Never again shall a conqueror's tread

No tears and no fears could then hold

At the Old Rebel Capital.

After four or five days we crossed the
Alabama River on pontoonS, and start
ed for Montgomery, the Capital of Ala
hama and at one time the Capital of
the C. S. A. We arrived there about
April 10. The city surrendered without
any fighting. and we marched thru the
principal streets, four abreast, with
banners flying and bands playing. 1t was
truly a fine display.
We did not linger, but were just in
motion. and marched for Columbus,
Ga, which was captured after hard
tight by the Sd Ohio Cav. The long
bridge across the Chattahoochee River
WAS saved, and we crossed into the
city.
Our march was resumed next day for
Macon. 1t was two or three days after
leaving Columbus that we learned of
the assassination of President Lincoln
and of the armistice between Gen.
Sherman and Gen. Johnston. Some of
our scouts went into Macon, and l think
two were killed. Our command camped
in and around the city of Macon for
some time. one evening we received
orders 10 be ready to march early next
morning for Chattanooga and home.
3 We were marched about mile from
camp and halted in a field. Guards
were thrown around the regiment. and
each company was searched for -Valua-
bIes that had been taken on the raid.
When our company was searched MOTH
ing was found on the boys. The next
morning some of the boys went back
and dug up some watches, silver cups,
$40 gold pieces, etc. comrade and L
were going from the city out to camp
one day, and met an ambulance with
guards surrounding it. Inside were two
men, and we were informed that one of
them was Jefferson Davis.
About the middle Of May we started

of the Flag that Congress Should
Prohibit.
While we are getting ready to cele-
brate the birthday anniversary of the
Flag, let us also work with might and
main to prevent that Flag from in
credible desecration, unthinkable and
almost uncomfortable uses. In a recent
hearing before the Committee on Mill
tary Affairs of the House, brought about
by Mrs. Isabel Worrell Ball. Chairman
of the National Committee of the
Woman's Relief Corps, there was a
great outpouring of patriotism, and not
single dissenting voice to the opinion
that there should be National protec-
ton of the Flag. The hearing was pre-
sided over by Judge Moon, of the Com
mittee, and the bill was in charge of
Judge Goulden, of New York, author
Of the bill, who made a brief opening
address, Among the best speeches
made in support of the bill was that
of Mrs. Kate B. Sherwood, Past Ma
tional President of the Woman's Relief
Corps. The Chairman of the Committee
complimented Mrs. Sherwood on her
logical legal reasoning, and classed Mrs.
Ball as a close second in her advocacy
Of the bill. He also promised these
ladies that there should be report of
the Committee to the House.
Splendid speeches Were made by
Comrade Washington Gardner Repre-
sentative from Michigan; Col. Ralph
Prime. Mayor Mawson, Department
Commander of the District Spanish
War Veterans; Hon. w. V. Cox, of the
Washington Board of Trade, whose
uncle introduced the first Flag bill
over so years ago; Representative
Bradley, of New York; Col. John Nc
Elroy and many others.
Following are some of the horrible
ndignities to the Flag to which the
speakers objected. Read them, and
then lombard your members in Con-
gress and in the United States Senate
to support q bill that will make such
use of the Flag q punishable offense
thruout the Union.-1sabel Worrell

it against a post. The gun exploded,
the charge tearing a great hole in the
Captains uniform. The.rest of the gar
rison was waiting and Immediately sur
rendered.
At this time there was no line or
formation. There was another fort still
held by the rebels, farther north. There
were perhaps 100 men of us there. We
started towards it with a yell. The
Johnnies who could mounted their ar
tillery horses and made good their es-
cape.
The crowd went still farther until it
came to the main road running into
Selma. Here Col. Veil, of the 18th
Ind, succeeded in forming us in line.
While we were forming there was a
Surgeon of high rank killed near US. l
never learned his name. BY this time
it was getting dusk, and suddenly there
was brisk firing in our rear and the
balls were coming uncomfortably near.
Some of the officers raised handker-
chiefs on their swords and the firing
ceased. 1t was the 4th U. S. Cav. COM
ing, and they looked grand. Right after
them came the 4th Regular Band, play
ing the Red, White and Blue" Then
there was more yelling. When / found
Capt. owen Wiley's company that night
he did not have many of the boys with
him.
The next morning some OF us went
back to look over the ground where we
made the charge. 1 counted eight of
the 123d boys lying in a row. One was
Lieut.. McManus, of Co. G. Our Colonel,
Jonathan Biggs, was shot and was sup
posed to be mortally wounded, but
afterward recovered. I counted about
II of the 18th Ind. lying where they
fell. The 18th charged over higher
ground and I think there was bat
terry in their immediate front, hence
their loss was heavier than that of the
123d l don't recall the losses of the
9Sth Ill. or 72d Ind. We remained in
and around Selma three or four days,
