Lifelong hopes at one fell plow,

"Take care; young man, said the General
sternly " understand you tried to escape"
This was a poser, but as got under way, /

mad to see such beastly towards that had made

get to Canada?"
The General looked at me and then at his staff,
and they all smiled while looked as sober as a
deacon. had heard that the General was a
pious old fellow, and thought that this would
tickle him.
care you willing to take the oath of allegiance

cause?'
"To be sure. told you before that had been
trying to get into your lines. But don't want
to fight for you unless am protected in my
rights. want my property respected?"
"Where do you liver"
"At Phillippi; and I've got nice property up
there and want it taken care Of"
"Well, we are going up that way shortly, and
whether you go with us or not, we will protect
your property. In the meantime, will think
of your offer, but for the present, evidence is
against you you will be placed under guard, for
you Yankees are too slippery to be trusted with
much liberty. Events show that you don't know
how to use it,
After this was kept under guard, and was
treated perhaps as we'll as they were, and moth
ing to brag of at that. The nextday there was
great battle, and there was much commotion in
the rebel camp. For fear that should be recap

rear. We could distinctly hear the rumbling of
the cannon, and we knew the battle had COM

the idea that they were exempt This put flea
in my ear. knew they were towards, and
determined to manage them accordingly. My
canteen was nottaken from me, and as good luck
would have it was half-fu1 of tolerable rot-gut
whiskey. also had alarge powder of morphine
which the Surgeon had given me few days be-
fore to take occasionally This slipped into the
canteen. After this was accomplished appear

bait took; the boys got smell of the wh1skey,
and one of them said:
, "Look here Yank, that whiskey smells mighty
good Let us help you drink it, or you'll be so
drunk that soon we shall have to carry you."
"An right boys. help yourselves" said A.

but the rebels were not disposed easily to lose
their prey, and they followed, all of us going at
a break neck pace, and they firing at us as they
could get near enough. Presently discovered
a pathway in the wood that led off from the main
road. Into this path L turned my horse, as
thought the trees would afford better chance to
escape them and their bullets. My horse was

I attempted to leap it, my horse stumbled and

the crowd.
"see here. old covey," said T. "Put up your
pop gun, and take prisoner, if you like; but
don't murder fellow in that manner"
Of course I was prisoner, and thought it the
better part of valor to fall in and trust to chance
and strategy to get me out. So was toted in
line up to the rebel camp, and brought before the
notorious Stonewan. The General eyed me close

When she rises from her grave.
It is we'll she went to Heaven,
Ere her life was stained with sin,
And tits well that back was given
The young heart the crown TO win.
Her short life was like the flower
Which expands in morning fair,
But before the twilight hour,
Withered leaves are scattered there'
Roughly blew the winds of Heaven,
Round the blossom pale and light;
And too frail to last till even,
It twas sadly touched with blight
Thus was freed the gentle spirit,
Freed by deaths unerring mana;
And it went, life to inherit,
Upward to the better land!
