A correspondent of the Cltirclund
Lender writes from Frodrloksbiirir , Virginia
ginia- ' "J'liis battle. , 1 think , was the
greatest hliimliir made nn the union side
luring tin * war. " said a well-known

Uon Ins 11:11110 : for Homclimcs military
gentlemen nro very part.enlar about
being quoted , especially whm what they
HH : IR in criticism of some otlu-r military
p-iitleman. Continuing ho said : "It
has always bcuii to my mind it curious

Wo weru standing on Hie brow of the

I could see thu little headstones so
thickly covering the HOI ! thai itns with
diiiiciiliy tliov could be distinguished one
Irom another. With us wa.s I'aptain \ .
1-i. lirndley , of Frodorii ksburg , who , in
the haltlo lought here , was an artilleryman -
man in the conl'ederntu ranks. "Kignt ,
over there my battery was .stationed , " ho
said as he pointed to a ridge not far dis
tant. "From that position wo could sue
almost every part of llio battle-ground ,
and wo iiimed our guns whcru we
thought they would do the most oxucu-
t.ou. "
To give the reader an idea of the battle -
tlo ol Frcilcrii-kaburg ( the twenly-third
iiiinivofniiry of whicli wa.s on Sunday ,
Ueeember lilth ) a little description of llio
ground is necessary. Thu town is built
on the right or south bank of the Kap-
paliannoek river , on iiiitn | a , loyol plain.
Haul ; ot tlio town , at about a dUlinco : of
a mile , or very nearly Unit , is a higher
iilaUan ; or raujjo ( if hills , Miiryo's
llei lits bein ono of thoni. Across tlie
ICapiiahannock , opposite the town unit
very close to the river , is a Mill higher
nuiifi ! of hills. On llii.i latter ran e were
tins Union troops , ho were camped
lhe.ru several weeks hesitating to cross.
The delay was caused by a lack of pon-
tooiiM and other means lor cro sinjr the
river , and which was necessary lo brinj-
from NVabhin ton. Meiuiwhih' the con
federates , discerninjc that Gen. IHirn-
.side.'s motirn was to make his way to
Richmond by llio route of the Fredericks-
burj ; & Uiclimond railway , prepared to
prevent his crossing thi : Itappuhannock ,
or ut least make maltcrd very warm for
him if ho diil .succeed ineHinj : across ,
and they had gathered a larje armyLee ,
.Stonewall" .Jackson , Longslrci't and
other prominent generals in the confeder
ate army having brought their veteran
hosts thuro. A considerable number of
the Union troops had never been under
liru before.
*
*
After waiting nearly a month ( Jeneral
Itiirnshio gave order for the Union army
to attempt thu crossing , live pontoon
bridges being provided lor that purpo.se.
At tir > t the troops were harassed by the
eH'ort.s of sh.irj > sliooter.s , who wore posted
among the building.4 of Iho town near llio
river Gaul ; . There had been liringacross
Iho river at the union pickets now nnd
then in the weeks previous , and General
liurntidugavo notice that if that sort of
tactics were not abandoned ho would
bombard the town. This was u method
of warfare not recognized among modern
nations , and il turned out that the shooting -
ing was done by irrdspoiiMbln citizens ,
who were not in the confederate tinny ,
but took lo flighting thu Yankees on their
own hook. Mayor Slaughter , who is
now a judge of ono of the courts hero ,
promptly ordered the firing stopped ,
and nothing more ot the kind win
noticed until the union army began to
cro.s llio river , when the confederate
bliarpshooUirs resorted to the same
tactics to prevent the boys in bliio form
getting u foothold in llio town.
To enable the pontoon builders to
linish their work , which they could not
do so long : the nharp.shooter.-j were peg
ging away at them from behind the
buildings nnd stone walls , ( ion. Hunt ,
who i- , now in charge of tlm Soldiers'
Home in Washington , proposed that sev
eral pontoon boats filled with troopu bo
pent acroM to dislodge tint confederates.
This suggestion was adopted and lmpi > iljr
exeunt'd , after which there was no hin
drance to thu crossing of the stream On
the heigiils back of the town the whole of
the confi'derato army ijuietlv rested nnd
watohed the croaaing , ollering no moles
tation. They seemed confident that if
Hnrnside's men got across they would bo
in a helpless portionas the sequel proved.
The crossing took two days , so slowly wa.s
it condin ted , and tliwi tno task wa.s nt-
dimpled of dislodging the enemy from
the verv strong position ho had occupied
on the lieighls' . Four weeks beforewhen
the vanguard of thu union troops under
the bravo ( Jen. Simmer arrived at the
Happahannock opposite Ftedericksburg ,
but ono regiment of cavalry , four com
panies of infantry , and light battery
defended thu town , and ( Jen. Sunnier
linked for penniisiun to cro-M and drive
Ihuni out and occupy the place , follow
ing it up by Inking possession of the
heights and other commanding positions
so that the enemy could never have ob
tained the .strong position ho now held.
CJi-n. Itnrnsido refused his permission
until he h id e.stabli-jluid Ids communica
tions , and vury soon Iho opportunity had
passed , for Long.street soon arrived upon
Ilm scuno , closely followed by Jack on
and Leu.
*
*
Tlm morning of the Iflth of December ,
1BlW , opened with n heavy fog which
cumpliHoly enveloped every object in the
va'loy ' of the llappahannock. The confederate -
federate army on thu heights could hear
I he orders of thu union commanders lo
their men , nnd it was evident that an as
sault wa.s about to tie made upon their
llncf. When at 10 o'clock thu clouds
limillv lifted they beheld a grand specta
cle. The whole of the Union army was
advancing in lines of moro than n milu
in length. Coming up through the town
was the grand division of General Siim-
ner , to his loft anil forming thu union
center tliu division of Hooker , and fur
ther south , forming the loft wing of ( ho
nltacking force , wa.s General Franklin's
division , forty thousand strong , coming
forward in Ihreo lines over the lowl
fields. lirlghtly thu linjoiu-Ls of the ad
vanclng ho-t glistened in the Minli-'ht ,
but for a louy time there was sexrcely
any tiring , 'iuo < u < peii4u wj-t l'rnb.'e ; to
those who liiicl nnvor IwfornscMi warfare ,
but soon enough the carnage begun
t &
( Jon. fiurnslde's plan vr.ia to have
Franklin act vuly engage the euoniy in His
front and Simmer wus not to advinco
much until a mcunre : of success had
been won at the other end of the linobut
om 'how. Franklin , bv reason of later
orders , construed that ho wm only to
m-vke a feint , and t o attack was there
for1 wis not jcnir\l ! ; with Id ? force4 * . A
division under (5en ( Moatln vris ; pnt for-
Wird and ! iy shelling the wooded height
in hi.s front succeeded in driving back
the wdvanco line * of the onrmy. though
Jackson's men , who v er < i ahead of him
withheld their tire until the union troops
were at short range , when grape and
oittii-t'-r were thrown into the r.inks of
