Ad Aged Soldier aad Sailor Who Applied For Lodging at the Way-larer's KesU Mike Burns, an aged Federal sailor. last evening applied for a night's lodging at the Way larer's Rest, stating that he was on his way from Tate county, to Cincinnati, having walked all the way, and was unahie to go further Mr. Burns says he was one of the crew of the gunboat Levington, a craft which was manned and equipped at Cincinnati, and which took part in a number of important engagements. lie enlisted at Cincinnati. The first engagement of any imMrtant character, in which the Lexington took port, was the bule of Shiloh.

Mr. Burns has a liadly broken arm, which, he says, he received at Shiloh, by lieing caught lietween a gun carriage and the side ol a porthole. Burns was also in the engagements at V'ieks-burg, and talks very intelligently of the incidents of that celebrated campaign. Later the Lexington took a trip up White river, during which a bushwhacker 6hot him through the leg from ambush on Bhore. Tins wound gives him great pain vet, and causes him much inconvenience in walking.

After the war Burns says he located in Tate county. where he has lived ever since. He says that, notwithstanding the fact that he was a L'nion soldier, he received the kindest of treatment lrom Southern people. liaising cotton and corn, he says, occupied his time so closely that he made very little etlot to get a pension, but now that he is to work, he has concluded to see if he can get one. For this purpose he is trying to reach his old home at Cincinnati, where he has friends who will assist him.

Several charitably disposed persons raised enough money, hist evening, to send the old man to his destination. PERSONAL POINTS. Mr. B. A Thomas and wife, of Sbrfbyvine, are at the Alexander.
