The following interesting account
'of a young (Quaker who could not be
induced to fight in tbe late war,
i though conscripted, i9 from the pen
J of a prominent citizen of Tennessee.
I It is a faithful oarration of one of the
most interesting and curious events
"of the war.
' 1 hare just read in the Nashville
liauner if the It'.tb inst., a fragment
I of (Jov. Foote's reminiscnce, beaded,
How a Ouaker Refused to Fight.
! As I am familiar witb tbe facts and
circumstances alluded to, and as the
case greatly interested me at tbe time.
I have thought it might be of some
interest to your reader to go into
details more thai is doDe in Gover
nor Foote's brief allusion to tbe case.
Tbe young (Quaker alluded to in
Tiligba'm It. Vestol, who lived near
Columbia, Tenn. When (ien.
Bragg's armr was at Shelbyville,
Tenn., young Vestol was conscripted
aod sent to that place. He was as
signed to duty in the Fourth Tennes
see regiment, commanded by Col.
Murray, of Nashville. He reported
to tbe regiment as required to do,
but utterly refused to perform milita
ry duty of any character or descrip
tion. Neither by threats nor persua
sion could he le induced to aher bis
deiermination. Theoflieersof the reg
iment were as human as they were
true and gallant, and, after every ef
fort had failed to induce Ves;ol to
perform tbe duties of a soldier, they
gave the matter up in despair, aud
told him to leave and go borne, which
he did. But shortly thereafter
another conscript officer came along
and Vestol was again duly enrolled
as a conscript, and ordered to report
at Bragg's headquarters. All alone
and on foot, Vestol went to Cbatta-
nnnro. an.! reoorted at Brad's bead-1'"

