 An order has just been issued py

 Russell. for thirty-six years chief engi-
 neer of the railroad, consulting engi-

 relieves Mir. Russell from the exacting
 duties of the chief engineer. but re- tains the benefit of his expert judg-
 ment and long experience. The order
 reads that Walter shepard, of Boston.
 has been appointed chief engineer to
 succeed Mir. Russell. promoted. As
 further evidence that MT. Russell is
 not shelved, 1t Is said that he is to re- ceive an increase of salary. The
 Springfield Republican says: MT.
 RusselFs railroad career began in 1886. when he was eighteen years old. He then held the chain for surveyors on the Western railroad, and tramped over the Berkshire hills until 1S42. Then he moved to Ellington, Conn.,, and set tied down benedict apd farmer. Three years later he took up surveying again. this time on the New York. New Haven and Hartford line. Daniel L. Harris was in charge of the party, which included the late Joel B. Harris, of Rutland. Vt. For some years MT. Russell worked on the Cheshire and n1 it, 12EQ on v,.a back to the Boston and Albany, then as chief engineer. For twelve years he lived in Westfeld, but now resides in West Springfield.
 The chief engineers life on the rail- road is no sinecure, but it was particu- larly hard in the early days. Then he commanded the snow-plow and wreck ing train, and spent many long night exposed to cold or rain. Assistants have taken much of this work in late years, but at washout or serious &C., cident Engineer Russell is always on hand and Is general in the field of ac- tion. He lis silent man and chews industriously on cigar stub when overseeing work. But he knows just how to do things, and natural skill sup plements his familiarity with engineer ing rules Many will join in the hope that he may long continue at his desk in the granite building. which would seem lonesome to railroad men with out him. Although the oldest of the three brothers engaged in railroading, MT. Russell has kept in active service longest. Conductor James E. Russell has passed away, and Charles o. Rus sell once superintendent of the Vest ern railroad lives in retirement"

On the Second Bull Run Field.

Alfred Davenport, New York, says: I"
have received many letters in regard to my
Gaines's Mill story, also about one on the
second Bull Run fight. I have before me a
letter from one of the Pennsylvania Reserves
'0th) who were with three other regiments
on Bald Hill, second Bull Run, behind the
Duryea Zouaves. He corroborates my ac-
count only gives rs more credit than did in
my article, and says he never saw more desper-
ate fighting than was done by our regiment,
or more obstinate resistance in falling back.
His brigade was four lines deep, and by the
time the 9Th n. Y. reached them received a
flank fire, and they returned only two volleys
and broke in disorder, being Outflauked.
Yet his regiment (the 10th) lost out of about
$50, % killed and ga wounded"

living here who were more than 10 years in

was mortaIly wounded by sharpshooter in
the Devils Den. Capt Haslett, of Battery
ID, STOPPING to receive the Generals dying
message, was instantly killed This incl
dent took place less than 90 feet from the
left of our regiment aud Immediately over
US.
Pickett's charge really has never been de-
scribed. 1t never can be. Our elevated posi-
ton afforded us the best and least obstrueted
view of the battlefield, and that part over
which Pickett charged, than any troops il
the great battle.
That prodigious canuonade which pre-
coded the final charge, and other scenes on
which looked for two full days, where the
most desperate struggles were hourly taking
place, are indelibly photographed in my
memory.
For two hours-twO dreadful hOurs-pre-
ceding Pieketrs great charge over 200 cans
non vomited their missiles of wanton de-
struction until the air was rent. cut and
whipped intS a sulphurous gas. Kissing,
screaming, moaning shot and shell filed the
sky as does a swarm Of bees at nOOntime. The
earth trembled. Stones that formed our
breastwoTks fell from their places. Then, as
if commanded by Deity, the wondrous
engines of war were hushed, and for time
the silence was awful. We had not long to
wait before more stupendous act was on
the stage of the theater of war. For scarcely
had the great curtain of smoke been lifted
heavenward, than every soldier on Little
Top realized that the crisis had come. And
by the mettle of man, man was to be tested.
The green of Seminary Ridge was changed
to more sOmber color by the rapid forming
of Picketts Virginians. Every head was

