so common . o The Obstinate Fight for the Ap- pomattox Crossing. LEE TURNS .ON HIS PURSUERS. The Second and Sixth Corps of the Union Army Win an Important Victory—The Confederate Retreat DelayedéDesperate Fighting on Both Sides to the Very Last. Early on the morning of the 6th of April, 1865, Gen. Meade, who was rsonaily con« ducting the Union columns immediately in the pursuit of Lee along the Danville rail- road west of Petersburg, ordered ‘the Second, Fifth and Sixth corps, under Humphreys, Griffin and Wright, to move against Amelia Court House, where Lee had halted the night of the 5th. After marching a few miles the Second corps saw the Confederates moving off to the west, evidently aiming for the cross- ing of the Appomattox at and near Farm- ville. Meade promptly changed front and sent the three corps in the same direction. The Second corps had a direct road from Amelia Court House to Deatonville, the Fifth the road passing Painesville, and the Sixth. that from Jetersville. Gen. John B. Gordon’s corps formed the Confederate rear guard, and Ewell’s corps was the last of the regular col- umn. Gordon’s men kept up a running fight with Meade’s, particularly at the crossings of streams and the passes over ridges, but the march was continuous, the Union advance moving rapidly with skirmishers and artil- MAP OF LEE’s RETREAT. lery. This pursuit of Meade’s lasted all day, ending at night at Sailor’s Creek, fourteen miles ahead, where an important action closed the heavy fighting of the campaign. The operations on the front of the line began on the morning of the 6th. Gen. Longstreet’s corps had been pushed on in advance of Lee’s army, and during the night of the 5th had reached Rice’s Station, on the South Side railroad, between Burkeville and Farmville. This brought him in front of Ord’s Army of the James at Burkeville. Fitz Lee’s cavalry was close up with Longstreet’s; Sheridan’s was in the vicinity. Ord, who believed that Lee was marching down the Dauviiie road on Burkeville, sent out a detachment of two regiments of about 500 men and his headquarters cavalry, eighty strong, under Col. Francis \Vashburn. Col. Theo. B. Read of Ord’s staff led the enterprise. The Confederates were the command of Gen. T. L. Rosser and numbered about 1,500. When Rosser saw Read’s column moving around Longstreet’s flank he started in pursuit and overtook it about midway between Rice’s Station and Farmville, some distance west of the railroad. Read had posted his infantry along the edge of an oak forest. Rosser sent a dismounted column, led by Gen. Munford, against Read’s front, and a column in saddle, led by Gen. Dearing, to make a flank attack. Gen. W'ashburn then led out the eighty cavalrymen and charged Dearing and engaged him in a hand to hand fight. Washburn and Dearing were killed within three feet of each other. The Confed- erate Col. Boston and Maj. Thompson were also killed, and every one of the Union cavalry officers fell. According to Rosser, all of the Union cavalrymen were killed, wounded or captured. Rosser now charged upon the in- fantry and drove them through the woods, killing Read in the fight. The infantry then raised the white flag. Read had failed to destroy the bridges, but his stubborn action had alarmed the Con- federates, and no forward movement had been made by Longstreet. Rosser returned to Rice’s Station and found the men of 0rd confronting Longstreet. Lee’s change of programme, by which his army was to avoid Burkeville and cross the Appomattox at _High Bridge and Farmville, drew the corps of Anderson, Ewell and Gor- don in the ,same direction. On the morning of this same day Gen. Sheridan had directed ‘ Gen. Crook, who now commanded the caval- ry division of the Army of the Potomac, to move to Deatonville, and ordered Merritt to follow with the whole cavalry corps. Crook found the Confederates passing westward through Deatdnville and attempted to seize one of their trains. He was repulsed by An- derson’s troops, and when joined by Merritt a second attempt was made. Ewell’s troops Were now coming up, and Anderson, aided by Ewell’s advance, repulsed both Crook and Merritt. BATTLE OF SAILOR’S CREEK. Anderson now came to a stand in front of the Union cavalry. His line had a general direction east and west, as the armies were marching. Crook and Merritt failed in sev- eral attempts to penetrate the Confederate line. On the east Ewell was up to Anderson and was followed closely by the Sixth corps. Ewell formed on the left of Anderson. Gor- don, who was closely pursued by Humphreys' Second corps, turned off to the right, or north, before crossing the creek. This left Anderson and Ewell to withstandothe cavalry and Wright’s Sixth corps. The Sixth corps opened the battle. Gen. J. Warren Keifer, who commanded one of Seymour’s brigades in the Sixth corps, gives the following account of the assault: “By about 5 o’clock p. m. the Confederate army was forced across Sailor’s Creek, where it took up an unusually strong position on the heights immediately on the west bank of the stream. These heights, save on their face, were mainly covered with forests. There was a level bottom, wholly on the east bank of the creek, over which the Union forces would have to pass before reaching the stream, then swollen beyond its banks by receil't rains, and which washed the foot of the height on which Gen. Ewell had rested the divisions of his ; my, ready for an attack if made, and with he hope that, under cover of the night, the hole Confederate army might escape in ,; : fety to Danville. ' “The pursuing troops were halted on the ace of the hills skirting the valley, within the age of the enemy, and lines were formed or an assault. Artillery was put in position n these hills. and a heavy fire was immedi- tely opened._ * * * The order to storm he heights was promptly given by officers . . ompanying the troops, and it was at once beyed. The infantry of the Sixth corps be- . n firing for the, first time while ascending he heights and when within only a few .vards of the enemy. assurance line save ay and an easy victory seemad about to be . hieved, by the Union forces. But before . . crestwas reached Gen. Ewell massed his ‘ . ps in hoavy column and made an impetu- ; charge upon ind‘thropgh' the ”center of I l .l—v‘“ NORWALK GAZETTE, WEDNESDAY AIPRIL 16. 1890 R. B.

