He,was a smart, active, intelli gent lasd, and gave unmistakable evidence of one whp had been, well reared. He told several persond that he was asonlof a lord—that he had bejn kidnapped from England and sent to this country, and that if he tad his just rights, he would be enjoying life and affluence in his own ancestral halls "in Northumberland, Eng land. fills statement, howdver, was generally disbelieved, although everybody with whom be was acquainted gave it as jtheir opinion that there mas something singular connected with the lad jand his past history. • The feicts in the case, whi|h have been since learnedjfrora undisputed authority are about as fallows, Some time in the year ,1837, Sir John N, Fenwiclt (the father of the lad alluded to), while engaged in a shooting expedition on the Cum berland Hills, was thrown fram'his horse, and was con veyed to the humble cottage of a poor clergyman near by, with a chattered ancle.— The clergyman was a. widower with an only child—i. beautiful ybong daughter just bud ding intso womanhood, who amended to the du ties Of t^ieir .humble home and cheered the'de clioing |years of a kind, venerable parent. She was unremitting in her kind attentions to the noble g|est, antLseldom left his bed-side until he was Entirely recovered. T|o make the matter .short. Sir John fell in love with the young Iqdy and proposed to her. In refly, Clara (for that was herfname), told her noble suitor jthat she loved hiin in return, but th it she would not leave hdr father, hut would remain with her kind parent, and lend a solace to bis declining years. !fhey parted, and after exchanjging the lover’s usual token— *• "With many a row and locked embrace frbeir parting was full tender, And pledging oft to meet .they tore-themselves astinder.” In thd Autumn of the same year—the mild and mellow'English autumn!—fit time indeed for the exit of eo pure a soul from its 1 earthly casket, t|ie spirit of the venerable pastor winged its way ta the realms of bliss bayond tho skies. * | '* * • * * * The marriage was simple and unostentatious ce|efflony being performed in private by a young'curate, in order to-escape the Ridicule, of the jridegroom’s haughty relatives—and Clara Seymore became the bride of Sir James ; North Fenwick of Fenwick Hall. They made the tour of the Continent, and in duo time re turned to England, where she presented her busbandiwith a boy, the subject of our present sketch. Sir John’s friends,! instead of con tumely and reproach, pretendjed greatly to ad mire Lady Fenwick, and congratulated him on; 'bis'choice.'- Two of his sisters took their resi dence inj Fenwick- Hall, and while pretending an! unbopnded affection for J the victim, were daily and hourly engaged by a malicious talent in poisoning Lord Fenwick’s mind against bis w tfe. Ifoor Clara, all this lime,' nnawaTo of the cruel, unrelenting course pursued toward her— Fenwick becoming more and more morose aiid cold to her every Hay, and she, tfnn l walfe of \ thh trne cause, attributed it to the, seeming fact that he regretted having united hi' elf ~’th ie tie hhinble rfs she.

These villainous women bad at lenght accomplished their vile purpose, which was to keep the magnificent, property within their grasp; for they could not brook the idea that one whom they regarded as the offspring of an humbly born | young female, for whom their brother bstd conceived an affection, should ever succeed to their proud title and the broad lands of their father] Thus it will be seen that vil lainy and- treachery triumphed for the time being. | Ppor Clara lay at the village inn raving from the effecteof brain fever, where she was daily visited by Captain O’Neil—a gallant, warm hearted Irish gentleman—of Enniskillin Dra goons, who was at '"the time quartered in thp vicinity. - He {became acquainted with Lady Clara at Fenwick Hall.' 1 - When she became suffiently recovered, he importuned her with much eloquence to go with inn to bis estate in Galway, Ireland. After many importunities, she at length yielded, for her husband’s cold and harsh treatment had ut terly obliterated all love she ever felt for him. Luckily, she had possession, beside her jewels, of two thousand pounds. Accompanied by Copt. O’Neil, she proceeded to, Liverpool, where she placed herj son on the" steamer Adriatic, which was about to sail for New-York, giving bim directions to seek a cousin of tier’s, named Summerville, a wealthy planter in the interior of Texas. She gave him one thousand pounds, .and bidding him an affectionate and tearful farewell, they parted—forever. She accompanied the captain to his estate on the const of Galway, where they were privately married. Her health failing, her husband took her to the south of France, in order to recu perate her shattered nerves. Capt. O’Neil dearly loved the yet beautiful Clara. ******* C. W. D. After a short and pleasant voyage, our young hero arrived in the Empire City, where he im mediately took passage in a steamer bound for Galveston, Texas. On bis arriving there be purchased a beautiful Indiab pony, and by ad hering to the directions given him by a mer-. chant of that place, who was acquainted with his