And donned his Sunday suit ind went
Straightway to Sally’s home.

And when he asked her for her hand,
In a very pathetic way,

Sally struck an attitude,
And thus to him did say :

Hr. Jones, such talk from you
Is really most absurd,

Leave the bouse this instant, sir,
I’ll not hear another word."

And proudly sweeping from the room,
She left him seated there ;

He gasped for breath, then seized his hat
And rushed out in despair.

And never pausing to look back,
He quickly bomeWard flew,

With broken heart, and frenzied look,
Resolved on what to do.

He shot himself right through the heart,
The neighbors heard his groans.

And rushing to the barn they found
The corpse of William Jones.

An Ancient Toast.

- It wasa grand day in the old chlvalric time, the
wine circling around the board in a noble hall, and
the sculptured walls rangwltb sentiment and long.
The lady of each knightly heart was pledged by
name, and many a syllable of lovelinea'l'bad been
uttered, until it came to St. Leon’s turn, when, lift-
ing the sparkling cup on high—

“Idririk to on." he said.

“ Whose image never may depart,
Deep graven on a grateful heart.
Till memory is dead.

To one whose love for me shall last. _

When lighterpa'asions long have plead.
So holy ’tis and true. .

To one whoselovc bath longer dwelt.

More deeply fixed more keenly felt.
Than any pledged by you."

Each guest upstarted at the word,
And laldIa baud upon his sword.
With fiery-dashing eye; ,
And stasieyssid : ' “ We crave the caste,
Proud knight“ this most peerless dame.
Whose name you count so high." ’

St. Leon paused» if he would
Not breathe her name in careless mood,
Thus lightly to another ;
Then bent his noble head as though
To give the name the reverence due,
— And gently said “ Mr 101ml”

Dear Guarani : Perhaps no account will

which resulted in theevaciiation of Peters-

willbe anxious for details, and’tbe full rec-

it was quietly encamped on the New Market -
road, before Richmond, where there was

good reason to believe it would remain until

that city was evacuated in consequence of

movements on the left, then to enter unop-

posed—as the firms of Gen. Weitzel were

ultimately permitted to. But- on the 28th

came orders for an immediate move. Fos-

ter's division struck tents, and during the

night marched down the road to Deep Bot-

tom, over the James to Jones Landing—the

men singing cheerily as they went—and
across the Appomatox bridge to Broadway

Landing, hurrying at double quick the lat-

ter part of the way, to be over the river be-

fore daylight lest the rebels should note their

passage.

On Wednesday, with but a half hour’s
rest for coffee, the troops pushed on towards
Butcher’s Run, bivouacking at night in an
open field. At 3 a. m. on Thursday, they
were again ofi‘, hurrying at a tearing rate to
the extreme left of our works, which they
entered just as the Second Corpspassed out
to follow Sheridan, who was then moving
across their rear towards the SOutbinderOad
beyond. Up to this time only women of
the Tenth had fallen out without permission

continued to the end.

of the regiment was directed rejoin" the brig-
ade in a move to. support the picket line in

big under a temporary fit of insanity from
the efiect of his old wounds. no was a
brave and eflcient omcer, having been twice
wounded—in the battle Of Roanoke" 'and
again at Deep run in August last. His loss
is much regretted. After a short time the
10th was moved out of the breastwOrks to
the edge of the woods, a little to the right,
where they threw up temperary breastworks,
having a good coverin about thi'eefiharters
of an hour, eliciting the praise ‘of their di-
vision commander, that the Tenth boys
would cover their front in less time than any
body of men he ever saw, doing as much in
an hour as300 men he had elsewere, bad
accomplished in all night.

Oii'Saturday, April let, the troops were
up at 8 a. m. Hardly were they on their
feet when the rebels came down with a vig-
orous assault, dfiving in the Union pickets
and pressing up to within a few yards
of a work built and occupied by the
11th Maine, into which the 10th hurried
to aid their well tried and ever true com-
rades in repelling the assault. The onset
was stayed, and twenty-four rebels including
a commissioned officer, were taken, some of
them being actually drawn over the breast-
works, head first. The remainder of Satur-
day was spent in skirmishing.

