was three fold, to prevent another raid into Maryland, to keep so close to Early's army that none of it could be dispatched to Lee, and to keep from a general engagement. These three facts are needed to explain the complicated and erratic movements of the period from the 7th of August to the 19th of September. The itinerary of the brigade is given in a report made by the Adjutant General of the brigade as follows: August 10: Marched at 6 A. M., camped at Clifton, fifteen miles. August 11: Marched at 5 A. M. and camped six miles from Winchester, southeast. August 12: Marched at 7:30 A. M. in rear of trains, camped at Middletown. August 13: Crossed Cedar Creek at 7 A. M., halted eleven and one-half miles from Strasburg. Enemy found in position at Fisher's Hill. Recrossed Cedar Creek at 10 A. M. and camped on old ground. August 16: Commenced march to Winchester at 10 P. M. August 17: Continued march, passed through Winchester at 8 A. M. Camped on Opequon Creek at

ledge that in his rear, a distance of less than three miles, there was a whole division of troops resting leisurely by the road-side that he could have for the asking; and if that was not enough, a corps that had probably found the road to Culpeper could be added. When Banks with this knowledge plunged into that abyss of horrors without calling for these reinforcements, he committed a blunder that even a politician might shudder at,--a crime that he cannot transfer to Pope. On the eleventh of August we returned to the same spot, near Culpeper, from whence on the 9th we went out to fight the battle of Cedar Mountain. After a few days (on the 14th), my brigade, with reduced numbers, moved out of Culpeper, hurrying to confront the march of Lee's victorious army. .From the Peninsula and from North Carolina new divisions and corps were marching to our aid. The music of the band of the Second echoed as gayly through the streets, as we turned our backs on the town, as if no lives had be

It held its eighty-first annual meeting in November, 1895, having been founded in 1814, apparently by Dr. Abiel Holmes, whose name leads the list of subscribers in the book of records which has served all the secretaries from that day to the present. In the middle of the heated term, as the degenerate sons of the present time speak of the season, the fathers began their beneficent labors with an address to their fellow-townsmen, dated August 11. This address was the consummation of efforts begun in February, when a meeting had been held at Porter's Tavern. Caleb Gannett, Esq., being chosen chairman, it was voted that the subscribers do form a society to be known hereafter as The Cambridge Humane Society. The next meeting was held at the same hospitable place, July 18, Dr. Abiel Holmes being chairman, and a committee, composed of Samuel Bartlett, Esq., & Doct.

hird, or fifth, or sixth, or seventh. But it is seldom pretended, even by the most credulous, that special judgments, speaking the divine disapprobation, are visited upon the heads of those who commit adultery, or kill, or covet, or will not honor their father and mother. No—a monopoly of punishment is given to the Sabbath, to ensure its strict outward observance! From friends and foes of the Liberator protestations Lib. 6.135. were quickly heard against this heterodox doctrine. On August 11, Mr. Garrison writes from Brooklyn to Henry Benson: My review of Dr. Beechers speech seems to Ms. make some fluttering in certain quarters, especially my remarks upon the sanctity of the Sabbath; on the 18th Ms. he reports to the same that further censure had been visited upon him, as he had anticipated; and on the 21st, that there was still no end of it: The only thing that I regret is, the insertion of a Ms. communication by Knapp, (written by friend Oakes William Oakes, of

Society, against those who charged them with quitting their sphere. It was now, however, to become a burning and dividing question for the abolitionists themselves as well as for the country at large. The Pastoral Letter, as it may still be read in the Refuge of Oppression of the Liberator of August 11, Lib. 7.129. 1837, asserts, without naming either slavery or Carolina's high-souled daughters, that the perplexed and agitating subjects which are now common amongst us . . . should not be forced upon any church as matters for debate, at the hazard of alienation and division. There is, it continues, a perceptible loss of deference to the pastoral office; a zeal to violate the principles and rules of Christian intercourse, to interfere with the proper pastoral influence, and to make the c

Mr. Garrison, to whom these things give hope and t, and, during the slight interruptions which ensued, besought the chairman, Horace Mann, to do Lib. 4.127. his duty by the disturbers; though for his own part he regarded the Rev. John Breckinridge's speech as ferocious and diabolical. On August 11 he wrote to G. W. Benson: You will have seen by the Liberator, that a grand attack by Ms. all the combined forces of colonization and slavery has lately been made upon Boston, in relation to the Maryland scheme of expatriation.

Nevertheless, assemble it did on August 11, borrowing the appellation of Free Democracy Lib. 22.134. from the Cleveland Convention of May 2, 1849, Lib. 19.85. and drawing to itself both Free Soil and the remnant of independent Liberty Party elements.

opening an office in the city. If, before the day of service upon your post, you have an offer from some established man with large business and a good library, then deliberate, then suffer yourself to institute comparisons between that and the station in the Law School; but not till then. If such a chance should occur, the judge would be one of the foremost to relinquish his hold on you. A few weeks before Sumner's admission to the bar, the Ursuline Convent at Charlestown was burned, Aug. 11, by a mob. The authorities of Harvard College seriously apprehended a retaliatory attack by the Catholics upon the college buildings, and particularly upon the library, then kept in Harvard Hall. The students were absent upon their vacation; and Rev. Mr. Palfrey, Dean of the Divinity Faculty, undertook to collect a volunteer guard among the recent graduates. One of seventy men was gathered for one night, commanded by Franklin Dexter; and another of like number for the next night, commande