the advancing regiments , scattering con-
fuai' ' n amongthom. Lee's headquarter *
wo.ru just buck of where Mundo had
made the hardest light , and of course tlie
confederates fought funonsly to hold
then groundbut this fact wn1 * not known
to Moiulr'H men. Finding matters get
ting too hot for Mt men , they having
penetrated so far Hint the confederate
guiiMwore raking them from both llsnks
nnd in front , lien. Meade ordered a re
treat , seeing which the confederates tried
to drive them into n panic , but Gtn.
Oilibon , with his division and then ( Son.
Hirney , with H division of Hooker's men ,
came to the rescue and prevented a rout.
The roll-oat was niiiili ; in good order , and
the o < n. 'odorato.s were satiiltod to with
draw to their old position on the crest of
the hill.
All thin time the "battle was rasing
terribly at the other end of the Union
line. iMaryo's Height , which is directly
back of the town , U ip.iilo steep. It i.s
cikirte.d by a road at its base , on the
side of which , toward Fredericksburg at
the time of the battln , was a stone Wall
about four feet high on the inside , and
much hittjior on thoother side. Thus .1
comparatively small body of men could
repulse an army who attfimpl'Ml to scale
the barricade and a.scend the height , for
in the battle of Froderiekstmrg only
1.70J men werenoco arv to defend the
wall against the whole left wing of the
Union army. Tins road on the confed
erate side of the wall was about twenty-
live feet wide , iillbriling ample room tor
the defenders to work on'eotually , while
they were well protected from tlie lire
of the attacking force by the height of
the wall. On top of tlie height was bat
tery after battery , which swept the phi in
in trout of the stone \\all by a direct and
enlihiding tiro. Corps alter corps was
loreed to retire because of I lie murderous
lire from the artillery above , and the
showers of bullets from those behind
the wall. The men fell almo.st by the
hundred.
General linrnside was watching the ot-
feet of the attack from his pmition on
the other side of the river , but. the con
tinued failures of hi.s troops to take the
heights only made him the more de
termined to capture the position. Divis
ion alter divjsion was sent forward onl.\
to be every time repulsed and stiller the
loss of the greater part of its men. The
last ell'ort was made just at sundown by
Humphrey's division , which co-it 1,700
out ofl.OiiO in the .short space of fifteen
minutes and was then forced to fall back.
It was a hopeless task , and the union
commanders tried to make Hurnside be
lieve f.o , but he was inexorable , and over
and over said liiat. the height would have
to be.taken the next day. Thu confeder
sites were not aware that they Irid inlliet-
ed .such punishment upon the attacking
force , so they did not follow up their ad
vantage and pursue the union troops
whenever the latter were driven back ,
but rested on their arms , thinking that
the attack would be renewed the next
day. General Snmnor that night pre
vailed upon Iturnsidc that it was hope
less to try to take the height , and then
the army lay the next two days inactive.
On tlie night of the second day , in the
midst of a heavy storm , the union forces
wore withdrawn across tlie llappalian
nock , and tlie campaign in that direction
was at an end. A week later General
liurnsule was relieved uf his command.
In the battle of Fredcricksburg he had
lost twelve thousand of hit > men , while
Leu's army was diminished by less than
two thousand.
v .
V f *
People who were in Frederieksburg at
tlie time describe the cannonading as
something awful. Shells crashed through
thu roofs of buildings and down into
cellars where the occupants of the build
ing had taken shelter in the hope of
being more .secure from the ugly missiles.
Many of the buildings of Freddrick.sbur' '
still show tin ) otliicta of the terrilie artil
lery liring , and tlm sides of two or three
frame houses near the will mill look as if
they had been honeycombed by the
bullets.
A
Only a part of the stone wall still re
mains. Most of it lias been torn down ,
and the stone was used to form the little
house now occupied by tlie _ union veteran
who has charge of the national cemetery
on Marye'a lieight.
*
At the entrance of the cemetery nnolJi-
or reminder of the great struggle was
presented A woman wanted u.s to buy
Homo confederate money. "I worked
hard for it , " she said , "and L could not
have worked harder had it becu gold in
stead of paper.
Awful as is the lielu of battle in the
midst of an engagement , many laughable
incidents alway.s occur. When the union
attack was made on tlie left the Sixteenth
marine rugiment was among those which
hud penetrated farthest in driving back
Stonewall Jackson's men. In the Six
teenth was a private named Oliver Cred-
ditord.a large , powerfully-built man , but
wholly lucking in physical courage. A
fellow private named Levi Barker had
fallen wounded , and Creddiford , who
was only too glad to go any where else
than longer endure the lire under which
his comrades were forced to .stay , picked
up Barker , and with the wounded man
upon his back , between hin.self and the
enemy's bullets , btarted for thu rear. The
captain of the companv.whoso name was
Wcntworth , said : "Creddiford , come
back into the ranks. " Creddiford , with
out stojiping , replied : "Captain , YOU
must think I'm a d d fool to let Bar
ker die hero on the field , " and no more
was seen of Creddiford durlny that bat
tle.
tle.The
The region about Fredorieksbnrg wa.s
the scene of many bloody conflict : , dur
ing the war. It is doubtful if Michevere
lighting was witnessed anywhere , unlefcs
it be in the vicinity of Kiohmond , that
was seen within a radius of liftcen miles
of this place. The Wilderness and
Spotloylvania court house , as well as
Chanoellorsville , whore three of the
bloodiest battles of the war were fought ,
are but a few miles from here. A nier-
chan' of this place liu ; a curiosity which
was picked up at Wilderness after
Grant's advance from that place. It it ;
two minlo balls welded together , the re- !
bull of their meeting each other in mid j
air. .Neither ball can be seen to have
Ktillered moro than the other , and tliu
theory is that they were llrod simultane
ously from rillcs in the opposing lines ,
nnd , going directly in a straight line
toward each other , they met midway
from their respective starting points , the
heat caused by their midden collision
melting the lead and causing them to
transfuse and become us one piece of
metal. The force with which they came |
together must have been territie , anil had I i
they deviated from their course the
Miialloat fraction of an inch after leaving
the mu//.lesof the gnus they would not
have collided , but would have probably
killed or wounded the owner of caeh of
the guns from which they were fired

