emained with my family till the time approached for me to return to Louisiana. I again left my family at Lancaster, until assured of the completion of the two buildings designed for the married professors for which I had contracted that spring with Mr. Mills, of Alexandria, and which were well under progress when I left in August. One of these was designed for me and the other for Vallas. Mr. Ewing presented me with a horse, which I took down the river with me, and en route I ordered from Grimsley & Co. a full equipment of saddle, bridle, etc., the same that I used in the war, and which I lost with my horse. shot under me at Shiloh. Reaching Alexandria early in October, I pushed forward the construction of the two buildings, some fences, gates, and all other work, with the object of a more perfect start at the opening of the regular term November 1, 1860. About this time Dr. Powhatan Clark was elected Assistant Professor of Chemistry, etc., and acted as secretary of the Board

to make the enemy understand that they yielded to overwhelming numbers. The remainder of the Rappahannock company, led by the gallant Grimsley, having worsted four or five times their numbers at Judge Robert McKay's, a half mile distant, now appeared on the scene, accompanied by Captain Baxter's Rockingham company of the same regiment of cavalry, and a portion of the Confederate First Maryland Infantry. They found the Federals drawn up in a strong line extending across the McKay orchard. Grimsley and Baxter charged them twice, and for a while the fighting was very bitter. The Rappahannock company alone in these two charges lost nineteen in killed and wounded, including Captain Baxter killed. The Maryland Federals were, however, at length driven from the orchard in great confusion. They were followed in hot pursuit by the Maryland Confederates, who captured their flag. Miss McKay had witnessed the bloody struggle from her father's front porch. She saw the Federal flag carried of

with his luxuriant black hair parted down the middle. Mrs. Lincoln wore a rich bright crimson watered silk, with point lace cape, white and red camelias in her hair, pearl band and necklace, and other ornaments of pearl. Mrs. Kellogg (sister of Mrs. Lincoln) wore a chaste ashes-of-roses brocade silk, with diamond ornaments, and hair tastefully dressed with white and red camelias. --Mrs. Edwards (sister of Mrs. Lincoln) wore a brown satin brocale dress, with rich crimson flowers and white feathers. Miss Edwards (niece of Mrs. Lincoln) was dressed in a fine, embroidered, needle-work robe, with appropriate ornaments, characterized by a simpilcity and elegance becoming her youth. Mrs Baker (niece of Mrs. Lincoln) wore a tastel ullemon colored, watered silk, with point lace trimmings, pearl ornaments, and cherry-colored verbena head-dress. Mrs. Grimsley (cousin to Mrs. Lincoln) was dressed in a blue, embroidered silk, with ornaments of turquois, and with white japonicas in her hair.
, wounded, and prisoners, the 1st Yankee Maryland regiment was actually demolished, not more than fifteen escaping. After the rout was complete, and most of the prisoners captured, others came up and assisted in taking prisoners. Owing to the difficulty in crossing the bridge at Front Royal, which had been set on fire by the enemy, it was difficult for the cavalry to cross the river, which accounts for so small a portion of the cavalry being in the fight. There were but four companies in the charge, which were--Capt. Dulany's company, Capt. Grimsley's, Capt. Flournoy's, and the lamented Capt. George Baxter's. Three other companies of the 6th came up in time to follow in the pursuit, viz: Capt. Richards's company. Capt. Throckmorton's, and Capt. Row's. The rout of the enemy was complete, and this charge of the 6th is considered one of the best cavalry charges that has been made during the present war, and it is due the 6th that it should have the credit of its own deeds. Justice.
