Register's office, at Easton. His estate,
mostly invested in stocks, is estimated to
be worth from $850,000 to $400,000. He
was the wealthiest man iu Easton. lie
left a wife and eight children. He di
vided the property into eight equal parts,
of which the widow retains two shares

He directs all his property to be sold

Oe of the humanitarian movement of
our times although little known as such,
can hardly be over-estimated iu its im

This, document, occeupying , forty-four
pamphlet pages, is a complete narrative
of the campaigns conducted under his,
supervision as General-in-Chief. We can
only quote from some passages, lie com
mences thus :
From an early period in the rebel
lion I had been impressed with the idea
that active and continuous operations of
all the troops that could be brought into
the Geld, regardless of season and weath
er, were necessary to a specuy termina
tion of the war. I he resources of the
enemy and -his numerical strength were
far mferior to ours but as an onset to this
we had a vast territory, with a popula
tion hostile to the government, to garri
son and Ions lines of river and railroad
communications to protect, to enable us
to supply the operating armies.
I he armies m the east and west acteu
independently and without concert, like
a baulky team, no two ever pulling to
gether, enabling the enemy to use to great
advar.tare Ins interior Hues or communi
cation for transporting troops from east
to west reinforcing the army moit vigor
ously pressed, and to furlough large uum
bers during seasons of inactivity ou our
p.irt, to go to their homes aud do the
work producing for the support of their
armies. It was a question whether our
numerical strength and resources were
not more than balanced by three disad
vantages and the enemy's superior posi
tion.
"From the first I wa3 firm in the cou
viction that no peace could be had that
would be stable aud couductive to that
happiness of the people, both north and
smith, until the military power or the re
bellion was entirely broken.
"I therefore determined, first, to use
the greatest number of troops practical
against the armed force of the enemy
preventing him from using the same force
at d.fferent seasons against iirst one and
then another of our armies, and the pos
sibility of repose for refitting and pro
dnciug necessary supplies for carrying ou
resistance. Secoud to hammer conttuu
ously agaiustthe armed force of the enemy
au his resources, until by mere attrition
if in uo other way, there should be noth
ing left, to him but an equal submission
with the loval scctiou of our common
country to the Constitution and laws of
the land.
'These views have been kept constau
tly iu miud, and orders given and cam
paiirns made to carry them out. Wheth
er they might have been better in con
ception and executiou is for the people.
who mourn the loss ot friends fallen, and
who have to pay the pecuniary costs, to
say. All 1 can say is, that what
have done has been done conscientiously,
to the best of my ability, and in what
conceived to be for the best interests of
the whole conutry. -
His censures fall freely on nearly al
of General Butler's movements, and it i:
manifest that lie considers Uutier res
ponsible for a great amount of unnecess
ary loss of tune, life and money. 11
remarks, "my idea from the start had
been to beat Lee's arms north of Rich
m0nd. if possible : then, after destrovinir
U nns nf enuirnnnHi.-it on north nt thu
James river to transfer the army to the
south side and besiege Lee in Bichmond
or follow him south if he should retreat."
uAter the battle of the Wilderness it
was evident that the enemy deemed it o
the first importance to run no risk with ar
my lie then had. lie actea purely on
W 1
the defensive behind breastworks, or
leeoly on the otleusive :mmeaiateiy in
front of them and where, iu case of re
pulse, he could easily retire behind them.
Without a greater sacrifice of life than 1
was willinir to make, all could not- be ae
complishcd that I had designed north o
Bichmond.
'Duriuir three lonjr years the armies
of the Potomac and Northern Virgiuai
had been confronting each other. In
that time they had fought more desper
ate battles than it probably ever before
fell to the lot of two armies to fight, with
out materially changing the vantage
grouna oi euner. juie soutneru press
and people, with more, shrewdness than
was displayed in the north, finding that
they had failed to capture Washington
and march on to Now York, as they had
boasted they would do, assumed that they
only defended their capital and southern
territory. Hence, Autietam, Gettysburg
aud all the other battles that had beeu
fought were by them set down as failures
on our part, and victories for them.
Their army believed this. It produced a
moral which could only be overcome by
desperate and continuous hard fiirhting.
"The buttles of the Wilderness, Spot
sylvania, North Anna and Cold Harbor,
uioouy anu icrrioie as tney were on our
side, were even more dam ig ug to the
enemy, and so crippled him as to malic
him wary ever after taking the offensive.
His loe3 in men were, probably, not so
great, owing to the fact we were, save in
the Wilderness almost invariably the at
tacking party, and when he did attack it
was in the open field. The details of
these battles, which, for endurauce and
bravery on the part of the soldiery, have
rarely been surpassed, arc given in the
report of Major Gcueral Meade, and the
subordinate reports accompanying it."
The report closes thus :
"It has been my fortune to see the ar
mies of both the west and the east fight
battles and from what I have seen I know
there is no difference in their fighting
qualities All that it was possible for
men to do in battle they have done. The
western armies commenced their battles
in the Mississippi valley, and received
the final surrender of the remnaut of the
principle army opposed to them in North
Carolina. The armies of the east com
menced their battles on the river from
which the Army of the Potomac derived
its name, and received the final surrender
of their old antagonist at Annomattox
Court-house, Virginia. The splendid
achievements of each have nationalized
our victories, removod all sectional jeal
ousies, of which we have unfortunately
experienced too much, and the cause of
cnmiuation that might have followed had
either section failed in its dntv All
bavo a proud record, and all sections can
well" congratulate themselves and each
nthor fnr li.nvinn- dnne their full share in
restoring, the supremacy of law over every
loot or territory ociougiug lu mo wui-
States. Let them Hope for perpeiuai
neaceand harmony with that enemy Whose
mauhood, however mistaken" the cause,
drew forth such herculean deeds of va
lor."
A Singular Case,
About fifty-flvevears ago,' a young gentle
man and lady formed an associatom as young
gentlemen and ladies often do, and it was
supposed by the friends that it would termi
nate ,in matrimony, iiut tor some reason
best known to the parties, the association
was dissolved, they separated, lhe young
man subequcnily .married and lost three
wives the last one within the last o. or nine
months The young lady married, and lived
with her husband over fifty-three years, and
raised a numerous family. During the last year
her husband died. The lady remained a widow
bout eleven months, when her former suitor
made an advance to her he being about 7'o
years old, and the lady 71 and they were
finally. married. The parties are living m

very severe sufferings were her portion
