The soldiers greatest victory is not

AT last the flow was stopped. The
officer was carried in a stretcher to the
temporary field hospital. TIE doctors
examined the wound; ampn lation of
the leg must take place at once, and
the patient might die under the knife.
Bedell heard the diagnosis.

They laid him on the table. His
native vigor was in his favor, but his
great size was against him. Sixty-four
square inches Of flesh were laid bare be-
fore the operation was over. The right
hand was crushed, but the surgeons
dared not touch it until it was seen
whether the patient would rally from
the amputation-
That evening the camp had to move,
and the jolting journey was an awful
ordeal for the wounded man. At last,
expecting his death at any moment,
the doctors had him carried to a farm
house by the way. In the morning he
had gained little strength.

said he. "For a year more it belongs

Again he was laid on the operating
table. He did not wish to take an
anesthetic, but he submitted when the
doctor said
"The operation on the hand and the
dressing of the wound will be very
painful, and therefore exhausting. You

Col. Insersoll's Captor.

During Robert q. IngerSOll's visit
to Memphis, Tenn, an Incident oc-
Cured that served to remind him OF his
war experience. After the lecture he
attended a reception given in .iis honor
by Col. and Mrs. William X. Moore.

vague recognition.

Forests men from crossing a certain
deep stream. Leaving the greater part
of his command to destroy a bridge,
Ingersoll moved up one side of the
stream with few men and a field
piece in order to annoy the Confeder-
ates on the other side before they could
reach the bridge. But Forrest got to
the bridge, crossed 1t, and by superior
numbers routed its defenders. Then
he proceeded after Ingersoll. The
Union colonel was endorsed while leap
ing a fence and the enemy, led by
Major Rambaut, was on him ere he
could rise. Immediately after the cap

Colonel Ingersoll's good humor
pleased Forrest, who treated him well
and eventually exchanged him. After
the war Forrest and Ingersoll renewed
their acquaintance at Washington and
became warm friends, but the colonel

Gov. Noel, being convinced in
his own mind that the Quin Bill
to provide for the nomination of
all judges and fchancelIors by a
primary election before they are
appointed and their names sent to
the senate for confirmation, is un-
constitutional, the Governor sub
mitted the question to the Su-
preme Judges for an opinion on
this point. The opinion, render
ed by Judges Whitfield and
Mayes (Judge Calhoon being
sick), is that such bill is unques-
tionably unconstitutional, null
and void, and that if we are to
have an elective judiciary, it must
come in the manner prescribed by
the constitution itself. The opin-
ion is clear and logical one, and
to us, seems absolutely urans wer-
