a Thrilling Incident of the War.

Nine or ten years ago citizen of one of
the towns in the eastern part Of Massachusetts
was unjustly suspected Of crime which the
statute can not easily reach, but which deser.
vedly brings upon him guilty of it the indig
nation OF upright men. There were crcum-
stances which gave color to the suspicion, and
the unfortunate gentleman suffered the misery
OF loss of friends, business and reputation.
His sensitive nature could not face these fri
ais {; and he fell into state of body and mind
that alarmed his family. At length, having
invested his property where it could be easily
managed by his wife, he suddenly disappeared,
leaving her comfortable home and the care
OF two boys, OF ten or twelve years. The first
fear that he had sought violent death was
dispeIled by the orderly arrangement of his
affairs, and the discovery that daguerreo

to trace the fugitive. When, aiterward, facts
were developed which established his inno-
cence Of the crime charged it was found inl-
possible to communicate with him and as
the publications of the story in the columns
OF several widely circulated journals failed to
recall him, he was generally supposed to be
dead. -.
At the outbreak of the present civil war
his eldest son, now young man, was induced
by friend, a captain in a western regiment,
to enlist in his company. He carried himself
we'll through campaigns in Missouri and Ten
nessee, and after the capture of Fort Donelson,
was rewarded with first lieutenant's commits
sion. At the battle of Murfreesboro he was
wounded in the left arm, but so slightly that
he was still able to take charge of squad OF
wounded prisoners. While performing this
duty he became aware that one of them, a
middle aged man, with full, heavy beard,
was looking at him with fixed attention. The
day after the fight, as the officer was passing,
the soldier gave the military salute, aud said !:

sharpshooters' Holiday and Grand Review

onarpsn0oters Holiday and Grand Review
CAMP NEAR FALMOUTH, April 10, 1868.
The First Brigade of U. S. Sharpshooters ha,
ing had the promise of holiday, last Tuesda
was set apart by COL Borden for thai purpose
but the reviews, &c., occasioned by the visit G
the President to the Army of the Potomac, tool
up so much of our time and attention that tn
sports did not come off till yesterday, Thursday,
which was entirely devoted to recreation, fun ant
frolic. First was shooting match, at 100 yards
of-hand, by one man from each Company, VIII,
had been selected at previous trial; the bes
shot in each Regiment receiving silver medal
which were won by Samuel lnging, Co. l, Is
Regiment, and by Albert Culver, Co. E, I'd Reg
lment. These two then tried for the gold medal
which was won by Samuel lngling, 1st Regiment
Another trial was then made, at 200 yards, fir
ing from the top of tree, for prize of $1,000
and won by member of CO. F, I'd Regiment
Next on the programme was foot race for a
purse OF $1,000, distance 200 yards, which was
won by Edward Bartoney Of Co. F LIST Regiment,
who came in in % IL seconds. Following thi,
was foot race Of 400 yards, won by B. Gardner,
Co. H, LIST Regiment.
Next in order was a sack race, prize $1,000.
won by member of Co. A, I'd Regiment; then
sack race for $500, won by Edward Bartoney,
Co. F, LIST Regiment.
After this came the feat Of climbing the creased
pole after an order for $1,000, which was at the
top; but the road proved too slippery, and though
repeated trials were made, which created uproari-
Gus shouts of merrlment, no one succeeded in
getting the prize.
The next exhibition was cock fgH-but start
not at the barbarity of the thing-it was novel
and mirth.proyokng but boodless contest, each
bird being manufactured for the occasion by taking
| soldier and tying his hands together, and then
Inserting both knees between the elbows, and
putting a stick through. The belligerents when
hus prepared and set on their feet by their back
re-, would try their best to b,ltt each other over,
md the one that got the most falls was considered
'anquished. The first pair were backed by Col.
3erdan and Capt. Nash the Captains bi;d (per-
onated by Edward Bartoney, Co. F,) winning
he fight and the purse of $500.
Afther getting tired of this sport, the exercises
we're concluded, with jumping, wrestling, gymnas-
ic feas, &c., to the entire satisfaction of both Off
ers and men. Col. B. expressed much sratifca-
ion at the conduct of the men, as did also Gen.
Nbipple who was present.
Last Tuesday the President, with Gen. Hook
r and staff, rode through the Different camps and
he next day reviewed large portion of the Ar
ny OF the Potomac in body. The day was
me and the immense parade Of troops was a
rand and exciting spectacle. The General Com.
handing has issued an order compmenting the
J. S. SharpshooteFs for their fine appearance on
hat occasion. The weather is fine and there are
