FIGHTING MAN AGAINST MAN.
The Cavalry Raids—-Wi1d Rides Under
Stuart, Stoueman, Fitz Lee, Kilpatrick,
Streight and Van Dom—With Averell
and Morgan, with Forrest and Wilson.
The numerical strength and losses of the
contestants in the great battles and raids of
the civil war, as they footed up in 1865, show
that the Confederates made the most of their
advantage of position, and at the same time
they show that it was only a question of
time throughout when the Confederacy as a
military power would be wiped out. The
south had two great centers to guard—the
northeast, between the Potomac and James
rivers, covering Richmond and the southwest,
between the Alleghanies and the Mississippi,
covering the great railroad connections of
Georgia, North and South Carolina, West
Virginia, and points on the Mississippi and
the gulf became flanks of the great strategic
lines. When Richmond and the Georgia lines
were in danger forces were drawn from the
flanks to threatened points, and when the
flanks were threatened the center was weak-
ened. In this way, during the first three years,
the south met its enemy man for man on
almost every field, although, as has been
shown, its total strength was inferior.
At the battle of Shiloh, Tennessee, the Con-
federates had about 40,000 men. Grant on
the first day had a force reported at about
45,000 “present for duty,” and was re-enforced
during the night by 20,000 under Buell. The
Confederates lost over 10,000 and Grant and
Buell a trifle over 13,000. In “Stonewall”
Jackson’s campaign in the Shenandoah val-
ley, in 1862, a flanking operation, the Confed-
crates had 15,000 men. Jackson fought
Shields, Fremont and Banks, and the forces ;
of each of these at their highest amounted to
at least 10,000 men. Fremont lost about 1,000,
Shields 1,500 and Banks 2,000. Jackson’s
total loss was a trifle under 2,000.
IiA-IDING A SUPPLY TRAIN.
During the Peninsula campaign the Con-
federate strength at its highest was about
90,000. This included Jackson’s valley army,
strengthened by commands added along the
route, and also Holmes’ North Carolina army
, and all the detachments along the lower
James. McClellan’s highest was 105,000 re-
ported “present for duty.” At the second
Bull Run, August, 1862, Lee had over 50,000
men, including Jackson. He had left troops
at Richmond that did not arrive on the field
until the battle was over. The Union forces
fighting under Pope amounted to 60,000. ,
Pope lost nearly 15,000 and Lee not quite ‘
10,000. In the next campaign, including the -
battles of South Mountain and Antietam,
Lee had his army all up, and probably his re-
enforcements more than covered his losses at
second Bull Run. He reported 40,000 as his
strength at Antietam. He had already sus-
tained some loss, and all of his forces were
not on that field. McClellan reported 87,000
as his “present for duty.” He had the longer
line and had some detachments out, and prob-
ably fought 00,000 men at Antietam. Lee
lost about 14,003 in the campaign and Mc-
Clellan 15,000.
In, Bragg’s invasion of Kentucky in 1862,
the Confederates had the greater part of
Beauregard’s old Army of Mississippi, Kirby
Smith’s Army of Tennessee, and a force
from West Virginia led by Humphrey Mar-
shall, a total of between 60,000 and 70,000
men. Buell opposed him in the field with
about 00,000, leaving troops to defend Nash—
ville, Louisville and Cincinnati. The forces
of each side engaged in the battle of Perry-
ville amounted to 15,000. Rosecrans, who
succeeded Buell, met Bragg at Stone River,
near Murfreesboro, in December, with a
‘ army, in southern Tennessee, to cut the rail-
forco officially reported at 43,000. Bragg re-
ported 37,000. The Union loss was 13,000,
and the Confederate 10,000. \Vhen Lee
fought the battle of Fredericksburg, Decem—
ber, 1863, he had about 60,000 lnen at hand.
Burnside had “present for duty” over 115,-
000. After Fredericksburg, Longstreet’s
corps was sent below Richmond, and at
Chancellorsville Lee had about 00,000 and
Hooker had 130,000 “present for duty.” At
Fredericksburg the Union loss was 15,000 and
the Confederate 5,000. At Chancellorsvillei
the Union loss was 17,000 and the Confeder— “
ate 12,000.
At the opening of the Gettysburg campaign
the Army of the Potomac numbered nearly
100,000 men, and probably there were between
00,000 and 05,000 on the field of Gettysburg.
Lee’s army numbered something less than
80,000, and his force available on the battle-
field was about 70,000. The Union loss was
23,000, the Confederate 20,000. At the close
of the siege of Vicksburg, Grant had 75,000
men, and the Confederates under Pemberton
were about 40,000. The losses were about
0,000 on each side. At Chickamauga the
Union army numbered 57,000 and the Con-
federate about 70,000. The preponderance of
the Confederates was due to the transfer of
12,000 men under Longstreet from Virginia.
