is allowed for a thorough inspection
of the beautiful furnishings and dec
orations of the rooms. During the
sessions of Parliament it is almost i'm
possible to gain admittance as the
accommodation for visitors Is SO lin
tied that members are compelled to
ballot each day for the right Of
issuing visitors tickets. Parliament
usually goes in session about two
o'clock and closes at midnight. The

Early's Division who boasted that they
had never before been repulsed in
charge. They retired with barely six
hundred men and were never known
afterward as an organization.
The intense loyalty of these men to
the Southern cause was shown in an
incident related by a Confederate sur
geon who told the story few days
after the fight. He was pushing his
way through a crowd of idle spec
tators when one of the wounded men
called to him.
Are you a Confederate ?" he In
quired in feeble voice.
Yes. What can / do for you,"
asked the surgeon going to his side.
The man caught hold of the surgeons
arm and said pathetically, What do
you think, DOCTOR l am wounded and
dying in the defense of my country
and these people are trying to make
me take the oath of allegiance to
theirs"
There was something so intensely
loyal in the mans voice and manner
that the crowd moved away in silence
and the surgeon was so overcome that
he dared not speak lest he should
burst into tears. So he merely pressed
the hand of the loyal Southerner upon
whose brow the death shadows were
fast gathering.
Out in a barn which had been
turned into a hospital the nurse was
going his rounds when he came upon
young soldier from the North who
had aided in repulsing the Tigers but
one of their bullets had given him a
mortal wound. He was a manly
young fellow and one who only a few
hours before had been fighting for
his country with all the patriotism and
vigor of youth; but now the strong
arms We're listless and the dark hair
was matted with blood. The nurse
bent over him and at first sight
thought him dead. but the white lips
moved and he whispered
Now / lay me down to sleep

George V used this chamber when he
donned his robe and crown for the
procession which passed through the
Royal Gallery to the House of Lords
There is nothing particularly note
worthy in this Gallery except the
two large frescoes THE Death of Nell
son" and 1.-THE Meeting of Wellington
and Blucher After Waterloo"
1t would be useless to attempt to
describe in detail the beauties of these
apartments, and the writer must be
content to tell only of the things which
seem to please the average traveller
and the House Of Lords Is one of
these. 1t has been called the "Gilded
Chamber" and justly, too, for it is
certainly the most gorgeous apart
ment in the whole building. 1t Is
lighted by twelve stained glass win
dows containing portraits of the Kings
and Queens of England. In the inches
between, the windows are statues of
the barons who compelled King John
to sign Magma Charta. Red morocco
benches are used to seat the five
hundred and fifty noble Lords who
are entitled to seats in the House.

room. On the left is the Queens
throne, and on the right is a lower
throne for the Prince of Wales. The
seats on either side are reserved for
Am bassadors and other distinguished
guests. Directly in front is the Wool
sack" on which the Lord Chancellor
sits, and at the other end is the Bar
:. which the faithful Commons at
tend to hear the speech from the
Throne and to hear the Royal Assent
to the bills which they have passed.
Above are two galleries. small one
for favored visitors and another for
the reporters. The room contains
some remarkable frescoes, among
them heroic symbolical figures Of
Justice, Chivalry and Religion.
The House of Commons is a much
smaller and palmer apartment than
the House of Lords but none the less
interesting, for it was here that the
great Gladstone used to speak and
when in power dominated the policy
of England. There. too, DisfAeli, that
suave, crafty statesman, forced Parlia-
ment to do his bidding many, times.

afternoon when there was a terrific
conflict around Round Top which
rolled on toward the Peach Orchard.
The artillery fire was appalling, but
this was only the prelude to more
desperate work. General Longstreet,
one of the greatest generals of the
Confederacy, was moving his men
down to strike the extreme Union left
blow and if possible crush it. The
men in grey came on until it was

fall into their hands, but the arrival
of Sykes Corps saved the day for the
Union forces at this particular point.