This large body of the Confederate infantry became by reason of this success exposed to the now re newed firevfrom Gen. Wright’s artillery, re- stream. “The right and' left wings of the charging Union line met with better success, and each drove back all in its front, and, wholly disre- . garding the defeat of the center, persisted, in advancing, each wheeling as upon a pivot in the center of the line then held by the Con- federate masses. These masses were soon subjected to a terrible infantry fire upon both flanks, as well as by the artillery fire in front. The swollen stream forbade a Confederate advance to attack. As the gloom of the ap- proaching night settled over the field, cov- ered with dead and dying, the fire of the »~ artillery ceased, and Gen. Ewell, to-' gether with eleven of his general offi- cers and about all his gallant army, were prisoners.” The Confederate counter charge de- scribed by G e n . Keifer was made by the naval brig- ade commanded by Commodore J. Ran- dolph Tucker. This It was all cap- GEN. G. W. C. LEE. command was in reserve. ‘ tured. The general officers taken by Wright included Gens. Ewell, Kershaw, G. W. C. Lee, Barton, Du Bose and Hunton. G. W. C. Lee commanded a division of Ewell’s line. General Anderson attacked the cavalry of Crook and Merritt and was repulsed and charged upon in turn. Anderson had Bush- rod J ohnson’s and Pickett’s divisions, and his linesoon became broken and over 2,000 of his men were made prisoners. APPOMATTOX CROSSING. The Confederate corps under Gordon and Humphreys’ Second corps had gone toofar to the right, down Sailor’s Creek, to take part in the battle between Anderson and the Union cavalry and between Ewell and the Sixth corps. Humphreys’ men had moved all day Within sight of Gordon, maintaining the most of the way a “neck and neck” race. Encounters had been frequent, but so orderly was the Confederate retreat that a good battle front was kept up, and the Union at- tacks made very little impression. When, however, Gordon came to the cross- ing of Sailor’s Creek, about three miles from the Appomattox. it became necessary for him to make a stand in order to save the trains which were now left to his sole charge. . The Confederate wagons were massed around the crossing and Gordon’s men were in front of them. Humphreys’ artillery, which moved on the line of battle, soon broke the opposi- tion of the infantry and stampeded the teams. About three hundred wagons fell into Humphreys’ hands. Gordon’s men then crossed the creek and formed on some high ground commanding the bottom land. But it was now becoming dark and Humphreys’ men pushed across and drove the enemy from his last position, making captives of more than a thousand fighting men and securing thirteen battle flags and four cannon. Hum- phreys lost 311 killed and wounded, among the latter being Gen. Mott, a division com- mander. The march was kept _up all night and the troops reached Gainsville, placing the Appo- mattox between them and their pursuers. At Farmville the Confederates were rationed with provisions that had been sent up by rail. APPOMATTOX. After passing the Appomattox, which was accomplished during the night of the 6th at the two crossings, High Bridge and Farm- ville, Lee placed guards at the bridges and set out towards Appomattox Court House. On the Union side the Fifth corps, now. led by Gen. Charles Griffin, moved up the Appo- mattox to Prince Edward Court House. Mer- ritt’s cavalry also went up the river on the south side. Ord’s army and Wright’s Sixth corps moved to Farmville and found that Lee had destroyed the bridges. Crook's cav- alry division moved in advance of 0rd and W'right, and, fording the river, moved rapid- ly in pursuit. . Col. Gregg, whose brigade was leading, soon met the enemy and became heavily en- gaged. Heth’s infantry formed on his front and Fitz Lee with Rosser and Munford at- tacked him front and flank, driving back the brigade. Gregg and a number of his men were captured. Crook was now ordered out along the Lynchburg railroad. Sheridan’s men had not yet crossed the river. Hum- phreys’ corps started forward in pursuit of Gordon at daylight on the 7th, and reached High Bridge just as the enemy was giving the last stroke to the work of destruction. The railroad bridge, crossing a wide marsh I on piers sixty feet high, was on fire and a redoubt that served as a bridge head for the wagon bridge was being destroyed by explosives. The division of ‘ Gen. Barlow led the Second corps. and its energetic comman- der sent a force at double quick and drove off the Confederates at the wagon bridge. Gen. Humphreys, who was a mOst ener- getic officer and a successful commander, was on the ground, and Col. T. L. Livermore, of his staff, led a party of men to the burning railroad bridge to save it from destruction. As soon as Barlow’s men attacked the Con- federates at the wagon bridge the latter were re~enforced, and on being driven off at this point they rallied at the railroad bridge and attempted to defeat