The Ohio River and Norfolk and Western railroads are completed within a few squares of this city. Catlettsburg is situated 300 miles below Pittsburgh and 150 miles above Cincinnati.

The immense output of lumber from the Big Sandy valley makes this the most important lumber market In the Ohio valley between the cities of Pittsburgh and Cincinnati. All the varieties of the finest hard wood and soft timber In the United States surround It. It Is also In the belt of the Great Hanging Kock Iron region, where more than forty furnaces have long prospered, as well as upon the skirts of the coking coal fields jutting out north and west of the Cumberland mountains and Is In the center of rich fields of Iron ore and the finest varieties of clays and sands sult- nrrTrr 1 l- 1 A 1 1 f' 00 CATLETTS BURO, KT.

The Catletts were Virginians. Sawny. the father of Horatio, came with his family to the mouth of Big Sandy early in the century. He brought negro slaves with him and was a well-to-do man. Sawny Catlett's bones lie buried in the old Catlett burying ground near the home of the late La ban T.

Henry Clay and Felix Grundy. While the Catlett house was only a plain log building, the splendid menu spread for Its guests, with the charming loveliness of the lady of the household, made It a hostelry far in advance of the day. Several of the matrons of Catlettsburg who were young misses in the days of the Catletts. say that the Catlett girls Were the most charming and lovely maidens they ever knew. The Catletts got badly In debt, and to extricate themselves they sent away one by one their slaves, and then followed on after them to the west of the Mississippi, hoping no doubt to raise enough money by the sale of the negroes to lift the mortgage from the Catlett estate.

But like nearly all such cases the scheme failed. Fry and sister, who inherited frotn Wilson, the mortgagee, the title to the property as the mortgage had been closed, came upon the scene. Fry was a sickly. Irritable man and for some time would neither sell as a whole nor lay It off Into town lots. But In 1849.

being in need of ready cash, he laid out the town of Catlettsburg from Catlett's creek to Division street, and In less than two years sold the remainder to a syndicate consisting of John Culver, William Hampton, Frederick Moore, Will-lam Campbell and W. T. Nichols, who. In 1851, laid out that part of the town which Ilea above Division street. In 1847 Horatio Catlett returned to Catlettsburg.

Hearing before he came that the valuable property waa about passing from his ownership, caused his rage to boil over. On reaching the hotel, at the time kept by Levi J. Hampton, but formerly his own, he died so suddenly "Vr? i'-' V. THE COURIER-JOURNAL. LOUISVILLE.

Catlettsburg as a jobbing center is not excelled by any other city of its size on the Ohio river.

There are two dry-goods stores, two groceries, two hardware stores two queens ware houses, and one drug house in the jobbing business. D. H. Carpenter and Andrews Wolfe each do a large business annually In dry -goods. H.

A curious effect of the milk-white vail is that it heightens the fairness of a blonde face and adds a becoming tinge of duskiness to an olive complexion. It seems to have the curious quality of bringing out the typical characteristic of a good complexion.

It Is a recital of facts that read more like romance than reality, and which give an entirely different impression of that remarkable man and great soldier, whose lightninglike combinations and fierce onsets so often bore down his opponents on the field of battle.

It Is a revelation of the Inner life and character of the most wonderful man of the century, a revelation that will Increase the admiration of all for his purity and disinterestedness as a man, and his genius as a great soldier guided by firmly-flxed and Inflexible ideas and conceptions of duty. The book Is Issued from the press of the Courier-Journal Job Printing Company, Louisville, and la most charmingly edited from cover to cover. There is In it nothing of the partial and In-dlscrimtnatlng laudation of the wife. It Is a plain, simple recital of events and incidents In the life of Gen. Jackson, becomingly and modestly told by one so close to him.

and in whom It were but natural to expect extravagant praise of her hero. The book Is dedicated to Gen. Jackson's little grandchildren, Julia and Jackson Christian, children of his de-ceased daughter Julia. In the preface Mrs. Jackson says: "For many years after the death of my husband the shadow of my life was so deep, and all BIG SANDY BEAUTIES.

