various sections of the State were here to-day to hear the addresses. A third of them were old cadets or of the families of men who got their training at the Institute. It was after 11 o'clock when Captain J. R. Anderson, Jr., called to order the audience which was packed into Jackson Hall. The New Market boys, seventy in number, occupied seats of honor in front of the rostrum. On their right were seated alumni of every class save New Market; to the left were thirty members of Garland-Rodes Camp of Confederate Veterans, Lynchburg, under Dr. C. B. Fleet, all in uniforms. When those old New Market boys came marching into the hall, with their old commander, General Scott Shipp, at their head, there was a demonstration of applause that threatened to take off the roof. Men and women arose to their feet, and cheering, stamping and waving of handerchiefs evidenced the enthusiasm of the assemblage.

Rev. Dr. J. William Jones writes The Times-Dispatch this interesting letter in connection with the death of General Gordon: 1. In publishing my sketch of General Gordon, your printers make me quote from General R. E. Lee, instead of General R. E. Rodes, as saying in his official report: Colonel Gordon handled his regiment in a manner that I have never seen nor heard equalled during the war. Gordon's regiment was in the brigade of the gallant and able General Rodes. 2. The death of General Rodes. 2. The death of General Longstreet and of General Gordon has caused some confused statements about the generals and lieutenant-generals of the Confederacy, and it may be well to give the full list in the order of their rank: The full generals were— 1. Samuel Cooper. 2. Albert Sydney Johnston. 3. Robert Edward Lee. 4. Joseph E. Johnston. 5. P. Gustave T. Beauregard. 6. Braxton Bragg. General Provisional Army, E. Kirby Smith. General with temporary rank, J. B. Hood. Lieutenant-Generals.

up and the spring campaign opened. In the latter part of April we were again upon the march, and came up with the enemy on the 1st of May at Chancellorsyille, but this time under a new commander, General Fighting Joe Hooker having succeeded Burnside. Ah! who of the Crenshaw Battery does not remember Chancellorsville? Who can forget the incessant fighting of the 1st, 2d, and 3d of May, when we struck the enemy first in front, and then in rear, in the race down the plank road behind Rodes' Division after the Flying Dutchmen, of Howard's Eleventh Corps, when Jackson made his celebrated flank movement. （Howard's Corps was composed of Germans.) They were easy marks. But on the 3d, when we had to cut a road through the woods to prevent annihilation before we could get in position, it was not so easy, and as far as the eye could reach when we debouched from the road there was nothing to be seen but lines of battle. The Crenshaw Battery went into position near the centre of the
