Wonderful Vitality and Pluck Of two Con

mary treatment was made. The in.
domitable pluck, great nerve and dc.
termination to live helped and sus-
tanned the lieutenant in his battle for
life and materially assisted the sur
gcons in their efforts.
Lieut.. Siegliug after months Of con
valeasencc made complete recovery
and returned to his command, and he
served with distinction until the close
of the war. Among surgeons of that
day, cf =hcn may mention The ls.e
DR.. Darby and DR.. Taylor, of Colum-
bia, as we'll as the leading men of the
army, his recovery was recorded as
one Of the most remarkable of the
time.
at this time, when the whole civ
ilized world is deeply interested in the
tragedy which terminated at the Mil
burn house in Buffalo, it is not out Of
place to make this record Of gallant
soldier in his fight for life, though he
has been long since gathered to his
fathers, covered with the honors of a
military and civic life.
In view Of the improvements in
modern surgery, the superiority Of
surgical instruments and all the ap-
pliances Of antiseptic treatment, it is
remarkable that case of this kind
should have met with SUCCESS. AS
the attending surgeon Of Lieut.. Sieg-
ling (afterward Gen. Siegling) have
thought best to ask your publication
of this record. Capt. Bachman, of
Columbia, AID the Hon. James Sim
ons, of Charleston, so we'll known to
US all, can bear testimony to the facts
and the heroism Of the officer.
The base of the she'll was secured

How to Treat Painting People.

Everyone should know how to treat
fainting person. First Of all, loosen
every tight thing from around the neck
and abdomen. That is, uufasten the
collar from around the neck, and if the
patient is woman, cut her stay laces,
If she wears stays. Allow the patient
all the fresh air possible. Do not
permit persons to crowd around, and
if in crowded place carry the patient
out or to an open window. A faint
ing person should always be laid fat
down on the back, and it greatly aids
recovery if the head can be put lower
than the body, so that blood goes
steadily to the brain. The main
cause Of fainting is that the brain is
deprived Of blood, and if tbe head is
laid low the brain gets its share again
and so resumes its workings. Cold
water sprinkled over the face, smell
ing salts or burning feathers Eeld to
the nose and tanning the face, all help
to restore consciousness. In an. or
binary case the person may be allow.
ed to sit up when conscious, and after
a little while resume her way.
The custom of giving brandy or
other spirits to person who has
tainted is a mischevious one. Allow
the patient to come to, then let her
slowly drink cupful of cold water
aud no harm is done. But if brandy
is given the person many pass from
one fit to another or become i'll from
the drink given. Medicines of any
kind are not needed after fainting,
only care must be exercised TO take
things quietly for the next two hours.
Persons subjected to these attacks
must keep out Of close, hot and un-
ventilated places, either Of devotion
or amusement. They should not take
Turkish baths or even hot baths. In
place Of the latter they may have a

President Lincoln concluded that it
would be better to leave the Northern
prisoners in the South despite tho
insufliciency Of supplies. II would
have been easy enough to bring them
to the North, where there was no lack
Of food. If the United States govern
ment had been as solicitous about the
welfare of these captives then as il
was later, when the war was over, it
might have saved the lives of some Of
these unfortunates.
Notwithstanding the poverty Of the
South and the scarcity Of food in the
last years of the war, it is signifi-
cant fact that the number Of Confed-
crate soldiers who died in Northern
prisons WAS greater than that Of
Northern soldiers who died in South
ern prisons. There was no lack of
provisions IL the North-no dearth of
comfortable clothing, no reason why
prisoners should not have been
healthy. The conditions at Andrr-
sca":!!c may haye been far different
from what they should have been.
But the same can be said, with less
excuse, for Northern prisons. The
mortality statistics prove this beyond
observation-disclosures SIM.

who sconted as an infantry scout

to walk through their camps and slip

day. I was wounded three times and
had several holes shot through my

covered his strength to such an ex-
tent that he was able to be carried to
Richmond on train, partially sup
porting himself on crutches. At
Richmond he remained as GONZALES
cent for several months, and then re-
turned to active duty in the field.
But the actual work Of soldering was
too much for even his wonderful
strength aud constitution at that
time, 80 he was Withdrawn and sent
abroad in the interest Of the Con-
federacy, serving there for many
months, but was not able to again
take his command.
When Col. Andrews reached Rich
mond the best doctors in tho Confed-
crate Capital took charge Of his case,
and he was fitted out with a silver
plato to wear across his abdomen, and
he has worn it ever since. After the
war he became almost ss s.:cng as he
was before the wound and frequently
went fox hunting. It is related that
one day he rode fifty miles on busi-
ness and pleasure combined without
feeling any serious effects from the
unusual exertion.-Baltimore Sun.

