MY CAPTA1X.
One fine evening In the month of
July, an old soldier of the ''Grande
Arrnee," who had left one of his arm
on the field of battle, was seated at
the door of his pretty cottage. He
was surrounded by a group of young
villagers, who were clamorously re
minding hint of bis promise to tell
them some of his military adventures.
After a moment of pretended resist
ance to their wishes, the old man took
his pipe from his mouth, parsed the
back of his remaining hand across his
lips, and thus commenced his tale:
"In my time, friends, the French
would have disdained to fight against
frenchmen in the streets, as they do
ih these days. So. no ! When we
fought it was for the honor of France
and against her foreign enemies. But
rhy story commences on the 6th of
November. 1S12, a short time after the
battle of Wiazma. We beat a retreat,
not before tlie Russians, for they were
t a respectable distance from our
c-apip, but before the himrp and bitter
coi! of their detestible country a
cold more terrible to us than the Ru--bians,
Austriaus and Bavarians all put
together.
"During the preceeding days our
officers hud told us that we were ap
proaching Snioleuskc, where wesho'd
get food, lire, brandy, and shoes ; but
in the meantime we were perishing
in the glaciers, and continually har
rassed by the Cnsacke. We had
marched for six hours without stop
ping to take breath, for we knew that
repose was certain death. An icy

voices
"The Captain recovered, and Is now
f a General on tbe retired list. But the
best of the joke was, that as soon as
he got well, he put me under arrest
for fifteen days, as a punishment for
my infraction of discipline.
"This circumstance came to the ears
of Napoleon, and after laughing heart
ily, he not only caused me to be set
free, but he promoted me to tbe rank
of Sergeant. As to the decoration,
mj children, here is the ribbon at my
buttonhole, but the cross I wear next
to my heart."
And opening his vest, he showed
his eoser audience the precious relic,
suspended from his neck in a little
satin bar.
occasion. Henry Clay was the lion
of the season, commanding more re
spect and attention, ihan the Presi
dent, who was notcopular in his own
State, and waa -called "the Fox of
Kiuderhook." Clay was a tall, spare
man, with homely features, particu-
of the Alps jlarly his mouth, which was large and
prominent. His eye9 had a penetrat
ing look, and, although I was too
young to appreciate tbe matt, his
courteous manner and fine voice when
he petted the little Kentucky girl left
au impression. Postmaster-General
Granger was at the United States,
with his daughter, who was one of
the belles of the season. Baron de
Bodisco, Minister from Russia, had
just married the beautiful Miss Wil
liams, of Georgetown, D. C, and cre
ated a sensation with his bride. She
had a very fair, pale complexion, full,
plump figure, and was a decided con
trast to her husband, who somewhat
resembled the Russian bear if the
bear has a grizzled moustache and
portly person. He was a man near

Wiuu blew tlie uniting snow in our
faces, and from time to lime we stum
Lied over the frozen corpse of a com
rade. "We neither spoke nor sang; even
complaints were no longer heard, aud
that was a bad sign. I marched by
tbe side of my captain abort, strong
built, rough and severe, but brave and
true as tlie blade of his sword. We
called him "Captain Obstinate," for
when ho once suid a thing it was
fixed; he never changed his opinion.
He had been wounded at Wiazma,
and his uual crimson face was then
gha-tly pale, while a ragged white
handkerchief, all stained with blood,
was bound around his head, and ad
ded to tbe pallor of his countenance.
All at once I saw him stagger on his
legs like a drunken man, and then
fall like a block to the ground.
" Afarbleu, captain.' said I, bendinjr
over him, 'you cannot remain here.'
" 'You see that I can, since I do it,'
replied he. showing his legs.
"'Captain,' said I, 'you must not
jrive way.' .Lifting him in my arms,
I tried to put him on his feet. He
leaned on me and attempted to walk,
but in vain ; he fell again, dragging
me with him.
" 'John ' said he, 'all is over. Leave
me here and rejoin your company as
quickly as posib!e. " One word before
you go. At Voreppe, near Grenoble,
lives a good woman, eighty-two years
of age, ray my mother. Gs and see
her; embrace her for me; and tell her
what you will, but give her this purse
and my cross. It is all I have ! Now
go.'
"Is that all, Captain?'
"That is all. God bless you!
Make haste! Adieu.' My friends, I
do not know how it was, but I felt
two tears roll down my cheeks.
" 'No, Captain,' I cried, 'I will not
leave you ; either you come with me,
or I will remain with you.'
" 'I forbid you to remain.'
'"You may place me under arrest,
then, if you like, but at present you
must let me do as I please.'
" 'You are an insolent fellow.'
11 'Very good, Captaiu, butyou must
come with me.' He bit his lips with
rage, but said no more. I lifted him
and carried him on my shoulder like
a sack. You cau easily imagine that
with such a burden I could not keep
pace with my comrades. In fact, I
soon lost sight of their columns, and
could discern nothing around me but
the white and silent plains. I still
-walked on. when presently appeared
a troop of Cossacks, galloping towards
me, with furious gesticulations and
wild cries.