But time softens, if It does not heal, the bitterest sorrow; and the pleadings of his only child, after reaching womanhood finally prevailed on me to write out for her and her children my memoirs of the father she had never known on earth.

She was my inspiration, encouraging me, and delighting In every page that was written; but the work was not more than half completed when God took her to be with him whose memory she cherished with a reverence and devotion which became more intense with the development of her own pure and noble character." The Introduction is by Lieut. Gen. John B. Gordon. Of the book.

Gen. Gordon says: "The value of this book, which Insures a more complete understanding of 'Stonewall' Jackson's life and character, can, scarcely be estimated. Mrs. Jackson gives to the world, in a simple and thrilling story, a less conspicuous, but scarcely less Important, phase of the life and character of the great warrior. From no other source could have been obtained such Information and data concerning one of the most remarkable men who ever figured In the history of this country.

Hie career as a soldier was brilliant and dazzling. It had neither the dimness of a dawn, nor the fading of a twilight; it was full-orbed from first to last. Tet the philosophic historian will no longer consider the splendor of his success in war, without at the same, time contemplating the simplicity and purity, which, like a halo of light, encircled his domestic and religious life." Of Gen. Jackson's character as a sol- dler, he says: "It Is true that In delivering battle his methods might be regarded as almost "recKless by those who failed to understand him, but what seemed reckless audacity was the essence of prudence. His eye had caught at a glance the entire situation, and his genius, with marvelous celerity and accuracy, had weighed and measured all the chances of success or failure.

He hurled his whole army like a thunderbolt against the opposing lines and thus ended the battle at a single blow. The victory was won at the least possible cost of blood and life to his army. Perhaps In quickness of movement, in the originality and peculiar quality of bis genius. Gen. Jackson more resembled Napoleon Bonaparte than any of the great warriors of the past.

But It would be a reckless sacrilege to compare, as a man, the character of Napoleon to that of the matchless Jackson. In this record they were as wide apart as the poles." Gen. Jackson was of Scotch-Irish I II I I ITTTT I ITT 1 1 II I II like most of those who settled In the Valley of Virginia. His boyhood was not a happy one nor calculated to develop to the highest degree those sterling attributes which made him famous in after life. He lost his father at the age of three years, and tils mother waa left without a home or means of support.

She married again to a clever gentleman, but one who had no means, and Thomas went to live with relatives. Soon afterward she died and he was doubly orphaned. The story of his trials and troubles from this time on to his appointment as a cadet at West Point Is graphically told. How he was induced by an elder brother to run away from his uncle's house, passing down the Ohio to the vicinity of Pad can, where they followed for some months, until emaciated with malaria, the occupation of chopping cord-wood for steamboats. Then their return home and their penitence and forgiveness by the uncle.

At West Point, though deficient In preparation, young Jackson made up for it in hard and constant study. He was very determined In accomplishing all he undertook. "His temper waa cheerful and generous, and his truthfulness waa proverbial. There waa an instinctive courtesy in his conduct; his sense of justice was very strong, and as long as he met with fair treatment from his associates, he waa gentle and peaceful, but he was quick to resent an insult, and In combat would never yield to defeat." His four years at West Point, from 1842 to 1848. are entertainingly described.

To make up for his deficiency in preparation, he would lie down on the floor 'after "taps" and study hard for hours by the dim light of a fire. Such evident determination to succeed made a favorable Impression in his favor. MISS MARIE BROMLET. MISS MAUDE MARCUM. While at West Point he wrote out for his guidance a number of religious and moral maxims.

Graduating during the war with Mexico, young Jackson's whole class was ordered to the field. He was ordered to the First Artillery and assigned to Magruders Battery, with which he did gallant service at Cherubasco, Chapul tepee, and on other fields. So conspicuous was his conduct that he rapidly rose to the ranks of Captain and Major. At the conclusion of the war he returned home and was later selected as Professor of Natural and Experimental Philosophy and Artillery Tactics at the Virginia Military Institute, in 185L Here he remained until the storm of Civil War broke over the country. It was Major Jackson's connection with the Virginia Military Institute which opened for him his career in the war.

