BY JOHN G. WHlTTIKIt.
T"p from the meadows rich with corn,
Clear in the cool September morn,
The clustered spires of Frederick stand,
Green walled by the hills of Maryland.
Round about them orchards sweep,
Apple and peach-trees fruited deep,
Fair as a garden of the Lord
To the eyes of the famish'd rebel horde.
On that pleasant morn of the earlv fall
When Lee marched over the mountain-wall.
Over the mountains winding down,
Horse and foot, into Frederick town,
Forty flags with their silver stars,
Forty flags with their crimson bars,
Flapped in the morning wind; the sun
Of noon looked down, and saw not one.
lp rose old H; rbara Frietchie then,
Bowed with her fourscore years and ten
Bravest of all in Frederick town,
She took up the flag the men hauled down ;
In her attic window the staff she set.
To show that one heart was loyal yet.
I "p the street came the rbel tread, .
Stonewall Jackson riding ahead.
I'nder his slouch hat left and right
He glanced; the old Hag met his sight.
"Halt!" the dust-brown ranks stood fast
'Fire!" out blazed the rifle blast.
It shivered the window, pane and sash;
It rent the banner with seam and gash.
Quick as it fell from the broken stuff,
Dame Barbara snatched the silken scarf;
She leaned far out of the window-sill,
And shook it forth with a royal will.
':Shoit, if you must, this gray old head,
But spare your country's fag." she said.
A shade of sadness, a blush of shame,
Over the face of the leader came ;
The nobler nature within him stirred
To life by that woman's deed and word !
"Who touches a hair of yon gray head
Dies like a dog ! March on !" he said.
All day long through Frederick street
Sounded the tread of marching feet :
All day long that free flag tossed
Over the heads" of the rebel host.
Ever its t)rn folds rose and fell
On the loyal winds that loved it well;
And through the hill gaps sunset light
Shone over it with a warm good-night.
Barbara Frietchie's work is o'er,
And the rebel rides on his raids no more.
Honor to her! and let a tear
Fall, for her sake, on Stonewall s bier.
Over Barbara Frietchie's grave
Flag of Freedom and L'nion, wave!
Peace and order and beauty draw
Round thy symbol of light and law;
And ever the stars above look down
On thy stars below at Frederick town !

THE TELL-TALE VISION.
"murdkr wiil out!
'Tia the kind of a night for a ghostly
and mysterious story, and if you will listen
patiently. I will tell you one which took
place well nish thirty years ago, away up
yonder, on th -bleak moors of Assynt,
across the Sutherland hills. Barren
moorlands, and crav, sterile beaches, with
flinty sands ; troops of forlorn pines along
the "hill sides, where the red deer keeps
his wards ; rents of blue sea sprinkled with
green, desolate islands a "God-forgotten
land," as Sidney Smith would say. Thir
ty years ago, however, the monotonous
Jives of the simple islanders were rudely
disturbed by one of those startling crimes
which eeem to belong more peculiarly to
an advanced and complicated civilization.
The case still figures in the criminal
records as the Assynt murder, and presents
many features of curious and picturesque
interest.
John McDonald, a well known itinerant
pedlar, had, on a dreary winter
year, attended a
rustic wedding and merry making at the
"farm town" of Assynt, where, anions: the
fair damsels assembled, he had contrived
considerably to lighten his pack. No one
had observed him leave, and for a month
afterwards nothing was heard of his
movements. His absence excited no
surprise among the country people, as it
was supposed that he had gone to visit his
relations, who lived in Rosshire. They,
however, ignorant of his movements, and
seeing him only at distant intervals, were,
of course, not troubled at his customary
absence, and the pedlar might have been
away much longer before any suspicions
could have been excited. But exactly
lour weeks after the festivities at Assynt,
a iarm servant, passiti" a ueep ana precip
itous turn on the mountain road which
lies between the farm town and the
Clachan of Assynt, observed, by the
imperfect down light, a bundle floating
upon the water, then unusually low and
clear. A rude raft was constructed, and
with it aid the neighbors dragged the
corrupted body ot a human being to the
shore. Though much decomposed, all
who were present immediately recognized
the body of the missing pedlar. The
clothes were the same which he had worn
when last seen, but the pockets had been
carelully. turned out and rifled, and
nothing of any value was found on the
corpse.
