sume the thread of a soldier's life in the trenches. Our enlistment was for the war, and the pay $1T per month, board and bedding free; services, anything your officers said had to be done, from shooting Yankees and getting shot, to starving to death, almost; in a word, to obey any and all orders. This was done with the best grace possible. The events of a gigantic struggle rolled on; shooting and getting shot was endured (when it didn't kill); our wages—at least mine were paid up to October, 1864, for I signed away my pay roll at Augusta, Ga., for clothing—were sometimes paid in Confederate notes, hut they had little value. Eloquently it has been said of them: Worthless as were these promises to pay, they cost more than any tender ever issued by a nation on earth. They were issued in integrity, defended in valor, and bathed in priceless blood. Our country was— Too poor to possess the precious ores, And too much of a stranger to borrow, We issued to-day our promise to pay, And<

ust, 1862, and ordered as first lieutenant of the gunboat Chattahoochee, on the Chattahoochee River. Later he was ordered abroad to join a Confederate vessel. While awaiting her, he was selected to take dispatches from the Confederate commissioners in England and France, and Captain Bulloch, in charge of equipping cruisers, to the Richmond government. These dispatches were taken through the blockade and delivered, and he was sent back to the commissioners with return dispatches. In October, 1864, he was ordered as executive officer of the C. S. S. Shenandoah, and after her unique cruise surrendered to the British Government in Liverpool, Eng., in November, 1865. In December, 1865, he went to Buenos Ayres, and remained in the Argentine Confederation until 1867, when he returned to his home in Virginia. In 1868 he was appointed captain of one of the Bay Line steamers between Baltimore and Norfolk and Portsmouth. He served in that capacity until 1890, when he resigned to beco

es to find out, almost without fail, those among their relatives who seemed lost in the midst of these immense bodies of armed men, and thus relieved much suffering and put an end to a great deal of anxiety. The figures we have given demonstrate more eloquently than any comment that could be made what private charity can accomplish when properly directed. We shall only add one instance, by way of conclusion, in anticipation of the chronological order of this history. In the month of October, 1864, the society whose organization and achievements we have just related had already received $5,000,000 in cash, one-third of which was contributed by the Pacific States, although very remote from the seat of war. The other societies having the same object in view are only entitled to a brief notice, for the role they played was of secondary importance. We can only mention the Western Sanitary Commission, which, being entirely independent of the former, though equally national—that is

Disgraceful failures. The following dispatch from General Lee was received last night. It will be seen that Grant was badly beaten on Thursday--even worse south of Petersburg than on this side of the river. He was pushed into these fights by a desire to aid his master, Lincoln, in the coming election, but he has not helped matters much. He had better have trusted the electioneering to Sheridan's gasconading. We give General Lee's report: "Headquarters army Northern Virginia,"October , 1864. "Hon. James A. Seddon, Secretary of War: "General A. P. Hill reports that the attack of General Heth upon the enemy upon the Boydton plankroad, mentioned in my dispatch last evening, was made by three brigades, under General Mahone in front and General Hampton in the rear. Mahone captured four hundred prisoners, three stands of colors and six pieces of artillery. The latter could not be brought off, the enemy having possession of the bridge. "In the attack subsequen
