A RED MITTEN. BY R. C. DUNHAM. iE Hn L It was the afternoon of a clear, sharp January day of 1861, and the company numbered fally two hundred; there were men and women, boys and girls, flying and circling about, in masses, singly, by dozens and by twos and threes, over the frozen surface of the beautiful Silver lake, in Rockdale, a suburb of the flourishing city of B—. New England is dotted with these small bodies of water, and it is astounding to recount what a surprising number bear the name of Silver. And so, on Silver lake, this goodly company was disporting itself with all the galety and zest the keen bracing air and exhilarating sport combined to produce. Among the crowd were many lads and lassies, who imagined they were fond of skating, and came to Silver lake for no other reagon. It was singular, too, to note how much more grace- fully the “outward roll” backward or forward could be accomplished by joining hands, or being linked together bya walking-stick. Those sticks proved. in many instances, no non- conductors to the sympathetic thrill that per- vaded the magnets at either end. The positive and negative conditions were fally realized in the case of brawny John Horton and rosy-cheeked Abbie Latham, the daughter of the ‘Squire. She, with her plump, comely figure, and fresh, handsome face, lit up by apair of langhing blue eyes, could have led awkward John, on or off skates, anywhere, with an apron string or a thread for a conductor. Not so with John. He could lead her nowhere: and the more the girl could balk and tantalize him, the more she seemed to enjoy the skating and his company. Many a ludicrous figure he cut, and many an awkward fall heendured by her sudden and unaccountable turns and. shiftings, and her mirth and glee were at the Le ey at John’s re- peated failures to follow her difficult and tortu- cus windings. John was overgrown and mas- sive, his twenty years of existence not pening yet served to properly knit togetner and roun out the proportions of his rame. She was lithe and quick, and as graceful as she was skillful in the use of skates. Apart from the throng, this atternoon, John espied a little red mitten lying on the ice, where it had been ii + reas one of the numer- ous children. iiss Abbie saw it, too, and as John, by one of his graceful movements,essayed te stoop and capture the article, she ref to release his hand; but, just-as he bent forward, she gave a wicked pull, and John, unbalanced, was sent sprawling a rod or two beyond. A peal of silvery laughter was her sympathetic | comment, as with a fal curve she turned and caught the tiny thing in her hand. John blushed at his awkwardness, and held out his hand to receive the mitten. But the captor only held it before him, and mtly moved away. “Won't you give it to me?” he asked. “I will find the owner.” “I can find the owner more easily than you. T can't trust you; you would fall and crush the poor thing in trying to deliver it.” And she saucily laughed again. “You made me fall,” said John, in a grieved tone. **You are always doing these things. If I skated more and studied less, I’d soon be as much an adept as your frie Joe Staples, rt ‘Wild Wave,” her chief at- t, whom you are always praising. ou? Ha, ha, ha! As fal as Joe Staples?” And the hilarity of the young maiden made John Horton’s sluggish blood course through his veins till his face was as red as the scarlet kerchief that encircied his neck. All the rest of that afternoon John wasgloomy and silent. He moved around mechanically, or rather, automatically, and his companion con- cluded to serve no more tricks upon him. The sport finished, the two wended-their way tothe house of Mr. Latham, John’s fair com- panion failing to rally him into anything like conversation. He answered her only in mono- syllabies and seemed morose and preoccupied. As he was about to take his leave, John sai seriously, and a little sarcastically, “Abbie, I'm going back to college to-morrow, and I hope you will enjoy the rest of the skating season in companionship more graceful than mine. “*{ hope 1 shall,” replied she in the same tone. “You must feel bad about something; perhaps it's the mitten; you had better take it, no, not now—I won't give it up. If I ever think enough of you to surrender it, Pl send it to you by express.” And then she smiled on John with rare sweet- ness, but John had seen that smile before, and | felt she was only mocking him. So with a sol- emn good night, he buttoned his coat close to his chin, and with hands resolutely thrust into his pockets, turned homeward, resolved to waste no more time with skating girls, who Judged young men by the dexterity they éxhib- ited in handling their heeis. I. Among the earliest volunteer regiments that lert for the seat of war in the summer of 1861, was the —th Massachusetts, with Lieut. John Horton as an officer of Company B. Like hua- dreds of others he abandoned his books for the