Reynolds, who commanded a brigade of Tennessean during the Vicksburg campaign, and was taken prisoner there. The Rebel, in an obituary of Captain Thomas E. King, a volunteer aid, says: At the first battle of Manassas, in which he commanded a company in the 8th Georgia (Dartow's) regiment, he received a desperate wound, and has been upon crutches up to a very recent period. He could not endn. Smith was still driving the enemy, himself and staff riding some distance in advance of the brigade and close upon the heels of the retreating enemy. A sudden volley cut down Gen. Smith and three of the officers who were with him, including Capt. King, who lived about an hour and a half after receiving the fatal wound. Brig.-Gen.

He reached the field on Saturday, and was invited to take position on the staff of Lieut-Gen. Polk, but accepted a position on the staff of Gen. Preston Smith, as it would enable him to render more immediate service. During the desperate and continuous fighting all day on Saturday, he escaped unhurt, up to 5 P. M., when the firing ceased, and it was generally believed that the strife was ended for that day. He had just taken out his note book, and had written under date of Saturday, 5 P. M.: I thank my God that I have been spared through this day; when an order came from Gen. Polk to make another advance upon the enemy to drive them from a strong position on a creek in front of our lines. Gen. Smith advanced with his brigade, and by a splendid charge drove the enemy some distance. Gen. Smith was still driving the enemy,

Local service. --Judge Halyburton, of the C. S. Circuit Court, has had his hands full for a week past, in hearing applications of soldiers to be discharged from service. The cause of the most of these applications is as follows: In the spring of 1862 Gen. Winder, then in command of the military department of Richmond, authorized the raising of a mounted company to do local service in and around Richmond. Capt. John F. Wren, at the instance of friends, undertook the raising of this corps, and soon succeeded in doing so. When the command was mustered into service it was understood that the limits were 10 miles and no more. Finding Capt. Wren's company too large it was divided, and the Captain appointed a Major of the battalion. Thus organized, the battalion performed picket duty around Richmond, volunteering to go beyond the limits on several occasions to prevent Yankee raids. Some few months since this battalion was attached to Col. Robbins's command, and as that command has

Some few months since this battalion was attached to Col.

In the course of a few days these cases will be brought before the Judge, and argued upon their merits. If he decides that those members of Maj. Wren's old command, who
