Andrew, dated Jan. 17, he said, Pray keep Massachusetts sound and firm, firm, firm! against every word or step of concession. In another letter to the same, dated Jan. 28, he said, Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes: don't let these words be ever out of your mind when you think of any proposition from the slave-masters. O God! Let Massachusetts keep true. So again he wrote (Feb. 5), More than the loss of forts, arsenals, or the national capital, I fear the loss of our principles; and again (Feb. 10) he wrote to the same, I do not tremble for any thing from our opponents, whoever they may be, but from our friends. On assuming the duties of his office (March 4), Mr. Lincoln declared that he had no purpose to interfere with the institution of slavery where it existed, and that in his opinion he had no right to do so. The course of the secession leaders had, however, been elected; and the conciliatory inaugural of the president served but to call forth their denunciation and contemp

ace had to be kept secret, and the men sent to Massachusetts in small parties to avoid molestation or excitement. Mr. Corson was obliged to purchase railroad tickets himself, and get the recruits one at a time on the cars or under cover of darkness. The men sent and brought from Philadelphia went to form the major part of Company B. New Bedford was also chosen as a fertile field. James W. Grace, a young business man of that place, was selected as recruiting officer, and commissioned February 10. He opened headquarters on Williams Street, near the postoffice, and put out the United States flag across the street. Colored ministers of the city were informed of his plans; and Lieutenant Grace visited their churches to interest the people in his work. He arranged for William Lloyd Garrison, Wendell Phillips, Frederick Douglass, and other noted men to address meetings. Cornelius Howland, C. B. H. Fessenden, and James B. Congdon materially assisted and were good friends of the mov

to Pocotaligo. The line of the Salkehatchie being thus broken, the enemy retreated at once behind the Edisto at Branchville, and the whole army was pushed rapidly to the South Carolina railroad at Midway, Bamberg (or Lowry's station), and Graham's station. The Seventeenth corps, by threatening Branchville, forced the enemy to burn the railroad bridge, and Walker's bridge below, across the Edisto. All hands were at once set to work to destroy railroad track. From the seventh to the tenth of February this work was thoroughly prosecuted by the Seventeenth corps from the Edisto up to Bamberg, and by the Fifteenth corps from Bamberg up to Blackville. In the meantime General Kilpatrick had brought his cavalry rapidly by Barnwell to Blackville, and had turned toward Aiken, with orders to threaten Augusta, but not to be drawn needlessly into a serious battle. This he skilfully accomplished, skirmishing heavily with Wheeler's cavalry, first at Blackville and afterward at Williston and A

y bed is kept out of it by some fence rails, and my larder is a basket on the ground at the bed's head, containing a piece of pork and a bag of flour. There is not a negro in Virginia that would not despise such lodgings, but I am contented. I sleep soundly, work hard, eat heartily, and am fattening. A day or two later he writes: I have just finished a large stone chimney to my tent, and shall have it floored with poles to-morrow; then I shall be in great state. On Monday night, February 10, six days before his death, he thus closes a long letter from the camp before Fort Donelson: Oh, how all these adventures, with their perils and deliverances, their privations and blessings, do drive us to our God! I want no other strength than the Lord Jehovah; no other Redeemer than our blessed Saviour; no other Comforter than His Holy Spirit. I believe that when we do our duty the Lord will fight for us. I feel a constant, bright and cheery trust in Him. I think of my precious wife a
