Goodness Under Fire.
Chambers Journal.

Toward the close of the fight Of In
hermann, Lord Raglan, returning from
taking leave of General S,rangways
met Sergeant carrying water for the
wounded. The Sergeant drew himself
up to salute, when a round shot came
bounding over the hill and knocked his
forage cap out of his hand The man
picked 1t up, busted it on his knee
placed it carefully on his head, and
made the salute, not muscle of his
countenance moving the while. "a nea'
thing that, nv man." said Lord Raglan
:Yes, nv Lord" returned the Sergeant
with another salute, "but miss is as
good as a mile" The commander was
probably not surprised by such an ex
hibition or s1ns troid, being himsel
good that way. He was badly hurt q
Waterloo, and, says the Prince o
Orange, who was In the hospital, 81 wa
not conscious of the presence Of Lore

the ground that the United States was
