A SOLDIERS STORY.
J&aea Franklia Fitts , in Chicago.
I
I believe it happened in the second
year of the war. Tho memories of
that time aro becoming confused ;
names and dates are escaping us ,
even places and situations are get
ting mixed. The strange incident
which I am to tell would not gain
interest if my name and the names
ofallcounectcd with it were to be
stated. So my prefpee will end with
the statement that the story speaks
of tho year 18G2 , and of a locality
Eomr where in Virginia.
Our division lay well back from the
front ; too far back , these occur
rences proved. I was a sergeant-
an infuntry regiment. We had lain
there a week , and everything seemed
peaceful and quiet. Such soldiering
was fun , we used to any. Good and
plentiful rations , drills and parades ,
plenty of time to smoke , to play
cards , to criticise McClellan , and tell
each other how tho war should bo
conducted and plenty of leisure to
write letters homo to tho girls.
Those who were given to grumbling
said that this was mere holiday work ;
that we had seen little enough o
real war , so far , and was not likely
to see more. Such impatience gave
Max , the veteran of our company
who had seen war in Europe , tho op
portunity to say , " 0 you vaits.boys ,
you vaits. You see him quick enough
and close enough , mine Gott , you
does. "
The change came in the night , the
dead of nfcrht. The sleepers were
roused with tho words , "Get ready ;
we inarch at once. " There was a stir
a murmur all through the camps.
"We did not know what had happened
only the very air was full of stir and
action. Withinthehalf hour we were
in line , in column. This shadowy
battalion , made up of dark figures
laden with muskets and accoutre
ments , joined other regiments , also
under arms and moving ; indistinct
shapes of men on horses went by ;
without loud words ofcommand , with
nothing more than a "iorward ? "
uttered under the breath by the cap
tains , our brigade in the leadtook up
the route-step and plunged into the
night in the direction of the front.
I was young inthestern experiences
of soldier Iifejnone of us were veterans ,
saving Prussian Max. Tho good
blood of soldiers of 177G and 1S12
was in my veins , and I had the ardor
and strength of snulthat belongs to
the youth of 20. Looking back now
at the events of those hours , it does
not seem to me that I was at any
time unduly excited. Yet it was hard
for me to make what was passing be
fore me , I being part of it seem real.
The call had come so suddenly , the
movement Avas so prompt , so rapid
and silent , the night was so obscure
clouds for the most part hiding the
faint stars , that some ghostly qual
ity seemed to invert it. Not from
the first had I heard a loud order
given , a loud word spoken. The bur
den of quick-coming terrors lay upon
thousands. The men , usually so
talkative and jovial , were hushed in
to a silence that was almost painful.
Marching in my place in the line of
file-closers at the right , now and then
a whisper in the ranks came to meor
a few low-spoken words ; once I heard
the man. next the captain ask , "Do
you think it's a battle , cap ? " and the
brief reply " 0,1 don't know I don't
know. "
For three hours we marched thus
across the country , ranks well closed
up , no straggling. Then the depths
of a dense wood swallowed the
column ns it filed sharply to the left.
A short cut , we afterward learned ,
liad been found , and a guide to show
the way. It was apparently a cow-
path , or at the best a cart-path ,
through the forest ; four men abreast
filled it. For miles , now , we went on
almost in the dark , everything black
to the right and leftonly the muffled
sound of the moving of this host ,
likeantumy of phantoms , the beat
ing of many feet on the ground , the
subdued whispers , clank of canteen
on a bayonet sheath. Above the
tree tops ve sometimes sawa ray of
starlight.
"Then , as we marched and we had
been moving six hours , but with a
single brief halt a , noise came faintly
out of the distance like a far-off peal
of thunder. Another came , and still
another. The sound set the blood
tingling in my veins. As we pressed
on , the noises gr6w louder and more
frequent , like the striking of enor
mous clocks ; further on they were
blent into what seemed to be an un
remitting roar , out of which came at
times sharp and short explosions.
Something seemed to crowd the
files to the right and left : I dimly saw
a mounted figure riding at a walk
down tlirough the center of the
column in the interval thus made ;
and I heard a voice quietly and earn
estly , but without excitement , ut
tering the words : "Push ahead ,
men ! push ahead ! "
* * The General , " I heard somebody
say.
say.The incident blended strangely
withthescene. Still there was no
shouted order , no oaths , no noisy
action ; only a shadowy figure riding
slowly through quietly uttering a few
earsest words. He had gained many
paces to the rear before I ceased to
ear these words repeated again and
again ( for all around was still )
"JAaek ahead , m eaJ-push. ahead ! } ' _
Tie ste isie up Twen we > cameout
into the open. The great plain was
obscured with drifting smoke , rent
here and there ith red flashes ; invis
ible masses of iron shrieked and
whistled over our heads. A burning
