number being 22O, 900. Let the interested compare
the machine sold in 1851 for 1925 with those now
offered for S55. The former owner of this ma
chine gives its history as follows.
The machine was finished early in 1851, and |

the machine with US. believe it is the first Ma

fall of Atlanta, informed them that

had ofkeraeise been intended for he re-
lief Of Aionta"
The vital importance Of Lynch
burg as reserve depot and pro-
posed place Of retreat in case Of the
abandonment of Richmond, was fully
appreciated by the rebel authorities.
BY the United States it was either
not fully understood, or the approach
deemed too hazardous. When the
enemy saw, therefore, their fatal
weakness was discovered and the
approaches already reconnoitered,
he was obliged to despatch force
to protect it at all hazards. Nearly
one-third of the flower of Lees
army, under Early, was detached for
that purpose.
Thus the great result was accom-
plished-Atlanta, unrelieyed, fell be.
fore the conquering arms of Sher-
man. Lees army, thus enfeebled,
remained imprisoned in Richmond,
and was never afterward able to haz-
ard an active demonstration. Early's
presence in the Valley of the Shenan-
doah convinced the Government of
the United States of the only effec-
tual policy to be pursued in that
quarter. He was confronted by a
superior army, attacked and annihi-
lated.
The subsequent movements of
Generals Grant and Sherman brought
the war to full and fortunate con
clusion- While rejoicing in the hon.
ors accorded to those great soldiers
whose fortune 1t has been to gather
in the glorious harvest, / still feel it
my duty to claim q modest wreath
for the gallant Army of West Vir-
ginia, which. through so much toll,
danger and suffering, assisted in pre-
pairing the Geld for the reapers.
