The last battle was thc ooo fought at West Point, Georgia, on Sunday, April 16, 1805, just one week after Lee's surrender. But the telegraph linen were all down, and the brave boys in gray from South Caroline, Georgia and Louisiana, who formed the garrison of Fort Tyler, situated on a bluff overlooking the purling waters of the Chattahooohee, knew not that the star of the Confederacy had gone down to rioo no more. Noither had the federal troops, operating in the vicinity, received aught of knowledge concerning the surrender. Fort Tyler was at this period com manded by Maj. Gen. Robt. C. Tyler, an intrepid Tennessoean, from whom the fort reocived its natne.% General Tyler had been wounded at the hattie of Chiokamauga, and was on crutches at tho time of the federal attack upon the fort. A large portion of the gar rison o? Fort Tyler on this April day of 1865 consisted of tho West Point militia, elderly men and boya, but each proved ere that day was done that the heart of a hero beat in his breast, dospite the pbysioal weakness of old ago and tho natural timidity of youth. The only really trained soldiers were those of White's battery, from Colombia, S. C., and 12 men be longing to Point Doupee battery of Louisiana or of Mississippi-the reoords are not very elear on this point. Only 120 men were in the garrison r and there were only 85 mus kets of all sorts, sizes end conditions. The fort contaiued one siege gun, a 32-poundor, and two that were 12 ponndors. This was the condition of affairs, when near to noon of April 16, 1865, 3,750 of as fine oavalry men as the federal service eould produce esme steadily on the march down the rail way irom the direotion of Opelika, and after a series of manoeuvers pre cipitated themselves in fierce attaok upon the fort. It was a beautiful spring Sabbath day, the skies blao, the sunshine golden, the birds singing, and the bells pealing out their chimes, sum moning the worshippers to church. But soon above the birds' songs and .the sweet notes of the bells came the boom cf c?scs and tbs hearse shouts of men ia the shook of conflict. The federal troops were lu command of Gol. La,. Grange. Almost at the beginning of the battle a well direoted shot from the fort brought down his boree. Fer some mome?te thereafter there was considerable confusion in the f?d?rai ranks, but soon the ?ttaok waa ranAwed with even greater via* or. . For nearly seven hours the unequal conflict was waged, the battle of 3,750 federal oavalry men splendidly mount ed and equipped* with every modern appliance of warfare against the 120 Confederates, more than one-half of them old men and boys, and with not enough weapons to supply one for eaoh man. Not until the PU. munition of. the fort gave out did the fort sur render. The federal commander, who proved himself both a broad-minded and a generous foe, afterwards de clared that in all the annals of the war there had not como to ?his knowl edge anything so oonspiouous in brav ery as this unequal contest. He, fer along time refused to believe that Only 120 men had been within the fort. Early in the engagement General Tyler wat hilled. He was pioked off .by a sharpshooter while exposing him* self ia the attempt to use his field glass. The co ra m sad then devolved upon Capt. Gonzales, a, brave Flori dian, whose example of valor ' wat.:'. |uv inspiration to his troops until he also fell tt?H&i?? wounded.

Col. James H. Fannin, who had arrived to take com mand when Capt, Gonzales fell mor tally wounded, noticed young Webb Btanding by his gun, a 12-pounder, and striking the end of tho ram rod with an axe. Col. Fannin asked him what he was doing. Ko replied that the bail had stuck, and that he was seeking to drive it home. In anothor movement he swung out from behind the gun in his effort to drive the axe against the ram rod with such force as to dislodge the ball, and in thai moment a shot from the enemy brought him down fatally wounded. Lieut. Waddell, of whose daring old West Pointers love to speak, seeing Webb fall, and noting the condition of the gun, at onoe sprang to the exposed platform, and, with the assistance of two other brave fellows, rolled the gun to a less exposed position. He then prooeded to have the fiction primer out and to put wet clothes on the gun to ooo! it, so it oould be returned to action. Lieut. Self, also of Whites' battery, was another South Carolina hero of the battle of Fort Tyler. During the hot test part of the enemies' fire, be stood up to get better aim. He was at once ordered to lie down. He did so, but not until a ball had grated him. At that moment a boy came with a oap full of minie balls. Self seised and threw a part of them into the gun. Then, with a wad of paper, be began ramming the gun. As he did so his hand was exposed above the barrel of the gnn. A ball pierced it. Only for an inssant did he flinch. Then, with the hand dripping blood, he continued ramming the charge home, aimed the gan and fired. Military experts, who haye sicco made a study of existing conditions and have carefally gathered the facts oonoer :g the wattle of Fort Tyler, deolare it ooo of the most heroio de fenses in the annals of the world? How proud Sooth Carolinians ought to be that 'the boys of the old Pal metto Stace had therein saoh noble pert.

AU true Southerners are interested in the fact that the federal govern ment has at last made a national ap propriation for the preservation and marking of graveB of Confederate soldiers. An order has recently been issued from the headquarters of tho United Confederate Veterans at New j Orleans, expressing the appreciation by Dr. 8amuel E. Lewis and others. Some of thc distinguished Southerners mentioned are known personally by Augusta Veterans, and for that rea son tho order has especial local inter est. It follows: General Orders No. 63. ?he general oommanding has the greatest possible pleasure in promul gating the following resolution adopted at the present reunion held in the city of New Orleaos: Whereas, after long years of patient toil and laborious effort a national appropriation has been made by the federal government for the preserva tion and marking of graves of Con federate soldiers who died while pris oners of war, and, Whereas, The great burden and necessary labor reqnired to escure this end has fallon upon the members of the Charles Broadway Bouss Camp No. 1191, especially upon Dr. Samuel E. Lewis, oommapdsr; Capt. E. W. Anderson, lieutenant commander; Capt. H. M. Marchant, oe o o u? lieu tenant commander; Capt. William Brown, adjutant, and Capt. Julias G.

Whereas, Tba marking of soldiers' graves under emoh circumstances, hes no parallel ie history; therefore belt Resolved, That the thanks, not es: ly of thio Association, but of all liv* ing* Confederates and. their sympa thisers and admirers are justly due these veterans and these noble and un s cluan' women who hare aceomplished this splendid sud mag nificent resuit.