the expectant rebel host, before whom none
had ever stood but to 90 down in death.
In three columns they came as if on re-
view, Withholding their FIRE until in musket-
range of our lines. Hasletts battery on
Round Top opened with her rifed cannon q
murderOus enfading fire.
hundred cannon joined, and 10000
muskets poured out volleys.
The rebels went down like forest trees In
the path of a hurricane. But they closed
their ranks and onward came, to meet PENN
sylvsnians on Pennsylvania soil, where
the most desperate hand-to-hand fighting OF
the war took place.
Wounded and prisoners were the few that
escaped death, and here commenced the re-
ceding tide of rebellion. Lee, the great
chieftain, was defeated, and Meade, the Penn
sylyanIan, made hero.
And more than ever am convinced of the
foolishness of my attempt to describe.

That skiits the valleys further margs

fairly begun, and came to understand why
the rebels had been so busy cleaning and pre-
pairing their guns, / blamed myself for not
hurrying back and informing Gen. Minty of
the condition of things in that direction !;
it would probably have been useful informa-
lion.
We moved along on this road carefully,
and prepared for a fight, knowing very well
that, being so close to the rebel line, we were
likely to meet rebel scouting parties at any
time. But our good luck seemed to follow
us, as we did not meet anybody until
we came in sight of house a mile or more
from where we got the corn. At this house
there was picket reserve of our own COM
mand, the same party that had crossed the
creek when we did.
We passed the videt and went on to the
house, where we found a well-traveled road,
running past and nearly at right angles to
The one we came on. We had not been more
than 10 or Is minutes at this picket-post
before the rebel advance commenced firing
on the road running at right angles to the
one we had travelled, and the videts were
driven in. The officer in charge requested
us to remain awhile and assist in repulsing
the enemy, which we did, and were soon
busy firing on their skirmish-line coming
through an open field on the right of the
road.
But the rebS did not seem to be in any
great hurry to advance. Their skirmishers
stopped in about the middle of the field.
1t seemed as if they were waiting for some
other troops to move forward.
Soon heavy firing was heard to the right,
which indicated that our friends over in the
woods had got through cleaning their guns,
and were advancing ALSO Then we knew
that our regiment would be ordered forward,
and we hurried back some distance and
found it drawn up in line across the road.
What occurred after that has been fully de-
scribed by Gen. Minty. When the retreat
commenced / was placed in charge of the
the retrograde movement of the 4th u. S.
Cav. along from the road TO the marsh and
falling back toward the old coduroy crossing.
We had just about skirmishng enough for
pastime. They did not press us SO very
hard. Their aim seemed TO be to get posses
sion of the corduroy bridge in our rear.
Their effort to do this has also been described
by Gen. Mnty. But 1 with my skirmishers
claim to be the last of our troops that crossed
the bridge that night It was quite dark
when We got to the corduroy, and when we
were about half way over the Board of Trade
Battery, on the opposite side of the marsh,
opened on the rebels that were following
We could not see the battery, but the flashes
from the guns lit up the horizon, and the
shells W iZZed over our heads.-JAMEs

At Fort DOnelson.

Daniel p. Donnell, Co. F, Cd Iowa, New
buryport, Mass, says: In the issue of July 5
Comrade Parshall asks "Who was the first to
see the white flag on the rife-pits at Fort
Donelson, and what regiment led the army
into the fort. / would say the I'd Iowa saw
the white flag as soon as anybody. 1t was
an Indiana regiment, forget the number,
that attempted to lead the army in, but did
not Gen. G. f. Smith would let none but
the I'd Iowa lead the van into the fort
IF Comrade Parshall will remember, be-
tween the main fort and the position the Cd
Iowa held was deep ravine, through which
the enemy passed, and took up position on
the high ground which bounded its opposite
side. Colonel Tuttle promptly formed his
regimen and moved against them. 1t was
then that the Indiana regiment came up,
and seeing US coming down the hill little
in order to geta better position, fired into u.s.
Col. futile waved his sword for them to
cease firing, but they would not. They
thought we were rebs charging them. They
stopped firing after while. Gen. Smith
took the I'd Iowa in the fort in the advance"
