Part they played in the war between the States. account of Lieutenant Iredell Jones.
Many of the boys served as privates in the ranks, with self-sacrificing devotion and patriotic zeal.
The following in reference to the South Carolina College Cadets in the Confederate war has been handed to the bureau by one familiar with the subject:
It is to be regretted that the very interesting historical account of the South Carolina College Cadets, written by Lieutenant Iredell Jones, and published in the News and Courier, December 19, 1901, could not have been made complete.
Upon the refusal of Governor Pickens to muster into service the company of South Carolina Cadets, of which Professor Charles S. Venable was captain, many of the students, when the college closed after the June examinations (1861), went to the front and joined themselves to other South Carolina companies then in service in Virginia.

Talks with General J. A. Early.
[from the Richmond, Va., Dispatch, September 22, 1902.]
Valley campaign and movement on Washington.
Some thrilling incidents.
An interesting paper by Dr. Wm. B. Conway, of Company C, 4th Regiment, Virginia Cavalry—Excitement in Federal capital. To the Editor of the Dispatch:
General Early's Shenandoah Valley campaigns of 1864 were most remarkable in many respects, and many unsatisfactory reports come to us through Confederate histories concerning these campaigns.
I have read a few of these magazine articles from Federal officers giving their side of the question, and at times at variance with many things that came under my own observation, as well as what I have heard from General Early's own lips.
During the latter years of his life the general spent most of his summers at the Yellow Sulphur Springs, in Montgomery county, Va., and he was frequently accompanied by General Beauregard, the hero of the first battle of Manassas.

Refused to burn it. [from the Richmond, Va., Dispatch, April 27, 1902.]
Colonel William E. Peters Disobeyed orders at Chambersburg, Pa. Brave but tender officer.
A Confederate declined to make war on helpless women and Children—Was arrested but subsequently released.
Colonel William E. Peters, on the 19th of June, will retire from the chair of Latin in the University of Virginia, after forty-six years of continuous service, leaving a record of which his friends and all former students, as well as the admirers of that great school, are very proud.
This official severance results from his resignation tendered three years ago. His successor, Professor Thomas Fitzhugh, will take up the work of the school of Latin with the beginning of the ensuing session.
The career of the retiring Professor is one of distinguished honor.
He was born in Bedford county, August 18, 1829, and was educated at Emory and Henry College and at the University of Virginia.
In 1852 he was elect

The First Manassas.

A man who was there tells about the great skedaddle.
discipline of our troops.
The lack of it was most Conspicuous—a writer who visited Beauregard's Camp when a boy recalls the great battle.
Was there ever a more humiliating scene enacted in this country of ours than that as shown by the demoralized and fleeing United States troops at the first battle of Manassas?
It has been some consolation to us old Confederates who have suffered so long and patiently since the close of the Civil war to know that the army of General McDowell, on the 21st day of July, 1861, composed of several thousand old regulars and 25,000 volunteers, were badly whipped by the Southern troops, who numbered not over 21,000, and of that number only about 16,000 were actually engaged.
They had every advantage of us in means, ammunition, provisions, transportation, etc. Our regiments were made up of all grades and conditions of

Cold Harbor salient.
[from the Richmond, Va., Dispatch, April 27, 1902.]
The story told from the other side.
Through the kindness of a friend I am in possession of copies of your paper of dates of February 16th [see Vol.
XXIX, Southern Historical Society Papers, page 285] and March 9th, in which correspondents very graphically describe what to us is the other side of that fierce struggle for the so-called bloody salient at Cold Harbor June 3, 1864.
Having been a participant in that short but sanguinary encounter, I must say I was highly interested in the perusal.
In encounters of that kind it is a source of satisfaction to know who were our opponents, or commonly speaking, we run up against.
In that little affair we had no time to ask questions, for our stay was short in that neighborhood.
Hence, I am glad even at this late day to learn who it was who put up so strong an objection to our occupying that salient, and it may be equally interesting to those survivors who
