He acted -- with the impulse of a- - schoolboy. He was brave even to rashness and always at the front, like Prince Napoieon among the Znlus. That he did not, like that unfortunate youth, lose his life in the campaign was due rather to geed rock than to good man- agement. His first exploit was in a very brave action as Williamsburg, the ac- tion where Hancock won the sobriquet 'The Superb. 1st was a deed such as has immortalized some men. Several of Han- cock's guns, planted in an opening, had been ambuscaded asd all the gunners and supports killed or driven off. The Confederates had guns trained on the -- pot, but the duke took two companies of cavalry and dashed in. With his lit- tle band of troopers he circled the whole field in the face cf shell and musket shots at close range and only retired when he discovered that the captured guns had been hauled away and that the Confederates were nrotected by m- - trenchments. "A few days after that the duke dis- - J tinguished himself at the battle of , Gaines MilL That battle was fought on J the Federal side aidr the imaediate j direction of General Fitz-Joh- n Porter, j Porter's troops became so hard pressed ihas supports were sent in from die race : camps, among tiem the division of General SIecnraT in which.

Then the duke rode back in the face of a pitiless mus- ket fire across a leng, exposed space to headquarters for rernstractions. Having received them, he braved the dangers for the third rime and set the matter right. The stubborn battle of the Jer- seymen there in the center delayed the Confederate advance so long that Gen- eral Porter was able to save his army. "General Porter and General Butter-fiel- d, who commanded a division that day, often mentioned the gallantry of ! ' DCC T)E CT7ATtTRF.- g- the French princes at Gaines MrH, es- pecially the dake and his uncle, Prince de JoinviHfi. Another incident of that tattle it is -- well to recall in these times cf international rancor and jealousy. The battery attached to our division, was one of the most noted in the army. It was raised at Hobcken, X. J--, and was composed of German refugees. Captain Hexamer, tha commander, was d exile from Baden who had risen is IS4S with the universal movement gainst royalty. The battery was led into action at Gaines 3tIiH by Prince de -- Toinville, an expatriated prince of France, whose house had been over- thrown in that great revolution of 1S4S. The French movement had succeeded, making this prince a wanderer. The German uprising had failed, and Hex- amer, the banished soldier, was in the army cf the American republic The prince led the battery into action, di- recting it and shifting its position ac- - cording to the turn of the fight, and kept Jt itiv engased until niuilr closed the "battle. I-na- ve ofteulieard -- nexamer ana ms Gmcsrs asd men. say i that it was among fuerr proudest recol- lections that they had fought raider the directions of a prince of the house cf Orleans in a fight for popular govern- ment. Subsequently De Joinville wrote a description of the peninsular cam- paign for publication in France and: paid Eexamer's German artillerists a brilliant compliment. After recounting the fields where he had witnessed good worfc, he said that he had never seen cooler men or mere eSciest service of the gnas than l.e saw with the German haKerywMch b had directed in -t- he-fight at Gaines 3SIL This lifceraZ word of the prince is all the more noteworthy in view of the fact that the legacy of hate between Germany and France, of wJHen we nave heard so much, since 1S70, really dates from the middle ages. "But to return to the duke. His im- petuous nature was the cause of no lit- tle concern to his uncle and likewise occasioned some embarrassment to Mc-Gleii- an. who had to oppose or sanction his hazardous projects. The day before the royal party left the - army for good the duke came under my close observa- tion in a very curious mannex, and I re- late the circumstance in detail because it fitly illustrates his character. It was the 29th cf June, the day that ur ad- vance, including 3IeCielian,s headquar- ters, cressed the White Oak swnmo on the march to the James river. Those were times of danger, far the swamp was crossed fey has cue road and en ail sides was exposed to sadden dashes by the enemy's fleet hesseraen.