In the mid.sl of 'the plain over which
many of Sumnej's men fell in the nt-
tempts to Uike iarye'ii height is wh.it id
known to the people of Fredericksburg
as the Wndhingto'n monument. When
ever n Washington monument is spoken
of in litter diys H usually has reference
| to the "Father of his country , " but ia
thia case it has reference to Alary Wash
ington , the mot her of Gen. U asfiingloti.
It is nn unfinished < iriietnr , nnd n rough
description would speak of it as wimo
solid blocks of stone a few feet in thick
ness idled one above the other , tlm shie
of the upper om < i gradually diminishing
toward the top. Then ? i.s an
ornamentation ot the faces of one
of the blocks by the addition of nome
miniature Doric columns The whole
RlFslr in in ruins , one or two of llm Doric
columns having boon displaced , nnd
blocks of stone lyi'ig about on the
ground. On the surfnco of the upper
most block ol stone some earth has found
it-s way , and thorn some vegetation has
kiken root. The monument was intended
by a vealthy merchant of Nevr York to
purnotutito tlie nn-iuory of the good
mother of tlie most illustrou * man Amer
ica had known , lie was engaged to a
great niece of Mary Washington , nnd it
may b that ( lie prospective alliance with
the' Washington kindred prompted him
to attempt the | irrlonnnuoe ot so gener
ous a deed. Hut he failed in business and
could not complete the monument.
With the failure of his financial prps-
tiecls his lady love lost her admiration
tor him. She loved his money more than
she did tlie man.

