposts of civilization, and in the time of the Revolu tion, bad barracks, still standing a few years age, in which wcie quartered many of the prisoners taken at Yorktown and ether places. Situated upon the great national read from the East te the West aud only 45 miles from Baltimore, it was a place of euterpriss and business, but failing te secure the Baltimore & Ohie railroad which passes seme milejs te the south, has net kept pace with its mere modern rivals in the march of progress. It is new a quiet old fashioned town, with considerable wealth, aud a population of 10,000, nearly 2,000 of whom are colored. In approaching the city of Frederick from the East or "West a cluster of six steeples seems te rise from the centre of the town .as if all the churches bad been ied in a single square. It is a bcau- grObr :n, and results from their rcla- tiful ilhlkt. and the points of vision tive position, - seen. Whittier de- from which they Uv lines of his bal- scribes it in he first feu. lad. He says : -,, ITp from the meadows rich with Ce.. Clenr in tnc cool feeptember morn The cluttered spires et Frederick stand Green walled by the bills el Maryland Round about them orchards sweep Apple and peach tree fruited deep, Fmii- as tne garden et the Lord Te the eyes of the furnished rebel horde. Within this green frame work of bills and mountains lies the rich valley of Fred crick with its central city forming a beau tiful picture, which once seen, cannot be seen forgotten. Passing through Frederick I was feicibly reminded of the llight of time. The old familiar streets were there. Mauy of the beuses remained a they were in the days of my boyhood. Seme bad been touched by the baud of improvement ; ethers bore the marks of increasing age, and the moul meul dering touch of the fingers of time. But, the living world in which I had moved was changed. The old, ene by one, had de parted; and many of my young companions were sleeping in tbe evcrgreeu cemeteries around the city. New and unfamiliar faces met me everywhere : and 1 lclt tbe solitude of the stranger among the living throng, and amid scenes endeared te me by many a social joy of youth, and manhood's early years. But leaving personal feelings and senti ments, I must return te my subject ; "Bar bara Erietcbie and her home." During my visit, glauciug ever a Fred erick paper, my eye rested upeu the obitu ary notice of an old friend. It read as fol fel lows : "Death ok an Eutimaule Lady The many friends of Mrs. Mary A. Quantrill (formerly Miss Sands, who taught school in this place), will regret te learn of her death. She died at her rosidence in Wash ington City, D. C, in the 50th year of her age. She was a lady of fine mind and many accomplishments, aud was beloved for her gentle disposition and kind ness of hcait by all who knew her. During the war she resided in this city and was a most ardent aud patri otic supporter of the Union cause. As the confederate army passed her residence, en its way te Antietam, she waved the stars and stripes, and it is believed by mauy that this fact gave rise te the Barbara Fritcbie myth and Whittier's celebrated poem of the war." After reading a statement like this, many may be ready te exclaim : " Then after all Barbara Frictcbie is only a myth, and Whittier's noble and popular ballad a patriotic fiction." Weanswer.ne. The ob ject of the poet was te present a great deed and be has simply used common poetic license in filling up his picture with inci dents and characters best adapted te his art and purpose. Most probably he re ceived the main fact in an indefinite or distorted form, and wrought it up se as te produce the highest poetic effect. But Barbara Frietchie is no myth. She was a real character a living old woman well known in the part of the city in which she lived. She entertained strong Union sen timents, and felt a deep interest in the war. A gentleman witli whom I am inti mately acquainted, and who lived near her, told that she frequently came te his store te learn tne news and talk about the prospects of the Union. When he was discouraged, she would say : "Never mind Harry, we'll whip 'em yet." The house in which bhe lived I knew fepm boyhood as her residence. It was a rtnall one-story brick building, with two dormer windows, standing upon the borders of Carrell creek (en Baltimore btrect, at the eastern entrance of Bentz town bridge;. On widening the channel of the stream, the house was temeved f-errjc years age. This much is true. But we have never seen or heard of any one who saw her wave the fiag, or saw the ' window pane and sash" that must have been "sniveled " had a volley been fired at the obnoxious Hag. As far as I can learn, Jackoeii and his men did net pass her house at all. But, had he done se, under the circumstances, he would have been the latt man te elder his soldiers te fite upon a lig floating from a private dwelling. The object of Lee's invasion in Maryland was te release her from what was considered the " bondage of the Union," te conciliate her citizens and win her te the support of the Confederacy, and hence his soldiers were strictly for bidden te de anything that would cause irritation. The real foundation of the fctery of the flag, was the heroic act of Mrs. Quantrill, te which the writer of the obituary notice alludes. At the time, she resided about a hundred yards west of Barbara Frietchie, and en the same side of the street. A gen tleman residing en the opposite side wit. nessed the occurrence and related it te me, a short time after tbe war. He stated that while Jie was watching the confederate troops passing by, he noticed something of a commotion among them, and looking up, be Paw a Union flag waving from Mrs. Quantrill's window. Just at this time, an officer supposed te be Lengstrcct rode up, aid requested the lady te withdraw the flag as a cause of useless irritation. She refased in language of bold defiance. After a short parly the officer rode en, Icav ing the flag waving in the face of the ja33 ing troops. As thcgcntleman from whom I received the statement is a man of high standing and veracity, and was well ac quainted with Barbara Frietchie and Mrs. QuantrelL there can be no reason te doubt his version of the affair. . But, whoever was the heroine of that daring patriotic act, the honor with pos terity will rest upon the hoary head of Barbara Frietchie ; and generations te came will etill read the legend as Whittier wrote it: On that pleasant morn et the early tall When Lee marched ever the mountain wall, Over the mountains winding down Herse and root Inte Fredericktown. Forty flags with their silver stars Forty flags with their crimson bars. Flapped in the morning wind ; the sun Of neon looked down, and saw net one. Up rose old Barbara Frietchie then, Rowed with her fourscore -years and ten ; Bravest of all in Frederick town. She took up the flag the men haulad down. In her attic wiucew the statT she set Te show that one heart was loyal yet. Barbara Frietchie has long siuce goue te her grave. We cannot but honor .the pa triotic devotion of the wierd, stern old woman of ninety te her country's flag. But, had the poet known, or taken for his subject the real heroine of his story, the sprightly accomplished matron of forty, surrounded by her children, he would have made a mere attractive picture, and given us a beautiful living impersonation of the Goddess of Liberty seated amid the storm clouds of war, and waving the star ry symbol of union and freedom, order and law.

The result is we get the best linens in the world, in the best possible condi tion, and for the least money anybody can get them for. We can give you the importers' profit, and still have enough left. New it is proper for te consider that somebody else may be doing the same thing, and afford the very same advantages.
