Just at aumct Gon. Kokon'a division ,
the advance of Buell'a rmy , which had
been on a forced march for FHtsburg
Landing , arrived on the opposite side of
the river and was rapidly ferried over by
steamboats and formed in line of battle
In front of our scml-clrclo of artillery ,
Wo wcro very pjlad of their arrival and
to hear that Low Wallace's division of
five thonrnnd freah troops had reached the
baitlo field af tor a day'a time cououtnod'in
marching Hvo miles to roach a position
which \Vallaco had received or dm at 8
o'clock a. m. to occupy. Aa wo laid In
line that night , completely soaked with
the heavy rain which fell ( a win always
scorned to follow a battle ) , wo could heat
the steady tramp , tramp , of Biioll'a men
as they mar.hod paat us and were pushed
otit to the front. Wo had hoard of the
death of Gen. Sidney John-ton , the
rebel comminder , and that ho had been
succeeded by Beaurcgard , who had sworn
to "water his horse In the Tonnesioc
river at iho Landing that night , or In
hell , " and comforted each other with the
remark that he had failed in the first parl
of hla proposition , which was a matter ol
considerable importance to ua.
By aunrloo of the 7th the battle wae
renewed ,
BUELlAs COMMAND
and Low Wallace's division of Grant's
army occupying the front line and
assaulting the confederates , the regl-
menta engaged on the Cth being hold in
reserve and following up aa the rebels
were driven b clc at ovary point. By
four o'clock in the afternoon wo hid
regained nil the ground lost on the pre
vious day , the enemy was in full retreat
for Corinth , Mississippi , ionic 25 mile3
distant , and wo returned to our , old
camp.
A visit to the battlo-Ctld the next day
disclosed a horrible night. In places
dead men lay eo thick that a poraou
could walk over two acrca of ground and
neb step oil the bodies. Details of sul-
dlera were scattered through the wcofo
gathering the dead together , and in one
inatanca I saw 2'SO bodies burled In
cue grave. Death had como In all Im
aginable shape. , in ono caeo eix of our
men huvlug boon killed by a canon ball
which paaacd through the coutcr of a
lid oak tree eighteen inches in diame
ter , behind which they had taken shelter
In a line. The man nearest the tree
hid his head cut off entirely , the oecond
wasatrucka trifle lower , the third still
lower _ down , and ao on a ) the ball lost Its
Fared after pa ing .through the tree. One
of our company took from the dead body
of a fine looking , gray haired confederate
\ beautifully wiittun letter , dated at
Memphis a low days previous and evi
dently from his daughter , in which aho
deplored in the moat touching and tender
manner his abasnce.bat thankodGoil that
a few daja mnro would end hla term of
enlistment and then he would return
liomo to leave hla family no more ,
During the battle of Sunday the wooda
were fired and wo regained our outer
camps. Monday found at our point a
iio ! of corn , containing several hundred
onshela , with the husks on. Many
wounded coldlera crawled to this pile ot
corn , seeking more comfortable positions ,
and when the fire swept through the
Woods and over this pile of corn they could
not get away and were burned to death.
At another place Monday afternoon I
: ound a bright young boy ( confederate )
ylng badly wounded on a cot In a tent ,
b'acing him , on another cot alongside hla
own , sat
A HEAD UEBEL
with wlde-ttarlng eyea , and underneath
: ho cit occupied by the boy wai the body
of a Union aoldier. By dropping hlsleft
land the boy could touch this body , and
by moving hla right hand a trlflo ho could
touch the other. Ho aaid : "I waa
badly wounded yesterday , but managed
to get into this abandoned tent and
climbed up on this cot. Soon after this
man on tha other cot crawled In , and just
bcfoio dark this soldier ljing under my
cot. They were both hurt worio than I
ivae , but wo talked to each other as much
aa wo could for encouragement. Then
along in the night this mm on the cat
talked very low and woik , and after a
while said ho know ho was going to die
and bid uagood-byo. I didn't hear any
thing after that from the man lying
under my cot , and It waa awful etlll from
that till morning. When daylight catno
I found that they wcra both dead , and I
have laid hero all day hoping acme ono
would come and help me. " I aaw that
ho wai carried back to a hospital , but
never heard whether ho recovered or
not.
not.April 29th , 1862 , wo began onr ad-
vanva on Corinth , the department commander -
mandor , Gon. Ballcck taking personal
command of the union forces. It was
generally understood that Gon. Grant
was under a cloud on account of the aur
ptijo at Shiloh which came so near prov
ing a defeat to us , and it waa a common
thing to see Grant tiding about attended
by a single orderly and receiving bat lit
tle attention from other general oflicors.
Certain it waa that the men in the ranks
always had confidence la him and his
pla'n ' , uiutsuming manners made.him a
great favorite with the volnntoeta , who
had no love for the regular army "stylo"
which was rendered especially disUsteful
to them by Hallock. now differently
there two men were he'd in public ostl-
nw'ion at the close of the war. Ualleck ,
the domineering , pompous martinet held
on to an ornamental position ' "by the
skin of his teeth , " achieving nothing ;
Grant , the modest , nnatsumlug fiddler ,
snubbed and disgraced attar Dbnolson
and Shiloh by a man who was not worthy
of tiolng hla shoes gained victory aftoc
victory on bloody luttlo fields and be
came the rnojt famous nun of his time. An
I wtito to-night ho la lying at death's dooi
with a maluly whose ravages cannot be
stayed , bravely facing man's lait enemy
with the quiet courage so characteristic of
him during the dark days of hla country's
history. To-day , noitb , south , east and
wcsv join In hearty expresaions of love
and sympathy for the great captain whoso
experiences In later years have crystal *
( zed into warm affection the feeling of admiration -
miration and respect his eoldiotly qual
ities evoked. As wo como to learn bol
ter the toil history of the w r we see
more and more in the character of Gen.
Grunt to ottoem and admlroand hit came

