“A: last the remnant of Gen; Banks' braken
army was all acres, just in time, for at that
moment Jackson appeared opposite on the
Virginia side of the Potomac.

“Never were more grateful hearts in the
same number of men than when at midday
on the 26th5we stood on the opposite shore,”
said Gen. Banks afterward.

Gen. Banks was so deeply chagrined at his
forced retreat .that he is said to have shed
tears Over it. He declared that he had been
sacrificed by his government, that had
stripped him of Shields’ division and then left
him to meet Stonewall Jackson with lam than
a third the number of the Confederate
troops. .

On May 27 Jackson rested one day and had
religious service performed in camp, in which
he gave thanks to ,God for the victory ,of the
southern arms. He had marched from his
camp south of Luray in three days a distance
of sixty miles, and had fought two battles on
the way.

May 24 there was a panic in Washington
when it became known that Banks was re
treating to the Potomac with Jackson after
him full tilt. Jackson’s Shenandoah cam-
paign. probably prevented the capture of
Richmond 'by McClellan in the summer of
1862. McDowell was at Fredericksburg with
40,000 men under orders to co-operate with
and finally join McClellan before Richmoud.
The defeat of Milroy and the chase of Banks
down the Shenandoah shattered at one stroke
the plans in front of Richmond. President
Lincoln telegraphed McDowell May 24 to put
20,000 men' in motion for the Shenandoah
valley at once. McDowell obeyed reluctantly.
He wrote the president: “I have a heavy
heart in the matter. I feel» that it throws us
all back, and from Richmond north we shall
have all our large masses paralyzed.”

Jackson hsdidriven Banks down and out of
the Shenandoah valley and marched his army
almost into the very teeth of Washington.

But the’now thoroughlyaroused Union armies

were undoubtedly
marching up 0 n
h i m , McDowell’s
force from the east,
Fremont’s from the
west. How should
he get out and back
up the Shenandoah
valley? He had ac-
complished entirely
w h a t h e h a d ,
planned to do.
That was to give .
the Washington . .-
authorities a scare
and prevent Me. MAJ. GEN. J. c. FREMONT.

 
 
 

Dowel] from joining McClellan before Rich- ~

mond. He had now to look out for his own
safety.

On the 20th Jackson began to retreat from
the Potomac south and up the Shenandoah
valley. It was necessaryto use all pOssible
haste. in order to slip through between Fre-
mont on the west and Shields’ division of Mc-
Dowell’s corps on the east. Once past them
he could go to Johnston’s army and to Rich-
mond.

May 29, before leaving the Potomac, his
rear guard made a pretended attack on Har-
per’s Ferry and Charlestown, while his sup-
ply and ammunition trains were being sent
south in the advance. J ackson’s favorite solo
diers werethose of his old command, called
the Stonewall brigade. They led the attack
on Charlestown.

Many of Jackson’s soldiers were from the
vicinity of Chariestown and had not seen
their families for a year. But not a moment
were they allowed todelay. After making
the show of battle at Harper’s Ferry and
CharleStown they were hurried southward.
May 30 Jackson’s whole army was at Win-
chester, heading southward for Strasburg
with might and main.

Both Fremont and Shields—one on one side,
the other on the other—were trying to get
there too, and to get there before Jackson
did. Their forces united, Jackson was crushed.
The daring Confederate was thus “between
the devil and the deep sea.” It was one of
the most exciting races of the civil .war.
Strasburg was the key to the situation. For
Jackson it was Strasburg and liberty; or,
losing it, annihilation. Both Shields and
Fremont had expressed their determination
to “bag Jackson.”

May 31, after a forced march arrow the
mountains, Fremont had gained the road be-
tween Winchester and Stresburg. Jackson
had passed that point onlyafew hours be-
fore. Fast followed Fremont. He caught
Jackson’s rear. There was a sharp skirmish,
June 1. Fremont‘s advance was beaten back.
Victory! Jackson was at Strasburg. Be-
tween afternoon May30 and daylight June
1 his men had marched from Harper’s Ferry
to Strasburg. fifty miles.