The Union loss was 16,000, the Confederate
nearly 18,000.
In the Chattanooga campaign, Nov. 23—27,
1863, Gen. Grant had 60,000 men and Bragg
about 30,000 Confederates. Bragg detached
20,000 against Burnside at Knoxville on the
eve of the battle. The Union loss was about
6,000, the Confederate about 7,000.
In the campaign against Richmond in 1864,
the army with Grant numbered 118,000, and
the Confederates, under Lee, about 60,000.
The Union loss in what are called the Wilder-
ness battles, including the Wilderness, Spott-
sylvania and Cold Harbor, was about 55,000.
The Confederate loss has not been fully re
ported. In the Atlanta campaign Sherman
had 112,000 men at the highest, and the Con—
federates numbered 75,000. The Union loss
reported was nearly 32,000, and the Confed-
erate 35,000. At Nashville, in-1804, the Union
force available under Thomas was about 43,-,
000, and the Confederates under Hood nume
bered between 35,000 and 40,000. The losses ~
of the campaign, including those at Franklin,
numbered about 10,000. a side. .In Sheridan’s
campaign in the Shenandoah Valley, 1864,
the Union' force available on the field was
about 43,000, and the Confederate 20,000 at
the highest. Sheridan’s losses at Winchester,
NORWALK GAZETTE, WEDNESDAY MAY 7, 1890
Fisher’s Hill and Cedar Creek amounted to
about 11,000. The Confederate loss, accord-
ing to the commander, Gen. Early. was about
7,000.
At the siege of Petersburg, June to Decem-
ber, 1864, the Union army varied from 60,000
to 110,000, and the Confederate from 35,000
to 70,000. Lee strengthened his forces‘by the
North Carolina troops, and also sent troops
under Gen. Early to the Shenandoah Valley.
. Gen. Grant sent troops from his army to the
valley. The Union loss in the siege for those
months was nearly 55,000. The.Confederate
loss was not reported.
In the final campaign from Petersburg to
Appomattox the Union armies, including
those from Sheridan’s Shenandoah army,
numbered 120,000 men. Lee had about 55,000.
The Union loss amounted to about 10,000.
Lee lost heavily in prisoners during the march
to Appomattox, and surrendered about 28,000
men. There were 67,058 Union soldiers killed
on the field during the war and 318,187
wounded. Of the wounded 43,012 died of
their wounds. The Confederate losses have
not been fully computed, but a fair estimate
shows about 04,000 killed and died of wounds.
According to the ratio of wounded in the
bills-.5 it‘s: wounded '.-"-.‘.".‘— era-rhea“, would be
about 275,000, or about the same as the Union
wounded.
FAMOUS RAIDS OF THE WAR.
The first raid of note was Stuart’s ride
around McClellan’s army on the Peninsula,
June 13—15, 1802. In October, 1862, while the
Army of the Potomac was on the upper Poto-
mac Stuart with 1,800 cavalry and a horse
battery crossed the river above the army and
penetrated into Pennsylvaniaasfaras Gettys-
burg, recrossing the Potomac between the
army and Washington. But little damage
was done. During the Chancellorsville cam-
paign Gen. Hooker sent his cavalry under
Stoneman to cut the Confederate lines be-
tween Lee’s army and Richmond. Stoneman
had 3,500 men, and passed around the army,
destroying several miles of the railroads, cut-
ting the James River canal and burning
numerous bridges on the principal streams.
One of the most exciting expeditions of the
war was the joint raids of Forrest and Van
Dorn against Grant’s communications in
northern Mississippi and western Tennessee
in the fall of 1802.
During the battle of Stole River, Tenn,
December, 1802, Gen. Joseph Wheeler, made
an important raid on the Union communica-
tions in rear Of Rosecrans’ army. Wheeler
had 3,000 men and destroyed property amount-
ing ten million dollars. The most daring
raid of the west was Morgan’s expedition into
Indiana and Ohio. Morgan led a Confederate
, cavalry brigade and became celebrated by
' many small affairs near the scene of army
operations. During Bragg’s invasion of Ken-
tucky he had ridden to the suburbs of Cin-
cinnati. On July 2 he started with about
2,500 cavalry and four guns, and crossed the
Cumberland at Burkesville. He swept-through
southern Indiana and across Ohio, to its
northeastern border, where he was captured
July 26.