It identified him with the Valley, and gave him Valley men for his soldiers. It made him familiar with the ground upon which his earliest victories were won. While at the institute he married; first to a Miss Elinor Junkln, a daughter of tne nev. ur. junkin.

President of the Institute; afterward to Miss Mary Anna MArrlmn. nt Nnrlh ranolr. k. a devout member of the Presbyterian church, and In 1855 opened a Sunday- school for the instruction of negroes, He taught his own servants to read, end was much concerned about their moral and spiritual welfare. His company was one of those ordered to act as a guard at the execution of John Brown, and his description of this exciting event is graphically told by him in a letter to his wife.

He varied his college duUes with gardening and farming, in which he took great delight. In speaking or writing to his wife about any property he always referred to it as hers. Maj. Jackson was greatly distressed over the approaching crisis and opposed to secession. He contended that the South should fight for her rights in the Union, and not out of It.

But when Virginia at last oast in her lot with the other seceding States he drew his sword in her defense, and none ever followed the fortunes of the Lost Cause more unselfishly and devotedly. "At this time." says Mrs. Jackson, "he was strongly for the Union, but at the same time he was a firm States-rights man. In politics he had always been Democrat, but he waa never a very strong partisan, and took no part In the political contest of 1860, except to cast his vote for John C. Breckinridge." At last the long-dreaded storm broke, and Maj.

Jackson threw his sword Into the scale on the side of the South. He was ordered to Richmond with the advanced students of the Military Institute, where they were employed as drill-masters for the fast assembling troops. It was April 21. 186L that Maj. Jackson received an order from "Honest John Letcher," Governor of Virginia, to repair to Richmond with his cadets, and before starting he knelt and prayed that the war might be averted.

After drilling for some time at Richmond he was appointed to the engineer rv I SECTION 3 CATLETTSBURG, AND CLERK'S OFFICE. (Photographed by H. Thomas Huff.) department. This did not suit his active temperament and he was made a Colonel of State troops and ordered to Harper's Ferry to take command. Here was a Held to his taste, and It was not long until the name of Jackson was upon every lip.

"It was his maxim that. In war, mystery was the key to success," and guided by this be kept his plans and purposes to himself. While at Harper's Ferry a committee from the Maryland Legislature visited him to ascertain his plans, and in reply to an inquiry as to how many troops be had, he returned the diplomatic reply: "I should be glad if Lincoln thought I had 15.000." So scrupulous was he in concealing his plans that It was rarely any of his subordinates knew what he proposed doing next. But they trusted him implicitly and followed him without a murmur. They soon learned that there would al ways be active business while "Old Jack" commanded them, and their affection for him was remarkable.

No lover was ever more devoted or regular In correspondence with the object of his affections than was Gen. Jackson with his wife, nor lavished upon her more endearing terms. She was constantly in his thoughts, and in these frequent letters to her, copiously copied In the book, are revealed the inner life and soul of the great Captain, showing the depth, the tenderness and the deep religious nature of him who was "as mild as a dove in peace, and as terrible aa a thunderbolt In war." To him she waa always his "Little One," or "Little Woman." his "Darling E8posito," an endearing Spanish term he learned while in Whenever, through his matchless leadership his troops proved successful, he always ascribed the results to "the goodness of God." or the "Divine Providence." For himself he claimed nothing. There was no vain glory of jealousy In his nature, no envy of the success of others. A true Christian warrior, "living or dying he was the Lord's." The "affection of his troops for him was most beautiful to behold." To them he gave all the credit arrogating nothing to himself.

On October 7, 1861. Gen. Jackson had been made a Major General and it was not long until he was promoted to a Lieutenant Generalship. In the field he kept up with great regularity his habit of worship, and morning and nights he knelt and fervently implored the blessing of God upon his enterprises and the cause of' the South. He was, he said, solicitous for the religious welfare of all under him, and wanted his men to be "good soldiers of the Cross as well as good soldiers of their country." Therefore he lost no opportunity of holding divine services in camp.

