"Hallo, quartermaster ~ shouted a man
in Secesh uniform who was coming up
the road at the top of his speed, "heIlo
MIR. Quartermaster, the enemy is coming
right down on our camp, and the general
wants you Immediately. Our army is
running like all possessed, and the gener-
al needs you to help save the plunder.-
Hurry back as hard as you can run, or
the enemy will be betwixt you and our
fellers"
Blife waited to hear no more, but broke
for his camp like quartcr-horse. When
he arrived, and found that the story was
all false, terrible was the vengeance he
vowed. But before he had time to exc
cute his threats, Floyd's army was III re-
mote part of the State.
Tt is hardly necessary to add, tRt the
messenger who sent the quartermaster off
so precipitately was an associate of Jacks s,
and that Jack had turned the quarter
masters horse with his head up the road,
and by sharp cut with a whip sent him
out of sight before Blife recovered from
his confusion.
Squire Bailey got his mule again, little
the worse for Jacks tricks, and he is now
as quiet and useful an animal as there is
in all the country. The double eagles
Jack returned with the mule, taking the
quartermaster's horse as compensation for
his services.
Jack Phillips says he would like to
have an opportunity of inquiring of the
self-sacriticing patriot of the glorious Con-
federacy whether it hurt much when the
mule kicked his hat off,

How Jack Phillips Recovered
the NssEe ErOIH, the SecesEa.
BY CAPTAIN JERE WILLIAMS.

If the stories of incidents and adven-
camps in the neighborhood of Seceshdom
could be collected in book form, they
would make a very readable work.
may send you string Of such as are afioat
in our region, at some future time at
present, / will relate one which came to
my knowledge a few days ago.
Squire Bailey had the biggest, and
best, and most docile mule in Marlin s
Bottom, and Martins Bottom is about
the biggest and best neishborhood on
Greenbrier river. Squire Bailey was in
clined to be a good Union man, and did
not entirely conceal his sentiments, not
withstanding the presence of FloyG's ar
my in the vicinity. About the time of
Floyd's "tunlultuous flight" from that
region, he was very much in need OF
transportation, and according to estab-
lishcd usages among secesh, he proceeded
to levy on the teams Of the neighboring
farmers. OF course, a Union man, ike
Squire Bailey taking time By the fore
lock, very quietly, one night, removed to
safe locality all his live stock, except
his favorite mule, which he kept for haul
ing wood and going to mill. This mule
being apparently the only support of a
large and increasing family, Squire Bal
ley fondly believed the Secesh would not
be heartless enough to rob him of it.
But Squire Bailey did not understand
Sccesh One fine morning along came
Quartermaster BliGc, accompanied by
half dozen armed men from Fioyd's ar
my Squire Bailey was standing at his
gate when Quartermastcr Blife approach
ed and commenced conversation with
him.
"Good morning Mr.-a-Mr-"
"Bailey." suggested the Squire.
ayes, Bailey; good-morning, MIR. Bai-
ley"
"Mornin'," said the Squire.
81 understand, Mr.. Bailey, that you
have q number of horses and mules which
you wish 10 dispose Of to our glorious
Confederacy."
"Mistake, sir" said Bailey, 'I have
none to sell anybody"
fBut, Mr.. Bailey, some gentlemen in
formed me yesterday that you had quito
number of horses and mules"
"If you'll believe your eyes, instead of
"some gentlemen" Mr.. Quartermaster,
you can see for yourself that have moth
in but that mule, in the log pen there,
and that can possibly Keep house with
out"
"Ah, I see the mule" said Blife,
looking through the cracks. ''1 ou'd be
AZ king fifty dollars for that mule, [ sup
pose. Well, it's a big price, but if you
won't take less, III have to give it. Cor
poral, just write a note for fifty dollars,
payable in Florida swamp lines, at twen--

Sentinell pacing with weary feet,
Up and down your weary beat;
Out of sight of the sleeping camp,
Never stopping your Watchful tramp;
When the night is dark and the wind is cold,
And you grasp your gun with tighter hold ;
When clouds hang thick in the scowling sky,
And their shadows on your pathway lie;
What arc your thoughts, and what your fears?
Do your wiie eyes ever fill with tears
As you think of loved ones far away,
Who yearn for you sadly every day?
Does your soldier-heart beat with pain,
As you long to be at home again?
When your stealthy step breaks on your ear,
Do you ever start aback with fear?
Do You ever breathe an inward prayer.
When yon cry aloud Halt who goes thcre?'
When vou aim and fire at the prowling spy,
Do you ever hope he viii not die?
When the bullet strikes with heavy thud,
Do you ever quail at the thought of blood?
Do you ever feel as you draw breath,
That the next may be the gasp of death?
When your heart grows faint, and your foot
steps lag,
Do you cheer up, and blcssth dear old Flag?
O sentinel pacing with weary feet,
Up and down your lonely beat;
When the night is dark, and bitter cold,
And wintry blast sweeps over the void !;
There is always one whom you never knew,
Who is tearfully praying for you.
