Peninsula campaign, and for that reason
was in very inferior condition, suitable for
scouting and picked duty only. Besides,
it had hundreds of miles of communica-
tion to guard, as well as the Potomac cross
ings.
The return of the Confederate cavalry
was the most difficult part of the daring
expedition. That short cut of twenty odd
miles from Williamsport to Chambersburg
could not be made again. Cox's Kama
wha division was known to be in that
vicinity, and there were thousands of Union
troops within easy call. Lees instructions
had been thatthe crossing back be made
near Leesburg some distance below the
territory occupied by McClellan's army
and between fifty and sixty miles in a dr.
rect line from Chambersburg. The start
was made early on the morning of the 11th-
Nearly every cavalryman had an extra
horse led from his saddle, and being for
the most part newly shod and fed, the
whole cavalcade was in fine spirits. Along
the streets and on the farm roads wagon
loads of goods and produce were left stand
ing without teams, the horses having been

horses, answered: Crying won't do any
good. Your folks took nine blooded horses

SONGS THAT MOTHER SUNG.

Go sing the songs you cherish well,
Each ode and simple lay;
90 chord the notes till bosoms swell
With strains that deftly play.
All, all are yours to sacred keep
Your choicest treasures 'mong.
But leave for me, till mem ries sleep,
The songs that mother sung
When life's dark paans, plaintive round
Fall cross the weary way,
To bring in soughing, mournful sound
The dirge of dismal day,
Then softly back lost strains will steal,
From cradle anthem rung,
To drown the woes that sorrows feel
In songs that m mother sung.
When mirth and sadness-as they will
Recall those times agone.
70 wake the mem ries lingering still
Mid life's bright morning dawn;
Then. dreaming vivid 'bove the rest,
As when our childhood clung.
We lie and listen, on her breast,
To songs that mother sung.
And when the ebb of eventide,
Afar across the strand,
Sets out to where the bilIows ride,
Beyond life's shifting sand,
In lost refrain. above the roar
OF mad, mad waters flung,
o, back, bring back to me once more
The songs that mother sungl

Lee or 'Jeb" Stuart, when hands would go
up in horror, and often loaded dishes of
food would be dashed to the floor. Good
feeling prevailed generally, however.
Stuart's officers entered the homes of the
wealthy and cultured and bore themselves
like gentlemen, putting everybody at ease.
Among the homes where the raiders
were entertained was that of Col. A. X.
Mcclure, the Philadelphia editor, then a
lawyer of that town. Mcclure had been
on McClellan's staff at Antietam, and was
an officer of the Home Guard. Stuart had
put him on a list of officials to be captured
and retained as hostages, but by accident
a party of Confederates stumbled upon
his residence early in the evening and were
Hospitality entertained. OF course no strag
Cling patrol or search would trouble a
house where Confederate officers were en-
joying themselves, and the recipients of
hospitality would not betray their enter
tainers, and the night passed in feasting
and in discussion of the situation. The
raiders had cut the telegraph, and there
was no opportunity to send word abroad
for military relief. Col. Mcclure accepted
the inevitable calmly, talked frankly about
public sentiment and finally asked favor
of the raiders in the return to his stable of
favOrite pony belonging 30 a young lady
of his household which had been seized as
legal capture. 1t was of course returned.
The next morning Oct. IL, Large quanti-
ties of military stores, machine shops. rail
road buildings ard loaded trains were de-
stroyed. The railway bridge and trestle
was of iron and could not be burned.
After accomplishing this Stuart set out on
the return-the most difficult part of the
raid: for while he had dashed boldly
days ride into Union territory with but
little opposition, it was not to be supposed
that with military lines all around his
course his passage would escape notice or
fail to arouse an army to cut off his re-
treat
The first alarm sent out from the Union
cautionary lines was given by the signal
corps near the point of Stuart's crossing
on the morning of the 10th. The news
was sent at once to the district command
ers, to army headquarters, and to the cav
airy Great uncertainty prevailed as to
the direction taken by Stuart, his strength,
etc. The day was passed in scouting and
conjecture. McClellan's cavalry was COM
manded by Gen. Alfred Pleasanton, and
was posted on the flanks and rear of his
army. 1t had not been recruited since tx

ONLY A WORD.

Only a word may leave a sting
To wound some kind and loving heart
1t may be but trifling thing
That cuts as deeply as dart.
Only a word may stir up strife
And quickly cause bitter hate,
The deepest sorrow make for life,
Then may repentance come too late.
Only word may be blow
OF torture keen as any pain,
And cloud bright young life in woe,
From which it ne er can rise again.
Only a word may be ray
Of sunshine in some dismal room,
And help to brighten many day
Which is spent in hours of gloom.
Only a word, but in it lies
Power to change full many fate.
How little do we realize
In but one word what may await.
Only word may lead the way
From clouds of darkness to the light
May help some weary one to pray
And guide them to the path of right.

appreciation OF the glory and greatness
of our early times-the times of patriots
and of heroes. The old building was
purchased by the stste because it had be-
come q part of Texas history, because 1t
stood a monument of the chivalry OF her
sous, because its stones were baptized in
the blood Of her martyrs. Mr.. Editor,
there stands To-day Gin your own city,
another ancient building, the walls of
which have been bu!warks Of Texas
liberty, which have afforded the Anglo
Saxon protection from Mexican bullets,
within which David Crockett took the
oath of allegiance to Texas, and from
which he went forth to die in the Alamo
for Texas liberty. The building alluded
to Is the Old Stone Fort. East Texas
monument Of Texas glory. The Old
Stone Fort and the Alamo both stood
through our stste's darkest and blood.
