A brave woman.
--A friend has communicated to us the following particulars, showing the heroism of a lady (Mrs. Julia H, Waugh) in Johnson county, East Tennessee, which entitles her to a place among the bravest of the brave.
About the 10th of August a mob of about 150 men in all, led by Johnson, Grayson Locke and others commended their depredations and insults in the county above named, near the North Carolina line, hunting down the friends of the Confederate Government and forcing the wemet and turned back from their purpose some fifty or sixty desperate men.
It was about this time that the militia of Ashe, Watauga and other counties on the western line of this State, turned out in such large numbers to meet the Lincolnites of East Tennessee.
Mr. Waugh is, we believe, a native of North Carolina, and connected with the Waughs of Forsyth and other counties in the north western part of the State.
His wife is a brave and glorious woman.--Raleigh (N. C.) Standard, 14th.
