From the Atlantic Monthly.

1ITTM STiRi,ICIBT. It was soon after the first of thpse terrible

Wilderness-'battles of last -spring that Little Starlight made his first appearance among us.

Now Jiajeyott any idesTwho Liftle Starlight was I f ye iy probably, ftom his romantic name^ you picture him to yourself as a pretty boy—al beautiful Young America, with clustering curls, and I he relevant blooming precocity of face and form,, Sqtijjngiof Jhe kind-s Qur Little Star-light was a negro urchin, extremely small for his age—which might hare been fifteen could we have had ft' dirle to recRbrf fromMnrid as black as the'acfe-dryjiaacs, wheff "the ace of spades ia exc^lsively black and shiny.

Wlierc-he came from, who he-belonged to, how he came among us, we never exactly knew. He was^t Sort of masculine Topsy, and probably

""gVojwtid." sosjriejw1i;i|y'<e t n tbe vicinity of our bivouac. On the' morning after the battle he had been found in our lines, strutting about the camp in a very nonchalant way, with a. quick, pbsjMiwgveye forU'verything lia faw. .His ap-|i^arance was comical \R, the extreme. - Upon his ebon head, and entirely concealing his crisp wool, •watfja.unlily placed a span-new artillery cafV>wnf$Kfce lifid prooaTfly found on the field. He bad fastened to the right shoulder of his ragged coat—a: swallow^ailed blue of unknown antiquity—an ihimensls fpaulet, probably plun-dered from,tl%^f^g^^lT6oine ofllcer^ while

,» silkqu, sashpflflaring ifrimson. was twined round his walit-iH^rtuiariner'at once striking and barbaric, with;* Jong end 'that trailed be­hind like the gaudy tail or some variegated tr.opicb'u-d.i His .trowsers-^we will skip them ; ^etit;sumce'1o>88y'-i that they wore unffiebtioa-•We ^o tHSihsPdi^;^1*' ' ' ' -' •*-, , ,^omo cfluld.teU how the liltle fellow got Into thecamp,an<Mi& wouldn't tell hlmself^-T6^ tjpi6keS €_ttd sekitries' swote .prodigiously ^jfa$M$a$t$bj^^s^t^tem, ^>'wo WW com-^ll^^iekiUeimy'wt'ff ot Wa pirWirance re--il^n*1(lfiB0lv*«ft!'"4,l^ftTS""?*^> ,"-< v ' r ' '.»"*

one of the capacious pockets Of his tattered cpn£ a sorry looking pigeon, still alive, which, before: we could guess his intention, the proceeded id put to death in a very summary manner. Nip* ping the head of the bird between bis fingei-and thumb, he twirled the body around, in the air till it fell to tbevground, completely twisted from tbe head, which remained In his hand,. -

''What are you doing that forf I exclainje'dl somewhat horrified at what I saw, ns were the rest of the "Court."

Tlie little fuljow threw away the.pigeon's head without answering, picked up the body, and laid it at my feet, with a "Yah! yah I" from which I judged«that itTyas meant ns a present for my breakfast.

"Well, what is the decision of the Court ?"— said I laughing, and turning to the 3!ajor.

"I really do not know." was the reply.— "Ask the monkey if he will fight find which side he favors."

I put the question. "De Union all de time, shore!" was the en­

thusiastic reply. "What can you do ?" I asked. The little fellow cast a comprehensive glance

around him in every direction, as if he could do any and every thing under llie sun, and was merely puzzled upon which u> try his hand for an outset. l • '

Atlengthbiseye caught sight of a kettle-drum which was taking ah airing a short distance olf, and with a guffaw of delight bo ran toward it. Quick as thought the strap was over his shoul­der, the sticks Were in his hand, and throwing back his head with a gesture of pride^ he rolled off the reveille with the flourish and accuracy of a ma8tt>F.

