. My own battalion occupied a wood at Mt. Carmel church, five miles north of Hanover Junction, the horses being sheltered in an adjoining pine thicket. On the occasion of Burnside's Mud March, we marched about halfway to Fredericksburg, but were then allowed to return. The infantry generally did not leave their camps, as there was nowhere any fighting. Although so near to Richmond, the army was inadequately clothed, shod, and fed, in spite of Lee's earnest efforts. As far back as April 28, 1862, the meat ration had been reduced from 12 to 8 ounces, and a small extra allowance of flour (two ounces) was given. It was claimed that but for this reduction, the supply of meat would not have held out throughout the fall. On Jan. 23, 1863, a further reduction was ordered, by the commissary-general, to four ounces of salt meat with one-fifth of a pound of sugar. Lee wrote of the situation on March 27:— The men are cheerful, and I receive but few complaints, still I do not conside

Nichols, Edward Tatnall 1823-1886 Naval officer; born in Augusta, Ga., March 1, 1823; graduated at the United States Naval Academy, and was commissioned a commander in 1862. When the Civil War broke out he was given command of the Winona of the Western Gulf blockading squadron. On April 28, 1862, Fort St. Philip, after having been bombarded, surrendered to him. Later he was placed in command of the steamer Mendote, with which he attacked the battery at Four Mile Creek on the James River, Va. He was promoted rear-admiral in 1878; retired in 1885. He died in Pomfret, Conn., Oct. 12, 1886.

enemies, giving them aid and comfort. In consequence of the disturbances in western North Carolina (see Frankland) and symptoms of disaffection on the southwestern border, and in Kentucky, the Virginia legislature passed a law in October, 1785, subjecting to the penalties of treason all attempts to erect a new State in any part of her territory without permission first obtained of the Assembly. Pennsylvania had passed a similar law. When Admiral Farragut arrived before New Orleans (April 28, 1862), he sent Captain Bailey ashore with a flag to demand the surrender of the city. The military commander (Lovell) turned over the whole matter to the civil authorities. The demand was refused. Meanwhile a force had landed from one of the vessels and hoisted the National flag over the Mint. As soon as they retired a gambler, named William B. Mumford, with some young men, tore down the flag and dragged it through the streets in derision. This act was hailed with acclamations of approva
