It proceeded soon after to Kentucky, encamping at Calhoun, on the Green River, where it remained until February 11, 1862, when it moved with General Grant's forces to Fort Donelson. It participated in the assault on that stronghold, losing 9 killed, 52 wounded, and 1 missing; the regiment was commanded in this action by Major Frederick Am, Colonel Cruft being in command of the brigade, which was then in Lew Wallace's Division. At Shiloh, the regiment was in Lauman's Brigade of Hurlbut's Division; loss, 21 killed--including Major Arn,--114 wounded, and 3 missing.

Second Lieutenant John B. Lady, led with great gallantry, and the men followed with the determined courage of veterans in a successful charge of their regiment and others on one of the enemy's batteries, after sustaining for hours a storm of shot and shell in supporting one of our batteries. The loss of the company was two killed, Sergeant George P. Wilson and John Fry, (son of Judge J. L. Fry,) two it is feared mortally wounded, William Quarrier and John Sweeny, sen., and seven others wounded, but not dangerously. Among the latter is Lieutenant Lady, who, with private Frederick, also wounded, is now in the city, well cared for in a benevolent family. They have each a painful flesh wound in the shoulder. The wounds of others are slight. Messrs. Fry and Quarrier were young lawyers of fine promise. Capt. Shriver, a young gentleman of fortune, has displayed as much gallantry in leading his men as lie had displayed liberality and energy in raising the company.--Richmond Enquirer.

Ripley, etc., etc.: General,—Colonel Frederick states that he receives so many contradictory reports as to the effect of the fire from the batteries under his direction, that he is unable to give proper instructions for the correction of inaccurate aim and ineffective fire. This may b General, by making it the duty of some officer at Fort Sumter to observe all shots fired at the enemy on Morris Island from Batteries Simkins and Cheves (when ready), and from Fort Johnson, and to communicate the effect by signal direct to Colonel Frederick, at Fort Johnson. The mortar fuses used at Battery Simkins appear to be too short. If not already corrected, please have them remedied as soon as possible. It is regarded as essential that there should be constantly on Morris Island

ury, has been settled in this castle since 1620. The Countess is of the Bruhl family, descended from the great minister. She is obviously a sensible, affectionate, excellent woman. They have five children,—three sons and two daughters. The eldest-Count Francis-lives at home and takes care of the estate; a truly agreeable, natural, frank young man of about sevenand-twenty, with a good deal of talent, much accomplished in the arts, and otherwise thoroughly educated. The second son [Count Frederick] is in Vienna; and the third [Count Leo], about twenty-four years old, has a place in the government at Prague, lives there chiefly, and manages another great estate of the family in that neighborhood. Both of them, as I was told in Dresden, are rather uncommon persons; the first remarkable for his knowledge of natural history, and the youngest for his diligence in his profession,—which is the law, —and for the wide, philanthropic views which he has expressed in a sensible work on pris<

l besides the Twenty-fifth. The performance was very creditable to all of the troops in the line. April 24th to July 8th.—Under the call of the Executive Council of the State for ten regiments with field officers appointed by the Governor and Council, Lamar's regiment of artillery and the Twenty-fifth South Carolina volunteers had been raised and organized. The conscription laws of the Confederacy caused all further proceedings under the call to be suspended. Lamar had died, and Colonel Frederick had succeeded him in command of the artillery regiment. Some demagogue in the Legislature of the State, with his eye on that regiment, introduced and got a bill through which provided for an election of field officers in the regiments organized under the call of the Executive Council. No particular regiment was mentioned in the bill, and it applied as much to the Twenty-fifth regiment as to the artillery. It would be very remarkable if in a whole regiment there were no aspirants for
