As he uttered the words, the young officer waved his hat courteously, and turned on his heel. He had scarcely done so when one of the men a few rods below me sent a bullet whis- tling over his head. Sharply reproving the sentinel for his unprovoked attack, I soon quieted the remainder of the line ; and the silent river continued to flow between the armies, undisturbed by any warl...ike sounds.
