A few days after this little excursion Of mine
with Private Jones to the camp of the Twenty
sixth Alabama, | happened to be again stand
ing in the neighborhood of the south gate
when | saw my confederate friend enter the
stockade and scan the faces of the prisoners as
if in search Of somebody. Presently he glanced
in my direction, and, on recognizing me-
walked over to where | was standing and told
me that he had procured another permit for
me to leave the camp. We accordingly left the
stoclade together and started Off for the rebel
camp On the way he told me that he had
secured permission for me to leave the prison
on condition that he would mako himself per-
sonaly responsible for my safe-keeping. You
viii draw said he, your ratons with my
mess, eat and sleep with Us, and have every

regards your liberty, and even that will be but
slightly restrained You may roam around

you Will not be allowed to leave the neighbOr-
hood"

While I cordially endorse this 1 would sug-
gest, in all kindness, that we send him also a
copy Of the Lords Prayer, rs it is very likely
he played truant in his youthful days and went
'possum hunting when he should have been re-

then, send him the Lords Prayer and give the

Mr.. Jos. ". KIRKLEY-Dcar Sir: 4 short
time ago I wrote THE TRIBUNE and called
their attention to the fact that the last TRIB-
UNE I had received was dated July 29th. They
sent me the missing numbers, and, then for
the first time I saw the article You so kindly
wrote of our regiment, and oh! how I regretted
that l had not seen it before our Reunion, that
some proper notice might have been taken Of
it.
I have wondered often what you could have
thought Of Us in not in any way, acknowledge
ing your kindness l can simply say l regret it
very much, and in this late day and in this
quiet way, in behalf Of the Sixth regiment
Maryland infantry, I now return you our hearty
thanks.

is Professor Messer, of Russia, chemist
Of very high standing. The principal

ticles 10 the past few years has been
much greater than the production, and
that the demand will increase each year
