On the 14th of April Sherman's army captures another state capital Raleigh N. 0. , nnd wo match through the city , passing the capltol building , on the stcpa of which Sherman mid hia staff are posted ; the streets are lined with citl * zonn whoso conduct Indicate that there it not regret on their part that tho.place la In the hands of the "enemy , " for the ordinance of secession had not baon a popular measure with the people of "The "Old North Slate , " and during the en tire war the mountains had secreted thousands of loyalists who conld not be forced into waging war upon the govern ment of their fathers. As ire marched In column of companies , keeping stop to the mualo of the national alra , the sight of the grand old Ihg brought toira to their eyes , and chcera and waving of handkerchiefs gave cxpratston to their greater lovofor ourcommon country. Twelve miles west of Ralolgh the com mand halt ] . It is known to ns that negotiations nro pending for the sur render of Johnston's army , the propoei- ions bolng of the moat genorona haractor , baicil upon Intimations given hcrman by President Lincoln a few weeks previous. Hoanwhllo the grand- it man this country haa over produced as boon foully murdered , and a horrified nd outraged nation cry out against ttio ibcral terms Sherman has offered | dongh they had originated with the great nd tender heart that is now tilled forever , and , having boon ont to Washington for endorsement , ro returned by Mr. Stnnton disapproved , ml ho sends General Grant clown to ro- eivo the surrender of Johnson's army on erma moro In keeping with public santl- ment. Wo are visited In our camps by General Grant but ho gives no intimation o General Sherman of his real mission , llowlng the latter the full honor of re- oivlng the surrender of the bravo army 10 had first met in the ndvancs on At- anta another evidence of the modesty f General Grant and of his high sense of loner and fairness. THE Vi'AU ENDED. April 29 , 18G5 , ono year from the day wo marched out of our camps at Pulaski , i'cnn , , on the Atlanta campaign , wo .tatted . on onr last march for Washing , .on , via Richmond , knowing that onr days of battle are over , as wo have joat witnessed the surrender of the last rebel command worthy of being called an army. ! t Is a happy time , at first , as wo march hrongh the pine forests of North Caro- Ina and past the well cultivated plantn- iona whore the citizens have filled buck ets , tuba and barrels with cool water for ho benefit of the soldiers. Darkles have como long distances to see na , and are wild with joy. Ono old chap exclaimed - claimed that "da whole world has gene y eonco daylight ; " another sang out 'Dar goes my boys ! Hurra for dom. Joy clars ebberything before'cm ! " A woman who was ovarjoyod with her newly acquired freedom shouted "You una all is nngels from hobben ! " But ou ; tramp to Richmond was a hard ino. It was reported that the various orps commanders had laid a wager as to fho ohould reach that city first , nnd as ho weather was excessively hot there wan much suffering among the mon. Ono lay wo msichod thirty-two miles nnd when onr company cf forty-two mon tacked nrma nt night thcra were only Ix in the ranks ; the others had dropped out during the day , unabla to keep up the errlblo pace , nnd were scattered for miles along the road in the rear. Before reaching Richmond , hundreds of mon In Sherman's army were sunatrnck and in many Instances death resulted. I saw non of my own acquaintance who lad gene through battles end dangers , enduring great hardship ! nit surviving them all and living to the end of the war ; who thod started on onr northward march from Raleigh with icarts filled with gladness by thoughts of lorno and freedom those men I have scon drop to tha ground from the effects of onu stroke , and , with foaming lips and staring eyes wrltho in tha dunt with igony , the victims of a brutal lack of consideration on the part of ofiicera. whoBo only thought should have been to care for thee heroes and make light and pleasant this last march , homeward 3onud , after so many months and years of danger and suffering , Mon died on THAT DltEADFOL JO0UNEY ffho had earned the right to see their lomoa and loved onoj again , bub were denied that right and murdered by the heartless Indifference of corps nnd divis ion commander * . Tbo story of the hot may have had no foundation but the Tact remains that the march of Sherman's army from the capital of North Carolina bo the capital of Virginia In the month of May , 1805 , after the war had closed and when there was no occasion whatever for rapid movement waa a sea son of terrlbla buffering to the Infantry and the direct cause of tlio death of ecores to pat It with great moderation. From Richmond to Washington city the march Is much easier , nnd Is over his torlctl ground. Ono night wo camp near Hanover court oonso a building erected In 1735 , forty years before the first gun was fired In the revolutionary war. May 17th wo crest the lUppalunnock at Froclorlcksburg , and scan with "military eyes" the battlefield where Bnrnsldo was so badly whipped in 1801 ! , and wonder how any man with ability sufficient to command a picket guard could have at tacked an enemy so splendidly posted , crossing a considerable stream immedi ately In ffont of hia position in order t ? make the assault. Wo march past the little church In which Gen , Wcshlngton waa married , ( i ! least so wo ara told ) , and on the twen tieth of May go Into camp on the south tide of the 1'otomao , two miles abovn Alexandria , Tire days later the array of the Potomac , neat , teim and tfdy , marches past the capital building , down Penus > l- vania avenue and In front of tbo white house , and the following day Sherman's army , ragged , browned , and na destitute of "trappings" and uurp'.ui ' baggage as conld well bs Imagined , took the snmo Ino of march under XIUUMMIAL mt groups containing hundreds of school shlldreu singing In chotiu ; cheered by , ona of thousands cf poopio lining the downlka , filling doors , windows , and jalcahiss. and covering the roofs of nildingsjllowors and bouquets showered tpon us from all atdoi down in front of , ho white house whcro opposite the bronze statute ot Jackson n largo stand haa been erected In which Is seated President Johnson nd his cabinet , Orant , Sher- ma-i , Mcado , Logan , Howard , and many distinguished military mon from foreign countries. "Proud ? " I ahonld aay eo. Every man matched ns though the gaze of that vnat assemblage waa focuaad on ilm Individually , and , though his cloth Ing asd personal adornment were not muah to speak of , the consciousness of soldierly duty well performed at Dalton , Rsasaci , Dallas , Kennoaaw , Atlanta , Altooua , Mllledgo- vlllo , Savannah , Columbia , Bcntoiuvlllo , Goldsboro and Raleigh , and the thou sand miles nnd moro that ho had tramped to theao point ) , gave n vigor to hia bady , firmuois to his stop and brightness to his eye which his batter clad brother who pasted in review the day previous lacked entirely. Behind the various divisions caino the cookj nnd camp followers , with camp equipage packed on donkeys and mules. Ia this train , docked out with ribbons , muchod two magnificent oxen , which bad baen received whllo the array was al Chattanooga a year previous , for boel purposes. They wera not needed there , and were driven along on the Atlanta cimpiign , thence to Savannah nnd around throngh.tho Carollnao , as cnro- fully tended and ciml for as two pot dttona The boys named them "Chat tanooga" and "Ohlcamaugj , " and It was matter of congratulation that their bo- lav .or on the grand review was all that could bo dtslrod.

