SHERMAN'S MEMOIRS.
fCoutinued from, irst Da1e.l

A woman and child were killed out
right; two or three men were also killed,
and several others were wounded The
great mass of the people on that occasion
were simply curious spectators, though
men we're sprinkled through the crowd
calling out, Hurrah for jeff Davis +"
and others were particularly abusive Of
the " damned Dutch" Lyon posted
guard in charge of the vacant camp,
and marched his prisoners down to the
Arsenal; some were paroled, and others
held, till afterward they were regularly
exchanged.
APPOINTED COLONEL OF THE 18th o. 8.
A very few days after this event,
May Ia, | received dispatch from my
brother Charles in Washington, telling
me to come at once that had been
appointed Colonel of the 18th Regular
Inf, and that l was wanted at Washing
ton Immediately.
Of course 1 could no longer defer
action. 1 saw Mr.. Lucas, Maj. Turner,
and other friends and parties connected
with the road, who agreed that should
go ON. left my family, because was
under the impression that / would be
allowed to enlist my own regiment,
which would take some time, and I ex-
pected to raise the regiment and organ
ize it at Jefferson Barracks / repaired
to Washington, and there found that
the Government was trying to rise to
level with the occasion. Mr.. Lincoln
had, without the sanction Of law,
authorized the raising of 10 new regi-
ments of Regulars, each infantry regi-
ment to be composed of three battalions
of eight companies each; and had called
for $4,000 State volunteers. Even this
call seemed to be utterly Inadequate;
still, it was none of my business. took
the oath of office, and was furnished with
a list of officers, appointed to my regi
ment, which was still incomplete. re-
ported in person to Gen. Scott, at his
office on Seventeenth street, opposite the
War Department, and applied for
authority to return West, and raise my
regiment at Jefferson Barracks, but the
General said my Lieutenant-Colonel,
Burbank, was fully qualified to superin-
tend the enlistment, and that he wanted
me there; and he at once dictated an
order for me to report to him IN person
for inspection duty.
Satisfied that / would not be permitted
to return to St. Louis, instructed Mrs.
Sherman to pack up, return to Lancas-
ter, and trust to the fate of war.
I also resigned my place as President
of the Fifth Street Railroad, to take
effect at the end of May, so that in fact
l received pay from that road for only
two months service, and then began my
new army career.

prairie, all at once the ground in front
of us seemed suddenly to drop below
the general level to the depth of two or
three hundred feet. Yet it was not all
pone. for as far as we could see in all
directions, except back over our own
track. there were mounds, hills, buttes,
or whatever you want to call them.
The tops of some of these mounds came
up to the level of the prairie we were
standing on, while others were not SO
high. They were all kinds of shapes
and colors, from snow-white to dark-red.
The accepted theory among US for these
peculiar formations of
MOTHER EARTH
was that some time immense bodies or
veins of coal had burned over this tract,
causing the thin crust of earth to sink
from the surrounding country, leaving
mounds where there were rocks instead
of coal. This was the greatest natural
curiosity / ever saw, and furnished an
interesting subject that night for our
camp on its edge.
The next day was hot and dusty, and
we were engaged principally in making
roads. which took us 10 miles into the
Bad Lands.