quarters. ly a most singular coinci
dence, be was again assigned to the
Fourth Tennessee. Col. Murrav,
from bis Shelby ville experience, knew
be bad a tough customer to deal
with. He concluded be would try
the force of moral suasion, so one
day he sent for Vestol to come to bis
quarters, and undertook to convince
him from the Scriptures tbat be was
wholly wron? in his ideas and posi
'tion. But tbe young CJuaker was
rather too much for the gallant colonel
in the Scripture arguments and the
colonel sent for his cbaplin to talk to
Vestol and convince bim that he was
altogether wrong in his refusal to
fi trht or to perform military dutv.
The chaplain came and opeued the
argument after this wise: "I
wouldn't give a cent for a religion
that is opposed to my country."
Soid Vestol, "I wouldn't give a cent
for a country tbat is opposed to my
religion." Tbe argument lasted for
some time, but left the young tjuakei
unconvinced, and determined to do
no military duty of any description
He refused to police the camp, or to
do the least tbiug that could le tor
tured or constructed into military du
ty. At last Col. Murray, wholly un
able to do anything with Vestol, sent
him to brigade headquarters. Here
he as reasoned witb, and every ef
fort made to induce bim to go aud
perform tbe duties of a soldier, but
he was firm and indexable as the ev
erlasting bills. He was told tbat if
he persisted in his course he would
lie subjected to severe punishment,
and fin all V would be shot for disobe
dience of orders. He replied that
they bad tbe power to kill bim, but
neither the Federal or Confederate
army possessed tbe power to force
bun to abandon bis principle, or
prove false to his religion. Every
thing that could be constructed, di
rectly or indirectly, into military du
ty, be refused most emphatically to
engage in. lie was only about eigh
teen years of age. I soon became
satisfied tbat he acted from principle,
and would go to the stake, or meet
death in any shape it could assume.
rather than swerve one particle from
what be bad conceived to be his du
ty. It was tbe sublimest exhibition
of moural courage I had ever wit
nessed, aod it was the more remarka
ble from being found in a boy of only
eighteen, away from his family and
friends
I asked him one day if be had no
sympathy in tbe contest if he bad
no preference as to which side should
be successful. "U yes," te said, "1
would prefer to see the south victori
ous, as I live in the south anj among
southern people." 1 heard a gentle
man say to bim, "estol, did vou
ever exhibit any emotion about any
thing in your life oid you ever cry
in your life ?" "O yes," he said, "I
have cried in my life." "Well," said
the gentleman, "I would like to know
what were tbe circumstances that
caused you to cry." "Well, sir," he
said, "when I left home to come here,
my mother cried when she told me
good -by and I cried then. "Yes,"
said the gentleman, "aud if your
mother where here now, and could
see bow you are situated, she would
tell you to take your gun and go out
and do your duty as a soldier."
"No, sir," be quickly replied: "the
last thing my mother said to me was
to be true to my religion, and 1 mean
to do it." It was during bis stay at
(ien. Maney's headquarters that Ves
tol bad his iuterview with (irvernor
Foote.
iov. Foote was at tbat time a
member of the Confederate congress,
representing the Nashville district,
aud was a candidate for re-election.
Tbe soldiers from Tennessee in the
army were allowed to vote, aod tbe
governor was out electioneering
among tbe soldiers. Wbile at Gen.
Maney's headquarters some one
pointed out Vestol to Gov. Foote, or
introduced Vestol to bim, as a (Qua
ker who wouldn't fight, when tbe fol
lowingconversation occurred between
tbem :
Foote "What, young man, won't
you fight you are a stout, good look
ing young man is it true that you
refuse to fight ?"'
' Vestol "Yes sir."
Foote 'Why, you are all wrong
about that. Suppose you were tc
marry a beautiful aod accomplished
ed young lady, and some ruffian were
to come into your house and grossly
insult ber, wouldn't you kill him?"
Vestol "No, sir."
Foote (jumping from his seat in
a very excited maner) "Why, I'd
kill him in a minute."
Resuming his seat after a minute,
tbe governor surveyed Vestol, and
again commenced a conversation with
bim.
Foote "Young man, you are all
wrong about this matter, even from a
Scriptural standpoint. When Christ
was upon earth be directed bis disci
ples to pay tribute to Ca-sar. Tne
money thus paid went into the Ro
man treasury, and was used in carry
ing on tbe wars of the Roman peo
ple." Vestol "No sir; you are mistaken
about tbat. Tbe Temple of Janus
was closed at that time, and there
were no wars going on."
Foote "I believe be knows more
about it than I do. I don't know
whether the Temple of Janus was
closed then or not."
Such was jWaa:ia!ly tbe inter
view between tbia remarkable boy
and ibis remarkable man. l'erbaps
two more opposite characters, in
many particulars, never cauie in coo
tact." Vestol was ordered to Knoxville.
and fro n that place be found bis way
to tbe Virginia army, and was assign
ed to one of tbe Teunessee regiments.
Here he was rde-ed to military du-j
; tr
but firmlv refused, as be bad done

The brigadier in command,
j knowing his history or antecedents.
ordered bini to be bayoneted for dis
obedience of orders, and the bayonet
was applied to him repeatedly. lie
bore it witb tbe spirit of a martyr,
and the soldiers, seeing that be would
die willingly iu preference to sacrific
ing bis principles, refused further to
punish bim. No punishment or
tbreaU could shake the settled pur
poses of his soul for a moment. He
was undei arrest all tbe while. Fre
quently, on retreats, his guard would
lose sight of him but ia a day or two
Vestol would marcb op alone into
camp.
He was afterward detained in Cas
tle Thunder for awhile, at Richmond,
but was finally permitted by toe Sec
retary of war to go down to North
Carolina to school, and as there at
the time the war closed. Sashrilb'

Puring the tbuuder storm yester

changed tbeir course many limes,
but turned to tbe north after each
change. When over the corner of
Tenth and Felix streets, a streak of

the geese dropied as if shot. An ob
server ran to the spot where the
goose was seen to fall, expecting, no
doubt, wild goose for dinner. Upon
arriving on the spot he found what,
without a questiou, was one of the
most curious freaks that that most
subtile of fluids ever, plfyed. The
goose had a scarred and burned hole
extending from the back down
through the body, there beiug no