It has been nscer- ained from monuments by learned antiqua rians that the border cither woven or sot to , ho dress consisted of onq or moro stripes of ho same dark color , cither placed parallel vith tlin teams or running down tlio horn rom the girdle at the sides , or from the hroat in front , Phrygian diesses are repre- ented ns being adorned with gold fringes.

Wo are apprised ) y historians that nt Athens , during the time of Persian wars , men wore lorg hair tied up on top of the head and fastened by n pin in , ho form of a cicada. St. Paul mentions somo- hing of men wearing long hair , that t was "a shame" when writing o the people of Corinth , which city was located on the Isthmus which separates ho Ionian from the Aegean sen , It was a treat commercial city , and traffic poured hrough its gates as ovtr the isthmus of ) arien , the commerce of two oceans , It waa a highway between northern and southern Jreeco , to this custom wai evidently Intro- need into t'no Christian church by the Grecians , lint modem times are tilled with the vain , rivolous , extravagant nnd foolhh. Some one asks : "Does God really condescend to notice uch small things aa a persons apparel ? " It eems so from biblical history , and if God notices it , surely his ministers should notpass t by. I sometimes fear the modern pulpit ireachor panders too much to tha idle fancies f the occupants of the pews. TUB danger is wide. "Hut , " asks one , "what is pride ? " I nswer it is that vanity of feeling and of action that causes n well clad person to hun one moro illy clad than themselves lecause of the apparel without respect to the food character of the party. That is wherein iride comes , and God calls pride crime. So lely looks moro at cloth than at character. ) ur gamblers are about the best dressed entry our city afford. I would rather bow In eferouco to a resptctable poor man dressed in agged apparel than to the broad-cloth gentry f the gambling hell. So many people are pt to think that becinso they are bettor dressed than others they nro of course better > eoplo. There nro some of our modern con- regationa of humble worshipper ; , nothing > ut wholesale millinery shops and flower pots. Now , I have no objection to this when it rentes no vanity. I once eaw a lady cntar a hurch , and while the organ was sounding orthits sweet voluntary strains , she marched ip the isle to a front eido pew , flung n couple f flashy ribbons over her shoulder loxt the audience and looked at them , then at the people. Of course I do not eay her leart was not filled with the Holy Ghost , nnd hat eho would not willingly have followed "uBU3 tluough the burning dust ot the Pales- inic toad * , and washed His feet with mount ain raiat and wiped them with these ribbons , I believe there will bo fashion in heaven , but n different kind from earthly fnihion. It will decidn the color of the drees , and by n i t and beautifnl law the population will vear whito. I have no oust iron rules on' the subject of mmnn apparel. I have neither prim nor mulish ideas about it. But it is n fsct that ho goddess of fashion has sot up her throne n this world , nnd at the sound of her musical natrumunts wo are expncted to fall down and vornhip. Her bible comprises the testaments jf Madame Damorest's magazine ; iud Harper's 3azaar. Wo cannot deny that ; her altars are ending up continuous ( limes ot smo n from , ho sacrifices ot ilia bodies of ten thousand victims. In counting the victims of fashion wo find about ts mauy masculine as wo do feminiuo. Hen make theeo tirades against woman as hough die were the chief worshiper nt this dol's ' ehiitie. Men have their club rooms , yachting parties , wine suppers , and they chow and smoke SICO.OW.OOO worth of tobacco every year ia this United States. Some are o nice that they cover what little brains they lave with bangs , and carry canes , showing bat they nro either lame in limb or in mind , Inordinate fashion rules the world. There are men and women who put so much In dig- > 1ny that they have nothing left for God , nd needy humanity , Think of n Christian woman tbeddlng tears thick and last into a > 25 handkerchief over the story of n poor icathen , and then giving two or three cents to the collection , covering it BO that people rny think it Ia a 810 gold piece , There are men who are put theirwlts ends to ceep up their wives' ward robes , Ouu mail Ikes to BOO his wife appear as well as another , md ho must get her some articles as cottly as te can nnd cannot afford.
