answered his friend. 1 hey ex-
pected opposition from the Pres.
ident and faculty, but old and
voung were alike filled with en-
{husiastic devotion for the old
flag of the republic, and for
those sterling principles and
great ideas of which it is th em-
blem. The friends expressed
their desires and intentions.
So fa®¥rom meeting any oppo-
sition from the President, the
venerable patriot praised them
for their determination, and en-
ouraged them to honor them-
selves and their college by faith-
fully doing their whole duty as
patriot soldiers. He gave them
prayers and bade them God
speed, when full of hope and de-
termination they left the college
gates. .
© The friends obtained commis-
sions in the same company as
lieutenants, Kingston being the
first and Milford the second.
In this matter as 1n many
others, Frank gave precedence
to his friend for no other rea-
son than this: Luther had a
sister of such trancendant beau-
ty and incomparable perfections
(in Frank's estimation, )that he
regarded all connected with her,
hy ties of blood, as belonging to
a somewhat superior race of be-
ings. © We do not profess an ci-
tive agreement with Frank Mil-
ford in his estimation of Lucy
Kingston's character. but she
was certainly a tine girl ; young,
amiable, beautiful and refined;
and strange as it may seem,
her opinion of Frank exactly
corresponded with Lis opinion
of her go that most of their dis-
putes, seldom very serious, arose
out of protestations against
over estimates. 'They® loved
each other as only the young
and hopeful can love, but Lucy
made no attempt to keep Frank
within call when the trumpets
were sounding. She told him
to go while the tears were in her
eyes; she embroidered a white
silken bauner for his company,
and we happened to know, from
perfectly ‘reliable gentleman,”
that when the orator, who was
“to make the presentation speech
desired to be ‘crammed,’ she
told him to say that ‘the doners
of that white flag would rather
it should return all blackened
with powder smoke, riddled
with bullets, and stained with
the blood of those they loved
most dearly, than to seeit again |
waving over unbarined but dis-
honored soldiers,” and much
more to the same purpose, out
of which the orator above men-
tioned—the village] lawyer—
manufactured certain peridos
gloing with eloquence, which
would have caused immense en-
thusiasm, had not the effect been
marred by the too frequent fin-
troduction of the words ‘gentle-
men of the jury” by mistake.
Lucy was a noble, brave girl;
she meant all she said ; so ifany
soldier entered the field full of!
that high and chivalrous cour-
age which love and patriotisin
combined alone can inspire, that |
soldier was Frank Milford.
The long days in camp, be-
fore starting for the seat of war,
were weary cuough, but at
length the order eame. When
the parting came, Lucy said
nothing at all about ‘coming
back with your shield or on it,”
because she had ro time to ‘aet
up” anything in the dramatic
line, and besides, she had for-
gotten all about those old Spar-
tan women, whoused to sav such
things because they are ‘made
without hearts, or’ had their
hearts hardened by a peculiar
and disgusting process before
they arrived at maturity. She
only said » ¥
‘Dear Frank, I hope the
war will soon be over, and that
you will come back to us all
safe. You and I love the oth-
er just the same while we ave
separated. Good bye, Frank;
good bye; keep with Luther
all the time. Good bye, my
own dear Frank. And she
wound her arms about his neck
and nestled closely to his heart
and wept there—good honest
New England girl as she- was,
and is.
‘Frank could not stand this.
His own eyes were. swimming ;
he left the house almost repent-
ing of his patriotic resolution.
A great crowd was about the
depot where the regiment was
to take the cars. A bystander
said, in a gruff, coarse voice:
‘There goes a pretty soldier ;
he is erying because he has got
to leave his mother.
Said Frank, -turning about,
* You are a snivelling coward,
or you wouldn't have said
that.’ :
‘Coward am I? said the
bully, approaching with clench-
ed fist.
“Yes, a coward,” said Frank,
and he gave the ruffian’s nose
£0 hearty a twist that he shriek-
ed with pain, while the bystand-
ers sald, “That's right.’ Af
ter this Frank felt better; his
spirits revived and he went on
his way rejoicing,
Luther and Frank loved
each other better than brothers
usually do, and they never
tired of each other’s society;
on daty and off, they were as
much together as circumstan-
ces would permit; they mutu-
ally confided in cach other;
and when Frank sometimes
reads over Luther's letters to his
sister, he wondered how his
comrade could address an an-
gel precisely as though she was
an ordinary huinan being.
One thing only marred the
happiness of the friends; they
were comparatively idle, and
they wanted action. the
mere routine of camp duties
pallied upon them, and they re-
frained from complaint only
because they had sense enough
to understand that the disci-
pline of the camp was a neces-
sary preparation for successful
action upon the field.
It was July, and an advance
was to be made. Both of our
friends were full of joy. With
banners flying and drums beat-
ing the army marched out to-
ward Manasses. The
regiment was in the thickest of
the fight; in the midst of the
confusion of that terrible day
the companies became separa-
ted from each other, and many
of them wholy disorganized ;.
the company to which our
friends belonged formed no ex-
ception. When the retreat
was ordered, Lieut. Kingston
could not muster more than
twenty men; Milford was no-
where to be found.
“Who knows anything of
Lieut. Milford ?” said Luther.
“I saw him try to lift up the
Captain a minute after he fell,

