JOE PARSONS A

L E.. IT H. ||E| r..
Your readers may feel sufficient inter-
est in the Maryland volunteer, Joe Par
sons of Baltimore whose brief story | gave
you in a recert letter, to be glad to hear
of him agai1. 1 saw poor Joe. in the hos
pital yesterday. His shocking injury
(by which you remember both his eyes
were .knoc't out at one pop as he express
es it,) continues very wearisome, yet his
animal spirits are, as usual, astonishingly
buoyant. He seems always happy, and
in my wide experience among the wounded
men, | have never yet met so extraordina-
ry an instance of continuous good nature
under adversely. Joe is entirely at liber'
ty around the hospital-going and COM
ing from ward to ward, all day, and about
the grounds, outside, cane in hand, feeling
his way to and fro unmolestod-and al
ways uttering a pleasant word of encour-
agement to his sick and wounded compan-
ions, a song to himself, or a ready jest to
visitors. He knows my voice, and calls
me little un,' (the joker!) I'm promoted
he said, yesterday. Happy to hear it,
joe 1 replied. What now? I'm officer
O. the day, little un.' Indeed ? Yes, yer
see they arn't afeerd o my runnin' off,
sence the rebels knoc't my peppers out
an yer mind, my eyelight arn't as good
as it vast You bear your misfortunes
bravely, joe why not he said, quick
ly. 1T can't be helped, yer know. I'm
done fer, l am. Wen the old rebblc colo
mel got me inter his tent, out t Antictam,
sed he, Boy, you're used up, you ar
Amt yer sorry yer listed, an went inter
this fight? SEE I, 'No-sir-ee! I'm a Union
man-so's my father an mother afo' me.
That's wots the matter, kurnel.' Then he
SEE, well, boy-ef yer he'd yer eyes agin
wot nd yerdo?' l says EFF my eyes warn't
knoc't out en- I could stan up, I'd be a
dom wotever my regiment was a dom;
an reck'n we'd be u goin' in to help clean
the rebles out any how You would?' SEE
he; Jess so,' SEE 1. You're bully Yam
kee, then SEE he AN like yer pluck; III
send yer home So he detailed two but
ternuts, to onc't, an they led me off, over
to our side And your wound continues
painful yet, Joe p Wal-yes'-he said,
slowly. And then he added, 'pr'aps, lit
tie IN, you never had an eye knoc't clean
outen yer face, by a minnie bullet?' No !
thank heaven I exclaimed. Then yer
can bet yer bottom dollar it hurts some to
hev both on EN- jerked out to onc't. But
"Wha's the use o. sighin-"
he continued, in his merry, tuneful way.
And a moment afterwards the bell sum-
moned the convalescents to dinner.
If there's aught that I love-
IT'S a fresh mutton chop
With a mushroom or two BY its side
sung out blind Joe, cheerily; and he left
us-feeling bis way briskly along the cor
ridor with his cane back to his ward. His
appetite isgood, but his wound heals slow
ly. Yet he is the happiest man | meet
here, and is a universal pet among the sick
aud crippled associates.

The official text Of the reply Of Archdnk'
Macmillan 10 the Mexican dcpuin'i"n, which
We published a few days ago. gives no new light
on The question whether the Archdukc is deter
mined to accept the throne of not. NJ hr-t'
the prevailing opinion among the European
prc.s was that be- had made up biz mind not 70

two conditions upon which the acceptance wa
made coniingcnt-ihe free vote of the entire
Mexican people, and the guaranty Of bis throne
by foreign Powers. Both it was thought
would, at all events, ncccsrilatc a long delay oi

Napoleon il stated to have addressed to The
Archduke All autograph letter fully approving
of the character of his reply 10 the MEXICAN
depuiation. 1t il naturally inferred from this
response that a. far a. France il concerned
Lons Napoleon is ready 10 give 10 Macmillan
those guarantees which he demands. The qucs-
ton of the guaranty of the Mexican monarchy
being obviously the most important one, IT
will be easy 10 declare that the Information
received as to the sentiments of tho Mexican
people is such as to leave no doubt that they
are unanimous in favor Of Macmillan. That
is the ground even now taken by all the papers
which sustain the candldalurc Of Maximan.
