Good piuck-A Highly Romantic Story.

A correspondent, writing all the way
from Texas, tells of the devotion of q
young Southern wife who accompanied
her husband on foot from South Carolina
to the Lone Star State, and thought moth
ing Of it. There are not many danes
or dsmsels who would undertake such
journey even though they we're sure of
finding the goal of hymenisl happiness
at the end of it:
Some months after the close of the
war, a gentleman overlook well dressed
Confederate soldier with knapsack on
his back, accompanied by neat, pretty
looking girl, apparently about eighteen
years of age, with bundle in her hand.
The soldier stopped to ask some direc-
tions about the road. The gentleman
found he was Confederate soldier, re-
turning home with his wife, and invited
them home with him to dinner, as he
lived near. The soldier, fine
looking Texan, told his story. His
home was on the Nueces. He
belonged to Johnston's army, and had
gone through all the varied fortunes of a
soldier; been once wounded and twice a
prisoner at Camp Chase. In one of his
various wanderings he had met and fallen
in love with the daughter of a, widow in
the northern part of South Carolina,
whose husband had fallen at the battle
of Manassas The widow, from compe-
tence, found herself reduced almost to
want. When the war closed, our soldier
went to the house of his intended moth
rin.law, and for month worked with
all his might, mending fences and put
ting the farm in the best order he could
Then, thinking it time to see his old
mother in Southern Texas, of whom be
had not heard one word for over two
years, he prepared to return home; bat
it was hard to leave his sweetheart, not
knowing when he could make money
enough to come for her. But she set
tied the matter by saying she was with
him. So one morning they were mar
ried aud started for Texas on foot, with
their knapsacks on their backs, and
without single cent of money. "But,
said the bride, I'VE found people very
kind; we made friends all along the
road; we were never turned off at night;
we always got plenty to eat, and people
would often make us little presents Of
money. We would frequently ovsrtake

he thought be saw there the reason eve

But we're you not afraid 10 come so