pletely insensible, and I resolved,
whatever it might eost me, not to
abandon him. I laid him down on
the ground and covered him with
snow ; then I crept beneath a heap of
dead bodies, leaving however, mv
eyes at liberty. Presently the Cos
sacks came up, and began to strike
with their lances right and left, whibr
their horses trampled us under their
feet. One of these heavy beasts set
his foot on my right arm and chrush
ed it, My friends, I did not speak. I
did not stir. I put my right hand in
to my mouth to s.ille the cry of tor
ture which nearly escaped from me,
and in a few minutes the Cossacks
had dispersed.
"When tbe last of them had disap
peared, I quitted my refuge and pro-
up the
following Lits of old-time gossip,
which she sends to the World:
"Every one who visits Saratoga is
sure to meet with some one who feels
a pride in stating how many success
ive Summers ho or she has passed
here, and old habitues love to dilate
upon the changes wrought aud com
pare now with then. It Is the same
old story of how much greater tbe
men were in those times of the oast.
aud how much more beautiful the
women were. The stories those time
honored habitues tell are not half as
delightful as the reminiscences of a
dear old j isslp who was here two
successive Summers in her childhood,
and did not see baratoga again for
nigh thirty years. Her recollections
of July aud August of '40 seem to me
worth transcribing. She said: "I
stayed with some relatives at the As-
tor House until the oth of July, and
remember mj- childish delight at the
fire-works which were sent up from
the pBrk in front of the hotel on the
Fourth. The next morning we start
ed for West Point, and, young as I
was, I went wild over the scenery,
the reviews and the darling cadets.
William Crittenden, of Kentucky,
n ephew of John J. Crittenden, and
John Bibb, son of G.M. Bibb, who
tbe next 3-ear wa3 Secretary of State
under Harrison and Tyler, were the
two who, from previous acquaintance,
showed attention to the merry little
girl who was in rhapsodies over ev
erything. D. S. Grant waa in the
same class with those young men, so
he has since told me in Washington,
but at that time he did not count for
much. William Crittenden, after
graduating, found no use for his
sword in his native land and joined
the filliousters at New Orleans, and
wa3 taken prisoner at Havana and
shot. He wa3 a gall in t you njf fellow.
He and Judge Crittenden, who was
killed in California by Laura D. Fair,
were brothers. It seems that trage
dies were cemmon to their family.
John Bibb was put under arrent at
West Point while we were there for
disobedience in coming to the hotel
to visit us when the rules forbade. I
remember the hop that night at the
barracks, and how all the lady dan
cers were left standing on tbe floor
when the drum tapped, as all were
dancing with cadets, who rushed
away without stopping to apologize or
explain, as, indeed, they had no time
to do. From West Point we went to
Lebanon Springs, as it was yet too
early for the Saratoga season, and our
party would not risk their reputation
for fashion by going there a day too
early. We had our colored man serv
ant with us to look nfter baggage and
save the gentlemen trouble about
tickets, luggage and such things as
were beneath their dignity. This
man always called for and settled the
bills, and RelpnlPf rnnma rmffinrr
things to rights after we took posses
sion. Lebanon was very primitive
in all of its accommodations, but we
youncsters enjoyed the freedom of
tbe place and the fine mountain pcen
enry. There was a country band of
music that played in the parlor every
evening and we used to dance. John
B. Alley, and family, Johnson's fam
ily of New York, were at the hotel.
Misses Marianne and Lvdia Allev.
I member how every one stood around
in the ball room and watched them
waltz together. At that time It was
not considered exactly decorous for
any ladies, married ladies particular-
fly, to waltz with strange gentlemen,
though foreigners did It. Miss Jones
of New York, now Mine, de Trobi
and, was one of the belles. Indeed,
there was a ball given at the United
States to decide between Miss Grang
er, Miss Jones and Miss Talmadge. as
to which should be awarded the palm
of supremacy. I saw the efrand en
tree to the ball-room that evening.
Compared to the toilets of to-day,
these young ladies were elegantly but
inexpensively dressed. They neither
wore point lace nor noticeable jewels.
White was the dress which was con
sidered the most suitable for young
ladies at that time. The President
was the first person who entered the
ball-room that evening, and escorted
a lady, whose name escapes me, for
just at that time I did not take much
interest in homely men, whether
they wero presidents or not. Grang
er and his daughter followed, and I
thought she was decidedly the hand
somest of the three belles, until after
wards when I changed allegiance to
Miss Talmadge. I dauced that even
ing, and bad my giddy little head
filled with romances about the good
time that was coming for me when I,
too, would be ranked among the
belles, aud have the handsomest
prince in the world to fall in love
with me, and fall at my feet in the
most beautiful manner and avow his
adoration of my most beautiful self.
Oh ! the dreams of youth ! Bennett
was at Saratoga that Summer, and
used to write letters to the Herald in
which the ladies were mentioned by
initials. How eagerly those mysteri
ous suggestions of individuals were
studied. They were as good as con-
uuurums. j ne Btupia lasnion or us
ing full names now destroys half the
zest. I felt very proud when I found
my name among the list, but only
wished that the thin disguise had not
been adopted. However, I felt sure
that everyone would know it wa3
meant for me. I expect that letter is
now witn some of my yehv.v aud
time-stained papers. If I could only
get an old tile or" the Herald I would
pick out the exact paper in which the
letter appeared. The daucing music
that evening was selections from the
"Postilion de Lonjumeau" and the
"Laughing Quadrille." The crack of
the whip was enchanting and the
laughing contagious. In the dining
room at the United States there wau j
a long table down the center of the
room, at which tbe gues'.s were seat
ed. All the dishes were on tbe table
and had black-tin covers. The head
waiter stood at the head of the table
and there was a waiter at each dish.
Every eyo was fixed upon the head
waiter ; he placed his right hand up
on a dish cover; aveey subordinate
followed suit, "Presto!" and off flew
overy cover under the right hand.
With due solemnity the left hand was
placed on another cover. "Open aes

