oad to Culpeper Court House and the Orange and Alexandria Railroad, about two miles from Mitchell's Station. Our army was spread over the space between the stage road and the mountain, and along the northeastern slope of the mountain. The plantations which were the theatre of the late tragedy originally composed the farm of Capt. Philip Slaughter, an old revolutionary officer, who died in 1849 and who predicted that this country would soon become a battle ground between the Yankees and the Cavaliers. One of those farms, which was the centre of the late battle, he called Brandywine, because of the supposed resemblance to the field of battle in Delaware in which Capt. Slaughter war an actor. The three sons of the venerable revolutionary officer have been heavy inerts by the depredations of the Yankee rogues. The old county of Culpeper, the county of the "Minute Men of the Resolution," is writhing under the heels of the despot, but the spirit of the siren still lives in their sons.
