The romance of the war of the rebel
lion will never cease. Daily, relations
most romantic. most poetic, are discovered
in the amalgamatIon of the factions and
the fading of sectional feeling. Some
days since | noted in an Eastern paper an
illustration most striking. Gen. Ward of
New Jersey wears an empty sleeve, as
well as numerous wounds to remind him
of the times which tried mems souls.
Recently he was called upon by Robert
n. Northern Of Richmond, once sn off
Ger in the Southern army. While these
two gentlemen in friendly rcminiscence
were relating war stories, the general was
asked where he received the wound which
cost him his arm. 1t was at the second
battle of Bull Run, at the poiut where
the Manassas railroad made the horseshoe
bend. As a field officer, Ward had risen
in front of his forces to reconnoitre, when
three officers of the enemy rose in front
OF their line and fired at him, giving him
the wound that cost him his arm. North
ern proved to be one of the three confed-
crate officers, and yet to-day the two are
the warmest friends. | am reminded of
a bit Of conversation | overheard on the
