A FUGITIVE’S tTIJUGEANCB, . »r iucrk-vEAT WAMuntßai. “Look at roe !" The speaker threw up bis brawny arms, in the broad sunlight'of thedajvand a grim smile passed over his features. He stood amid a few scores of (be United States soldiers, oh the north bank of the Potomac, where he had just landed, after swimming a river atths close of a running fight, with a dozen of niorp Virginia dragoons. One of his eyes had been closed by a heavy blow across hfis forehead wiih-the butt of a pistol, and his massive ’chest' was bleeding' where a bullet had ploughed along the skin, glancing from his ribs, - , . “Yes," he repeated ; to the brave men who bad been wateßfng bis escape, “look at me I" Do I appear to'-you rt traitor, a coward ora vidian? AU these names have been bestowed upon me because I wnuld not enlist among traitors.— Look there!" lie pointed to the shores of a little creek ex tending from the Potomac a tnile or two in; the “saered serif,’' to a range of-low huildlngs.from 1 which a dull smoke was issuing. “There wee .my home,” he continued, heat ing his breast "iti awild burst of grief. “There my w ife was stretched dead bn the three! o'd by a bullet intended for me; there ray only boy has been shot by the minions of_J>etoher. For more than a hundred years my ancestors and family hsv* dwelt in peace upon that spot, end there does not lire the man, end never has,he<n seen the roan, who can say that £he Boyds bare .wronged or defrauded him in any way or man ner. And now see what these devils have done f” Thn strong man’s head sank forward upon his breast, and he sobbed aloud with a grief terrible to witness.. ‘•Do not mourn bo, Mr. Boyd,” said Captain. Hart, in &• kindly tone, while ninny nn eye moisteried among the observers and listeners “Yon have escaped with your life—you are fa miliar with the country in your vicinity—know who your oppressors are, and can command a sufficient.number of brave men hers to take ample vengeance. • The fugitive grasped the Captain’s band cho king down his sobs, ‘•Yes,, vengeance is the word!” ho exclaimed, •hoskiiy—*’l #iU live fur.revehge." . lie remained motionless, watching the move ments of the Virginia troops across the river as they retreated in the direction of the fogitive patriot's burning homestead. With the aid of a field te’eseope, handed him by Captain Hart, he watched them till they had disappeared be hind some trees shading the road which wound along the shores of the creek. “Do yon wish to' return -instantly," asked Captain Hurt, "at the head of soma of our brave fellows ?” “Not now, thank yon. I would-not care for a plan of vengeance which should sacrifice any of yOur men. I must have time to think.” “And to have your wound attended to,” re joined the Captain. “You narrowly escaped the wretches. I was never more agonized 1 in my life "than in watching yonr running fight, und yourswim, amid their' bullets, and would have given ten years of my life for a good field piece. Unhappily, all of our troops on the Potomac have been short of batteries, and that is why I could not cover your flight any bet ter.” : Thug saying, Captain Hart conducted the fu gitive to his tent, and called in the surgeon to attend to his injuries, and providerefreahments. Mr Boyd was now able to master his emotion, but no one but the 'Judge of all hearts knew what bitter sorrow raged in his breast. To lose his beloved wife and only son at one blow,.was indeed a terrible bereavement. During all the remainder of the day the fu gitive remained in the Captain’s tent, waiting fur the night to come to lend her mantle to aid the plan of vengeance he had formed. When nil was still in the Union camp, save the watch ful platoon.of picked men, with Captain Hart and Mr. B«yd at their bend, si lently descended to the bank, and- crossed the river in a-boat which was in waiting, not a sound louder than the ripling of the current being heard until a landing was effected on the Virginia short. Here a brief halt wnsothted. ‘•Jv’g lucky that ths moon is obscured ut'this moment,” whispered Mr. Boyd. “I do-not be lieve our movements have been teen, although a sentry or two are probably oh the watch here about. There is a little dell up here, a hun dred’rode or so distant, where' yoo can remain ooeitiledin safety, While I reconnoitre a little, seeking where they are encamped or quar tered." Be led the way to’ the spot mentioned, the entire bd3y.moved as noiselessly ns possible— and then Mr. Boyd arranged a signal with Captain Hart,- and set out on bis scout. He; Was gone -longer than he especied—nearly two, seemed an age to the : impatient soldiers'; hut he ■finally returned, With -Bup presifd gratiScation in bis tones.tmdan eager BtepJ- • ’ • -'lhave found thfro," he exclaimed aiohd.— “They are quartered at the Widuw’Crosby’s farm,, pot a quarter of a mile from my late bcnw." , i j ... . ...... • ’The, particulars of the.assault was arranged, the main point bieiricr soldiers should leave Mr. Bojd fo deal l with the enemy untilho should demand assistance,- he havingeipressed tbc opiniun that he could cut them, off one by ohe,jtrtheir sleep. , , , " “1 do not want-them 'to whke'tbis side of hell,* he said; with a sternness, ns the frrit Of hie murdered vrifeseemed to appear before hie exouedvision, ; “Death to,every -one of them !

