This ,WaS S. sore subject for the

hold; the :most
_beautiful and virtuous 'Of
her maids of She bad long loved
the Sire.rde 'Lam, and their nuptials
,w,fire celebrated with rejoicings, but little
ominous of the result. De Lagoy , was ac
cused but a year after of traitorously.yield
inglo the:emperor a fertiess ,under his
cominand,:and he-was condemned tO:per
petual_impriionmett. For some
,time
Emilie was inconsolabie often visiting the
miserable-.4unr , eon of her husband,!.aod
suffering, on .her return from witnessing
his wretchedness, .such paroxysms of
grief, as threatened her life. Suddenly,
midst - of, her sorrow, she disap
peared; and 'inquiry only divulged' the
disgraceful fact that she had escaped from
France; bearing her jewels with h er ,: and
accompanied by her page Robinet Leroux.
It was whispered : that, during her jour
ney, the lady, and her stripling were often;
seep together.; •,and Margaret, enraged at
these discoveries, commanded. thai no
further quest should be made for ber;lost
favorite. . . .
Taunted now by her brother, shside
ferided Emilie,, declaring that she be-,
Hayed her to be guiltless, even going so
far as to boast that within a month she
would bring proof of her. innocence.
"Robinot was a •pretty - boy," said Fran •
cis, laughing:
"Let us wake a bet," cried Margaret.
"If I lose, I will bear this wild rhyme of
thine as a motto of my shame to my grave;
if I ' •
"I. will break, my window, and. grant
thee whatever boon thou askest," said the
•
king. ,
The result - of this bet was long sung by
troubadour and minstrel. Tbe queen ems
ployed-,a .hundred emissaries—published
reward* for any intelligenee.of Emilie
all in yabg. The month was ,espiritig,
and Margaret would have :given many
bright jewels to redeem her word. pn
the ere of the7fatal day, the jailer of the
prieon ;n which the Sire de Lagny, was
confined, sought audience of the queen ;
he brought her a message from ' the
knight to say 4 , : that if the lady Margaret
would ask his pardon "ftelier boon, and
obtain .fro_m her royal, blather that the
might be brought before him, her.bet was
won. Fair Margaret was very joyful,- and'
readily made the required praruise., Fran
cis was unwilling to see hiff false servant,
but he was in high good' humor, for a
cavalier had that, morning brought heel
ligence of, a victory over the imperialis:ts.
The messengeriiiinselt was lauded in the
despatches as thelost fearless and brave
knight in France. The king loaded him
with presents, ouly.regretting that a vow
prevented the soldier from raising a visor
or declaring his name. • ,
The-same evening as the setting, sun •
shone on the lattice on- which 'the ungal
lant rhyme was traced, Francis reposed
on the same settee,, and the beautiful
queen of-Navarre, with triumph in .hkr
bright eyes, sat beside him. Attended
by guards, the prisoner was brought in;
his frame was attenuated with privatiob,-
and he walked, with tottering steps. He
knelt at the feet of Francis, and uneov
eredhis head ; a quantity of rich golden j
hair then eseepieg, fell over the sunken
cheeks and pallid brow of the supplicant.
"We
: have treasonhere !" cried"the
king. "Sir jailer,, where .18 your pri
oner ?" .
"Sire,,blame bim nob", said ,the soft
faltering . voice of Emilie; "wiser m en