relatives, he reached his cousin’s rancbe on the ninth day of his journey. On discovering who he was, and learning his strange and event ful history, his cousin received him with un bounded affection and kindness. His relative •was the owner of two thousand acres of land and fifty negroes, and numerous herds of cat tle; he was married to an amiable and intelli gent American lady, and his household was gladdened by the presence of his beautiful daughter Estelle. He spent his time most happily and agreea bly at the ranche for about six months, devp ting his time to hunting, fishing, and rambling | over the' flower-bespangled prairies with bisi charming relative, Estelle, with whom, it is al most unnecessary to say, our hero, fell des-. perately in love. , He was suddenly awakened from bis dreams of happiness and pleasure one pight by the starting and unwelcome intelligence that the Comanches and a large party of Mexican guer rillas were bearing down to attack the rnnebe. All hands were immediately mustered to repel the bloodthirsty marauders; the defenders numbered'seven white men (including our hero and bis cousin) and twenty negroes. The at tacking party numbered over six hundred guer rillas and Indians. The attack was commenced almost immediately—the assailants discharged showers of arrows and escopet balls at the de fenders, who were'stationed in the building, which, however, did little or no execution—the defenders replying with their death-dealing ri -fles, causing many a tawny savage and Mexi can ruffian to bite the dust. But why prolong this fearful scene ? Suffice it to say the,ranche was carried by storm, after a desperate resist ance, and every person (male and female) wa)s butchered except our hero, who yas taken pris oner and conveyed to Mexico by the Indians, after plundering and burning the ranch?. Our hero shed many a bittpr jtear oyer the fate of his darling Estelle, and kind and generous rela tives. He remained a prisoner about three months, and strange to say, although closely watched, was not subjected to any cruel treat ment. One day the tribe whose captive he was, started out on, a marauding expedition, leaving him in charge of an Indian. He was the very savage vffib had tomahawked his beautiful Estelle 1 The Indian jnduljged in liquor, freely, soon fell asleep. It was but the work of a mo ment for nur hero to unsboath the scalping* knife from the belt of the sleeping savage, and plant it in hie heart. Estelle was avenged 1 Seizing the Indian’s rifle and ammunition, he started off-ijq a northerly direction, and in three days reached the Bio Grande, where he found a canoe and crossed, and very soon reached Brownsville, Texas. " -r Here he met three Texan trovers, who were about to start with an immense drove of cattle tq Carlinville, Macoupin Coiinty, }n this State. Being short of hands, they •tdfered to hire him to go' with them and help them drive. Ren dered destitute by being deprived of everything by the marauders, he gladly accepted their offer and went. Arriving .at Carlingville, he determined to return to England, and boldly proclaim hie rights. .Accordingly he took the cars .for the East. While traveling on the New-York and Erie Eailqoad, be fell ip with a noble-hearted former, naned Dreston F. Sappington, of fVmt Isabel, of jthis county, who induced him to go to Clinton for the purpose of studying law with Mr. L. Weldon. Our hero, however, disliked the profession, and, as .we have*above stated, was employed in- this office by Mr. Sackett, and lately by-Mr." Stanbury.. While here, during October term of the Circuit Court, he stated bis case to the Hon. Abraham Lincoln, who immediately wrote' to the British Consul at Chicago. ( . ; . Two days afterward, the British Consul, the : Hon. Mr. Wilkin* arrived at this place. After listening to Fenwick’s story, and having a Icpg consultation with Messrs. Lincoln and Stanbu ry, he took him to Chicago and employed him in his office. Meantime, the Consol wrote to Eng land, making inquiries id regard to Sir John crswere notlong sommnnd.

I / The Prince of Wales; while traveling in this cduntry, it will be recollected, stopped at Chi cago. There the. Consul introduced our hero to the Prince, who became! convinced of the truth of bis statement He accompanied the Prince in his.tour through the United States, and went with him to England. : On arriving there, out young hero proceeded immediately to his ancestral hall, where he was informed by the servants that one of his aunts, who had caused him and bis mother so much trouble and unhappiness, was now on her death bed, attended by'hOr brother Sir. John Fenwick. He entered the cbamher of death 1 The ghast ly vision of the dying woman became stilLghast liet when she beheld the hoy whom she and her sister had so deeply wronged. She immediately confessed that the talei they bad invented to blast the reputation of ]pady Clara and ruin her innocent son, was witjhout foundation—that Clara was a good and tjrue wife, till he drove her away and spurned her.' Lord Fenwiok fol ded bis longjlust son tp bis heart, and shed tears over him. The woman died in a few mo ments after halting the confession.