koB&e and a barn off to the left show
ed as disjointed lines of blue and
gray. Directly in our front the
woods , the houses , the stone walls
vomited fire and lead. Orders came
feeithea ! We doubled-quijked into
i ya aBBlBly
lino ; wo were in tho awful maw o !
battle.
IT.
I did not mean to doscribo the
battle. There were somo thousands
of women made widows that day ,
and many thousand of children made
orphans , and I am informed that the
great generals who write books about
tho war have said thnt this battle
might just as well not have been
fought ; that it had no influnceo on
tho campaign. 0 , the pity of it ! It
was my first battle , and to meit was
a lurid dream. For hours I was en
veloped in fire , smoke and shouting.
I saw men all about mo with the
frenzy of fighting in their eyes , their
nerves all strung. I saw familinr
faces staring in the rigors of death
up at the skies , and saw bravo men
sorely smitten going to the rear.
But it was all a nightmare to me.
We held our line , we fell back into
the woods , wc advanced again , cheer
ing ; thus tho long day passed. Noth
ing touched mo though after the
battle I found bullet-holes in my
blouse. Isupposel did my part : I
really don't know. It is all like a
dream.
At nightfall there was a lull. The ene
my's lines were considerably with
drawn. We talked about fighting
again the next day , and how we should
likely whip them. Our regiment was
near the ground we had fought on. The
orderly of our company called the
roll ; more than a dozen did not ans
wer ; most of them would never ans
wer again. We took our guns down
from the stacks and laid them under
the rubber blankets beside usto pro
tect them from the night dew ; we
chewed our hard-tack , talked , and
slept. Soon we were roused up. A
detail for picket was made. Our
captain was officer of tho picket ; I
and three men were taken from the
company.
A few hours later on the reserve ,
the captain fainted away. He was a
little slip of a fellow who left college
to recruit this company. He was
weak in body , but with a soul of fire
in it. When he came to I said to him
"Captain , you're sick ; you must go
in and get relieved. " He was too
feeble to speak , but pointed to his
shoulder. 1 examined it , and what
do you think ? There was an ugly ,
ragged wound , still bleeding , from a
minie ball that was in his blood that
minute , and he said nothing about
it.
it.I
I made him as comfortable as I
could with blankets , and sent in one
of the men to ask for an ambulance
or a stretcher to take him back.
There was no other officer with the
reserve ; I was in command. The
hour was past midnight ; the pickets
ought to be visited from the reserve
before the field officer came round , to
see that they were on thealert. . I
went out on the line.
They were all vigilant. At one
post t stopped ; our Prussian Max
was there. We stood talking , when
two horsemen approached from the
direction of our lines. Tho picket
sharply halted them. One dismount
ed and came forward leading his
horse. It was an orderly ; he said
that the ( General was at hand. Max
called out "Correct advance ! " and
the other horseman rode up.
He stayed there a few minutes and
asked many questions. From mo he
learned where the reserve lay , what
officer was with it , and why I was on
the line instead of lie. He asked
Max if he had seen any signs of the
enem3''s picket inour front , and the
soldier pointed outsomeplaceswhere
before dark he liad seen suspicious
appearances.
The General looked thoughtfully
and long into the haze that covered
the field. The night was almost
cloudless , but everything below was
murky and dim. Objects could not
be distinguished beyond.a few rods.
"Fll ride a little way .out and see
for myself. "Orderly , go back to
the reserve and wait. Two of us
mijyht attract attention. "
The familiar brown horse with a
white face disappeared out at the
front ; the orderly wrote back. Max
shook his head.
"That's not prudent , " was my
remark.
"Big general , big fool , " was the
Prussian's blunt comment.
Some hidden influence held me
therefor ten minutes. Never since
have I been so .affected sby the un
seen. Something bade me stay
there a little.
We heard a faint-crackle of musket-
shots far out to the front. The picket
grasped his gun ; both of us looked
and listened intently.
Out from the misty , smoky ob
scurity a horse came madly charging
right upon us. There was but an
instant's glimpse ; but my comrade
and I have always agreed perfectly
about it. A brown horse , with a
white lace and wild eyes , bridle flying
about the fore feet , galloping
straight upon us.
So suddenly the thing eame that
we should have been ridden over
before we could stir. Why were we
not ? Because , as quiekly as it had
come , it vanished into the air , into
the ground , without noise of hoof
beat.
"Goot Gott's mercy ! " cried Max. "
" 'Tis the doppelganger the ghost
of the horse ! "
I hurried back to the reserve , and
sent in a report to headquarters. A
strong cavalry reconnoisance went
out immediately. The general
and his horse were found dead mid
way between our pickets and those
of the enemy , both riddled with bul
lets. There had been a brave effort
to reach our line before horse and
rider sank down and expired togeth
er.