passed through the flying bird. The

A correspondent of the Xew

"That mysterious relation which is
said to exist between an amputated
limb and its parent body receives a
fresh illustration in the case of young
Palmer, who suffered the loss of a leg
recently, aod of which mention was
made by our correspoudeut. After
tbe operation, the removed member
was deposited in a box and buried by
direction of tbe family. The patient
complained severely of pain, aod a
sense of cramping in ibe lost foot,
and suffered so acutely that at the
suggestion of some one the package
was takea up and examined. It was
found on oiieniug that the box was
too short for the limb, aod that tbe
toot and toes bad been twisted into a
strained aud unnatural position; a
larger case was prepared and the
member placed in it in an easy posi
tion and reburied, since which time
the patient has rested quiet, and no
complaint has been made.'
At the close of a tavern dinner two
of the company fell down stairs, the
one tumbling to tbe firnt Iaodiug
place aod the other rolling to the
bottom. Some one remarked thai
the first seemed drunk. "Yes," ob
served tbe wag, "but be is not so far

selves in the presence of an almost
complete instrument composed of a
series of (ras tubes similar to organ
pipes, cf different lengths and dimen
sions, in which gas jects were burn
ing, and which played some very
powerful aod very moving morceauje.
The difficulty of the inveu'ion con
sisted, of course, iu regularising tbe
jets. Tbe theory is this: When an
isolated gas jet produces a sound,
you have only to briug another simi
lar jet uear it to make the sound cease.
M. Kastner, then, has invented a con
trivance which opeus aud shuts like
the fiugers of a band of which each
oue should . allow a jet to escape.
When the fingers are exteoded the
sound is produced; when they are
closed or approached to each other
the sound ceases. He next regulated
the force of tbe souud by the diinen
sions of the tubes, aud hy the height I
at which the jects were placed iu the
tubes. The contrivance corresponds J
to ibe key-board ' f a piano, aud you
are deeply moved at hearing those
jets siug with extraordinary power,
purity, and correctness. The audi
ence was still more astounded at sud
denly beariug the gasaliers placed in
the centre of the room, aud set iu
motiou by invisible electric wire, ex
ecute "God Save the (Jueen" in so
norous nnd penetrating tones. Tbe
iuveution is still in a rudiuieutary
state, but I hasten to call attention
to it because it seems to me destiued
to produce a great seosauon when it i
shall have received the improvements I
wbi.;h will certaiuly be introduced j

The Weitllb of Krmll.
All intelligent travellers who have
visited lii hziI sneak in the most irlouc-!
ing terms of the country. Prof. fl'"!aIe mterrogater the other day,
Agassiz regarded it as the most pro-1 "U e llke OBe uotber ; we bave been
ductive and interesting country ou j "rried, aud what can we do ?" Al
the irlobe. and the one iu which it isitDug th,re n"J be a little difficulty
the easiest to obtain a livelihood.
Some wbo have sailed up the Ama
7. in .lecture that a vest-el can be load
ed with Briizil nuts at au expense of
only a few cents per bushel. These
constitute a valuable article of com
merce, while (he oil extracted from
them is very desirable. All the trop
ical fruits are produced in Brnzil al-
most wilLout cultivation. The soil
iu many parts of the country will
produce twenty successive crops of i
cotton, tobacco or sugar cane with-
out tne application ot manure. .No
country in the world approaches the
laud of Dom Pedro iu the variety of
its forest productions. Prof. Agas
siz states that be saw 117 different
kinds of valuable woods .hat were
cut from a piece of land not balf a
mile snuare. Tbey represented al
most evory variety of color, aud
many of them were capable of re
ceiving a high polish. Uue tree fur
nishes wax that it used for candles,
another a pith that is used for food;
and still another yields a juice which
is used in the place of intoxicating
liquor. There is a single variety of
palm from which tbe uatives obtain
fooil, driuk, clothing, bedding, cord
age, fi.biugta kle, mediciue, and the
material they manufacture into dwell
iugs, weapous, hnrioons and musical
instruments. Doubtless the day is
not distant when tbe valuable woods
of Hrazil wil! be used for various
useful and ornamental purposes. Bra
zil is not only "a wooded country,"
but a country that produces tbe most
beautiful wood in the world.
A Drllg-htral Legend.
There is a beautiful legend connec
ted with the site on which the temple
cf Siomoo Has erected, it is said
to have Wen occupied in common by
two brothers, oue of whom bad a
family, but tbe other bad none. Uu
tbe evening succeeding tbe harvest,
the wheat having, been gathered in
shocks, the older brother said to bis
wife,
"My younger brother is unable to
bear the burdeu and heat of the day.
I will arise, take off my shocks, and
place them with bis, without his
knowledge "
The younger brother being actua
ted by the same benevolent motives,
said to himself.
"My elder brother has a family
and I bave none. I will coutr'bute
to their support. I will arise, take
off my shocks aud place them with
his, without his kuowledge."
Judge of their astonishment when,
on the following morning, they found
lhat their respective shocks were un
diminished. This course of events
trauspired for several nights, when
each resolved in his own mind to
staud guard, and, if possible, solve
the mystery. Tbey did so, and ou
the following night, they met each
other balf way between their respec
tive shocks, wiih their arm full.
I'lMin grouud balloweaby such as
sociations as this, was the" temple of
Soloinou built so spacious, so mag
ailicetii, the wonder aud admiration
of the world. Alas! in these days,
how many woul 1 sooner steal tueir
brother's whole shjck than add to it
a single sheaf?

