DAY WITH coLoRED TROOPS.
The Test of Negro Mette in the Fight
of the Crater.

July 80, 1864, was red-letter day in
the life of the writer of this remi-
niscence, writes a correspondent of
National Tribune. On this day his
regiment, the Thirtieth United States
colored troops, led the charge of the
colored division at the battle of the
Mine. Col. Delevan Bates was shot
through the head with mimic ball,
was given medal of honor for distin-
guished services, and on his return
from the hospital was made briga-
dier-general of volunteers by brevet
and assigned to duty according to his
brevet rank, which position was hon
orably filled until his muster-out in
December, 1865.
The Thirtieth U. 8. c. T. was organ
ized at Camp Belger, Baltimore in the
early part of the year 1864, from the
colored people, and most of the re-
cruits had been slaves until the eman-
cipation proclamation of President
Lincoln made them free. The commits
sion of the colonel was dated March
l, 1864, and was signed by G. A. Dana,
assistant secretary of war.
The regiment was well officered,
every one from the colonel in COM
mand to the second lieutenant of Co.

LEES LOST ORDER.
1t Was Found by Some Pickets from
the Twenty-Seventh Indiana.

Having had a hand in McClellan's
famous fiasco in Maryland, in Septem-
ber, 1862 | am naturally very much in
terested in your account of it, pub
lished in the National Tribune,
writes Capt. Balsley, Company H
Twenty-seventh Indiana. You seem
to be in doubt as to how Gen.
Lees famous order, 191, got into the
hands of Gen. Mcclellan, and may not
be averse to being enlightened on that
subject AS / am cognlzant of the
facts in the case, l will give them to
you just as they transpired. On that
fateful September 13, 1862, at about
nine o'clock a. M, Sergt. Qater Capt)
John M. Bloss, Corpl. B. w. Mitchell
and Private David B. Vance, all q
Company F, Twenty-seventh Indiana,
were lying down at picket post be-
hind clump of bushes just outside
Frederick City, Md. After being there
a short time Sergt. Bloss raised up,
and in looking around saw an en-
velop in the high grass, and asked
Mitchell to pass it over to him. Mitch
ell picked it up and passed it to Vance,
who was lying next to him, and in do
ing so two cigars dropped out of the
envelope. Vance at once passed it to
Sergt, Bloss, who, being an educated
young man, saw Immediately that it
was an important document, and hur-
ried with it to Col. Colgrove, who was
in command of the regiment, not more
than half mile away, Col. Colgrove,
on reading it, recognized it's impor-
tance, and in turn hurried it to Gen.
Mcclellan, who received it not later
than 11:30 o'clock on that day. This
is the true story of the finding of Gen.
Lees lost order No. 191, and to sub
stantiate this statement l refer you
to Capt. David B. Vance, Company G,
Twenty-seventh Indiana, Brownstown.
Jackson county, Ind; Lieut.. Col. (then
Capt.) John r. Fesler, S22 Fletcher
avenue, indianapolis, Ind, and l trust
you will confer with them, especially
Capt. Vance, who was one of the star
performers in this eventful episode.
and the only one of the trio now liv-
ing.

London, Eng.-India is a source
of uneasiness to the British govern

difficulty with the Mohmands seemed
on the eve of settlement when on
Saturday an attempt was made by an
Afghan force numbering from 10000
to 10000 which crossed the border,
divided into two bodies, to seize the
blockhouses in Khyber Pass near
Landikhotal. The attacks were re-

the British, but the Afghans remained

When the baby was three weeks
Told they said that omi could come

carried her down. She laughed SO
much that I had to laugh, too.
"Why!" she said. Here's my old
laughing Jimmy come back again! l
thought I'd lost him"

lately; and had my reasons; but l
didn't want to talk about them. So

warfare, and passed creditable ex-
animation as to the proficiency in the
army regulations, the tactics and
management of troops in the field.
When Petersburg was reached the
colored troops were placed on the
firing line in front of the confederate
army of northern Virginia, the best
troops the confederates had in the
field during the entire war. The dis
tance from our lines to the confeder-
ate lines was but a few hundred feet;
both lines were well intrenched:
breastworks, bomb proofs, covered
ways and abatis, as was best suited
for the surroundings, were seen on
every side, and an irregular but con-
tinuous firing was kept up both night
and day for weeks and weeks. Each
side was ever on the alert for what
the other might try to do. Finally
confederate battery was undermined,
blown up and an assault made on the
enemy's works. This assault was the
last against the confederate lines for a
long series commencing May 5, and all
of them against a ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
foe These charges were all desperate
and bloody, and, including the one in
which the colored division participat-
ed on July 30, it is safe to say the
total loss to the union army was at
least 10000 men, large army of killed
and wounded, and yet with no decisive
results.
The mine was $40 feet in length,
and at the terminus under the con-
federate works had side galleries
about 35 feet in length. In these gal
leries were placed 800 kegs of pow
der of 25 pounds each, 5000 pounds.
strongly tamped and connected togeth-
er with wooden tubes half filled with
powder. Three fuses were run back
about 100 feet, and the main gallery
was filled with earth and well
tamped for about 80 feet. The origi-
nal plan of attack was for the colored
troops to advance Immediately after
the explosion, and when the crater
was reached the leading regiment
should turn to the right and proceed
as far as possible down the enemy's
line, the second regiment turn to the
left and sweep down the line in that
direction, the remaining regiments of
the division to advance rapidly
through the gap in the confederate
line toward the city of Petersburg,
to be followed by the other divisions
of the army as soon as they could be
rushed in.
Morning came and with it change
in the program. A consultation of the
leading generals had been held dur.
ing the night and it was decided to
let the white troops take the initiative
after the explosion of the mine.
The explosion of the mine was a sue
cess. The crater made by the explo-
sion of 5000 pounds of gunpowder
was 1875 feet long, 81 feet broad and
80 feet deep. Two hundred and sew
enty-eight men were buried in the
ruins. To add to the terror of the
scene, the union forces commenced
bombarding with ITO cannon and NOR
tars. Elliott's confederate brigade near
the craterwere panicstricken and fled in
