The Horse In Battle.

A veteran cavalry horse partakes
of the hopes and fears of bsttle just
the same as his rider. As the column
swings into line and waits, the horse
grows nervous over the waiting. II
the wait is spun out he will tremble
and sweat and grow apprshensive. II
be has been SIX months in service be
knows every bugls call. As the call
comes to advance the rider can feel
him working at the bit with his tom
que to get it between his teeth. Az
he moves out he will either seek to
get on faster than be should or bolt.
&c cannot bolt, however. The line
will carry him forward and after .
minute he will grip, lay back his ears,
and one can feel his sudden resolve
to brave the worst and have done
with it as soon as possible.
A man seldom cries out when in
the turmoil Of battle. It is the same
with the horse. Five troopers out Of
six when struck with q bull t are out
Of their saddles within q minute. II

ing head until loss Of blood brings
him down. The horse that loses his
rider and is unwounded himself will
continue to run with his set OF fours
until some movement throws him out.
Then he goes gllloping here and there
neighing with fear and alarm. but he
will not leave the field. In hiS racing
about he may get among the dead
and wounded, but he will dodge them
if possible, and in any case leap over
them. When he has coms upon three