While the Army of the Potomac, under
Meade, was lying on the Rapidan, February,
1801, Gen. Kilpatrick, with 4,000 cavalry and
a battery, set out
from the lines,
passed around the
flank of Lee and
reached the fortifi— \
cations at Rich- ,
mond. He destroy- /
ed the railroads be- ,. ,
tween Lee’s army " ,. .‘ \‘x... " '
and Richmond, but \ ,
was soon opposed
by forces that com-
pelled him to retire
do wn thePeninsula.
From May 8 to 24,
1804, during the ad— . \
vance of Grant to- ;
wards Richmond, ‘. 1.
Sheridan, with -
about 10,000 men, ,
passed to the rear
of Lee and pressed
on towards Rich-
mond, destroying
railroads and sup-
plies. On the 11th he encountered Stuart,
and that noted leader fell in action. Sheri-
dan reached the fortifications at Richmond
and withdrew down the James. On the 7th
of June, while Grant’s army was in front of
Richmond, Sheridan started with his whole
force on a raid against the railroads from
Richmond to Gordonsville and Lynchburg.
He met the Confederate cavalry, under Gen.
Wade Hampton, at Trevilian Station, on the
Virginia Central railroad, and fought J 11110
11 and 12, meeting with a repulse that ended
the expedition.
A bold but disastrous raid in the west was
that led by Col. A. D. .Streight. In April,
1803, Streight, with 1,700 cavalry, was sent
by Gen. Rosecrans to the rear of Bragg’s

roads in Georgia. Streight and 1,300 men
were captured near the Georgia line. A more
successful raid sent out by Rosecrans was one
by Col. S. P. Carter, with three regiments of
cavalry, from middle Tennessee to Virginia,
December, 1862. Carter destroyed the track
and bridges of the Virginia and East Tennes-
see railroad north of Knoxville. In the last
year of the war this region of southwest Vir~
ginia was important to the Confederates on
account of its salt works. In December, 1864,
Gen. Stoneman, with 4,000 cavalry, entered
southwest Virginia from East Tennessee and
raided the numerous salt works and destroyed
the tracks. In February, 1805, Stoneman re-
peated his raid into Virginia, destroying the
railroad nearly to Lynchburg, and then pass-
ing into North Carolina, where his command
was at the time of the surrender of Lee and
Johnston. Among the Union raids from
W'est Virginia against the Confederate re-
gion of southwest Virginia was that by Gen.
1V. IV. Averell, December, 1863. Averell had
4,000 cavalry and cut the Tennessee road
south of Lynchburg, destroying large quan-
tities of Confederate stores.
Gen. James H. lVilson made two success-
ful cavalry raids. June 22 to 30th, 1864, be
operated within the enemy’s lines close to
Lee’s army at Petersburg, with a force of
5,500 men. He marched 300 miles, destroyed
_ . sixty miles of rail-
1:22., height a vigi-
lant force of in-
fantry and cavalry
almost every day
and returned with
a loss of 240 killed
- and wounded. In
March and April,
1865, Wilson had a
. mounted force of
about 13,000 men,
and started from
the Tennessee river,
in Alabama, to
sweep the Confed-
erates out Of Ala—
heme and Georgia.
He was opposed by

A Grecian Romance.
A Greek merchant of Alexandria, in
Egypt, who made a great deal of money, un-
able to return personally to his country, but
intent upon choosing a Grecian maiden for
his wife, writes to his correspondent in CO-
rinth, at the bottom of his usual business let-
ter: “Finally, I request you to remit me, by
returning steamer, a young lady who might
feel inclined to be my wife. She need not be
in possession of any money, with which I am
sufficiently blessed; but a good reputation,
of the age of 2-1 or 25, a respectable family,
good looks, health and temper and middle
sized figure. If the lady will bring the in-
closed note with your kindly acceptance, you
may feel assured that I will honor the same
and make the bearer my wife.”
Although somewhat astonished at this sin-
gular order of his Alexandria correspondent,
the merchant at Corinth, as a good business
man, thought best to fill it like any other re-
ceived from so reliable a customer and to
send the merchandise demanded at short no-
tice. Having found a. lady possessing the re-
quired qualities and willing to transmit,
with the accepted check of her unknown
countryman, her hand and heart, the Co-
rinthian took her aboard the next steamer
going to the country of the Pharaohs. At
the same time be notified his friend by tele-
graph of the precious shipment.
As soon as the boat anchored in the bar-
bor of Alexandria the matrimonious Greek
boarded it, to hear himself called by name
and see a pretty young damsel stepping up to
him, saying: “I have a check signed by you
and hope you will duly honor it.” “Never
yet a note Of mine has gone to protest,” re-
plied the blushing groom, “and I shall not
permit this to happen to the one you hold. I
shall be happy if, in compensation, you will
honor me with your hand.”