An Unfair Parallel.

The New York World intimatea that
the alleged cruel treatment of the old
men and boys in the Boer prison
camps in Bermuda will revivs recol-
leotions Of Andersonville. That is a
most unfair parallel. The British
government has abundant means at
its command to provide good food in
ample quantities for the Beers who
have been captured and sent tomili-
tary prisons. There can be no justi-
fication for tho failure Of the British
government to supply the captives
with wholesome rations three times a
day. Ifsupplies cannot be obtained
in Rern.nas .hess esa &c bought bought IL ttaas tas
United Sta.ee os aeat f.em England.
It is not matter OF ability to provide
food, for Great Britain is one Of the
richest nations in the world aud has
gold enough to feed a great many more
Beers than have surrendered or have
been captured.
AS regards the Confederate States
government, the conditions were en-.
tirely different. In the last years Of
civil wav il was almost impossible for
ths Confederate government 60 supply
les own troops with the plainest kind
Of food. Women and children were
compelled to live on half rations. a
little cornmeal and small piece Of
badly cured bacon made meal which
in the last days Of the Confederacy
was considered luxury. The porte
of the South were blockaded, and no
supplies could be obtained from With.
out. For year before the collapse Of
the Confederacy the Southern States
were literally on the verge Of starva-
tion. Under such conditions, when il
was impossible. for the Confederate
government TO Eyovide food for ita
own soldiers in sufficient quantities,
it could not, Of course, supply the
Thousands Of Northern soldiers who
had been captured with che abundant
and appetizing rations which the

Col. Andrews Terrible Wound.

Speculation as to the prospects Of the
President recovering from the wound
in his stomach has recalled to many
Baltimoreans the desperate wound re-
ceived by Col. II. Snowden Andrews,
Of the Confederate artillery service,
now living at 1O7 West North avenue.
Col. Andrews was riding on his
horse at tho battle Of Cedar Run when
shell struck him on the right side,
completely tearing away che abdomi-
nal wall, crushing the bonos Of the
hip and narrowly missing the intes-
tines as it passed out.
Col. Andrews was placed by the
roadside by some friends. Messen-
gers were sent for surgeon, but none
could be found. The colonel lay by
the roadside from noon until night.
when an ambulance picked him up.
All that time he had been suffering,
fully conscious, without any relief
whatever, and no dressing to his
wound. In falling from the horse,
and afterward as he lay prostrate,
much dirt and other foreign substan-
ces entered the wound.
After being iolted over the rough
road for eight miles he was deposited
in o farm house, still alive, much to
the amazement Of the driver and all
that were aware Of the case. When
told Of the wound the army surgeon,
vhc he'd heeH unable &c respond, hsa h!s.a
declared chat his services would have
availed nothing. At the house the
inmates thought he was about to die
at any minute and said it was useles.
20 send for doctor, but the colone
insisted That ne was going to get we'll
and to satisfy him q country doctor
who was passing by was called in.
This physicians also said it was USE
less to do anything, especially as he
had no instruments with him eave
such as were carried in the Usual %.
sortment Of country physicians. Col.
Andrews declared that he was not
going to die without strong fight for
life and ordered the doctor to proceed.
Acting under these positive instruc-
tions the doctor pulled out the intes.
tines with his bare hands, the Colonel,
who was under no anaesthetics, bear.
ing the suffering ia d stoical manner.
Pure spring water was used to wash
the intestines, after which the dooso,
replaced them as carefully as he could
and sewed up the wound. He then
set the injured leg.
It was Q slim array of instruments
with which this feat was accomplish
