Resene of a Gallant Officer,
Major William B. Darlington, 18th
Pennsylvania cavalry, has arrived at hi
home in Chester county, Pennsylvania.
His case is rare and in'cresting. On the
sth day of May,
,during a severe cavalry
fight with Hampton's division,' (rebel ;'
when our forces. at the portion of the
line of battle held by General Wilson.
Major Darlington's regiment were crder
ed to retain their position, and keep the
enemy in check fur forty-five minutes of
the remainder of the tb,ee opposing
liampton had been ordered to fall ILipk.
They obeyed the order with a grace of
five minutes, and then, attempting to re
tire, found themselve; hemmed in in the
direction of their intended retreat by
another entire brigade of rebel cavaley
commanded by Rosser. They proceed
ed to cut their way through, and, after
several charges and counter charges, the

tl.cir purpose.
itt the first charge Major Darlington
r teeivwl a wound which shattered h's
right leg. Although the subsequent
charges by both parties were made
directly over his body, as he lay upon
the field, the Major received no other in
jury. He laid on the battle•fiehl three
days, awl was then picked up by the
rebels, taken to Hampton's quarters, and
his 'fez amputated at the hip by Hemp
tou's chief surge in. The amputation
was well p donne 1, and he received as
good treatment as the limited resources
.of the rebels would p Inuit at the hands
of the surgeon, Dr. Taylor, of South
Carolina, and of General Hampton. lle
was gonreyed to a farm house in Spott
eylvania county, about three miles from
the arc-a or the etwagetnent in which he
r •veived his wound, arid there remained
three weeks. During Ueneral Sheridan's
r t:d he was found, placed in an anibu
lane::, and coveyed with the column fur

