ON To THE DEPOT.
1t was Just ten minutes Of o'clock
when Colonel Jones gave the command
"Forward,' and in a few seconds the body
was marching down Seventh street with
the swing peculiar to men keeping step.
This, with the entire absence of music
OF any kind, gave marked emphasis tC
the rattllng Of the tin-cups. Soldiers un.
accompanied by drum or fife was an un-
usual sight. and citizens all along the
line were at loss to understand what 1t
all meant.
At the depot n number OF friends Of
the boys had assembled to see them off
Three coaches were gotten ready and at
tache1 to the regular northern train
which pulled out at 7:2j, having been de
layed exactly fifteen minutes by th'
movements Of the soldiers.
HOW WAS THE GAME?
As the last man entered the train HI
turned around with an anxious look oil
his face. All who saw him thought h
was going to send some message to hi
loved ones, in the event he should neve
come back. Instead Of doing that, he In
quifta OF a bystander, How was IN
gamer" Eight to two In favor of Rich
mond," was the reply. His face bright
ened and with look that said. Now
can die happy, If need be-" he entered tn
car.
1t was understood that when the Rich
mond soldiers reached Alexandra thel
would be joined by the Light Infantry o
that city, under command of Captain
Nushbach, and that the three companie
would make forced march Of sevel
miles to the camp, arriving there in tim
to eject the vagrants before daylight thi
morning.
