knew the man quite well, and amdtted he
was so good shot that they did not care to
expose themselves too freely. All their balls
fell short Of the man, and after he had re-
ceived three or four rounds from each, he
raised his rifle, down went the Chasseurs and
somebody else; ''ping" few the oall through

behind which the foremost Chassenr was

piece of lead, quite fattcned out and broken,
and showed it TO their comrades, and then
they resumed their practice, the result Of
which did not wait further to ascertain
Many of the Russian rAcmen are excellent
shots, but the majority OF them are not equal
to our own or to the French Chasseurs. An
amateur in one of the batteries, anxious to
see what kind of shooting the enemy would
make, held his "wide awake" just above the
parapet; immediately, two bullets went
through it, and one OF them took Il fancy to
the geutleman's fore finger and to bit of
another finger, aud carried them away
with it, so that the unfortunate experiment

on the question Of Russian sharpshoot.