A fortnight later the note was redeemed
and the payer a happy husband.—Akrokor—
inthos. ’
Three Good Deeds.
Franklin Murphy brought sympathetic
tears to the eyes of his hearers at the dinner
of the Leather Manufacturers’ association by
relating a story of benevolence. A friend of
his, he said, was walking down to business
one morning when he saw a young woman
with a baby in her arms sitting on a church
step and weeping. The man, whom Mr.
Murphy called J ones, was touched by her ap—
parent distress and asked her what was the
cause of it.
“I walked into town,” she replied, “to have
my baby baptized, and now it will cost $3 to
have the service performed. I haven’t the
money and I don’t know what to do.”
“Well, that’s a small matter,” said Jones.
“I haven’t $3 in change, but here’s a ten
dollar bill. Take it and I will wait here for
the change.” .
The woman returned in a short time and
handed Jones $7. He patted the child’s head
and went down town, rejoicing in his own
goodness. He felt good all day and his conn—
tenance shone with an unsual brightness.
His associates all noticed the change, and
finally one of them asked him the cause of it.
“I am happier than usual today,” said
Jones, “and the reason of it is that I did
three good things on my way down town
this morning.” He related the occurrence
and wound up by saying:
“So I performed a deed of charity, started
a little child on its way to Paradise, and—got
seven good dollars for a counterfeit ten dol-
,lar bill.”—Newark Journal.
A Monkey’s Clever Theft.
At Khartoum I saw a man who was ex-
hibiting three large apes, who performed
several tricks at his command. I entered into
conversation with him, and he told me that
his male ape was the most dexterous thief
imaginable, and stole every day asufiicient
amount of food for his subsistence.
In proof of this he begged me to watch the
animal for a few minutes. I did so, and pres-
ently the keeper led him to a spot where a
date seller was sitting on the ground with his
basket beside him. Here his master put him
through his evolutions, and although I could
perceive that the monkey had an eye to the
fruit, yet so completely did he disguise his in-
tentions that no careless observer would have
noticed it. ,
He did not at first care about approaching
the basket, but gradually brought himself
nearer and nearer, until at last he got close
to the owner. '
In the midst of one of his feats, he suddenly
started up from the ground, on which he was
stretched, and, uttering a cry, as if in pain or
rage, fixed his eyes full on the face of the
date seller; then, without moving the rest of
his body, he stole as many dates as he could
hold in one of his “hind hands.”
The date seller, thus stared out of counte-
nance, and having his attention diverted by
this extraordinary movement, knew nothing
about the theft until a bystander told him of
it. Then he joined heartily in the laugh
raised against him.—Mansfield Parkyns.
John Chinaman’s Diet.
It’s all bosh, this talk of Chinamen living
on a bit of rice or something of that sort.
It is true that the Chinese are frugal and that
they do not throw money away. But it is
not true, however, that they starve them-
selves. I have had a good deal to do with
them, and I am free to say that they are bet-
ter customers than a good many of their
critics. Chinamen like good food as well as
other people, and if they can afford to buy it
they have it. They are so constituted that
they do not require as much of certain kinds
of food as do Americans, but do not for a mo-
ment imagine that they do not know what
good food is or that they cannot enjoy it as
much as other men. “'hat is more, when
John buys he buys the best article in the
market and pays the best price. He has his
own daiuties, which he gets at the Chinese
groceries, but he is also partial to some of the
‘ goods sold in American stores.
I am of the opinion that the Chinese, as a
rule, have better food, and more of it, than
most of our ordinary laborers, for most
Chinamen have money, and most of them
spend it more freely than the general public
believe—Interview in New York Mail and
Express.
“’hen Jarvies Are Tricky.
It is odd to note how extensively some men
get known among London cab'ldrivers. There
is one individual living not far from the Duke
of York’s column detested by the whole body
of licensees. He is constantly using their
‘ vehicles, and has a trick of keeping them
waiting unreasonable periods Without paying
for their time. It is useless to summons him,
for in a matter of cross swearing his word is
as good as the driver’s, at least.
One of the cabmen I talked with. com-
plained of being cheated by this man, and
chuckled over his revenge. He was hailed by
this cabman’s enemy in a. lonely place when
the rain was falling very heavily, and ac-
cordingly stopped; but just as he raised the
window he recognized him, and dropped it
I again. “I’ll see you drowned first, you beg-
gar,” said he, and drove on, leaving his enemy
standing in a pool of water.—-—Murray’s. '
