merry twinkle every now and again In his eye
when talking with the Queen shows the perfect
understanding between them. They share all
one anothers tastes. occupations. interests and
smusements in the same way as did Queen
Victoria and the Prince Consort OF England.
Queen Wilheimina even accompanies him on his
shooting expeditions. and insists upon his being
by her side when she transacts official business,
whether 1t be receiving her ministers signing
and reading state documents, or presiding al
council. Like Prince Albert. he acts the
chief adviser and principal confdant OF his wife,
and so completely has public feeling changed
toward him that the Dutch view this no longer
with suspicion. but with satisfaction. For. by
means of a patience and tact OF which few be-
ieved him capable at the tms Of mis- marriage.
he has managed to completely aIlay all Dutch
fears as to his pro-German proclivities, and to
convince his wife's people of his entire devotion
to her interests and to theirs. In fact he is no
longer looked upon by them rs a German, but
with the utmost good will and favor a Dutch
man.
How fond the Queen is OF her husband was
shown in a striking way not so very long ago.
when all the arrangements which had been
made for an official visit of the prince to the
Dutch East Indies were countermanded at the
last minute by the Queens orders, because she
could not bear the idea Of the separation of the
several weeks from her husband which the trip
to the Orient would have involved She did
this in spite Of the pleas Of her ministers that
tour oy the prince through her colonies which
have been so many years without seeing any
member Of the reigning house, would be Of great
political advantage. and would scarcely have
taken such a step had there been even the
faiutest bit Of truth in the stories current abroad
to the effect that she is unhappy in her married
life EX-ATTACHE.

The following account of the IA
nous Battle of Spotsylvania, which
is taken from the Magnolia News,
will doubtless prove very interesting
to readers of The Dispatch, as several
Columbia participated in the fight.
The regiment of which the late DR..
F. H. Erwin was surgeon was in the
fray, and Mr.. John Alexander, who
is now citizen of Columbus, was
also engaged in the fight:
On the morning of the 18th day of
May, 1864, Harris Mississippi bri-
gade had slept on the side of the road
in the mud. Just when it became
bright enough to see fairly we'll a
courier rode up and asked in an ex-
cited way, Where is Gen. Harris -
Gen. Harris said, Here I am" He
said, Attention; fall in line The
cans of mush on the fire were snatch
ed up, guns and accoutrements were
buckled on, and in five minutes the
brigade was going down the road at
a dobule quick. Soon they came with
in sound of musketry. Pretty soon
they saw wounded men being brought
out, and learned that Johnston's bri-
gade, which had occupied the angle
at Spotsylvania, had given way and
the Confederate line broken. Soon
the brigade was halted between a
fierce artillery duel, and every man
with the instinct of a soldier lay fiat
on the ground
1t was then Gen. Lee came riding
up, accompanied by his staff, and as
he struck the head of our brigade
a shell passed over his body of at
tendants, killing a horse and wound
ing one of his staff. The soldiers
crowded around Gen. Lee, filled with
the deepest love and admiration. He
rode out toward us, a little from his
staff, and we saw that he was going

THE BATTLE OF SPOTTSYLVANIA

Gen. Harris then gave the COM
mand, Fall in line. Forward
Word was passed rapidly, and in
a few moments Harris brigade swung
over the hill, through the smoke of
battle and the falling rain in de-
termined charge.
We pressed forward, not knowing
the country at all, or where we were
to meet the enemy; and as we came
up through a field TO strip OF woods
a tremendous volley was fired at us.
Nine men in Company c, which was
the extreme left of the regiment, fell
dead. There was almost equal fatal
ity throughout the Sixteenth Missis-
sippi Seven men We're killed in Com
pany K, but with the words of Gen.
Lee ringing in our ears, we raised a
yell and rushed right at the enemy.
They attempted 70 stand at the breast
works, but our fire was SO deadly and
our charges so determined that they
fell back, and We took the position.
We had hardly time to throw the
wounded back of the ditch, when,
with a huzzah, the enemy charged TO
retake the works.
The breastworks We're slippery and
muddy, and the ditch was over ankle
deep in mud. With splendid courage
the Federal soldiers climbed up the
slippery embankment, only to meet
| death from the guns and bayonets OF
the Confederates. The Federal line
seemed to evaporate.
1t was only short distance from
the breastwOrks to the decline OF
the hill, and under that cover the
Federal line was reformed. BY the
time that we had succeeded in load
ing our guns and the guns of our fal-
/ len comrades they were back at Us
again.
The battle flag of the Sixteenth
Mississippi was right in the angle OF
the salient. The enemy scrambled
up the embankment and planted the

York right on the top of the embank-
ment, but the man that held the Con

less desperate.

ICSS utSpeIdlc-
The soldiers were so weary that
a man would shoot his guns, load
them all, throw himself in the bloody
mud and sleep for a few minutes in
all the din and horror of the battle.
Our suffering was terrific; not a
mouthful of food, nor drop of wa
ter, had we had since early in the
morning-in fact, no one thought of
either food or water.
A soldier from the Twelfth Missis-
sippi came from the left to see how
we were faring: he sat down on the
edge of the ditch to talk to the boys,
when bullet struck him in the head.
He sank down on the ground, and we
could plainly see the brains and blood
ooZe out of the wound. We thought
he was dead, but he put his hand in
his pocket, took out his handkerchief
and wiped his forehead. Then he put
his hand in his pocket again and took
out piece of tobacco and died at
tempting to take a chew. That was
the most singular thing | ever saw in
, my life.
Just before morning, orders were
passed up the line from the lett to
draw out the troops by the left along
the breastworks. We marched out
for a mile, following the embank-
ment for short distance, then turn
! ed to the left and marched about a
mile through the woods, halting in a
pine thicket. The line of breastworks
had been changed and the salient
cut out.
We were so covered with bloody
mud, our faces covered with powder,
through which the rain had trickled
in streaks, that we looked like a lot
of painted devils. 1t was hard to
| recognize one another.
We washed our faces in a pool of
| water and then found that some food
, had been prepared for us-fried ba-
con and corn dodgers. Sitting upon
the ground we managed to eat few
| mouthsfuls, but no man was hungry,
and every man wept. But one man
| in the company was without the mark
of bullet upon his person or upon
his clothes.
Bill West wore a skull cap into the
fight; his pants were tucked into his
| socks, and his blanket rolled up and
acress his left shoulder and tied, SOL
| dier-fashioned, under his right arm.
A bullet had cut the top of his cap
| down to his hair; another bullet,
| coming from the left, had cut off one
| side of the rim of his cap, and the
| other side had been cut off by a bull
let coming from the right, leaving a
/ little point of leather. A fourth bull
| let had split the cap just above his
right ear The blanket over his left
| shoulder, his pants and socks on his
/ left leg, just above the ankle, and
| his jacket and pants right at the hip,
had been cut by bullets, and another
had struck him fair over a pack of
cards. When we took the pack OF
| cards out of his pocket the ffattended
/ bullet fell TO the ground; his side
was terribly bruised, and he had been
knocked down by the force of the
| bullet. A last shot had cut off the
| tip end of his right ear, drawing a
few drops of blood.
In the early morning of the 18th
we were moved around still further
TO the left, to body of woods. One
order was given, Break ranks and
every soldier of Harris Mississippi
brigade threw himself on the ground
and was instantly asleep.

pronounced it local disease and pre-

treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
