Tlio historian is Kennedy Marshall, of Butler, Pa., a prominent lawyer, and brother to Thomas Marshall, who some weeks ago declined a nomination on Cameron's Stale Ticket. Mr. Marshall nt the dale of the bnltie was a member of the Pennsylvania'Legislature, anil with hundreds of persons had followed tho army to see the rebels crushed by McDowell, Mr. Marshall was accom panied hy Henry J. Raymond, editor of the New- York Times, and I)r. Itus- bc II, the famous war correspondent of the London Times. “Raymond, Russell and I,\ begnu Mr. Marshall, “were seated on tho roadside, taking lunch, at 3 o’clock in the aftornocui. While; wo wero talking together wo heard locomotives whistl ing over on the Manassas Railroad. Tho trains stopped in a cut, out of sight., Pretty soon, out marched a lot of soldiers ill gray, with a stand of brigade colors, and camo a t a double- quick across the field. I t was Iiirhy Smith with the Inst installment of John son’s army from Winchester, which had eluded Patterson. Tho panic which had seized our troops when these fresh lighters hurled themselves at the Union lines, already tottering with exhaustion, was wilder than any thing in military history since three Austrian soldiers, coining out of the woods to surrender after the hat tie of Solferino, put the whole Trench army to rout for a time. Regiments that had stood up to tlieir work bravely since D o ’clock iu tho morning, melted away in a fow minutes nt the sight of tho gray charging columns. There was no knowing what force was holiiud Smith and limiter’s men did not wait to see. They took tho road to Centre- ville, pell-mell, ovey man for himself. The infantry charged their own bat- tries, cut t '10 hcrses loose, jumped on their hacks and went to tbe rear cn a gallop. Russell disappeared on Ike tide a t tho top of his speed. Raymond drifted away from me, and I did not let many pass me in the race myself. It was the further the faster, and after covering what seomod to mo about five miles, I dropped exhausted beside the road to rest. “By-nnd-by Raymond came along. He bad found his barouclio and he took me in. We whirled along in the crush of ambulances, artillery horses, privates, officers and camp-followers on foot, ladies and politicians in carriages, and 200 or 300 steers, all making the best of their way to Washington. A drove of cattle had heen driven out behind the army to ho slaughtered after the battle. They wero stampeded with the rest and added to the confusion. I got over the Long bridge at Wash ington at 9 o'clock, just as the counter sign was being given out for the night, I rode up to Willard’s Hotel, through streets crowded with people, wild with excitement over the favorable dis patches that had come in from the front. Tho brass hands were out in force, and somebody was making rousing 'On to Richmond’ speech from the balcony of the hotel. I walked into the office, under the sound of his in spiring words knowing how soon those cheers would be huslied to whispers of affright. Chadwick was keeping tho hotel then, aud as I pushed up to the desk he. stared at me, bare-headed and streaming with d irt and sweat as I was and finally recognizing me, asked me whore I had heen, and wliat was tho matter. “ ‘I come from the front. McDowell is licked out of his boots, and the wreck of our army is not far behind.’ “Chadwick dived hack into his pri vate office with a scared face, and in a few minutes came lmek and took me iD with him. “There sat Gen. Mansfield, who was in command of tho troops around Wash ington, with a bottle of champagne be fore him. ‘“Mr. Chadwick informs mo, sir, that you report our army retreating. Arc you a military man, sir?’ “ -No, sir,’ “ -Then, how do you know, sir, that they wore not merely making a change of front or executing some other mili tary mnnouvre, sir ?’ “ ‘Well, General,’ I replied ns calmly as I could, while tho grny-l aired old martinet eyed me sternly, ‘I saw whole regiments throw down their guns and take to the woods. I saw artillery men cut their horses loose from (he guns aud caissons and gallop away. 1 saw officers, men, Congressman and Texas steers running neck and neck down tho road toward Washington, nnd steers were the only things tlmt had their tails up. It may havo been a change of front, as you say, but ’ “ T don’t l-olieve a single word of it,’ broke in tbo General, who laid listened to me with evident impatience. “ ‘Good cvcuing,’ I replied, and walked out of the door. The crowd had got the nows hy this time from Chadwick, and I was almost pulled to pieces. Homebody noticed that I was wearing a gray suit, and shouted ': -He’s a rebel.’ Thero were several suggestions that I be lynched for at tempting to stimulate a rising of tho reliel element in tho city. Gen. Mans field hurried oft’ to the War Depart ment, and pretty soon a sergeant and a squad of soldiers came for me and took me to the department. Presi dent Lincoln and his entire Cabinent were there, with old Gcu. Scott, anx iously wailing for news from the front. Simon Cameron had known me as a member of the Legislature and vouch ed for my loyalty. There was very little raid while I told my story briefly. The President sat with liis head bent down upon his hand, o.ml was ev idently very much depressed .Simon Cameron, then Secretary of War, was the coolest head in the Cabinet. He nine diatcly consulted with Scott as lo hurrying re-enforcements across the Potomae, and orders wire issued to stop nil fugitives at bong Bridge. They asked me i cry few questions, but after I had told my story and was dis missed the newspaper correspondents nearly devoured me. J ust as I came out of the \Yav Department I met one of (ten. McDowell's aids bringing in tl’.e report of his eoimnnndei’s defeat.\ TWO POLITICAL BLUNDERS. HOW HAM EL WEBSTER TlVll'E M1SSI.II 1U.- COMISU PRESIDENT. “It is not generally known,” said Thurlow Weed, “how near Webster came to being President.” -It is generally known,” said I, “that he was a candidate for the Whig nom ination ihe times, and missed it overy time.” “Yes,” he acquiesced, “but ho came a good deal nearer tiiau that— a good deal nearer. I had always been among his most profound admirers, and want ed to seo him President in 1810. But it became obvious to me during tlio winter that he couldn’t get the nomi nation—that Harrison was leading. I went down to Washington early in the spring and called him into the cloak room. ‘I think I shall ho tho Whig candidate,’ he said. I expressed my doubt of it. ‘Who will be, then ?’ he asked. ‘It looks to mo like Harrison,1 I answered. He almost sneered at the idea. “ 'Why, you don’t act as if you be lieved it yourself,' he said, 'for you have chosen a Scott delegation from your own State.’ 'That was to prevent the appointment of a Clay delegation,' I said, 'anel Clay cannot be elected if nominated. But, Mr. Webster,’ I went on, T have come to Washington to get you io withdraw your name, but to ask you to accept tbo nomination for Vice- President in caso Harrison slmll he selected for tho first place.’ No, ho wouldn’t listen to such a proposal, and he refused with quite as much spirit ns tho occasion called for. So I came home, and Harrison was nominated and John Tyler was made his Vice, and hy the death of Harrison, Tyler became President a m nth after tho oloction. W ebster saev the fatal mistake lie had mado, and tho next time I saw him— lie was then Tyler’s Secretary of Stato —ho confessed it to me. ‘Well, em-h. isly enough, that wasn’t tho last of Im f ital mistakes. In 18-1.3 the. very same thing happened right over again. In 18-14 Clay hail been defeated and taken out of the way, and now Webster thought he could walk over the course. During the spring bofore the nomination I went over to Marshfield. -Well, what do you tliink of it this time?’ askeel Mr. Webster with a smile of security. “ ‘I think this time,’ I said, ‘that Gen. Taylor will bo tho man.’ “He was astounded. It didn't look so at all to him. He thought it a very wild guo«-\ ‘Do you seriously think,’ he asked, ‘tliatimeh a man can lie nom inated V I assured him that I thought it very probable. He remembere-el his former mistake and smiled, and said at last that be would consult bis two bust, friends, George Auburn of Massa chusetts and Senator Wilson of New Hampshire, and do as they mid. “They were summoned and ouinc. I met them at Mr. Webster's anel pre sented my figures. They were non plussed at first, but came finally to my conclusion that Taylor’s nominnlion was probable, and thoy joined me in advising Mr. Webster to bo content with second plaeo if tlio first should prove beyond his reach. Ho reluct antly agreed to it, and I was nutliuriz eel to seo the arrangement carrieel out. Just at that point his son Fletcher came home from town, nnd ho ridicul ed the schem- io energetically and ao bitterly that hi i father returned to his •original position, anil refused to have anything to do with my proposal. Well, tho Viet-Pi'csidenoy wont beg ging. The name of Fillnuuv was sud denly sprung on tlic- C.um-iition, and he was pint on the ticket. Taylor died iu four in mlli-i, and Fillmore becnme President, and Webder went down to Washington and served him as Heoro- tavy of State, as lu> had s?ne-l tho nc eiilental Tvlcr! I think the pair of c'uri ms mishaps did a \ond deil to sour him, and perhaps helped to make him lv.-kless in liis personal habits.” IT e w E n g l c a d T h a n k s g i v i n g s .

