They were our comrades in many n battle-field, and when tho conflict grew, fierce and when our lines weiodcnimitctl, and we wore looking anxiously for help, we never asked the color of tho division that swept by or over us with levelled bayonets, nnd cheers that shook tho earth. What difference did it mnko to us whether tho cheers of victory that mine out ol too uaiiiu cloud, spring from tin throats of men whoso skins were white and lair, or welled up from bosoms dusky as tho night? What cared wo whether tho blood that was reddening tho field around us (lowed Irom the Hcins and arteries ol men boasting a long lino of Saxon nnccstry, or gushed from tlto sliiukeu heart of men whoso blood had grown fiery be neath the sultry stin of Africa?

A Strange but Alleged True Tale. The Altooiin (t'n.) Titbuno is respon sible ,for the fnllowintf story, which iC proiiounccs true to the letterr ' A youiiir man eivrm liKt Himn ns Harry Stewart', nirived nt Altoona not long since iu a state ol complete desti tution, nml called upon l.ev, Mr. Guyer, to whom ho stated thnt bis pa rents had died in Idaho, lcaiitghlni .-nunc ami penniless ; tnat tliey had come ftom England, nml moved Ui Idaho when 110110 but Indians !iiIpi,1 I that Tenitery, ami that lie had never 1 enjoyed nny advantages of education t save what his mother had given him. 1 Ho had heard iu Idaho that in Pcnn- sylvaniii orphans were given education ' for nothing, and ho desired to reach ' Hariishurg to obtain entrance to 0110 of tho Slate institutions of learning. 1 lite toy appealed ingenious, nnd gteatly intotested (itiycr iu his behalf, j who took him to John Shoemaker's ol- . J flee. Shoemaker speedily obtained him a situation in Hlnck's planing mill, but 1 alter wotking three or four hours, he came back and Mated that ho wished to ' goon lo Hariisburg. A pass to that J jtlace was procured (or him, nnd ho wns ! sent on Ins wav. those who hml been I wiliitig in belileud him foru'cttlug nil 1 nboid hlmin I he busy enres if life. ? While in conversalioii with (itiycr, I the boy had stated that his mother had i tell him some papers which she declared weio very vibiable, but which he could ' f not read. When in Hashing, n suit- den thought struck him, and lie en tered the law ollir-n of U. Minnicli to whom he showed the paper. A brief eviiiiiinatioii of tint document showed iho latter their Into nature, nml tie nl ' oino telegratihed to tlto Hilll-di Minis- ter nt Washington, who in turn lelo- graphed to the American Minister nt , London, nnd in a short timo answer j was returned that young Stewart was f heir lo nu entailed lortuno amounting , to :.a,onu,00 in gold, deposited iu tho Hank of London, and coital lo about J $77,000,000 iu American currency. S This fori into ha been lying in tho bank n for some six generations, nnd Itns thus increased to its present vail proportion-. Young Stewart's identify as tho lo Lnl heir to this vnt poscsion tins been lived beyond doubt, nnd ho will ro-' echo the Hist installment of about f.'J, 000,000 during (ho present mouth. What efloct tlto sudden possession of such Immense wealth will hnvo upon iiie iiiimi.imi cnnracieroi a young, un educated nnd iuoxperoiiccd boy tcmains lo be seen. Stewart appears to have a laru'o sharo of sturdy common sense, a well-balanced though uneducated mind, and considerable natural shrowdnc., and If ho is fortunate enough to cscnpo tho wiles of (ho human sharks who will be nllructcd by the glitter of his gold, maysoon loam to use it for tho benefit of his fellow-man and thu further enrich ment of himself. Minnicti lias fur nished young Stewart with n traveling companion, a shrewd nnd talented young railroad engineer, named John-, hton, whoso kiiQwIcdgo ol tho ways of tlto world will bo a safeguard against tho temptations of designing persons. A Si:.iiiu.i: film- Somo writer, to us unknown, tells this story of tier i Twenty years ago a young man who had paid attention to a bright, street girl, for a lonj; timo' without making anything thnt wns oven a second cou sin to a proposal, was stnitled ono evc-f ntng by tho Atirptlon.

Ho would join tho club the, next day. Ho tried to Bleep, bnt couldn't. He didn't quite liko the turn things had Ink n. The fig tiro plagued him. If lie was n mocking-bird, who was thu red-breast ho was keeping away from such n fitting partner? "At any rate, one thing is certain, Kdna is smart, nnd she is pretty," ho said lo himself, "mid sho menus business." Tho next morning Itobert went to tho count ing-room. It wns n long day, Husitiess had dingged. Everybody wns pro-occupied, hurried, crotH. Hh wns glad to go homo, only it wasn't homo. He took a book, but found him self irvlnir to read tho coals in tho grate mid figures on tho wall Instead of the page. He throw himself on tho lounuo, but it wns dreadful dull. Ho 'stood it for n while and thou put on his hat and walked down to tho widow Crnigtc's. Ho slopped up-to tho door ns usual, but Edna wns engnged. Ho asked to have tier called. It Bccined a month before she onmo down. At last she appeared. IIu aroso from lds.JC.at, nml met hor in tho middle of tho room, and' said : "Edna, I hnvo como hero to night on business, I am tirod of being your mocking-bird, and wont to bo your red breast j will you bo my wjfo ?'' "When do you say?" snid Edna, tier face suffused with blushes. "Soon as I can mko a nest" Robert replied.
