proved saccotsfal , ho WM Boon after a ant
on o loDRlhy forced march to the right
Dg ln , with a view of effecting a crossing
on the Ohattahoochio at Sand town but
olrack Hardoo'a corps posted near D&llai ,
which llttlo old faahionod town wo
marched through Into In the afternoon ,
finding thoJohnnioshardatworkBtrongth-
onlng tholr position. Of canrio wo halt
ed ; It was nearly camping time and
Hardeo'a cotpi of the robal army eald ,
in sabatinco , that wo had marched fai
onongh ( n that direction , and thus we
had two excellent reasons for stopping ,
The following morning wo moved for
ward in the line of battle nntll the robe !
line was fully developed and then wo be
gan to dig ; a line of works waa throwi
np wblch wo held for about a week , dar
ing which time there was coneldorabli
fighting. In ono of tholr desporati
charges our regiment captured a nnmbo
of soldiers belonging to the second Ken
tncky Infantry , and as no rushed then
to the roar they asked the name of th
regiment and when told ono of them salt
"Thnndor ! They told us wo woro'.Gghtinj
hundred day men , why wo fonght yoi
follows at Donolsonl"
ftWhilo at Lagrange , Tonn. , the fall pre
vions , ono of onr boys wont Into a bic
yard to got a drink and found a ma
Bitting In the shade of the house. H
Inquired as to the regiment the soldlc
belonged to and when Infonned ho smllo
grimly and sild "I know yon ; your regl
mom garo mo this at Donelson , " holdln
up his right hand which had been sha1
terod by an onnco ball.
While occupying this line of woiks o
Dallas the enemy made
A NICl LIT AirACK
on us , rousing us from eonnd sloop i
midnight by a tremondons crash of muaki
try. Wo bad just boon relieved froi
duty on the front line and wore sleepln
the sleep of tired men when the core
mand was given "fall Inl fall Inl Loav
everything but guns and accoutrements.
Away wo roshcd through the dark wood :
the left of the regiment almost runnin
over Gon. G. M. Dodge , who wt
engaged in carrying ammunition to th
front. Reaching the earthworks wo lat
duwn and awaited orders. A
far as conld bo soon to th
right and loft a line of fire no1
raged and rolled while the ground ohoo
nnder our feet with the dreadful concui
slon of artillery and small arms. Fc
two long hours this continued , mnc
damage being Inflicted on both aldei
and then the attack was abandoned.
A crossing of the Ohattahochlo wo
finally made on the 7th ot July , Jobnato
falling back to his last lines of fortliica
lions at Atlanta. Ills course was strong ]
condemned at Richmond and on the 19t
ho was relieved and Hood placed in con
maud of the rebel army. This change (
loaders was hailed with great uatlsfai
tlon by the union forces as they had
much higher regard for Johnston's abil
ties than for these of his successor. Ha\
Ing been placed In command for the 02
press purpose of fighting , Hood took th
offensive at once , attacking Hooker , 1
onr center , on the 20th , the army of tb
Tennessee on tbe following day. H
was badly whipped by Hooker , and wj
finally driven back by M'Pherson's con
mand on the 21st , after a most doaporal
assault upon our lines , in which M'Phei
son was killed , which assault would ha\
baen entirely successful had it boon mad
twenty minutes earlier.
After this engagement wo were etc
ployed night and day in throwing c
fortifications and to guard against posjlb
surprise , faced those fortifications towarc
all points of the compass. In front <
theee lines we dug holes thrno feet doe
and two feet acroES , and covered the
with brush so that they were complete !
concealed. Much hard work was require
to accomplish this and as the weathi
was very hot the boys voted the who
business a humbug and were disposed
make light of that sort of strategy. Thi
argued ( in a rarcastlo way ) that eaoh ho
would catch a Johnny and that all v
wonld have to do would bo to go on
thrnat a bayonet through the robs thi
secured , throw Ihem over inside our ma
works , lO'flrrango the brash and for 01
other "installment. " We posted a tin
as a look-out and bo wonld bo greet
with the frequent Inquiry "any rebs
the boles ? " to which he always return
the discouraging response
"NAKY KKB. '
It is usual for troops to "fall in" and th
march , bnt in this instance wo want
enemy to mtrch and then "fall in. "
On the evening of July 2Gth ovorythl
was pnt in readiness for the abando
mont of this line , which was the oitror
left of the union army then inventing A
lanta , and at midnight wo moved o
quietly , leaving camp fires burning. I
dors were given In low tones , the litl
conversation that was hold between t
men was oonduotod in whispers and , f
the only time during the war , I saw t
wheels of the artillery mnftled wi
cloths to prevent making a noiaa as i
passed along the stony roads. At no
on tha 27th wo bad reached the oxtrat
right of the union army , f clng east I
wards Atlanta. Battery "H" first Mi
souri artillery took position on the left
our regiment and arranged to throw li
shot into tbo city , about a mile and
half distant. It was reported that o
shot was to be fired every twenty mi
ntes during she night , and the follow !
