Mark, 1850 while in Math 2546. He
says of them, These shall go away into

from the author Of this gospel of peace,

IN the breaking down of Gods govern
ment and authority in forcing his favor
upon those who refuse to accept it
Let us now take up the other part &c

y little doubt is admitted as to the pos
sibility, even for christians, while among
wicked men, always to be at peace,
when Paul says to the Romans, O21S)
=" And il ii be possible, as much as ie.h

conditions of this gospel peace are men
toned by the same writer, Rom 2l0.

How do you like your cold dinner, my
dear ?
i don't lose my temper over it, at least
But | want to know what YOU mean by
asking me q dozen times over whether /
like her
Oh nothing, only | know her.
You know her ?
BY reputation
Now, James, what do you mean? II
you know any thing about that lady | wish
you would tell me-
Did you ask her name :?
Yes her name is Mrs. Wellington
No it isn't
1T isn't?
Not any
Then what is her name !?
y ou have heard of Bell Burns {?
'What-the woman who was arrested
for poisoning her husband9
And got off through legal technical
ity. Yes
Wen, what of her?
Why, you've taken her to board, that $
all. When is she coming?
James, are you making sport of me :?
Not in the least, my dear. That wo-
man who just left the house is Madame
Belle Burns. When does she come !?
What a question Y on know Of course
she cant come at all if it's her
But you like her so we'll
James
And you are never deceived in your
estimate of character
James, you might be more generous
than to crack disgusting jokes on such q
subject.
Well, then ! won't, my dear. But I'll
tell you what it is | think we had better
give up the idea of taking boarder; we
seem to have had poor success. l have
had three very unsatisfactory specimens
of the genus to deal with, and you have
had one as bad as my three and | don't
find that we get anything but cold dinners
for our pains, and think we'll give up the
enterprise altogether
My wife has never talked about taking
a boarder since then, and l don't suppose
she ever will again as long as she lives.

CHAPTER VI.
In the battle of Gainesville the I'd Wiz.

wounded and missing, from 449 engaged.
Among the killed were our Colonel, Ed
gar O'Connor, and Capt julius Randolph.
SECOND BATTLE CT BULL RUN-lS62.
Aug 29.-Forenoon lay near the rail
road at Manassas Junction. In the after
noon we march up the Sudley road to its
crossing OF the Warrenton pike, and tako
a position in the rear Of and within sup
porting distance of Gen. Sigers troops,
who have been engaged all day.
The dark lines of the Union infantry
manmuvering npon the hills, with their
national battle flags waving proudly above
them, rendered more brilliant by the red
rays of the setting sun on thc prominent
positions along the lines, batteries posted
and spouting up their white clouds of bat
tie, shook with boom that reverberates
from Hill to hill and grove to grove, and
hurting the screaming shells through
the air crashing among the trees,
plunging into the earth, or strik-
ing death and confusion into the
ranks-is a scene that presents itself to
as as we advance upon this field of battle,
and the sun goes down behind the Blue
Ridge. The contest has been hard, but
victory apparently rests with our arms.
Aug. 30-ln the forenoon there is but
little firing, still the enemy continue in
force in our front Owing to the depletion
in the regiments in the two days preceding
battles, a reorganization of some battal-
lions becomes necessary, and the I'd and
7th Wis regiments are temporarily con-
consolidated, and commanded by Lit Col
FairchiId
About noon the battle re-opened by an
assault upon the enemy left Oar brig
adge moves up the Warrenton Pike on
the north side, in the fifth line Of battle.
! The enemy are posted in a thick wood,
but are driven until they succeed in max
ing stand in an old railroad cut While
engaged in assaulting them in this posi-
ton. the success Of a counter attack upon

renton and Sudley roads The enemy
follow closely our retrograde movement,
but are repulscd with great slaughter in
their repeated attacks upon front and
flank of this position; their continued
success upon our left, however, threaten
our communication with Centerville and
make it important to withdraw to hill
nearer Bull Run, overlooking and COM
mandinx the approaches to Stone Bridge.
Il Is near sunset when we accomplish
this movement, and the enemy do not fol-
low as closely as before, when we with
draw. The brigade here throw out line
of skirmishcrs, and under instructions Of
Gen. Keamey await in line of battle till
the whole army have passed in retreat on
the Centeryille road, then cross Bull Run,
the ID Wis. in the rear, marching by IN
column by company-leaving scouts be-
hind to signal the approach of the enemy.
