There is no need to recount the exploits of those scouts and rangers who maintained an independent state within the lines, and almost within sight of the capitol of the enemy. Time would fail me even to sketch the glorious achievements of those other heroes who went forth with your Scott, the Carters, and your Randolph. On first Mannassas maiden field; through the hardship and the sickness and the one sharp conflict of the Peninsula campaign; in the splendors of the Valley victories; on the bloody field of Seven Pines; at Cold Harbor and amid the deafening thunders of Malvern's rugged sides, belching forth flame and death; at second Manassas, scene of stern endurance; at Harper's Ferry's victory; on Sharpsburg's trying field; on Fredericksburg's hill-fringed plain and hill-side drenched in gore; in Chanc