TheTugitive patriot'bounded away like-an' arriiw in the,direction of the challenge/ drnw 'Pg aihepvy-kiiife frum his bosom. A mothent of .anxious suspense followed; pope q single groan wile heard, and then all was still.

Wait still another moment, until you bear my signals." And again he was £on*- ; Captain Hartabd'his men remained perfectly motionless a‘few moments, listening-fur any euond that torght.indicate the movement of the avehger. A light wag soon seen Bickering in the direction whore the house occupied by the troopers was supposed to ■be situated, and the next instant a huge flame shot suddenly Into the sky, while the signal of Mr. Boyd was heard.- . . j - “Take them, lioys, on the wing as they come out Of "the house*,” commanded. Captain flnrt, as the building tjfaa brought in .bold relief to their view by flames from the hug? pile of 'brushwood gathered in the neighboring swamp for euommer fuej, and which the avenger had set on fire. “Thjoife, now is your time! Fire I” A half ft dozen troopers fell dead at the dis charge followingjthe command, iis they rushed out from the piazza in the full glarge of the flames, Mr. Bnyd re-appenred from the house, falling upon the two survivors,' and stretching them both dead on the ground with a few rapid blows. i ' “The wdrk is accomplished,” he exclaimed; as the soldiers. adVupcea towards him. “The last of them is here—the very fellow,'" he adr ded, glancing at the dead man, who shot thy wife. We ore terribly avenged.” A window in the cottage was raised at this juncture, arid'ati elderly lady, the Widow Cros by looked forth upon the scene; • “.You have shocked me sufficiently, you'wick ed men*,” she-said In a mild tone of satisfaction, “und I trust‘ho jdisagreeable "sight will-meet ray eyes in'the htohning.” ■ , Captain Hart and Mr. Boyd understood her, and at once proceeded to remove the Bodies of the troopers to the shore of the erect, where they were immediately buried. All traces of bloodshed were removed from the premises, ns far as possible, hnid, the widow was left to re pose. “I have now squared accounts with them,” observed Mr, Boy|i, “and will commence a reg ular service fur the War, Captain, in your ranks to-morrow. The remainder of the night I will pass at the ruins of my late home, looking af ter my dead.” He shook the hand of the Captain, and re tired, amid the murmurs of from the men, soon being lost to .their view as-.they retreated to the spot where they had crossed the river, Ud wna .not long in reaching the still smouldering liiins of his house and out buildings, where lie instituted a search for the remains of his wife and sun, but in vain, lie wits quite in despair, and was ’ mourning them as only a father can mourn his loved ones, when a form was seen approaching cautiously through the gloom. “TVhJi is there?” the unknown soun.detnanded. . j ■‘William-Boyd.” Tbo man uttered a cry of surprise and de light, and drew near, making himself known. Jle was an old .frifnd and neighbor, and had taken care of .Mr. Boyd’s dead, bearing their bodies to his o.wn Souse, where they then were.. The avenger lisierifd to these announcements, and soon became cjtlm. > ‘rl can never be a man again," he said, ;‘bnt it is some satiefuciion to know that they are avenged,” And he; recounted; ibe tragedy -of the night to bis listener's great joy. “Come,” guid tb^-.neighhor, at last, “we had better bury to-night, for you must be gway from here.be|hre daylight." Hr. Boyd accompanied the kind-hearted and sympathizing neighbor to his house. We heed not dwell upon the'lonely burial that followed. The mother and sop, each the pride of the oth er, and of lie bereaved father and husband, i were, buried in one igrave, rudely made by those two Stern-faced men, beneath the dim light of the waning moon. ■ At last the sad offices were finished, and thetato men turned away. “I have now nothing to do hut to devote my life to the service. county,” said Bpyd.