An incident oj the Late f'atnpai^n.—‘W9
have had related to us an incident fntm the
Soufhside, whioh shoira at the same time the
fidelity of the slave to his Southern master and
the cruelty ot his would be Yankee brother.
For many years the Petersburg railroad oompanj
has had in its employ, at Port Wathall junetion,
a most worthy and trusty old neg^o mao earned
Columbus When one of our artillery oompaniea
moved up from Petersburg this fa'thfujlold slave
volunteered his servioes to them, “to wait on hia
young maasas,” and wbeu the battle eame off the
old negro might be seen muking hia way OTcr Ihe
field where the shot and shell flew thiekest, ad*
ministering water to our wounded soldiera. Thia
noble oonduct commended the old negro to our
BoldierH, aud wfien they moved off tb^ carried
him with them to Drevrry’s Bluff Soon aftev
srnving there, the poof old ilave dieopvey^ that
he had left behind him a stocking full of silTer,
whieb he had been for years saving np li^m his
small earnings and started baek to get it, asanr-
ing our soldiers, who were trying to dissuade him
froai going back, '*neyer mind, maasas; I’ll aoon
be back to jine you '* The brave, honast old
negro eould not bear the idea of losing his money
and ventured back, but on approaching the plaee
the Yankees caugh^ him and hung him from the
limb of X treel His body was disooyered yeater*
day suspended from a tree, the victim of Yankee
malignity.—Richmond Examiner,
An Incident of the Battlei of the Soufhtide.—^
At the eommencement of this war Larken Estea
and his son James Jackson Eates, aged reepeotiTe>
ly 66 and 26 years, two highly respeotaUe o|ti*
aens of Anderson distriet, South OatoUna, wera
r^iding in that place and prosperous in bosineaa.
When the tocsin of war was sounded they relun-
teered in the 18th S. C. yoluntcers, and wera
soon on tlieir way to tbe theatre of war, in Vir«
ginia, to meet the ruthless invaders of ovr aoil.
They passed through all the battles toaght ia
Virginia On Friday last, in the battle near
Chester, Virginia, their regitnent was engaged,
when the son, James Jackitou Estes, was ahot
down while in the aJt of ohargiug the enemy’s
breastworks. Uis father seeing him fall, went to
assist him from the field, when he himself waa
also severely wounded. Tho father and son were
then both taken up and carricd to Chester and
laid side l\y side in the hotel. Tho father being
able to sit up, eat by tbe fide of his son, doing
all he could to relieve bis fuff^riugs, and on the
next niornins; that 8on, lyitii; prosttitG from the
wound he had recoived, dirvi in tlie sight and by
the sido of his wuundcoi ta !ier. The old man
expressed astronK hope that hisown wound might
not prove fatalj that he iui;;ht I'e t^pared to return
to his regiment to avent,*’ dcatli of his bob
and assist in dtiving the iuva^crt; from the South,
which then i,«ght enjiy once more liberty and
