But fortunately every command was pr< vid:d with the usential 4,way" who, more than any one else, nrdonired I 4 O the rtrugglo andimdo manifest the efficiency of our troops. Do'ph Knot was the futf maker of our command in both company and regimental, lie had a n ckuu:oo for every man and horse in the command. Some of theso names wero unheard of or unpronouncable b.fore Dolph begun to utilize them. Then they soon entered into the army vocabulary and their possessors carried them to the end ot the war or throughout life. It would take a volume of books to contain the commonest of these j >kes, some of which have never Lecn pul> lished while others have. A few of them might help to make areadtblo letter in this connection end keep these reminiscences from becoming monotonous. a . o 1 -- ill ui;u iiuir a iiiu iv UiU32l'U ^ UUU^ man, who no doubt thought himself too good to go to the war, rude up to a depot about the time a train filled with Confederated arrived. 1 he soldiers began to plugue him with all kinds of questions and pranks, asking him his age, occupation, mann is and objept of life and all such nonsense. Oucold fellow kept bulking round him with an eve intent on his person and viewing him from head to foot. This venerable sen c f mars would go round the yiuvg fellow making an . elliptical course with each revolution, whin at last he cried out: "Mister,' wuz you rai-jtd 'bout hore or did you come outer a drcve." A citizen with long hair, long whiskers, big mustache and grand imperial had his head sticking out at _ l t l n.i ? a winaow in lucumcnu. ice human face wn3 so completely Lid by ihe hairy covering al out, around ai.d under it that it seemed to be an immense mass of hair sticking cut of or pending fiom the window. A ragged soldier who had lost h;s lnrse was paesing and seeing the indistinct cut line of a human face called on one ( f his comrades and said: ' J ike, I've found inv old horse at last." 'Whai?" replied Jake. ' 4 Don't you see his tail sticking outer that window yonde:? I could swear to that tail 8nywhar. But how the old critter ever got up thar I con't tell." Its only necessaty to 83y here the tail was immediately withdrawn from the window. In one of the fights Gary's Brigade had on the Darbytown road in the fall of 1864 the cavalry were d smounted and went at it in old fashioned infantry style as they usually did along the lines at that time. Under a very heavy firo from the enemy our men were ordered to 4ilie down" and protect themselves as 1/ be->t they could. In front of Frank Millwood was a stump. Lt. G. II. Jeter told him to get behind it. After the fight was over ai.d Frank discovered that KP.vernl rriinnio hills had penetrated the stump ho said to Lt, Jeter: "It's well you told me to get behind that stump, Lieutenant, for if you hadn't I'd never got to see the cooling ground again. On one occasion two of eur scouts were at Mrs. Coles, near Barhamsville. Jt was a cold dark night in January, 1863. The house was surrounded by Yankee cavalry. Adjoining the room in which they were sleeping up 6taira just under the winaow was the piazza cover and a chimney run up between the dining ft room and the house. The house w&s surrounded before they knew any thing about it, and they just stepped out iu their night clothes on the top of the piazza and round behind the chimney and stayed there until a " V" search of the house satisfied the fedtfols that the rebels had lefc. As soon as the raiders got away the aS scouts returned to their bed and resumed their snoozing until a little before da j light when they slippc rut and got the rest oi their com pan ions and waylayed tie r ail at Wliit aker's mill when a skirmish figh took place about daylight i'l whiil two of our men who had been tukei prisoners g >t away from the federals Our men had torn up the bridge and tiken p^aiti >n on the top of the high bluff wbrro with guns, pistols r- cks ai <1 brickbats they fought in despera'i >n uutil the whole co'uinr was forced to retire so as to get a chance to fight at long range. The Confederates occupied a position nearly right over whore the column of Federal cavalry had to pa?s. In this attack Bill (.'ros^aud of Company A was shot through the hat w ith a urnnia bull which knocked itim senseless for a few minu'es, but before tin1 Federals cou'd cros3 the creek and renew the fight his cotnrr.arid had borne Mm to a place of safety where a hind lady cave him some peach brandy a?.d he s-mn revived. The next day we got a conveyance aul sent him to camp. I will give some o.her accvunts of our scouting paitics and iho trials to which they were efcen subjected at times. At the tame time I wouhl be glai to have the reminiscences of other commands to help fill out this department of our war history as 1 proceed which will doubtless interest our reudeis. While we were camped at Bottom's bridge in the summer of 18G3 a farmer brought a barrel of cider in'o camp and got permission from CjI. Shingler to sell it. SVhile ho \va3 drawing it off for his thirsty customers some mischievous wretch crept under his wagon and Inred a hole in barrel underneath and drew c (T a water bucket full aid band'd it round to his comrades and told them to help themselves. The vender was in bli sful ignorance of the transaction until he sold out and found his barrel had a hole in the other sdde of it. There has been several versions of the f.inoussong "All Q iiet Along the Po'.ouiac Tonight," but the foling is the original copy as v*c used to bear it sur-g by the Virginia g'rls in iho early sixties: 'am. qv1f.t ai.oxo the potomac." "All quiet on the Potomac" tonight, "Except now and then a stray picket Is shot as he walks his beat to and fro, Py a rilleman hid in the thicket." 'T.s nothing; a private or two now and then Will not ount in tho news of a battle. Not an otlicer lost?only one of the men, Moaning alone, all _alone the death rattlo. All quiet on the Potomac tonight, Where tho soldiers lie peacefully dreaming; Their tents in the rays of the clear autumn moon. Cr the light of the watch-fires arc gleaming, A tremulous sight, as the gentle night wind Through tho Toroit leaves slowly is creeping; While the stars up above, with their glittering eyes, Keep watch?for the army is sleeping. There's only tho sound of the lone sentry's tread, As ho trumps lrom the rock to the fountain, Thinking of tho two on the low trundlebed, Far away in the cot on the mountain; His gun falls slack?his face, dark acd grim, Glows gently with memories tender, As he mutters a prayer for the children asleep? For tho mother, mav heaven dofend her! The moon seems to shine as brightly as then, That night when the love, yet unspoken, Leaped up to his lips, and when murmured vows Were pledged, to be ever unbroken; Then, drawing his sleeve roughly over his eyes, lie dashes off tears that are welling, And gathers his gun up to its right Place, to keep down the heart swelling lie pa33es the fountain, the blasted tree, The footstep is lagging and weary, Yet onward ho goes, through the broad belt of light, Toward the shade of the forest Be dreary Hark! was it tho wind that rustled the leaves? Was it the moonlight so wondrousl> flashing? It looked like a rifle?"Ila! Mary, good bye!" And the life-blood is obbing and splashing. CHORUS, All quiet along the Potomac tonight, No sound save the rush of the river While soft falls tho dew on the face 01 dead? Tho picket's off duty forever.