**- “Hencef'tth I shuH do what I can to prevent tbe dccead ints of more fortunate families than mino from suffering these miseries.” “And ! will .Jain jyou” said tus coropaniori, quickly. “There 1* t»o safety here. I will re- more my family to Pennsylvania, forthwith, and we will fight together 1” The next’day these resolves were carried bnt, the Virginia patriot joining Mr. Boyd at Cap tain Haft’s camp; and the brave men are now rendering important services in the column of General McClellan. I Two Celebrated Ides. The last summary of foreign news contains the brief announcement of the death of Prince Windisohgrffitz—or the j Prince Alfred Von WindiscK Gr®ti—the celebrated Austrian Gen era), and Count Charles Robert fie Nesselrode, the great Russian statesman. Neither of them can be mourned iothia country, but each has been a prominent actor id the, field of'Europe an hwtijry. Winqipchgrtstz was a descendant, on the materniil side, of "Wallenstein, and was born at Brussels; May 11th,1787, so that he was sev erity five years of age. He was a soldier ail -his life, and nothing-else, fur be has never been .a. statesman, tior has he shown anything like statesmanlike qualities. He was. proud of bis Tin.cagp, an aristocrat, in every fibre, a rigid disciplinarian, and a hearty detester Of every thing that acknowledged anything like popular rights. . He entered :tbe army in 1804,-distin guished hiniself at the battle of LeipeigrNoy .es, and. JPere-ohampennise, In 1826 he was made a Major General ana in 1833 General of Division.' He is well remembered for the part he ; took t iri the events of 1848-9, When the Austeqin Empire iftjmoat. gave wajt before the rising of; the people in all [the provinces. Jel laclich; Jhad failed to suppress the Hungarian insurrection ; so Wjndisehgrtet* took the chief command of' the army j fmniCarded Prague, and Vienrinr and estftblishcd a reign' hf terror ''wherever' he could place rtti 1 army. Then he •nifroh'ed in the beginning of 1849. from Vienna to Pesth,!^-,,defeated, the Hungarians; at Mohr, ftpd, expected to repress • re volution every where. if Rut the Hungarians rallied and he was, compelled to retire. lie'lost caste with the Guvertudent and was superceded in his com mand. Hor has he sines been in any impor tant position, though he has retained the rank of Field Marshal, conferred on brut in 1848, and con)mander-in-cliief of nil the Austrian troops outside uf Italy, He will be 'remem bered for his cruelties, his bombardments uf cities and towns, his murder uf Robert Blum, and many other atrocities. He has died jdat ut the moment when reforms of a most liberal kind are: being established in Austria,' his death being coincident with that of the abso lutism of which he has always been the most striking type. Windiseb-Grtßiz was married in 1817 to the Princeai Eleonora, of Schwartz enburg, by whom be hud several sons and daughters,.his oldest son being Prince Alfred, born in 1819. ' Count Ne-selrods was born December 14th, 1780; at Lisbon, where his father was the Rus sian nuibnssadur.-T—llis family was of noble Saxon origin. He began life os a soldier, hut abandoned the. career of arms for that of di plomacy in 1802. In JSO7, he was made am bassador to Paris, where he rendered his Gov ernment Signal service by revealling the secret preparations for war . made by the Etdperor Napoleon. Going home he was attached to the Chancellorship of States -and -the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.—Through the two r-igns of Alexander I. and Nicholas be conducted the foreign nffairsiif Russia with eminent'ability, and there is hot nn important event in the his tory of his country, during that period, with which his name is not associated. From 1813 to.lSSS.hei was Chancellor of Slate and Minis ter of-Foreign Affairs. On the-accession of Alcxahderj 11., he resigned the latter portfolio, and .has retained only the office of-Chancellor of State. »lllis German origin, made him sym pathize with the German parly in Russia a gainst which was pitted the reactionary party of Old Russia, of which Prince’ Mentschikuff is a permanent Wader. Nesselrode has favored reforms, did what ho could tonvoid the war of 1354—5, and was hiffuential in bringing about the Congress of Paris by which peace was es tablished. ; Ills great age—over eighty-two— has prevented him from taking an active part in public affairs recently ; but he'will always be remembered as one of the ablest statesmen of Europe, and one of the most valuable offi cers of the Russian Government.— BulUten. “Secesh, Massa. all Secesh.”—A newspa per correspondent visiting Alexandria, was pi loted through the town by a-negro, with whom .the following conversation occurred; , “How db the white folks stand here, uncle,— Cnion or sCcesh?” “Secesh, jnassa, ail secesh.” • “You doh’t say!

