TOE DEAD PICKET.—On the field yesterday, on
the left near Tilton, where our cavalry engaged the
enemy, a beautiful garden, clothed in all the loveliness
that rare plants and Southern flowers could give at,
attracted my attention, and I was drawn to it. The
house
had been deserted by its owners, and the smiling
magnolias and roses seemed to stand guard over the
deserted premises. I entered through an open gate,
stooped to pluck a rose from a bush, when I discovered
one of the enemy's pickets lying partially covered by the
grass and bushes—dead. lie was a noble-looking mau sad
upon his countenance there seemed to rest the remnant of
a smile. The right hand clasped a rose, which he was in
the act of severing from its stem when he received the
messenger of death. In the afternoon the cavalry dug a
narrow grave, and, with Federal soldiers for
hill-palbearers,
he was laid to rest, the rose still clasped in stiffened
hand. Nothing was found to identify him.-41,1„i„n

murder the boatswain's mate of the ship Norseman in her

board. Rising in the water, he asked if his victim was
dead, and getting his answer, dived down and was never
seen again.--Sirai(3 Times.
