NEW YORK, May 24-The majority Of
visitors to picture gallery take terrific
pains to conceal their ignorance. They
never looked so knowing in their lives nor
knew so little, as a general thing. They
enter with catalogue in hand and faces hard
set, ready to die for what they don't know,
IL need be- Nowhere else on the green earth
do they wear countenances so forbidding.
This is to prevent any one from suspeeting
that they are not infallible critics Of every

picture and squints at it with his eye an
inch and half from the canvas and frowns
more and more. Something in its technique
does great violence to his taste. Some of
the Iookers-on who are seated and watching
the others at their ease put him down as
painter with no end of taste and knowledge
to be outraged by crude daubers. If they
could follow him home and learn that he is

CONFEDERATE DEAD OF MANASSAS.
The Neglected Cemetery Near Groveton,
Virginia.


Especial CorresDondence.l
BosToN, May "a Travellers through those
portions of the southern states which were the
fields of active operations during the late war,
will find among the chief points which attract
their attention the government cemeteries,
in which are inferred the remains of those OF
our soldiers who fell in defense Of the Union,
generally LOCATED on some commanding emil

selves, What became of the poor fellows
who fell on the other side-the Confederatesf'
and so far as relates to those who died at or
near Manassas will endeavor to answer the
question.
In May and June of 'S3 l made a
pedestrian tour through ''Old Virginia" and
while en- route from Centreville to Warren
ton, and quite near Groveton, my attention
was attracted by peculiar looking gateway
and fence built of boards laid horizontally,
and entirely different from the ordinary Vir-
ginia inclosure. The gate, also of wood, was
made in two parts and was spanned by
a plain wooden arch surA by final
At this point the road passes through a cut
about seven feet deep; and as there is not,
and never has been, any regular approach to
the gateway, it was necessary to climb the
bank to get to it. did this, and, passing
through found myself in what had been an
inclosure.
At first sight there is nothing to indicate
the character of the place, and it was only
after some time had elapsed that noticed
that / stood among graves, which I after
wards learned contained the remains of the
Confederate dead who fell in the battle of
Manassas, 1862
Never has it been my lot to look upon a
more neglected spot. The situation was one
well adap ed to the purpose ridge extend
ing in from the road about 100 yards
The fence extended along the road for per-
haps 800 feet, and this, with the exception of
the gateway, is in fair condition The gates,
however, each hung by single hinge; the
posts far out Of perpendicular; the arch and
its final almost ready to fall; the fence in
the rear and much of that on the sides had
either entirely disappeared or lay rotting
upon the ground The ground itself was so
completely covered with weeds AMI berry
bushes that / did not realize that | was
among the dead till I felt the graves with
my feet On inspection l founl that the
mounds were in rows extending in from the
road at right angles, and through the center
row broad pathway. tried to count the
rows and the number of graves in each, but
found it impracticable; but l should judge
there might be 800 or 1000 One grave, and
only one is marke with the name of the oc-
cupant, the rest have no mark whatever. On
