?. STUART'S FAMOUS BAH) IN PENNSYLVANIA. An Old Time Letter From a Gal lant Confederate, Now De ceased, to His Obtain. BEAR ADVERTISER: In looking over a batch of old letters written daring the war between tne States, I find one from a dear friend, a good and Christian gentleman, Creo. M. Grafton, who belonged to the Edgefield Hussars, and yhen that company re-organized in May, 1862 it took its, place as Co* I in the 2nd S. C. Cavalry. The follow ing is a copy of the letter, which I guess, will interest many of your readers. , J. J. BUNCH. CAMP NEAR MARTINSBURG, VA., j October 17th, 1862. . j DEAR CAPTAIN : As I have, not written to you in a long time, nor , haye not received.one from you in a good while, I have concluded to write you a few lines in this fas: off country, although I expect that it will be a long time before it will reach you, as we are so far from railroad communication that it will take almost an age for a letter to reach home, or reach here from home. I have just returned from a trip over in Pennsylvania and Mary land around the enemy's lines for the purpose of capturing horses. Gen. Stewart with a detail of 175 men from each regiment in the di visions (except|Cobb's Legion and Jeff Davis's Legion) crossed the river on Friday .morning at the McCoy's ferry, about 12 or 15 miles from Martinsbarg after surprising and capturing some of tho enemy's pickets, killing one of them. We kept" skirmishers out in front to prevent being ambushed or being fired on by bush-whackers, making for* the Pennsylvania line, when we commenced pressing in horses, taking them from every side, and from wherever we could find them. About 3 o'clock we reached Mer oersburg, our advance being a mile or so ahead, in which place the citizens were very nearly scared to death at our Budden appearance among them. We did not remain riere long before we commenced pressing on further in the direc t'ioa of Cbambersburg, turnpike, and in crossing through St. Thom astown before we reached Cnam bersburg, our advance was fired into- by the Home Guard of the place from the windows of the houses, but nobody was hurt. . Pressing on we reached Chambers burg about 9 o'clock Friday night when we sent a flag of truce de manding a surrender of the town. After unlimbering a piece of artil lery on the place the surrender was acceded to by the mayor, au " we stationed a provost guard, wi headquarters at the railroad dejpot where the public stores were. .There were about 200 r:>en und ^rms when they surxendere ..hom we paroled immediately. Next morning we commenced plundering the publico property - wnich were quartermaster's stores, such as overcoats, hats, boote, pants, drawers, socks, shirts, ord nance stores, embracing muskets, pistols, sabre belts and am mun i - tion of every kind, among it a lot captured from Gen. Longstreet by V the Yankees over in Maryland, which we recaptured and burnt. 1 being one of the provost guard got nearly everything I wished-five pistols, two overcoats, two pairs pants, five canteens, pair of boots, hat, haversack, two blankets which I divided among those of our company who were not so for tunate as I was. We then burnt up all the stores that we could not ^^^arry &way, a large lot of leather ^9Bng among it. All, I suppose, _?X5th about $500,000. We could ^"^.<oi?ar the bursting of shells and other ammunition a long time after we left the city, when we made for the Maryland line, press lng in all the horses that we could get until we got into Maryland. We passed : through a town in two miles of the line of Penney! . vania called Emmett s burg, where we met with a most enthusiastic reception. The inhabitants beiug hot secessionists, giving us bread, cakte, etc., to eat while passing through the streets and cheering us heartily. We then pressed on riding as rapidly as possible, changing the artillery horses every two or three ' hours, as we 'were in very great danger, as the Yankees camp was Tjsry close to us. We passed within Uro miles of some 2,000 infantry n?ar Woodboro Maryland, and in eight miles of Frederick City where there were 30,000 in camp We reached Hyattstown about 10 o'clock Saturday morning within - two o* ?bree miles of the river, and here Gen. Stewart showed his gen eralship. The Yankees tried to get in our rear when we were go ? ing down to the river to cross, but Gen. Stewart had a road cut through tne'woods and were right On. them ia their rear, causing , them to skedaddle in a hurry. . Our regiment being in the rear (it had occupied the advance all ?be time in Pennsylvania] were close pressed by .the .Yankees, but Hart's battery kept them in check ttptil we crossed the river, when wo had . a . battery planted on this side to command the ford and thus enable our artillery and the rear guard to cross over safely On the Virginia side of the river I felt safe, and we went near Lees burg and camped for the night. While we were at Hyattetown we captured a Yankee sutler and his.goods consisting of eleven bar rein of sweet crackers, two barrels of herring aud a quarter barrel of mackerel, which we disposed of after we crossed the river, as we had not had much to eat on ' the rout except at Chambersburg where we got plenty of butter, crackers, preserved fruits, etc. Next day we got to about 15 miles this side of Leebburg, where we waited toj cook some rations and "???I?. <-^'\?ustmttr feed our horses. Next morning, Tuesday, we started for camp, but had not proceeded far before we heard that' the Yankees were . ad vancing on the Leesburg and Win chester turnpike from the direc tion of Aldea, but we soon found out that it was nothing but a scouting party of about 40 Yan kees, but we arrived too late to cut them off. We then arrived at our camp near Marti?sburg Tues day night. Our horses and our selves very much iaaed and broken down. My horse stood the trip fine with the exception of a sore back, which I intend to cure up by resting him a while. One of Capt. Lipscomb's com pany captured five very fine field glasses at the Yankee signal sta tion on the other side of the river near the picket station, one of which he gave to Gen. Stewart, one to Gen, Hampton, one to Col. 3utler, one to his Lieutenant, a d one he kept for himself. Al .> pether it. ?vas ojie of the most suc cessful trips, or raids, if jzu choose io call it such, that has taken place during the war, and reflects a great desi of credit upon the generalship of Gen. Stewart. We captured about 1500 head of good horses, of them fine one, took between 200 and 300 prisoners and did not lose but two or three men, who were left behind by their own neglect, stopping to have their horses shod. The Yankees yesterday com menced to cross the river at Shep pard8town below, land heavy .can nonading was heard in that direc tion. Our regiment was ordered out and all the disabled horses back on the Winchester turnpike, about three miles this side of Martinnburg, where I am at pres ent. I heard this morning that our regiment bad one man killed from the Boykin Rangers in trying to draw the enemy out, being sent forward as an advance, when the Yankees fired into them, foiling one, but injuring no one else. Our infantry are now engaged in tearing up the track of the Balti more and Ohio railroad from Mar tinsburg and Winchester, to keep the railroad from profitiug them any this winter by bringing them supplies, as we intend soon to fall back from berti. I am very sorry to hear of the reverse wt have , met with at ^Corinth, Miss., though I" have not yet heard any particulars. Hope it is not as bad as reported, al- ' though we may expect reverses some times. AH the boys are well and getting1 along finely, they send their re-j spects to you. Accept my bost wishes for your welfare, i remain as ever Your devoted friend, GEO. M. GRAFTON. M.. A.

