A Tale of the late War.
BY E. J. O.
CHAPTER IL
One beautiful morning, as Ellen
stood on the veranda of the mansion,
prepared for her usual morning's
ride, an exercise and pleasure to -which
she had been accustomed ever since
she had been old enough to indulg?
in it, the old -waiting-man, Bosen,
presented himself with the unwelcome
intelligence, that her favorite riding
horse was lame, and inquiring whethel
he should saddle Toney, a young anc
rather wild animal (that had beer
standing in the stable for severa
weeks) for her. Ellen had riddor
Toney before, but always in company
with her father, who was now absent,
having gone to a distant part of thc
farm. Thinking only of the enjoy
ment of her ride, she very inconsider?
ately ordered Bosen to bring out thc
high-mettled steed, and mountec
him. The old servant know it was ?
great indiscretion, but, like othei
servants in higher stations in Ufe, h<
did not wish to tell his pretty mistress
the truth, when it would be unpalat
able. Ho had his misgivings, foi
before they left the yard, he saw, a.*
he afterwards declared, do debbie ii
Toney's eye. Whatever his fears were
however, lie kept them to himsel
until it was too late.
Leading out from the East side o
the yard, thero was a road that rai
down the side of tho valley, windin j
along the base of the hills. It was 01
that road that Ellen expected to tak
lier ride, but Toney suddenly disap
pointed her expectations, for as eooi
as the gate was opened, he bouudet
through it, and taking the path tba
lcd across the valley, lie went off at
rapid gallop. His rider tried t
check and turn him, but she plied th
reins in vain. Feeling comparative!
free, and rejoicing in the freshness c
tho morning air, he seemed to hav
but one object in view, and that wa
to go right ahead, and the rule h
hud adopted appeared to bo th
greatest distance in the shortet
possible time.
Fortunately, Ellon Early was
good rider, and was not easily f riglr
cued, so ns to lose her presence c
mind. Tho present emergency calle
for the exorcise of all her tact an
horscm hip. She kept her ses
firmly, aentally resolving, if si
could not control the vicious anima
to ride him down, or until ho beean
more manageable. She thought 1
would perhaps stop at tho brookle
to which he was in the habit of goii
every dav for water; blithe cleared
ut a single bound, and went on, seer
mg to gather fresh strength and spe<
at every jump. It was a grai
and fearful sight-that high-spirit*
steed, with flowing mane and disten
ed nostrils, leaping furiously over tl
plain, bearing that brave and beau
nil girl upon Ids back, with the plur
of her hat and her bright curls streai
ing in tho breeze. He was rnakii
now directly for the pickets, and in
few moments would be upon them.
Frightened and furious ai he wt
Ellon did not think the foolish hoi
would run into that company
soldiers. She was not loft long
suspense. Ero the sleepy fello
were aware of it-for they did n
expect io be charged from the rear
ho dashed through them, scatteri
thom Uko a covey of birds, and we
charging on. But a few hundr
yards in advance of the main body
pickets were two men posted in t
road, and their fixed bayonets a:
resolute appearance were too mu
for Toney. He turned, and, maki
a short circuit, came bounding a
snorting back down the road agni
The soldiers, now fully aroused, wt
prepared for him this time, and
did not go far through them befor.
strong hand grasped the bridle a
stopped him in his mad career.
Eilen expressed her thanks to 1
deliverer as well as she coidd, apo
gi zed for tho intrusion, and hurrie<
explained to the curious and gazi
group around her, how she came
fisit thom in such on unceremonh
manner. Seeing her embarrassmo
and appreciating the awkwardness
her situation, tho polite young sold
offered to conduct her back to i
house. She readily accepted
proposal, and as ho led the ho
_>"vr ? ^58 ( ? . .,*"?- y}*
ggfgSH?ag?Bgga?B?L-Li-i-!
away, she smilingly lifted her hat and
bowed to the soldiers: but she could
j not help but heari "x wish I could
haye caught that horsol" '?Boye,
! never say virginia is not worth fight
I iag for again Vf and similar expr?s
, si ons, as she rode off.
They proceeded some distance in
I silence. . Ellen, first spoke, saying,
laugh" gly, "I think -we ought to be
' acqua?ated after this. May I be so
bold as to inquire the name of my
preserver and protector?"