And here wo irv heart rolls oil'at l.i->t. bard 'in tin t would cling to it elsewhere, and feels once again grateful and j uoii;;.

Perhaps, she is the mother of grown-up sons and daughters tlmt have gone forth one hy one to rear families of tlieir own; hut she feels young as the young est of them now, and divides her heart between her offspring and hew pies for Thanksgiving. But it may be tbat tbe young are filling tho places of the old, and as young men anel maidens, old men and children, gather about the festive board, the dim cvos of age are bright ened, and'the waning strength renew ed hy tbis genial reunion. The dainties of the feast are longingly culled out for the aged pair, and them they sit eozily enjoying them as bees their honey. The grandchildren hy their side are as busy, too, as bees, feeling just now tbat itis moro blessed to re ceive than give, and making tho best of the opportunity that only comes round for them onco a year.

The living skeleton is said to have died of dyspepisia, though it is believed tho cause of his elcath, by those w ho traveled with the show this Hummer, wns nnreepiietcd affection. I t seems that his place in the side show wns near that occupied by the fat women, nnd the acquaintance, or flirta- ti ni, began hy her fanning herself, and holding the fan up to her face, and smiling with hc-r hand over the fan. Her friends say this wns a liabit she had, and that sho did not mean any thing hy it, hut tho living skeleton was mashed before' bo knew it, and one word brought on another until lie was clean gone, lie used to wink nt her, mid buy peanuts from the candy but cher fur ber, and after tlio door of the sideshow wero closed, aud the crowd had gone into tlio b ig tout, they would sit ou the rniscel pilntform anil look in to each other’s eyes with mexpu'essible tenderness, ancl it is said hy a ennvas- iiimi tlml she woulil allow hint to kiss her around the se-Jvago of tlio moutli, though he never got very near, owing to his fear that he would fall off and he all broken up. To add to the unfortunate condit ion of the living skeleton, the albino girl tell in love with him, and sho was jealous of the fat girl, nnd when the albino would come in tho tent nnd seo the fat girl holding tho skeleton on her lap), and wrappiing his legs in her shawl to keep) lliem warn), tho albino would ask her wlmt she wns eloing v. itli that glovc-strok'her in her lap). The skeleton led a regular dog's life, being compielod to sleep) at hotels in piee-es of sfmo-piipe and on pantry shelves when the hotels were full, and sreiiig tlmt liisaft'ei'tionsthathelavish- ed on the fat woman were not received as he lmil a right to cxp>ect, he became reckless, and when Ihe fat girl married a Zulu ami went with another circus, anel he tried to make up) with the al bino girl and found that sho was a colored hoy whitewashed for Iho sea son, his heart became full, and ho pined aw.ty and died. The fate of the skeleton should be a warning to boys not to starve themselves down to a shadow \v ith a view of becoming skele tons to triuul with n show. - I l m i i n r / - Im i J i n n 1. I ' l l ' , T n s B lS f i i i b l e W o R reii) Fashion kills more women than toil and sorrow. Obedience to fashion is a greater transgi'ession c.f the laws of woman's nature, a greater injury to her pip sie.tl and mental constitution, than the hardships of poverty and ne glect. The slave woman nt her task will live- aud grow old, nnd see two or threo general ions of her mistresses fade and pass away. The washer woman, with scarce a ray of hope to cheer l.n in her toils, will live to see her fimhimmblo sisters all die around her. The kitchen maid is hearty and strong, when her lady has to be nursed liko a si eh baby. It is a sad truth tlmt fnshion-pam- perosl women are almost worthless for all the good ends of human life. Thoy have b u t little force of character; they have still loss punver of moral will, and epuito as little pihysicid energy. They live for no groat pmrpose in life; they accomplish no w orthy ones. They are only cloll-forms in the hand of milliners anil servants, to be dressed and fed to ordor. They dross nobody; they feed nobody; they instruct nobody; they bless nobody. They write no books; they set no rich exanipdes of virtue and womanly life. If they roar children, servants aud nurses de> all, save to con ceive- mid givo them birth.
