310 W I ESCAPED.
A SOLDIER.'§ STORY
With some twenty men_under my command, I
was scouting in one of the Southern States,
when-we were suddenly fired upon from an
ambuscade, and two of our party mortally
wounded.. The nest moment we saw ourselves
surrounded by at least three times our number
and heard a dozen voices shout:
‘,‘Surrende'.l! or you are dead men !"
Resistance would have been more than folly,
as I saw at, a glance, and I at once ordered the
men to throw down their arms and 'dismount,
which they did; Our horses were led away from
us, and our arms taken possession of; and. then
the whole party of rebels, crowded around us,
in a tumultous manner, cursing and threatening
us - with massacre.
"We have a right to expect the common usage
of war!" .I said to the leader, a savage arid
brutal-looking fellow.
*"And get what we choose to give You!
ftir :we're yout
,masters nova" he, savagely
Noined. "If we do decide to hatig, - we'll begin
with you." - - ,
With this he walked away a few paces, and
held a consultation with Borne of his interior
officers, while We awaited the result with feel
ifigs that were far frond pleasant. The majority
being for delivering Ms to the commandant of
the fort below, we were sent off under a strong
guard. Afatigning march of sOine ten miles

hint for an hour, when he came with a man who
poitthelionsupon my wrbts. He then selected
two men, and gave them orders to see me safely
delivered to the provost' marshal of Newville,,'
' to use' no more hifrshness than a strict
performance:of their duty required:
• ''-"Yon will take the nearest route tO the rail