Sabbath, April 2d, was the day of terrible

battle; at 2 a. m. the troops were in~ line,

standing to arms until daylight. Then came
orders to move hurriedly to the right, and
there was a march at double—quick, without
breakfast or cofi'ee,for four or five miles, un-
til_a position was reached opposite Fort
Gregg, where the line of battle was again
formed. Fort Gregg was one of the strong
detached works of the inner line of rebel de-
fences—the outer of which had been broken
down by the 6th corps, which was now-..
pushing towards Petersbnrg, leaving the
still held single forts to be attacked by the
24th corps. For an hour after reaching their
new position, Foster’s troops lay under a se-
vere cross-fire from Cemetery Hill on the
right and Fort Baldwin bu the left, in 'addi-
tion to the direct fire from Fort Gregg. The
10th was just opposite the front of Gregg,
at the nearest part bf the line to it. Three
companies of the regiment were thrown out
as skirmisbers to try to keep down the cue-
my’s artillery fire. Just at this time the
men who had been on picket being relieved.

. came up to participate in the assault 'fOr

which preparations were in progress.
Everything being ready, the whole line

1 advanced under beavyfirc of grape and can:
flatter and musketry from Greg, and of shot
1 and shell'from the forts on either flank.

When within about 150 yards of the fort,
Lieut.-Col. Goodyear gave his men the order
to double—quick and charge. Fort Gregg
was occupied by 600 rebels, volunteers
pledged to defend it to the very last, as the
key of Lee’s entire position, and they did
their work bravely. Sharp-shooters lined
the parapet, pouring out a deadly fire on the
advancing Union line, while the artillerists
worked their gunswiih the energy of des-
peration. Men fell at every step of the rush-
ing advance, but the wasting line never wa-
vered. The broad, deep ditch was reached.
Men jumped into the breast-high water, and
making a living bridge of each other, clam-
bered up the steep sides beyond, and the blue
silk State flag of the Connecticut Tenth was
the first planted on the parapet , while but a
moment later the 100th New York, of the
same “Iron Brigade,” raised their colors on
another angle of the fort.

But the flight had just begun. The men
who had sworn to defend that fort were
bound to redeem their pledge. They would
not'surrender. A desperate band to hand
struggle commenced, and with bayonet and
musket butt the battle went on. Still the liv-
ing bridge across the ditch passed up the de
termined assailants, and flag after flag - ap-
pearedrabove the slope until five Union
standards wave'd as ng the parapet of the one
face stormed by th, Tenth. . And when a flag
was lifted up, every omcer and man who
followed it seemed determined to die in its
defense before he would yield or withdraw
it. And still the despairing rebels stood
their ground, asking no quarter. It was
forty minutes after the flag of the Tenth was
planted on the fort before the fight was over.
As the brave boys said, they “had to pound
victory out of those stubborn felloWs.” 'But
at length the garison was fully overpowered
and the fort was surrendered. That hour’s
work was the severest in all the fighting of
three days before Petersburg, and its results
the must important. President Lincoln and
Lieut.-Gen. Grant mentioned it in terms of
warmest praise, as an act of special gallant-
ry, and it was the only assault ofwhich men-
tion was made in any of the dispatches of
those distinguished ofllcials during the first
three days of battle.

