Turner Ashby. the Mower of the Vir

In them as their own charming and
warm hearted hospitality. The youth
of the Old Dominion who can sit a sad
dle in a fox chase, couch a trne lance in
a tournament and take a five rail fence
- in a steeple race commands the respect
of his fellows and holds a prior lien
upon the heart of the fairest girl in his
neighborhood. -
Nowhere in the sonth today can be
seen more splendid exhibitions of the

chiefly devoted to stock rawing and

A 8TALWART PRELATE WHO WOULD
NOT 08EY HIS MAJESTY. .
The Kantian Uishop Ambrolw, of Pens.
Gave II l Baler at Terrific Reception
ob the Occasion of a Distinguished
Visit & Made the Czar Obey.
Bishop Ambroise was an arxtraordiaary
uan, renowned for the firmness of his
character, the depth of his erudition
ud the narrowness of his views. The
mm of a simple deacon, he owed his ele
vation to his oratorical talent, his his
torical works, and especially his ascetic
virtues. . He lived in his episcopal palace
with the austere habits that had en
deared him to the people. He dressed
like a simple peasant, lived ma cell in
his palace, and his principal, diet con
sisted of cabbage and radishes. In fact
he fared like the poorest moujUch but
for all that he had the strength of a
giant. His salary of 8,000 or 10,000
roubles he distributed among the poor,
giving right and left, and never refusing
charity to the hosts of beggars that al
ways swarmed around him,
In 1831, Alexander I announced that
he intended to visit Pensa; bnt if he
knew the reception that was in store for
him he would have tried some other
town. The governor sent the chief of
police to the bishop, to request him to
clean his palace before the arrival of the
czar. -
"All right, the bishop said, "1 can
get the mud in front of the place cleared
away, but where can 1 hide your head
and the governor's head? It would be
useless to bury them in the ground; the
odor of your actions would still perme
ate the whole place."
Of course the two officials were furious,
but there was no help for them: Ambroise
was too powerful. When the czar ar
rived the governor gave orders to the
archbishop to come with all his clergy
and receive the emperor' at the front en
trance to the cathedral; but that was
just what he would not do. ' He massed
his clergy with all their banners at a side
door on the southern side. To the re
monstrances of the governor he replied,
"1 am the archbishop, and I alone give
orders here."
TANKING TUB CZAR UPSTAtES.
The civil authorities were crouDed at
the front entrance. The czar, naturally
enough, went to the place , where the
banners were. There were some rather
steep steps in front of the sido door and
the czar complained that his legs were
weak and -that he would prefer to enter
the church through some other door.
"Nonsense!" the bishop exclaimed.
The weakness of your legs doesn't pre
vent yon from dancing. Come!"
Seizing him by the arm the powerful
bishop yanked his'majesty no the stens.
At the threshold the czar bent down to-
kiss the image that the priest presented.
ui mm, one to tno utter astonishment of
the crowd, the bishop, still holding, him
by the arm, forced him to bow down al
most to the ground. The czar thought
that was enough, so he again attempted
to mss me imago, "isol three times!'
said the bishop. The czar had to obey
and bow twice more before ho was per
mitted to kiss the holy image.
1 hat, however, was only tha besrinnina:
of his troubles. After having heard the
Te Deum in the cathedral, the czar re
tired to the apartments that had been
carefully prepared for him by the gover
nor, ana was about to enjoy his first nap
when all the bells of the churches burst
out with a terrific clangor. The arch
bishop, accompanied by his chapter and
an immense crowd, all chanting loud
enougn to take the roof off, presented
himself before the governor's residence
and announced his intention -to purify
the rooms occupied by the czar by
sprinkling them with holy water. Alex
ander I sent his adjutant to the terrible
prelate to tell him that his majesty was
fatigued and was unable to receive him
"You are the adjutant of the czar of
this earth," the bishop said, "but I am
the adjutant of the czar of heaven." "
SPRtVKLINQ THE CZAIL
The yonng man refused to admit him.
and the mighty, bishop grabbed him by
the collar, tossed him back thirty foe tin
the rear and walked majestically into
the czar's room.
"1 will haye you arrested," the kov-
ernor shouted, in a furious rage.
"J. here is not power enough in the
whole world," the uishop responded, "to
arrest the cross of God."
Alexander had to submit. Hi rooms
were thoroughly sprinkled, after which
he was compelled to listen to an inter
minable sermon on the evils of self love
and the passion for luxury. On leaving
the emperor, the archbishop proceeded
once more to the cathedral for the even
ing ofiice. At 10 o'clocfc the bells rang
out a second time. Then tho czar sent
word to the archbishop to stop the rinsr--
ing of the bells for the third time, which
was the old - Russian custom: but Am
broise would not yield an inch. He was
the adjutant of the czar of heaven, and
he would take no orders from a lesser
potentate. So an hour later the bells be
gan a dreadful racket for the third time.
The next morning his majesty had to
review his troops, and, as he wished to
hear mass first, he dispatched his ad
jutant to the 'bishop with an order to
celebrate mass at 6 o'clock and make
the services as brief as possible. .
"Tell the czar, Ambroise said to the
adjutant, "that service will be at 7
o'clock, as usual,, and . thatit .will. - be
neither longer nor shorter than usual.
bat strictly According to the Jaws of the
church."
; He kept his word. The czar, and hi
troops had to wait: Of course his ma
jesty had his- revenge.. Ambroise was
dismissed from his , office and. retired to
a "monastery, but that' did not trouble
