New York, via Washington. One of the most delightful routes between Chicago and the East is over tho Baltimore and Ohio railroad to New York, by the way o^Washington. The trip possesses mauy peculiar charms, especially to one whose journeying have never taken him to the borders of the sunny Southland. The ride through the Monongahela Vtlley, across the mountains of West Virginia, and then along the gently flowing Potomac, awakens a keen interest in the lover of natural scenery. Much of the ground traversed has unique historical associations. A largo part of this region was debatable land at the time of the civil war. Across these fields and down aiong these dusty roads once marched now the Blue and now the Gray. These valleys once rang with cheers, now for the Stars and Stripes, and now for tho Stars and Bars. These mountain heights more than once echoed the sound of deadly conflict. Here General Lee's army crossed the Potomac on that carefully planned invasion of Maryland and Pennsylvania which ended so disastrous ly at Gettysburg. Here Stonewall Jackson directed his forces on that "grand hunting excursion," by which he corraled the Federal forces in Harper's Ferry and compelled them to surrendar. And here at Harper's Ferry is still seen the old brick fort where John Brown took his stand in defiance of the slave-holding power. To one who remembers when these names were first writlen in blood, what an excitement of feeling the mention of them arouses Antietam, Sbarpsburg, South Mountain, Shenandoah, Harper's Ferry, Ball's Bluff. It is no ordinary experience to pass through a region fraught with such tragic memories.

The train hurries on and soon there is seen dimly in the distance a white marble shaft, and then a great white dome, and then other pinnacles and spires, and Washington is reached.

Even the most cursory glance at the city is sure to be profoundly impressive. A half hour's drive through the streets will reveal more clearly than any detailed description possibly can, those features which have given the city its reputation and made it, in one sense, the Mecca of all patriotic citizens of this country. The capitol building,the embodiment of national majesty, the Washington monument, with its lofty reach heavenward, the White House, with its deeply interesting associations, the. several department buildings in their massive stateliness, the Smithsonian Institute, the Soldier's Home, the broad avenues and beautiful paiks,—it does not take long to view these, outwardly at least and the viewing of them for the first time, by one who recalls what these public buildings stand for and the scenes which they have witnessed,is attended with emotions not easily described.

New York is about six hours ride from Washington, and tha road runs through a very interesting stretch of country, touching at Baltimore, Wilmington and Philadelphia. This is one of the finest sections of railroad in the world, the speed of the train often reaohing over sixty miles an hour.—Northwestern Congregationalist.

DASH FOE THE COLORS.

THE FORLORN CHARGE OF THE FIRST MINNESOTA AT GETTYSBURG.

Tlio Number uf Killed Unparalleled In History, KiUicr Ancient or Modern—A Similar Fa to llefel tho JFlrst Texas on

Aiitictain's Hlnody Field. [copyright by American Press Association.] 0 MOKE gallant ..deed recorded in history, was Gen.

Hancock's tribute First Minnesota for their forlorn charge at Gettysburg, July 2, 1803. Unlike many brilliant feats of arms, the dash of tho First Minnesota was attended with the most palpable evidences of the

Htru.mdo gone thr.iugh. The annals of lighting art filled with accounts of charges to tho cannon's mouth and hand to hand encounters of indescribable fierceness where the loss of life is remarkably small. The percentage of loss in killed and wounded in thuchargeof the First Minnesota was the highest sustained by any Union regiment in the civil war, and it was exceeded by only three-tentlus of 1 per cent by a Confederate regiment, tho First Texas, in the fatal corn-field at Antietam. The percentage of killed in tho First Minnesota, according to Col. Fox, the military statistician, was unequaled in all military exjerienee so far as recorded. Of all the grand exploits of that marvelous battlefield of Gettysburg, the charge of the First Minnesota was by all odds tho mast ilriun.uic, the most eventful, tho most desjKjrate.

