BY JUNIUS A# '"i f * A lieutenant was promenading in uniform one day, and approach«) a untear on «entry, who challenged with, “Unit! Who cornea there!” about the time that General Grant had os- Burned command of the Union ar mica, a detach meat of cat airj' waan,apc^^nRCRU‘ < tiously toward the northern defenses of Richmond. It was in advance of a much larger body of troops, whose main object was to lilierate the Union prisoners, and to de stroy the public defenses c f the Confeder ate capital. They believed that they might do this, for they hud trustworthy informa lion that the city was defended by only a few thousand militia. Colonel Ixivell, who was at the head of the detachment, had high hopes of a brill- | iant achievement, snd was proud to l»e in the van of the expeditiou, from which great results were anticipated. lie was felicitating himself on the fresh laurels be might gather—an experienced soldier sel- I dom thinks of defeat—when a volley of ' musketry from behind a knoll at the side of the road threw his men into confusion. I The enemy w.*.s not visible. The flash of 1 the guns seemed to come out of the earth. Although sharply on the lookout the little body was taken wholly by surprise. It wae evident that the hostile raid had been learned and reported by some spy. Ths cavalry had falleu into an ambuscade, ami in a few seconds two field pieces from a concealed (xisition opened on the wavering line and did considerable havoc. The colonel saw several men, one of them a captain, reel in their saddles, and that the confusion was approaching a panic, natural enough, because the troops knew uot, so sudden was the attack, where to charge. The shots were rapidly taking effect; a rout was threatened. Lovell was trying to rally his command, when hi« horse plunged wildly forward, nearly un seating him, and dashing toward a bit of wood iiulf a mile away. At the same time he felt a dull ¡lain in the calf of his leg, which made him think he had been struck, ami that perhaps th^ same bullet had wounded the spirited animal he bestrode, lie could no longer control the horse, which ran furiously, ami, when near the wood, stumbled ami fell, the colonel having bare ly time to disengage himself, and so avoid serious injury. As it was, he was «tanned, his head striking the ground with much force. How long he remained unconscious he could not tell. But as soon as he recovered his wits he found bis poor beast dead—he had been «hot in a vital part—and that a »mil hadpier<ed the lower portion of his own leg. Albeit but a flesh wound it felt very sore, and prevented him from walk ing. There were no signs of the fight be yond the apparently lifeless bodies of a number of burses ami men descried in the dim distance. He heard, too, At intervals, some dropping shots, and fearing that he might be captured—be had a horror of capt ure, having read such distressing ac counts of Union prisoners at Richmond and elsewhere—he himself to a clump of trees to await the protection of the night before determining on further action. If he wanted to get back to the Union tines it behooved him to be ia marching order, ami couBwqucnUy to look after bU maimed limb. Having had considerable experience with wounds during the war, be bathed bis leg in a rivulet and bound it up with his handkerchief, <hich be tore A Mammoth Brigade. One day a gentleman, not connected ith tho army, was riding to overtake Ijrwia’ Kentucky brigade, then serving ns mounted infantry, ami operating between Augusta u nd Sawmnah, Ga., after Sher of btiighlrr. nA over with in/ hia hearty ba< paper*.
