where the Judge was stationed, placed
himself on the road where the Judges

without degradation or loss of any rights.
This savage tragedy and ab>urdly mild
punishment are the result Of that antagon-
ism between the military men and thecivil-
ians which still characterizes Russian life.
The original cause Of quarrel, or rather
the pretext was a miserable question of
chair for lady at ball. The two men
had long hated each other, and the civilian
seems to have been in the habit of saving
bitter things about war and officers, Ex-
plantations followed the ball scene, and
the affair seemed ended. the Judge dis

Cofonefs Imported Eember.


Hard as the life of soldier always is
in active campaigns, says the Madison
Democrat, it is also well known to all
those who took part in the great cam
paigns of the rebellion, that even the
weary soldier had his; and the incidents
and surrounding circumstances often
caused the righteousness of the soldiers
joke to sink deeper into the memory, and
be retained in recollection longer than
the memory of the saddest scenes of
carnage 0fall the specimens ofsoldier 5
wit Of which we ever heard read, or
witnessed, there Is none, certainly, SUI
perior, if there is one equal to the fol-
lowing, taken from the second volume
of Gen. Sherman's Memoirs, of which
the United States Pension Agent, at
Madison, IS the perpetrator. In des-
cribing the assault On Leggett's Hill,
Gen Sherman SAYS:
1t was in carrying this hill that Gen.
Gresham, a great tavorite, was badly
wounded; and there. also, Col Tom Rey-
nolds, now of Madison, Wis, was shot
through the lee. When the surgeons
were discussing the propriety of ampu-
tating it in his hearing, he begged them
to spare the leg, as it was very valuable,
being an imported leg" He is Of
Irish birth, and this well-timed piece of
wit saved his leg, for the surgeons thought
if he could perpetrate joke at such
time. they would trust to his vitality to
save his limb.
And the surgeons were right. Col
Reynolds is hale and hearty yet here in
Madison, and that peculiar temperament
which enabled him to perpetrate such
specimen of wit under such trying cir
cumstances could do more than all the
remedies known to science to heal the
wound Doubtless many a Respondent,
complaining soldier went down to his
final resting place in that war from the
effects of wounds which would have
scarcely caused the mirthful tempered
soldier to quit his post. So it was in
the field; the jolly, witty, good-humored
man invariably withstood the hardships
of the campaign best.