sword, and had passed nights and days in study and drill, to fit himself for his new position. It is said to treat of the vieissitudes of | Horton enjoyed the reputation among his fel- lows of being rather an anchorite. He was retl- cent, sometimes gloomy, and although he per- formed his duties acceptably, he had thus far failed to show any distinguis ing qualities for a military career. He joined in few of the cam pleasures, and when he was not on duty, read. ing or stadying, was sure to be seen in abstract thought, walking among the streets of the camp, or in the region of country immediately around. Christmas and New Year in emp formed oneof the brightest seasons to the hard- worked soldier in all the years of the Rebellion. Though the quantity of useful and useless arti- cles dispatched from home was at all times great, the bulk of contributions arriving in camp at this festive season sorely tried the carrying ca- peeks of all engaged in supplying the army at the front. And the occasions of opening the boxes and bundles among both officers and pri- -s Moments as a naturalist upon a newly-discovered insect, swith in and Rees o bei ed aon ra <= the le. gol r orgie out into the darkness, The evening was mild and calm, andthe dark- ness almost le. @ sound dis- penetrable. Scarcel. turbed the sleeping camps, and. as the enemy across the Potomac were belleved to intend no hostile demonstration, the utmost had not been taken to surprise. As Jack stood gazing into the darkness a suc- ceasion of flashes lit upthe gloom, and the sharp report of small arms ke the stillness. “Hello! here's for fun!” exclaimed Jack as he Tushed for his accoutrements. The long roll calted the men into line, and ina few moments the regiment was pi red to receive the enemy. Being one of the officers at hand. Lieutenant Horton was ordered by the colonel to go forward with a detail of men, and ascer- tain the true state of affairs. Our pickets were retreating, the firing being answered by stray shots irom theenemy; no judgment of their numbers could be formed, but our panic-stricken pickets reported them to be ten thousand strong, at least. Horton determined to keep cool, and ascertain for himself the number of the enemy. He had had little experience of fighting as yet, and his position was by no means @ pleasant one. In this manceuvre his excellent Judgment was proved, for after studying the situation as long as it was prudent he hastened to the Colonel and Informed htm that the force consisted of not more than a regiment of infan- try meving directly for the camp. A hot skirmish ensued, the fight lasted for an hour or two. The demonstration closed with the retreat of the enemy, on whose heels Lieut. Horton, whose fighting blood was up, hung with # tendency that astonished his brother offi- cers. Jack braved danger with a coolness that was amazing, and directed the fire of his men where it would do the most good. It was his ambition to capture somebody or rigeeuece and he did, a confederate .captain and two pri- vates, who were ‘‘surrounded” by himself and one of his soldiers. But Jack, fired by this suc- cess, rashly pressed ahead for more human plun- der, when he was laid low by a bullet through the shoulder. Iv. Jack Horton was the hero of that night. and was mentioned in the commander's report for his coolness, correct judgment and unflinching bravery. It needed’ just such an occasion as this to bring out what wasin the man; but Jack was modest, and didn’t presume he had done tore than he onght. His wound was a painful one, and in a few days he was on his way to Rockdale, where the reporta of his achievements had preceded him. Jack couldn't help feeling a little curious about how Miss Abbie would him if he chanced to meet her. He hadn't the remotest idea of calling on her, however. His t#me was his country’s, and all his leisure moments were . even in those invalid days, in the study of military tac- tics. He did not want to be made a lion of; did not pretend to resemble that noble animal in the least. So he stayed at home and studied his books. Just before his return to the army he attended 4 fair at Rockdale in aid ot the soldiers. The young ladies were the principal attractions at his, as at all faire; and among the young ladies, none were more’attractive than Miss Abbie Lat- ham. She drove a remarkably successful busi- ness at the flower stand, one of her principal patrons being Mr. Joseph Staples, who pur- chased at least half her stock, and distributed it with a lavish hand. He had not gone to war, but had, at least, and without compulsion, hired asubstitute. His patriotism was ardent. as he assured Miss Abbie, but there were to him other glorious attractions nearer home. Certainly, Lieutenant Horton could but Pay his respects to Miss Abble. His face was paler. and his form had become more trim and manly than when shelast saw him. His features, Abbie noticed, bore an