* * * WAR TIMES. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * The Third regiment broke camp at Lightwood Knot springs some time in June, 1861, and went to Richmond, Va., by way of Sumter, Wilmington, Wel don and Petersburg. We camped near Holly Wood for a few days and then went on Manassas. We marched at night to Mitchell's ford on Bull run. We camped at Bull run for a few days. and then went to Ceiifreville and on to Fairfax-.C. H. We relieved the 1st S. C. regiment, who were No. 6 troops. The 3rd regiment camped below Fair fax on the Alexander road. The Sth regiment at Germantown, and the 2nd and 7th regiments around the court house. The four regiments formed the 1st brigade- of the army or Northern Virginia, and were placed in charge of M. L. Bonham, who was appointed bri gadier general. There were no other troops at or around Fairfax C. H. ex cept Kebper's batery of artilery and the famous Black Horse cavalry. The 3rd regiment picketed on the Alexan der road and the other regiments on different roads. We drilled daily and kept up a strict guard. On the morn ing of the 17th of July, 1861, the long roll was sounded. Our baggage was loaded on the wagons and sent to the rear. The regiment was formed at the breast works and our guns were loaded. Col. Williams made us a speech. We could not see any Federal troops in our front, but to the left of our regiment towards Flint Hill we could see the line Of battle, of the Federa.ls marching toward German town to cut us off from Centreville. Our regiment marched by the left in front, passed through Fairfax C. H., toward Germantown. The 7th and 2nd prededed us.- Na passed through Ger -mantown. The 8th regiment was hold ing the line at that place until we could g4t through. Here occurred one of the strange things of the war. The 8th held the line until the Fed erals were nearly on them. Not a gun was fired by either army. The 8th was ordered to' retire which they did orderly. The 3rd regiment waited until 'the 8th regiment had passed them. Then the 3rd regiment brought up the rear to Centreville. That night the brigade moved back to 'Buli Run and took position at -MNitchell's fo'rd. Kemper's battery was placed across Bull Run and when the Federals ad vanced they opened fire on them. This checked the advance and the battery retired across Bull Run. Later in the day (July 18) the Federals attacked Longstreet's troops lower down Bull Aun and were repulsed. Our line at Mitchell's lord was shelled by the Federal cannon, but they shot too high and uone of our troops were wounded. Our brigade having occupied the front, were given the centre of the line and We were very anxious for the Federals to attack us. We had a splendid posi tion and good rifle pits, but we were disappointed. Sunday morning, July 21, 1861, the battle began up the run to our left. Late in the afternoon the 7th and 8th regiments were carried to the field and gaves a good account of themselves. When the route of Feder als began the 3d and 7th regiments were carried across Bull Run and placed in line of battle facing Centre-. viIle, and could see the Federals run .ning towards Centreville, but we were not allowed to advance, but kept in our place. -And the result was- that Gen. Bonham was not made major genera? and Col. Williams failed to be a bri gadier general. General Earl Van Dorn ,was made a major general and placed over us. Bonham's brigade: was the 1st brigade at the front, and we became the 1st brigaue of the 1st division of the 1st corps of the army! of Northern Virginia. X-Confed. .iCickamnauga Park.

Many membe: of both house and senate, in the clo ing days of the session, when it w, too hot to make speeches or to list( to them, asked "leave to print." The members have been preparing the ebullition in the comfort of the big c fices furnished them by the govzr: ment, with their electric fans and the ice-water and other hot weather co: veniences at hand, and they appear the Congressional Record, just as the sentiments had been delivered the floor during the session. Campaign Literature. In The Record for June 29, for i: stance-four days after the adjour ment of congress-there appears the first page a "speech" of Hen: Sherman Boutell of Illinois, "in t] house of representatives, Saturda June 25, 1910." The subject of tb particular speech is "Legislation E acted by the . Sixty-first Congresz Of course it is simply a campaign d cument, and consists, safter a few i troductory remarks, of a list, thr columns in length, reciting the titl of "important public laws passed" I the Sixty-first congress. First ai foremost is the Payne tariff act. T] railroad law which was -insisted-up4 by the president, the statehood at the postal savings bank act, and number of others are listed, The id is to have the speech printed pamphlet form, so that it can be se out from one -end of the country to t] other under frank-that is, at the e pense of the people who pay the tax -to' "educate" the people to belie that the Republican party is the friend. Trying to Make Totes. It is interesting to note, in this co: nection, that the list of "importa: public laws" given by Henry Sherms Boutell of Illinois, includes a joi: resolution, which in effect provid, for the "marking of the graves of ti soldiers and sailors of the Confedera army and navy who died in Northe: prisons and were buried near the pri ons where they died."- The list al: includes a "joint resolution authori ing the secretary of war to loan ce tain tents for the use .of the Confe' erate veterans reunion, to be held Mobile, Ala., in April, 1910." These ar as stated, joint resolutions, and n "important public laws." But the fa, that the Henry Sherman Boutell ses fit to "feature" them in a Republics campaign document would indica that somewhere, somehow, the Col federate soldier is wanted to suppo the Republican party. Another "important public law" the joint resolution proposing an 1l come tax amendment to the constiti tion of the United States.

HAPPENED TO BE AUTHOR 1,at Anecdotes About His Celebrated Work ait: on Negotiable Instruments and Why He Wrote It. K is-4 The State. iri Washington, July 2.-The death of Senator John Warwick Daniel recalls the fact that Chas. A. Douglass, of Winnsboro, S. C., now of the Washing aton bar, is the editor of an edition of "Daniel on Negotiable Instruments," perhaps the greatest work on the law of bills and notes ever wgitten in the English language. Mr. Douglas' worik is popularly known as "Douglas on n Daniel," which means that' an 'edition of Daniel's work was prepared by Douglas, -with added -cases and edi torial notes. Mr. Douglas lectures on rthis subject in the law school of the Georgetown university, in this city. tThe story is told, and Mr. Douglas himself tells it, that the writing by >Senator Daniel of this famous work twas more or less accidental. It is said that young Daniel at the University of Virginia, got along pretty well in most of the branches of th,e law, but that on 1the subject of negotiable paper, he ac Stually failed in his examination. This fact determined him to master the sub ject, after he should leave college. Aft ser finally "cramming" sufficiently to get past his examinations, and get a sheepskin from the university, the young lawyer began a systematic study of cheeks, bills, drafts, notes, etc., one of the most technical and complicated subjects of, the law. He made numerous 'notes, in aid of his memory and perception. Later the idea -of rearranging his notes and pub *lishing them entered his mind, and he decided to undertake the task. The publication of the book attracted at tention from the legal profession on both sides of the Atlantic, and it is anow stated that "Daniel on Negotiable ;Instruments" is the premier work on ~the subject.. Another story is told of the writi g of the book by "Law Notes," a monthly.I * professional magazine. This s'tory is "as follows: "As every lawyer knows, or, at least, ought to know, Senator'Daniel, of Vir 1 ginia, is the author of a standard work on negotiable instruments, which, by: e the way, is charM6teised by about motelegant literai-y style to be found law book. On one occasion a friend inquired of the senator how he came to write the bookr. 'weln:.h-e rer 'it was this way. Somebody asked me whether a sight draft bore interest, d and I couldn't tell him. I was so e ashamed of my ignorance that I deter emined to master the question at once, 1and from my study on this point I got the idea of writing a book on the sub ject.' "Well, senator,' asked the friend, 'does a sight draft bear interest?" Senator Daniel reflected for some mo Iments and then replied, 'Blamed if I: haven't forgotten!" T.H.