It was Gen. Ewell—Richard Stoddard Ewell
—who drove back Fremont’s advance at
Strasburg and enabled Jackson to reach that
city in safety. Ewell was born in the Dis-

- , trict of Columbia

in 1816. He was a

West Point gradu-

ate, like most of

the leading officers
of the civil war on
both sides. Hewas

a Mexican war oili-

cer, had seen hard

Indian service, and

during the civil
', war took part in

\ ., fighting in Virginia

' - " from the beginning
GEN. EWELL, C. S. A. to the end, After
the death of Jackson at Chaucellorsville Ewell
took command of his division. Ewell passed
through four years of hard fighting un-
scathed, up to the very last week of the war,‘
April 6, 1865, when he was taken prisoner be-
fore Richmond. , He died in 1872.

To get the next movements of the valley
campaign clearly, observe on the map the pe-
culiar direction of the two branches of the
Shenandoah. When Jackson reached Stras-
burg Shields had already been at Front
Royal, a few miles southeast, for two days.
Why he did not push on and intercept Jack-
son is not clear. Shields moved slowly up
the east side of the south fork. Jackson sent
hurriedly ahead of him and destroyed the
bridges over the south fork at Luray and
elsewhere. ‘He himself. hotly pursued by
Fremont, hastened up the west side of the
north fork. He crossed it at Mount Jackson,
a little to the north of Newmarket, and cut
away the bridge behind him. He was thus
between the two forks of the Shenandoah,
with'an enemy on each side of him, but with
the bridges of both streams burned, so neither
could get at him immediately.

Still he raced On and on, without sleep or
rest. June 5 he reached Harrisonb'urg. Fre-
mont marched as ceaselessly as himself, and
was hot after him. He dared not wait. A1-
most at bay he turned now to the south and
eastward. toward Richmond and the Con-
federate army. He aimed to reach Port Ro-
public, a village on the east side of the south
fork. Destroying the bridge at Mount J ack-
son had given the bold racers. good day’s
start of Fremont, who had to wait to rebuild

the brid e. ‘

c a v al ry-man.- '
There were oppOr-
tunities for dash
and daring, for
wild rides and hair
breadth escapes,
which appealed to
all the love of ex-
citement in him; ..

And so it was he 3,
met his death at
the battle of Har-
risonburg, June 7.

June 7 Col. Sir
Percy I‘Vyndham, of the Union cavalry, made
a reconnaissance toward Harrisonburg. He
fell into a Confederate ambush and was taken
prisoner with his men. Following this was
an infantry fight. Coll 'Wyndhaln was an
Englishman. He had been a captain in the
Austrian army and had served under Gari-
baldi. He was aiming especially to “bag”
Turner Ashby.

Col. Wyndham’s cavalry was followed bya
large body of infantry. On the Confederate
side Gen. Ewell came up With infantry. This
battle of Hurrisonburg, the 7th of‘ J unc, was
the fifth considerable fight of the campaign.

The Federal Iegiments were partly behind
a fence. g. The Confederates advanced against
them through a tangled underwood. Ashby
led the charge, with the Fifty-eighth Virgin in.
it made litt c impression, but received i. 117:-
mendous fire from the Federal regiments.
The impatient nature of Ashby was on fire.
He ordered the Fifty-eighth Virginia to stop
firing and charge bayonet on the Federals.
He spurred his horse forward, wavcd his arm
and shouted: “Virginians, follow me!” A
ball struck his horse and the animal fell dead.
He sprang to hisfeet and rushed on, still or-
dering his men to charge bayonet. At that
moment a bullet pierced him and he fell (lend.
His men carried his body in their arms off
the battle field.

Gen. Ewell had ordered up more regiments
and there was fierce fighting. Severul'Con-
Iederate officers were shot dead, and the
colors of the First Confederate Maryland
were shot down three times. Still the Union
troops were checked, just at the moment
when Ashby dropped dead.

