A Soldiers Bright Idea.

One day soon after Pope's defeat rs
second Bull Run and Chantilly, a pri-
vate soldier belonging to an Ohio reg
iment sought an interview with his
captain, and announced that he had a
plan for a military campaign, which
must certainly result in crushing out
the rebellion. The officer very natu-
rally inquired for particulars, but the
soldier refused to reveal them, and
asked for chance to lay his plans
before Pope himself. After some de-
lay he was given a pass to headquar-
ters. He did not get to see Pope, but
after the chief of staff had coaxcd and
promised and threatened for quarter
of an hour the Buckeye stood up
and replied:
"Well, sir, my plan is for John Pope
and Bob Lee to swap commands, and
if we don't lick the South inside of
sixty days you may shoot me for a
patent hay fork swindlerp
When he returned to camp he was
naturally asked what success he met
with, and ho ruefully replied:
