fmIY1F the city of Charleston, the
I8l Il cradle of the southern upris-
hG@MnS1 ing in 1861, held out against
k2SYssaD northern attacks till near the
end of the long war, it was not for lack
of enterprise in the camps of the Fed
erals. Attempts to take Charleston by
land were never pushed to the extreme
of grand battle, but desperate and
picturesque encounter was fought il

Oct. %, 1862
Early in the summer Of 1862 General
0. M. Mitchell was sent from the west
to command the Federal army lying al
Hilton head, the entrance of Port Roy
al sound. Savannah, below Charleston,
was blockaded by the Federals in Fort
Pulaski, as Charleston was by the Fed
eral navy. Hilton head, between the
two harbors, gave the Federals control
of the coast. 1t occurred to General
MitchePs active brain that force
might push inland from Hilton head,
cut the railroad between Savannah
and Charleston and open the way for a
land attack upon both cities.
General Mitchell was succeeded in
October by General ]. NJ. Brannan,
who set out to fulfill the plans Of his
former chief. The expedition moved in
two attachments on Oct. %. Taking
two brigades, with corps Of engineers
and artillerymen, Brannan sailed the

The Nick In the Lspel.

You who have been wearing coats
and vests since childhood have per
haps never stopped to consider the nick
in the lapel. A controversy is now in
progress on the other side of the At
lantic as to how this originated. The
following ingenious explanation has at
length been offered:
1t is said that when Napoleon drst
felt the sway of ambition he tried to
implicate General Moreau in Piche-
gru's conspiracy. Moreau had been
Napoleon's superior and was exceed
ingly popular, but under the circum-
stances, with the man Of destiny in
power, it was not safe to express pub
licly sympathy with Moreau. His adj
mirers and supporters quietly agreed
TO nick their coat lapels to show their
fellowship, the outlines of the coat,
after the nick was made, forming the
letter M. Moreau was exiled by Ma
poleon and lived in Morrisville Pa.
