A noble Woman.

--Mrs. Jane Tunstall, living near Richmond, aided by her two daughters, has made, since the commencement of the war one hundred and seventy two soldiers' garments. She laid aside the scraps left from the ‘"facings,"’ unravelled them, earded and spun the woolen part of the fabric, and has knit three strong and beautiful pairs of socks for the soldiers out of the yarn thus obtained. Can there be a scarcity of wool for the army with such an example of economy before the country? Can any nation be subdued who is blessed with such women?--Never.
