tly. I append a roster of the company. James H. Allen. The roster. The James City Cavalry, Company H, Fifth Regiment, was mustered into service in the city of Williamsburg by Colonel Munford, May 22, 1861. There were so few members enrolled that a little cheating was done in order to get it accepted. It subsequently made such a reputation, that it was more difficult to keep out recruits than it was to gain them. It never lost a man by transfer, and only one by exchange. Major B. B. Douglas once remarked to me: Your company illustrates the fact that educated gentlemen always make good soldiers. This company was a close follower of Rosser, Fitz. Lee, Payne, Lomax, and Stuart, and was a sufferer with Early in his Valley campaign. Captains.—G. E. Geddy, dead; James H. Allen, wounded; L. W. Lane, wounded. Lieutenants.—M. A. Meanley, dead; Andrew Hockaday; George E. Bush, dead; C. W. Hubbard, killed; J. F. Hubbard; E. M. Ware, wounded and prisoner, dead; J. W. Morecock

King William Co., May 20, 1861. King William votes about 600. Four hundred names are on her muster-roll. Of the latter, one company is in the field, under the command of W. R. Aylett. Another company (Cavalry) under B. B. Douglas, will soon be ready; and still another, of artillery, is organizing. The "Silver Grays," 65 in number, under the command of a popular veteran, H. Littlepage, have offered as a Home Guard. Their heads present a shining mark, but they march as sprightly as boys. When I first saw them drill, I supposed the company made up of widowers. I would respectfully suggest that our supply of medicine and food throughout the country be used judiciously and economically, so as to insure plenty. Let us raise corn, wheat, potatoes, hay and forage crops to the extent of our ability, to be prepared for a long war. Our duty as patriots require us to be active, and to remember that a country is more injured by neglect than by actual destruction of property.

he ground that many engaged in this business could not possibly receive notice of its prohibition, and would be liable to confiscation and imprisonment for doing so as they could know a lawful act. Rejected Mr. Isbell moved to amend by authorizing the County Courts to adopt this law in counties only where the scarcity of grain required it, saying that in many counties grain was a drug in the market, and this law was tyrannical and unjust. Rejected. The debate on the same lasted several hours. The vote on the bill resulted — ayes 23, noes 8 Mr. Douglas moved that the title be amended, so as to read: "A bill to discourage the production of grain in Virginia, and to impose penalties for the payment to farmers of remunerative prices for their crops." The amendment received a respectable vote, but failed to pass. Mr. Isbell, by leave, introduced a bill to incorporate Marengo Lodge, No. 109, I. C. O. F., of Mecklenburg county, Virginia. Read the first time. Adjourned.
