or may distinguish themselves in battle during the present war, I have the honor to make the following statement: At the outbreak of the rebellion the headquarters of the Eighth infantry were stationed at San Antonio, Texas. I was a corporal of company A of that regiment, and detailed as clerk at its headquarters. On the twenty-third of April, 1861, the officers and a few enlisted men at that time present at San Antonio were taken prisoners by the rebel troops under the command of Colonel Van Dorn. All the officers, with the exception of Lieutenant Edward L. Hartz, Adjutant, Eighth infantry, left a few days afterward for the States. A few days subsequent, going to the former office of the regimental headquarters, the building then in possession and under the control of the rebels, I met there Lieutenant Hartz and Sergeant-Major Joseph K. Wilson, Eighth infantry (now Second-Lieutenant, Eighth infantry). Our regimental colors being in the office, Lieutenant Hartz proposed to us

son's scouts stopped at the house of a wealthy planter, to feed their jaded horses. Upon ascertaining that he had been doing a little guerilla business upon his own account, our men encouraged him to the belief that, as they were the invincible Van Dorn cavalry, they would soon catch the Yankees. The secession gentleman heartily approved of what he supposed to be their intentions, and enjoined upon them the necessity of making as rapid marches as possible. As the men had discovered two splendr; I will keep your animals until you return; I suppose you'll be back in two or three days at the farthest. When you return you'll find they have been well cared for. The soldiers were sometimes asked where they got their blue coats. They always replied, if they were travelling under the name of Van Dorn's cavalry, that they took them at Holly Springs of the Yankees. This always excited great laughter among the secessionists. The scouts, however, usually wore the regular secesh uniforms.

ily increase the spirit of devotion among them. Hence there is a good deal of religious feeling in our congregations. The following will illustrate a phase of Southern society and the kindly relations and sympathies between master and slave which none can appreciate who did not witness them, but illustrations of which could be indefinitely multiplied. The incident is related by the Texas Christian Advocate: A Texas planter having responded in person to one of the late calls of Colonel Van Dorn for service in the West, his negroes were left in the care of the overseer. One night, at a late hour, the overseer was aroused by a noise at the quarter. He immediately arose and went in the direction of the noise far enough to ascertain that it was the voice of prayer. Drawing still nearer, he discovered that the prayer-meeting was a special occasion, for the benefit of the master who had gone to the wars. Earnest prayers ascended that his health and life might be spared, and that