IfcCIeHan and Do Jcinvill were farthest from me and were eagerly discussing some topic, doubtless the international complica- tions which caused the princes to leave the array and- - return to Europe. Still closer to my position, but portly screened from sight by the trunk of a tree, was the young Due de Chartres. He was in sulks, leaning his shoulders against the trunk of the tree and impatiently dig-pi- ng into the Lark with .bis spurs, first the right foot and thn the left. I won- dered what could cause the duke's agi- tation,, for I was only a boy at the time and had not yet learned that princely rank spores no man from the discipline of disappoints est. ISext day the three princes bade farewell to the army andT reaching steamer service in the James river, soon left the country for reasons of state and much, against their desire.

He also served in Al- giers as an Jtoooraxy afficer of the FreBch scmy, but in 1S&3 his name was striefarn from the rolls, when the Orleans family was placed under the ban of the repuciie. Gkoegs L.

During the civil war enormous -- fortunes were made by traders who carried car- goes of scarcities into blockaded Confederate ports. One of the principals, who acted as supercargo on 1 several different vessels fitted out by TTnHicfr speculators, was Thomas E. Taylor, a young man jost out of his teens. He made 23 trips into Secessia. After various adventures and thrHIing escapes on the Atlantic coast he started for a run into Galveston, with a little side wheeler called Banshee --No. 2, just at the close of the war. The cargo from England was consigned to parties in Havana, but after the Banshee left that pott she was on dangerous ground and lia We to ovprisitilri by I erni.rs. r tird npoa xud srrnk if she fallal to Jnvv to whtn smootMd by a shot lirr brw.

