A Michigan reglment iu reserve Just
outnldo lite fight, was opened on by
six fk-hl-plcct-s m plain sight. The
tiring was rapid ami lusted for half
an hour, and yet no man In tho regi
ment ws even wounded. Maswachu
setbJ troop,1, advancing In tlio woods,
fought against cannon mounted on an
earthwork for fmly twenty minutes
and yet. tilt ther loss win from the
musketry. On this occn.shm no less
than 200 round shot and shell wero
utterly wuU-d. '
During the Kunday hts nt
Dulfjj Hun, ti full battery posted on

kept up a contlnnou and rapid fire
ou a highway threc-quartewof a mllo

wero marching an they went Into ac

shell could bo ftotn to strike, and out
eldo of tearing the cover elf an army

two, no tlamage was done.
At l'alr (Jaks the arilllery firo was

li- e hud a cpluntlld position for his
artillery at 1'rcdericsburg, yet the
L'liion troops swept forward unmlnd-
fulxif the fire until they reached the
point where the Confederate Infantry
could -begin worlt. fcUicll-- exploded
in the nir or beyond the line, round
shot took men singly, and no great
damage was dono until grapo and
canister came Into ilay. Tho Union
guns on tho other bank of tho river,
numbering at least one hundred and
and fifty, boomed away for sovcral
hours tit the town and at Lee's troops
above, yet they did not cripple the
enemy as much as the lire from a
single Infantry regiment.
At Savago station, when McClellan
was changing base, a Union batteyy
was charged by a Confederate regi
ment. They came across an oxu
field, In plain view and on level
ground, with six guns playing nway
on them, yet they captured the bat
tery with a loss of only, eleven men
killed, and four of those were killed
by ono sheu. A Colon regiment ral
lied on the guns, fought over them
hand-to hand and captured then., and
In ten minutes each regiment Jost
one hundred men.
It is popularly supposed to be a for
lorn hope when men rush forward on
a battery, but any old soldier would
take Jus chances thero sooner than
trying to dislodge infantry from 'a
stout rail fence. At second Bull Run
tho writer's regiment swept forward
to capture some field pieces which
bad got their range down fine and
were creating considerable : havoc.
There werefour cannon, and they cov
ered about the same front that the
advancing regiment did.'- They used
sliell at first against us, and In twelve
or more rounds we lost onlv three
men. They then changed to grape
and canister, and before rcaehlug the
guns our total loss vns fifteen men.
We marched square at the cannon,
preserved a good front, and the artill
erists could not have had a better
chance. "Had weiieen advancing on
one hundred infantry behind a fence
or in rifle-pJta our loss wotjld. liavo
p,een ioar tme$ as greaj.
At Gettysburg more than 400 can-.
nqn belched away, for hoirrs shaking
the ground as with an earthquake,
but. the losg in killed and wounded
Was not as great as that Inflicted by a
brigade Sjn action. More than 4OO
Confederate fteld-pieces were turned
on Kound Top for two Ions hoursanq
yet infantry rested here and munch
ed their hard-taclralniost as coolly as
in camp. When Leo "retreated and
Sheridan pursued hU wagon-train
over tho mountain roads, the rear
guard of the Confederates planted two
ueiu-pieces in the narrow road to
chock pursuit. They were well serv
ed, had plenty of ammunition, and
seemed to command tho entire ap
proach, but those guns were charged
and captured with tho tons or but
three men.
Tho flro of anlllcry U tloHtnietlvo
Only when it hits,, the same as infant
ry, but it I easier to shoot a man
with a musket than with a cannon.
A shell has boon known to blow
twelve men into fragments, but per
hapi twenty other nhetls were wasted
before that 0110 hit. A round-shot
may .crush two men as it plows
through a regiment, but it will take
no more . Grape and canister will
tto murderous work at short range,
but tlut range can only be had once
In n Whlhv and then pres-rved for
only two or three rounds.

By awl means, Joe, get marriod, if
you have a fair show. Don't stand
shivering on the bank, but pitch rite in
and stick your head under and shiver it

getting married than there is in eating
jieanuts. . Many a man has stood shiv

Remember, Joe, you hain't a saint your
self. D,o npt marry for beauty exclu
sively; beauty is like ice, awfully slip
pery, and thaws dreadfully easy. Don't
marry for luv, neither- lttv. ia like a
cooking stove, good for nothing when
fuel gives out. 'Rut let the mixture be
souto beauty, becomingly dressed, with
about two hundred and fifty dollars in
her pookot, a gude speller, handy and
neat in her house, plenty of gnde cense,
tuff constitution and by-laws, small feet,
a light step add to this sound teeth and
a'warm heart. The mixture will keep
in any climate, tfhd will not evaporate.
Don't marry for pedigree unless backed
by bank notes. A family with nothing
but pedigree generally lacks sense.

the fteps of the coach on a tour inves

four seats on the left-hand side, sat a
Chinaman well dressed in his national
costume, and beside him a full-blooded
negro woman, holding two child
ren iu her lap, while four others, un
der the charge of a Chinese servant,
rolled and tumbled over the seats and
down the aisles of the car. There
was nothing so peculiar in the appear
ance of either the man and wife, for
so the reporter found therrf to be; but
the 6ix children, the eldest of whom
was nine years of age, were the most
singular combination of negro and
Chinese Imaginable. Their hair was
crisp and curly; their skin very dark,
but the shape of their faces and tha
almond-shaped eyes proclaimed their
paternity too distinctly for any mis
take. They jabbered away w Itli their
father in his native tongue in the
most artless manner, while at the
same time they kept the passengers
in convulsions of laughter with con
tortions and grimaces which would
have done infinite credit to the stage
of negro minstrelsy. Tho reporter
ascertained that tho narrie of the
Chinaman 'was Hang Hang, .who
twelve years ego went a coolie to Cu

came enamored of a negro slave. He.
saved, enough to purchase her free-