ever as the personlCca' ion of modesty
combined with the highest type of patri
otism and great military skill.
THK ADVANCE ON COISIXTU
waa very clew indeed , as Halleck covered
the earth with fortifications , the army
gaining less than a milo a day at times.
Wo occupied jntt thirty days In this
movement , expecting dally an engigo <
mont with Boaurcgard's army which wo
understood was concentrated at Corinth
and numbered GOQOO. In those days
Uoanrcgurd was a famous man , having
boon chief In command at Bull Hun
wboro our nrmy turned and ran , when ,
had they hold on half mi hour longer , the
confederates would have done the run
ning and onr forces could hnvo figured in
history as the bravo pursuots Instead of
the panic-stricken pursued. Wo w ro , tea
a considerable degree , afraid of Beauro
grd in the slego of Corinth , his procla
mation about watering hla horse In the
Tennessee having a llavor of the wild ,
rocklecs French warrior about It which
led us to believe that ho would attempt
any doaoorato achievement. But he
proved lo bo a very mild wairior indeed
and when Halleck throw up a heavy line
of works Immediately In front of Corinth ,
3eatiregar4 improved hla splendid rail
road facilities to skip out , after a grant
destruction of stores of great
value to the confederacy , nnd on
the mnining of Fnday , May
30th , 1882 wo marched into Cornith , It
having been evacuated during the night.
The summer following we spent at
Corinth with the exception of n few
weeks when wo were at llionzl , Missis
sippi , under command of Gon. Gordan
Granger , to whom wo took a dlallko be-
eanso wo were pat through brigade drill
for two hours dally , before breakfast.
Early In September the regiment returns
to Corinth , and b comoa a part cf the
atcond division of the sixteenth corps ,
Gen. Dick Oyleaby , now governor ol
Illinois , being division commander. Here
I was promoted to the rank of olghtl :
corporal. I would have boon made nintb
I suppose , but there waa no such position
a "high private" ranking next to eighth
corporal. It wasn't much of a promotion
and it waa considered tbo correct thing
to sneer at corporals by a certainclais ol
soldiers , but I was very glad to receive
oven this small advanca in military dls >
tluclion , as I know that other promo
tions would follow if I lived.
TUB BATTLE OF COUINXII ,
was fought October 3 and 4 , 1872 , our
position being aaaailed by Price Biid Van
D ra with as bravo an army aa over
shouldered musket. Oar division moved
ait two miles on the morning of the 3d ,
the presence of the rebel force in the
vlclnily being known , and took position
In A lluo of works thrown up by the on
orny when wo were advancing on Corlntb.
The rebels formed their lines under shel
ter of the timber and in front of the
second brigade of our division , which was
on the left of and somewhat detached
from cur brigade ( the tlrst ) occupying a
line of works at right angles t'j our. . In
their front the timber had been c'oarod
for a considerable distance and the approach
preach was somewhat obstructed by the
fallen trees. Soon the enemy came in
plain view , moving across this epscs , six
lines of battle deep , with ffoga llylns ,
drums beating and fifes playing. It was a
magnificent eight , of which our brigade
had unobstructed viow. Steadily the
lines moved forward without firing a shot
until the advance Is within three him-
Irid yards of the second b igido , when
It Is met with a tcrriole volley of
muskelry. The first line healtatea a mo
ment , the second cornea up , then the
third , and thonwltha yell the entire
command raahcs forward on double
quick , the second biip.ado ia driven from
us position , onr Hank is turned , and wo
are falling back to form a now line.
Wo take position on tha east side of
an old field , about 200 yards across ,
lying flat on our facoa. AH ia quiet in
our front. Details aremado , to lush off
and till the cautecna of the various com
panies. The aun beata down with terrl-
lla fcrjo , A battery dashes up and takes
position on our left. Just in front of us
Is an old log hut , which la evidently oc
cupied , and afterwards there ia a legend
in camp to the efleet that in the collar of
that old cabin is a poor woman who ,
done , in the midst ol the wild storm of
battle which a little later ragea and
aurges about that humble homo , passes
through that dreadful physical ordeal
which became a part of womanhood's
curao when the first man and woman
wore drivrn from the garden of Eden.
Aa wo wait , the silence grows opproeslve.
Little birds twitter In the trees about us
and mark the only break In the terrible
stillness , save the occasional low wbn-
pera of the soldiers as they lie qultt ,
with pale , determined faces , grasping
their weapons aad oppressed with the
conviction that in all prrbability they
will never again coo the sun rise.

