And Lccy looked dreamily liappy that

raised her eye's to the mirror before which
they were turning from one side to the oilier
at i!' she were but h moving wax figure,
placed (here f.i rhow the advantage tho

A light rap is heard at the door.
"This is Kd .vatd let him come in," enid
Lucy, the lightest preceptilile flash mount
ing her cheeks at the well known Round.
Ohl ri.', no!-' chimed half ft dozen voices
"not till this loop of ribt-on is fastened and

the havoc the sfiibi-ifpt but still handsome
captain was making of the bridal tirery of
their pet I.ucy.
"I beg pardon, ladies, but I couldn't re
sist the temptation," said l-Aivard ; "there
Lucy, shake yourself, and you'll bo just ns
new. Who shall say the beauty of a bird is
not enhanced by ruffling its plumage S"
Just nt this moment Mrs. Stonington en
tered to say that "the guests had all arrived
and that the minister was getting impn-tk-nt,"
"Xot more so than myself," said Edward,
resigning his bride elect lo her uncle, who
was to giyc her away.
While the ceremony was being performed
ft rilvnt prayer goes up lrom the heart of the
widow and tears drop thick and fart upon
her furrowed cheeks, for her homo will now
be desolate indeed ; nnd when at last the
two are made one the mother presses her
daughter to her bosom now hers no more
forever one, hmy moaning sob, w hich she
tries to repress, scapes her, and she feels
that the light has gone out from the hearth
stone when the carriage containing the new
ly married couple rolled nwuy from the
door.
A month had passed. Captain Hurnett's
absence having expired, lib joins his regi
ment taking his young Initio with him
mu:;h against his better judgment to that
desolate portion ot Kssteru Virginia which
was soon al ter the scene of a terrible battle.
Hut though he presented cainpiifo and
inarches in their dreariest aspect to her, her
reply was :
"Where thou goest I will go.' Had I
thought you would refuse to let tne bear
you company in your perils, I would not
have 'married you."
"Lucy dearest, how can a delicato form
like yours bear the tedious marches which
many a hardy soldier sinks under i and then
to subsist for weeks on tho hard, dry, often
times repulsive food what a change from
the delicacies you havo been nurtured on."
"Let mo hut try, l.dwan: ; l am strong
and brave and healthy, and will cheerfully
bear all the privations you mention, nay,
more so I may bo you companion.
And thus it was that tho bravo captain
yielded to his young wife's entreaties.
The bride was for some time charmed
with tho novelty of camp-lilo, nu I while
listening to the stirring beat of thu drum, as
tho dilferent companies wont through their
drills, bhe almost wished here!f a "brave
soldier boy." io prouder eight had her
eyes over witnessed limit that of her gallant
husband us, at thu head of his bravo band
of cavalry, he set out for tho battle Held.
"And 1 ma to bo left behind t" she askod
as Kdward sprang from his Baddle and en
tered tho tent lo give her a parting kisi.. '
"Certainly dearest. What could we do
with a woman oil the hnttle-tield ?"
"1 feel as if! could light, tuU Edward.
Tray let mo accompany you."
'Xot for the wide world can I consent.
Some ill would moat assuredly befall you ;
and you would be, at least,- but a stumbling
block iu our way. I have given Stantim
the charge of all'drs here, and until I return
or you hear from ino, follow implicitly his
directioua. Should I lull, (lour Lucy," aud
his voice trembled slightly, "go buck to your
mother without delay."
Lucv's eve were dim with tears, but sho
soon wiped them away to watch the little
band which lier uusimuu leu as mey gallop
ed acroB the wide plain.
i'lre bivtllo-lKld was uot tar distant, and
soon bhe board the roar of artillery. The
loud booming ol cauaou ami the uendisii
hissing of the shells-, that sped fiercer than
thunderbolts through the air set her nearly,
frantic. ' '
"Btanton 1" she cried, going to the door,
where he was busy putting thiugs iu march
lug order.
"Is there a horse here t".
"Yes, ma'am, a couple."
- "Then saddle the swiftest for me. I mi)
going out for a ride.
"But ina'am. tha cantala mid"
"No matter t hat the captain said, I must
have the Uorsa at once."
"I have ne lady's saidls."'
SATURDAY MORNING, MAY 27,
"No matter; a saddle of tiny kind will
do." -.
"nut, madam rl'
Stamping her little foot.
"Look yonder I" And she pointed lo the
northeast. "A heavy rebel force is coming
unexpectedly,' upon our troops. Willi n
swift horse I can reach my husband's column
nnd give the alarm in that time to circum
vent them. Kow do my biddiug at once!''
Slanton in fear find wonder obeyed ; and
when ho led forth tho high mettled steed
Lncy appeared in a regular military suit of
her husband's with her curls so nicely stow
ed away beneath the close fitting cap that
the iiinn in wuiting could scarcely believe
tho boyish looking soldier before bin'., was
no other than the captain's w ile.
"bliall I not accompany you, madam, he
asked us she spring lightly into the saddle,
"I want no retainers, KtanToni stay where
you are, and follow the Captain's orders."
Lucy did not wait for him to linitdi the
sentence, but putting spurs to her steed,
toot; tne route lier liusimnd lind luuen, am
j was afler an hours' fatiguing ride in full
view of the battle. She paused but a lew