clr morning aomo of us were expressing si
prlso that this order had not been cs
clod out , when a corporal who had be
up half the night on guard duty eatd tt
It had been that three times each he
a solid ball had boon thrown Into Atla
ta by a battery of arlillery posted witt
a stone's throw of where wo were th
D. sitting , yet we had slept through t
night undisturbed by concussions whi
D.aj. conld certainly have been heard A d
aj.or . tance of fifteen miles. We had been
or the midst of cannonading , noise and ti
un
.to moil so long that wo could sleep
Sth quietly ( when we got a chance ) unt
thoie oltcumttincoi as though at hoi
with downy beda beneath in.
Then began tbo siege of Atlanta
earnest. Heavy batteries were plac
in position , the lines strongly fortlG
on both aides , and occasionally bdvanc
by the Union army until tbo city was
plain view of the besiegers , and mi
damigo done the buildings by the can
nonading. The rebels had a nnmbor ot
sixty-pound guns In position , and the
shells from these made a terrible noise
as they tore through the trees above our
heads and exploded far In the roar , The
ahatpjhootcrs of the enemy proved a
great annoyance to us , doing much
damage ; on the skirmish line a man dare
not ralao hla hand above the earthworks ,
or It wonld be riddled with balls. I hap
pened to bo looking directly at George
tforrls , of Company "B , " ono day jnat
aa ho was shot by ono of these keen-eyed
mammon ;
TUB BULLET PASSED
through his face , and as ho roao ta his
foot after receiving the injury the blood
gushed forth in five streams , ono from
the entrance of the ballono from its oxlt ,
ono from each nostril , and ono from hla
month. The doctors stid ho could not
live , but ho did. Ho wai taken to the
hospital and finally recovered , though
with the loss of on eye , and the personal
beauty which had formerly made him
ono of the noticeable men In the com
pany baa disappeared forever. Ho has
boon a model soldier , always winning
the premiums offered for the best drilled
and boat equipped soldlor In the regi
ment , and had taken great prldo tn hli
record , bnt this Injury broke hla spirit ,
and after his discharge , on account ol
disability , ho returned to our old campi
at Pnlaski , organized a squad of desperadoes <
does which preyed on the community
and was finally pursued and shot bj
commander of the Union officer thei
stationed at Pnlaskl.
While occupying this skirmish line oni
evening juat before being relieved , Lieu
tenant Tom Raush , of our company , re
marked : "I'll take one moro shot bofon
wo leave , " and turned to point hi
Spencer rifle through the little port hoi
which ho had boon using through th
day , bnt before he could pull the triggo
a rebel bullet struck him and ho fell eve

few times and then was still forever. I
was so sudden that it seemed Imposslbl
to realize that the bright young man wh
a moment before had boeu si full of llf
and vitality , had spoken his last word
on earth and could not bo helped by th
efforts wo made to relieve him.
L During the solgo it was with great dlfli

Special Corrcfipondenco of THE BEE.
April 14 At Iho con-
zoning of congrees for the short toialoa
In the winter of 1866-7 the two senators
elect , TIpton and the writer , Matquotto ,
the mombor-oloot to the then congress ,
and TalTc , the memb or-elect to the next
congress , repaired to Washlngtcn to renew -
now the application for the admission of
Nebraska into the sisterhood of slates.
To insnro that end Ik was necessary to
accuro the anpport of two-thirds of the
members of oncb of the two houses of
congress , 10 as to bo able to override the
presidents veto , which wo well know
would follow the presentation of the bill
to him , as the two principal grounds on
which ho rested his objections to the bill
at the previous cession still oils ted :
namely , that the provisions of the enab
ling act of 1864 had not boon compiled
with , and that the population of the
territory was too small either to justify
Its assumption of the obligation ofkstate <
hood , or to entitle it to bo placed on the
anrao footing wlth/tho other states.in the
enjoyment of the rights and blessings oi
the union. It was not difficult to dla
cover , however , that the real reason was ,
that ho didn't want to witness the acqul
sitlon to the senate of two more republi
can senators. If wo had been democrat :
ho would have signed the bill. Dakota
territory , with nearly a half million o
people , has repeatedly knocked at thi
doors of congress , and hns as often beet
turned away ,
SIMPLY UECAtJBE
she would send to the national leg la ] a
turo two republican senators and threi
republican luombcra. There is no lav
arbitratlvcly fixing the number of peopli
a territory must contain as a condlttot
of admittance , but Iho popular notiot
has boon , and Is , that the territory
should have a population equal to that o :
a member of congress when It asks f o :
recognition aa a state , though that is no
adhered to as a rule. Refusing admit
tnnca to Dakota Is a great political crime
Its people are punished for the exorcise
of their political right , and are doprivoc
of the enjoyment of other rights , because
cause they will not think as others do
It may bo slid the republican part ]
would take the same course under tin
same circumstances. Yory likely , but
that does not leaaen the moral Iniquity
It Is a bold public wrong no matter bj
what party it is inflicted.
