mind used to war scenes. Ho was leading in a corps d'anuee to re-enforce “Fighting Joe” Hooker in a crisis of the terrible battle at the cornfield and Hunker chrrch, a struggle where more men fell in a given space of time— from 6 o’clock in the morning to 10—than in any other single conflict in America. Hooker’s valiant men had won gxound, but were in danger cf losing it by a strong ^ Confederate dash into their left flank. In swinging around the Union flank tho Confederatt s had thrown forward a boldly charging column to heavy clump of trees on the same ridge over which Mansfield l.d his troops. Everything was in confusion in both lines. Generals fell before they could carry ontthe orders of th'dr superiors, and the superiors were shot down win n their plans were only half known to their subo’•- : dinates. Mansfield had never before been seen on any battlefield of the Army of the Potomac. His troops bare- : ly knew him by sight, as lie had been their leader only n few days. Tho command of a corps was a higher one than he had pre viously held, yet ho was past middle ago and old enough to have been the sire of any of the other corps generals on that field. At the very instant that the zealous veteran led his advance lino evor the ridge the opposing lines in the cornfield were surging backward and forward, charging, cheering and firing volleys which covered tho scene with powder smoke and veiled tho warring battalions as with a heavy mist. Making his way boldly on horseback through the woods toward tho edge of tho cornfield where tho firing was hottest and the lines most irregular, blue and gray being often intermingled, ho fancied that the in<ui around him whom ho had just brought in and told where to tako position were firing into a body of their comrades of another division that had just been repulsed in a charge through the cornfield and were retreating. In his zeal to stop the supposed blunder ho rode out into plain view of the Confederates who had defeated the men he was trying to shield from the bullets of friends. For a moment lie sat there, a splendid figuro on that fiery field of Mars, then turned and beckoned to his soldiers behind him not to fire upon the men close in his fiout. Turning his horse half around, he calmly rode down tho lino of his advance brigade, telling the men individually not to fire in the direction ho was pointing. When ho enterred tho ranks of tho Tenth Maine, two officers ran to him and said that tho troops in front whom ho was risking bis life to shield were dressed in gray and were at that very moment pointing their rifles at him. “Yes, yes; you are right!” he exclaimed, wheeling his horse and reining him at a fence behind. The horso carried a severe wound, received while his rider had held him in front there, making that superb and statuesque pose, but the general did not know this and spurred him to the leap. Weakened by the wound, he could not make it. General Mansfield then dismounted near the officers who had warned him, and the wind happening to blow aside his coat they saw that he was wounded through the body. Ho immediately sank down, and some of tho soldiers strapped a blanket to two muskets. On this rude stretcher the aged hero who had snuffed the battle and hastened from afar, yet fallen without seeing a single grand battle charge, was borne from tho field dead. He was the first corps leader killed in tho war. General Leonidas Polk, the surpliced warrior, was the only corps oommatidar on the Confederate side in the west who ieii under iTitj uf an enemy, rlo was kilLd in the midst cf th" Atlanta campaign in 1864 and had long distinguished himself as a valiant leader of 1; rg.> bodies >f vksi When the war began, he was a prominent bishop ot tne Episcopal church, but having been educated ns a soldier he offered his sword to the Confederacy and immediately took rank as a gallant son of Mars. Ho it was who fortified the valley of the Mississippi and gave the national troops their first repulse on attempting to move south of the Kentucky line. He was tho first Confederate to measure strength with Grant, and at Belmont, in 1861, his guns and regiments turned the newly fledged brigadier back from bis threatened blow at Columbus, Folk's stioughold east of tho river. At the battle of Shiloh Polk led the First corps of Sydney Johnston’s army in the early morning assault ou Grant's camps. His corps fought at Perryville, and at tho terrible battle of Stone River he led tho right wing of the Confederate army; also nt Chickaniauga he led the right wing. An incident of his career connected with that bloody battle tested the metal of this gallant soldier and proved him true blood. His superior on that field, General Bragg, asserted that it was the fault of Polk that the army of Rosecrans had not been destroyed. He was relieved from the command and refused an offer of reinstatement unti' he bail purged his record and recovered prestige before tho army by the display of ability and gallantry in the face of the enemy. That he did by a bold and Skillful campaign in Mississippi, defeatf.io Sherman’a movement to Meridian.

ncturiung to tne ota army, rone ico « corps in the Atlanta campaign until 1 is tragic death at Pino Mountain. Ho fell by a chance shot on the ground of another corps. When the center column of SHerman’s army, under Thomas, drew its lines in front of Pino Mountain, a Confederate division belonging to Hardee’s corps held the crest w :li a few guns in position. Seeing that Thomas was about to envelop the mountain on three sides, tho Confederate commander rode out to the batteries to decide whether they could be maintained ; there without great risk of captur<i, Hardee went along, as tho ground and troops involved were under his control. Polk accompanied the party to make a

third voice in the council.

After di v iding that the whole line should be removed at dark that uight the trio halted near one «f the redoubts to watch the movements of Thomas' troops getting into position less than a mile distant. To draw tho fire of the mountain batteries and test their strength a company of Ohio artillerists in tho advance of Thomas’ line opened i fire, aiming—by special direction of General Sherman, so the camp tradition runs—at the group of Confederate offi-

The Author Makes a Corrected Statement Itelating to Its Provisions. London, March 7.—The chief secretory for Ireland, Mr. John Morley, in the house of commons, yesterday corrected a statement which he made in introducing the new Irish land bill on Monday last. He said that if a landlord did not assent to the price fixed by the land commission for a purchase by an evicted tenant or tenants, it was not intended that the whole transaction should end. The government intended that if a landlord did not object after a prescribed time an agreement to purchase would thereby be assumed to have been made, and in case of disagreement as to price the land commission must

determine it.

officer that had shown himself there that day, bravely went ahead at the call of duty to arrange his men for their safety and the good of the cause, ns he believed. Seeing the soldiers dodge tho whistling bullets from force of habit, ho laughed at their fears. “What, what, my mon, dodging this way for,* single bullet? What will you do when they open fire along the whole line?” This byplay was kept up with several new actors, affording merriment to the veteran admirers of “Uncle John” for some moments. Finally there was another close whistle, followed by a dull thud near at hand. The general’s heat! and shoulders turned, probably involuntarily from the force of a blow, for bis aid, standing alongside, caught him as he fell, “the blood spurting from the left cheek under tho eye in a steady stream.” The aid fell-under the weight of the body of his chieftain, and when they reached tho ground tho hero was dead.