Yesterday afternoon, says the San
Francisco Vail, a young man much
giveu to slaug of the day, called on
the pro.-ecutiug attorney aud an
nounced that he wauted a warrant
tor tbe arrest of a saloonkeeper wbo
assaulted him, and this is the way
be made bis want known:
Lo k-a-bere, I waut a warrant for
a feller.'
' hat did be do to you?' anked tbe
attorney.
'He tired me out.'
'Fired you out! What do you mean
by ibai!"
'Ob, well be stood me on my bead.'
'Do you mean to say tbat be stood
you ou your bead; how did be do ii?'
'He didu't exactly do that, but he
elevated me. Kinder raised me off
my ear.'
'What did he do thit foi?'
'Why, 1 a.-ked him for a drink,,
aud when 1 told hiui to chalk it in
his bead, and tbat when I come
around again I'd kick it out, be told
me to pull down my vest. I told
him to comb bis hair, and he just
tben boosted me."
He obtained a warrant for assault
and battery.

"The conrseof true love never did
run smooth" is a time worn adage
wnicn tne majority or grown-up
folks, as a rule, give tbeir adherence
to. hetber, however, this is the
cause of a "dead-lock" in tbe affairs
of a oewly-tnarried couple residing
iu the township of Westminster we
know not, still tbe annexed statement
is nevertheless tre. Tbe male par
ticipator in the affair is, we believe,
a farmer in good circumstances, while
the bride is stated by those wbo
should know to be a rather good
looking young woman of 23 summers.
Tbe courtships are carried on as all
such courtships are ia tbe rural dis
trictsprincipally going to aod re
turning from church, meetings, etc.
It was rather lengthy, and at times
people tbongbt the disparity in tbe
ages would be a barrier, in tbe long
run, to the UDioo. All sucb surmises,
however, were doomed to disappoint
ment, as a week or two ago the lov
ing couple were "made one," the
honeymoon trip indulged in, and on
Sunday lasf. tbe orthodox "church-
going" took place in a city chapel.
Tbe most extraordinary fact, bow
ever, remains to be told. Wbile the
courtship was proceeding in was usu
ally understood tbat tbe couple were
uear relatives cousins, people gen
erally supposed. The announcement
of the marriage, however, gave rise
to a good deal of further speculation
on tbe subject. But imagine tbecon
sieroatiou of all parlies coucerned
when, laat week, it was discovered
that the bridegroom's father bad been
twice married ; tbat be was one of
tbe first wife's family ; and tbat tbe
bride was one of the second wife's!
tbey being thus constituted stepbroth
er and sister. The brother left borne
prior to bis mother's dea'b.and never
saw bis sister till be bad (unknown
to himself) interviewed ber in the
role of tbe lover. The young lady's
mother tf e old man" is now dead
since the discovery of tbe above
facts has been almost distracted. Uf
course, tbe gossips are having a nice
time in discussinir the. mitnr- l.m
the newly-married couple have not
yet giveu any definite reply to the
UU(nerous nqu'nes as to what tbey
nlt"a" 'I the bride totbe
i in disposing of such ;a querry. the
jouly apparent way out of ibediflicul
i ty is a sicedy separation, as ueitber
legally or socially are tbe parties mar