The story of tlie disaster of the second day of the

1 Kittle,

when Gen. Sickles' Third

corps was overwhelmed at the Pejich Orchard, is familiar to every one. Sickles held the extreme left with one corps isolated, and was attacked at a time when he could not be withdrawn, and tho only thing to do. as Gen. Meade expressed it, was to st«ind imd fight it out. The battle raged for hours with terrible fierceness, and division after division \v:ls sent to the succor of the Third corps. Hancock's Second corps wits on Sickles' right and connected his line with tlie main Jirmy on Cemetery Ridge. From this lino detachments had been nnidu until there was barely a skirmish line left to support the batteries, which were tho mainstay of the position. The turning point of Sickles' fight was when the iingle of his line was broken in and his troops forced to retreat.

At this moment the Confederate commander ordered forward fresh troops to pierce the interval between Sickles and Hancock. The smoke of battle covered tho whole field and anxious uncertainty filled the minds of Meade and Hancock, who passed up and down t'.ie line on the ridge trying to keep the run of what was happening to Sickles. When at Last it was seen that the Third corps must fall back Meade ordered up reinforcements from another part of the field to support Hancock, and Hiiacock himself went toward Sickles' field to see what could be done to aid tho stricken corps.

While making his way to that point he saw through a rift in the cloutls of. battle smoke that hovered over the field a Confederate brigade (Wilksox's) moving up boldly with flying colors within a few rods of an exposed portion of his line. The enemy, if let alone, would strike a battery supported by eight companies of the First Minnesota, and there were no other troops in sight. Re-enforcements were on the way, but were some minutes distant. Looking over the little phalanx of a couple of hundred or so tho hero exclaimed, "Great God! is this all the men we have here?" Then with a sweep of his eagle eye to the advancing columns and their menacing liattle flags of red, he said to the commander of the First, "Col. Colville, advance and take those colors."

The men arose with a will and advanced coolly down the slope to the plain to perform their terrible task. The situation was one that every man in the ranks could understand. It was a movement to save time, and the First Minnesota was to be a stop gap to hold back the onrushing flood of hostile bayonets until succor came. There were 202 officers and men in the command, and the Confederates numbered one division, Willcox's brigade being in advance. Shot and shell tore over the field, and thousands of muskets were sending bullets across the plains to clear the road for the Confederate advance. At every step some Minnesotians fell, but they coolly held their fire, advanced with bare bayonets, and at the signal, within fifty yards of the enemy, they sprang ahead with a cheer.

Willcox's men wrapped their line at the ends around the brave fellows, receiving in turn the Minnesotian's first volley at arms' leugth. The Confederate colors were seized and the advance was broken. Before Willcox oould rally his men the Union batteries were at work upon him, and what would have been a great Confederate surprise and triumph was checked. The supports of Willcox wandered off in tho in-

"GREAT GOI! IS THAT ALL?"

terval, and Meade's ro-enforcements came to tlie scene and the crisis of danger on Cemetery Ridge was over. But the First Minnesota was gone. Forty-seven men rallied on the return. Fifty were dead or dying and throe times that number were wounded. Not one was missing, for never a soul surrendered, and no man dodged the ordeal and left the ranks. Forty-seven heroes marched back to the tidge, and the blood marks of Confederate shot were the certificates to account for the absences of 215 brave men left behind.

This loss amounted to K: per cent, of those engaged. The killed and mortally wounded numbered 73, or 28 |x cent.—an appalling loss when one reflects that the meaning is that of every five men four were hit, and of every four one was silenced forevvjf. The justification for this sacrifice Is best expressed in the language of him who was responsible, Gen. Hancock. He •aidi "I ordered those men in there beoause I saw that 1 must gain five minutes ^me. Re-enforcements were coming on the

run, but I hjow that before they oould reach the threatened point tho Confeder ates. unless checked, would seize the threatened position. I would have ordered that regiment in if I had known that every mail would bo killed. It had to be done, and I was glad to find such a gallant body of men at hand willing to make the terrible sacrifice that tho occasion demanded."

Tho only other regiment in the whole war to reach a pcrceiltage of lues among the eighties was the First Texas, Hood's division, in that terrible ground of carnage in front of Dunker church, Antietam, Sept. 17, 1802. The situation on the ground was one of tlie most trying known to modern warfare. The Confederates were on the defensive with inferior numbers. Tho odds were with them if they could foresee the points of attack. McClellan was moving in two columns, direct in front and a flank movement on Ijee's left, vvliera Stonewall Jackson had command. Around Dunker church, which sUxxl near a turnpike, was iui elevated wooded position which McClellan hoped to seize by a combined assault from two dilutions.

