An Affecting Scene.

tFrom the Washington bepublican.I
A most affecting scene occurred at the
hospital of FIfteenih-street yesterday after.
noon, and but few dry eyes were there
among those who witnessed it. a young
soldier, named Nicholas f. Buck, whose pa
rents reside in Day ton, Ohio, Obtained few
days leave of absence from his company, a
New York, to come TO Washington for the
purpose of getting some prize money that
was due hun here. 10 company with one of
his comrades, also on the same mission, he
left New York on Tuesday mOrning, arriv-
Jog in Philadelphia iu the afternoon. While
there be concluded to wait for the eleven
O'Clock train coming south, and TO visit
young lady to whom he was engaged to be
married, and whom he had not seen for
some time He accordingly paid his sweet
heart a visit, and when the time came. after
taking sn atfeetioDate leave Of her, aad
promising, upon lie lie .css::arn from Washing
ton, TO call upon her, (when their mssriag6
was to take place) he took the night train
for Washington. His companion did not
stop in Philadelphia, but proceeded on his
journey, promising to meet him in Wash-
ington the next morning Somehow or an.
o'her, when the train was about three miles
from this city, be fell off the cars, falling
with his left leg under the wheels, which
was crushed and mangled dreadfully There
he lay for four hours along the track, until
tbe next train passed by aud picked him up.
he was almost dead with loss of blood when
found.
Upon arriving in this city, hU was taken
to The Government Hospitals on Fifth, street,
where his leg was amputated by DR.. Cooley.
He expressed a wish to see his lady love
sgain, and she was accordingly telegraphed
for yesterday. She left Philadelphia in the
eleven o'clock train for Washington, but,
owing to detention, did not arrive here un,
I'll yesterday at noon, too late to meet her
lover alive. He breathed his last early yes
terday morning. The grief of the poor girl
knew no bounds when she learned that he
who so soon was to have been her compan.
ion for life, and whom she had parted with
but few hours before in health and vigor
was no more. She cried aud wrung her
hands in the very ecstacy of despair, and
was with difficulty removed from the coffin
containing the body Of her lover, when it
became necessary to close it, and she begged
most piteously to be allowed to take it with
her to Philadelphia to have it inferred there.
This request, however, was denied her, until
his relatives in Dayton were first heard
from. The body was then removed to the
receiving vault in the Congressional burying
ground tor the time, followed by the grief
stricken girl, and by part of the regiment to
which he belonged, which is stationed at the
Navy-yard. There were bat few eyes among
the sick soldiers lying in that hospital yes.
terday that were not sntfused with tears.
