I submitted without resen _ ment to what Corporal Jack Newma used to term an "all-fired, genuin teetotal cussing." On our line < march near the road we passed an ol frame building, evidently, an ol church or school house. From tt a house there issued groans, crie " shouts of defiance, oaths and threai ' of hanging the old Jeff Dav and every rebel in the Soutl 1 Seeing the surgeon of our regimei on the inside near the door, I rod apar* from the line, dismounted an 3 stepped inside the building, used, i I understood, as a hospital for th f wounded Federals fallen into oi ' hands. Listening and lookin around I felt as if Dante could n< have improved upon it as a picture ( one of his compartments of hell, j Our surgeon was exerting himse with all means at his hands and t ^ the extent of his ability to alleviat the more seriously wounded and su ' fering. Straightening up from bene j ing over a poor fellow in blue, wh had just breathed his last, he came t me near the door. "Denson." I sail i "you seem to have in charge here tough lot."

"They have conceived the ide that we were whipped yesterday an ] are in full retreat today; so the dare, like cowards, to curse Ind ye at the men who thrashed them ye: terday, whom they think are retreat a ing, but who, as you are aware, ar just beginning to put a whole lc I more of them at the next bout in th ' same fix, and worse, as these fe a lows." ; We walked down the aisle. Th wounded were lying and sitting o r the wooden benches, the cursing an yelling at the passing troops cor . tinuing, when suddenly a stout bearded, villanous looking fellm propped up against the wall at th s end of a bench, with shirt and pant dyed with blood, pointed his finge f then savagely shook his fist at m f and yelled out: "There's the . rebel that put two pistol bui leets in my side and thigh yesterdaj I know you you by the old blac r feather in your hat.

A e> "Sir," he said, "I regret the low, dirty abuse and insult to which you dt . have been subjected. While too low ld and contemptible for your notice, I > ie am ashamed. The low blackguard s? over there, I am pleased to say, does ts not belong to my company or regi- , i3 ment and is unknown to me, but he k- disgraces our uniform." "He be11 longs to ray regiment," replied a tall, fine looking Irish sergeant next d to the young and gentlemanly cor 13 poral; "but he is'a dirty devil, and ie I wish the first bullet that struck ir him had cut his devilish tongue from S his bloody head. Be jabez, if I was only in reach of him I would smash I his ugly mug to smithereens with i one sthpoke of me fist." "Thank you ./ If: you, corporal!"