Notwithstanding these suspicious ap
pearances, the simple people among whom
i i . . 1
a murder nai never been commit'ea.
concluded that the uufortunate man had
falleu accidentally into the tarn. So
confirmed were they in this opinion, that
they at once buried the body, and John
McDonald and the tragedy connected
with him was in a fair WRy of being for
20tten. The parish minister, however,
had accidentally laarned of the discovery,
and he forthwith forwarded information
to the proper authorities. The sheriff of
the county and the public prosecutor
immediately came down to the district,
and commenced a searching investigation.
Under the guidance ot John Cameron,
the schoolmaster, who was recommended
to them by the minister as a skillful and
trusty person, on whom perlect reliance
could be placed, and accompanied by the
medical men of the island, the sheriff
visited the spot where McDonald's body
had been buried. It was disinterred in
his presence, and, on examination, several
deep wounds were discovered on the back
of the head, any one of which, the doctors
reported, would have been suiucient to
cause his death. Coupled with the fact
that the clothes had bceu plundered, no
reasonable doubt could remain that a
murder had been committed. It was well
known in the island that McDonald, who
had made considerable money, carried his
fortune on his back banks and ttock
being unknown institutions to these
primitive people. IJut for many days all
the ingenuity of the law was bafiled to
obtain any trace of the murderer. No one
had been seen with McDouald after he
left Assynt; no article of any kind could
be identified as his property. The search
appeared fruitless. Several murders,
had been committed in the
northern counties; they had remained j
unpunished : it was, therefore, a matter of
much public importauce mat in mis case
an example should be made. The sheriff
established himself en jxrmuncnce at a
roadside hostel in the vicinity, and an
nounced his determination to examine
every resident iu the island.
During these investigations the sheriff
was invariably accompanied by Cameron,
who, through his acquaintance with the
Gaelic tongue, and his knowledge of the
inhabitants, proved of great assistance as
an interpreter. One moruing, however,
the sheriff went down to the district Post
Office alone, Cameron being for the first
time absent. During a desultory conver
sation, the post master incideutaJly stated
that soon after the date of the murder he
had given change for a 10 Bank of
England note to a person who he did not
think should have had so much money in
his possession. Who was this? John
Cameron, the schoolmaster. Cameron
was sent for, was asked how he Had come
to have the money in question, and
peremptorily denied any knowledge of the
transaction. His statement, though made
without apparent embarrassment, excited
suspicion, and lie was arrested, charged
with the murder.
For some time, however, no facts
appeared to confirm the suspicion. Cam
eron's house,, which stood on a hillside by
itself, was minutely seirched, but none of
the pedlar's property was found in it. His
sister, who lived with him, was evidently
perfectly ignorant and innocent. She was
a youDg and . pretty girl, and, lor her
station in life, intelligent and cultivated.
When told of the charge, ehe indignantly
about this time of the
refused to believe that her brother was
guilty, and in deep distress followed him
toTprison. One or two casual incidents,
however, to .which she alluded, proved of
unhappy importance on the trial. Even
then, however, though well aware of the
fatal effect of her answers, she spoke
feovlsssly and truthfully with Spartan
like honesty metinjr out her "brother's
doom. A tearful dilemma, indeed one
where even falsehood cannot be rigorously
judged, but where stern and rigid truth
cannot be too highly esteemed A noble
Highland heroine, with her bloodless lips
and white, tearless face all honor to the
gentle womanhood that is yet too noble iu
its maiden honesty for a lie !
Cameron, though unable to account sat
isfactorily for the monev, was on the
point of being liberated, when a siugular
incident occurred. A workman, M'Leod
by name, had on three successive occa-
sions, dreamed that he had seen Cameron !
follow M'Donald to the water-side, strike i
him a number of heavy blows with a
hammer, rifle his pack, cast the body into
the tarn, and conceal the articles he had
taken in a cairn near his own house. The
story was soon bruited about, and the
dreamer was brought before the Sheriff.
