Near the camp of the old Pennsyl-
Fania Bucktail Regiment, in Virgin
ia, early in the war, lived an old ariS-
toerat. exclusive and pompous Virgin

imported brick, his ehimneys We're
tall and massive. and the rooms were
tall and pleasant. The attraction Of
the old place, however, was the
grounds that surrounded the old man
sion. Large trees gave luxuriant
shade, and the underbrush in portions
of the grounds afforded shelter for
rabbits and other small game. There
were walks, and orchards. and ar
bors, and the whole bore such scene
Of general peaeefulness and repose,
that it was no wonder that the wild
Bucktails were charmed with the
prospect, and anxious TO penetrate
into spot which gave such promise
of enjoyment.
The Buektails were not the most
tractable soldiers They came from
the stepping-off plaee-the Wilder
ness of Pennsylvania-M'Kean. Pot
ter, Forest and Tioga counties-and
they obtained their name, which elung
10 them during the entire war. thro'
fancy of Colonel Kane, brother of
the Arctic explorer, who became their
commander. He recruited the regi-
ment in the early days of 1861, be-
ginning on the day of the arrival of
the news of the fall Of Sumpter, from
the backwoOdsmen, who were famous
marksmen. They We're all deer-hunt-

noted for their short, attenuated
forms. Neither was scarcely more
than FIVE feet high, and their combin-
cd weight was less than two hun

Itmaybe readily guessed that these
soldiers bad little respect for Virginia
aristoeracy, and the tent poles had
hardly got settled in the ground be-
fore a noted rider named " well,
Smith-shouldered his deer-killer and
started out on a little expedition. He
was sergeant. Of immense size,
named The Big Sergeant" He
made a straight march for the old
Virginian's manor Now, the old
gentleman had many pets about the
grounds, and among them tanned
crow which he valued very highly
He also had tame rabbits, doves, etc

and dropped himself and gun inside
Of the grounds The FIRST thing his
eye struck was the tame crow, who
uneoneernedly few near him, and al
lighted on limb and began 10 cav at
him. The Sergeant put his rifle 10
his shoulder and banged away. Mr..
Crow came futtering To- the ground.
The soldier reloaded his gun, leaned
it against the wall, and went to get
his game
Instantly there came running from
the house, in a high state OF excite
ment, the old Virginian, and when be
saw that his pet crow had been killed
his rage knew no bounds. He rushed
for the sergeant'5 gun, and swearing
that he wouldn't have given the crow
for the whole Yankee army, vowed
that he would blow the soldiers brains
out With this he brought the piece
to cock and glanced along the bar

life, and the Virginian swore be would
take it.
The Virginian finally thought Of q
compromise, and with a look half be-
tween amusement and rage told the
sergeant that be must eat the
crow raw. In vain the other pro-
tested; the Nirginian insisted on the
the price Of his adversary's life. So
the sergeant pulled off feathers and
began TO gag and eat
How do you Ike crow" hissed
the Virsinian through his teeth.
The only answer the other gave
was TO beg to be let of. He was sor-

that it was a tame one, and be
wouldn't do such a thing again. Fl
nallv the old man took the gun from
its aim, and told the Sergeant he

of joy, the crow upon the ground,
he said:

CHAPTER III.

The next day the old Yirginian,
smarting under the indignities he had
suffered, in not only having his pet
crow killed, but being compelled to
eat portion Of il, went TO the head
quarters Of the Buektails and made
complaint to the colonel about the big
sergeant. The colonel at once sent an

but have little doubt that the pet
crow of the old Virginian was quite
as palatable TO him as Greeley is to
some of those who are compelled TO
