opened my eyes. 1t was the morn
ing after we had discovered the plans
of Burnside's works on Miss Beach's
person. A cavalryman stood beside me,
handing me something which, after
rubbing my eyes, 1 discovered to be a
folded paper. / opened it, and read,
scrawled in pencil, in the generals
handwriting:

strict guard. On no account permit her
to communicate with anyone"

'Yes, sir, boots and saddles, long be-
fore daylight, and the whole command,
except Maj. Snatfie's men, took the road
north"
"And left me behind in charge of o
woman!"
got up, and went to the well-house,
where cooled my anger by sousing my
head and face in cold water. The gen.
cral had evidently gone on reconnois-
sance towards the railroad, and did
not believe he would get near it with
out fight. Perhaps at that very mo-
ment he was engaged with an enemy,
while loitered about country house
in charge of girl. There was some
recompense when June, the old darby
who had aided me in my search, came to
me with the information that breakfast
had been served for me by his mistress

What mistress?"

well, now, 1 like that. I've got her
daughter upstairs under guard, and she
returns the attention by ordering me a
hot breakfast. Go up and present my
compliments to Miss Beach and tell her

that won't do. The guard wouldn't let
her come. will go myself"
l climbed the stairs and knocked at
the door 1t was opened by Miss Beach,
whose color left her cheeks when she
saw me, doubtless fearing she was to be
led out for some new intiiction. lifted
my forage-cap and invited her to go
down to breakfast. Her expression
quickly changed from terror to relief,
her face breaking into a smile so happy,
so innocent, that wondered how she
could be engaged in what involved con-
slant deceit.
Going downstairs, we took our seats
at the table. Looking over the scant
meal-we had Jared much better by
foraging on the country, the country
faring less sumptuously because we
foraged on it'll made up my mind that

kept her right hand tightly closed. She
looked up at the general with wild,
hunted look. In his own face there was
an unexplained dread.
"Have you searched her, lieutenant"

"Open your hand, Margaret" he said
to her.
By this time she had risen and stood
before us at bay.
"Open your hand" the general re-
peated.
She opened her left hand and tossed
q paper ball on the floor. The general
picked it up and began to open it-no
easy task, since the paper was very
thin and tightly compressed.

took the candle from the sentry
and held it over the generals shoulder.
His face suddenly became white as a
cloth.
"Burnside's defenses, with every d.
vision, brigade, battery, laid down in

looked at Miss Beach to note the
effect of the discovery, expecting her to
drop in faint. What was my surprise
to see instead relieved expression, as
though she had escaped a great danger!