It was in 18G2 ; and for three years

whipping its forefeet ; I awake with a

man who wdl toll you that tho working
ruon are mad ; that thoir minds have
become poisoned by tho v rus of an
archy aud communism ; that tlioy have
mado a shrino of tho trades union and
ii god of tho walking dologato , aud
that tho sooner things como to a head
tho hotter. In short , that thoro is no
salvation for society hut in a free use
of tho policeman ' s baton. Such men
are , without knowing it , tho most dan
gerous element in tho community ; tlioy
can , and do , commit more mischiof in
a day than adozon ordinary criminals
would in a lifo time. Tho trouble with
them is puro , ignorant stupid selfish
ness. Their horizon is bounded by
thoir money bags , thoir interests cen
tered in thoir bauk ledger , and they
will do anything to conserve tho ono
and add to tho other. Such men and
thoro are many of them will rail by
the hour against working men for try
ing by combination to raise their dol
lar and a half a day to two dollars , and
will immediately turn around and cor
ner wheat or pork , squeeze their weak
er brethren out of millions of dollars ,
and by weight of their pui'3e and so-
called financial genius levy tribute
on the general public. Thoy will form
nice little syndicates , buy up tho con-
! trolling interests in railways , squeeze
out tho smaller shareholders often
"the widow and Lite fatherless , "
water tho stock fifty or a hundred per
ceut. and compel tho public to pay in
terest on that basis ; or they will buy
the entire gas plant of tho dt\T , that
thoy may force the publie to pay any
figure they cboose to charge , and all
tho time they look upon themselves as
shrewd business men who are engaged
in a perfectly legit mate business. The
cunning loafer who stands in some
shady corner and plays the
"shell game" believes that he is
a legitimate trader. aud takes
positive delight in "skinning the
suekers , " but somehow the police
don't tako tho samo view of tho
matter , but insist on carrying him off
to jail whenever they can lay hold of
him , and I think thoy are right in do
ing so. I firmly believe that all such
fellows should be sent to the penitenti
ary and mado to work for a living ;
but what bothers me is to find an hon
est difference between the man who
swindles by means of three shells and
1 a pea , and another who by combina
tion and the unscrupulous use of cap
ital forces the public to pay an addi
tional price for the necessaries of life ;
or why. if one is sent to prison the
other should be allowed to enjoy his
ill gotten gains in ostentatious display.
It seems to me as though a belter case
could be made out for the 4shell
man" than the monopolizer of gas
atocks , as no one is under any necessi
ty to patronize the manipulator of the
little pea. 1' whereas nearly all must
so gas , or suffer inconvenience.
It is about time society should step
in and equalize matters a little. It ia
about time that capital should learn
{ that there are many duties and re
sponsibilities attaching to wealth , and
learn to discharge them. American

