THE NATIONAL RIFLES.


Among others attracted TO Washington
by the banquet and reunion Of the original
members OF the National Rifles organiza-
ton was Col. Jasper NJ. Dresser, of La
fayette, Ind, whose famous "Dresser's
battery" made for itself a place In history
before Donaldson. Chatting with a RE-
PUBLICAN reporter Col. Dresser gave some
very interesting information respecting the
trying days Of 'Gi. lie was at the breaking
out Of the war clerk in the land depart
ment, enjoying the distinction OF being the
first clerk appointed under Republican
administration. lie was likewise mem
Der Of the National Rifles, then, as now, one
OF the crack militia organizations Of the
District. President Lincoln's call for
10000 three months men was published
April 10, 1861, and by o o'clock Of the same
morning most Of the members were at com
pany quarters, and by 10 o'clock the organ
ization had reported at the War Department
"ready for duty In the 'front.' It was the first
company mustered into the government
service, and not only that, but was also the
first company from the north TO enter upon
Virginia soil. The National Rifles passed
over the bridge and marched toward Alex
andria at midnight, and Ellsworth and his
men came over about five hours later. Col.
Dresser says that there is nothing he is

was the third man In his command to set
step on secession soil with gun tat ready"
and the stars and stripes to guide. Few
people can realize the great peril Washing
ton really was In at that time, and proper
credit has never been given the patriotic
people Of the District or the gallant men
who went forth to battle In Its defense
The company was quartered for while
near the house now occupied by Gen.
Logan, and many hostile bullet was wont
to whistle into camp. Tracing the history
OF the little band of men who went out
with the National Rifles, IL is seen that
almost oil who lived attained emil
nent position in the military, business,
or political world. Col. Dresser's history
was certainly an eventful one. During the
four years hard fighting which he saw after
he marched over the Potomac and into the
Old Dominion, he was under fire on no less
than 103 different occasions. He served
with Grant, Logan, Oglesby, and other dis
tlnguished generals, and always held i'm
portant commands. At the conclusion OF
the war he returned TO his former home In
Tippeccanoe county, Ind, and has been in
business there ever since. His visit here
last week was the first he had made TO
Washington for twenty-five years, and the
changes and improvements wrought In the
interval interested him greatly. Col.
Dresser Is a great admirer OF Gen. Logan,
and appears TO have much faith that In
diana, In common with almost all the west
ern states, will come solidly to the front for
Logan for President In 1888.
