' [On the night of October 28th, when Gen'l Cleary's.Division of the 12tn corps repulsed the attacking forces of Longstreet at Wauhat chin. Tern., a number of mules, alfrighted by the noise of - battle, dashed into the ranks of Hampton's Legion. causing much dismay among the Rebels, and compelling many of them to fall back under a st pposed charge of cavalry. Captain Tt,os. IL Elliott, of Geory's staff, sends as the.following rendition of the incident, which he gleaned from an interior contemporary. Its antbStabip is not known by the Captain.—Ez.] Half a mile, bairn mile, Half a mile onward. , Right toward the Georgia troop Broke the two hundred “Forwaad the Mule Brigade," "Charge for the Rebs 1" they neighed; Straight for the Georgia troops, ' Broke the two hundred. , , 'Torward. the Mule Brigade I" Was there n mule dismayed? Not,when the long tars felt All their ropes sundered; Theirs not to make reply; Theirs not to reason why; Theirs hut to make them fly. • On I to the Geurght troops, Broke the two hundred. Mules to the right of them, • Mules to the left of them, Mules also behind them, Pawed, neighed and thundered, Braking their own confines. Breaking through Longstreet's lines, Into the Georgia troops Stormed the two hundred. Wild all their eyes did glare, Whisked all their tails in air. SentCring all the chivalry there While'sll the world wondered) Not a mule back-bebtraddle4. Yet how they all skedaddled Fled every Georgian, Unsabered, unsaddled, Scattered and sundered, How they were routed there By the two hundred. Males to the tight of them, Moles to the left of them, Mules 1111 around them, Paued, neighed, and thundered; Followed by hoof and bead, Fu'l malty IL hero fled, Fain m the last ditch dead, Back from tin 'rtss'skiw," All that WAS left of them, Left by the two hundred_ When can their glery fade? 0. the wild charge they made! All the world Wondered. Honor the charge they made,- Honor the Mule Brigade, Lonpeared two hundred. °No rent imaits this mouth ?

Mr. Mathew Doane vra. in particularly bad humor this raw December warning Everything had gone wrong. Stocks had fallen when they oue.ht to have risen— his clerk had tipped over the inkstand on hie tipeeial and peculiar heap of paper— the lire obstinately refused to burn in the grate-1n short, nothing went right, and Duane was consequently and correspond ingly cro"s. ...Jenkins "Yes, sir !"

"Then don't stand there starin' like en idiot," snarled Mr. Doane in a sudden burst of irritation, and Jeukins disappear ed like II shot. Just half an hour afterwards Mr. Mar. thew Doane brushed th. brown hair just sprinkled with grey away from his swum• yet nut unkindly brow, putting on his fur tined overcoat, he walked forth into the chilly winter air fullyAetermined. tiguratirely, to - annihilate the defaulting Widow Clarkson. It was a dwarfish little red brick house which appeared originally to have aspired two story hood lot, but cramped by cur- cum/name and settled down int.) a story ' and a half, but the windows shone like Brazilian pebbles. and the duarsteps were worn by much scouring. Neither of these circumstances, however, did Mr. Duane I remark, as he pulled the glittering brass door knob, and strode tote Mrs Clarkson's neat parlor. There was a small fire—very small, es if every lump of anthracite was hoarded. in thetstore, and at a table with writing implements before her. sat a young lady whom Mr. Doane at once recognized as Mrs. Clarkson's neice, Miss Olive Mellen. She was not disagreeable to look upon. though yo u would never have thought of classing- her among the beauties. with shining yack hair, blue, long lashed eyes and a very pretty pouth, hiding teeth like rice kernels, so whitethey.

Olive's cheek had reddened and her eyes flashed portentously. Mr. Doane turned towards the door, but ere he knew what he was doing, Olive had walked quietly across the room, looked the door and taken out the key—then she reanin 'ed her seat.