It soon .became apparent tb.it almos
the only obstacle In the way of having i
two-thirds vote was the clause in thi
conetitutlon which restricted suffrage t !
the white race. A few raised the objec
tlon that It would bo unfair to place ;
small territory , small in numbers , on thi
same piano with Now York , Pennsylya
nia and Ohio , In the Bontta. Accordinj
to the most rellabla sources of informs
tlon , Nebraska had , at that time , abou
70,000 inhabitants. ,
T1IE FIIIST TIIINO TO BE DONE
was to devise a way or plan for clraum
venting the word "white" ' in the const !
tutlon. Various methods were proposed
and it bectme necessary for the delegation
tion to call on senators and members t
advise with them , and to impart Informs
tion. Among others , the writer calle
upon Charles Simmer one morning full
anticipating the objection ho would make
and -was net In the least disar
pointed. Being shown to hi
room , ho received me formall
but courteously. On stating the objoc
of my call , it was apparent that a stori
was brewing and must soon break oul
Asking for the admission of Nobrask
with the word "white" in the constltu
tion , had the same effect upon Mr. Surr
nor , that the waving of one of ex-Sent
tor Tharrnan's rci bandannas would hav
npon an excitable Tannus , and ho brok
forth : "How Is it possible you cm com
hero claiming recognition for Nebraska
with a constitution retaining one of th
barbarous features of the old pro slaver
times. Yon claim you have adopted
constitution , republican in form , and the
Nebraska will be a republican state , an
yet , though four years have passed sine
the proclamation of universal oraanclpa
tion , and after the adoption of the XII
amendment to the constitution abolish
Ing slavery , you coino hero with th
word "white" In your constitution. Th
people of Nebraska are Idiotic , all
idiotic. Instead cf being progressive
they still cling to the old prejudices bor
of slavery. I am amazed at them. "
After delivering himself thus ho
HKUMEI ) TO FIND ItELIEF
from the feelings with which ho appeare
to bo surcharged. I listened to him al
tontlvely , without attempting to say anj
thing in reply till ho hid finished ,
then sa'd. ' "Mr. Bumnor , ai for th
people of Nebraska being Idiotic , I hav
to say , that in my judgement , they wi
compare favorably with the people <
any portion oi the country ; they are c
the same class of the o who make np th
population of the states east of the Mil
sourl river to the Atlantic ocean ; the
went from those states , and have holpo
to build a now state. I regret the proi
once of the word 'white' in the constitt
tlon as much as yon do ; it wai a mlstak
to place It there ; but no ono knows batt (
than yonnolf how dillicalt It Is for a pe <
plo to bo educated up to an entirely no
departnre.to the adoption of views and tri
dltions entirely the reverse of those whlc
they were bred , and under the Influent
of which they have always lived , for th
same restriction has been found In noarl
all of the state constitutions. I cm ri
member when William Loyd Qarrlac
was chased through the streets of yet
own cily cf Boston by an infuriated mol
and his life wai saved only by the may <
and police hustling him into a ttrot
jail , whose maeslve iron doors defied tt
maddened populace ; mid all because M
Gimison bad denounced southern alavei
as & monstrous national crime , and whlc
ought to be abolished. I am in favor i
giving the franchUo to the colored mai
1 was brought to this conviction by prac
Ural experience. It fell to my lot I
have a brfgido of entirely colored tsooj
and throe brigades of white troops In rt
command at the same time for nearly
year during the late war , and It gave n
a good opportunity to test the form
as Boldtert , and I found the
to be just as good fighte
aa their white brethren ; tin
they nude the some kind of soldiers , at
1 never knew ono of them to lllnch in tl
hour of danger. The conviction w
then fastened upon my mind that tl
man who fought by my side , black though
ho was , to help tavo this nnlon , and of *
forod his life If need be , as a eacrifico to
tavo it , was woithy to vote by my side to
perpetuate the union and to secure the
just administration of the laws and the
dispensation of justice to all the pooplo.
I then vowed In my heart that if I lived
to return to Nebraska , I would advocate
the granting of suffrage to the colored
man equally with the white man , and I
hav ? kept my vow. I had nothing to
do with making the constitution ; if I had ,
I should have opposed all restriction of
suffrage on account of race or color. "
Mr. Sumner bad made a speech to mo ,
and I was bound to respond to it.
