The wonder Of those whogo to the Har-
nett House, in Savannah, is that so excel
lent table and such comfortable rooms
can be offered to the public at such mini
mum rates. Without exaggeratiOn, the
table of the Harnett is as good as that of
the Screven House, and the rates just one
half as large. Courteous treatment makes
up the sum Of its attractions. The public
largely testified their apprecIation.-

Heroes, Not Beggars.


The newspapers who are engaged in heaping
ridicule on the pensioners of the late war, and
placing them in the category of Government
deadbeats, had better stop for brief time and
refresh their memory with the days when their
editors were either fleeing to Canada to escape
conscription, or in some northern saloon were
cursing the Government for removing the
shackles from the black sarfs.
These men who are now jeered at for being
pensioners were the men who followed the flag
of the Union through deadly carnage and were
left upon Southern battlefields MANNED for life.
If it were not for their valor, their patriotism,
their sacrifices, their devotion to the Union,
freedom of speech would be an unknown guam
tity in this year of our lord 1884.
The pttance that the Government pays these
heroes is but mere bagatelle in comparison to
the loss of health and limbs they underwent
while battling to uphold the Constitution and
the Union.
Politicians can steal the Government poor, but
when a man who stood up as a target for rebel
bullets asks for pension he is pointed at as a
beggar or q dead beat, when, in fact he is a hero
worthy of a Nations lasting gratitude, and as
worthy to wear orders of decoration as the
famed knights of old.
This Nation can never forget the men who,
when its enemies tried to tear its flag down
and sever the ties of the Union, left the pur-
suits of civil life and marched to its defense,
and the political party that forgets them had
better make preparations for its funeral.

The GunbOat Essex.

To THE EDITOR: In your issue of Nov. IS
Henry j. LYDIA, in his account of the capture
of the Arkansas by the Essex, states that the
gunboat Essex was the only vessel of any kind
that ever passed the batteries of Vicksburg in
daylight. Allow me to correct him in this
statement While our regiment was encamped
four miles below Vicksburg, on the Louisiana
side about the 1st of February, 1868, we were
startled by the laundering of all the big guns
at sunrise one clear morning while We were
cooking and eating breakfast. We at once
turned our eyes towards the city, which was
in plain sight, and saw big, black steamer
rounding the bend in front of the city. She
headed for the shore, running into the steamer
City of Vicksburg lying at the levee; backed
out and headed down stream past the lower
batteries, and successfully made a landing in
front of our camp where she lay all day for
repairs. 1t was the ram Queen of the West.
Shortly afterwards she went below and was
captured at Red River.-J. E. TIsDALE, 29th

Doesn't Think the Cavalry Should Have all the
Credit

To THE EDITOR: As one of your regular
subscribers 1 read your valuable paper with
the deepest interest. and am glad to see the
comrades throughout the country taking such
an interest in its welfare as to keep up their
contributions to the columns of Fighting
Them Over" so regularly; to me most inter-
esting feature of the paper. 1t is well, however,
that history so written should be correct.
In your issue of Dec. a, Comrade Warren G.
Hursh, Co. G, 1st n. J. Cav, claiming merit for
the cavalry arm of the service in the series of
engagements beginning at Cedar Mountain and
ending with the second Bull Run, land no one
who knows their hard and gallant service will
withhold it, says: "H Had it not been for our
cavalry at Cedar Mountain, Banks would have
been routed long before noon."
Now. for the cavalry to claim merit at the
expense of their comrades in the other branches
of the service is not just; and in this instance
the representation of facts made is far from
their actual occurrence. Gen. Banks with his
Corps was in bivouac at Culpeper Courthouse
when, on the morning of Aug. 8, 1862, the fol-
lowing order was received from Mai. Gen. Jno.
Pope, commanding the Army of Virginia, and
taken down in writing at the time by Asst
Adj't-Gen. Louis II. Pelouze, of Gen. Banks's
staff:

Gen. Banks to move to the front Immediately,
assume command of all forces in the 'front.' deploy
his skirmishers if the enemy approaches and attack
him Immediately soon as he approaches and be
re-enforced from here.
AS l was present at the time the order was
received, l can bear testimony to the accuracy
of the above, as l heard the order and have a
distinct remembrance of it as above.
Now to the pointer the facts as they actu-
ally occurred. In obedience TO the above order
Gen. Banks at once put his Corps on the march
to the 'front.' the distance to Cedar Mountain,
or where the battle was fought, was about seven
miles. Starting at 9:45 in the morning it was
already high noon before he reached it. The
writer made the march with him. On reach
ing the field we found the cavalry in line and
their skirmishers exchanging an occasional
shot with the enemy. Gen. Banks deployed
his line at once-Gens. Crawfords and Gordon's
Brigades on the right, and Geary's and Princes
Brigades on the left. In this position every
in the afternoon, when, the enemy showing a
disposition to advance, an attack was made, in
obedience to orders, Immediately"
Gen. Crawford made a gallant and successful
charge, and had our thin line had any support
the advantage thus gained could have been
followed up, and history to-day would record
Cedar Mountain as q gallant victory to the
one; no braver troops ever engaged an enemy
on any field, but odds were too heavily against
them; and the desperate valor with which they
fought is shown by the fact that, though so
much outnumbered, when darkness came the
enemy had but acquired the ground where
our line first formed and the two armies
were so mixed up that many on both sides
found themselves in the enemy's lines. and were
captured, Gen. Crawford himself only escaping
a like fate by the mereSt chance
Now, if Gen. Banks did not nor could not
reach the field until high noon, possibly later,
and the engagement did not commence until
o'clock in the afternoon, how could the cavalry
or any other body of troops have saved him
from being "routed long before noon?
The cavalry won glory enough without any
of its number attempting to win more at this
late day. Its glory is too grand and glorious
to need any establishment, and the 1st n J. is
entitled to full and honest share. Hence /
infer Comrade Hursh, in writing from memory
alone, has erred. / write from data taken from
my diary written at the time, and only state
the facts.-W. SIMPSON, Co. E, 9th N. Y. S. NJ,