expression of sadness and suffering; he moved without awkwardness, and ail the young ladies declared him to be the handsomest soldier in the hall. He won the sword that was voted for, on this occasion, as he deserved to. Jack's heart throbbed a little as he met the gaze of theYoung lady; but if he felt any emotion, it must have been slight; she was very busy with her customers, and espec- ially with her wholesale patron, Mr. Staples; yet. as the lieutenant bade her good evening and turned away, he saw her eyes droop anda faint blush steal over her cheek. For two old friensls. so long separated, the meeting was de- cidediy cold and formal, and Jack felt chilled to the marrow. Vs In ihe stirring events of the next two years Horton bore his full share—at Fredericksburg, Chancellorsyille, Antietam, Gettysburg, the Wilderness, down to Cold Harbor, where at the head of his regiment he fell desperately wounded in the terrible and unsuccessful assault on that stronghold. He was conveyed to the hospital at Wash- ingten in a seemingly hopeless condition, with several wounds, each of which was dangerous. The nurses moved among the wouaded men like angels of mercy. Some of the soldiers lay in a stupor, some were raving in delirium, and others dying in agony. For days Horton’s life hung ona thread, his fevered brain mer- cifully rendering him unconscious of suffering. As he awoke one morning, a soft and gentle- hand was soothing his brow, when the Samp ness indicated that the fever was broken. He tried to open his eyes, but was too weak; speak he cculd not; and many hours passed before he could discern what was around him. Since the night of the Cold Harbor fight his life had been ablank. He remembered nothing. And now he saw before him the physician, and the nurse with a sweet, pale face, that looked famillar, but he could not recall the name of its owne! Again trying to speak, the surgeon kindly whis- pered, “Keep pertectiy quiet, and all will be well,” and the female attendant, at his motion, withdrew. The next morning his dim vision discerned the same pale and anxious face; and a gleam of wondering inquiry passed over his countenance as he gazed upon’ hi At last he feebly whis- ‘red: “Where am 1?” “In the hospital and with friends,” she gently answered.

The evening was of course most enjoyable, for nearly every | one had received from home some gift or token to remind him of a mother, sister or sweetheart, sometimes of all three. Ho: ton was present, cool, gloomy and indif- ferent. He didnot expect any present. His family was scattered, and many of those nearest to him to whose loving sympathy he would naturally turn at this time had passed away. He did not feel ina sentimental or sym- pathetic mood, and yet no particle of envy en- tered his mind in witnessing the enjoyment of others. As the major held up a small paper box, however, and called out “Lieut. John W. Horton,” the latter started and felt his face aglow in an instant. He took the parcel and in spite of entreaties, in which not a few jokes were cracked at ‘his expense, placed it in his pocket till the conclusion of the festivities, when he retired to the comfortable quarters he shared with Lieut. Carter. Lieutenant Horton was puzzled and curious. After divesting himself of his overcoat he sat down, placed the box on the table, and, with his companion, lighted the solacit dudeen, determined to approach unravel the my: as became a il~ osopher. “Carter got decidedly impatient before even the outer wrappings were Temoved, roceedings with weighty here mentar eae bes shook — the xa little red mitten snu; wrapped in a piece of white tissue f No Beto or ex: planation appeared, and Horton met his com- panton’s gaze with a look in which were pic- tured at least haif a dozen of the emotions dist aiTect the hu:nan mind, the principal one being surprise.

He improved won- derfully under her care, and one bright morn- ing occurred the last conversation we shall re- cord in this romantic sketch. Misa Latham was sitting by the side of his cot, arranging a bouquet.

We have no evidence to show that the results he promises can be accom- plished, and my own experience has not pro- duced favorable results. Ata recent meeting of the New York surgical society, Dr. Yale read. a report on the use of phenic acid in Bellevue, which was rather rose-colored. but a discussion was aroused in which several surgeons gave strongly unfavorable opinions.” “My experience in its use,” sald Dr. Lervy M. Yale, “has been confined to so-called septic fevers with high temperature; I have never seen any reason for re the treatment on tumors. Imight add that I do not believe that it is in any sense the panacea which Dr. Declat makes out, but in cases where other well-recognized plans of treatment have failed, it is proper to give it atrial. I have known enough cases to make it a justiflable plan of treatment inscases of emergency.” Dr. Robert F.