Whost for horses and the chase. He
was a famous rider and horse tamer, the best
inVirginia itis said. He was rather small
21 stature, but very graceful, with brown
Iyes and a soft clear voice. His complexion

north fork of the Shenandoah at

 

 

was dark to swsrthiness, and he wore his
black beard long.

He was no disciplinarian, and could
scarcely drill a regiment. But there . was a
feeling of good comradeship between him and
his men which held them to him to the death.
Wherever wild riding and hot fighting were
needed there was Turner Ashby and his
men.

Fremont had rebuilt the bridge across the
Mount J ack-
son, crossed the stream and was following on -
as closely as might be after Jackson. Shields
was on the east side of the Shenandoah south
fork, and Shields and Fremont were about
fifteen miles apart, on opposite sides of the
south fork, with no bridges between them.
Jackson had shrewdly destroyed these.

 

CROSS KEYS AND PORT AREPUBLIC.

 

June 8, Jackson’s rear, commanded by
Ewell, was at Cross Keys, written also X
Keys.

In this famous race the Confederate army
had now nearly reached the upper end of 'the
Shenandoah, and had not yet been captured.
Either side of them was an army quite equal
in size to them ready to pounce upon them.
About six miles southeast of Cross Keys was
Port Republic, on the south fork. Iicro there
yet remained a bridge. All depended 011
whether Shields on the east side or J ackson on
the west side of the south fork rcachcd Port
Republic and that bridge first. On the 8th
Jackson himself, with his advance, was four
miles south of Ewell and nearer i‘m-t Ile-
public.

J uue 8 Fremont attacked Ewell, and the
battle of Gran Keys took place. It was
fought by Jackson’s rear and Fremont’s ad-
vance. Ewell had 6,000 men in action,_Fre~
mont about 8,000. This was the sixth battle
in the campaign of the Shenandoah valley.
The battle began at 11 in the forcnoon and
lasted till dark.

The battle of Cross Keys itself was not a
decisive one, but it resulted in a decided ad-
vantage to the Confederates. It kept Fre-
mont back, and thus prevented him from
attacking Jackson’s whole force in the rear
while Shields fell upon him on the left and
east.

Aheady had Shields’ advance reached Port
Republic when the battle of Cross Keys was
fought on the 8th.
His cavalry had
crossed the bridge
here and planted a
gun at the bridge
entrance. The Con-
federates d r o v 9
them back and cap-
tured the gun. The
real battle of Port

place next day,
June 9. After re-
pelling Fremont’s
advance, Ewell,
under cover of the SECRI’I‘ARY STANTON.
darkness, had swiftly and silently withdrawn
his force from the battle field of Cross Keys
and joined Jackson. The dawn of the 9th
found the Confederate army united and ready
for battle opposite Port Republic.

Jackson thought quickly and acted almost
as rapidly. He determined to hurry across
the river, burn the bridge behind him, so
Fremont could not cross, then attack Shields
and have it out with him. This was similar
to Jackson’s tactics throughout the cam-
paign.

The plan was executed as designed.

Col. Tyler led Shields’ advance. He had
only 3,000 men, however, to throw against
Jackson‘s whole army. The “Stonewall brig—
ade” met them filst, flying beneath the Con-
federate the blue flag of Virginia. The brig-
age was commanded by Gen. Winder, and
Jackson himself was with it.

They opened a lively fire, but Col. Tyler’s
heavy artillery was too much for even the
Stonewall brigade. Winder was forced back.
Col. Tyler’s men speedily occupied the ground
it had left. The Federal left held a wooded
height, and from that point a deadly artillery
fire poured. Jackson ordered the Louisiana
troops under Gen. Taylor to take it. Taylor
pointed to the guns with his sword and called
to his men: “Louisianians, can you take that
battery?” With a shout and a cheer they
charged over the rough ground and up
through the woods. It was a desperate and
bloody charge, and it was successful. The
Federal guns were captured and turned upon
those who had lately manned them. Taylor
was in turn forced back with his Confeder-
ates. But I’Vinder had rallied his men again.
He poured a tremendous artillery fire into
the Federal front and left, and under it the
Union troops began to waver. Tho wavering
became a retreat. The artillery horses had
been killed and all Tyler’s guns but one had
to be left on the field.