which place be left on Monday. While
with General Sheridan's command every
practicable attention was given him by
the General and offienrs. and every effort
made to secure suitable food and other
comforts to recruit his strength. Ile
had been officially reported as killed, and,
until despatches were telegraphed to his
friends, they had no other news of his
fate.
Can't Understand It
A. war•beaten veteran of Longstrect's
oorps, made a funny remark to a friend
of mine, a prominent politician, who con
versed with him while cooling in from
the front. Said he "I do not understand
all this; Lee has won a big victory over
Grant on the Rapidan, and told us so,
and that night we retreated. Then he
won another in the Wilderness, and told
us so, and we retreated to Spottsylvania.
Then he won another tre-mco-j us victory,
and I got tuk prisoner ; but 1 reckon he
has retreated agial. Now, when we used
to lick them, the Yanks fell back and
claimed a. victory, and we understood it.
Now Lee claims victories and keeps a
fallin' back, and I can't 'understad it."
The Long and Lingering Farewell.
The soldier threw his arms around the
lady and gave her a soldier's kiss.
I listened for the report; but the lips
refused to part. Boconds appe4red hours.
The eye would turn crow the scene and
then back again, expecting to find the
looked for finale. No, no! There they
stood clinging like drowning ones, mutt -
ally drinking their cup of silence in bit
terness,
Their arms relaxed, their lips separa
ted, but still they stood; site looking in
to his largo brown oyes, and lie in turn
would fathom her soul through its tear
ful windows.
They heeded not the crowd around
They were emphatically alone.
GEM
_sin the strong arm pressed her to his
r heart, and then another of those
I..ng. long, soldier kie4es which stop on
ly to get a deeper inspiration.
The car bell .ummoned him to the
train and the hattle-field, and her to a
widely's home.
The Chicago ladies a few days ago at
tir,d themselves in their nicest silks.
N.-zaryed their inci.4t expensive sirvivis
around thorn, adorned themselves with
their gaudiest ribbons and richn.st laces,
-a.l hell a uteeting to talk u%er tho econ
omical covenant movement.
In one of the llospitats lately, when
the inmates learned of the re-nomination
of Lincoln, a wounded soldier held up a
limb amputated at the knee and averred
with a ekuckle indicating his own appre
ciation of his•jukc:--"I will stump Ohio
for Old Abe."
Railroad Rcomarase.
The travelei:who - hai - bein : So rerligsc
tunate as to sit beside an noltvown beauty
in a railroad carriage, and had his con-
versational powers brought into play by
her spirit of soeistbility, can comprehend
the bliss ofa good-looking bachelor, whose
car adventure we are about to relate. •
This worthy gentleman was a passen
ger on the Central Railroad on Monday
ltit,and happened to he in a car that was
pretty well Atoclod with humanity. He
had managed to retaiu a seat from the
commencement of the,,journey, until the
train reached a stopping-place, where a
freih supply of passengers entered it,
when he gallantly surrendered it to an
old lady, and made up his mind to stand
awhile.
Now it happened that a young and
stylish-looking lady noticed the act, and
so pleased was she to sec an old woman
treated politely, that she at once rcm tved
;ler carpet bag from the .end of the seat
-he occupied. aud int.-itcri the gentleman
to take its place. Nothing loth, our hero
accepted the modest invitation, and was
soon engaged in a friendly conversation
with the belle of the train. They OW
, tell in lively style until the"shadesolnight
were falling fast," when the lady's utter
ance grew slower, then indistinct, and
then altogether ceased, for she was asleep.
Not being disposed to follow her ex
ample, the gentleman amused himself by
watching his fellow-passengers, and was
reminded of his companion's presence by
her head touching his shoulder. 31or
pliettA had I.cr completely in his fo!ds, and
by a series of graceful nods, Ole, uncon
s:tiously sought the support or her railroad
acquaintanCe.
The bachelor was delighted at the first
gentle touch, but his pleasure, when, in
the abandonment of sleep, luir form nestled
down until its whole weight bore down
entirely upon hint, baffles description.—
The better to support his lovely burden,
he placee his arm around her waist, and
then gave himself up to tho deliruat of
the, incipient.
A (ler passing the next station, a gen
tleman entered the ear containing the per
sons above referred to, and commenced
exa mining. the face of each occupant, as
though he was in search of some friend.
In the darkness of the hour, lie passed
the sleeper and her suppurter without
noticing them, and it was only when he
turned to retrace his steps that the scene
attracted his attention, In a moment the
shade of anxiety 411 his features was suc
ceeded by a frown ; and he stepped quickly
to the side of the fair sleeper.
As his hand descended heavily upon
her shoulder, she started, opened her
eyes, sprang to her feet, "blushing celes
tial rosy red." Mime the bachelor could
speak, the new-comer politely informed
him that he could take care of his own
wife, if he had no objections, and straight
way led the lady to another seat.
The explanation that ensued unfolded
the fact that the lady had been absent on
a visit for some time,and was then return
ing to the faithful husband, whose im
patience led him to meet her half-way.
Eager to meet her, he had entered the
car only to find her in the arms of a stran
ger ! Of course the stranger told how
it happened ; but the frown did not pass
away from the brow of the husband until
they left the car. Ladies should be care
ful how they fall asleep on the wrong vest
pattern.
A Fa Remarks by gosh Filings
Moral swashuns eansists in asking a
man to du what he ought to du without

he refuses to do it.

A TOUGH STORY.—The Mifflinburg,
(Pa.) Telegroph, Kays that last week, dur
ing a thunder storm, the lightning struck
a tree standing over a mine, near Miffl'n
burg, and passed down the trunk of the
tree to the ground, and through a hole
into the mine, where it ran down a man's
hack and tore a heel off one of his shoes.
He was stunned, and his hack was burnt
same. Ito walked to his home without
assistance and He are informed is doing
well.
The rebels stole the buttons off from
Gen. Seymour's coat while he was being
taken from the Wilderness to Macon. Ga.,
and the Richmond papers endeavor to
conceal the mean theft by raying that
they full off:
To make a pretty girl:a cheeks red, pay
her a sweet compliment. To redden those
or an impudent man, slap them.
