White Oak road, Crawford's men hesitated,
when Warren, riding forward with tho corps
flag. led them to the attack across the Gillian
field In person. They carried everything
before them, capturing good many prisoners.
The pursuit was continued toward the west for
half mile and was stopped by darkness.
Meanwhile. in concert with Gen. Warren g
movement, Sheridan's cavalry had attacked the
intrenchments on their southern front. fighting
dismoInted. Custer had made the proposed
feint as if to turn their far right. and was held
in check By W. Fl. F. Lee. But about the time
Ayres' Infantry had broken through on the
east. Devin's cavalrymen went over the works
in front with yell, taking three guns, two flags,
and about 1000 prisoners. Custer had been
pressing vigorously, and when Crawford 8 divis-
ion struck the enemy in his front In the rear
he charged and drove off everything. The
routed infantry of the enemy fled in confusion
through the woods toward the west.
Sheridan's victory was magnificently COM
plete. He had captured about $500 prisoners,
thirteen colors and six guns. The fifth corps
captured 3,244 prisoners, eleven regimental
colors and four guns Pickett's command was
scattered toward the west and was of no benefit
to Lee afterward. In results it was even more
important than Gettysburg, for it broke Leo
lines and forced the abandonment of both Rich
mond and Petersburg, inside Of nine days Lee &
army were prisoners and the war practically
ended. But ii is curious to note that tho total
loss % the fifth corps in this battle against the
confederate intrenchments was only 634 killed,
wounded and missing-300 in Crawfords divi-
sion. 205 in Ayres' and 129 in Grifin's. Pick

question OF How many prisoners were taken?''
and while his staff continued to give vent to
eccentric demonstrations Of 10Y over Short
dams victory he turned to his tent and wrote
kilograms directing the all-momentous opera
lions of the next day to begin with an assault
along the entire Petersburg front at 4:30 am.
THE FINAL STRUGGLE.
Cannon beloved all night long. There was
no sleep for the men of either army that night.
Both sides knew the final struggle was at hand
and nerved themselves for the ordeal On the
morning of April the corps Of Wright, Ord,
Parke. Gibbon and Humphrey charged the con-
federate works simultaneously from right to
left, breaking through the hitherto impregna-
BILE lines at all points and all pressing forward
In converging columns on Petersburg. Many
prisoners and guns were captured, all the corps
winning fair dividend Of the glorious sue
cess.
President Lincoln, who had come down to
City Point when Sheridan started out, to be
near the scene Of operations, was, BY Gen.
Grant, kept informed by numerous kilograms
of the progress of the attack. The confederates
fought bravely in this final struggle, infiicting
heavy losses on the charging federals, but the
tide was at last turned. The limit of even rebel
endurance and nerve had been reached,s Many
brave man fell on this bloody day, among
them that distinguished confederate officer,
years had been q tower of strength to his cause,
killed in the last three hours, while trying to
rally his broken troops.
After Five Forks Lee had sent word to Jeffer-
son Davis that his lines had been irretrievably
broken, making the evacuation OF the two cities
absolutely necessary. Davis received the intel
hSence with impossible calmness while sitting

and is fighting his battles vigorously as ever

Custer on the Sd entered Charlottesville. an
important railroad junction. Bad roads pre-
vented an attack on Lynchburg, beside which
1t WAS defended already by a considerable and
rapidly gathering force. The railroads and the
canal were wrecked in every direction. however,

kept it going. After it was thoroughly done he

The only blot on this glorious affair was the
relief Of Gen. Warren from command of his
corps by Gen. Sheridan after the victory was
won, with orders TO report to Gen. Grant
Sheridan was not satisfied that Warren had
properly exe-ted himself to get up the night
before. He was also dissatisfied with HIS work
that day. There was an inquiry afterward and
Warren was fully exonerated. 1t seemed a
gross injustice to thus strike down a general Of
Warrens record and standing on a successful
field of battle. which his own troops had won,
and was SO generally viewed by the army and
public. There Is a suspicion Of previous secret
prejudice against Warren on Sheridans part.

ELIZABETH STUART PHELPS

Was there ever mes sage sweeter
Than that one from Malvern Hill.
From a grim Old fellow-you remember
Dying III the dark at Mayern HUI.
With his rough face turned alttle,
On . heap Of scarlet sand.
They found him, Just within the thicket
With picture IN his md
With q stained and crumpled picture
OF wumau's aged face;
Yet there seemed to leap o wild ent treaty,
Young and living-tender-from the luce
When they flashed the lantern on it.
Gliding all the purple shade.
And stopped to raise him softly
That's my mother, sir" he sad
Tell her''-but he wandered. slipping
Into tangled words and cries
Something about 81 &C and Hooker,
Something dropping through the cries
About the kitten by the fire.
And mothers cranberry pies; and there
The words tell. and all utter
Silence brooded in the air.
Just as he was drifting from them.
Out into the dark. alone.
poor old mother. waiting for your message.
Waiting with the kitten. all aloneD
THROUGH the hush his voice broke-"Tell her
Thank you, Doctor--when you can,
Tell her that kissed her picture,
And wished I'd been Q better man."
All, I wonder II the red feet
OF departed battle-hours
May not leave for US their searching
Message from those distant hours.
Sisters, daughters mothers, think you,
Would your heroes now or then,
Dying. kiss your pictured faces,
Wishing they'd been better menl