On the Confederate front thepo was a wide, open stretch, with soum ek«vntod nositions available for Union cannon if tho Coufedorat.es would allow tluun bo remain. Directly in front, of the church, some hundred yards distant, was a field of thick corn and a small, de.tiu'hed wood, and on tin Confederate left flank of tiio corn field was the best high, ojkui ground for Union batteries. Wluiever controlled tJio corn field could control the artJlle.ry site. Hood's division adwuicud from tho woods around Dunker church toward tho corn field on the morning of the 17th. They had occupied five groiuul tho day Ihjfore, whon the enemy was on one front only, the direct one, and they advanced cautiously through the tall corn toward what was supposed to Ixi tho only threatened point, and where re-enforcements were needed for a fight alrtyuly in progress.

The First Texas was in Wofford's brigade and was in tho center, with two regiments on either flunk. While marching forward in this manner Col. WofTord saw the columns of Union troo{r threatening his left regiments and ordered tho .First Texas to face to the left and help lxiut, off the enemy. Tho regiment responded, but in a short time wiis ordered to move by the right flank again to correspond to the movement of the Union troops. These maneuvers threw tlio Texans out of line with the rest of tlie brigade and they eutered the corn field of tall standing stalks fighting on their own hook. The enemy which tho First Texas had been sent against was in tlie corn, and this was so dense that the eye ootild penutrato but a few feet.

TItK LOST coLons

In this thicket fighting began, and the colonel of the First Texas stated in his report tluit as soon as the ball opened ho could not restrain his men. Formation could not be maintained and every man went on wherever ho could find a foeman, and no formidable check was made uutil the farther edge of the corn field was reached. Here there was a rail fence atul beyond a low ridge crowned with Union batteries. As soon as the retiring Union troops passed under their line of fire the batteries opened on Wofford's men, mid tho First Texas, being in front, close on tho heels of tlie Union infantry, veceived a galling shower of missiles. Tlie men luUted, and opening on the gunners and horse« inflicted a terrible punishment, compelling the artillerists to limber up and prepare to move away. But a fresh column of Union infantry came up, and moving in solid lines swept on through the corn, pushing Wofford's brigade before them, and the doomed First Texas, far in tlie exposed rear, was caught the second time at a disadvantage.

The commanding officer says in his report that although lie hud but a handful of men ho hesitated to order a retreat, and when at last he did so tlie few men remaining to him turned at regular intervals and fired upon tho

oiwmy.

Four of

his color bearers wore shot down under tho eye of the colonel, and lie rocognizcd thorn all. Four others fell carrying tho colors, but none of the survivors could identify them. Finally tlie Hag disappeared in the corn, the bearer falling unseen, aud when the colonel asked for the standard he wus told that it had left tho field Wlien the remnant came togetivor in the open field beyond the corn swarmed with Union troops, and it was too kito to attempt to ro cover the flag. Out of ISO Tenuis tliat entered the fight 45 ware killed and 141 wounded, or 82.3 per cent.

The commander, after recounting his action aud his Ioks, devoted much of his report to explanation of the loss of his colors. He wrote: "While tailing back (being still in the corn field) I gave tlw order to halt and inquired for the colors, intending to dress on them, when I was toki the colors had gone out of tho corn field. Then I gave tho or der to move out of tlie corn and form behind the crest of a small ridge just outside. It was when I reached this point that I became satisfied our oolors were lewst, for I looked in every direction and they were nowhere to be seen. It was then too late to recx»ver tliem. Thews was no one who know the spot wliere they had last fallen, and owing to the density of the corn a view of no object could be had but for a few feet. By this time, also, tlie enemy kad moved up within 85 or 10 yards of my left aud rear. No blame, I feel, should attach to the men or officers, idl of whom llought heroically and well. There was no •uch conduct on their part an abitndoning or deserting their colors. Tho colors Btarted back with them, and when they were lost no man know save him who had fallen with them."

This apology, made whon four out of every five of his men lay dead or bleeding, •hows how strong.is the soldier's ruling passion for the honor of his flag.
