A Tennessee Veteran Who Fought ‘With Jackson at New Orleans. Correspondence Cincinnati Gazette. Asa Jordan was torn in South Carolina on the 10th day of Novem- ber 1775, consequently is in his 107 year. Atan early age he re- moved with his parents to Georgia, and during the winter of 1802 mar- ried Miss Patsy Greer, his present wite, then in her sixteenth year. At the outbreak of the Indian war in Florida Asa enlisted in Gibson’s battalion, and served under General Jackson. He was present when Weatherford, the vanqnished chiet, came into camp and asked for peace forthe remnant of his people. He had many adventures with the In- dians, and on more than one occa- sion felt for his ‘*hair.”’ During the war of 1812 he enlisted again under his old commander, and hbelped to render Tennessee immertal behind the bales of cotton at New Orleans Whole companies, he says, were swept away at every discharge, but still on they came, only to meet the fate of their fallencomrades. After peace was declared Jordan removed with his family to Bledsoe county, Tenn., cast aside his musket, and became an honest, sober citizen of the great commonwealth he helped to defend. ‘The torest gradually disappeared before his industrious hand. A hard working man, yet he had no desire to accumulate proper- ty of any kind in his young days. He reared several children, some ot whom are ministers. During the year 1840 he was thrown from a young horse against a stump, break- ing several of his mbs and injuring one of his-lungs badly. {Shortly after his recovery he got into a diffi- culty with a host ot slave holders; stnking right and left, he won the day in true Heenan style. Foul play was shown, however, and a huge negro was employed to slip up behind Jordan and strike him on the back of the head with a long bottle filled with rum. This stroke was almost fatal, and doubtless would have resulted so but for: good care and attention. Shortly after this occurrance he removed to Waldren’s Ridge, where he now hives, and owns about 1,000 acres of land. During the late civil war he was a warm Union man, but too old to take an active part. He has applied for a pension, but so far he has fail- ed to procure his rights. He is in- teresting and magnetic in conversa- tion, loves company, and nurses his great-grandchildren. He voted for the Garfield electors, and at the election heped and believed he would live to help elect another | President. Sedatia Democrat. John Stout was the pilot of the Robert E. Lee, on duty at the time when the fire broke out. He never left the wheel, but stood there firm | in the courage which does not shrink | even in the tace of the worst degths. ‘| The hope and confidence which the example of brayery ever gives to those in terror who behold it, sprung up in the héarts of the passengers. All who were saved owe their lives tothis cool and undismayed hero. Not until the boat had struct the shore, and after he had given notifi- cation of the tact to the engineer, - did this undaunted soul quit his post Ortake his strong hand from the wheel, though the flames were rag- ing around him on every side.

Beaver, inthis (Oakland) county, was awakened at 12 o’clock Sunday | night by hearing a slight noise in his | bedroom, and almost at the same} moment was seized by the throat by | one of three masked men presen‘, and a demand made for his money. His struggles to free himself raised | the hired girl, who was sleeping in} an adjoining room, also a foolish boy | and Mrs. Sturgis, who is a confirmed | invalid. When the attention of the | other two masked men was directed towards them they were pulled out of their beds and tied to a post of the bedstead, with the admonition that | if any screaming was done they | would be summarily daelt with. A | demand was again made upon M. Sturgis for his money, and again re- fusing, he was felled to the floor, kicked and finally tied up with his | wife and hired girl. The house was | ransacked, and $160takan. Think- ing the old man had more money, | the robbers:took pinchers and _ to’ tured him, applying fire tu his flesh and tearing his toe nails out by the roots. The burglars then left and | went to the house of a neighbor of Sturgis, stole a valuable horse, took a whip at another place and_ hitched the animal to Mr. Sturgis’ buggy and drove off towards Detroit. Mrs. Sturgis succeeded in releasing her- self at 3 a. m., and after treeing the rest of the family an alarm was given. Mr. Sturgis js confined in bed from the injuries received, and his recovery is doubttul. The officers are in pur. | suit of the villians, and if caught in this vicinity it is thought no mercy will be shown them. the to {Both the Compound and Blood Purifier are pre pared at 233 and £35 Western Avenue, Lynn, Mass, Price of either, $1.
