d and fourteen wounded; and was in the reserve at battle of Goldsborough on the 17th, arriving at Newbern on the 20th. The regiment shared in the various expeditions sent out from Newbern. It took part in the siege of Washington, N. C., in April, 1863. On the 17th, three companies, under command of Major Dabney, supported by gunboat Commodore Hull, landed at Stile's Point, and occupied the rebel battery, destroying portions of their work, and building the entrenchments necessary to guard aude for his many proofs of confidence and acts of kindness; for the ready knowledge, wise precaution, steady nerve, and the inspiring, cheerful pluck, which so largely contributed to the successful issue of its service at Washington, N. C., in April, 1863. Among the losses, none fell more heavily than when, in Washington, April 11, 1863, the well-beloved surgeon, Robert Ware, was followed to the grave. He was a victim to the very disease from which he had rescued so many of the helpless and

It is proper to remark, that the forces under my command, from September to April, 1863, were rated by the public at twice and even thrice the actual numbers.

Campaign of 1863. The Southern history has the following on the campaign in April, 1863, which locates the position of Lieutenant-General Longstreet, viz.: Now they (the rebels) confronted the enemy from the Rappahannock, and hovered upon his flank, within striking distance, to the Potomac, while another portion of our forces manoeuvred almost in the rear, and quite upon the flank, in Norfolk. Longstreet had been promised sixty thousand men for his spring work, and was ready about the last of March to open the campaign for the recovery of Southern Virginia. He ordered Hill and Pettigrew to make a series of demonstrations at Newbern, Little Washington, and other points in North Carolina, with the design of causing troops to be sent from Norfolk, Fortress Monroe, and other localities. In consequence I was ordered, on the tenth of April, to despatch a considerable portion of my force to General Foster. Longstreet, advised of the order and success of his feints, crossed t

been called, found their way into the hands of very many men of this part of our army. A novel and excellent way was to string a number of tracts and suspend to a tree on the public road, on the Sabbath, inviting all who felt interested to pull off a tract and read it. Oft wagoners stopped their teams, and officers drew near on horseback, and men walking along would turn by to get a tract, and continue on their way reading the good news therein contained, as they went along the road. April, 1863. Our company was attached temporarily to Early's Division. During the intervals of repose we enjoyed from fighting, we held two of the most serious and interesting prayer-meetings I ever attended; a deep seriousness prevailed, and the most solemn attention was given while we exhorted sinners to come to Christ. And many conversations were held privately with numbers, from time to time, who appeared to be deeply interested in their souls' salvation. After the second battle of Fredericks
s looked forward to a dreary future, Miss Barton toiled on, infusing hope and cheerfulness into sad hearts, and bringing the consolations of religion to her aid, pointed them to the only true source of hope and comfort. In the early days of April, 1863, Miss Barton went to the South with the expectation of being present at the combined land and naval attack on Charleston. She reached the wharf at Hilton Head on the afternoon of the 7th, in time to hear the crack of Sumter's guns as they operge from the hospital. The informalities or blunders by which they too often lost their pay and were sometimes set down as deserters attracted her attention, and so far as possible she always procured the correction of those errors. Early in April, 1863, she made a flying visit to Philadelphia, and thus details in a letter to a friend, at the time the kind and amount of labor which almost always filled up every hour of those journeys.

two dollars and thirty-nine cents ($309,242.39). The amount of money raised and expended by the city during the war for State aid to soldiers families, and repaid by the Commonwealth, was as follows: In 1861, $20,276.24; in 1862, $87,239.31; in 1863, $90,000.00; in 1864, $85,000.00; in 1865, $52,000.00. Total amount, $334,515.55. The ladies of Lowell formed a Soldiers' Aid Society as early as April 20, 1861, which continued in vigorous action until the end of the war. A fair held in April, 1863, under the management of the ladies netted five thousand dollars. A great many boxes of clothing and sanitary stores were sent almost daily through the agencies of the Sanitary and Christian Commissions to the soldiers in camp and in the hospitals. We have not been able to get an exact statement of the value of the articles thus furnished, but good judges estimate that one hundred thousand dollars were raised in Lowell during the four years of the war by voluntary contributions for the S

We have seen how unsuccessful was the naval attack upon this city in April, 1863. It was not long, however, before another attempt was planned upon Fort Sumter and Charleston, the steps of which were the military occupation of Morris Island and the establishment of batteries on that island to assist in the reduction of Fort Sumter. The establishment of these batteries and the reduction of the Confederate works-Fort Wagner and Battery Gregg--was a matter of great engineering skill, and Gen. Q. A. Gillmore was selected to command the land forces of the enemy engaged