-Soon after this, the Colonel panned to slip a

did so: , •• •

The- Colonel, who was 'visibly &fleeted, neiv .
took his filial leave of me with the remark that
it wthild not be prudent for him to hold any
further conversation withme. Ilebademe fare
well in a voice touched With emotion, walked
hurriedly away, and Ism" him no more,
At the tithe appointed, the-two men returned'
.and-took charge of the, and we iintuediatelrlet
I off on our journey: Fora mile we rernaid in
sight of the camp ; and, then,!passing-oSer the
brow of a steep elevation, we descended to a
wild; rugged hollow, with trees, rock 'and hills
on every side of us'. Perhaps there viViild be no
better opportunity than the present;to try my
chance forlife and liberty ; and nert - ng myself
for the effort, on which so much depended, I
said; e
",130,ys I feel a - little loWspiriii4l, and would
like to ask a favor of you."
Well; what is it ?" inquired one of them.
"I have managed to secure a flask of whisky,"
said 1,-" and with your • permission, I will take
a drink." -
_
•‘"fhat's a. game that three "' s play at—eh,
Jim ?" returned the fellow, with iFlaugh.
" Taint nothing elge !" replied Jim.
At this, notwithstanding the ironnth my wrist,
I produced" the fiat bottle, end diger the cork
with my teeth.
•-;•-•
"Excuse me boys," I said, with a smile, "for
taking the first drink, as I v, ish to make sure
of least one shire while it is goingr r '-and with
this Lpnt the flask to my lips and held it there
long enough to have drank half of it though not
a drop of it went down, my throat.
." Oh come," said one of the men laying hold
of it, "just give a fellow traveller one chance,
• do!" , •
He drank to my perfect satisfaction, smacked_
his lips, and handed it to his anxious compan- ,
ion; who nobly__ imitated his example—remark='
iug when done, With a comical leer, as he hand
ed bark the bottle, "that thar7s the stuff for
trowsers."
"Just so!" said I, pretending to drink again.
In this way the flask - was passed some two or
three times in the course of the next ten min
utes, and then, with, a feelinff of joyful relief, I
saw that the last drop had been drained.
The effect was out immediate on my guards;
but in it short time I noticed that they begun
towalk heavily, and then unsteadily, and then
both of them muttered gomethinA, iibout feeling
" awful sleepy." I imitated their motions, with
every sense alive; and my heart' beating fast
with hope. We contidueti on :in this manner
sonic little distance, and had began to ascend
the opposite bill, at a spa where the hushes
grew thick on each Side of the path, when both
came to halt, looked with drunken gravity into
each other's faces for a few moments, and then
guietly sat down, and almost instantly fell over,
in a state of unconsciousness:
Now was any time, and gathtfing all my
strength I gave my irons a-tremenSuS Wrench.
As they suddenly snapped ussund& and left me
free, I could scarcely restrain a loud cry ofjoy.
To dragthe two men into the bushes, out of
sight of any chance passers, was - only the work
'of a minute. -As I still wore the buttereut-eel
ored clothes which the guerillai had forced upon
ins in exchange for mine, there was no need
fur further-change of dress to pass fora Con
federate soldier; and securing a musket and
plenty of ainmunition, I struck off through the
bushes to the right, and hurried away, over a
wild country, as fast as fear and hope could
drive me.
Keeping to the fields and the woods, avoiding
all highways. settlements, and even dwellings,
I pushed on, in a westerly direction all day, for
tunately without meeting,;a single person. Just
at dark- I came to it lonely cabin ; and sadly
feeling need of food, I ventured to kneek at the
door.
' Who's tlini?" tiloltdran. 2Z4fridd Tcf" .
1 "
A hungry soldier, who has lost his way," I
replied. ;For the 'love of Heaven, give the
something to eat, and • I will go on-and leave
you iu pence !•'
A pale and sickly looking white woman,with
art inthnt in her - arms, and three .or four chil
dren clinging to her in fear, opened the door
cautiously, and assured me that she, had noth
ing in the house b,ut some corm:take, and-only a
little of that 1 told her to give aim what she
could spare,,and she brought me a piece alma
the size of any fist. I then repestett that-Iliad
lost my way and: inquired for the nearest mili
tary station=taking, good care, after I had left
her, to'steer us clear of it as possible.
pushed on in the dark till I came to a rocky
hill, where tinding . semething like dea - ve, I crept
late it r a and spent the night, resuming my journey'
afThe first streak of light. The second day,
like the first, I 'inauaged- to get over a lung
stretch of country without being discovered,
gradually shaping any course to she r N ortlf., That
night spent in the 'woods, sleeping in-some
bushes end going supperless to any, damp. bed.
Thenext morning, on resuming my weary tramp,
I espied several rebel soldiers, inking about in ,
'different 'directions, and I became very muck
alarmed, fearing they were in search of me, and
did not venture from the wood all day. Since,
leailrig,the rebel' camp, I had eaten milting
but the corn cake given me by the poor li:'011til,
and J. now felt the pangs of hunger Mostkeenly,
besides being very weak for the want of food.
I could not remain where I was in safety,
and 'as soon asit became dark; 1 boldly struck
dowu.through -the woods into a road, and, set
ting, my face northward, hurried forward, re
gardleSs of consequences. In the course of five
miles I passed several comfortable dwellings,-
but .I -- was afraid to stop and ask for food. • At
'last I discovered a mean shanty, standing a lit
tle off fruit the road, and I resolved to try any
luck there. As I got over the fence to go to it;
a little dog ran up tame barking' savagely and
attenipting . to bite_ my - heels. I watched nay
chance, and knocked him over with the breach
of any Musket which I still 'Carried., As he lay
quiii at ing on the ground, it necurred tome that
'I could eat him ; and, killing hint at once I pick
ed.him up, went back into the road, dud con
tinued on until I came to a wood, i n t o which I
penetrated fbr half a mile,. and-, there strucka
'fire and cooked 'an animal, which T deCoured
with' a gusto 'I have since wanted for a much,
better meal. I then went sonic distano,o:ona
the
,fire, to lay dowMund went to.sleep., I also
-slept some the next' day. keeping myself con
, cealed in the woods, and the next night I went
back to the road and pushed on as before.-
Thus I continued to work my way northward
for several , days, till at last 1 was challenged
by a Sentry in blue. when I almo.st hunted for
joy finding myself once more within the Fed-,
eral ;- •
I have not - inthis narrative exposed the noble
Colonel, God bless him, to whom X am indebted
for my
_liberty; perhaps.my life, for,no one can