"To be sure," replied the young
soldier, turning with pleasure to his
companion. "My name is Gillespie,
Harry Gillespie. ' ' A pretty name and
a handsome fellow, thought Ellen, but
she did not say it.
"You are Miss Early, I believe,"
continued Harry, ' 'but* I am not so
fortunate as to know your given
name."
"That is quickly told," said she,
with, a smile, "It is Ellen. I see
from those bars on your collar, you
are an officer; one, two, that means
first lieutenant, does it not?"
"You are right"
<4Well now, Lieutenant," said the
fair girl, recovering her color and
spirits, "we are becoming acquainted,
may I ask you another question?"
*'A thousand, if you wish."
"Thank you, but one will do, at
least for the present. "What is the
meaning of that pretty rosette on
your hat? Does it signify that you
are a member of some mystic order
of Southern knight-errantry?"
"Oh, no, that is only palmetto, the
emblem of our State. The rosette
I was made by my sister and placed on
my hat before I left home."
"Yes, I remember now, you are
from South Carolina; and that is the
Palmetto State. You are' culled the
palmetto boys ; I have heard much of
their courage and gallantry, and I
have to-day had an evidence of both.
Harry scarcely knew what jto reply
to this delicate and flattering compli?
ment, but ventured to say that ho
hoped the favorable opinion she had
formed of thom would not be lessened
by any occurrence in tho future.
This pleasant conversation was soon
interrupted by their arrival at the
little river, where they met old Bosen.
That worthy had watched the wild
flight of Toney across the valley with
the greatest consternation and alarm.
He loved his beautiful young mis?
tress, and, coward as he was, would
have died any time to save her Ufe.
Feeling that he was, in a great degree,
responsible for the present catastro?
phe, and seeiug ho w powerless he was
to aid her, ho could only wring his
withered hands in the anguish of his
heart and indulge iu those pathetic
lamentations for which his race is
remarkable. His joy at seeiug Ellen
safe and sound was only equal to the
fright and grief he had felt. ' 'Bress
God A'mighty!" he exclaimed, "how
glau I is, Miss Ellen, to see you alive
and uot hurt. Oh, Lord, ef you had
bin, de old niau would have died, for
certain"
"Well, never mind now, Daddy
Bosen," said Ellen, taking Harry's
hand and leaping to the ground,
' 'here, take Toney ; ho has been very
naughty, but has found a master in
this gentlemau. You must not beat
him, you kuow father will not allow
that."
"Yes, I know dat is de boss' order,
but ef de old man had his way, he'd
lash you, you wenomous looking
rascal, till you'd 'have yourself bette i
next time," and the indignant old
African shook his fist in Toney'.s face.
That redoubtable champion w;ts quid
now; he had had his spree, and np
peared to be perfectly satisfied.
"Go along, Bosen," said Ellei
again, "and don't be talking to tin
horse as if he was a reasonable crea
ture. I have relieved yon of tha
care, my gallant knight," she cou
tinued, turning to Harry, "but mus
still burden you with myself."
"I would consider myself a for
t?nate knight indeed, if I neve
had to bear a more disagreeable bur
den," he replied, us he took her hand
and, leading lier across the foot-luj
that spanned tho stream, they pro
cecded ixp tho smooth and grass;
road, that led through the rich am
purple blossomed clover, toward th
house, chatting gayly and pleasant!
as they went along. Thoy would hav
made a fine picture for a painter, a
they walked leisurely up that road
Harry in his gray uniform, and Elle;
with her riding costume neatly fittin
her queenly form, and lier jaunty ha
with its gay plume.
Though nature had not been s
lavish in her gifts to Harry, us sh
had been to his beautiful companion
ho was a noble specimen of you th fi
manhood, tall, straight, andwell-prc
portioned, with handsome, regula
features, dark hair and whiskers, an
a fino intellectual face. His coir
plexion, naturally fair, wasnow sonic
what bronzed J>y exposure, and hi
deep gray eyes beamed with genth
ness and kindness of heart. Ho wn
frank and unreserved in his mannen
and his smile -was bright and winnini
He had attained his twenty-fifth yeai
but so virtuous and tranquil had bee
his life, that he did not appear to L
more than twenty. His father,
respectable farmer of middle Car<
lina, though not wealthy, possessed a
ample competency, and had given t
Harry every oppor' mity for ment?
and moral culturo, which tho gratefi
son had carefully improved. Whe
at college he had not squandered h
timo and means in frivolous an
worthless amusements, and ruine
his health and prospects by dissip:
tiou, but had diligently applied hin
self to his studies and borne off th
. ?_ * . t . . * ' -
* .? - ' ^ . .
highest honors of his class. Return?
ing to his home, he did not disdain
the quiet and useful pursuits of the
fanner, but could speed the plow or
handle the sickle, as well as ho could
wield the pen or tho sword. He was
not content to be idle, and soon be?
came an ornament of his family and
society, and a useful citizen of the
community in which he resided.