MY OBJECT WA3
to vindicate the people of the territory
from the aspersion hohad cast upon them ,
and to show htm that my views and his
coincided , and my position was ai far
advanced as his , touching the question of
equal suffrage. My little speech evi
dently had some Effect , for as soon as ho
iund mo In aocord with him on Iho mniu
uostlon , his whole manner and appear-
! nco changed at once , and ho became as
ontlo and bland as ho had baforo boon
udo and discourteous. From that time
ho became a warm friend of ndtnia-
on , if a > plan could bo devised to nullify
ho suffrage restriction , and this ho aided
n doing.
A call was then made upon Thaddctts
tovons , and from him the same objoo-
'on was encountered , though ho no-
ordcd mo n different reception from that
f Sumnor. Ho was the recognized
oador of the house , and waa ono of the
eally great men of that period , no
aid to me : "The men who made your
lonstltutlon must have forgotten that
ilavery has been sbollehed and that the
African Is not a man and brother. They
attorned after the prejudices of their
others , and the states from which they
migrated. I can't glvo a vote that will
auction the withholding the elective

I said to him , "supposing the bill foi
.ho admission of Nebraska should con-
aln a clause to the effect that the state
ihall bo admitted on condition that then
ihall bo no restriction of suffrage on ac <
: ount of color ? " Ho said in reply ,
THAT WAS THE VEUY THING
ho had been thinking about , and added ,
'wo must got up a bill In that war ; one
f wo do not admit yon , and the state
alls to c comply with the conditions , w (
will pass a law putting Nebraska bad
'nto a territory again , just so sure at
hero is a God in Israel. " I said , "all
Iglit , Mr , Stovonr , wo must takn the
lonscquencos. " There were many con
ultatlona between Wade , Sherman ,
"umnor , Edmunds , Chandler , Howard ,
tovcna and others , and the result wai
he bill which passed both houses In Julj
807 , admitting Nebraska as a itate ,
'upon the fundamental condition , that
within said state there shall bo no denial
f the elective franchise , or of any othoi
Jglit , to any person by reason of ruco 01
: olor , except Indians not taxed ; and up-
n the further fundamental condition
, hat oho legislature of said state , by r
emu public act , shall declare thi
issont of said state to the oald funds
nental conditions. "
THE HILL WAS VETOED
iy the president , as was expected ; bit
t ca ed both houses over the vote by i
ote of ayes I0 ! , nays 9 , In the oonati
February 8 , and ayoa 120 , nays 41 , in tin
benne February 9.
The bill directed the governor of thi
.onitory to convene the state legislature
he members of which were elected thi
amo time the constitution was voted fern
n special session , to take action on thi
conditions Imposed. Governor Saundoi
mmediately called the legis'aturo together
gethor at Omaha , and on the 20th o
February a bill passed , accepting am
ratifying the conditions imposed by thi
act of congress. A certified copy of thi
act was at once taken to President John
son , wno thereupon issued a proclamatloi
March 1 , declaring that the legislature o
Nobraskahad complied with the condition
mposod by the act of congress , and tha
Nebraska Is now a state of the union
The act itself directed the president to is
sue the proclamation on receiving officia
evidence that the conditions had beoi
ratified and accepted. Thus Nebrask
was admitted Into the constellation estates
states , a star of the first magnitude
Marqnctte took his soet as a member o
that congress. The new eon
_ , rets at that time convened 01
the 4th cf March , the time having beei
changed on account of the diflicaltle
with President Johnson , or , In othe :
words , to bo in session most of the tlm
so as to watch him. Mr. TIpton and th
writer were admitted to the house o
representatives on the same day. Ne

In the flush stock times when W. 0
Budd was the Idol of the stock bean
and many who are now satlefiod wit !
beer and sandwiches conld not ondur
anything but champagne , there wer
many funny Incidents recorded
Budd had a boy in his ofiic
who made a little turn In specula
tlon , and he detoimined to go on a llttl
tour of the state. Ho got n holiday am
started. At last ho reached Los Angeles
and tbero ho met a couple of card apecn
lators , who took the chances , with mor
or lees certainty , at poker. Two day
after this meeting Bndd received a tele
ram :
"W. 0. Budd , San Franolico : Pleas
send mo 8200 to pay my debts and expenses
penses back. " . "
Mr. Bndd did not answer. The yonn
gentleman evidently proceeded to tickl
the poker game again , and next da
Bndd received another telegram :
"W. 0. Bndd , San Francl co : Picas
send mo $300 to pay my debts and ei
"
penses
Still Mr. Bndd did cot reply , and nox
day came another :
"Wnymon 0. Budd , San FrancUcc
Send me $ 100. "
Bodd was getting annoyed. So wa
the clerk , apparently , fcr he telcgfaphc
again :
"Budd , San Fiancisco : Send m
§ 500. "
Mr , Bndd took the momy and wen
and telegraphed it to Los Angeles.