The Poor Mala.
The amount of fatigue, exposure,
and abstiueuce, which a mule will en
dure, says a writer, seems almost
fabulous
Making long marches
Ht.roSfj jU8tr 80adelesa plains, going
for oog jQterva!s without water aud
with very little food, onliged to pull
loads sometimes amounting to five
thousand two hundred pounds, up
sleep bills and through heavy sloughs,
subject to cruel treatment and neglect
from tbe teamster, the life of an ex
pedition mule is miserable enough
No wonder lhat when tbe mule re
turns be looks woefully angular and
thin. The poor animal is frequently
driven until he completely gives out,
wbeu he is thanklessly turned iuto
tbe herd of broken down mules.
There is scarcely a more melan
cbolly sight than such a herd. It is
a nijveing boneyard. Gaunt, lean,
witb drooping ears, hips tbat rise like
promontories above tbe general deso
lation, a disconsolate tail, aod a woe
begone visage wbich would frighten
an experienced ghost tbe poor bank
rupt mule is tbe most wretched par
ody on Gothic architecture tbat ever
was forced on tbe public attention.
Every vestige of meat has fled from
bis bones. He is a walking transpa
rency, an animated bat-rack, and I
bave actually seen his bip bones ir
reverently used to bang teamster's
hats on.
During our homeward march from
the Hlack Hills, more than one sucb
starved victim laid down bis tired
frame on tbe earth which bad refused
to nourish bim, and tbe benediction
of a soldier's bullet called the raven
and coyote to a meal which it cost
tbe government one hundred and
forty dollars to procure.
CeatoBalal.
Philadelphia, May 10. It is es
timated officially tbat 120,000 people
entered tbe centennial grounds to
day. After the ceremonies on tbe
centennial grounds this afternoon
Governors Hartranft, Bedle, Carroll
visited tbe buildings erected by tbeir
Mates respectively and beld informal
receptions Gov. Ilice, of the Mas
sachusetts building, was welcomed
by Commissioner Loriug. He was
escorted to tue reception by tbe Bos
ton Cadets, wbo on tbeir return to
tbe city were joined by tbe Lancers.
His visit was somewhat more formal
than the others and was tbe only one
attended by any military display.
Tbe illumiubtion ia tbe city to
night was on a grand scale. Tbe old
State House building was tbe grand
center of attraction, and at one lime
the crowd was so great on Chestnut
street tbat it was almost impossible
to pass. Calcium lights were thrown
upon the historical building, and ev
erything was as brilliant as daytime.
The many points of interest were in
spected by the people, large numbers
of whom were strangers. Gen. Grant
was serenaded Id-nigbt, but Do
speeches were made.
A Parlataa Harrar.
A restaurant keeper went into bis
cellar to bottle several casks ol wine
he bad received. He lett bis head
servant in charge of the establish
ment. Tbree hours after be went
into tbe cellar, a gentleman called to
see bim, and tbe servant went down
stairs to summon bim. .The servant
ran back in great terror, and could
ouly gasp,
"Be quick tbe rats roy master!"
All the persons present ran into
tbe cellar to which the almost speech
less servant pointed, and found a
black mass on tbe floor; it was the
restaurant keeper, witb rats swarm
ing so thickly on bim as to conceal
him entirely. Tbey were devouring
bim. It was necessary to kick tbem
off, so engrossed ' were tbey witb
tbeir delicious meal. It was some
time before their victim could be
restored to consciousness, when be
said be remembered feeling faint soon
after be entered tbe cellar, and this
was all be knew. He bad swooned
and tbe vermin had swarmed on bim.
It is feared be will be disfigured for
life. ' - , -
Ao old farjjer once said, with
more troth than elegance, "There
are two talks ia tbe world to one
do.'"
A man must feel very cheap when
be is knocked down for nothing in ao
auction room.
