ANOTHER BRILLIANT SUCCESS
The Potter journal. [volume] (Coudersport, Pa.) 1857-1872, 1862-07-23
A Daring Exploit.

A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Gazette relates the following bold exploit
in front of Chattanooga:
The army was halted to rest and to
give time for reconnaissance, in order to
learn the enemy's position and strength.
This was very difficult and dangerous
matter, owing to the nature of the ground.
Several unsuccessful attempts had been
made to procure the much desired infor-
nation, when James 7. Matteson, first
lieut., Go. G. 9th Indiana volunteers,
rode boldly up to within sixty yards of
the enemy, halted; surveyed all his
intrenchments, accurately computed his
strength in number and position, ascer-
tanned the number of his siege guns and
field artillery, then wheeled his horse aud
rode out, waving his cap triumphantly
through tremendous shower of balls,
bidding defiance to the hundreds of mis-
siles of death whistling all around, and
rode up to the General, calmly, and pleas
antly smiling, to give his information
| asked him how he escaped. "Through
the mercy of God and very bad rebel
craftsmanship" he promptly replied
laughing. This must certainly be very
true, for about three hundred guns were
fired at him at the short distance of sixty
yards, and not one took effect. He said
that the balls sounded like very large
swarm of bees around him. 1t is uni
versally admitted by all who witnessed
this exploit and are acquainted with the
circumstances, that it competes with any,
even in the annals of history.

THE REBUKE OF A CHILD.-The eve
ming that the news Of the surrender Of
Fort Donelson reached Albany striking
incident occurred at the DelaVan House.
The city was wild with joy. Newsboys
gathered rich harvest. All purchased
papers.
Quite late in the evening small lad
about seven, entered the reading room,
and cried "Fort Donelson surrendered; !;
evening papers three cents" His extreme
youth, and intelligent, pleasing manner
attracted attention.
A gentleman caught the boy, and drew
him to his side, paid liberal price for a
paper, and with repeated oaths pronoun-
ced him "rnam" "fnc 6oy;" that he
would make a general and for aught he
knew PRESIDENT? and asked his fathers
name. The lad replied, "My father is
dead" "Well, vel" said the gentleman,
81 must adopt you as my boy;" and with
renewed oaths, declared he would make
a "lawyer; and may be, sir, we'll make
Governor of the State Of NeaV York
out Of you."
His frequent profanity, yet earnest and
afectionate manner quite silenced the lad,
and he sulmissively yielded himself to
the force that held him. The gentleman
saw his depression of spirit, and kindly
stroking his head, inquiringly asked,
"Say, my son, how would you like that,
to go and live with me, and become a
man in the world 2"
The little boy kindly but firmly replied,
"I shouldn't live with a man that
swears SC"
The swearing gentleman was bit
Scores of bystanders heard it all, and saw
his modification. The boy was released
and quickly left the wounded gentleman
to pocket as best he could, the cutting
rebuke of an orphan child that he had
failed to corrupt by his thoughtless and
wicked profanity.

CURRANTs PREsERvED-Take ripe
currants free from stems weigh them,
and take the same weight of sugar; put
a teacup of sugar to each pound of it;
boil the syrup till it is hot and clear
then turn it over the fruit; let it remain
one night; then set it over the fire, and
boil gently until they are cooked and
clear; take them into the jars or pots
with skinner, boil the syrup until rich
and thick, then pour it over the fruit
Currants may be preserved with ten
pounds of fruit to seven of sugar. Take
the stems from seven pounds of the cur
rants, and crush and press the juice from
the remaining three pounds; put them
into the hot syrup, and boil until rich
and thick ; put it in pots or jars, and the
next day secure as directed.

HUMAN LIFE.-Men seldom think Of
the great event of death until the shad-
ows fall across their own path, hiding
forever from their eyes the traces Of loved
ones whose living smiles were the sun
light of existence Death is the great
antagonist of life, and the thought of the
cold tomb is the skeleton Of all feasts.
We do not want to go through the dark
valley, although It's passage may lead to
Paradise and with Charles Lamb, we dc

So God sweetened that mourner's

cloud of mourning which now rests upon
many a household, by sending the happy
assurance that the father, or son, or
brother, or lover fallen, fell in the dis

little canoe padding off to him, which
held single black man and in that con-
traband hand victory was brought to the
Army of the United States of America,
led by Burnside. He came to the Rhode
Island General, and said: This is deep

And Burnside was loyal to humanity, and
believed him. Dlsloyal to the Northern

he was loyal to the instincts Of our COM
