little scratch" Poor boyl He was after
wards fast rising to distinction, when his body
and his hopes were buried together in prema-
ture grave. This little incident will give an
idea Of the youthful ardor and character Of the
Palmcttoes. Young men Of wealth, of genius,
OF education, and Of distinguished family, COM
posed great part of the rank and file of the
Regiment. They knew and they appreciated
the responsibilities of their position, the char
acter OF the State whose honor was in their
keeping, the high and confident antcipations
with which their State looked to the day, when
thoy should be baptized in the fire and blood
of battle.
Such was the character Of tho men, and bra
yer men never were led to battle by Drawer
officers. Among the Captains was Frank Sum-
ter, the grandson of the patriot soldier Of the
revolution, and the compeer Of Marion, who
won the soUbriquet in history Of the "game
cock of the South" All the dictionaries in the
language could not give Sumter the faintest
conception of what fear means. And then there
was Preston S. Brooks, whose courage was
equal to any crisis. And there was the gallant
young Dcssaussure, who was wounded three
times at Churubrlsco, by reckless exposure OF
his person, as an example to his men,. And
there was Dunnovant, always ready for the
fray, and the foremost in it, and Walker and
Williams, both as gallant and true men as drew
4 sword in the war; Such were the Captains,
and rising higher in rank, was the heroic Col.
Pierce NJ. Bullet, the intrepid 1t. Col. Dickin-
son, and the unllaunted Major GLADDEN.. No

But oh grieye to leave the babe that nestles in

Twill miss the mothers clasping arms that lulled

And dmmed will be the sunny smile around young
