While we werethns gathered, all seemed contented nd happy, not even giving a thought to what might happen ere the sun had reached his meridian. To Horse," was sounded immediately after our repast was over, and all were anxious to be foremost in the battle which was then inevitable. The merry peals of

lighter and the fnendly voices seemed . a. JS 1 to banish every thought of danger, and all went forth to discharge the duties assigned them by their country, feeling confident, "Hedoeth all things well.", Immediately the fight began by an occassional shot from the enemies pictets, then a change was ordered resulting in the utter demoralization of the small detachment sent out to oppose our progress. But a few moments sufficed to bring us in front of Gen. Jackson's (Rebel) Division of Cavalry. Though his numbers were far superior to our j own, we hurled them bnck for a time i with but little effort, but our numbers J were not . sutlicient to cope with the spirit for going ahead, consequently by ; the hour of nine, the enemy had flanked us on both wings, leaving no other reource for tl9 but to withdraw as best w? couIJ? a half J)Ast nine an order camc for two companie9 of tlie od Cav. a!rv to remain and imnede as much ns poisiLle lUe advance of the enemy, wiiiIethe balance of the command fell back to a more suitable josition, and again form ft niorc 9ncceg9fi resistance. As eoon aa tUe main column had cleared the flank3 of the eneinVi they closed in upon thc gmall jetachment left to o ppose them. Lie.. A c Smith, who was in com mand of this detachment, upon ascertaining the fact that he was completely surrounded, at once determined to cut his way out and rejoin his brothers in arms. But a few moments served to have all in readiness for the grand struggle for life or death, and then the shrill voice of the brave leader, rang out above the storm of battle with but the one word, "Forward," and immediately placing himself at the head of his little command, he dashed forward, sabre in hand to meet the hissing messengers of death. But those who accompanied him faltered not at beholding the master spirit of the little party lying dead nt their feet, but taking courage from the cruel death of their commander, they rushed forward with the full determination of avencinr the death of their comrade, ar.d dealt death to all who dared to oppose them. There were none others killed, and but two wounded in the charp-e. Thus has perished one of the most noble on9 of our mother State, but though he is missed at the camp circle, his memory is enshrined in tlie hearts of all who knew him, aud will ever shine as a star in the dark horizon of war, to guide all true soldiers on to victory. We sincerely mourn his loss with those to whom he was dear at home, and deeply regret to have to record the death of so noble a patriot, while the bright smiles of peace are just dawning and gladdening the hearts of fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters and lovers, with the sweet hope of again dispensing the warm kiss of affection to thoso who cheerfully went at the call of their country, and shrank not when the dark clouds of adversity seemed to settle upon our banner and laugh to scorn tho efforts of those who were ready to die in its defence.

For the PaDadiuSBGen. Wilson's Cavalry R'- 1 3Xacox, Ga. Jane 1st, 1S65-' On the 2-2d of March the Corps left Gravelly Springs for Selma, Ala., arriving in front of Selma on Sunday, 2d of April, finding it garrisoned by seven thousand men under the command of Lieut. Gen. Forrest. The . men of the second cavalry division were dismounted

