Gen. Meade has submitted a written
statement to the War Committee, giving
a detailed account Of the battle Of Get
tysburg, together with an explanation
of his conduct on that OCCASION. His
statements are corroborated by the tes-
timony of Gems. Hancock, Warren, Glib

dicate him from the accusations mada
before the committee by his enemies.-
Gen. Meade denies in the most positive
manner the statement that he issued or
directed to be issued, an order on the
I'd of July, or at any time, ordering a
retreat to Tanneytown, which is four
teen miles south of Gettysburg. Hs
says he had resolved from the first, to
hold his position there, and to fight the
battle which he knew was impending
He had no idea of falling back, as he
we'll knew, as everybody knows, that a
retreat at that time would have involved
pursuit by tho enemy, and, perhaps, re

Of its existence was received from Gen.
Gibbons, who told him on the evening
of the second of July, that he had see n
it in the hands of Gen. Butterflll. II,
promptly denied its authenticity to Gen
Gibbons, at the time. The only basi.
for the accusation on this point Gen
Meade surmises is this: Upon assuming
command of the army he found himself
without chief of staff acquainted with
the routine Of business at headquarters
He requested Gen. Butter6ed to retair
his position as chief of staff until thu
crisis had passed. Gen. Butter6elC
consented and was at once ordered t.
survey the position and make himsel
acquainted with the rear lines of com

A good story has been told Of lisp

captain-was always quizzing the lisp.

"Why," said he one day, in the pres

all nonsense. l tell you, lieutenant, no

"How," said the captain, winking at
tho circle, "why, take it cool, aud spit

The party broke up, and all retired
except the patrol. The next morning u
number of soldiers were assembled on
the parade and talking in clusters, when
along came the lisping lieutenant. La.
zily opsuing his eyes, he remarked:
"I want to try an experiment tbith
morning, and thee how exceedingly cool
you can be-"
Saying this, he walked deliberately
into the captains quarters, whore a fire
was burning on the hearth, and placing
in the hottest center powder canister,
instantly retreated. There was but one
mode Of egross from the quarters, and
that was upon the parade ground, the
road being built up for defense. The
occupant took one look at the canister

moment dashed at the door, but it was
fastened on the outside.

"Thpit on the canither" shouted he
in return.
Not moment was to be lost. He
had first caught up a blanket to cover
his egress; but now dropping it, he rails
ed the window and out he bounded, sans
eulottes, sans everything but q very
short undergarment; and thus, with
hair almost on end, he dashed upon q
full parade ground, The shouts whicI
hailed him called out the whole barack.

ny HORACE.
Upon the nold Of battle,
Lies u soldier true and brave;
Hois thinking Of his Country,
And the flag he'll die to save;
For no feels that ere the morrow
lie must fill a soldiers grave.
As lis life.bloods slowly ebbing,
1t seems ho can almost see
His dear home, in fair Ohio,
And his wife, and children three;
who, before he had enlisted,
Were as happy as could be.
They were happy and contented,
As the days flew swiftly By;
Never dreaming that their loved ono
On the battlefield would lie,
with no kindly voice to cheer him,
with no friend to see him die,
But when the fall Of Sumter,
Resouudcd through the land,
And from every hill and valley
Camo each brave, devoted band,
Iheni he felt he must go with them,
Aud battle for his land.
He had fought each conflict braycly;
But on shiloh's bloody plain,
Where the fighting was the fcrcest,i
Where the bullets fell like rain,
Fighting brayely, he had fallen
Fallen ne'er to rise again.
When the stars came out that evening,
And the moon, like FURNISHED gold,
shone upon the field of battle,
1t beheld the soldier bold,
On the spot where he had fallen,
Lying motionless and cold
Then all honor to our soldiers,
Who for their Country die;
And although upon the battlefield,
Their earthly bodies lie;
Shall we not hope to meet them
In that home beyoud the sky?
