he rest of the Baltimore Delegation in the legislature, which was in Frederick, in session. On May 7, 1861, she went to Chestnut Hill, Va., the residence of a friend, Mrs. Mason, and the next day her husband followed her with his company—the Frederick Volunteers—to Point of Rocks. There, in a few days, he was joined by a company from Baltimore, Capt. Edelin, and other companies were rapidly collected at Harper's Ferry. They were all mustered into the service of the Confederate States on May 21-22, 1861, the object being to form them as a nucleus for the Maryland Line, which was to be the representative of Maryland in the Southern Confederacy and to win for their State a place in the new government. But a crisis soon confronted the Marylanders. Of the 500 men at the Point of Rocks and Harper's Ferry, Company A, from Frederick only were armed, and that only with Hall's Carbines, the original antiquated and useless breechloader, long since discarded by the army of the United States

Nor would there be still lying scattered throughout the Northern States twenty-eight thousand Confederate dead, difficult to locate, many never to be found, most of which are unmarked, a portion inadequately so, lost to their kindred and friends—lost to history—a fruitful source of sectional bitterness for nearly forty years—not yet removed. As early as May 21, 1861, the Confederate Congress passed an Act as follows: All prisoners of war whether taken on land or sea, during the pending hostilities with the United States, shall be transferred by the captors from time to time, and as often as convenient, to the Department of war; and it shall be the duty of the Secretary of War, with the approval of the President, to issue such instructions to the Quartermaster-General and his subordinates as shall provide for the safe custody and sustenance of prisone<

ally, if not de facto, of the power which they sought to establish. This law, then, directed the seizure and sale of all property, under whatever form, belonging to citizens of the hostile nation, or even to strangers simply residing on its territory. It would be difficult to imagine a more general confiscation. The law was aggravated by the means resorted to for the purpose of enforcing its execution. All transfer of property from an enemy to a citizen of the Confederacy after the 21st of May, 1861, was declared null, and the object of transfer confiscated. In order to find out everywhere what personal and real estate was subject to confiscation, an extraordinary mode of proceeding was devised, which, despite the danger there was in disputing any orders emanating from Richmond, gave rise to strong opposition, and which, even in the courts of Charleston, was justly designated as a new inquisition. In fact, all the lawyers, the attorneys, the bank-directors, all the agents of corp

The fight at Sewell's Point.six of the enemy killed.condition of the Monticello.small-pox at Fortress Monroc.[special Correspondence of the Dispatch.] Norfolk, May 21, 1861. As I promised in my letter of yesterday to give you information to-day, in case I should be able to ascertain the fact whether any of the enemy were killed or wounded by our fire from the battery at Sewell's Point, on Sunday last. I report, upon the authority of a gentleman who went down to Fort Monroe yesterday (Monday) in the steamer which carried (under a flag of truce) the families of those who desired to go North, that on board of the Monticello there were six men killed during the action on Sunday, by shot thrown from out battery. It was reported that several others had been wounded, but as to the truth of this he could not learn. The dead bodies of the six killed (or a part of them,) however, he saw ready for interment. The Monticello is so much injured that she will not be fit for service

Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.Reminiscences — Willisburg true to her Ancient Renown. Williamsburg, Va., May 21, 1861. During the early stages of the eight years, Revolution, old Williamsburg was the stage of many grand and magnificent scenes. The mouldering ashes of the old Capitol, within whose hallowed walls did the great and patristic of Virginia's sons deliberate in the darkest period of our nation's history, yet slumber in our midst, and the shades of the departed great, who labored in its walls for liberty, seem to walk among us. Upon its ashes the flag of the Southern Confederacy now waves, bearing its lovely folds to Heaven, to "mingle with the stars. " Old William and Mary, which before sent her sons to the battle field, is not found lacking. Her noble sons are all in the ranks, fighting for the cause of Independence. We gained liberty for a while by the strength of our arms, but that has been basely wrested from us by those whom we vainly thought t

Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.Affairs in Fredericksburg. Frederickeburo, May 21, 1861. The town is now comparatively quiet, and presents no unusual appearance. Business is going on as smoothly as if no war had been heard of, and, by the way, business of all kinds seems to be recovering from the blow received a short time since. Transactions in provisions are constantly going on, and the probabilities of starving us out becomes hourly less apparent. The soldiers, as far as I can learn, are entirely satisfied, and give assurance that "camp life" has not dampened the ardor of their devotion to Southern interests. Indeed, all are anxious for a fight, and, my word for it, they will teach our libertyshriekers a lesson that will be remembered for ages. Companies are offering their services at headquarters almost every day, and will no doubt be received and mustered into service as soon as the judgment of the officers may decide. Col. Cary is very popular with all t
