frci&fdier !” exclaimed a lone
widow in East Tennessee, ns a bat
tered veteran in blue appeared at her
door, and meekly asked for a cup of
cold wqtcr* “Pore Soldierl I kuow in
reason that you are tired and thirsty,
and that you would bepowciful glad
to fet A'drink of water, not to speak
of a little suthin to mix with it.’
“Thank you,mum; but 1 belong to
thc'Tfoughtcrs of Teropciance, and
canS drink, unless it is a little in
the way of medicine, and I do feel
very weak, as I have marched more
than forty miles to-day”
“Forty mile! The laws have mas
sy! How could you do it? Why, it
would kill my mule.”
‘•It was very bard; but we get use
to it. I would n't have minded it, if I
had anything to eat.”
“Sakes alive! Do come in and sit
down. Poffr Soldier!”
The gOi*d old lady brought out a
black bottle, from which the battered
veteran poured a teaspoonful into a
glass of water, and took a vigorous
pull at the bottle when her back was
turned. Then she placed before him
a substantial supper of ham eggs and
cornbread and coffee, upon which be
advanced in gallant style.
••An.I you are mighty young to be, a
soldier.” she said, looking at him be-
nignnntly over her spectacles.
‘•IV mum; I am the only son of
my widowed mother; but my country
called me, uud my duty to my country
is only second to my duty to my Cre
ator.”
“Sho? Why you talk as pcertasa
minister.”
‘T was stuoying for the miuistry
when the war broke out.”
**1 Imd a notion that the soldiers
were all so wicked; but I am glad to
find out they ain’t. Yon have seen a
jmvvei* of rightin’, I recon.”
•*A great deal,mum. It is bard f<
a Christian to take life; but the cn
mies of our country must be punished.”
“.less so. Have you ever been
wounded ?”
Very often. I was once shot
through the heart.”
"Through the heart! Lawful sakes,
Didn't it kill you?”
“-Not quite. The intercostal
flc was penetrated langiludinnlly and
exuavasated with viracosc veins; but
the bullet ranged across the left lobe
Of the arachnoid artery, producin'
commicntcd fracture of the anterior
probe.vj of the cerebellum, and causing
a lesion ofthc spinal vis eery and the
liypopliospliates of the fibula, and
that delayed my recovery.”
“You don’t mean to say that y
lived through all that?’’
“I was spared, mum, to be an hum
ble monument of the mercy of Prov
idenep.”
“Should think so. what was that
noise ? It sounded like somebody
down in 11m cellar.”
“Nothiug but rats* Don’t be
alarmed, madam. I am here and

house of a widow when it was attack
ed by a dozen guerrillas,
obliged to kill seven of them, and the
