ON HIS PERlLOus ERRAND,

Armed simply with brace and bits.
Straddling the breech OF the monstrous
piece. and crouching as low as posssi-
bic, he piled the drill vigorously. No
sooner had he begun than the enemy
perceived him. and flash after flash
succeeded from the ritle-pits. Stray
could see, as he worked, the rifle-pits
of the rebels, not a hundred yards dis
tant. ahlaze with light of fifty rifles,
and feel the wind Of their bullets as
they whizzed past him. Occasionally
one struck the cannon, as he noticed
by the peculiar chirp of the impact.
Favored partly by the obScurity. and
more by good luck, he remained M
scathed. save by one skin-scraplng
shot. In fifteen minutes-it seemed
to him an hour--the vent was clear.
AS the gun was loaded, a lanyard and
primer were passed mp to him, and
these fixed, he slipped quickly off;
The rebels. seeing him drop. imagined
they had shot him and sent mp

offered q Second Lientenancy. but be-
ing a modest man, and not fitted by
education for the position, he declined