the shelter of the foroat on the weat aide

opens fire and the rebel tklrmlehora , hav
ing disclosed our position , halt and thrco
minutes later a line of battle marches out
cf the woods , followed by a second , that
by a third and that by a fourth. The field
it crossed at a rush and the air Is filled
with leaden ball. Wo Ho still until the
enemy is witbia fifty yards of us nnd then
the command ia given , the long line of
blno coata springs up and pours a terrible
tire into the confederate forces. The
battery on our left does tpleudld work ,
mnakota are loaded and fucd so rapidly
that the barrels become heated and the
advance cf tbo enemy Is cho-kod. Tbo
ammunition of our togiment la exhausted

But the assault was tco heavy and onr

OUR GRAIN PRODUCTS ,
K 'Facts About Cereal Crops
and Their Sliiimieiit , Gathered
l > y a Ceo lloportcr.
For more than five monlhs now there
has been a steady and rtpiil Inflas of
Nebraska's cereals into and through
Omaha , the grain dhtributicg centre of
the state. The harvest of 188-1 , a rich
and plentiful ono , la now nearly mar
keted.
A representative of the Bir. : called
upon Illmobaugh & Morrlam ,
cf the Union elevator , and from a mem
ber of the firm gleaned sjmo interesting
facts relative to tnu influx of the "golden
grain. "
The bnlk of the cereal products which
pasa into and 4 through this elfy , is of
cnurao , corn , U3 a grower of which No-
braika atundn fifth in the list of slates.
The months daring which the shipments
frrm the Interior aasnmo any conslder-
ab'o prnpcrtlous are December , January ,
February and March. And ytt , ic must
bo understood the corn and wheat ia
coming in though in small quantities at
some perlccla , thu j ear around. Nearly
all of this passes directly through
Omaba.
As f r the difl'eronco In the grain pro
ducing sections of the ttito it may bo said
that the southern tier of counties aru the
best , though a considerable portion
comes from the conlril and southern
portions , Very little of the corn raised
near Omaha ( and tburo is a great deal of
it among the products of Douglas and
tbo adjoinirg counties ) , is shipped be
yond Omaha. Most of it ii brought to
town in wagons and dispoacd cf tj local
feed markets , distilleries , stabler , etc.
The facilities Of the railrradr , both the
B. & M. and U. P. , have been taxul to
their utmost to provide CUM for the
transportation of the grain. Abont
three-quarters of the corn is
shipped away , the residue being mod for
the local market. Sorao considerable
wheat Is also ( hipped cast , though the
bulk Is used for homo consumption.
Nearly all of Nebiaska'o grain Is
shipped direct to fhe seaboard , though a
billing amount ia "cached" on the way.
Most of it ia sent to Now'York and Bil-
timoro , and from these markets It finds
its way to Liverpool nnd tbo continental
oortg. A consldorab'o amount of No-
bratk * grain also is shipped to St Lours ,
a grain centre of no small ImpoiUnc ? .
Chicago receives very lit ! la , nay the local
elevator men , on account of the rnlcs of
rigid Inspection which there prevail.
The system of elevator * throughout the
state , an item of no small importance In
the grain economy cf this onmrnweaUh ,
ia very good. The Union Pacific road ,
which handles the bulk of tbo grain t radio
has a cmvooient system , though the ele
vators are not any too plentiful. That
road Is erecting from twelve to twenty
every yoir , Mott of the grain , as soon ai
msr'iotablo , la loided directly Into these
elevatore , and as fast aa cars can ba ob
