A Zouave Movement.

Apropos of military matters, many
unique stories ars told of Wilson's
New York Zouaves-storjes withal,
that are applied in many prints to
another body not far removed from
Philadelphia Here is one of them:
Just before their departure from
Fort Hamilton, patriotic and liber-
al gentleman entered the hall of the
Zouaves, and called for Colonel Will
son.
"That is my name. sir" said the
ex-alderman, stepping forward in a
style peculiarly his own.
"I have thought, Colonel" said
the gentleman, Of making a small
donation to yonr command, if it would
be acceptable.
Oh, certainly sir - you're very
kind, any amount will be received with
the heartfelt thanks of my gallant
boys" replied Wilson.
The kind hearted, benevolent indl-
vidual, thrust his hand into his right
breaches pocket, and then into his left,
and then into the pockets of his coat,
but to his utter establishment his
purse was missing | With chopfall-
en- countenance he looked up into the
resolute .Zouave's face, and said, with
much trepedition
Sir-sir-when I came into this
hall certainly had a purse with three
hundred dollars in it, which inten'
ded to donate to Your brave company's
fund, bat 1t is all gene, Colonel, abao-

The New Bedf,r Standard pub
fishes letter from a lady in Washing
ington, in which see speaks at length
of the respect and esteem felt for
each other by the New York Seventh
and the Ma ssacousetts Eight Regi-
ment. She relate the following inter
esting incident
There is story told by one of the
Seventh, that no man can listen TO
without tears and glow of pride in
our New England soldiers He says:
"While encamped in Maryland, / wan
dered off one day, and came to farm
house, where | saw party of those
Massachusetts fellows-well no, they
we're Rhode Island boys. but its all
the same-talking with woman who
was greatly frightened They asked
for food and she cried. %. take all
7 have, take everything. hn! spare my
sick husband. . 0 darn if !" said one
of the men, we amt going to hut
Won but We want something to eat -
But the woman persisted in being
frightened in spite Of all efforts to
reassure her. and hurried whatever
food sh., had on the table. But said
the lieutenant, when this company
stand about the table with bare heads
and tall gannt man raise his hand
and invoke Gods blessing on the
bounties spread before them, the poor
woman broke down in fit of sobbing
and crying, She had no longer any
fears, but bid them wait, and in few
moments she made hot coffee in abhn-
dance. She then emptied their can
teens of the muddy water tie contain
ed, and filed them with coffee Her
astonishment increased when they in-
sisted on paying her The lieutenant
tells this with great expression
Said he their asking a blessing took
me by surprise, and when / saw this
I felt that orr country was safe, with
such men to fight for it.
