Gen. Hampton's Display Of
Nerve.

A middle-agcd man onco ap
preached Gen. Wade Hampton in
the Senate and asked his infiuen. e in
passing claim before the COMMITTEE
on Military Affairs. He said:
General, am glad to see you a.
gain You don't recognize me, but
you personally made a prisoner of me
during The war
Comparing notes, Hampton found
that it was u fact, and recalled the
circumstances. He was reconnoi.cr.
ing one night and missed his way.
Around bin burned more camp. fires
than he had left behind him, AID ea-
terin2 house lie discovered that he
had strayed into the cncmy's lines.
A few soldiers were seated at a Ia
Bile. aud addressing them abruptly as
il he were a superior officer Of their
own, he asked who they we're and
what they were doing there. One
man spoke up and replied:
We belong to the Eighth New
York regiment, and Gen. Warren
sent us 10 get mi k
Hampton felt that all his nerve and
address would be required 20 extri-
cate him from his dangerous posi-
ton. lie resched for his pistol and
held it along his thigh, and on leav-
ing the house commanded the man
who had spoken to him TO follow.
He did so, Hampton temounted his
horse and called tho man TO him.
Bending over 10 the soldiers ear be
whispered:
Il have pistol aimed at your
heart. and will shoot if any alarm is
made
Il surrender.
Hampton made him move on Jus,
ahead OF his horse, and 30 brought
him into the Confederate camp. II
was this man who, alter more than
twenty'three years, met his captor
and asked a favor OF him as a Sena.
tor which he was more than willing
TO grant. --Ne,o York Tribune.

Walter, with bleeding and manglsd

Weary days passed, and the wounds

was getting old aud feeble. This de,
cided them TO do without fail what
they had thought before they would
try to do-get Walter a pair OF those
wonderfully ingenious bot expensive
rubber hands that are made now to
serve when those Of flesh and blood
have been lost.
In the meantime Walter had left
the hospital, and while waiting for his
new hands he had some queer expe-
riences. He had fashion or putting
his wrists in his pockets to hide the
unsighily stumps from those he met
on the streets. Gving along in this
way one day, a rude boy called out:
What's the matter, smariy Are
your hands cold?'
Walter quietly took his wrists from
his pockets and held them up saving !.