which is above the town where the river

some years ago from the banks of the

New York Sun ; 1 have a friend who
is a commercial traveler , and on his re.
turn from a trip he alway.s comes up to
sen mo and enlivens my existence by u
recount of hi.s experiences on the road.
"Well , Charley ; , anything new ? " said
I , as Cluu-luy lilted my beit chair against
the freshly papered wall and pulled
vigorously at one of my stogtis.
"Not nmch.siilJ ho. "I'm sick of the
road. Too much of a dog's life. I'm
going lo quit and settle down. "
I expected this. Charloylhas boon going
to quit during the four years I have
known him , but lie never quits , and , in
common with many moro drummers ,
will shake tiie hand of many hotel clerk
yet before lit ) lin.illy settles down.

"What's the matter , ?
asked , as Charley mechanically looked
around for the bell button. "You'ro not
in a hotel , my dear follow ; " and I drew
forth a bollli ! and glasses from my cup
board.
"Well , here's luok , " said Charley , as
ho lifted his glass to the light. "No.
trade's limit y lair , but it isn't as it used
to be. Why , when 1 lir.st went on thu

carried one trunk and 1 could generally
get the trade lo look at my samples.
Now I carry three , and its the hardest
kind of work to get a man into a sample

do you ? Travels for a Chicago house.

I replied that 1 hadn't that pleasure.
Q'Tloasnrc. ! Humph1 it would ail'ord
me the most unbounded pleasure to get

"t was going to Kllingham on thu Van

'Thorn's a pretty girl in the front car

you work the thing right. I've tried it
myself , but 1 didn't seem to catch on. '
"I'vegot aiiilea roiitiitation among thu
boys in this direction , so I easily swal
lowed all Hilly .said and followed him
into thu smoker. I thought it mighty
strange that a girl should be in th. ) smok

you can bet she was a daisy. She was
seated by herself , when 1 entered , neat-
two gentlemen. 1 thought they uyed me.
rather more than was necessary. How
ever , I didn't say a- word , liut quietly
seated myself opposite tlm diimu ami