"Bravo V cried "Captain Allen. "You're the man we want Why not have blm drnm for our company ?'' he added, turning to ma— "Johnny went into the hospital day before yesterday,'and we have had hut little music since." - <

**Anexc*Uen^d«al"6ttidLj - .., . 'The Major also agreed; and Starlight, to his

infinite satisfaction, was forthwith installed as second, dr^mmer-bpy, Company C, —th New Infantry.

Hifl name—»by which lie was altogether known among as—originated, at the suggestion F of oho of the officers, in the wonderfully starry aspect of the heavens on the night preceding the early morning of his "capture."

He was a fitvorite in the company, and a standingjoke wiii} \hq jtegiment, in a single day* Ni6a& oquki surpass. Jiiinoalhe.drum^ and he never complained, of too much work.' We made fiift^sff ffl^ieliftnOrbughiy in the river, nnd then presented hiui.wjilh a. genuine uniform, of,.which.he appeared.na proud as a young peacock of her Bprouting tail.

Upon briefer ncquaintuncel with Starlight I slmnld have smiled at the serio-comic manner in which these sentiments Were enunciated; but, as it wins, I shuddered a4 .the; intensity of passion which lurked in his tohes. . ' /Ami through nil those battles, and rapid marches and counter-niarcues,j with which Gen. Grant terrified and confused the rebel foe, from the Rapidan to the walls of Richmond, Little Starlight conducted himself with sterling credit^ winning golden opinions from aJL and, upon one occasion a hearty handtshake from the General of our division. •, • ,,.

It was, however, at the severe skirmish on our left, immediately following- our general repulse from the rebel works, and shortly before the transfer of our army to tbe south bank of the James, that tbe part which Starlight played in the great drama was to assume a truly-tragic phase.

The enemy's skirmishers and ours were hotly engaged, and tbe fight bid fair to be bloody, if brief. I was immediately in tbe rear of the. •regiment, which was In reservc-busy. with.Wip wounded; and Starlight was-ihoppingfabOu,^

Vienna has been stirred up* lately,, byj the comical result of a strange love.»tory. Itjoems that in the house of one Kerr Kuhne, a.teacher of languages,. Dr. Kant, a young lawyer, happen­ed to make the acquaintance of a lady,burdened : with some property and thirty,years., -.The la­dy evinced a particular Interest In the,yaung« shy, andrathervabashedmanoflaw.; She made love^to him, in fact, very alrongly^&jpejinad-ed him to visit ber at her bouse.

Crtijjm still gazing, as though petHfla^Wfth astonfshment. I glanced at (ha serpenPWoaHi- , somp bead and saw its bright, deadly* "^J*s, watching for fhb least' sfgh oflife id itaTprey.— ITow, the reptile loosened ffe fold on m^'airnl a hair's breadth, and now a little more, titi(I!:ilalf ari'incb, or space separated ttiy arm andiWniit-tled skin. I.could hate wbipped'out rhy^liaiid, but dared nor take ihe risk. Atomtfibf-'li&e dragged themselves into ages, and a'mldtite s,eemed eternity itseff! The second fold- waa removed entirely, and the next one was «asifig. Should I dash away now, or wait a more faTor-able movement? I decided upon the former; and witli lightning Speed I bounded a'way. to­ward Grant, the crack of whose piece I heard at the same instant. For the first time- to-my fife I was thoroughly overcome; and sinking down, I remained in a semi-corfscious^Sfte-for several minutes.

When I fully recovered, Grant ancfThe* over­joyed negroes held me up,, and pointed out ths boa, who was stift writhing m his death aginnef. I shuddered' as I looked upon the effects of^his tremendous dying strength. Foryaro%"alfotilid where he lay, grass and bushes arid sapliBgs, and in fact everything except the more1 fully grown trees, were cut clean off, as though1-tbey had been trimmed with ah immebse-acythtt— This monster, when measured, was'flfty^jne feet two inches aud a half in extreme length, while round the thickest portion of blsvbedy, the girth was nearly three feet, thus proving, I believe, to be the largest serpent that was ever authentically heard of.