Why, gentlemen, I toiled, in that department as no man ever toiled before'; I have told you that in my younger years I worked fur twenty hours ogtof twenty-four for successive (booths; but that labor was nothing in comparison with the overpowering toil which I underwent at Washington. To say nothing of the extraordinary necessities o{T the depart ment, arising from an unforseen nnd threaten ing national emergency, the doors of my pri vate dwelling, were besieged, from daylight to tlie latest hourtof the night. The department was surrounded on all hands and | aboil hour*. Certain members of Congress, Who figured* the vote of censure, wire- ever besieging my doors, and often.patiently waiting for honra-ty catch a part of the drippings from the War De partment .. - “ Meanwhile! managed the delicate and try* trig affairs of my eitootiob-#« wisely as -I Jcn'ei* buw.

' Adjutant General deserted. The Quartermas ter General ran off. -The Commissary General was upon bis de.ith-bed. More than half the clerks were disloyal. I remember that upon one occasion General Scott came to me op par rently iVgreat mental tribulation. Said be, ‘f have spent the most misemble day of my life; . a friend of my boyhood has just told me I ant disgracing myself by staying here and serving this fragment of the government/in place of going to Virginia and serving under the banned of my native State; and I pin pained to death.’ But the old hero was patriotic, loyal and wits enough to say that bis -friend was wrongs and be was right hr remaining where he was.” The following is Mr. Cameron’s explantion if the cnmsiKGS Amia. “ You all remember, gentlemen, the day = of tbe President's proclamation, calling upon th< people of Pennsylvania (because the demand was made upon you liere in common with other States) fur troupe to defend the national capital. My son happening. t<> be inWaahington, I soot him thither with the utmost despatch, and. ashed him to appeal to every man be met in this .town and through tbe country, to send down every soldier who would comet Within three days after the issuing of the proclama tion, four hundred and eighty troops from Pennsylvania arrived .in Washington. They were the first to inspire the Government with hope and courage to contend with the awful crisis then impending. They came thtrs with* 'out arms arid were furnished from the arsenal at that place. Directly after this—within two or three days—three or four regiments were assembled at Cuckeysrille, Maryland, by - ray order. At tbe same time a number of bridges on the Philadelphia and Baltimore, Railroad) via Wilmington, were burned or destroyed. It was at this time that tbe mob in Baltimore murdered our unarmed soldiers in her streets on their way to-the defence of the capital, and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad refused to carry our troops. At.that time, when the loy alty of nearly all the inhabitants was doubted, Mr. Seward, the Secretary of State, in compa ny with the Secretary of the Treasury, called upon me and said ‘ we must have somebody in New York to assist the public officers there in collecting and forwarding troops,’ asking, me to name any individual whom I considered competent fur that purpose. I was acquainted with but a few people in New York, but after a, few moment’s reflection I recollected Mr. Cummings, with whom 1 bad an intimacy when ho was a citiien of this State. The .two gen tlemen then informed me that they had appoint ed Ur. Cisco, of the Sub-Treasury- 'General Dtx, now in the army j Mr. Opdyke, the pres ent Mayor of tbe city of New York, and as I ba-e stated, requested me to name -some other gentlemen. 1 gave the name of Mr. Cummings, and associated, with it that of Governor Mor gan, of the State of New York." i Hero is a bit of - - PRIVATE BISTORT. “ Now, gentlemen, in regard- to 1 the Con gressional 'Committee of Investigation, of which the country has heard so much, I have reason to-belicve that the .original -intention .pf its appointment was to control the War Depart went and place money in the' pocket* of its members.