Nineteen rebels killed by bayonet thrusts
,lay dead in the fort at the close of the en-
gagement, while others wounded by the same
rarely-used weapon were taken up by the
score, and many a rebel fell by a blow
from a rifle butt. The hospital here,
"where the wounded were brought, testifies
todayto the number of men thus injured.
Maj-Gen. Gibbon, who witnessed the as-
sault, says, I am told, that he had read and
heard of such prolonged band to hand strug-
gles, but he had never before credited the

truth of such a contest. The ground in
front of the fort was covered with the dead
and wounded 'of the assailing party, while
many of them lay in the ditch, on the para-
lpet. or within the enclosure. '

Praises of the Tenth are in the mouths of
many. Good General Plaisted says enthusi
astically, “The Tenth surpassed itself.” Some
questions having arisen as to which flag
went first up on the fort, General Gibbon
sent for the several colors to be brought to
him, and selected that of the Tenth as the
one which he saw go up before any other;
was there. This flag was never in battle
before. It is the richly embroidered blue
silk standard presented bygpthe State a few
months since. It has 23 bullet holes through
it, and three in the staff. Pretty well for
the first fight.

Speech of Gen. Butler.

BOSTON, June 18.—At the collation which
followed the monument dedication ceremo-
nies in Lowell yesterday, Gen. Butler respon-
ded to the toast complimentary to the army
and navy in which he argued that the con-
ficated lands forfeited by treason should be
given to the soldiers who had put down the
rebellion. In further remarks on the subject
the General said :—-“ While then we give ev-
ery guerdon to the citizen soldiers who went
forth from the free North, from New Eng-
land, and from the States East and West,
guided by intelligence and instructed in their
political rights and burning for national
honor, what shallwe say of another class of
soldiers—a class who had had no instruc-
tions, no political rights, had had no joy in
the past and little hope in the future—what
1o say of those coloreimen, who with. in-
stiuctlve loyalty and patriotism volunteered
with us in our defence ? Shall there be no
word of encouragement for the negro sol-
dier, who stood side by side fighting for the
country which had been heretofore unjust
to him, but who, relying in the future upon
his faith, in the justice ol'omnipotent God,=
still stood up and fought bravely. Is there
no reward to be given him ? Shall be be-de-
nied even the poor honor of participating in
the review of the troops who won those
great victories 'at the National Capital ? I
trust the country will never be guilty of such
ingratitude. I may make such a promise as
will never cease to urge upon the govern—
ment to do justice to the negro, at least to al-
low him to appear in arms in the capital
that be helped to save by his valor, and
again I appeal to the men of Massachusetts
to say whether the man that is fit to fight is
not fit to vote, (cheers) Whether a man
that call carry a cartridge box is not fit to
walk up to the ballot box, whether the man
who knows how to handle a bayonet does
not know how to handle a little bit of paper?

I am ready to admit the want of intelli-
gence and cultivation in the negro. I know
he is ignorant, but he knew enough to be
right in this contest—to be loyal—and that
is a great deal more than his master did.—
(Cbeers and laughter.) And therefore as I
know from having seen the rolls of ten thou-
sand of' the rank and file of the Confederate
army. prisoners, as I know that only one in
eight was able to sign his name, in this re-‘
construction we have got to trust to the in-
stinct and not to the intellectual cultivation
of the voter. I had rather trust to the loyal
black instinct than to the disloyal white in-
stinct. (Laughter.) Therefore my friends,
I think we can ask the Government to hold
on and first punish the disloyal citizen either
by the loss of his life, his liberty, or his land,
according to the decree of the Government.
But do not punish the loyal citizen who has
done everything that the ability which God
has given him would permit to further the
cause of Union and Government.

I further ask the Government simply to
wait and see who its friends are; to deal
only with those that are friends to-day, not
of the lip out of the heart, and deal with the
men who have fought for it, and not with
those who fought against it; to give politi-
cal rights to those who have defended them,
and not to those who have undertaken to
overthrow them. Let us have the whole
army, regulars and volunteers, citizen sol-
diets, black, white and gray, who fought for
us, and give each and all their due proportion
of the praise. (Cheers).

A pleasing incident attending the exercises
was the presentation of an elegant silk flag,
a silver plate on the staff of which bears the
following inscription : “ Maryland to Massa-
chusetts. April 19th, 1865. May the union
and friendship of the future obliterate the
anguish of the past.”

Lieut.-Col. Tyson, of Gov. Bradford‘s staff,
presented the flag with an eloquent address,
which was appropriately responded to by
Governor Andrew.
