A ITORP OP THE BATTLE iTEI.D.
1 A French veteran, with one arm, was seat
ed before the door of his neat cottage on a
pleasant ovouiug in July.
Ho was surrounded by several village lads,
who with one vice entreated him to com
mence his promised story. The old man took
his pipe from his mouth, wiped his lips with
the back of his reinainiug hand, and began j
■ thus: ■
In my time, boys, Frenchman would have
scorned to tight with Frenchmen in the
streets ns they do now. No, no; when wo
fought it was for the glory of Franco, and
against her enemies; My story begins with
the 9th of November, 1812, a short time after
the battles of AYiazina.
AVo were boating a retreat, not before the
Ilussmns, for they kept a respectable distance
from our cantonments, bat before the bitiilg
cold of their detestable country, more terri
ble to us than the Kussians, Austrians and
Bavarians all put together. For the last few
days our officers hud been tolling us Jhat wo
were -approaching Smdlenska, where We
would bo certain of finding food, fire and
shoes ; but in the meantime wo were perish
ing in the ice, and perpetually harrassed by
bauds of Cossack riders.
Wo had marched about six hours without
pausing to lake breath, for wo knew repose
was certain death. A bitter wind hurled
snow flakes in our faces, and now and then
wo stumbled over the corpses of our frozen
comrades. No singing or talking 1 liven the
grumblers ceased, to complain, dud that was
a had sign.
.1 walked behind my captain; ho was a
short man, strongly built, rugged and severe,
but brave aud true as his own sword blade.
IV e called him Captain Positive, for when he
oueo said a thing, so it was—no appeal : he
never changed his mind, lie had been
wounded at Wiazina, aud his usually red face
was now quite pale, while the pieces of, an
oid’whito handkerchief which ho:hud wrapped
■around, his leg were soaked with blood/ I
saw.him first move slowly, then stagger like
a drunken man, and at last he foil down liko
a solid block'. , v
, Fiirbleu 1 Captain,” said I, bending over
■ bim, “you,can’t lie there.” ,
You see that.l can, because* I do,” re
plied lie, pointing to his limbs.
“ Captain,”- said I, “you mustn’t die
nged, to plaqe him On his feet. He leaned on |
thus,” and raising him in my arms I man
mo and tried to walk, but in vain be fell
once, more, dragging mo with hifn. .
“ John," said he, “ tis all over how. Just
leave 'me boro and join your column as
quickly as you can.- One . word before you
go. At 'Vereppe, near Grenoble, lives a
good woman, eighty four years old, my—
■mother. Go to her, embrace her, and toll
her that—-that—tell'her what you- like, but
give her this purge and my cross. That’s
■ alii’.'
“ Is that all, Captain ?”
“1 said so. . Good hyo ; and haste;”
Boys,, I don’t know it was, but I felt two
- tears freezing on my checks'.
“No Captain," cried I, "I won’t leave
you—either, you shall come with mo, or I
Will stay with you.
“ I forbid you staying."'
“ Captain, you might as well forbid a wo
man’s talking.” ,
“ If I escape I will-punish you severely.”
■ “ You may. place mo under arrest then,
but just now you must let nie doa»l please.”
“ You are an insolent fellow.”
ery likely, Captain, bat you must como
with me.”
;■ -Ho. bit his lips with anger, but said no
more. I raised him and placed his body
across _my shoulder like a sack.' You may
easily imagine thatwhilebearing such a bur
den I could not move as fist as mv comrades.
• Indeed, I soon lost sight of their columns,
and eon Id perceive nothing but tho white, si
lent plain around me;
I; moved oh and ! presently, there : ap
, poured a band of- .Gosssucks gailopping to
ward mo, their lances in rest and shouting
their fiendish war cry.
The captain was by this tune in a state of
total unconsciousness, I. resolved, cost what
it might, and not to abandon him.
I laid him on tlio ground, covered with
snow,'and then crept :nnder. a heap of my
-dead comrades,' haying, however, my eyes at
. liberty., -&oon the Cossacks readied us and
began' striking their lances 'right and left,
while the horse trampled the bodies.'
, Presently one of these rude-beasts placed
his foot my.left arm and crushed it to pieces.
Boys, I did not say a word j I did not move,
sava to thrust my right hand into iny mouth
to keep down the cry of torture, and’in a few
minutes the Cossacks disappeared.
When the last of them had ridden, off, 1
crept out and.managed to disinter the cap
tain. He showed few signs of life ; never
theless I contrived witlyone hand to drug him
toward a rock which offered a sort of shelter,
and then, lay down next to him, vrrappinn
my capote around him. • °
Night.was closing in, and tho snow-continu
fd to full. The last of the rearguard had
l.mg disappeared, and the only sounds that
broke tho stillness wore the whistling of dis
tant 'bullets and the nearer howling of. the I
wolves,- which were devouring, the dead]
bodies,
- God knows what things wo wore passing
in. my bosom-that,night, which’l thought
was',my,last on'earth. But-1 remembered
the prayer my mother had taught'me long
ago, when I was a child by her side, and
kneeling down I said it fervently.
Boys, it did mo good, and always remem
ber, that sincere prayer will do you good,
too. '
I felt wonderfully calm when I resumed
my place, by tlio captain. But time'passed
on, and I was becoming; quite bouumed,
when I saw a. party of French officers up.
• preaching. Before I had time to address
them, the. formust, a lo.w-sized maa, dressed
in fur pelliese, stepped toward me saying :
“ What are you doing here ? Why,did you
(day behind your regiment?”
" For two good reasons,” said I, pointing
first to the captain and thou to my bleeding
arm.
“ The man speaks the truth, sir,” said one
of the followers. “I saw him marching be
hind the column carrying the officer on his
back.”
The Emperor—for,■•boys, it was ho—gave
mo one of those looks which only himself or
an Alpine Eagle could give, and said,:
11 'Tie well ; you have done well."
Then opening his pellisse. he took the
cross which decorated his inside coat and
gave it to me. -
“ Dovonst," said the Emperor, addressing
the gentlemen who had spoken, “cause the
man and captain to bo placed in the ammu
nition wagon. Adieu 1” and waving his hand
toward me he passed on.
Itefe the veteran paused and resumed his
pipe. ..

When he recovered ho-placed me md. tm
.rest for fifteen days L Z
broach of discipline. The circumstance
readied Aapoleon’s ears, and, lau'gbing hear
tily, he not only released mo, but promoted
me to be a sergeant. As to the decoration,
here is the ribbon, boys. I wear that in my
button hole, but the cross near mv heart.
And unbutning his coat, the, veteran
showed bis young friends the precious relic,
enveloped in a little bund suspended around
hia nook.
