The Mcclellan Cap.

Editor National Tribune: 1t appears
that there is a great deal Of dissatisfac-
ton among the veterans that the sculp-
tor has put a SLOUGH hat on Gen. Nc
Clellan in his model of the equestrian
statue to be placed at Washington, d.
C. They are absolutely justified, and
should keep kicking. I do not believe
a soldier Of the Army of the Potomac
ever saw him wear other than cap,
and a straight, trim, French model one
at that.
The cap was the regulation fatigue
head-dress of the infantry Of his army.
There was the black full-dress hat, a
reflex of the Kossuth Juror, which some
of the soldiers would use for everyday
wear by removing the ornaments and
black side plume. also punching few
air-holes near the crown; it was found
to be more comfortable in the rain and
severe heat than the close cap. But for
any kind Of a ceremony the cap was
the requirement.
The first organization that put in an
appearance with the hat was the fam
Gus Pennsylvania Reserves, the Buck
tails" who wore it on all occasions. As
the campaigns went on there was a
much less rigid requirement for uni
formity in dress, when the demand for
the hat asserted itself without regard
to color or shape. Many had brown
felt hats sent from home almost pre-
cisely like the present campaign hat.
In 1854 the rebels were issued a soft
English-made gray hat, and although
the crown was too low, they were worth
picking up after a skirmish. So the
headwear in 1863 and 1854 was of a
rather nondescript character. although
some never wore else than the regula-
ton cap during their whole service, as
being more soldier-like in appearance.
To conclude, on Nov. 10, 1862, in
front of the Warren Green Hotel, at
Warrenton, Va, Gen. Mcclellan bade
farewell to the Army Of the Potomac.
1t was an affecting scene, as he was
personally beloved by every one of that
army. I quote from the journal of
Fred Vogel. Of the U. S. Engineer Bat
talon: "None appeared to be ashamed
to show his feelings at parting with the
lean army. At last the time came for
and in company with about so officers
and the usual escort of the 9Th u. S.
Cav, he rode away. At starting the
band played Hail to the Chief" the
officers remaining gave three cheers.
when lot of us private soldiers gave
him three deafening cheers, upon which
he looked back, taking off his cap, gave
us last bow and smile"
First and last and all the time Gen.
Mcclellan in the field wore cap, and
under a SLOUGH hat his bronze counter
part will not be Gen. George B. Nc
Clellan," or typical Of that period in
the evolution of the uniform of the
American soldier in the year of 1862

An Execution at Bardstown. Ky.

Editor National Tribune: I see In

messed during my service, one of which
i'm the presence Of over 5000 troops.
While i'm camp at Bardstown, KY, in
the Spring Of 1862, one Calhoun, be-
longing to Co. A Of our regiment, went
out to Mr.. Sutherland, short distance
from camp, and shot young porker.
should report him, which he did the
same day. Calhoun was tried by drum
head court-martial, and ordered to walk
up and down before the Colonel's tent
for "a hours with rail on his back.
He swore vengeance against Sutherland.
and was heard by different persons.
After his sentence was satisfied he load
ed his gun, started out through the regi-
mental guard, went down the road, and
saw Mr.. Sutherland in the field feeding
his hogs. He very deliberately rested
his rifle on the fence, fired and killed
Sutherland. No one heard the shot or
saw the act. His body was found by
his family, but no clew as to who COM
mitted the crime. Chaplain Price. OF
our regiment, took the matter up, and
finally ran the murderer to earth, in
spite of his Captains efforts to shield
the civil authorities tried sentenced to
be hung, turned over to the military,
and was executed. The afternoon OF
the execution the Fourth Division and
part of Woods Division were drawn up
around the scaffold. Our regiment
marched out without arms and formed
a hollow square next to the scaffoid.
The condemned man was driven to the
place of execution sitting on his coffin,
with a bundle of papers i'm his hand.
which proved to be his confession. He
mounted the scaffold with a firm step,
and asked permission to talk to the reg
iment, which was granted. His talk, in
substance, was that whisky and bad as
scciations had brought him to where he
was. and advised his old comrades to
eschew both; said his sentence was just,
and bade us all good-by The black
cap was drawn over his face after he
had made and adjusted the moose him
self and tried 1t to see that it worked
smoothly; the Lieutenant in charge was
so nervous he was unable to make the
moose properly. AT the given signal the
trap-door was sprung and he was
launched into eternity. He died with
out struggle. Thus passed away a
man who according to his own con-
fession, was the murderer of seven men.
After his execution his confession was
published in pamphlet form. While we
were in camp at Charleston, W. Va,
two men were killed in a row one night,
but it was never known how they met
death or who the guilty party was till
the confession of Calhoun made it all
plain.