His devbted negro servant, "Old Jim," declared that he could "always tell what was gwine to happen by de way de Glneral prayed." If he prayed long and often "dar was gwine to be hot business soon, sho' nufl." Being appointed to the command of the Valley district, he bade his old soldiers an affectionate farewell and repaired to his nejv command at Winchester, where he was afterward joined by them. The parting was an affecting one. Here commenced that series of matchless movements which astonished the world and drove Fremont. Banks, Shields and other Federal commanders In precipitate retreat back toward Washington. Winchester, Cross Keys, Port Republic and other names were written brilliantly upon the banners of the marvelous soldier.

Speaking of these operations. Gen. Ewell said: "When he commenced them I thought him crazy; before he ended them 1 thought him Inspired." Next followed the battle of Williamsburg, where Johnston was wounded and Lee took the position of Commander-in-Chief, a position he held until the last great act In the drama, at Appomattox. Next came the desperate fighting at Cold Harbor. Malvern Hill.

Cedar Run -and Second Manassas, followed by the campaign. In the space of three months Jackson had swept down the valley, fought and won the battle of Keys and Port Republic; had marched to Richmond and borne a conspicuous part in the seven-days' battles; then turned north and won the battle of Cedar Run. and Second Manassas; after a march to Frederick he returned, to Harper's Ferry, thus completing a circuit "so full of toll, heroism and vie- tory as to appear almost Incredible." And at last, Chancellorsville, where a volley from his own men struck him down as his brilliant career had been crowned by Its most brilliant feat the famous flank attack upon Hooker. Dr. McGuire gives a most graphic account of Gen.

Jackson's death. Says he: "During this splendid charge Jackson was the impersonation of military enthusiasm, dashing on at the head Of his men, with the words of command. 'Press on!" continually ringing from his lips. He leaned forward upon his horse, and waved his hand, as though by its single strength toe were trying to Impel his men As cheer after cheer rose from the Confederate line, announcing new successes, his flashing eyes ano glowing nee KB showed bow deeply he was and he was ob- served to frequently look upward and lift hi rtirht KnH Viu and thanksgiving. His flank move- ment was a brilliant success the enemy had been surprised and driven back In confusion." CATLETTSBURG.

a. In the charge his men had become mixed with other commands and he halted to reform his lines. He rode for-ward to make a personal reconnaissance of his front. Pressed In front by Hooker turned upon Jackson in his rear. Gen.

'Jackson, accompanied by part of his staff and several couriers, rode forward about a hundred yards. on the pike, in the direction of the enemy, when he was fired on by a volley of musketry from his right front- This fire was from the enemy. His attention was called to his great danger, but he coolly replied: "There Is no danger, the enemy Is routed. Go back and tell Gen. Hill to press on." He then left the road and rode to the left rear.

Coming in front of his own line, his men mistook him for the enemy and fired. From this volley he received bis mortal wounds, his right hand being shattered, his arm broken in two places, and an artery severed. He was assisted by his special officer, Capt. Wllbourne, to dismount. By this fire Capt.

Boswell and several others were killed. The wounded chieftain and placed on a litter and borne to the rear. One of those who carried It was stricken down by a bullet and Gen. Jackson fell to the ground, moaning from the pain and severe shock; After great exertion he was placed in an ambulance and taken to the Corps Flela Infirmary, where, lingering for several days he died, tenderly watched by the "little woman" so dear to his heart, who came quickly to him when she heard of his misfortune. His last words on the battlefield, while he lay upon the litter suffering excruciatingly, were: "You CATLETTSBURG.

M. J. GOBLE. (Cashier Big Sandy National Bank,) must hold your ground. Pender; you must hold your ground, sir!" -it was the last order given by the hero of no many battles.

And after tenderly glancing up at his baby and heartbroken "little woman." he relapsed into delirium, during which he exclaimed: "Let us cross over the river and rest under the shade of the trees." These were the last words that fell from his lips. Beautiful and pathetic Is the story told by his devoted wife of his death.