The battle of Port Republic was ended, and
Shields had been defeated.

,Just as the Federal retreat began Fremont
appeared with his army on the opposite bank
of the river. But it was too late. The bridge
had been destroyed.

After the battle of Port Republic, J uno 9,
Jackson escaped up the valley. Ho dis-
patched tO Lee that day:

Through God‘s blessing the enemy was this day
routed with the loss of six pieces of his artillery.

T. J. JACKSON,
Major General Commanding.

By June 15 he was 011 his way to join Lee
at Richmond.

After Port Republic Fremont and Shields

 

lingered in the valley :1 while,—»'I’lnl"‘T(Si1ru

principal battles of the Shenandoah valley
campaign were Winchester (otherwise Kcrns~
town), McDowell, Cross Keys and Port Re
public.

The campaign of the Shenandoah valley Of
1862 began March 11 with Jackson 5 move-
ment from Winchester to Staunton. It end-
ed J one 0 with the battle of Port Republic.
It had paralyzed all the Union movements
before Richmond. The breach which had al-
ready been widening between Gen. McClellan
and Secretary of War Stanton was by this
campaign made irreparable. When McDow-
ell’s men were ordered to the Shenandoah,
after having5 been solemnly promised to Mc-
Clellan, the latter gave over hope of over
getting from Washington the re-cnl‘orcements
he needed, though he still continued to ask
for them. As to what the campaign directly
effected, Cooke, in his life of Jackson, says:

“In three months Jackson had marched
600 miles, fought four pitched battles, seven
minor engagements and daily skirmishes; had
defeated four armies, captured 4,000 prison-
ers, seven pieces of artillery, 10,000 stand of
arms and a very great amount of stores, in-
flicting on his adversary aknown loss of 2,000
men. with a loss on his own part compar-
atively small.”

How it was possible for him to thus make a
successful raid don n the whole length of the
Shenandoah valley and back again, with
armies on three sides of him, containing alto-
gether mole than three times as many men as
his own, is one of the mysteries of war that
has never, been solved. It was all a dash, a
sweep, a blow, and then up and away again:

Rein up your hot horses and call in your men,

The trumpet sounds “Rally to colors again."

Some saddles are empty, some comrades are
slain, ' _ ,

And some noble horses lie stark on the plain.

But war’s a chance game, boys. and weeping is
vain.

Embarrassing to a Stenogrnpher.

One of the most embarrassing things a
court stcnographer can be subjected to some
times is to he suddenly asked to read a lot of
cross questioned testimony over which there
has arisen a dispute, and the answers and
questions of which. together with the inter-
jected remarks of wrangling counsel, have
been taken down at lightning speed. Under
such circumstances one’s writing is little more
than a scroll, and to decipher and read it
quickly at a moment’s notice is by no means
easy. The most important thing in this, as
in all kinds of reporting, is to keep a cool and
collected head. I have seen some pitiable
cases of first class stenographers who were
so rattled on being asked to read what they
had written, that the request had to be with-
drawn out of charity to them.-—Globe—Dem-

A CHILD’S SKIN.

EARS AND SCALP COVERED WITH
ECZEMATOUS SCABS AND SORES
CURED BY CUTICURA.

Y llltle son. aged eight years has been allllcl-
M ed with Eczema of the scalp, and at times a
great porllon of tile body, ever since he was two
years old. It began in 111s ears and extended lo
his scalp, which became covered WlI-Il scabs and
sores. and from which a sticky lluld poured out,
causing intense itching and distress, and leaving
his hair matted and lifeless. 'l‘ndcrneath these
scabs the skin was raw, like a piece of beefsteak.
Gradually the hair came out and was destroyed,
unll‘. but a small patch was left at the back of
the head. My friends In Peabody know how my
little boy has suffered. At nigh he would scratch
his head until his pillow was covered with blood.
I used to tie his hands behind hlm, and in many
ways tried to prevent his scratching, but ll was
no use, he would scratch. I took him to the hos-
pital and to the best physicians in Peabody with-
out success. About thls time some friends, who
had been cured by the CUTIOURA REMEDIES, pre-
vailed upon me to try them. I began to use them
on the 15111 of January last. In seven months
every particle of lhe disease was removed. Not a
spot or scab remains on his scalp to tell the story
of his suffering. Hls hair has returned, and is
thick and strong, and his scalp as sweet and clean
as any child's in the world. 1 cannot say enough
to express my gratitude for this wonderful care
by llle 'CU'I‘ICURA REMEDIES, and wish all simi-