At the call of his State, he had
buckled on his sword in defence of
what he believed to be a just and
good cause.
On reaching the mansion, Harry
was thinking of returning, ; when
Ellen said, "Walk in, Lieutenant,
and take a seat on the piazza-it is
more pleasant here than in the parlor
at this hour of the day. Father, I
see, has not yet returned; please ex?
cuse me just ono moment." ?ndthe
happy girl tripped into the house to
take off her riding dress and hat.
She returned directly, neatly and
simply attired, and taking a chair,
seated herself near Harry, and endea?
vored to make him feel perfectly at
home.
It should be remarked, just here,
that not the least of Ellen's charms
was the fact that she appeared to be
entirely unconscious of her peerless
beauty. Harry had admired her per?
son, and .ho was now no less charmed
with her agreeable manners and con?
versation. Free from affectation or
constraint, intelligent, polite and
affable, frank and friendly, without
being rudo or familiar, her gentle
deportment and kind bearing made
you at mice feel that you were in tho
presence of one of those lovely and
gifted beings who always shed the
sunshine of joy and happiness around
them.. The young officer had been
accustomed through life to the socie?
ty of beautiful and lovely girls, but
their blandishments and charms had
hitherto had but little effect upon
him. His heart was still whole, and
he had never been seriously disturbed
by the tender passion. But his sus?
ceptibility and resolution were about
to bo put to a severer test than they
had ever before undergone. Would
he still be proof against Cupid's
darts? We shall see.
Some half au hour passed very
pleasantly away, when Ellen said",
laughingly: "I think, Lieutenant, we
ought to have some refreshment after
this morning's exercise. Let me see,"
she continued, rising and going into
the house, "if I cannot lind some?
thing."
She soon returned, boariug a large
waiter, filled with tho choicest luxu?
ries of the season-there Tere some
slices of fine white bread and a huge
ball of golden butter, tumblers Ol
large, luscious cherries, and a dish ol
beautiful strawberries, covered with
cream and sugar, and Hanked by a
pitcher of cool milk. Placing thc
waiter on a small table in front of hoi
guest, she said, apologetically, "Ian]
sorry I have no nice cake and win?
for you, Lieutenant; but the house if
empty this morning."
"I will hear no apology in the pre
sence of this table, Miss Ellen,'
Harry replied. "You could nothav<
pleased one who has been living foi
months past on hard bread or slap
jacks and salt meat, better. Aud nov
you will please me better still if yov
will help me to demolish this castle o
good things. "
"You will lead the assault, my goo?
knight," said she, playfully, "and
will follow."
Harry did not need a -secon<
prompting, and with such viands t?
fpiee their pleasant chat, the tim
ll->w -rapidly.
"Is it not rather early for strawbei
ries and cherries in Virginia," re
marked the young officer, as he help
ed himself to them for the second o
third time.
"Yes," replied his companion
"the strawberries grew in the warm
house, and the cherries are a vcr
early kind. Tho trees stand on th
South side of the garden, where th
first warm suns of spring strike then:
and then, you know," said she, wit
an arch smile, "wo are an Earl
people, and ought to have earl
fruit."
"To be sure," rejoined Hair}
laughing; "I did not think ofthat.
had almost wished the name migh
be changed, but for the present 1 wi
repent of my wish."
Eilen looked at him with a puzzle
expression of countenance, and
slight blush suffused her beau ti fv
face. Harry noticed it, und it sent
thrill of pleasure through every filu
of his being.
