part of the State.
The Virginia Convention adopted the
Ordinance of Secession April II, but
decided that the form should be gone

people. Jefferson Davis began sending
troops from the Cotton States into Vir-

systematic organization looking to a di-
fectly defensive policy. He did not en-
courage the Zealots who were in {. fer
ment for an advance upon Washing

each County to call out, organize and
drill the militia, collect materials and
military stores, ana put the County
generally n a condition to respond to
any appeal made to il for assistance in
the coming war. Companies sprang up
everywhere. which were consolidated
into regiments, dotting the State with
camps at every prominent gathering
place. Obeying what seemed TO be the
spirit of the times, these camps and
organizations constantly drifted nearer
to Washington, to guard the Potomac

The movement of the Virginia troops
necessarily attracted the attention of
Gen. Scott and his officers, and meas

cation of the Potomac, the river tum-

and the walls of the canyon are so near
together that it is possible to connect
them by tEo long bridges standing high

The Country Mourned.


The whole country mourned intensely
and commemorative services were held
quite generally at differen5 places in the
North.
Subscriptions for a monument at once
began to flow in, but the best monu-
ment was the 44th n. Y, the Ellis
worth Avengers" or the Peoples Ellis
worth Regiment which was recruited
under the auspices of the Ellsworth AS
ISOLATION. The original plan was to
enlist from every ward and town of the
State one picked man, and in this way,
tho the plan was not rigidly adhered to,
a most superior class of recruits was
obtained. The regiment made a mag
nificent record, belonged to the Fifth
Corps, and is among FoX's 300 fighting
regiments, having lost 1872 killed, or
ia per cent of its total enrolment
The event was of the highest signifi-
canoe in showing the intensity with
which both sides were entering into the
war. On the Union side Ellsworth was
everywhere held up as a bright, shining
martyr to the Cause and an example for
other young men in the country to imi-
tate, while in the South Jackson was
made the typical Virginia hero, vindi-
eating with his life the honor of the
sacred soil, his flag and his private
property. His widow and children were
asserted to be the care of the Confed-
eracy, and subscriptions solicited to
erect monument to him.
