n. His horse went down in the melee; but little Wood, the bugler of Company G, sprang down, and gave in getting away his arms before help came. As Wood still went after a horse another fellow rode atle fight. When I got up to the battery I found Wood there. He sang out to me to wait, and he wouldmen, who had just taken one, was going past, so Wood stopped him and got it for me. Just at that can touch it with your hand. The divisions of Wood and Sheridan are wading breast deep in the vall, and converged their fire down upon Baird, and Wood, and Sheridan. It was rifles and musketry; it had already set forth without it. Stout-hearted Wood, the iron-gray veteran, is rallying on his men;comes again, and the Vs move on. At the left of Wood, three regiments of Baird-Turchin, the Russian nest as the blood that reddened all the route. Wood uttered words that rang like Napoleon's, and Sh, and he honors the roll. A little German in Wood's Division is pierced like the lid of a pepper-

No time for preparation was allowed --they were bid to say farewell to their comrades, and be quick about it --then were tied, carried out, and hung. One of their number, too ill to walk, was pinioned like the rest, and dragged off in this condition to the scaffold; while two, whose weight broke the ropes which suspended them, were denied another hour's respite for prayer. One of their number, Alfred Wilson, of the Twenty-first Ohio, did not hesitate, while standing under the gallows, to make a brief, manly, and patriotic address to the scowling mob who surrounded him. The remaining prisoners, now reduced to fourteen, were kept closely confined under special guard, in the Atlanta jail, until October, when, overhearing a conversation among their guards, they became convinced that they were to be hung, as their companions had been.

the way, vouched for them, and they passed( the pickets into the town readily enough. Once in, they made the circuit of the town and camps, obtaining all the information they could, and then began to think of getting back. It was arranged that Moore should go to Chattanooga for further observation, while Blue would return to Nashville and report what they had already seen and heard. With this understanding, both went at once to the provost-marshal's office for passes. At that time Captain Williams was provost-marshal, whom they found somewhat crabbed and chary of words. Making known their wants, they were saluted in this manner:-- Want a pass to Chattanooga, do you? Lots of people in that fix. What d'ye want to go there for? We want to join Jack Jones's cavalry company, replied Moore, at a venture, who had heard of such a company. If that's all you want, you needn't go to Chattanooga for it. Jones and his company are here now. This was a new and not pleasing phase

He assumed a grim smile, and directed Lieutenant Whiting to search me. My gold hunting watch and chain, several rings,ichmond and the Libby. A guard of fifteen men, in command of Lieutenant Whiting, was detailed as our escort; and accompanied by Mosby himselfs now reduced, as we are far within the Confederate lines, to Lieutenant Whiting and three men, well mounted and doubly armed, and our party oubt would do his duty well. I rode up again to the side of Lieutenant Whiting, and like an echo from the past came back to me my words of yarty of prisoners was in the centre, and I was by the side of Lieutenant Whiting, who acted as rear-guard, when we entered a small copse of wi among other things, my gold hunting watch from the person of Lieutenant Whiting, and over eleven hundred dollars in greenbacks, the proceeds
at work, so long as they could be brought to bear upon the retiring foe, till the Sassacus was carried, by her disabled engine, slowly, gracefully, and defiantly out of range. Of course, in this hand-to-hand fight between the Sassacus and Albemarle, little aid could be rendered, at close quarters, by the former's consorts, as such aid would have merely endangered her safety. Yet, the Wyalusing, the Mattabesett and the Miami did effective service, as opportunity offered, and the little Whitehead, during the fiercest of the fight, steamed alongside of the iron monster, and delivered shot after shot from her one hundred pounder Parrott gun. The Commodore hull and Ceres were also gallantly handled, and rendered all the assistance in their power. But the main brunt of this novel and unequal engagement fell upon the Sassacus, an inland light draught river steamer. The result, so contrary to all preconceived ideas of iron-clad invincibility, was eminently gratifying. The rebel gunb
