We have already briefly recited the formation and departure of our nine months troops: we now proceed to briefly sketch narratives of their services from the time they left the State until their return; beginning with the Third Regiment, which was in the Department of North Carolina. On Dec. 11, 1862, the regiment started from Newbern with the expedition to Goldsborough, which occupied eleven days; and the troops marched more than one hundred and fifty miles. It participated in the battles of Kinston, Whitehall, and Goldsborough. The regiment was complimented at the last-named battle by its brigade commander for its bravery in tearing up the railroad track while under fire, and its steadiness in supporting Belger's and Morrison's Batteries while repelling the brilliant charge of the

nd humility. From Newtown, March 23, 1862. Tell Ma that I thought of her and her teachings; and that if she does hear of my fall, she must not think of me as one who died without hope. April 10, 1862. In the thickest of the fight I know that God can hear the silent prayer of the greatest sinner, and, through the blood of Him who saved the dying thief upon the Cross, can in like manner translate the soul of the warrior from the battle-field to a sinless, happy home in heaven. December 11, 1862. We are on the verge of a great battle or a retreat. . . . I trust that, if I fall, the great Father of Spirits will take me to Himself, sinner though I am, through the merits of a Saviour whose love I have so often slighted. March 14, 1863. You must pray for me, as I know you do. I feel, somehow, a need which cannot be supplied in this world. . . . Yes, it may be the first whisperings of that mysterious voice whose power can yet turn my heart from its stubborn sinfulness, and to th

There was a delay of two days, however, and in the small hours of Sunday morning, May 3, the men marched to the Lacy House, halting very near the same spot as on the morning of the memorable 11th of December, 1862. Lieut. Col. Devereux called for 20 volunteers who, after being joined by a like number from the 20th Massachusetts regiment, were to cross the river in boats. The required number at once stepped forward and Lieut. Ferris volunteered iddle of the river, the boats were headed down stream and just as the sun cast his first rays over the waters, the men landed on the Fredericksburg shore, at the same place where the Nineteenth Massachusetts and the Seventh Michigan landed on Dec. 11, 1862, without firing a shot or hearing a bullet whistle. Here they rested until the bridge was laid and the regiment crossed. Lieut. Col. Devereux considered the act of volunteering as commendable as though the work had been done as intended and

The first conspicuous service rendered by Massachusetts troops in the attack on Fredericksburg was in crossing the river in boats in face of a severe fire on Dec. 11, 1862. Bridges were being laid across the river, a work so impeded by Confederate sharpshooters that in the afternoon volunteers were called for by Col. N. J. Hall to cross in boats and dislodge the enemy. Three regiments of Colonel Hall's brigade volunteered, the 7th Michigan and the 19th and 20th Mass. In the words of Maj.-Gen. O. O. Howard, commanding the division, The 7th Michigan passed over not far from 3 P. M. The 19th Mass. followed immediately at about 3.30 P. M., it having been nec
