th dealing missiles, and though my father's house was a special aim of the cannon, it marvelously escaped being struck, but every building in the vicinity suffered for its supposed crime. Ex-Governor Letcher had been warned by an ante-bellum friend, a member of Hunter's brigade, to make his escape. A large reward had been offered for his capture, and dreadful threats had been made against him in consequence of his late position as chief officer of the Commonwealth. On the morning of June 12, 1864, before the family had arisen, a posse of soldiers, with one commissioned officer, rang the door-bell, and, with no other warning of any kind, delivered a verbal order from General Hunter, in General Grant's name, for the destruction of the place and without the removal of a single article, not even a change of clothing for its inmates. The order was to be executed in ten minutes. Even that small respite was not allowed, as the work of firing began at once, before the inmates could dres

on account of his scholarly style of composition, had been dubbed by his fellow-cadets Lord Shaftsbury. In this battle Sergeant G. M. Hodges' horse was killed under him, and he was shot in the side. Though wounded, he succeeded in capturing another horse, and continued in the battle until disabled by a wound in the shoulder. After the battle investigation showed that the enemies' bullet had entered the same hole in his coat that was made by the bullet which wounded him at Trevillian, 12th June, 1864. In this battle Captain Humphreys was wounded in the arm by a grape shot in charging a battery. He was carried to the hospital in Raleigh, N. C. The surgeon informed him that his arm must be amputated. He refused to submit to the operation from a morbid horror of going through life maimed, and died a short time before Lee's surrender. Cadet Humphreys was gifted with a fine intellect and a very natural quality to make for himself a successful career. Fate willed otherwise than that

My ride around Baltimore in Eighteen hundred and Sixty-four. [from the Journal of the U. S. Cavalry Association, Fort Leavenworth, Texas, September, 1889.] After the battle of Trevillian's, June 12, 1864, at which Hampton drove Sheridan back from his attempted raid on Lynchburg to cooperate with Hunter, who was moving down the Valley with the same objective, General Hampton gave me permission to undertake an enterprise, which I had often discussed with him during the preceding sixty days. My command, the Maryland Line, had been distributed to the infantry and cavalry, by the movement of Lee's army to the lines around Richmond, and I had retained command of the First Maryland Cavalry, about two hundred and fifty effective men, and the Baltimore Light Artillery (Second Maryland Artillery), with five inefficient guns. The gallant Lieutenant-Colonel Ridgeley Brown, commanding the cavalry, had been killed at the fight at the South Anna bridge on the first of June, and Capt

I noticed your inquiry, To what company and regiment Ashby, who was killed at Appomattox, belonged? Buckner Ashby, a wealthy farmer, resided near Stone Bridge, Clark county, Va., before and at the commencement of the war between the States, and had three grown sons, James Lewis, John William, and Buckner G. Ashby. At the commencement of hostilities James Lewis Ashby enlisted in Company D, Clarke Cavalry, Sixth Virginia Regiment, and was killed in action at the battle of Trevillian's, June 12, 1864, Hampton commanding Confederates and Sheridan the Federals. He was a gallant soldier, a most estimable gentleman, and a true patriot. John William Ashby enlisted in Company I, Twelfth Virginia Cavalry, in April, 1862, and served his country well up to the time of his death, at Appomattox, April 9, 1865. He had participated in many hard fought engagements before the final campaign from Five Forks to Appomattox. Directly after the Beverley raid in January, 1865, our regiment the

ured a few prisoners this morning. They were principally from the 17th and 18th corps. Grant is not so, near Richmond as when he was south of the Chickahominy, but he has certainly now made across that river. The enemy, when they abandoned their breastworks this morning, left them guard of by a line of skirmishers, some one hundred and fifty of whom fell into our hands, among them a mad carrier attached to the 6th corps.

were found, in that of the left side, his Book of Common Prayer for the service of the Protestant Episcopal Church, and in the right pocket, four copies of the Rev. Dr. Quintard's little work entitled. "Balm for the Weary and the Wounded." Upon the fly leaves of each of these little volumes, indicating for whom they were intended, was inscribed the names respectively of Gen. Jos. E. Johnston, Lieut. Gen. Hardee, and Lieut. Gen. Hood, "with the compliments of Lieut. Gen. Leoni Jas. Polk, June 12th, 1864." Within the fourth volume was inscribed his own name. All were saturated with the blood which flowed from the wound. The remains, in charge of his staff, reached this city last night, and were received by a committee of citizens appointed by the Mayor, and deposited in St. Luke's Church, on Walton street. The remains were lying in state in the church, and were visited during the morning by thousands of citizens. At 12 o'clock the beautiful burial service of the Protestant Ep

The Defeat of Sturges. --The Chicago Pot publishes the following private letter from an officer who accompanied Sturgis into Mississippi: Memphis, June 12, 1864.--I returned to Memphis last night, and I assure you that I was glad to get back again. We have had a terrible time — have been cut all to pieces Out of five regiments of infantry and one battery, but about three hundred and eighty have been saved, all the rest being killed, wounded, or taken prisoners Col Humphreys, of the 95th Illinois, and Col McKeag, of the 120th Illinois, were killed. I saw Col Humphreys, when he was shot, and afterwards saw his body at Ripley. Col McKeag was shot during our retreat. It is impossible to tell who are killed and wounded now, and will be for some time to come. The 113th regiment left here with about three hundred men, the balance being on duty at this place as a guard to living block — only eighty-eight have returned. The only officer that I know of in that regiment who was k