Col. Livermore’s men. A sharp skirmish ensued, the Confed- erates being underneath on the ground, while the Union men were above, putting out the fires. The structure was saved, with the ex- ception of four spans on the northern or Confederate side. Barlow’s men now dashed across the wagon bridge and drove off all opposition and hastened toward Farmville. Gen. Humphreys, with the divisions of Miles and De Trobriand. moved along the roads toward Appomattox Court House. Barlow reached Farmville while the Con- federates were still in possession, as the cav- airy of Crook and the troops of 0rd and Wright were preparing crossings in place of the burned hriges. Barlow at once attacked the enemy, which proved to be part of Gor- don’s column, and captured and burned a train of wagons. In‘this' fight Gen.'Thomas A. Smyth, commanding a brigade under Bar- low, was mortally wounded. Geu. Smyth was ”a distinguished leader and was the last general officer that fell in this army. Humphreys was pressing on in the wake of Lee, when he found his march opposed by Lee’s whole army drawn up in strong posi- tion along the roads from the river toward Appomattox. Lee’s right extended toward Farmville, where Barlow .was knowu to be and where Crook, 0rd and Wright were sup- posed to be in position to cooperate. Gen. Humphreys’ right division under Miles at- tacked Mahone’s Confederates and was re- pulsed. It was night before Barlow reached ‘theg'round. Crook had been repulsed with the loss of Gregg, and the Second corps alone confronted all of Lee‘s army. The corps lost on the 7th at High Bridge and Appomattox 571 killed, wounded and missing. Gen. Grant reached Farmville during the afternoon and Old and Wright got across to the support of Humphreys. Guano]: L. Ktunn. maininginposition on the east side of the ' I A Georgia Preacher’s Snake. Rev. Dr. C. W. Parker, a respected preacher yf Bremen, Ga., is authority for the following tale: ‘ “Dr. I. N. Chaney used to practice medi— line in Carrollton. He now keeps a hotel in Bremen. He went to ‘Carrollton the other lay in his buggy, and while there traded an old debt for a good horse, and started out for Boston in his buggy, leading his new horse. “When he was nearing the Little Talla- poosa river bridge at Kingsberry’s mill he tuddenly heard a roaring among the trees he Instantly supposed to bea storm. Looking up the hill he saw the forest in commotion and the trees falling and bending toward him, and in the midst of it a huge body which proved to be a snake. The doctor put whip to his horse and was quickly on the bridge. Feeling the buggy jerk he looked and saw the snake swallow the horse he was leading and plunge into the river just above the bridge, and just as the snake poked his head out on the other bank of the stream, his tail still up on the side of the hill, his body reached clear across the river. “The horse, having on new shoes. kicked through the stomach of the snake, and the snake stopped and the stream was dammed, and the water rose and floated the snake to a level with the bridge. The doctor jumped out of the buggy, took out a big knife, and, cutting the hole larger where the horse’s feet were sticking out of the snake’s body, the horse flounced out and mounted the bridge. The doctor secured him to his buggy and drove on, but by this time . the water had backed till the horse had to swim the low ground, but they made their escape.”—At- Ianta Constitution. The ,Game of Cooked Hat. From a scientific standpoint cocked hat is as far superior to tenp‘ins as a game of base— ball is to one-Old-cat. It calls for greater control of the ball, a surer estimate of dis— tance and a steadier nerve on the part of the player. That element of luck which is in- ‘ volved in the spotting of the pins in the ten- pin game is so far done away with as to form no important factor in the player’s success. There are only three pins and only three spots on which to place them, and the pin boys are pretty sure to spot them correctly when they have so little to do. To make a strike, the head pin must be struck by the ball at such an angle that the pin will fly off to one corner while the ball glances off to the other. A small ball must necessarily be used, and the exertion is therefore much less than is requi- site in rolling the larger balls in the tenpin game. Practice will develop the player’s skill in properly curving the small balls, and thisvvery practice cannot fail to be of benefit in the regular tenpin games. Once the player becomes proficient in cocked hat he will not care to give it up.——New York World. Borrowed for the Occasion. At Princeville, N. C., while waiting on the siding for the other train to pass, I went over to where a white man sat in a. cart to which an ox was hitched.- I made some inquiries as to how the ox worked as a substitute, and was inspecting the construction of the cart, when the man turned on me with: “Look-a—yeav, stranger, you is from the no’th, ain’t ye?” “Yes. ’7 "Then a want to ’splain a leetle furder.

