SUNDAY MEDITATION.

Practical Duties Taught by Study OF the Inter-
national Sunday school lesson Appointed for
Jan. 10. st. Matt, Id: 26 S6.
Zone reading these notes should first carefully
study the paragraph from the Holy Scriptures as
indicated above.l
SUBJECT: CHRIST WALKING ON THE SEA OF
GALILEE.
We now study the account of our Saviors
goth miracle. One should read also st. Mark 8
Gospel, 6:45-52, and that of st. John, Is
81. Curiously, st. Luke omits any mention of
this miracle.
On the day before this miracle Christ fed the
5000 men, beside women and children. That
took place south of Bethsaida in Perea, on the
east side of the Sea of Galilee. 1t created great
enthusiasm, leading the people to demand of
the Performer of the miracle to become at once
the King of the Jews They lacked compre-
henson of the situation, not foreseeing that
such action was utterly premature, nor resliz-
ing that Christ's mission was spiritual, and not

of my sight. It was evident, from their not
paying any attention to my presence, that they
did not in their talk about PiGkens have any
reference TO me or nay connection with affairs
in so remote place as Florida; yet felt the
least bit uneasy, and while / stood about the
War Office in Richmond that day the terrible
thought came to me: Have in any manner
given myself away, and am / being taken to
the Department daily by the Captain for the
purpose of entrapping or identifying me2
Such thoughts get possession of the brain,
and grow wonderfully into the widest fears
and fancies. I waited anxiously about the
square in front of the Office for the appearance
of our Captain, who was not in the building at
that time.
That evening he was unusually late, and
when saw him limping along the pavement,
his cane pounding the pavement with moro
than ordinary vigor, / knew I should have to
lift the old man bodily onto his horse He was
always more communicative at such times and
ready to tell me all that he had learned during
the day. To my own surprise I blurted out
without thinking of my words, so engrossed
was my mind on this subject as if determined
to hear the worst at once:
"How ABOUT FORT PICKENs2D
"Oh," he growled out in thick tones, the
Yankees have opened fire on our fellows from
that damned Fort Pickens'
" Is that all 2" said l. with great sigh of
reilef, which he must have noticed had he been
sober enough.
"Thats enough, amt it? The President
and the Secretary are both disgusted with Gen.
Bragg for not capturing the damned place last
Spring"
"Too badl" said; but 1 thought: What
prevented the capture of Fort Pickens in last
April?
As we rode along in silence for the remainder
of the way to camp had the opportunity to
recall the Fort Piekens service, and 1 wondered
in my own mind just how that duel would be
carried on there
should have liked SO much to have wit
messed the booming of the guns from Pickens,
and the exploding of the great shells over the
exact spots in which I had located the masked
rebel batteries down there
My fears having been relieved by this ex-
planation of the conversation had overheard,
| felt very much as if I'd like to go off by my
self and yell just once for the old flag; but
dare not. l must continue in the silence that
was becoming almost second nature to me.
Ito be continued.l

pedestrians. These fellows wore a fancy uni
form, and without a word of exaggeraten /
may say that every private in the battalion was
provided with body servant; in most cases
likely boy, with whom the soldier had played
as a child, was sent along to take care of the
Young master.
Our Colonel didn't like the attention that
was being given to the South Carolina boys !;
perhaps he felt little bit envious or jealous
he said:
"These fellows have brought along their mig
gers to carry umbrellas over them while they
fight"
While Lanyard said, It's most likely the
niggers are here to fix up their cocktails"
i have seen
REFINED, ELDERLY LADIES IN OUR CAMP,
with sleeves rolled up and huge aprons cover
ing their fine dresses helping the troops to
bake their biscuit and bread. The younger
and better-looking ladies were often TO be seen
at camp with baskets in hand, laying out boun-
tiful spreads in the barrack dining
The appearance Of ladies in camp always put
the Colonel on his mettle; he would go about
our quarters briskly, his actions totally altered
from his usual slow and quiet manner
Our sailor chum whom we called Lanyard,
had not enjoyed the society Of ladies so much
as the Colonel and was rather inclined to re-
sent the intrusion of the ladies. Through the
Colonei's gsllantry and cheek, our little mess
was usually pretty well remembered by the
ladies.
II was through visits of this character that
VIC became acquainted with a nice young lady
whom we viii call "Capitola,n because that
wasn't her name. She was typical Southern girl
cannot describe her, except TO say that she was
/ a beautiful brunet who had attended boarding
school somewh here near Baltimore, and probably
/ through this fact she became interested in the
1 Maryland refugees. AS have said, the Colonel
was a gallant fellow and also q good manager
/ who was not slow 70 take advantage of the op
! portunity this pretty girls visits to our camp
/ afforded. She of course made her visits il
company with beyy Of other pretty girls, somt
/ of whom were equally as handsome as herself
but she is the girl Of our story
