A Story OF the War.

During the cessation of the firing at
Spottsylvania, which lasted about five
minutes, the writer took a view of the
battlefield before us. Immediately in our
front were two lines of battle. The first
connected with our works to the right,
which were still held by the, enemy and
gradually receded as he extended to his
right, thus taking advantage of the ra-
vine. The second line lay about two
hundred yards in the rear of the first,
while the artillery was posted about four
or five hundred yards in his rear. The
field presented one vast Golgotha in inn
mensity of the number of the dead. On
extending to the woods beyond, the
ground was almost covered with the
dead and wounded, while between the
lines they were literally piled. This was
owing to the number of guns used by
the Confederates in the desperate as
sault made by the Federals. The writer
counted fifteen stand of cOlors lying be-
tween the, lines, some of them having
fallen against our breastworks-the
brave hands which had born them SO
gallantly forward now cold in death.
Suddenly large, tine-looking officer,
who l think was Captain, stepped
forward and came upon the works, re-
marking: "Well, boys, suppose you
have all surrendered!' Receiving a
negative reply, he asked for the COM
handing officer. Major Council, of the
Sixteenth, stepped up and said:
81 am, SIR When the officer again
remarked: "Well, sir, suppose you
have all surrendered?''
Major Council replied: emo, sir g;
we have not surrendered, but consider
yourself a prisoner
Then the officer boldly and firmly an
swered, "I'll die first!" and turned on
his heel slowly and deliberately attempt
ed to return to his own lines as cody as
though there was no enemy within ten
miles of him. He was repeatedly called
on to halt or he would be shot, but he
paid not the slightest attention, when
some one shot him. He fell about thirty
PAGES in front of our works. The cour-
age and daring of this brave but rash
man I think has never been equaled
during the war. Will some of the Fed
eral survivors at that point give his
name? For one who could be SO insen-
sible to fear should have his name in
scribed in the temple of fame. Proba-
bly, Mr.. Galloway recollects the Incl
dent, as he says his (Upton's) brigade
occupied the position. Many of the
Mississippians, and none more than the
writer, regretted the fate of that brave
spirit: But after learning our weakness
on the right it would have been self
destruction to have permitted him to re-
turn to his own lines. When the fatal
shot was fired it was the signal for the
musketry to break forth in all its fury,
which never ceased till next morning.

The President and the Cabinet.

WAsHINGToS, sept. -
The Cabinet to-day, through Secretary
Blaine, rendered their designations to Presi-
dent Arthur ut the Cabinet meeting nc tho
Capitol after the President was sworn in. Tho
act was accompanied by an expression of tho
the President was given TO understand
the members of the Cabinet desired
only Co relieve him of all embarrassmcnt
without regard TO past political events. Tho
President, without formaiity, said that he did
not desire to accept the rendered resignations
would continue in the discharge OF
their duties. The condition of pub
lie business and sensitivcncss of tho
public mind, in view of the present great
ing this indulgence at their hands. secretary
Blaine assured the President that he could
depend upon them to use their best efforts to
tranguilize the country and to aid him In tho
performance of his duties in the present try
ing circumstances.
In declining to accept the designations Of tho
Cabinet. President Arthur did not commit
himself to anything definite. He remarked
that under the present distressing circum-
stances he could not be expected 20 give his
demand consideration, and, therefore, had
given no thought to selecting his advis-
ers. Ills request was that the present Cabinet
Continue in the discharge Of their duties,
leaving the question of resignation until such
time as he can determine what Is best for him
to do.
IL may safely be said that before the closo
of next week a proclamation will be issued bv
the President calling the senate In executive
session. The time fixed will be not later than
the 18th of October. IL Is understood that tho
President was averse TO the calling Of the scs.
sion, but has yielded to weight of Senatorial
opinion, which has been freely expressed
during yesterday and to-day.

Confidence Misplaced.

Mary Ward, colored, who lives at No.
AL Main Street, is the latest victim of
misplaced confidence. To her came
Margaret Jones, a hoodoO priesteSs, and
said
EDO you pine for the solace that love
alone can bring?"
81 pine,'' replied Mary.
"Then," said Margaret, 81 can put
you on to a racket that will make you
solid with the sterner sex. Get a few
potions of whisky, a piece of cloth that
has never been used, and some black
pepper. Mix de pepper and whisky and
wet de cloth with it. Put a half dollar
in de cloth, and put it under yer piller,
and you kin ketch any man you want.
Only don't open de bag"
Mary went over to a white lady who
lived across the way, and borrowed the
fifty cents and the piece of cloth. She
brought it over and Mrs. Jones took
hold. Mary thought she saw her put
the coin in the cloth. This, as was af-
terward demonstrated, was an optical
delusion.
Margaret whirled the improvised bag
around from the end of a string, telling
Mary to watch the bag and not her hand,
or else it would break the charm, re-
peating meantime the distich:
St. Peter, st. James and st. Paul,
call on one and call on ALL
Do make dis charm secure and sho'
'Gainst all de men and debils hyar below.
Mary, as ordered, watched the bag.
She did not see the motive power given
the string by Margaret's sinewy fingers,
and supposed the Invocation did the
work.
She pnt the magic bag under her pill
low and dreamed of dusky Adonis,
whom she hand long wished to catch.
A few days passed, and his manly
form darkened not her door. Then
womanly curiosity took possession OF
her mind. Like the Lady of Shallott,
she broke the spell put upon her. She
opened the bag and found therein, not
the half dollar it should have contained,
but the pewter top of a pickle jar about
the same size and consistence.
Mary was naturally in bad way. Her
confidence had been abused, and the
tenderest feelings of her nature outraged.
She gave information against the hoodoo
priestess, and had her arrested for swim
ding. Memphis Acala11che.