If you is a sizing me up, size me k’rect, sah.”—Detroit Free Press. Eyeglasses or Spectacles. As to the choice between eyeglasses and spectacles, the patient’s own preference may be entirely wrong. In the large majority of cases, fitted by the optician, it may make no serious difference which the patient selects; yet in very many instances it is of the great- est importance—as, for example, a near sight- ed person selects too strong a glass, and by buying that glass in spectacle frames he is very apt to wear them longer than he would if he had an eyeglass, because they would certainly tire the eye, and the eyeglass, being easier to remove, w0uld be more frequently taken off and the eye rested—Dr. Norton in Medical Classics. Rapid Bridge Building. A piece of rapid work in bridge building, done on the copper bridge on the Oregon and Washington Territory railway, deserves rec- ord. There were twenty-five bents of trestle, averaging a height of twenty-five feet, the frame bents resting on a pile foundation with ten degrees curve on the bridge. On Thurs- day morning there was not a stick of timber on the ground; a train crossed the bridge on Sunday, three days afterward. The raising .I gang, composed of thirteen men and fore? man, raised the fifty-one bents on Saturday. —New OrleanscPicayune. Diplomatic Young \Vomen.

The floor plans given herewith are from L. H. Gibson’s “Fifty Convenient Houses," Thomas Y:\."‘\rowell & Co., New York. Both sitting room and parlor an in front. The dining room is placed immediatelyin the rear of the sitting room. Thus we have two rooms in front and two in the rear. This is practically a. square house. The old habit- has been to place the stairway along one side . of the parlor in the hall, which served as a passageway from the front to the rooms im: mediately in the rear. This distribution of halls is what has thrown the sitting room back of the parlor. “Porch com ”’4‘ :16 on E 1 lclinic: IED sitcom? HFILL [+le I48. ’Porcl] GROUND FLOOR. In the plan here given the change has been made so that the hall has relatively the same position that had the sitting'room in the past, though it is by no means as large. It is es- sentially a stair hall, and incidentally a pas- sage. As placed, we may enter it from the parlor, sitting room, dining room or kitchen. Its position is central. There are two doors between this stair hall and the kitchen. The central position of the stairway has other advantages than those just stated. It makes long balls on the second floor entirely unne- cessary. As will be seen by looking at the floor plan, it gives two good bedrooms in front. The dining room is immediately in the rear of the sitting room. There may be sliding doors connecting these two rooms. One door three and a half feet wide usually makes a suf- ficiently large opening for the dining room connection. There are sliding doors between the parlor and sitting room, and dining room and sitting room, as shown. The kitchen has the advantage of a certain amount of isola— tion from the rest of the house, for the reason that there are two doors between it and any other room. The pantries are arranged with reference to their most convenient use. In SECOND STORY. the kitchen pantry there are places for a re frigerator, flour bin, bread board and cup- board. The dining room pantry is a china closet, with glass doors above and closed doors below. The doors connecting the dining room pantry or passage should be hung on double spring hinges. » On the second floor there is a hall about fourteen feet long, from which we pass to two bedrooms in front, two in the rear, the bathroom and the store closet. Each room’ is independent. They may be connected one with the other as family necessities suggest. The store closet is accessible from the hall, as such. closet should be. This makes it availa- ble from any of the rooms. The bathroom is directly over the kitchen. The cost of the house is about $2,600. A Graceful Writing Table. .L‘.‘ warrino TABLE. Here is a suggestion of a lady’s writing table pure and simple. The principal feat- me of the thing is the inclosing, by means of a fan, of the stationary cabinet on the table top. This elegant bijou contrivance forms a refreshing alternative to the oft repeated curtain element now so commonly used as a recess dust excluder. The oblong panel, just above, might consist of a Bartolozzi tinted print, framed in by a broad band of silk or plush. This class of treatment is now “the rage," and makes a welcome change from the beveled glass plate so frequently re- sorted to for this purpose. Thought He Was Bidding.
