Sharpshooting with a Fiavor of Mal jco in it—A Tragic Sequeltoa Soldier's Enmity. From the Philadelphia Times. In the spring of 1864 Gen. Crook's di- vision, of which I was a member, was or- dered to strike tents and leave the great Kanawha Valley to join Gen. Hunter’s army in his campaign down the Shenan. doah valley to Lynchburg. A fow weeks later wo were near Staunton, enjoying a brisk skirmish with the enemy. From that day on I was duly assigned to the position of scout and_sharpshooter, and found my post of duty in the extreme skirmish line, where I could peck at the southerners at my will, and without be- ing molested in my work by some over- knowing officer in charge, who simply ever knowa. I called the doctors again, and after several woeks, they left me a cripple on crutches for life, as they said. met a friend and told him my case, and ga said Hop Bitters had cured him and would cure me. Ihooped at him, but he was 8o earnest 1 was induced to use them again. In loss than four weeks I throw away my crutches and went to work light- 1y and kept on using the bitters for five woeks, until I became as well as any man living, and have been so for six years since, Italso cured my wife, who had been so for years; and has kept her and my children, well and hearty with from to to three bottles per year. There is no need to be sick at all if thesebitters are used. J. J. Berk.

Comly was only too well aware of the fact that he had made no mistake in selecting me for the posi- tion, v I remember the skirmish before Staun- ton. I recall how I chased a ‘“‘reb.” through fields and over fences for two miles, and how at last he sought refuge inside a little stone milk-house right close to the main pike; how, as I was climbing a seven-rail fence to get at the fellow, my heayy knapsack oveabalanced my littla frail ‘body, and down I tumbled—hoad first; how the ‘‘reb.,” peeping through the halfopen door, saw_ the sad fix I was in, but instead of sticking his bayonet into me, as I expected he would, took to his heels onco more and skedaddled clear out of sight and reach, 1t was in the skirmish before Staunton, where the bullets scratched off the bark of every troe that I saw fit to dodge be- hind, that I became couvinced that some individual “‘reb” had a special purpose in taking my life, But who could be the man, mdy what could be his object in se- locting me for his victim? 1 watched for him high and low, but faiied to discover the bullets of the mysterious rifle-man his. whereabouts, though all the while| S0 b SI hod aver i An exollent appatisiog tenie_of eyulaia Savor, now T ) L. o g ot Sl o ey T T 21 oo R AT J.

My eyes descied the smoke of & gun some 200 yards to the right of my front, and [ had just time to dodge behind m{ tree when a bullet came w)’xlxzzing by, kdocking off a piece of bark within a few inches of my face. Then as I looked out to see who it was shootiug at me I discovered a tall, heavy set man, wearing a big slouch hat, sneaking behind a tree to open on me again, and he did. He fired at me again | like me for his victim! ~‘“It's “A BAD PIRCE OF BUSINESS,"” said he, in a serious tone, ‘‘and Iean’t for the life of me understand it. It is ovidently plain that he has marked you as his own, and that as long as he can find you he is going to shoot at you.” Black thought it would be advisable, under the circumstances, for me to quit the akirmish line and return to the main body of the army, but 1 laughed at the idea, and expressed the determinat II”“Q u{; yoar s estimated to reach €3, THHEEAE 1§ Tebarmed, e whols ADRS stick to the skirmish line while life lasted | Jjoranld oounty proposes to siip 309,000 | tam becomes disordered and the fol- in spite of the man with the white slouch | bushels of erain this coming fall and winter, aat 3 . hat. ““Then,” said Black, *‘let's stick | Milwaukes parties will erect a brewery in lowing mptors will follow: close together, and whenever ono of us corners the ‘son of a gun,” we'll both join in to make it most interesting hot for him.” The next day was a fearfully warm one all around. Gen. Hunter had fooled his opportunities away until the foo had am- plo time to be re-inforced from the army about Richmond and Petersburg. The result was wo failed to capeure Lynch- burg. Daylight had no sooner made its appearance before the advance guard of the Confederate army opened fire on us, In & moment our rear was protected by a line of skirmishers, with Black and my- self at our favorite post [of duty, and the very first Southerner that my eyes fell on was no other than the man with the white slouch hat. I pointed him out to Black and then we fired at the fellow with a vehemence, but with the usual ef- foct. Hoa, in return, devoted his sole at- tention to me, never bothering Black, though we were only some twenty feet apart. The enemy’s advance line pushed us closely and hotly all day long, and when darkness came both Black Anrfl felt a brief relief, as it at last gave us an op- portunity to eat a morsel of dough—the only article of food left us. Our forces kept up the retreat all through the night, Fences were burned along the roadway, 80 a8 to keep the men wide awake and in line, yet in spite of this precaution men here and there, completely played out from overwork and hnnEar, would drop out