So strong and vivid, he said, was his J
recollection of the incidents of the dream, j
that he could undertake to point out to i
the criminal officer the exact stones under !
which the property was concealed. They
went together, and ultimately discovered
the articles in question concealed under
several large stones, which M'Leod declar
ed exactly resembled those impressed on
his memory. Here was an important fact
to begin with the property of the mur
dered man found in the immediate prox
imity of Cameron's own house. Next day
another link was obtained. A week or
two previous to his apprehension, Cameron
walked one rainy morning to the other
side of the island, got wet, and at a coun
try inn obtained from the landlady a pair
of stockings, leaving his own behind to be
dried. These were now produced, aad
after some hesitation, a cotter's wife
declared" that, from a peculiarity in the
work, she could depose that they were of
her own making : and added, that the da'
before his disappearance, the pedlar had
bought two pairs from her for his own use.
That now produced was one of them ; the
otl or was discovered in Cameron's house.
A variety of similar circumstances gradu
ally came out , aud after considerable
delay, occasioned by the difficulties of the
case, Cameron was brought to trial.
The trial took place at Inverness. It
lasted from ten o'clock on the first moru
ing of the assize, till the same hour next
day twenty-four consecutive hours, dur
ing which time judge, jury, and spectators,
sat uninterruptedly. the prime interest j
to the superstitious Highlanders lay iu the j
mysterious fact of the vision, and the seer j
was an object of special interest when he i
appeared in the witness-box. lie suffered
a severe cross examination from the pris
oner's counsel, without the substantial
value of his evidence being affected. No
oue who heard his cxamii.ation could
doubt that he was stating what ws actu
ally rrue, no one could believe (and this,
of course, was the object of the cross exam
ination) that he himself was the criminal,
or in any way implicated. It was a pro
tracted and difficult case of circumstantial
evidence. The cundles (gas was not in
those days) which had lighted them iu
their viil through the long autumu
night were extinguished, and the sun was j
high in heaven when the jury returned
into court, finding the prisoner guilty, as '
libelled. The verdict had been recorded, j
and sentence of death pronounced, when !
Cameron (who preserved throughout the
trial the most profound composure) rose, j
and with the utmost solemnity and calm- ;
ness, called God to witness that he was a i
murdered man. j
The sheriff to ' whose exertions th i
success of the prosecution was mainly t j
be attributed was making his way to his j
hotel through the excited crowd, when a i
message came to him from Cameron, re-
questing to see him. When he reached !
the cell, Cameron, who still manifested the j
same complete composure, at once said, j
"I am now going to tell you what I have j
never breathed to mortal man : the verdict ;
was quite right I did the deed!" lie
then made a full and detailed confes-ion, i
relating the whole story with perlcci
frankness a demeanor he preserved till j
his execution
The murder, he said, wa3
committed on the ni
the niht of the Assynt
wedding. He had seen M Donald leave ;
had followed him unobserved ; had made
up to him, and walked along with him to
the tarn : then with a heavy hammer
which he was carrying home, he had
struck him several blows from behind, and
after rifling the corpse, had thrown it into
the water. For some weeks it had re
mained at the bottom at least he

could see nothing of it, and he had
gone once or twice every week to look for
it. The evidence of -M'Leod surprised
and startled him. The property had
been hidden the same night a dark, wet,
misty night immediately on his return
home ; and it was impossible, he thought,
that M'Leod, with whom he was merely
acquainted, could have come by his in
formation in any natural way.
The fact is curious, and may furnish a
problem for those who are- curious in
psychological mysteries. The murder had,
of course, been the main topic of interest
in the island for many weeks it had, no
doubt, become strongly impressed on
M'Leod's imagination; some slight link
of fscr, a word or gesture, probably exis
ted ; and out of these inchoate materials
the story mijJu gradually shape itself into
a form not unlike the actual, because a
natural and logical arraneracn j of the
wn' Iatt;5 were known or surmised at tne
time. And, going on with the story to
i its close, tne dream wouiu accompany tne
; murderer alter the commission of the
; crime, depict his horror and coutritiou,
his frantic desire to put away from him
i any evidence of the accursed deed which
i lay heavy on his soul. The place where
he concealed the property was one mat ne
would naturally select out of his own
house, indeed, but not so distant from it
hut that the articles might be easily
recovered alter tne uist oread nad ueen

the unseen, and who consider a man s
muscle the best part about him, will prob
ably explain the mystery iu some such

The Heard.