How long they would have sat thu
it is difficult to tell, had not the Lici
tenant looked at his watch and see
that he had already over-stayod th
timo to which he had limited hiuisel
He rose to depart. Ellen asked au
urged him to stay to dinner, as lu
father would then be home, und wold
be happy to make his acquaintance
and when he lu ard the event of th
morning, he would wish, she knev
to thank him for tho kindness li
had shown to her. But duty was in
p'erative, and he had to obey. Wei
if he must go, he should call in th
morning, on his return lo camp. H
promised to do so, and took up h
hat
"As life is always uncertain," sui
Ellen, extending her hand, "and e?
pecially so in time of war, if wo nevi
meet again, Lieutenant, 1 want yo
always to consider me your friem
I am sure I shall never cease to fe?
grateful to you."
"Whatever may be joy lot in th
future," Hurry replied, with dee
feeling, "I can never forget the o>
curronces of this day ; and I shall ov<
look back to the pleasant timo I have
spent with you, as the happiest mo?
ments of my life."
There was ? pressure of hands-a
simple act pf ceremony, and usually
an assurance of friendship, but some?
times revealing a deeper feeling-and
he was gone.
As Lieut. Gillespie recrossed the
valley on his way Iback to his com?
pany, his heart was filled with new
and strange sensations. The sun
seemed to shine brighter, the fields
looked greener and fresher, and he
. appeared to be all at once lifted up
into a higher and nobler sphere of
existence. But novel and unusual as
were his emotions, they were by no
means disagreeable or unwelcome.
His duties, which before were so irk?
some, now seemed light, and the fu?
ture was bright with hopo. What
could such pleasant and elevating
feedings portend? Was he in love?
If he had not been a novice in wily
Cupid's arts, and had never felt tho
sweet harbingers of his presence, he
would not have asked himself that
question. He covdd not have mis?
taken the symptoms. But judging
from the past, reflecting how often
ho had been proof against the fasci?
nations and blandishments of the
tender sex, he doubtless scouted the
idea that in the short space of a few
hours he had been entangled in thc
silken meshes of love. ?iot he. Ali,
Harry 1 others have reasoned from
similar premises, and they have been
swept away like frost-work before the
morning sun!
When ho reaohed tho pickot-post,
he was surprised to find the company
drawn up as on dress parade. As he
came up, the captain, a talented
young mau, who was a wit as well as
a wag, approached him, and taking
off his hat with great deference aud
respect, addressed him in the follow?
ing strain :
"Lieut. Gillespie, it has been made
my pleasant duty to greet you on
your return to this post, and to con?
vey to you, in the name of tho com?
pany here assembled, their hearty
thanks for the admirable and gallant
manner in which you rescued a beau?
tiful young lady this morning, from
what seemed inevitable destruction,
and conducted her to her pleasant
home. That you lingered a few
hours in that bower of beauty and
refinement waa both natural and pro?
per, and the man that would blaine
you for it would be destitute of the
ordinary sensibilities of our nature, j
By your gentlemanly and meritorious ,
conduct in this affair, you have in?
creased that high regard which we
have entertained for you, and have
reflected honor on our company and
tho Palmetto State."
Knowing the Captain's goodness of
heart, Harry expected a cordial greet?
ing; but this flourssh of rhetoric took
him somewhat by surprise; Collect?
ing his scattered thoughts, however,
as well ns he could, ho replied :
"Captain, to know that I possess
your confidence and esteem, and that
of my comrades-in-arms, has ever
been to me a source of delight; and
to be assured that in perforim.ig a
simple act of kindness and politeness
I have merited your approbation, fills
me with pleasure, if, in doing what
1 considered nothing moro than my
duty, I have conferred any honor on
my company and State, ? am happy
and proud to know it. It is reward
enough for me to know that I rescued
from imminent danger ono ot* the
most beautiful beings I over beheld;
and after escorting her to her home,
found that her intelligence and kind?
ness of heart, and her graceful man?
ners and accomplishments, were only j
equaled by her beauty. That I lin
gered there a few hours is not sur-1
prising to myself, and i am glad it ?
does not surprise yon. And now |
T would say, in conclusion, that I I
have only leave of absence from the I
mansion until to-morrow morning;
and if in future I should not bo al?
ways present at roll-cull, I hope! will
not be reported and put ou extra
duty."
This well-timed speech was re?
ceived with laughter and applause;
tlie generous Captain took Harry's
hand and shook it cordially ; and thc
merry soldie rs, breaking ranks, dis?
persed again to their cosy beds on
the luxuriant grass.