At least the one 1 have bad lor over a week has had the grin on me and it wrm't turn loose, though 1 atn more than wil ing. 1 have hardly been in condiiion to do anythir g. It seems that business of saving what is made is holding firmcis s >| steadily that little in general Ins been done towards sowing oats and right now is the best t:me.

Tie winds have been blowing cut cotton where it is not kept closely up with and the rains beating it in the ground. We had a steady, and at lions, hard rain nil last Friday n:ght end Saturday, and besides beathg out cotton, plowing has been suspended for a few dijs. Last Saturday I reckon the biggest crowd was at a mule shoeing that ever was at or.o at this place. A uaule was sent to Mr. W. 0. Jeter's shop t) be shod and refused to bo, so stubbornly that ' throwing" was necessary, so it was thrown down, tied and held oq the ground until aho<s could be put on. Tbis attracted n | largo crowd, and tnauy, more than was necessary, both whi e and co', orcd voluutcercd to lend a helping hand, so tho mu'e was held so (irmly it was not hurt. Thero was such a crowd of inen around it that one could scarcely see it. - Isn't it a blessing to be out hero ' in the country and a Southern country, at the approach of cold weather, where wood is plentiful and to waste, only for the cutting and hauling, t and the coal striko and steep price of coal for heating pui poses is no men ' ace to us.

A go >d night's rest at the Buford House put u* in good tiim for the trip. Saturday morning wo hoarded the so called fust train rnd expected to cot to Alexandria by dark, bat we were disappointed and o;,ly pulled into Washington at midnight. We took a train fur Baltimore over the Pennsylvania 11. It. immed auly, but it was the accommodation train and I am sure it made ubout twenty dead stops in the forty miles and we arrived in Baltimore at 2 o'elock Sun- j day morning. We were soon in bed at the E itaw House and slept till 8 o'clock Snndsy. Then we had a good breakfast and the best beef steak 1 over tasted, then we were ready to look out upon the great commercial city of Baltimore, with its 700,000 ir.habitants. The ru n poured down most all day Sunday and made it uncomfortable. It was our object however, to visit Dr. A.