Nature has supplied the most of man
kind with beards, and in very ancient
times, the use of razor upon it was un
known. In Greece, the lirst instance of
shaving occurred in the reign of Alexan
der the (Ireat. This warrior ordered the
Macedonians to Ikj shaved lest the beards
of his soldiers should afford handles to
their enemies. The sarcastic Diogcnese,
when he once saw some one whose chin
wn smrwifh- R.-iii! ; "I :im nfi-.aiil von
j think ,avc vat Ln.oimj to accuse
nature lor having made you a man and
not a woman." In Cicero's time the genu
ine beard was not worn in society. But
the barbuhi (goatee) seems Jo have been
altected by the young Komanr" swells."
The bard began to revive again in the
time of the Emperor Iladrian.t But of all
the Emicrors who wore tha ornament,
none creates so much interest in posterity
as the Emperor Julian. Ilis beard is the
most famous beard in history. Speaking
of it, he says: " I commence with my
countenance. It had nothing regular, or
particularly agreeable about it ; and out
of humor and whimsicality, and just to
punish it for not being handsome, I have
made it ugly by carrying this long and
j)CojM hcanl."
The Britons, like the ancient Gauls, al
lowed the hair to grow thick on the head ;
and, although they shaved their beards
close on the chin, wore immense tangled
moustaches, which sometimes reached to
their breasts.
It may bo presumed that the northern
nations felt the symbolic force of these
appendages ; ve have a "Wvll-known pas
sage in Tacitus about the Catti, who, he
sajs, made a general custom of what,
among other Lierman people was an
affair of private daring the letting the
" crinem barbamque" grow till they had
killed an enemy. The Normans, when
they conquered England, were well sha
ven, on the back of the head as on the
face : but the Saxons wore full beards. In
Edward II.'s, reign beards were worn ap
parent!' by persons in years, great officers
of State, and knights templars, but not
generally. Sir John Mandeville, the
traveler, wno cued A., it. lot J, was
called Sir .lohn with the Board (ncrsuma-
bly from its size.) In Edward I II.'s time
the h?y-day of chivalry, of feudal or
iiament, of Iovcoctry, of heraldry'
long heard and line mustache were in
honorable estimation, in iwcnaid il. s
reign,- the fashion continned. The beard
was " forked," and in all knightly effigies
is long and drooping on each side of the
mouth.
A sober and well governed gentleman
j of Elizabeth's time, regulated his beard as
i he did his dress, mind, manners or con-
duct. It was an index of his status or
profession ; an emblem of his feelings and
tastes a symbol to be respected like bis
coat of arms. The Reformer, John Knox,
cherished a large and profuse one, obvi
ously from its patriarchal character, from
the honor shown it in the Jewish days,
from whoso sentiment he drew his inspi
ration. The sholar. such as George Bu-
VOL. 10 .NO. 46.
chanan, wore it sometimes as
ono
who
followed Knox and Calvin.
The hair, as we all know, played an
important symbolic part in the civil wars
of Kngland ; and the same rigor which
tne I'untan exercised on tue uead ha ex
ercised on his chin, and trimmed his beard
as closely as he trimmed his locks. The
Vandyke beard is the typical ono of this
period. Peaked beards and mustacbas
were popular among the ttivaliers ; and
were at least pretty generally worn.
Deards went out of fashion for moro
than two hundred years, among the Anglo-Saxons
of Europe and America ; but
they have been revived again, and are
now cultivated and defended upon scien
tific considerations.
The mustache is approved because it ia
said to be a natural respirator ; a defense
to the lungs against the inhalation of dust
and the beard is defended as a protection
for the throat against cold. It has been
recommended that all preachers who are
subject to throat diseases sdiould allow
their beards to grow. Tavellers in sandy
regions, millers, bakers and all mechanics
should allow the beard free play.
