IN battle. Of it's proverbial eagers,sss to
be at the front, and was glad to mako
the acquaintance Of q member of tha

Presently a boy came along, selling

Dots Chloe Pulitzer's paper said
Mr.: Tuite: @Pulitzer he vas in nv
rechiment. I vas IN Company q und
he vas in Company L.
Then Mr.. Tuite laughed and said he
was thinking Of the good joke Capt.
elmons, of Company E, once played
on Pulitzer.
Capt. Simons, so the story went

rawboned old crowbait, with gals and
puffs and knobs all over him. and a
stiff legged trot that would jounce a
rider black and blue in two miles.
But the worst characteristic of the an
ina! was his persistent refusal to
go into battle. Belabor the brute
as he might, Capt. Simons could
not urge him into q fight. So the
Captain, being q fearless soldier. al
ways eagerly seeking the thickest of
the fray, tried his utmost to swap the
old nag off, but the old nag's fame
had gone forth and none of the daunt-
less cavalrymen would have him at
any price. At last sutler, who, by
the way, had always been particular
friend Of Private Pulitzer, of Company
Z, told the Captain slyly that he
thought he could stick the old beast
off on the private aforesaid. So, to cut
the story shorter than Mr.. Tuite cut
it, Pulitzer bought the horse, giving
therefor his own good horse and con-
siderable sum of money to boot.

terously. "Dot horse vot he traded

"Did Private Pulitzer keep the horse
after he found he wouldn't go into
battle?" I asked.
ooh, ya," said Mr.. Tuite, "Pulitzer

he wouldn't kick apout it after dot.

G,onsstreet had Just come up with part
Of his corps from Chambersburg, Pa,
and vigorously assailed sickles' Corps,
which he was driving back in great
disorder. sickles halted and formed
his men in line to receive Longstreet's
onslaught. 1t was one OF the few tunes ne
I ever saw corps commanders at the
front line. Sickles with his staff, was

ing Oh their defenders everything
which the scanty Confederate larder
could supply, while from many Of the
houses gloves, socks and comforters
ra1ned down upon the companies. Mr..
T. g. DeLeon, in "Four Years in
Rtbel Capitals" gives an incident con-
nected with this march of the sort
which is calculated to move the rough-
ese soldiers heart.
The Southern soldier was ever q
ch%erful animal, with general spice
of sardonic humor. Refreshed inward
~ and outwardly, the men would
mtrch down the street, answering the
wiring handkerchiefs at every window
wish wild cheers. Nor did they spare
anT amount of chaff to those luckless
stfy-at-homes encountered on the
STREETS.
eCome out'r that black coat" II
know ye're conscrip'! Don't yer want
'er 20 for a sojer?" "Yere's yer
chrnce ter git yer snbtertootl"
These and similar shouts, levelled
at the head of some unlucky wight,
brought roars of laughter from the
soldiers and from the victims unaym-
pathetic friends.
At one house a pale, boyish-looking
youth was noted at . window with .
lady. Both energetically waved hand
kerchiefs, and the men answered with
q yell; but the opportunity was too
good to lose.
@Coms right along, sonny!" was the
CRY. "The lady'll spare yer! Here's q
little muskit fur vel"
"All right, boys!" cheerily responded
the youth rising from his seat. "Have
you got q leg for me, too?" and Colonel
tho window seat.
With one impulse the battalion
halted, faced to the window, and came
to <Present!" as their cheers ratified
the windows of that block. That chord
had been touched by which the rough
est soldier is ever moved.

did not often refer. This was the at
tempt to blow up Fort Fisher by means
of powder boat. The idea was orig
inal with Gen. Butler, but Admiral
Porter approved of it and helped to
get the consent of Gen. Grant and the
authorities at Washington to the exc
cution of the plan. A steamer was
procured at Beaufort, N. O., and there
loaded with several tons of powder.
After some delay on account of storms
the floating magazine was, on the
night of Dec. %, 1864, towed toward
the fort by gunboat. Then the pow
der boats own machinery propelled
her to within about five hundred yards
of the shore. Those on board set the
clock-work which was to cause the ex-
plosion at given time, and quietly
slipping into boats left her proceeding
slowly toward the rebel fertilization.
The Federal fleet hurried out to sea
to be safe from the effects of the ter
rible upheaval. "At 2 o'clock in the
morning" says General Grant in his
Memoirs, "the explosion took place,
and produced no more effect on the
fort, or anything else on land, than
the bursting of q boiler anywhere on
the Atlantic Ocean would have done.
Indeed. when the troops in Fort Fisher
heard the explosion they supposed it
was the bursting of boiler in one of
the Yankee gunboats.

when he ran away and enlisted in the
British army, where he served three
years. That experience turned out to
be of benefit to him when, after he
had come to this country and had set
tied at Helena, the civil war broke out.
He cast in his lot with the community
in which he found himself, and proved
most devoted advocate of the South
ern cause. He is credited with having
planned the capture of the United
States Arsenal in Arkansas in 1861,
and in short time he rose to the rank
of Brigadier General and thence to
that of Major General. As brigade
commander he distinguished himself
at Shiloh, and later was wounded at
Perryville. As division commander
he was very conspicuous at Stone
River, Chickamauga, Missionary Ridge,
and all through the Atlanta campaign,
toward the end of which he had charge
of a corps and he was killed at the
battle of Franklin. While Irish SOL
diers were more abundant in the Union
army, there were many on the Confed-
crate side, and we now recall none Of

New York, April 4.-The details of an

yesterday. The victims were Luigi Bel

gieri was an overseer for n Mr.. Preacher,
who is erecting large number of laborers'
cottages near Alberdia, in the Argentine

Malta. On Monday morning February

occupied was found TO be partly burned.
When an investigation was made Belgieri
and his wife were discovered dead on the
floor. Both bodies were horribly multi

literally smashed in with heavy mallets
used In breaking stone, and the bodies had
several bullets and stab wounds. After
killing the couple the murderers, no doubt,
set fire to the house TO hide their crime.
Four laborers who disappeared during the