Extract* from & Private Letter; . * Cshp Diten, Arlington Va. Sept. 5,18611 Dear Brother and Sister. —The box that left Tioga so long ago, did not find its way to the Camp of the 23d, last evening. The delay was occasioned by'the kindues of the Ex press Agent at Washington, who thinking to have it reach us earlier than it otherwise sf onld, forwarded it to the Government Office. We did not think to send there to see about it until yes terday ; but now the box is here, and 1 am hap py to inform you tbat.the contents were as fresh and nice as when they started from the hands of our far distant friends. It is out of the question for me to find language, .with which to express our thanksfor the Cake, Cheese, Butter, Wine, Pickels, &a., &c. I can only say to you one and all, accept a soldier’s thanks Which are always “few in words, but from the heart.",. , George Stratton and myself attended to the distribution of the packages to their several owners. Each one was {received with smiles, and emotions, thiit can arise only in the bosom ' of those who are far removed from friends, and suddenly, ns if. by magic, receive same token assuring them that they are remembered by 'the “dear ones at home.”; To know, thaitwe are remembered by those wojhaye left behind us, is enough to repay us/or the privations of camp !life,.nhd the miseries that always attendastate of War. Copt. Dingledey’s box was very nice, and he returns a thousand thanks. I doubt not you will receive from him a note of acknowledge ment; z, , •,j, ■ , Dr. Churchill, Surgeonlto our Regiment) is a man of no mean proportions of body, as well as mind, and as soon as the box was opened, he seised upon, and now holds as personal proper ty the pair of long, gray stockings. Thera is on use of talking, for be j will keep and wear those stockings, and I doubt not feels grateful to l)ie lady who sent them. The camp shirt you sent me, is the shirt of the camp! . There is only one trouble about it; that is, I will have to wear'it out at one wearing, for-our Assistant Surgeon, Dr. Madill, has given me due notice that if he finds it off tpy back;, he will ‘'hawk strike,” and appropriate it to bis own use; so you may consider the shirt and your correspon dent as “one and inaeper«ble,‘”'at least, for a term of weeks. , The patients in the Hospital wish me to re turn their most sincere thanks to Dr. Hatha way for the Wine. • As soon as I had drawn the cork, I gave eaclt'patient in the wards, the priv ilege of testing its merits, and told them where it came from. 1 know Hot which done them the most good, the power of the thought that it came from the bands, of one who feels an inter est in the wellfare of oar sick and suffering sol diers, but I do know that as they tasted the wine and beard from whence it came, the conn-, tenance of each one brightened up as tbqugh some pleasing memory of their child-hood days had flitted across the mind. Gen. Rutlgr has' done a good thing on the Coast, and if report is , to.be depended upon, death btts done a good thing'in Richmond. Jeff, Davis is said to be dead. If he is, we will re turn our most unfeigned thanks. If he is notj we will pray for such a dispensation of Provi dence to take place immediately, forasmuch as I ,hate traitors, I had rather see them .die a nab ural neatb, than to see them suffer tfce .conse quences of their wicked deeds. Death is upon the track of the leaders of this miserable South ern Confederacy, and if they can manage to die a natural death before a legal and just ret ribution overtakes them, it will seem to be the better for them. But thetf we must remember that after death cometh the Judgement. I can not imagine what punishment will be out to such men ns Davis, Stevens & Co., but cer tainly the Bible tells of qpthing terrible enough for u them. , , , Why do people of the North allow their lopal papers to continue the ory of peace, peace. "We in the army know of no peace, except that which must finally come by an i unconditional surrender and laying down, of arms on the part of the Rebels; Yes, we ask, and must have more than this—rebellion must be given over, to the United States Authorities, and the Rebel Army, must every man of them, return to their sworn allegiance to the Stars and Stripes.— When the grand, army of the Union returns home, there will no£ be a “seven stared and three bared” flag left tipon southern soil unless we choose to leave a few scattering ones to warn future generations of. the dangers and insubordination of rebellion.

His courage and coolness is undoubted, fie J 8 a working Saddle inspecting the condition of the camps in his part of Virginia.