tained , Is shipped away. The largo
propcrtlon of the atato grain
Is stnt over the Union Pacific
system throegh Omaha , though the B.
& M , handles' a largo elico of tbo trade ,
making all Its shipments through Plat's- '
mouth direct to Chicago.
The grain crop of last year wai very
fair , though it is believed that the harvest
of 1885 will bo a richer one. Estimates
differ on tbo point of the approximate
value of last year's harveit , however. For
instance , lion. R. W. Fuiims ostlmatii
the corn crop of 1884 at lO'J.OCO , .
000 busheli , while other calculations
place it low aa 11)7,000,000 )
It U csUmstcd , judging from the present
outlook , tint the corn cropof ) 188. > will ba
in excess of 170,000.000 busholf.'whllo It it
thought that the whcnt crop will fall eland
and ba considerably lees thmi for last
year.
year.Tho prices received for corn by the
farmers have been from 21 ! to 30 cents
while wheat hta brought troin15 to 5u
cents
" > Vhat the papers ought to advise the
farmers to do next year1 said Mr.
Morrlam , " Is to plant plenty
of wheat. I believe that
Nebraska affords developable rcaoutc-a
ia that direction which ought not to bo
overlooked. Advices say ihiv * the farm
ers intend to give the preference to c. rn
during the next few harvesU. Here ,
then , is a chance for an enterprising class
of men to "make a stake. " The less
competition there i ; , of course , the more
the profit. It is to the development ol
the wheat production of the state that
Nebraska farmers of the koeu and foresighted -
sighted style , ought to direct their atten
tion. "

rilE GRAVING FOU STI iSULANTS
An Almost , if Not Absolutely , Univer-
nnl Human Appetite.
Katinual Review.
The deeira or craving fcr stimulants in
the most general sense of the word for
drugs or sedative fgents is an alracst , if
not absolutely , universal human appetite ;
so general , so early developed , that wa
might almtist call It : va Instinct. Alco
hol , of course , Is the most popular , under
ordinary circumstances the most seduc
tive , and by far the most widely diffused
of a'l ' stimulant substances. From the
EuphratoB to the Straits of Dover the
vine has bean from the earliest ages HCC-
diid only to corn in popular estlrca'ion ' ;
\vina , next lo bread , thn most pr'zcd
end most universal article of hit
man food. The connection between
Cores and Bacchus ia found in almost
a\ery language as iu the social life of
every nation from the warlido Asuyrlan
monarchy , the ctiblo hiorocraUc despot
iam of Egypt , to the modern French re
public and Gf rman Einoire. Corn itself
lias furnished stimulants second in popu
larliy to wine alone ; the spirit which de
lighted the fiercer , btarncr races of north
ern Eurcpa Swede , Nrrwoglan and
Dane , St. Olaf and Harold Hardroda , as
Lhtir descendant of to-day ; and the ale
of our own Saxon and Scandinavian an
ceatry , which neither spirit , cider cor
Spanish wlno has supereudod among our
selves. The vine , again , scums to h vo
been native to America , but the civilized
jr soml'clvi i/.ed races of the southern
uid central part of the western continent
had ether more popular and moro pecu
liar stimulants , uleo for tbo most part al-
3jhollo. The palm , again , has furnlehed
to African and Asiatic tribes a spirit
uoi IOJB potent or less noxious , not
loss pppuhr and probably not
loss primitive , than whisky or
bpor. But where alcohol has l)2on

ivhero so powerful an excitant produced
fll'ects too palpably alarming to bo t > ! er