to fight on foot, commanded by Bng-Gen Long. The line of battle was rormed f j mile from the rebs first line of works, j Gen. Wilson concluded to attack on j Mondar roornino-. Gen. Long rode up j to Gen. Wilson saying, General, "charge their works, now or never." Wilson replied, "can you break the rebels' line with your division ?' Gen. Long said "that they never failed, when started to charge with a y." Gen. Wilson orders General Long to charge the rebel works with his division. As Geu. Wilson had i ordered not to attack till next morning, he sent an orderly to start the 4th and j and 1st division to charge also. They i were engaged in getting supper, while Gen Long at the head of his division charged the town. While we were laying in line of battle, Gen. Long spoke to ; Wilder's Brigade.as they we were to lead j .., . i ; n tl 1.r,mAs tliit- hnA t LUtr luuiLi. tvii km.. - j , never been repulsed" by the enemy, and that after they got to the rise of the hill, it was much better to go forward than to return ; he also told them that he would lead them on to one of the greatest victories ever gained by a cavalry commander. At four o'clock the orders were given to form siugle rank as soon as we gained the top of the hill. When we arrived at the top of the hill orders were given, "Charge them with a yell !" Cheer after cheer went up from the line of Wilder's Brigade. A heavy fire from the Spencer Kitls would not permit many rebels to stick their heads above their works for fear Ihey might get their fuees spoiled, liefore wo arrived at t'ae fort there was :i deep ravine to cross over, which they had filled up with brnsh and lugs to stop our line here. Many a man lost his life by getting his spurs fastened in the brush. Still they charged oa. Arrived at the fort, we found a strong picket fence of pine posts in front of the forts. Such a crawling through cracks I never saw before. The rebels stayed in the fort till they received a volley from the Spencers, then their line broke, and so many men shot in the back were never before seen by any one. When thc line first broke the men could reach the Johnnt-s with their long rifles in the bai-k. The line of Wilder's reached single rank 2 miles. Thus 1?00 men drove 7000 men from behind impregnable works A charge was ordertvj the second time to drive the rebels from their second line of works this was done in like manner. Here the men had to rest, having charged o er oue mile. The third and last line was to be taken. The 4th U. S. Cavaliy charged on horseback, with sabres drawn gallantly did they go iu; but large ditches impeded their progress so that they had to turn back. Agaiu the command was given to charge them with a yell! Wilder's Brigade soon mounted the last fort now the rebels flew in every direction. We securing 4000 prisoners, 75 pieces of artillery, many mules, horses nnd wagons. Just as we took the last fort the 4th and 1st division charged, shouting, "Wilder's boys are in town!" Wilder's Brigade is formed by the 17th and 72d Ind., and thc 98th and 123d III. The 7'2d was guarding our horses; so there were but three regiments that charged the town. I do not know thc loss of the Corps, but our Division lost 2'27 killed and wounded. The 17th's loss was 9ti killed and wounded. Frots four o'clock till dark overtook us, the fight continued. The loss of the Corps will not reach 500, as the 2d Division did all the work; while the Rebel loss is over 1,000.

In the great review at Washington tlie other day, one of tlie inscriptions in Irontof the Capitol wss ss follows ; 'The only National debt which we cannot pay, is the debt of eratitude to o ur defenders !" Every other debt can bo paid but our debt to you cannot be paid. The pittance of py you have received is nothing. Still vou have the great reward the consciousness of having done your duty of having been acors in the greatest events of the age. We remember tlie honors paid a few grey haired men a few years since, who occupied tlie position of honor in our Fourth of July celebrations. All honored thetn ss heroes of tlie Revolution. So it will be with te mini who hare fought tbe battles of this war. ToeV w ill b; honored as tbe saviours of thia nation tor all r'me to come. Our army ia ttie fineat tHe aorH evr Ilsmw.

Tliev have wrtwijM great changes in public opinion. ! When this rebellion broke out. the South boasted that i one Southern man could w hip four Northern men.

Dsvis has been held up aa the model of the chivalry of tbe South ; and yet be was enmeerud into kU xift'tpoor old mujihrr I I have only time to refer most briefly to tlie history of j our regiment. Here tbe Governor gave the history from its departure from hereon the tb of Septem'jer, 1362, until its arrival at Nashville, on tbe 7th of May, lSJi, embodying a proud and noble record. The Governor alter thankiog them again for their coble conduct retired. GEN. W1GNKK S srEBCB. Gen. Geo. F. Wagner, responded in behalf of the regiment. He saw tbe men at Perryville, swearing aad tearing because not allowed to go into the fight. At Stone River I saw them withstand the charge of a brigade. At Chicamauga you w ere also firm as lious. But at Mission Ridge was your proudest day; I was outside tb line of fire, but for thirty minutes I saw your colors moving on inch by inch, from stone to stone, tram root to root and cliff to cliff, you steadily pressed onward, pouring in tbe deadly missiles, until you planted jour colors ou the enemy's works. In returning there is one thing that makes me feel sad in this hour of rejoicing. When you went out your ranks were full many of jour brave comrades have been left in the grave of glory, leaving mothers, wires and sweet-hearts to mourn theni. One thing I will enjoin upon you, as I know most of your fa:mlies ami you know mine : That is your fallen com rades, rou must not see tb?ir wives and children suf- , eared fur .n a .hcuie- No wife or cbilThe nh and i'th are on their way. The city will be in a buzz of excitement for some time to come, as their will be soldiers returning daily, and these must be eared for. Col.

KigMlv honest and strictly faithful in all his transactions with m -n, yet it was in his religions life that the rcdevuiitig jiialitiea of the man shone moat conspicuously. Practically realising to a great extent that injunction of tho Redeemer of ineo : But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy ctoset, and when thou hast shut thy door pray to thy Father which is in secret ; an l thy Father who seeth in secret shall reward ihpc opi-nly.
