But do not require journal to refresh
my memory with regard to the events of
those two days of preparation which fol-
lowed their announcement. The Army OF
the Potomac was soon to meet the enemy
for the first time. great battle was to
be fought Nothing could be heard but
the wild cheering of the men, as regiment
after regiment received their orders. The
possibility OF Il defeat never seemed to
enter the mind OF any. All the sick in
camp now were to be sent to Washington,
clothes changed klcpsacks packed, let
tiers written home, packages sent to the
express office, etc. After al was done
everything in readiness, and the sick
men tcnderly laid in the ambulances,
Mrs. b said; Now, let us go to every

bOSomS some cherished relic, and give as

There was one patient, however, we did
not put into an am bfiiance, and who was
great source of anxiety to us. He lay
there upon a Stretcher close by, waiting
to be carried to a house not far distant. He
was young, not H. with clear blue eyes,
curly auburn hair, and broad, white
brow; his mothers pride and an only
son. Two weeks previously he had been
attacked with typhoid fever.
The Surgeon said, You may do all you
can for him. but ii is a hopeless case. -
Mrs. B had devoted most of her tim G
TO him, and | was often called to assist
her. He was delirious and became quite
at times, and it required
all the strength we possessed to keep him
in bed; but now the delirium of fever had
passed away and he was helpless as an
infant. We had written for his mother to
come if possible, and had Just received a

No gloomy forebodings seemed to damp
the spirits of the men for moment, but

echoed as that vast army moved rapid ! y

with Joy the order to encamp for the
night.
Notwithstanding the heat and fatigue
OF the days march, the troops were in
high spirits. and Immediately began pre-
pairing supper. Some built fires Will c
others went in search of and appropriated
every available article that might in any
way add to the comfort of hungry and
fatigued men.
The whole neighborhood was ransacked
for milk, butter, eggs, poultry, etc, which
were found insufficient in quantity to sup
ply the wants of such multitude. There
might have been heard some stray shots
fired in the direction OF a field where a
drove OF cattle were quietly grazing and

Then the Colonel told us how he had.

rode along, and a woman ran out calling

Supper being over, pickets posted, and
camp guards detailed, all became quiet
for the night. Early the next morning the
revejlle beat. The whole camp was soon
IN motion, and after a slight breakfast
from our haver,acks the march was re-
sumed. The day was very hot. and we
found great difficulty in obtaining water,
the want of which caused the troops
much suffering. Many of the men were
sunstruck, and others began to drop out
OF the ranks from exhaustion. All such
as were not able to march were put into
ambulanceS and sent back to Washing
ton.
Toward noon the tedium OF the march
began to be enlivened by sharp volleys or
muSketry-in the direction of the advance
guard; but those alarms were only oc-
casiOned by our skirmishers pouring a
vOliey into everything which looked as il
it might contain a masked battery or q
band of the enemy's sharpshooters.

A PATHETIC INCIDENT
The ambulances started with their
freight OF emaciated, suffering men. Slow
ly that long train wound its way toward
the city, looking like a great funeral pro-
cesSiOn, and sadly we turned to our re-
naming patient, who was deeply affected
at the removal of his comrades. He was
then carried to the house above men
toned and nurse left to take care of
him, while we were obliged to prepare for
our own comfort on the long, weary march
which was so near at hand.
We had Just commenced to pack our
bags, when we heard an unusual
noise as of someone crying piteously, and
going out to learn the cause of the excite
ment, whom should we find but the
mother of our handsome blue-eyed patient.
She had called at the Surgeons tent to
inquire for her son, and he had told her
that all the sick had been sent to Wash
ington, he having forgotten for the moment
the exception with regard to her son.
The first words | heard were spoken in
the most touching manner:
"Oh, why did you send away my boy
wrote you | was coming. Oh, why did
you send him away"
shall never forget the expression of
that mothers face as she stood there
wrinCing her hands and repeating the
question. we very soon rectified the mis-
take which the Surgeon had made, and in
a few moments she was kneeling by the
bedside OF her darling boy, and we re-
turned rejoicing that it had been our
privilege to deliver him to his mother"
The 18th of July dawned bright and
clear, and everything being in readiness,
the Army OF the Potomac took up it's line
OF march for Manassas. In gay spirits
the army moved forward, the air resound-
ing with the music of the regimental
bands and patriotic songs of the soldiers.

Along each side of the tent the sick were
laid on blankets or cots, leaving room to
pass between the beds. In the center OF
the tent stood u temporary board table,
on which were kept books, medicines, etc.
The hospital corps consisted OF Surgeon,
Assistant Surgeon, Hospital Steward,
Ward Master four nurses two cooks, and

of the sick devolved upon those four

A CONNECTION IN HAVANA.

Key West. Fla, March 6.
Strange rumors are current
here of happenings at Havana,
which cannot be confirmed un-
til the arrival of the steamer.
1t is reported that an important
conference Of autonomists has
been held. at which resolutions
were adopted addressed to the
Spanish ministry. asking the
recall of Captain General
Blanco.
1t is stated, too, that bombs
have been exploded in the GUS

doing great damage.
While these rumors are not
confirmed as yet. it is apparent
that something important has
transpired in the Cuban capi-
tai within the last "a hours.

once the object of censure on
the part of Spain and not the
person of Gen. Lee. Some
times the recall of a consul is
called for and when the govern
ment requested refuses to COM
ply then the matter is dropped
The demand for the recall of a
consul is not generally a casus
belll, but in this case it might
lead to war. If Spain should
adhere to its demand for the
recall of Lee, and this govern
ment should refuse to recall
him, then Spain would give him
his exequatur and he would
come home. This would amount
to a declaration of war between
the two countries. situated as
they are towards each other,
though the rules, customs and
laws governing the conduct of
nations toward each other
mightnot generally warrant it"

most conservative senators,

tonight on the subject: "If

the reply of the assistant secre-
tary of state sre correct. as re-
ported, it means that Spain has

A Kentucky Sensatlon

Fulton, KY, March Ga sen
sational shooting occurred near
Harris Station, five miles west Of
this place. today. Three men were
shot and another had his throat
cut.
The trouble arose over a trial
which occurred in this city yester-
day between two of the parties.
Joe Lynch, his son, Bert, Wade
Hardy and j. M. Morris were the
four men implicated in the fight.
1t seems that Hardy and Bert
Lynch fell out over something
pertaining to the trial and came
to blows. Old man Lynch and
Morris started to separate them,
when one of the men gave Morris
Q slash in the throat with a knife.
Norris then drew a pistol and be-
gan shooting. When he had emp
tied the gun he found that he had
shot all three of them. 1t is
thought that none will die, though
the wounds of all were serious. All
four of the men had been drinking.
Hardy was shot in the side. The
Lynches were shot in the breast.
All Of the men are well known in
this community.