The law is as follows : Section 276-Every entry upon the lands of another, after notice from the owner or tenant prohibiiing the same, shall be a misdemeanor, and be punished by a fine not to exceed one hundred dollars or imprisonment with hard labor on the public works of the county not exceeding thirty days; Provided, That when any owner or tenant of any lands shall post a notice in four conspicuous places on the borders of any land prohibit ing entry thereon, and shall publish once a week 'for four successive weeks such notice in any newspaper circulating in the county where such lands are situated, a proof of the posting and of publishing of such ntice within tw?lve months prion to the entry, shall be deemad and taken as notic conclusive against the person making entry as sforesai for hunting.

A NONOGENARIAN WRITES A LETTER In The Southern Christian Advo cate That Will be of Great In terest to Edgefleid People, Es pecially to Methodists-Shat terfield in the Old Days. Dear Advocate: I am ninety ?years of age and I have pl asant recollections of you more than half my life. Laue and Tippet were the great men of the time when you wero published in Charleston. Now, my mind runs back to childhood and the surroundings in the oldeu time. I owe much to a book of precious songs, which the circuit preacher brought into "Sbatterfieid" community. I have a fragment of it y? t and have a great anxiety to pee the complete book once more, It was called the "Sacred Songster." John 0. Jor dan and John Morgan, of Ready Creek Church, each bought it. ' With the fond hope that some kind mortal will write to me and tell where a copy may be found, 1 men I don that it is a book of over 200 pages. Tho cxli hymn on page 153 begins thus : "Come all ye mourning pilgrims dear, Who're bound for Canan's land." About 1815 to 1820 the songs in this book stirred the religious sen timent of the community wonder fully, and many of them linger in my memory yet. . J_n J&W"?&3&3S2Sg<lJW!or three years. He was afterwards extensively known as a rare genius in.thewayofa preacher. Elijah Byrd and his brother preached in the adjoining circuit. Billy Rhodes was a leader in the community and church. Disorderly members were promptly called to account by him. He generally met the new preacher at the next nearest church to his own and took him to his home. . Molly Shellnut was one of the best women in the church. She en tertained the preachers often and especially in cases of sickness. Her cr-msel to young preachers was highly helpful to them. As ?one was departing she laid her j hand on his head and talked im ! passively, which he never forgot. When he was writing her obituary many years afterwards he said that here was still a sense of the press ure of that hand upon his head. Peggy Rush played the patron saint among the children. Her en tertainments of large groups ?? children on Easter occasions were her happiest days in the year. Everybody liked Aunt Peggy. If the preacher failed to reach an appointment she would hold a song and paryer service. Amos Weaver got &. wooden block turned ar a painted in exact imitation o? Aunt Peggy's dyed eggs, and won many an egg before his trick was discovered. The most exciting scene of my childhood was when Randall Ram sey stole Miss Darkiec Dorcas suppose) Wetherton, and galloped to the. magistrate's office and married her before he could be arrested. 0 ! how Miss Nancy did amack her hands and scream when the news was broken to her. The negroes came running from the fields to st? what was the matter with Miss Nancy. Mr. Rountree kept a country store. Mr. Perrin kept a store at Whithall. Fred Slappy was the wealthiest man in the neighbor hood. Jerry Martin was my first school teacher. He taught Dil worth's spelling book. Christopher Wetherton taught at Stone Spring. Scab Stalnaker was bailiff, and I thought he was as dangerous as a wild bear. John Slappy's mill on Cuffytown Creek was built by John 0. Jordan, the leading carpenter of the coun try. He was my father. The Burnetts, Hardins, Hogans, Weavers, Walkers, Moselys and Garners wore prominent ? familes about "Sbatterfieid." Will some one explain why such name was applied to a community? in these recollections of enrly childhood 1 may be remisB iu spelling names ; lor I was but a child when 1 waa removed to Georgia, never to see my first playgrounds again. My leading motive in writing of the people and places is to strike the attention of some one who can tell me where to '.find a copy of tho ''Sacred Songster^."
