A RACE FOR LIFH-A soldier from
Rhode Island. while on picket guard was
rushed upon by party of rebel cavalry
He instantly fired bis piece at the fore
most, and ran. The way before him was
an opsn field. about fifty rods across. the
other side being hemed in by an old rotten
log fence. and still beyond q sort of chap
psral briar bushes and underbrush. To
this retreat the soldier started on quad !.
ripple quick. with half dozen horsemen
after him. Fortunately for the soldier.
the rains had made the field unite muddy.
and the horses slumped through the turf
so badly that they could not lessen the
distance between them and the fugitive.
All this time the rebels were keeping up
roar OF pistolry, one of the balls pas
sing through the soldiers hist another
went through his cartridge box and
lodged in his coat. Still on ran the hero.
and still On splashe1 the horsemsn. The
picket at last reached the fence, and with
one bound landed on top. intending to
give long spring ahead: but the fence
was frail, and cruHbled beneath his weight
Ii so CHANGED that hog had rooted out a
gutter at this place andswas lying ,snooz-
ing therein. at the crack Of the fence, his
swineship evacuated bis hole and scamp
cred barking into the underbush. As
luck would have it, the soldier fell in that
hole, muddy, as it was. and the fence rat
tied down on him. This was no more than
fairly done. when up came the horsemen
and hearing the rustling of leaves. not
doubling it was their prey, dashed through
the gap in the fence and seeing a path in
the brush they put through it after the hog
and were soon out of sight. When the
sound Of their footsteps died away, the
picket returned to camp and reported.
The next day one Of these rebel horsemen
was taken prisoner. When our hero saw
him be recognized him at once and sung
out: - ss - Eaf ss.l ss.E 80
'.Tssy old fellow did you catch that hog
yesterday" - = ss -
I'VE did that. " retorted the prisoner,
