President Arthur's Romance.

When a young lawyer, unknown TO
fame, Chester Arthur happened TO at
tsnd the service at the Old Church of
st. Johns, in this city. There he heard
for the first time the rich soprano voice
of Ella Herndou. as the notes OF the
"Venlte" rapg through the shabby old
church. She was the daughter of
naval officer, who won distinction by
bis services in the Mexican war and
commanded an exploring expedition up
tho Amazon. But his browning deed of
valor was upon the ilI-starred steamer
Central America, that founaered near
Havana with several hundred passen-
gers and more than a million IN gold.
BY his heroic efforts about half Of the
passengers were saved, and, faithful 10
his trust, the gallant captain went
down with his ship, which he refused to
desert. The echo of the sweet voice
still fingered with Mr.. Arthur, and
soon after her great sorrow he sought
the acquaintance of the fatherless glrl,
and she became his wife. Now, every
Sunday, GU foot and unattended, Presi-
dent Arthur finds his way to the dingy
little church, and sits in the pew
where the beautiful Lady Madison wor-
shipped so long ago. Perhaps amid
the "Venile" to-day he hears 1.-THE
sound of voice that is still"-the
voice OF one whose portrait hangs in
his chamber. Amid the pressure OF
state duties. it is said, The President
never forgets the daily tribute of flow
ers to the memory Of this lady, who,
had she lived, would have graced the
White House.

On the 9th we were ordered from the
front HE and went to the rear or second line of
open field, skirted by woods the north aud west.
As we lay here In the shade the afternoon OF tho
9TH the enemy came round by the right of front
line In strong force with several batteries, and all
of sudden opened on us at furious rate The shots
came from both the front and right. The men fell
into line without orders, ready to move to the front
at the word Here ono of the most laughable incl
dents of the war occurred, which many of the vets
will remember. As Lieut.. Col. BlNby and myself
the regiment, talking about tina fusllade he turned
suddenly to the right and moved back his right foot,
tour backs being to the enemy on our rghtl Just at
that moment underground shot struck the ground
where his foot was moment before, throwing the
dirt all over u.s. passed on and struck the ground
again few rods further on and rlcochetted again.
AT the same time of the cOlored cooks OF brl
gade was running In the same direction tue shot
going, and In bee line with it, with two camp ket
ties In his hands. He was running for dear life,
the shot WAS coming from all directions. After the
ball had struck the ground the third time aud
bounded into the air II struck the darkey plumb In
the back of the head, Knocking him over, and send
Ing the camp kettles flying several feet ahead of him.
The boys shouted, There's dead niger J" for
prise of all lookersun he jumped M a quickly ms he
went down. and ran llko deer across the field to-
ward house where Gen. Potter had his headguar-
tiers. Such shout AS went up from the boys was
never heard before on that line. II. Pool remarked;
Who says - darkey's head cannot stop a solid
shot ?' | would not have dared to tell this story for
fear some OF my readers would say was - nbbing ~
II this Incident had not been seen by several hundred
men. II was INC mOsl hcCluenl ever VIII
messed In the Army. The only reason why tho shot
did not XIII the dlrkey outright was the fact that lie
was running so fast In the same direction, and the
shot had lost the greater part OF It's force by striking
the ground three or four times, when 1t hit him In
the head he going almost as fast rs the shot
But have doubt he had the headache the rest OF
the day, and no doubt II would have killed white
man on the spot. When | WAS IN Libby Prison
heard soldier Of New Hampshire regiment tell Of
the same incident but the boys shook their heads and
said they could not take II IN such big dose that,
but when several others came forward and said they
