NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. ITEMS.

Last week we published in our Sup
| plement list of the members Of the
| Msury Grays, as IL started out. We were
| not able to get a full list of the recruits
| The list of casualties Is pretty cor rect
| furnished by Jim McEwen, (kewman)
Brute Nichol, Crawl Irvine and others.
The list of names was kindly given us
by Josh q. Bailey, who cut It out Of q
paper-the Mirror, we believe. ThlH
week we publish q list of the Maury
Rifles, Co B., Bates I'd Tenn. Regiment,
furnished from memory by seY eral OF
the company. Many of the gallant boys
who went out in these two companies
full of youth and life, never returned,
and their bones lie scattered all over
the South some in Virginia, others 10
Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama Mlssis-
sippi North Carolina, South Carolina
and Kentucky. The Maury Grays lef!
Columbia the LIST day of May, 1861, and
the MsuTy Rifles the next day; the
former were sworn in at Nashville OIL
the End OF April by Bushrod Johnson
and the MAury Rifles at Lynchburg,
Va, by Gen. Cooper. 1t will be seen
that Carlo Patti, brother OF the great
Prima Donna, Adelina Patti, was a
member Of the Rifles.
She carved his name on lar ge
beech tree. The bark Of beech tree is
well suited to carving names. The name
was beautifully carved, and his first
name is the same as that which was
written in sand because the writer
could not speak, 1876 years ago. His
second initial is the first letter OF
one of the DEVILS names; and the first
three letters OF the surname spell the
name of tree used tor tirewoOd. The
other syllable of his surname means a
certain heavy weight. She carved his
name there on that tree in sight
of the beautiful HOpewell church. And
it will remain there for a quarter of
century after they are both married,
unless Walker Scott cuts it down for
firewood.
