He Had a Friend at Court.

A laugh was raised in the United
States district court by the testimony of
John Boye, a resident of Lewiston, NY.
Boye is old and somewhat deaf, and gave
his testimony with an air of childlike in

place on cross examination: did Rich

preservation on Staten Island, opposite
Perth Amboy, n. j. II was erected
early in the Eighteenth century by
Colonel Billop, on lands granted him by
Queen Anne, and while on the island
Lord Howe used it for his headquarters.
There he met the commissioners-Ben-

friendly talk sent them away with this
remark, Il am sorry, gentlemen, that

''Take all that are able to 20 with us; the
others must, Of course, be left; allow no
one TO be hurt. None but towards kill prls-
oners. Get your men in readiness"
A few moments later the bugle sounded
and the cavalrymen returned TO their
horses. Captain Mason, with his four trusty
companions, remained until the very last.
"Tom," said Captain Mason TO old Arkan-
saw, who was still at his post, ''you, Max,
Cotton and Snow go bring the horses TO the
front gate and wait for me. l VIII come

"We'll do Z, Cap'n; you can depend on

AS soon as every man was out of the
house Luke went into the apartment where
Lille and Elsie, halt dead with fear lest
Alberts hiding-place might be discovered,
sat on sofa clasped in each others arms.
"They are gonc," SAID Luke. III am the
last Union man in the house, and have only
come to bid you adieu."
"Luke, Luke, darling Luke, let me thank
you thousand times for saving my
brother" cried Lille, flingng her arms
about his neck.
Their lips met in warm kiss of love, and
he led her TO the sofa. where u few words of
tondest affection were spoken.
Don't forget, darling Lille, that war is
cruel, and we can not always control our
own destiny. Thank Heaven, was able TO
save your brother, but had / been only sec

less. The fortunes of war may at any time
turn against us, and one or both may fall
Hope for the best-be prepared for tie

The parting was short and replete with
tender solictude. Pressing burning kiss
on those sweet, pale lips, he fastened from
the house.
His companions were already in tho sad
die, and mounting his own horse they gal
loped down the road to overtake the cavalry.

pectcd times and places; Why was it that
he seemed to be everywhere, and at the
same time, TO know every thing, every
place and every body!
Slowly they groped their way, through
darkness, mist, dri2zle and fog. Luke was
not long in realizing that return in that
darkness was impossible They missed the
road, wandered out of their course, and
came upon "a collection of houses, which
might pass for the deserted Village "
Aftera short council of war 1t was deter

They had brodght one Of the wounded

They carried him into one of the deserted
houses and laid him on the floor, where he
died before morning. During the remainder
or the night the soldiers remained huddled
together in three of the deserted houses
listening to the pattering of the rain upon
the shingles and the expiring groans of
their dying cOmrade
Luke Mason regards this as the most
miserable night of his army life. He was
in an old hut, and worn out with fatigue
and anxiety sat shivcring and doing upon
the ground. The roof was full of holes, and
the drizzlc which finally assumed the form
OF cold rain sent the water drip, drip,

again and again selected a position whore
he hoped to be out of the leak, yet ere he
had long been in n new place the cold
water came drip, drip, dripping down upon
him, entering his collar, and gliding down
his b-ck.
But the long, drcary night came to an end,
and with the coming of tho morning the rain
ceased, though it was still cloudy, cold and
clustering.

The commander OF the expedition knew
this, and as soon rs he could got his force
in motion. They had gone about mile in
the direction of Fort Donelson when they
entered a narrow lane. On u hill stood a
large two-story farmhouse, with at least
"A dozen doors and windows facing the road.
1t stood on the left, while on the right was
q large barn.
The anxious soldiers spurred their iaded
horses onward, depending on the advanced
guard, which had G,tcady passed the house,
to warn them Of danger
The column was directly between the |
house and barn when suddenly shot from |

trying TO rally his men, his own steed,
pierced by dozen bullets, fell against the
fence.
