A PLUCKY MULE, RUNNING THE GAUNTLET OF A CONFEDERATE CANNONADE. nnullns n Load or Ammunition Cmlrr Flro from ,Fort Smutcr and ISatterj- t npncr A Critical Moment Tho Last Sliot Safe. ) Sometimes tho mulo is railed upon for 4i nnxuu M-i itv, requiring qualities for w hich he does not generally receive cmlit. Tbo lines were iigutcning nbout Charleston when Admiral Dulilzrcn's fleet betrnn oirntint.Q in tho" harbor, and remfcrwl it practicable for me troops on suoro to advance with somo hopo of Kinpr nblo to hold points previously untenable. During tho night a detachment of the Tenth con dislodged a picket iost nn iuu iiw.-rii eiiu 01 .Morris island, and when daylight canto had thrown up quite a formid oblotH.vlTi:iing for a Held work. Butthopluco "as nuiim easy range or l-ort Sumter and Battery Wagner, and every Confederate gun that could Ihj brought to bear began to drop i hcll into tho llttlo earthwork. It was thought -, that nn attempt vro3 about to bo mado to j-- carry tho i.Iaco by nssault, and, whilo there were men enough to hold it, they weron little thort of ammunition. Tho only practicable road was a mile and a half of hard, smooth Mnd bca'!i, commanded from endoto end bv .1. r- r - l i J urn i.umeuiraio naileries. But there was a combination in the Federal camp that was equal to tho emergency; namely, n licet mulo and n plucky driver. Tho mulo is mentioned iirst, only liccauso ho has long slnco kicked his last kicl:, but th driver, if ho still survives, will acknowledge o ; that without tho mulo hocould not havoilone what he did. It may bo assumed that the mulo had a good feed of oats before ho wns called upon to run tho gauntlet, mid ossiblv the driver, too, may then have felt justified m fortifying tha inner man. Bo that no it may. jut before noon a fow boxes of ammu nition were thrown into tho lightest nvnilablo wagon, and, after looking tho harness over carefully, tho driver tool: his eat in the ikcl tor of tho saud hills. Tho mulo stood voth his estensivo ears raking aft mid a wicked gleam in his eye, no if the onts were beginning to riso into his brain. "Good-by, boys! Cup, mule!-' and the c.juipaso started down through tho dry sand (o tho hard level of the beach. .Mule thook his bead and executed a demi-volt when he tilt the damp sand under his feet, but dritcr sootLc.l liiiu with Vndcariug words. It had not not yet dawnt-d upon tho Confederates that tho expedition way intended for thoiellef of tho garrison. But presently tho gleam of intel ligence was indicated with a rush in tho sbapo of a shell from tho southeast angle of Sumter. It struck tho water fairly in h'no, ricocheted, and burst over in tho march; but it was tho signal for action. Up went tho whip, and tho mule gathered ' his mighty hind legs under him. For u mo mont it was uncertain whether ho wa3 going to kick or run, but n few remarks lrom the driver convinced him that thcro won de mand for forward movement, so ho "lit out for nil ho wss worth," At least thirty guns co.ttmn.uied that stretch of beech, mid tl'T pounded nwr.y a3 fast at they could bo flrou. Kow and then it shell would buret rather too near tho mulcV. earj for comfort, and ho would sheer . ' lontiy and try to make for homo. But tho l Vant driver plied tho lash, and held him to lui . ork. 'At length a ten inch shell tore up" tho beach and exploded so near that tho mulo was entirely demoralized; but not so his driver. Leaping down from his t,eat ho caught tho mulo by tho head, backed him rapidly round ouco or twice, and wns ofr again on tho keen jump lieforo tho gunners could get his rango as u fixed object. On ho went, and at last dashed into tho redoubt; but thcro was no shelter in it for tho mule. His ears waved conspicuously abovo tho low lying parallel, Tho ammunition boxes were tumbled out r.nceremouiourly, and themulo's noso pointci.' for homo! With tho lightened load and tho pro&peets of unlimited fodder, ho beat tho pre vious record. But tho Confederate artillerists were on their metal now. They had failed to stop tho supplies, but their hearts burned for revenge. Thoir shots now camo mora from tho rear, and beta wire freely offered with no takers, on whet tho result would bo should the mule have a fair chance to kick ten inch shell, as it were, "on tho fly." The crescendo scream of bholl chasing him up tho beach, lent wings to his hoels, mid ho fairly Hew toward tho sheltering sand hills. There vero only a few rods more to bo covered, when somo careful gunner mado a closo cal culation as to tho lengthening rouge, and pulled his lanyard almost in the nick of time. Tho hugo mai-s of iron struck tho beach, as it seemed to tho anxious spectators, exnetly be hind tho wagon, and tho next instant noth ing was to bo seen there but a cloud of whito smoko and brown sand. In an instant, how ever, thij floated away, and tho mulo was teen vigorously reducing to kindlim; wood what wns left of tho quartermaster's wagon. And tho driver, where is lie? "Well, ho wns apparently knocked over by tho o.-plosion, but ho got oa his feet in a moment, and, having cut tho traces, was on tho mule's back in another, waving his hat in response to tho cheers that rolled neross tho water from Yankee bluo jackets, from Confederate garrisons, and from tho dark bluo nasxs that crowned tho distant hand dines. It ia uppity that the driver's liamo has not been preserved, for his daring act certainly deserves recognition and reward. Perhaps ho recgived both, but tbo writer has licon un able to find mention of tho fact. Adrian Ilexford in American Magazine, Uool.s That Havo Helped Jfo. All tho articles which havo been written about "tho lnx)ks that havo helped me," tacitly assume that what helps mo will help' you, or that Brown, on learning where Jones got his mental provender, will order homo n feupply of tho eamc, and livo on it. Nothing can well lx further from tho truth. "Wher ever theso articles do not gratify a harmless vanity, thoy are interesting dimply as the literary experience of ono more or less ro spoctablo human being, and nothing more. Every man who loves books and reads l hem, and makes any good tiso of thern, rcatij in thp lino o his own tastes and tomjeruni"nt and pursuits. Ho i3 not, and for tho ma t jwrt rannot lw, helped by another man's Uk)1:s, tuppouing looks to bo anything mow tlum rejiertoriea of facts. All must, of course, go to tho ranio sources of information, or in other worth must consult tho Eanio books of reference, but every man who reads for cul ture, or for encouragement, or inspiration, or power, must chooo his own looks. Books that havo hcljxxl Brown may bo interesting to Jones, because ho loves Brown and likes to watch tho working of his mind; but they will not necessarily help Jones. In fact, tho tiiuo ho iont on them might lw tlmo utterly wnstad. unless there oxittvd tho clooest Mini- iarity in jmrsuiU and in clmructer betnven ttw nmdim.iYi York VaU ( AWnt Jtlndrd Clerk. 014 Udy (in ilru rtartj-Uow U thU I'er liM piwdur to lo uwilimlf CWrk.1 t inliMiwUjI QJ 'm a tea tyocafv' utM- i.wh utcul 15jflh, "Brat On."
