from its base of supplies at Abingdon, Va., with the Cumberland Mountains between. The farms were generally small and poor, lying along the mountain-sides or in narrow valleys. During January, 1862, corn was worth ten dollars per barrel, and had to be hauled thirty miles over desperate roads. For weeks they subsisted upon mountain beef and parched corn. These privations General Marshall shared, giving up his tent to the sick and wounded, and sleeping beneath a wagon. On the 17th of December, 1861, General Don Carlos Buell, then in command of the Department of the Ohio, including Kentucky, assigned Colonel (afterward General and President) James A. Garfield, of Ohio, to command his Eighteenth Brigade, and sent him against General Marshall. Colonel Garfield concentrated his forces at Louisa, Brigadier-General James A. Garfield.

so, at Rocky Face Ridge; Cassville, Dallas; Peach Tree Creek; Paid Springs; Lovejoy's Station. notes.--A German regiment, organized through the exertions of Colonel Willich, an officer who had seen service in the German army, and who, also, achieved a brilliant success in the War of the Rebellion. The regiment left Indiana in September, proceeding to Kentucky where it served for several months. While on duty at Rowlett's Station, Ky., guarding a railroad bridge, it was attacked on December 17, 1861, by a superior force under General Hindman, but succeeded in repulsing the attack. The gallantry of the regiment in this affair elicited a special order from General Buell, acknowledging the service performed. The loss of the Thirty-second in that fight was 11 killed, 22 wounded, and 5 missing, out of 418 engaged. In February, 1862, it moved to Bowling Green, Ky., and thence to Nashville, where it remained a short time, after which it marched to Shiloh, then in Rousseau's Division.

To Charleston!--that is our destination; or, more accurately, to the bar at the entrance of the harbor of that doomed city. The terrible stone fleet, on a mission as pitiless as the granite that freights it, sailed this morning from the harbor of Port Royal, and before two days are past will have made Charleston an inland city. This western bride of the sea is to be a widow; the decree of divorce is entered in a court without appeals; and the fleet which executes it, storm-tossed, shattered, and unworthy of the sea, is a fit counterpart to the gorgeous galleys with whose stately procession the Doge yearly wedded Venice to the Adriatic. Against these crumbling hulks the batteries which silenced Sumter point their guns in vain. They have taken counsel of the Romans, who declared tha
