and 1 rolld in kersplosb, for it vas two
feet in mud and watar.' The infernels
found me there jest at night, and got me
out at the pint ofthe baynet. They marched
me to the wolf pen and there stayed till
the fuss was over.
"Right here, Bill, want to make an
observation. There was a Teller with
me when was cotch'd, and 1 seed him
make a sorter of sign to the captain, and
they turned him loose in two minets, and
he jest went anywhere as material as king,
while I had a CROSBY dutchman standin
over me with baynet GRIMM from
mornin till night. There was some Free
Masonry about that, Bill, and if another
one of these fool wars comes along, I'll
jine EN- if they'll let me.
"But I am at home now for good
I'm gwine to stay here like sine die. I'm
agin all wars and fghtins. I'm opposed
to all rows and rumpusses and riots. /
don't keer nigh as much about dog fight
as used TO. Now if one could always see
the end of a thing in advance, and the
eend aoas all right I wouldent mind big
fuss, but then you know mans foresight

was, this war wouldn't have broke out
and 1 wouldent have los. my steer and my
watch. Inever seed that woman before
nor since, and I wouldent know her from
any other woman that walks the yearth

marry me then; but she sen. them all

no notion of men. I told her I'd oceans

her with growl; but she answered she

by the screech of an owl. I called her a
beggar aud everything bad sighted her

IN getting her mad, and che ragcd like

BILL ARP RETURNS TO THE ETERNAL CITY
AND MEETS HIS FRIEND, BIG JOHN.

Mr.. Editor-,Sar: I hav not up to this
time made any remarks in publik about
the trials and tribulations, the losses and
crosses, the bussards ard dead hosses seen
on our journey to the'eternal City. Ishal
not allood 70 it now, only to remark tha,
our comm back were not so hasty as oul
ieavin. It was in the dead of winter, through
snow aud through sleet, over creeks with
out bridges, and bridges without floors
through deserted and desolate land, where
no rooster was left TO crow, no pig to squeal
no dog to bark, where the ruins of happy
homes adorned the way, and ghosty chin
neys stood up like Sherman's sentinels a
guardin the ruins he had made. A little
one hos consern contained the highth ol
my worldly possessions, consistin Of my
numerous and lovely wife and children, and
sLuck basket full of some second class
vittels. Couutiu our offspring there was
about ten of. US in aud about and around
that wagiu, thus ik,stratin what the poet
has sed, "One glorious hour Of crowded
life is worth an age without name, though
the glory were hard to purseeve on sich
okkashuns. Mrs. Arp are of the opinyoun
that her posterity we're never as hungry
before in their life as on that distressin
journey, and she once remarked that there
want nary rod of the road that dident hear
some of EN- hollerin for vittels. My wife's
husband is troobled beA they amt broke
OF it yit, and it do seem that the poorer
git the more aevouriu dhey bekum, all
which will eend in sumthin or other if
sumthin don't happen.
We finally arrived within the presinkts
Of our lovely home. The doors creaked
welcome on their hinges, the hoppiu- bug
cherruped on the hearth, and the whistlin
wind was singin the same old tune around
the bedroom corner. We were about as
happy as we had been miserable, and when
I remarked that General Vandiver, who
okkupied our house, must be gentleman
for not buruiu it, Mrs. Arp>repled
II wonder what he done with my soing
masheen."
He dident cut down our shade trees"
sed I.

"It may be possibul," sed I, Z" that the
Genrul -"
"And my barrel of SOAP" sed she.
at may be possibul," sed j, 4" that the
Genrul moved of our things to take keer
Of EN- for US. I reckon we'll git em all
back after while" +:
'"After s0hile," said Mrs. Arp like an
ekko, ard ever since then when allood to
our Northern brethren she only replies,
"atter while." IL.
By and by the shattered wanderers be-
gun to drop in under the welcum shades OF
our sorowful City. 1t wer delightful
enjoyment to greet em home, and listen TO
the history of their suffrings and misfor-
tunes. Misery loves company, and after
the misery is past there's a power of COM