"Die," and they flew off, after which
ceedea to disinter the captain. To
my joy he gave eome signa oflife; I
contrived to carry him with my one
arm towards a rock which offered a
sort of a shelter, and then I laid my
self by hia side, wrapping my cloak
around ns both.
"The night had closed and the snow
continued to fall.
- "The rear guard had long since dis
appeared, and the only sound that
broke the stillness of the night was
the whistle of a bullet, or the howling
of the wolves feasting on the corpses
that lay stretched around. God knows
wliat thoughts passed through my
head during that dreadful night,
which I felt sure would be my last
upon earth. But I remmembered the
praj'er which my mother had taught
me long before, when I was a child at
her kuee, and bending low, I repeat
ed with fervor.
"My children that did me good ;
and remember always that a sincere
and fervent prayer is sure to comfort
you. I felt astonishingly calmed
when I returned to my place beside
the captain. But the time passed,
and I had fallen into a state of half
stupor, when I saw a group of French
officers approach. Before I bad time
to speak to them their chief, a little
man dressed in a fur pelisse, stepped
towards-me, and eaid:
"What are you doing here? v hy
are you away from your regiment?

Tjointins first to the captain and then
.Miss Margaret Johnson, and others
comprised the circle of young ladies.
At lirst there were no beaux, but af
ter a while one came who was known
to the young ladies, and I proposed
that aa there was only one and all
could not have him, he should be ex
cluded altogether. Poor fellow, how
we teased aud annoyed him. He
soon took his departure. Of couise
we went to the Shaker meeting on
Sunday, and were terrible afraid of
laughing while the Shakers danced
around singing, and had an idea that
if we did such a thing we would be
thrown into a dark dungeon and nev
er see our friends again. On Monday

great deal of the Shaker mode oflife,
but trembled at the proposition to cut
off the beautiful curl3 of one of our
number and make a Shaker of her.
We traveled by stage to. Troy, and
(here took the cars for Saratoga. I
got a cinder into my eye, which burn
ed the ball, and when we arrived at
the United States Hotel my eye was
inflamed and swollen. Someone rec
ommended bathing it with brandv.
which nearly set me crazy; besides T
had taken cold and had a terrible in
fluenza. I did not go to the table the
flrat day of our arrival, but cried my
self to ?leep from fatigue, pain and dis-
upjwiniraeni. nowever, 1 Eoon re
covered, and then saw what I have
never forgotten. It was the hightof
(tie seaton, and both Congress Hall
and the United States were crowded
to their utmost capacltj I cannot
remember that the drinking of the
waters (Congress and the Columbian
were the onty springs which I remem
ber hearing much of then) was con
sidered as absolutely necessar' as
now. I remember tasting the Con
gress water, pronouncing it nasty,
and going off to the circular railway
which I thought splendid. I remem
ber meeting a great many celebrites
at the Un'Ued States. Van Buren,
then the President, was there, accom
panied by his sous, John and Smith
Van Buren. James Gordon Bennett
had given the sobriquet of Prince
John to that young man upon his re
turn from the tour of Europe a short
time before. Van Buren was a short,
rather stout man, with a bald fore
head and red hair, where there was
any. Prince John was tall, straight
and well formed. He was very dig
nified and quiet. Smith resembled
his father in stature. There were two
other sons Abrara, the eldest,' and
young Martin bnt I don't think
each waiter decorously deposited his
covers upon a side table, and the carv
ing and helping began. It was at the
United States that Summer that Sum
mer that Mrs. DeWitt Clinton snub
bed Van Buren. He and her husband
were political enemies, and when the
President addressed a remark to her
he turned her back upon him. Clay
reached Saratoga from Canada and
made a speech upon the front of the
hotel. Van Buren was at Ballston at
a political meeting. Clay, in his
speech, made some humorous allus
ions to their being so near, and hoped
he did not strike such alarm as to pre
vent his antagonist from meeting him
at Saratoga. Van Buren and Clay
were such courteous gentlemen, that
while together they behaved to each
other in the most polite manner.
there waa an amusing story told of
Mrs. Clinton, who had a stammer in
her speech. Unfortunately the man
who came to wait upon her one day
also stammered, and she thought he
was mimicking her. The waiter
thought she was deriding him ; both
got angry, the stammering grew
worse, and the scene was almost too
much for even the hest behaved per
sons to control their risibles."
