FIVE YEARS ON GUARD,
During the French empire every
' regiment had its dog, whose intelli•
genes, thanks to tho soldiers' care,
was improved by-education and dis
cipline.' The - grand army'sidogs were
picked up almost everywhere,- except
inllngland.,' They had booffirecruited
iu Poland, in Prussia, in Holland, in
Saxony, mid in Flanders. They were
mongrel mastiffs, bounds, Danish dogs
and spaniels. But no matter whence
they came, they soon turned out
French.. Foreign dogs were naturali
zed without knowing it.
Rugcn is an island on the Black Sea,
opposite to Stralsund, on the coast
of Pomerania. Fortified both by na
ture and art; its situation is exceedi ng
lystrong.* In time of peace, in conse
quence of its fertile soil, its salubrious
and its mild climate, it is a delight
ful retreat. In time of war it is an
important poSt, a natural citadel, a
formidable fortress, whose possession
has been purchased at the expense of
many a bloody fight. During the
campaign of 1807 this island was com•
prised in their sphere of operationl
voust, RYA_ 1 Mr, “Alc
arawaceCupied - by an infan
try regiment of the lino, and by sever
al companies of sappers and miners.—
The regiment, of course, had a dog—a
black-and-white poodle—named Cupu
cin, not because be was born in a Ca
pucin convent, in Italy (which would
have boon quite a sufficient reason),
but in allusion to the copper or iron
rings by which a gun barrel is fasten
ed to its stock. The dog's sharp bark
might, perhaps, have been thought to
resemble the snappy report of a mus
rIIILADELPIII.t, PA.
In consequence of a change in the
plan of operations ordered by Napo
leon the First, the island had to be
suddenly evacuated, to carry out .a
movement in retreat, abandoning the
whole lino of the Pomeranian coast.—
Every Post, every man was withdrawn,
but in such a hasty way that they for
got an advanced tentinel, perched on
the top of a hillock, which comman
ded the entrance of Rugen. This
sentinel was a young soldier, named
Firtnin Bonard, who had scarcely been
three months in the service. At pros
ont a: soldier who has served three
years is considered quite a veteran.—
At that time troopers who could reck
on three, five, Seven and nine years of
service, wore AtilL called conscripts.—
New, Bonard, the soldier, and Cape
cin, the dog, happened to' be particu
lar friends, bound by the strongest ties
of mutual attachment.

of calculated on being relieved at two
in the morning, and also that from two
till five in tho morning ho would have
three good hours to doze and slumber
in the corps of guard. So Pirmin Bo
nerd beguiled the time by antieipa- 1
ting this supremo indulgenbe, also by
thoughts of his village .steeple,- of his
aged care's ancient housekeeper,' of
the haystack whore he used to play at
hide and seek, and sundry.Otber recol
lootions: ' In this the minutes slipped
slowly by, and the two hours' guard
wero drawing to a close.
.All'at once he heard a slight noise.
He listened. "lt is the corporal com
ing to relieve the guard," he thought,
and pr,epared to utter the formal "qui
vivo." But the sound, which resem
bled that of human footsteps, was soon
followed by complete silence. "I could
not be mistaken 1" ho said to himself.
"Besides, my time must now be up."
Almost immediately he heard the
barking of a dog, who came running
forward in his direction. Oa recogni

nothing which threatened an attack:,,
he wondered what could be the mean
ing of this nocturnal visit. Before be
had time to consider the matter the
animal bad climbed the hill and was
jumping up his legs.
"It's you, Capuoin. Very good. You
got tired of waiting there; and lam
plred of standing here. The air is keen,
ana lam terribly sleepy. You should
have brought the corporal with you.
His watch must haVe stopped. Ito
ought to sell it for old iron, and buy a
now one."
Capuein'o answer WAS a frenzied
bark andserien of mad leapsarpund
his friend.
"1 understand," said "Armin ? smil
ing. "You're asking me to dance to
7arm myself. It's a pity you aro not
provided with the password and a
musket."
-PERSEVERE.-
A LEAP YEAR LAMENT
Capucin commenced to bark, run
ning right and left like a creature pos
sessed. Finding all these rnancevres
useless, he ran up to the soldier,pulled
him by the coat, and tried hard to pull
him away, renewing his efforts with so
much violence that he tore the sol
dier's uniform. Firmin, considering
this proof of tt.ffection more trouble
some than pleasant, lost his temper
and gave poor Capucin a kb*. The
deg, howling at finding himself so cru
elly- maltreated and miSunderstood, re
treated to a -few - paces distant;, but
soon returned, heedless of his friend's
unkind treatment:" Alf ho did now
wail to look forgivenesS:and lick the:
soldier's baud.
' "Be quiet, will you.? and take your
self off," said Firmin,' Im"rsbly, as he
threatened him'with' the butt of his
gun, to drive .him `away. Capucin,
finding he could do tio"good, unwilling
ly made up his mind to depart.. Re
arrived just in time to go on board
with the last detacbment,of his corps.
At foUr o'clock Firmin began to lose
patience. Discipline forbade,his quit
ting the' posl,', bht hunger, which drives
the Wolf odt•of. the wood,
.compelled,
him to forget the code militarie. Re
left his station and went to the guard
house, muttering to himself,' "If any
body deserves to be shot for this it is'
not I, but the corporal, who doesn't
know his 'business and'keeps a sentinel
on guard six hours at a time." ,
In the guard-house not a creature,
The only supposition • lie could form
was that the regiment - had 'gone to oc
cupy another part of the, island. Ho
shouldered' his gun' and i.valked off
across the country in Boarell of his re
giment. On the way be•foll in with a
farmer plowing a field.. "Can you tell
me," ho askeehim, "in what direction
the French have marched?" •
"They have gone - away," was the
startling reply. "They embarked et
two o'clock this morning, stepping
lightly and without uttering a word,
in consequence of an order received
front the Emperor."
"Gone away, leaving me behind I I
shall be reported as a deserter ! Con
found that corporal ; he has boon my
ruin. I understand what poor Capu
cin meant. It is not death I fear, so
much as the disgrace."
"Don't take on in that way," said
the fitrmer, in a consolatory tono of
voice. "Shrieking never set a broken
bone. Stay hero and make the best
back againroan prove that it was no
fault of yours."
"My good man, you do not know
the severity of our rules."
"They will not punish you for a
crime you have not committed. Mean
while, you cannot live on air. You
probably were brought up in the coun
try, and aro accustomed to do country
work ?"
''Certainly. I can plow, for in
atanco."
"The very thing for me. I can of
fer you good board and lodging, with
a small weekly payment - into tho bar
gain. It will bo the best thing you
can do, under the circumstances."
The soldier heaved a heavy sigh,
and slowly gazed all around the .hori
zon, to see whether any of the ships
wore still visible. Beholding nothing,
ho said at last, "I thankfully accept
your offer."
- "Good,", said tlie farmer, Peter Bux
om "Come and breakfast at once. We
will go on with - the plowing after

"You can b 's ring,him back with you

what I want to say to you now con

Firmin colored up to the eyes.
"unless I am much mistaken, you
and she are very good friends?!
Firmin uttered a few Unintelligible
words: • ,
"The neighbors oven nay you• are in
love with her." , •
"I assure you I never.uttered a word
which could lead her to suppose that

Firmin's eyes filled 'with tears- as he
recognized his old friend Capuein. The
dog, unable to master his impatience,
jumped into the sea and swam ashore.
