troops charged forward, swept over
the abates and breastworks, demoraliz-
ing the enemy and taking 1000 prison

these the confederates riddled the small
force of union troops. But with bull

Tough it out in the bloody angle, the

breastworks poured the merciless vol

hind the protection of the salient.
Time after time did Lee try to regain
his ground and charge after charge was
repulsed. In this terrible maelstrom of
slaughter was engaged the celebrated
Irish Brigade which fought with des-
perate stubborness. The reinforce
ments rushing in encountered the
wounded of this brigade walking or be-

cause of the important part played
there by the 9th Michigan, and that
was the explosion of the celebrated
mine and the charge on the crater by
the 9th corps. A mine, the scheme of
Colon ell Henry Peasants of the 4Sth
Pennsylvania, had been constructed
from the union lines to point under
one of the enemy's forts. AS early as
the 18th of June the 9th corps had been
drawn up within 100 yards of the con-
federate lines. General Burnside fav-
ored the scheme of blowing up the con-
federate fort but he was hampered in
his operations by the opposition of
General Meade. The main gallery OF
this mine was $40 feet in length with
lateral galleries at the end 81 and 3S
feet long respectively, right and left. 1t
was the plan of General Burnside to
send the division known as the "Black

REUNION OF 9TH MICH. INFY.
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.


To follow through the course o f the
great rebellion the story of any one
brave union soldier would give ample
and alluring material for a volume,
and to record the deeds of gallantry,
the hardships and the perils of sim
gle union regiment forms task fit in its
scope for the American historian. 1t
would be truly vain attempt for me in
the progress of few moments to try
to circumscribe in narrative the check
cred experience of the 9th Michigan
Infantry. But only shall try to search
out from those most thrilling times a
few OF the most Hateful days of all, and
in brief bear to your minds thoughts of
them. 1t was in the darkest days of the
civil war, when from every direction
i'll omened sounds came to northern ears
OF southern victory and northern defeat,
when the President was downcast, tried
and discouraged, when anxious eyes
scanned hasty head lines bringing not
joyous news but sorrow and M burning,
indeed the Valley Forge of the rebellion
when from northern firesides came the
reserve force of the nation, held back for
this single extremity.
The apparently hopeless sci &c of
Vicksburg was in progress and Lee was
plunging northward on his last great
effort at northern invasion when the
9th Michigan was ushered into active
service to meet and help to overcome
the last gasping, desperate struggle of
the short lived confederacy. Joined to
the 9th corps they swelled the forces
pounding at the gates of Vicksburg and
witnessed one of the greatest victories
OF that greatest of American generals
General Grant. The capture of Vicks-
burg was the debut of this great chief.
tain, and as for the first time we hear
his name rung through the nation with
highest praise do the deeds Of the 9th
come to light. The fortune and the
career of this general and of this regi-
ment seem inseparably linked together
for from this time on scarcely without
exception were they under his COM
mand. The regiment joined the forces
of Grant in the latter days of June 1853.
There had been months spent in at
tempting to capture by storm this
American Gibraltar. There had been
the many attempts to reach the rear
through mprass and bayou, the running
of the fleet past the batteries on the
heights amid the torrent of flame, shot
and shell and finally the sitting down
around about in patient and tireless
seige waiting for the surrender sure to
come. Then followed the days of suff-
ering and starvation to the people pen.

and pasted on his back a plaster. but
it brought no relief. On investigation, ne
found he had it too far down, so he
bought new one and put it on just
above the other. When last seen he
was ready to invest again if the second
doesn't do the work He says he will
hit the right spot if he has to shingle
himself with porus plasters.

1t is not probable that there will be
any further reduction in fares between
Astoria and Portland. although nothing
is certain in a rate war. If there is to
be another decapitation, none of the
transportation companies representa-

it. Extremely low fares cannot be prof
itable to the companies. They upset
business and induce people to travel
who cannot afford to travel even free

an uncomfortable month for school,

to end the third term on the 3Oth of that
month. The assignment of teachers and
principals for the coming term will be
