Iloodcd Out ')1 w % 'll!!"] klllii is\ $ MUSIC HATH CHARMS. Sherman Was by Foragers, Ingenuity was the characteristic that made Private Ed (irim the handy man of his company, that helped him to be always comfortable, often well fed and got him into more scrapes than any other private in Company K, of the 6ne Hundred and Fifth, Ohio. That is saying a good deal, for Com pany K was the best band of foragers in Sherman's army, and of all that command they were fattest, sauciest and most full of fight during the march to the rea. Ed was ragged and usual ly had enough for a good meal between marches, but despite his tatters ho •ighed after luxuries which for the most part were unattainable to private soldiers. It was this craving for some thing ta-sti - that made him go out with two comrades on a secret foraging ex pedition one afternoon in Tennessee just as the army were going to en camp by a little creek. Sherman’s headquarters were pitched on a little meadow by the river hank, on a beauti ful green sward, when the three pri vates went up the creek to find some thing good to eat. They did not go far until a small pond was found, a sheet of water which looked as though it might be full of fish. It was artificial ly backed up for a mill dam by an em bankment of woodwork kept in posi tion by big logs. The three were in search of lish, and having cast their impoverished lines waited patiently for something to bite. Hut the fish were •ly and had evidently no intention of becoming part of a hungry soldier’s ■upper, (irim was in despair and his comrades swore as it is the immemor ial right of every private the world over to do on the least provocation. Then, like a spark of genius, (irim a glorious idea, he thought, that would not only con tribute lish to the supper of himself and his comrades, but supply something toothsome for all the sighing members of Company K. He confided his plans to his two friends, and all three set out to gather brushwood. This they piled against the wooden dam, and when enough had been gathered the fagots were lighted, and the three schemers sat down on the hank, lit their pipes and awaited results. Their plan was to burn down the dam, let the water rM-ape, and catch all the fish they could carry, as the rushing water left them high a»d dry in the lake bed, and that plan was carried out to the h-tter. When the big wooden supports w ere well eaten Into by the lire the weight of water above the dam Iwgan to bulge the woodwork, and little spurts would trickle over into the almost dry bed of the creel; below.

From that point, accompanying I’igue’.s command, un- I der (Jen. Wheeler he brought his 1 master, Lieut. McMahon, of East Ten nessee, on the left Hank of the invad ing army, to Aiken. When Sherman's army, prssing ; through Barnwell county, reached the line of the South Carolina railway, (Jen. Kilpatrick,with his cavalry, made a bold dash westward for the purpose of destroying the cotton mills at (iran- iteville, five miles w\-d of Aiken, and possibly the confederate powder mills in Augusta. <!a., thirteen miles further west of (Jraniteville. At Aiken they met with the forces of (Jen. Wheeler anil were repulsed after a sharp skir mish. and retired to the main body of the army. This light determined the future fate of old Jim.

Then the three comrades were in their glory. They jumped about in the mud, yelling like madmen, laugh ing, hallooing and screaming as thev went after the wriggling and aston ished lish. It was near nightfall before the dam hurat. and by that time the three Ohioan musketeers had loaded them selves up with the fresh provisions, which were still wriggling as if afraid of the camp (ires they could almost smell—darkness came over the camp in the valley They hurried Park t , Company K with their precious load, and as the three figures were lost in the gloom toward camp an aide on horseback galloped up to (lie pond.