Ancient Ituliis in Now ninxlco.
The remains of another extensive an
cient citj7 have been discovered in New
Mexico. It is about a mile north of San
Mateo. 'The action of the windshiido
covered the larger portion of the ruins
with sand aud other detrious , and con
verted the Avholo into an extensive
mound , and it was only a severe rain
storm and cloudburst sweeping away
one angle of this mound and disclosing
some heavy stonewalls that made the
discovery possible. Human skeletons
have been exhumed , and what appears
to have been a citidel. Chicago Herald.
A Foritninto African.
Xew York Pres , August 28th.
Amos Marsh , the Orange ( N. J. ) Afri
can who won $15,000 in The Louisiana
State Lottery the other day , doth not
behave himself at all unseemly. When
he got the cash in his hands it came to
him by the Adams Express Company ,
and the freight was $60 he found tho
mail who sold him the half of the win
ning ticket and gave him SoO. Having
relieved himself of this gift , the most
fortunate darkey of his time proceeded
to give his son , a rather happ3'-go-lucky
youth , who does odd jobs about , some
thing like $1,200 or $1,500 , merely as a
nest Cfxg , as it were , to a future brood of
as many thousands. Then the delighted
Amos the next day he had prohaldy not
slept a wink in the night , with all tho
mone3r in the house hired u back ,
though the distance to the savings banks
was only io blocks awajand rode ,
with Mrs. Maivh on the seat 03his side ,
to make a deposit. It had been the orig
inal idea of Amos to 11113two houses ;
not that he was not satisfied with his
present accommodations , but because he
thought that would be a good invest
ment to begin with ; but his duskjmis
tress promptly vetoed that bill , and in
sisted that one of the bank officers ,
whom all the people of the place knew
as a kind aud wise man , should decide
for them at their leisure what should be
done with the mone3 .
Public IiiiiiiIk Roins Wry Fust.
For the fiscal year 18S7-8 the sales of
public lands in this country amounted
to $11,005,000 , compared with $0,000,000 ,
of the year previous , and $5,000,000 for
each of the two preceding vears. As
earty as 185G , says the Xew York Com
mercial Bulletin , the laud sales rose
nearly to $9,000,000 , but then they fell
off and went as low as $152,000 in 18i2 ( ,
and never rose above $4,000,000 again for
twenty .years. In 18S2 thev again reached
$5,000,000 ; in 18S3 , nearlv $8,000,000 ; in
1884 , nearly $10,000,000 , and then after
two j-ears at $5,000,000 the3' began to
rise , and for the 3ear just closed reached
their highest mark.

to have nothing in it worth living for. " "I
have experienced all those symptoms my

eleventh hour from the commission of : i
deed which I shudder to think of. A friend
advised me to take Dr. Pierce's Favoiite

What Ih Hloxie ?
This is a question asked every daj- .
About three years ago ii was discovered in
a common swamp reed , looking like sugar
cane. It is found mainly near the equator
and in Central America. The plant grows
fr im four to fifteen feet high. The juice is
nearby tasteless , and taken in large quan
tities causes a sensation as of light electric
currents , which after two hours give place
to a solid , vigorous , enduring feeling that
lasts the same as a good meal on a faint ,
hungry stomach.