the very ground to tremble beneath her feet,

the ground -impatient to proceed, hue gave
him the relr., for she saw where the dense
volume of smoke was slowly rising, the form
ofKdwaicl. At nil events it was a cavalry
company, and she dashed boldly forward.
-Senrly deafened by the roar of artillery
nnd stilled by the smoke, she still kept on,
until having -reached Kilpattiek's iliviiun,
she was dismounted by thu stumbling of
her hotso.
"Will you put me toCopLIiurtnclt'scnm
pnny she nsked.
To the left replied the soldier addressed,
but it is impossible for you to reach him.
. "1 must see him or die it", thu attempt,"
she cried. .
And she did sec him, lending on his brave
but thinned Company into the conflict.
She called him once, twice, thrice ere he
heeded her, nnd then gave htr but a parsing
glance.
"Thu enemy arc coming in large force,
lrom the west. Mako haste and they may
be taken iu the gorgu tarry Hi! they reach
the brow of the hill ami the day ia lost tu
joti."
"He did iwt recognize me nnd it is well.
It might have deterred him from going,"
she sail1, to her.-elf yet ali. sensation crept
over her when she looked upon the wotiecl
ed the dead and dying who lay in musci
about her; she thought she heard a groan
slvo Iblcned yes she was not nii.-takeu; half
buried among the slain was n form laii.iliar
to her. Sho removed as well as she was
able, the weight that oppressed him, and
asked if he was hurt much.
The soldier addressed turned YM face to
ward her, with a groan saying with ti groan

No man was never more abused than Mr.
Lincoln. Ho was ridiculed as an "ope," a
"babcon," a "filthy jester" and of course,
uncultivated man, and denounced as a "ty
rant," a "king," a "usurper," tho enemy of
his country mid tho subverter of its Consti
tution. In England he was laughed nt,
jeered at, hooted nt, and sneered at, with
eery possible variation in the teima em
ployed, and scarcely one out of tho promi
nent presses of tho nation could bring itself
to tho task of speaking of him even in de
cent language.
Hut Mr. Lincoln paid no heed to all this.
He pursued the even tenor of his way, ani
mated by a lofty singleness of purpose, aud
an honesty that never swerved a hair's
breadth from tho truo line. Distegnrdbig
ell assaults upon his good name, aud all
provocations from abroad and at homo to
ehmg-j his pvlicy, he first cV.Uld in his own
mind what w;u right, and then adhcied to
it with the sternest determination.
Aud behold tho result! After vctrs of
systematic di traction his bitterest d'el'ameti
are compelled to do homage to the spotless
purity of his life, to tho exalted homesty
that luf.rked his pp. bin 'careers to the lolly
patriotism that animated his every publio
net, and to admit that he belonged to tha
highest order of statesmen. Even the Eng
lish papers r-.dmit all this, and testify to tho
fact that Europe was all nleg relying tii'ep.
