There they stood for a ment looking each other in the face the second heir to the French crown and the scarred and bronzed of a score of battles Advancing the Prince grasped the old man's hand and conducting him to a seat spoke so kindly that the an's heart overflowed and he burst into at all acquainted with the long tears To those history of the conic dynasty er the kindness of the Prince nor

guard doing duty sentinel in the uniform of Capt Kuhn's company of ri- flep at Carlisle We do not know what name she enlisted under to protect the honor of her but her real name is Sophia Cryder and her residence only about a mile from this city She had been in Capt Kuan's company over a week is a plump lass of only sixteen years of age and had so completely un- herself that she could safely bid defiance to any one not acquainted with her to detect her How she shirked an examination which is said to be made with great strictness by tlie medical men at Camp Curtin we are not informed She is as
