Words cannot describe the terrific grand- eur of a midnight charge. Riderless horses, mad with pain, go plunging through the ranks, and men appear like spectres moving here and there amid the wild confusion. Volley answers volley, steel meets steel with dreadful elangor, brave men shout and dy- ing men groan, till one party quits tho field and the stillness of death reigns over the place.


Considering the chances, the wonder is that so many survived that perilous night. It is hoped that the result of theso Inte expeditions will occasion greater caution in time to come. In this war one cannot chase a thousand, nor two put ten thousand to flight, but time, perhaps, will tell us what can be done in an even-handed conflict with the guerilla chief and his famous crew.

So wrapt was my mind in thoughts of the past, meditations upon the present and fore- bodings of the future, that I had not noticed a deviation from my beaten track until I was aroused from my reveries by the form of a soldier reclining at full length beneath a shelving rock.

I spoke to him, but received no reply ; I then gently removed the overcoat cape from his face, when a picture greeted my eyes, the peculiar beauty, as there pictured, has seldom, if ever, been eclipsed in my experience, and I know not how long my senses would have feasted upon the bewitching and inspiring influence of that angelic countenance, had he not bro- ken the mystic spell that enthralled me by beauty of which I can never forget.

The features were regular and well formed ; the forehead was prominent and despite ex- posure was so white as to reveal the blue veins that seemed to throb beneath their trausparent covering ; the eyes were closed, yet their heavily fringed lids seemed half in doubt as to their rightful position, as the smiles played around a mouth so delicate and bandsome that I almost fancied myself in the presence of a maiden.

Being startled fromn slumbers so serene and happy, his senses were unprepared to greet the pres- ence of a rough and tempestuous storn, and for a few moments the youth was apparently uncertain which world he was an inhabitant of.