It was during Sherman's famous march to the sea. The vast army had burned the bridges behind, and was subsisting on the best the country through which it was passing could afford. Even those w ho have carefully studied the history of that long and notable tramp from Atlanta to the sea can appreciate hut faintly the terrible scenes which followed in the Wiikc of the army. War may he grand and brave, but the sorrow ami woe. pain and death, tire the shadows of the picture, and those shadow s far ex ceed the sunshine. Orders had been given to burn all cotton or other goods which would in any way aid the confederacy. In con sequence, the line of march was marked by vast columns of smoke, in dicating the burning of cities, towns, farmhouses, barns—in fact, almost everything inflammable. Great suf fering and distress was caused by- carrying out this order, and the peo ple began to fully realize the horrors of war. Orders wen* also given for each com pany to.forage for its provisions in the neighboring country. Hungry men, especially when the conscience is somewhat seared by the brutalities of war, are not apt to be over-scrupulous ns to tin* amount of discomfort and distress occasioned by helping them selves from the larder-, of the enemy. They of course realized that their vis its were not appreciated, but that fact diil not deter them for a moment from making a "clean sweep" of everything necessary to appease the appetites of themselves and their comrades. A sergeant and small squad of men were detailed from each company for this purpose, and at times their duties were very arduous indeed. One day in the early stages of the march one of the:-.* squads, with its sergeant riding at the head, came upon a plantation home, rather more pretention . n-whaps, than many of those in tin* immediate vicinity. It was a pcac •fill scene and one calcu lated to awaken tender emotions, but soldiers have very little regatd for beauty when duty calls them forward. The men quickly dismounted, and after carefully fastening their horses to guard against surprise, began ran sacking smokehou-es and chicken- coops, while the se-geant kept watch in a prominent position before the mansion. To those long accustomed to this kind of work the task of getting everything edible from the outhouses was a trifling one and soon accom plished. They then turned their atten tion to tin* house, where two attractive hut very frightened young ladies were found to be the sole occupants. Vig orous protest was made against the intruders despoiling the house of its contents, but they were gruilly di rected to plead to the sergeant for mercy. The sergeant being young, tender hearted and somewhat smitten, per haps, by the beauty of the ladies, was disposed to listen to their request; but, knowing that his soldiers were do ing their duty, he w isely concluded to let unit ter.-, rest as they were, so lie politely informed the ladies that this was war and that the necessities of war demanded the spoliation of the enemy; that he \vas there to see that their persons wen * protected, tmt that while his men kept within the line of their iluty he could not interfere. He very much regretted the necessity which compelled liim to discommode them, but assured them that while he i.B'T ' tn'm '-CxA i :-- / Wf/J £ y IV V.

Home—the tiny cottage nestling on i the hillside, shaded by the neighboring trees; the distant fields j-cllow with ripiening grain, lowing cattle, tink ling bells, moss-grown well, shady porch, inviting chair, happy family— ah! the memories arc too much, and the silent tears trickle gently down the sunburned cheeks as they are car ried in fancy to a realization of for mer happiness. Can they now de- ’spoil this pleasant home and bring ’^Borrow upon this happy family? No, it is impossible. As the last sweet notes quiver on the stillness of the room, and finally die away, each man brushes away a tear and, choking down a sob, silent ly steals away, leaving the house and its occupants in peace. Threats or acts of compulsion could not have accom plished this result, but the tender notes of a sweet song touched the re sponsive cord in their rugged breasts and melted the hardness with its pur ity and love.—l>r.

With much disappointment and vex ation, the girls turned away. The ser geant, looking toward the house, no ticed a piano through the open win dow of the parlor. An idea flashed through his mind, and he asked the young ladies if they performed on the instrument. On receiving an answer in the affirmative, he requested them to play a selection to attract the at tention of the soldiers, and when they observed the men listening to sing "Home, Sweet Home.” The young ladies, acting on this suggestion, went to tin* piano and played as requested. Soon the ragged soldiers, attracted b.V the unusual sound, stood in line hcliiiid the ladies listening to the sweet ami mellow tones of the instrument. They did not make a very attractive picture—indeed, it was almost laugh able.

FURNITURE the Chowan river at Winton, but they had heard of the presenee of federal gunboats ut that point, and thought it safer to seek a ford farther up the stream. After crossing the river they laid the great good luck to fall in with a man who had a sulky that, lie wished to send to tin* town. They had been in tlu* saddle for seven or eight days, were pretty well worn out. ami of course were glad to change their method of locomotion. They agreed to riili* "turn about," Mullen to have tlu* first chance. But, as lie says In recounting the affair: "All is not gold that glitters.” He had hardly started before he began to fear that the thing would break down. For three years lie had been rilling on caissons and gun carriages, and tlu* frail appearance and elastic motions of the sulky kept him in con stant terror. Before lie had gone far ho gladly surrendered the machine to Vilu dbeo, who, being braver or less imaginative, got on fatuously. The sight of his comfort emboldened Mullen, and when his turn came again he claimed it, and soon found himself growing accus tomed to tin* seat. When they were several miles from the town Whedbee took a crossroad homeward, leaving Mullen to go on alone, and in a few minutes then* came tlu* booming of cannon. It must be from the gunboats in the river, and Mullen began to feel u'ncav.y. He had no reason to expect any real trouble, but still he did not fancy the idea of facing the music all alone. However, there was nothing to do but to go on. He seated himself firm ly in the gig, tightened the reins, and dashed over the bridge and up the main street of the town in the best style hi* could muster. "As 1 expected," he concludes, “the town was tilled with sailors :iiul sol diers, but they gave me :i cheer :is I passed, and shouted: ‘There’s a Johnny coming home in the best style yet.