"After I hud looked at her once or

said 1 lo m > aolf , 'this Is ca-slur than I

was all the girl wanted She began to
move nearer to me. Then she nodded
lior head and .smiled several timed. In
nil my expericuc'1 never had n girl act
that way toward mo in such short time ,
and I saw there was something wrung ,

TOLD OF A MOONLIGHTER.
UcaVhoC Uunnntio Adventurer * Who

A eorre pond''iit ' of the New York Sun ,
writing from Bradford , l'i. , snys : A
chivip pin.1 col'thi and -in obscure lot in a
i'olU-1 iield form the last ro ting place
of William McN'cll. om of the l.imous
well ihoolorx of the oil region. When
d < iith cnnti ) it ovcrto > k him in tin ob
scure alley , within two pr ces of the door
of n rum hole Liquor Killed him The
body wai found by the proprietor of the
grocery , who stumbled over it in the
dark , and w is by him turned over to the
poor authorities.
After the war vrssover McNeil , in com-
jvtny with hundreds of other honorably
disc'liarped soldi rs drifted into I'ithole ,
the bodiniii ; : capital of oildom. He work
ed its a driller about the well * until the
birth of the Kobeits torpedo monopoly ,
and t ion hcc.tmc one of tno Mrs t of an adventurous -
venturous circle of spirits who fought it.
In tho1dajs ! it was unlawful to explode
uilro-jilyeefine in wells without Hob-
erls's consent. Despite the law , tlie
hardy moonlighter * , as the opposition
well shooters were called , tlonrishoil.
Hundred. ? of men grew rich out of the ille
gal trnlllc.aUhough .McNeilwho led a wild
career , was not one of them. Ho bad
nnuiv thrilling cscnpcs from death. On
ono oeeHsion three of his companion *
were blown rut ot the world. The three
men worn unloading tlie stulT
from the shooters' wa"Oi ! , Mc
Neil being at the well , about two
rods away. McNeil heard a terrible
noise and tainted. W h MI he regained his
senses he found himself in a clump of
underbriii'i eighty foot from the well.
Scattered through the treetops wore
( "hunls of lle. h and clothing. In the curth
was a great hole. 1'luso. by lay a dis
emboweled horse. A rubber boot with a
portion of a foot in It and an our were
picked up the day after fully a mile dis
tant from the scene of the dealer. One
of the men had probably dropped one of
the cans of nitro glycerine. Asidi from
a few brui-.es McNeil wis uninjured.
Alter this ho m. tried a rich widow
who happened to possess nn oil farm ,
and for a few years lived a life of res
pectability. The marriage was not a
happy one.however.sind he took to drink.
Mrs.'McNeil became disgusted , and one
day when her Husband \vns in town on a
spree she packed up her dunnage , took
the four children , mid disappeared from
McNeil's lite forever. Sim went to
ICuu.s.is City , where she died a few years
later.
McNeil went back to moonlighting.
When under the inllueneo of liquor tie
was si man to steer clour of. Among
other stories told of him it is related that
lie once boarded si train at Hickory , en
route to Oil City. His last cent hail noon
spent for whisky at Hickory station.
When the conductor demanded his faro
McNeil laughed and consigned him to a
plae" which has no exiat'iuuu isi Bob in-
gert-oll's religion.
"I'll putyou off tin- train , " angrily said
the conductor , as lie beckoned to his
brakeinan ,
"Naw , you won't , " sneered McNeil ,
waving a tin can in the nir which rc.so.m-
bleil an overfut rocket without the s-tick.
"Great Scott ! Glycerine ! " shouted the
conductor. In thirtv seconds the car
was cleared and McNeil monopoli/edlhe

After I had ati.iwered in the negative
he said :
"L reciconr-d yer never had , but. L kin
tell yer for pureeiissedness and obstinacy

We were sitting in si little cabin among
the piney woods of Florida. Our supper
of bacon and eoiTeo was over , and our
host , an old alligator hunter , had been
moved to make tlie above remarks by tlie
sight of a gopher , or land turtle , wad-
dliii'j along on its ungainly
"V er may think it funny thei er turtle

" 'Too bud , leetlu f.dler , ' i sed to my