‘ larly afflicted to know that my statements is true

and without exa erallon.

REPORTING A SECRET CAUCUS.

 

“'utclllng the Shadows of the Speakers.
Making Up a Fair Report.

“i remember one occasion, more than
twenty years ago, when the representatives of
several papers were directed to learn all they
could about a secret caucus. Each man was
on his metal, but all were kept at a safe dis-
dance from the room in which the noted poli-
ticians Inet. When the meeting was called to
order the reporters were in despair, because

separated from the assembly ball by a. wide
corridor, or so situated that they could see
nothing and hear nothing. But it so happened
that along that side of the hall were a num-
ber of low windows. The heavy ground glass
prevented those who used the corridor from
seeing what was going on within, but ad-
mitted the light.

“As the seven or eight newspaper men were
sitting disconsolate, looking across to the
caucus room, the shadow of a mall appeared
on the glass of the almost continuous window
extending along the side. Some one had
mounted the chair to address the chairman of
the meeting, and the boys recognized him by
his gestures. In the midst of what appeared
to be a rather exciting speech he was pulled
down from behind, and another man a little
further to the front popped up. The new
speaker was recognized by the contour of his
head and the cut of his clothes. The reporters
scattered at once to different points of obser-
vation, and when the caucus ended they had
a pretty fair record of the persons who had
spoken. Knowing how the speakers stood on
the question before the meeting, they made
up from their shadow pantomime certain
prognostications as to what was said, on
which they interviewed every man whose
shadow they had seen on the ground glass of
the windows. ‘

“Going to one lnan a. reporter would say:
‘Baker talks too much with his hands, doesn’t
he?’ and then he would go through the ges-
tures characteristic of Mr. Baker when he
was much excited, accompanying them with
certain declarations of his own. This would.
be greeted with :1. laugh and corrections would
be made. To another man another reporter
would say that his remarks had been criti-
cised by some one who mimicked his gestures
and who gave out the impression that the old
gentleman had made a goose of himself, and
the reporter would indulge in some cxtrava»
gout gestures characteristic of the speaker.
This would be followed by an indignant de-
nial and by a hasty statement of what he did
say. Working in this way the seven men be—
fore midnight had by comparing notes and

. observations written out a pretty fair report

of what occurred inside the hall.”—Inter
Ocean “Curbstone Crayons.”

 

The Nuisances of Paris.

The boulevard is becoming more and more
disagreeable, owing to the continual increase
of processions of ragged sandwich men, who
by day carry lingo placards mounted banner
wise on poles. and by night transparent adver-
tisements in the shape of lanterns or luminous
tambourines. Hatters, cheap jewelers, music
hall keepers, showmen of all kinds and of all.
grades resort to this method of obtaining
publicity and impeding circulation. Another
nuisance is the bowling “cameiot,” who deals
in second class newspapers and broadsheets
and bowls his ware from morning until mid-
night. News, scandal and pornography share,
in almost equal proportions the attention of
these hoarse voiced and horrible creatures,
whose presence and whose cries render the
boulevards a most disagreeable promenade.

The other day a group of artists professing
an ardent love for Paris, and having at their
head the great Meissonicr, protested against
the erection of the 1,000 foot Eiffel tower, on
the ground that it would disfigure and dis-
honor Paris, the queen of cities. in the inter-
est of Paris it would be perhaps advisable to
protest against the disfigurementof the streets
of the capital by these crowds of sandwich
men and bowling hawkcrs. Liberty is doubt-
less an excellent thing, but in Paris we are