They can find no opportunity-in any respecta
ble family, and so
„try theielbrtunes with this
new concern in Cleveland', 41,the hope that all
will be arranged at Chicago; with wine andcake
for every guest. We do no`f, know the terms
of the settlement, but many good things arere
served for the deserving old Maids; and if the
affair can be arranged,the balance of their lives,
dear old souls, may be spent over snuff. and tea.
What delightful stories they could tell! What
varied experiences they have had—and if they
old alaids,it is not their fault, for they haid
been all their lives true to themselves, and Max,-
cies for a change—how Miss Fremont went to
California,-and the gold mines, and the Itocky

she might have been fortunate butfor thkugly
Mr. Lincoln, who was jealous ofher, andmade
people believe that she .was nb better than she
ought to be But a more interesting
- story we
shall have from Miss Cochrane. The old lady
is somewhat garrulous, and rather -eccentric of
like most old maids, and has been in
:more families than one since her earlier life.
Row she went to Buffalo after the Van I3urens,
and to - Mr. Pierce after certain - loaves and fish

to Mr. Lincoln after further- leaves and fishes,
and - down into the' army, where that envious
fellow Burnside worried her se-that she get sick
and had to come home. Shnbas hair lteeo* . n

and now there is hope that she will have peace
and comfort, and-take and wine, and tea and
snuff, at Chicago.
This, of coarse, will be a happy union. .111-
natured people tell us that there has been much
ill-feelitig between the. families, and that great
scandal will ensue. But if they love each other
now,what difference will it make?, Lam sure,"
says Mrs. Malaprop. " 1. hated your poor, dear._
uncle, before marriage, as if he'd been a black
amour,-
and yet, Miss, you are sensible what
wife I make." There are two intimate friiMds
of .the family, for instance, Mr. Wendell Phil
lips.; and Mr. Fernando Wood. ,We all know
that- Phillips and Wood have been a-20 , far apart
as the_antipodes, as different in their tcmper as
' the'cobra-di-cap'ello and the dove. They have
been the ; political Montagu and Capulet, never.
meeting without a brawl. Phillips has been ft,
high-priest among the anti-slavery radicals, and
for,,twenty years has swung, the censor in the
anti-slavery. temple- Wood has been a prince,.
among Secessionists
' as consistent but hardly as
courageous a rebel as Davis or toombs. All
these things will be forgotten atChicago—and
when- the benediction is pronounced over the
newlY-united Ciopperhead-Radicals, their glass
es will clink together, in the joyouslibation.—
We shall have McClellan and MCKinstry, Fitz
John Porter and the staff-majors with unpro
nounceable names, William B. Reed and Mrs.
B. Cady Stanton, Charles Ingersoll and Mrs.
Abby Forster, Samuel S. Cox antl:Frederick

German friends of the New Nation tvillsing the

It is 'not: for us to be too - busy with our
neighbors' affairs, or to ask impertinent ques
tions. The New Nation tells Us that the main
cause. of this affectionate sympathy between the
CuPperheads - and- Radicals is "the • hateed of

and surpasses all difference of principle; of re
cord, of firmer association. - \V hat ate freedom"

grossing, so intense, so all-purvading-r—So gen
eral in its application, from Wendell Phillips to
Je,flerson Davis—that we venture to make a
suggestion. Why 'not transfer the marriage
ceremoil from Chicago to Richmond? If `.ha
tred of Lincoln" is to he the motto•of the new'
epithalainiuw, there will be more singers in
Richmond than in Cleveland, or ,Citicaga, or
the Five - Poi l ots. Let them all herd together,
and go to the place of all places where the "ha

They need not have any hesitancy about getting
