A sutlsr,r Adrenture.

On. o. Correspondence Cincinnati Commeroisl.)
Owing to the meager supply Of trans

get to their regiments on the Texas coast,
and have resorted to various expedients 10
accomplish this. Some have Hgreased"
their way through-some have chartered,
and some have bought schooners, and gone
out in that way. Among these latter was
Sam. Huston, sutler Of the 18th Indiana.
Sam is q very Hgay and festive" indiVid.

becalmed he commenced taking obseFva-

discovery that everybody in view were

approached by s boat containing two
pilots and gunbost Captain.
"Where are you from ?" they hailed

'But l don't want to 60 in" said Sam,
drawing revolver and requesting a sur
render Of the trio OF graybacks. This was
complied with, but, finding their mistake
as to his being blockade runner, they
undertook to persuade him 10 become one,
telling him he could sell all that he had
for gold, and make fortune, and giving
him assurance Of fair play and protection,
etc. But Sam couldn't see it, !" and start
ed out to ses.
But presently 8 new difficulty arose.
The breeze died away and Sam was be-
calmed again, in full view Of the harbor
and rebel gunboat that was evidently
getting up stesm. The prisoners, how
ever, were equally frightened, and read
lily agreed to compromise and 'iplay quits. /"
So Sam turned them adrlft, sending with
them box Of wine for the rebel General; /;
requesting them to give him his compli-
meats, and tell him he was 'is h-ll Of a
fellow, to run his officers right into Hoo

This was at Vslssoo, and Sam got safely
70 CaVallo in time for Christmas.