‘the Colonel, Kingston named
Lieut. Milford among the miss-
ing.
The term for which the two
friends enlisted had expired,
but Luther could not make up
his mind to return home alone,
and he applied for and obtain-
ed a captain's commission in a
new regiment. Bat no move-
ment of importance was mad
and the yeung captain dwell-
ing upon the loss of his com-
rade, became depressed in spir-
its: he felt lonely and desolate
and oftentimes expressed the
wish that he might exchange
places with * Frank, who; he
fully believed, was under the
sod of the battle field. :

~The captain was still suspi- |
(cious, and taking his revolver
from his belt; ascertained that
it was ready for use, before he
said— ;

‘You will find us all right,

vanced slowly from the bushes.

my’s line, The long mareh, |
the necessity for action during |
the operation of laying out of
the camp and pitching. the
tents, had partially removed
the young officer’s melancholy,
but it veturned with tenfold
force after nightfall, when the
thought would come that he was
drawing nearer to the spot
which had been made sacred to
him by his great bereavement.
ITe rejoiced when his duty call-
ed him to make the rounds of
the picket post, and he walked
rapidly in the ¢hill moonlight
night from station to station,
exchanging a kind word with
each sentinel. lle had nearly
gone the entire round when he
stopped for a few moments at a
post occupied by a soldier fron
his own town, onc of his boy-
hood playmates; he was lean-|
ing heavily upon his rifle, and |
his attitude betokened that de- |
gree of fatigue which verges up- |
on exhaustion. A few mo-
ments conversation ended in a
proposition from the Captain
to complete the round as soon
as possible, then to return and
take the place of the third pick-
et guard until the relief came,
which would be in little more
than an hour.
This arrangemrnt = being
made, Captain Kingston soon
found himself, musket in hand
sitting upon the trunk of a fall-
en tree, watching the ‘gilmmer
of the rebel fives on the sides of
the hills only a mile or two
away. His thoughts were not
of the most amiable descrip-
tion. Behind those hills the
bloody battles had been fought;
there his warm hearted brave
young friend had fallen, one of
the sacrifices upon the altar of
our country’s liberty—perhaps
even now the feet of traitors
were on his. breast. Many
weeks had passed since that fa-
tal day. Frank might have
lingered on, grievously wound-
ced, for many days, tormented
with thirst and fever by day,
and feeling the marrow. of his
bones grow cold when the chill
night wind swept over him—
perhaps hisbones still lie bleach-
ing'on the field. "All images
of horror forced themselves into
the mind of the lonely watcher:
he could not shake them off
and he began to repent of his!
kindness to his fellow soldier. |
His thoughts were interrupted |
by the sudden quick erack of
half a dozen rifles from the en-
emy’s lines, far away ; but hear-
Ing nothing more, he soon con-
cluded that the rebel pickets

cause and resumed his watch.
ing and his thinking. He
lighted a match, and, examined
his watch, found that relief
might be “expected in half an
hour. He had just returned
the watch to its place, when he
heard a rustling among some
bushes only some paces in ad-
vance.—le leveled his rifle
and cocked it before saying—
¢ Who goes there ?’
‘ If you are a Union sentry, a
friend,” was the answer- ak

sign,’ said the captain.

last saw him.
Frank's story was a short
one. IIe had been wounded
and taken prisoner while in the
act ofigiving to a'wotnded re-
bel a drink of ‘water from his
canteen. His wound was not
serious and he had been remov-
ed from place to place until an
opportunity should occur for
sending him to Richmond; Le
had accidentally met the very
soldier to whom he had given
the water upoh’ tlie battlo-ticld ;
he had argued or.ridiculed his
treason out of him, and they
had managed to come together
to pay their respects. to the
stars and stripes: +All that
Frank wanted at that partica-
lar moment, was a couple of
clean shirts, a ‘decent suit of
clothes, and a free ticket home,
The next day, proceeded by
a telegraphic message, thé
friends, having obtained a fur-
lough, started from Washines
ton. They arfived home in
good time, and in one short
month, after the performance of
his one night's picket dnty,
Capt. Kingston was busy su-
perintending thé distribution of
cards, fastened together in pairs
by knots of narrow white satin
ribbon. One of these picces of
cards reached us nour retive-
ment, and even®then we thought
of putting the little story of
which they formed the climax,
upon record. Buf we forgot
that ‘ the flighty purpose never
is o’ertook unless the decd

HowTnix Fire x Barrne.——
An army correspondent says:
{ments fire regularly. in volleys,
Lor whether each man loads and
fires as fast as he can. That de-
| pends upon circumstances, but
usually, except when the enemy
is near at hand, the regiments fire
only at the command of their
‘officers. - You hear a drop, drop,
| drop, as a few of the skirmishers
| fire, followed by a rattle and a
voll which sounds like the falling
of a huilding, just as some of
you have heard the brick walls
tumble atat great fire. Some-
times when a body of the ene-
my’s cavalry are sweeping down
upon a regiment to cut it to
pieces, the men form a square,
with the officers and music in the
centre, The front rank stands
with bayonets charged, while the
second rank fires as fastas it can.
Sometimes they form in four
ranks deep—the two front ones
kneeling with bayonets charged,
so thatif the enemy should come
upon them, they would run
against a picket fence of bayon-
ets. When they form in this
way the other two ranks load and
fire as fast as they can. Then
the roar is terrific, and many a
horse and his rider- goes down
before the terrible storm of bul
lets. ! : :
