Upon ex: minstion of my foot DIR. Gray

train on the Louisville IL Nashville Railroad.
Upon its arrival Is or 20 of us boarded it, aud
were soon on our way to Nashville Junction, IL
miles north of Nashville, which was as far Us the
train could 60
In the convaiescent squad was another boy
from our company named Anthony Brown,
aud. as was quite natural, his company was
preferred to any of the rest. So after travel
ing ali day and until or 10 o'clock that night,
we arrived at last at the junction. There the
Government had been concentrating and piling
up in the open air large quantities Of Commits
sary stores, which seemed to be entirely I'M
guarded.
After disembarking from the cars and being
conscious that our grub was pretty low, we pro-
ceeded TO replenish our haversacks from that
pile. With the aid of our guns we opened a
box Of crackers and barrel of sugar, and after
helping ourselves TO as much as we thought
would last US TO Nashville, we began our search
for the convalescent squad. Failing to find
them, we wandered across the Louisville &
Nashville pike, and, climbing over fence,
found ourselves in q last years cornGeld. APP

found TO be in an almost hopeless condition,
the soldiers dspirited and disheartened, their
armies meeting with defeat and discomfture
at every point. and the soldiers going over to
the Union army in great numbers. Something
had to be done TO strengthen the back bone of
the dying Government, and Lamar undertook
the hazardous task of making speeches to the
soldiers to enthnse and encourage them as
much as possible. He came down to the army
in front of Petersburg TO talk to tho boys in
the trenches, to encourage them to hold out
faithful. Now, the pine forest had been cut
down in front OF Petersburg, and the stumps
were very thick 1t was announced that La
mar was going to address the soldiers, and
when they were locking around for a good
position from which he could speak to them,
he was greeted with all sorts of remarks and
jeers from the discouraged soldiery. "Put
him on a stump" yelled a score of voices land
his speech will be short"
At this time there was no hour of night or
day that Yankee bullets were not flying thick
and fast over the trenches. Finally they placed
him Oh a stump in front of where the 18th Miss
lay. aud amidst the whizziBg bullets he began
to tell them Of his visit to England. and of the
certainty of the recognition of the Confcderacy
by that power at an early day. He told them
of their idle cstton-mills and starving opera
tives, because of their inability to get cotton
through the blockaded Southern ports. He
the wonderful success of the Confederate arms,
and the success of the Confederacy just OH the
eve Of realization, and its recognition by the
great powers OF earth, which was assured from
the fact that they had 10 have their cotton,
and could not get it as long as the blockade
existed. 1t was about 8 o'clock at night; the
Yankee bullets few thick aud fast, and it was
a weird and rather ludicrons sight to see Lamar
there on that stump alternately ducking and
lodging his head to escape the bullets as they
clipped past him, and trying to make his
frequently interrupted speech ineligible. The
remarks, the jjests. jeers and sarcasm of the
boys in the trenches as Lamar's attempted
eloquence was cnt short by dodge or duck,
added greatly to its righteousness. At times
Lamar being good at rcpartee would jokingly
reply to some of the salles of the boys; at
other times he would look around wildly as a
bullet passed uncomfortably close to his head
Finally the bullets came SO thick and fast
that his broken speech was hardly ineligible,
and the ieers of the boys came CORRESPONDENCE
thick. Evidently he was reaching climax,
when bullet whizzed 30 close to his head that
he began to think discretion the better part
of valor," and jumping from the stump brought
his speech abruptly to a close with the excla-
nation: "That - Yankee must have owls
eyes! "-E. 6. RUST, Orderly Sergeant, Co. K