of line only to be taken as prisoners by the (lonfederates, who followed dan. geroull{ close at our heels. Daylight had hardly set in before the enemy were on our rear. Again the skir- mishers were lot loose to hold them at bay, while the main body of our troops marched on in quick retreat. It was near 9 o'clock before Black and I caught sight of our man, but we discovered him last. We found him in our rear front ecking away at me for dear life. “Lot's try and get better acquainted with him,” said Black. “‘How?" I asked. “‘Lot's try to pick up a handkerchief flirtation with him?” and with the words Black pulled out a white handkerchief and waved it in the air. But he answered him only with a bullet. *‘Suppose you try him, Jeff.” “All right.” And out went my hand- kerchief 1o the breeze. “Hello! Herecognizes you,” exclaim] ed Black.] Sure enough the 'fellow was standin, out from behind his tree waving a re handkerchief in answer to my signal. ¢‘f'he son-of-a-gun,” exclaimed Black. ““He would not notice me, but I will no- and again, and every time his \)ullul:uvmm him all the same,” and as he spoke skinned the bark of the very trees behind which I sought shelter. After the skirm- ish was over I told some of my comrades of the sharp-shooter who took suck inter- est in picking me out during the noon for his especial enjoyment, but the boys only laughed at my expense, and said that I only imagined it to he brought up his rifle and fired at our man, who was still standing a fow feet from his iree, signalizing to me with wild delight. But Black miesed as usuval after- | {hough the shot brought the fellow to {ime, as he quickly dedged behind his tree, Just before sunset therecameabrief lull bo so—that no sharp-shooter was uch & | ver the sceno of action. _We had reach- fool as to WAIST HI§ POWDER on a boy of my diminutive form, The next dsy we advanced on Lexing- ton, and before we had made much pro- gress in our journey the enemy opened a with the white siouch hat standing be- ed a piece of natural fortified ground,and our commander-in-chief concluded it best to show fight, 8o as to give the trains and heavy artillery a chance to get out of reach of the enemy. The main body of our troops lay in ambush behind a long ridge of ground. The enemy was advanc- ing slowly and steadily just on the other go of the ridge. It was found necessa- to 'fl'pl:i two or three skirmishers on @ top of the ridge, so as to watch the movements of the enemy. But the top of the ridge was a mighty risky position for anyone, as there were only three trees within a distance of 100 rods, and not one of those was over a foot in di- tween two trees, coolly firing away at | pmetar. This was rather thin shelter for me, Idonot know why it was, but in that moment there crept an awful terror over m, marked and that & human being was actually thirsting for my life's blood. But the more uneasy I felt over the ter- rible discovery I had made the more determined lriaunmn to make things as hot as possible before the mysterious man with the white slouch hat got his work in on me. From that time on I became marvelously reckless and desper- ate. I folt that my life was doomed— that it was & question of a foew days ere I would be called away, and that I might as well make my life glorious during its brief earthly existence. I entered the conflict with a renewed vigor—witha deeper and bitter vim, I loaded my gun and fired with a quickness that was ing, and my aim seemed to be far ve than ever before. My fellow-skirmishers noticed the sudden change that had come over me, though I dia not see fit to explain matters, but went right on, rushing into danger and what seemed certain death at every given opportunity, e reached Lexington that night, after having enjoyed a spirited skirmish all through the afternoon. The follow- ing morning found us on the road to Lynchburg atan early hour. But we had not gone far on our way before the enemy opened on us, and & hot skirmish followed. It was on the extreme line of advance, and the man on my right was a ular chum of mine. John Black, who, by the way was only 19 years old (three years my senior), but a per- fect dare-devil of asoldier. After we had been akirmishing about an hour, Black yelled out to me: “Say, Jeff!” “Well, what?"” soul as L realized that Iwas|g " a boy in blue within the reach of the 10,00 guns, But Col. Comley called two volunteers to climb the ridgs and watoh the enemy, and the call was hardly made before Blacgk and T were on our feet, and a moment later we were on tep of the ridge. We found the sharpshoot- ers just below us, within a hundred rods and just beyond them the enemy were moving through field and wood. It was a glorious sight. But somehow it did not seem 80 glorious when fifty or more of the sharpshooters below us cpened fire, The way we hugged those apple trees was a_caution, and the way the bullets pliyed fon the trees was anything but agreeablo. It was close quarters—too close even for such reckless dare-devlls as wo had the reputation of being. Just sure as one of us stepped from behind his respective tree to fire the very air would be resonant with bullets, ‘We had held our position some twenty minutes, expecting every moment to get artosian pattern, ot the Black Hills, WESTERN NEWS, W.ATCE The Kidneys.
