THE THIRD VIRGINIA.
Arrangements Effected for Sending
Stranded Soldiers Home

stranded Soldiers Home
Richmond, Va, Sept. 13.-Arrangements
have been made by Acting Adjutant Gen.
eral 10 Lane Stern. by which the strand
ed members of the Third Virginia Regi-
ment will be enabled to return home and
spend their thirty days furIough. Col
Stern's office was today crowded with the
soldiers VINO were forced to remain here
when their comrades, who happened to
have the money necessary to pay rail-
road fares. bade good-by TO Richmond
and left them behind The colonel seeing
no other way out of the difficulty tele-
sraphed TO the general passenger agent
of the Norfolk and Western Railroad at
Roanoke and asked If the soldiers could
not be transported over his line, and bills
made out against the State to be paid by
special appropriation which the Iegisla-
ture would be urged to make. Mr.. BeviH,
the agent, telegraphed that such an ar
rangement would be satisfactory. The
Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad has also
consented to transport any of the men
over their line, and so probably within
twentyfour hours the weary-Iooking SOL
diers who have for several days past
been so much in evidence on our streets
will be at their respective homes.
The colored soldiers at Camp Corbin
were removed from there today and
started on their way to Knoxville. Tenn.

COL. ANDEL UNDER ARREST.
A Sensational Feature of the Fourth
Illinois Trouble.

Jacksonville. Fla, Sept. 13.-A surprise
was sprung on Col Caslmir Andel, of the
Fourth Illinois Regiment. yesterday af-
ternoon in the form of an order from
Gen Hubbard, of the Third Division,
for his arrest and incarceration in quar-
ters
1t was issued because officers of the
Fourth had filed charges against the col
lionel, alleging ineompetency. ignorance of
military rules. discipline and custom.
1t is also charged that horses were kept
at Government expense in the name of
the chaplain. The latter says he never
had horse. Other matters are brought
in also.
The trouble in the Fourth arose in Au-
gust, when four officers, Lieut.. Col Nc
Williams, Majors Lang, Bennett and Ell
liott, wired Gov Tanner. saying that
most of the officers of the Fourth desired
to remain here and that 80 per cent of
the enlisted men were of the same mind.
When these kilograms were printed Col
Andel issued an order for the arrest of all
four. but only Majors Lang. Bennett and
Elliott could be arrested, as McWilliams
was division field officer and defied An
del.
Charges We're filed by Andel against
Lang and Bennett seventeen days after
their arrest. Major Elliott being releas-
ed. They were kept in their tents, and
up 10 eighteen days since their arrest no
| trial has taken place. Doubtless they
will be released tomorrow, as the time
for trial has expired
Major Lang will take command of the
regiment as senior officer, as McWnliams
cannot leave his present position
The Fourth has been badly demoralized
since the fight began. Andel wanted the
regiment mustered out, according to the
! officers, and did all possible to make
them discoutented. He made them do ex-
ira work in camp. When the question of
going home came up he worked to get
| the regiment disbanded, and was angry
with the officers for trying to keep the
men here. Seeing that they had wired
the governor. he attempted to get even.
Major Elliott has asked for a court of
| inquiry
Since the eoIoneFs arrest many of the
men have seen the majors and assured
| them of their hearty willingness to bring
| the regiment back TO It's former condi-
| ton. over $50 sick-in-quarters men re-

small stream in Prince Edward
County, Virginia, which follows the
track of the Richmond & Danville
Railroad and cmpties into the Apo

There was only handful of my

summit Of the hill which skirts it's
eastern bank l turned to see if tho
Federals-who had been hotly pursu-
ing us-were in view AS l did so I
observed a man wearing the uniform
of Confederate officer ride slowly
along the precipitous side of the stream
opposite US, and evidently searching
for IA crossing
"At this moment q long steel timed
blue line of Federal infantry crowned
the hill above, in full view and within
easy range Of the horseman. Appa-
rently abandoning all hope of cscape,
the latter turned and rode directly to-
wards the enemy's line. AS we
watched him. breathless with anxiety
lest the signal of surrender should be
COO long delayed, he suddenly wheeled
about, put spurs to his horse, and
dashing down the dcclivity, cleared
the stream with bound.
Not a shot was fired at the bold
rider. As he reached the opposite
bank spontaneous shout went up
from the whole line-a generous trib-
ute from the brave to the brave. a

was in the midst of US, and we recog-
nizcd in him Gen. James 4. Walker.