This proved to be my last trip. "The third evening after leaving Havana we had run pr distance, and, on heaving the lead aHd finding we were within a few miles of shore, we steamed cautiously cn in order to try and make out the blockading squadron or the land. It was a comparatively calm and very dark night, just the ans for the purpose, but within an hour all had changed, and it commenced to blow a regular 'norther, ' a wind which is very prevalent on that coast. Until then I had no idea what a norther' meant. First rain came down in torrents, then cut of the inky blackness of clouds and rain came furious gusts until a hurri- cane was blowing, against which, not- withstanding that we were steaming at full speed, we made little or no way, and, although the sen was smooth, our decks were swept by white feara and spray. Suddenly we made out some dark objects all around us, and found ourselves drifting helplessly among the ships of the blockading squadron, which were Steaming hard to their anchors, and at one moment we were almost jostling two of them. Whether they knew what we were or mistook us for cne of themselves matters not. They were tao much occupied about their own safety to attempt to interfere. "As to attempt to get into Galveston that night would have "been madness, we let the Banshee drift, and when we ties gilt we were clear of the fleet we steamed slowly seaward, after awhile shaping a course so as to make the land about 30 miles to the southwest at day- light. We succeeded in doing- - this, and euietly dropped our anchor in perfectly calm water, the norther having subsided almost as quickly as it had risen. Hav- ing seen enough of cur pilot to realize that he was no good whatever, we de- cided after a conference to He all day where we were, keeping a sharp lookout and steam handy, and determined as evening came on to creep slowly up the coast until we made gut the blockading fleer, then to anchor again and make a bold dash for cur port. "All went welL We were unmolest- ed during the day and got under weigh toward evening, passing close ttr a wreck, which we recognized. Immedi- ately after that we very nearly lost our own ship too. Seeing a post or Confed- erate soldiers close by on the "beach, we determined to steam ctese in and com- municate with them in order to learn all about the tactics of the Mecka tiers and our exact distance from Galveston. We backed her close in to the breakers m order ta speak, but when the order was given to go ahead she declined to move, and the chief engineer reported that something had gone wrong with the cylinder valve and that she muss heave to for repairs. It was an anxious mo- ment. The Banshee had barely three fathoms beneath her and her stem was aim est in the white water. We let go the anchor, bus in the heavy swell it failed to hold. The pilot was in a help- less state of flurry when he found that we were drifting slowly but steadily toward the shore, but Captain Steele's presence of mind never once deserted him. The comparatively few minutes which occupied the engineers in tempo- rarily remedying the defect seemed like hours in the presence of the danger mo- mentarily threatening us. When at length the engineers managed to tur her ahead, we on the bridge were great- ly relieved tr1- - see her point seaward d clear the breakers. "As soon as we reached deep water the damage was permanently repaired andwe steamed cautiously up the coast, until about sundown we made ou the tapmasts cf the blockading EGuadron right ahead. We promptly stopped, cal- culating that, as they were about 18 or II miles from us, Galveston must lie a little farther cn carport tow. We let go cur anchor and prepared for an anxious light. All hands were cn deck and the cable was ready to he unshackled at a moment's notice, with steam as nearly ready as possible without blowing off, as at any moment a prowler from the squadron patrolling the coast might have made us out. We had not been ly- ing thus very long when cn the star- board bow we made out a cruiser steam- ing toward us, evidently en the pruwL It was a crrricai rime. All hands were cn deck, a man standing by to knock the shacklo out of the chain cable and The engineers at their stations. TiAs to the 'backing of the coast, our friend did not discover us. 4 'After this alFwas qulefc duffagthe remainder Gf the night, which, fortu- nately far us, was very dark; anrl about two hours before daylight we quietly raised our anchor and steamed slowly en, feeling our way cautiously by the lead and hoping when daylight fairly broke to find ourselves inshie the fleet opposite Galveston and able to make a short dash for the ban We had been under weigh seme time, when suddenly we discovered a launch close to us cn the port bow filled with northern blue-jack- ets and marines. "Full speed ahead! shouted Captain Steele of the Basshee, ana we were within an ace cf running her down as we almost grazed her with our port paddle wheel. I look- ed straight down into-th- e boar, waving them a parting salute. The crew seemed only tao thankful at their narrow es- cape to open fire, but they scon regain- ed their senses and threw up rocket aft- er xeeiret in our wake as a warning to the blockading fleet. Tnf-Tr-r- li r Time tTOrt c7it"7t"- - Tvrr- - and the first thing we discovered wus that we had not taken sufficient account of the effects cf the 'north er1 cn the current. Instead cf being opposite the town, with the fleet broad cn cur star- board beam, we found ourselves down three or four ihiiTesr from it and the most leeward blcekader close to us on our bow. It was a moment for immedi- ate decision. The alternatives were to turn tall and stand a chae to seaward by their fastest cruisers, with chance of capture, and in any case a return to Ha- vana, as we had not sufficient coal for another attempt, or to make a dash for it and take the fire of the squadron-- In an instant we decided to go for it, and orders to turn ahead full speed were given.

Fortunate- ly there was a narrow shcal between us which prevented them from approach- ing within about half a mile of us. Luckily also far us they were, in rough water on the windward side cf the shcal and conid net lay their guns with pre- cision. And to this we owed our escape, as, although our funnels were riddled with shell splinters, we received no damage and bad only one man. wounde- d- But the worst was to came. We saw the white water already ahead and we knew our only chance was to hump through it, being well aware that if she stuck fast we should lose the ship and all our lives, far no boat, even if it could have been launched, would have lived in such, a surf, "With tvo leadsmen in the chains we approached our fate, taking no no- tice of the bursting shells and round shot to whieh the blcckaders treated us is their desperation.

Twelve feet, 10, 9, and when we put her at ir, as you do a horse at a jump, and her nose was entering: the white water, 'Eighfr feet' was sung out. A moment afterward we touched and hung, and I thought all was over, when a big wave came rolling alonT and lifted our stem and ship bodily with a crack which could be heard a quarter of a mile off, and which we thought meant that her back was broken.

Mr. Taylor is credited with having been a pioneer in having cargoes ship- ped from England to island pcrts frnfl consigned to parries there. These goods were then transferred to the blockade runners for a short trip to the Confeder- ate coast.