From the - 111st Reginaent:
,
NENYBERN,:N. March 12, - 1.863.
Thinking that perhaps the whereabouts
and what doings of the PotOr boys might
interest some of the old friends and neigh
bors-at hoine,. I have determined to again
venture on a detail for a While past. I
commence at near, the latest date and
go crabwise. ''On the 4th inst., we got
orders to prepare three days 'rations and
be ready to cnove",it mottienti notice.
The next evening at roll call we were told
to be ready
,the licit • incrairig,.,o % - aix o'-
elook; with skitliOlik' and overcoat; and
to take 60 'rounds of. amunition. Punc
tual to, the; time we were,rea'dy and pad.
dy Bluer, the Colonel, ordered a "right
Lee" and the column Moved off in high
spirits. We had lain idle for some time
arid longed'to stretch, our 'leas over the
laud or "'cinnamon seed adsandy - hot.
tom." Our force con'sisted of GCE). Prin.
ces Division of infantry,Jtwo batteries of
artilery; one of steel rifled, and a regiment
of cavalry. The right Wing of the divies
ion is Spinola's Brigade, o f, which the
171st Pa. M., is the right and leading
,
regiment. 'The'Pottor boys' are
,at the
u
head of the colmn„rand 'so have a better
opportunity for Boehm. all that is going
on, We directed our ;course towards
Treaton, a considerable of a redezvous for
for. the Rebels. At' noon we rested and
took our dinners at Polloekville, a small
town which was burned by our cavalry a
short time ago in retaliation for being
fired upon from the hOuses. A large cot
ton ware• house had . been burned with
quite a quantity of cotton by the' Rebels.
Some eight inilei furihdr marching brought
us to one of the finest plantations I have
seen, where the division camped for' the
night. Scarcely an inhabitant was - seen
aloog the route: All rooked deserted and
'desolate. At one poor house I saw two
I women and two girls, and at another an
old man and woman. At r every inbakited
•
bouse a white flag was hang out as the
column came, up. One poorly dressed
youngish man came out of the woods and
along with, us aways: The attention of
the Col. being called, tia•him he was taken
tup and put_underzuard..l.Tovvords night
another was picked up and served the
same way. Early next morning we
"pressed on fir eight Miles, when the cav
alry returned reporting that the enemy
had fled from Trenton and our game was
up that way. We about free and retraced
our steps to our camp ground a little after,
noon. After dinner and two hours rest,
we shouldered knapsacks, (which had
been left there in the morning,) and start
ed for Jacksonville, the county scat of
l Anzelo CO. Our route the rest of the I
day lay 'through a low, swampy wood,
making our march very tincoinfortable.l
We got to our camping ground at 8
o'clock in the evening, but it was three
'tbe'next morning, before tho 'whole col
umn got in. The next morning it was
reported that the Rebq. bad been seen in
some force a mile and a half off, just over
.the Whim Oak River. • We moved down
early in the morning, and found a battery
of cannon planted to cover the "Black
Brigade," who - were buildioga.,,bridge
'across the river.. The 171st crossed on
the stringers, and formed.• a line . three
fourths of temile beyond, in 'a field' near
where the enemy had disappeared in the
woods, and threw out skirmishers. The
whole Regitnent appeared, as cool as
if Oink en 'dress parade

said the•Col„Premember that the Rel2els,
Wear gray clothes, and do ' not niake as
fine a line as we do. You must fire lu'vv,
and be' Careful not to waste any powder.
Remember that the, bravest men always
come out best." e remained, here un
til the column bad crossed the bridge
whe'n we moved on recomiiteying fer,
mile or two. ' 'We saw no enemy, for . the
r eason tbe.sequel will show, We passed
a few fine plantations, most of which were
deserted. We halted for a Jest octane,
the • residenee of aN. C. Justice. There
was no one at home but tr woman and
young girl,, her'husband bad been in the
Relief - army, and she ,had been told he
was dead. One of the blacks in our Reg
iment, a waiter, was raisect,bere, and want
ed to, go up and see his Old mistress.—
The captain took lain up. They seemed
very glad to see one another, ',but the
Mistress'•periitiasions far-him tostay there
were indignantly 'Scorned. Some of the,
boys picked up 'some, old and curious
booke:ib an out house, and brought them,
away; and some old letterso'ine of Which
was dated in. 'We came across a
few more stragglers:along the way, all of
whom were bagged, Or, to use theibroible
expression of the Rebels, "throivii in for
wedge-wood." , Just at dark we Met Our
cavalry, who had been down to Jackson
'vine, and reported that the, enemy, had
rim:them there too.. They . had taken three
Rebel eavalry prisoners; horses and all.
A bivouac was ordered on a inialllplanta
