Campalsniug Incidents.


V. w. Krse, 1881 Pa, Neigh, Neb., gives a
brief account of how his command almost
walked into trap the rebels set for them at
Charlottesville by marching four miles into
the enemy's lines 10 where they had cut the
sp0kes of their eaissous, so that the Union sol
diers could not haul them away, and scattered
the shells ali around, so they would explode as
our men drove over them. Our troops did not
meddle with them, however, as they were up
10 these little tricks. The FedeTals came to
the rebel quarters and captured four or five
prisoners, among them darky whom the Off
GERS scared into telling them where the com
mand was and the rebels plan. They retraced
their steps over those four miles in q hurry,
and threw up breastworks and got battery
into position, hardly accomplishing this before
the rebels came IN sight
5. T. Bryce, Co. IL, Sd Mich. Cav, Dayton,
o., calls 10 mind the Winter of 1862 3, when
Grant started from Grand Junction down
through Mississippi via Holly Springs. For
% days the writer's regiment was under FIRE
each day, and during that time they drew but
three-and-a half days rations, because Van
Dorm was in Holly Springs and had destroyed
the Commissary's stores. The writer also re-
calls another time, in the Summer of 1863
when his brigade was sent 10 Grenada to de-
stroy 4 number of locomotives that the rebels
had there. After accomplishing this he was
sent with squad to capture some horses at
distance, with orders to return to the brigade
This, however, moved on, and Bryce and his
men did not rejoin it until near Corinth, 10
days afterward. In the meanwhile his little
party had ridden 200miles through the euemy's
country and left their mark all along the line

what became of that squad of cannoneerS,
who, with a six-horse load of ammunition, were

VIM. Il. Dart, Co. G. 9TH Ohio, MoKeesport,
Pa, cannot understand why it takes so much
red tape for a veteran to get his dues. When
his regiment entered the service every man was
carefully examined, and those who were unfit
were rejected The record of that inspection
ought to be sufficient proof that the men were
sound ut the time of enlistment The men of
his regiment went wherever ordered, from Rich
Mountain to the Wilderness. by which time
they were nearly all killed. They were led by
that able commander, S. S. Carroll.
T. NJ. Low, Pulaski ILL.,. says that the COM
rades are not up to the common trick Of Con-
gressmen of introducing bills in the House of
Representatives to be pigeon, hoed in tho desks
of the Committee on Invalid Pensions. This
will no longer pull the wool over the veterans
eyes. They want real work and honesty, in
place of buncombe bills.

general smartening of arms and accoutre-
ments for O'Clock parade, then march
out at the tail Of large column to rem

From IL to IL the boys took very active
part in the brisk sham fight on the Downs
SO active that, during vigorous '.double''
up and down the slopes, the adjutant, I'M
mounted for the moment, was overheard
loudly wishing himself still at school, and
in condition to keep up the pace with the
youngsters. But the rapid pace did not
seem to shake the steadinees Of the fire, as
the mimic battle swept-so happily does
history sometimes repeat itself-over the
bridgeway and Grim's Dixie, scene of unre.
corded British battles in the far-of centu-
ries. And when the battalion had formed
up after the action and marched into camp,
there was but scanty interval of dinner
for brigade parade and march past in the
hot August afternoon. But there was en-
ergy enough left for well-maintained
"sing-song" in the recreation tent that
evening" and on Monday afternoon, in
the brigade sports, more than once did
youth and agility carry of the prize against
tho strength of moro seasoned veterans.
Finally, on the last mornings parade, be-
fore marching to the departure train, the
cheers which were raised (waiving the
strict military regulation for the nonce) in
answer to the adjutant's appeal that they
should como again and bring their brothers
with them, would have convinced the most
skeptical that the boys had in every sense a
good time" at Churn camp. And We may
hope they will have such good time again,
and take not only their brothers but their
brother schools with them.
