Jon.f Richteb Jones, born in 1804,
-
i oellor of ibe Uoiveraity at Lewisburg) wae
chosen a Itegimental Chaplain, at Rox
borough, in the war of 1812. His grand
father, Rev. David Jonea, served as Chap

following, and again in 1812, when 75
vein of age. Of tbia period is the follow
ing anecdote, related by Prof. Anderson
in Spragne's Annals of the American
Baptist Pulpit :
On his way lo j.iin the Army of ihe North,
Chaplain Junes rt.de from .Nfw Brunswick lo
New York in the stage, in company with a
number ol genilemen, all of whom seemed lo
lake a lively interest in the political a If airs of
Ihe day- Among them was a young lawyer,
who was criticising, in no measured terms,
Ihe policy and spirit of President Madison
A weak administration a j. iserahly weak
administration,' was the epiihet which he
applied in the powers which then were. Mr.
Jones had sat quietly, taking but little part in
the discussion. But now he woke up. 'Yes,
fir,' said he, -it's a weak administration mis
erably weak." 8ome surprise was manifested
, at ihis concession from a man of Mr. Jones'
well-known political principles. "Ves, indeed,
a murrahly weak adminittrtititm. If President
MaHison were half the man he ought lo be'
lonkins foil in the eye of ihe young lawyer
hr tvmild hrrvr Aunr, bin vo, tenrra of nuch
eimfaundrri oral m y-u ! 'Sir! said Ihe
lawyer, with a great deal of warmih, if you
were not an old man, you would not say that
lo me. 'Ws, yes, sir replied Mr. Jones,
shaking his head energetically toward Ihe
angry youth 'and if I were not an old man,
you would not dare lo say that to me"
In Jaly, 1861, Judge Jones began to
raise a Regiment, (the 5Sth P. V.,) which
bas performed valuable services. Do the
22d nit , near Newbern, N. C , be acted
as Brig. General, and surprised a Rebel
eamp on Gum Swamp, capturing its
artillery, its munitions, 50 borscs and
mules, 200 prisoners, and after destroying
Ibe works retired lo bis esmp all without
loa. The next day, a Rebel foroe
appeared, but did no damage, until a
sharp-shooter, concealed, Bred ball
which struck Col. Jones in the breast :

fell into the arms of bis orderly,

and
expired. His remains were sent North
for burial, with all the honors of war.
His last letter to a

' ...

"It is belter for the great interests of man

Tuesday, May !i6, 18C3.
We left Lancaster, Ky., about 8 o'elock
Saturday mnrning.and took the'pike toward
Crab Orchard. The first brigade led the
way, the whole division moving, under
oommand of Col. Hsrtranft. The day
waa intenaely hoi. We have not bad rain
for two weeks. Tb passage of ao many
men, artillery end wagons, over roade
already ground to powder, raised olouds
of dost Many suffered in various
degrees from son-stroke, four I am told
died oat-right. Tbe eonotry we passed
through, resembled very much oar own
Valley, wanting tho earafnl cultivation.
About noon, we atopped on a high bill in
a field, and had dinner. There waa a
creek below, and many plunged down
eagerly to batbe in it W then moved
on about two miles across Dick' river, a
mile and upward from Crab Orchard,
where our order were countermanded,
and after lying in tbe road an hour and
more we encamped. Dick' River in not
as large as Buffalo creek.
Sunday, we packed, then unpacked, and
camped agaio.
On Monday, we passed through
Crab Orchard, and camped a mile beyond
town. A new fenee disappeared as if by
msgie, furnishing tent poles and wood.
We were gettiog ready fur dress parade in
the evening, when orders came to march
t 7 P. M., and at that time our brigade
j started, reached Stanford at 12, midnight,
. and bivouacked a mile beyond Ihe lowo,
, where we are now.
j Crab Orchard takes ita name from the
j spout maous growth of crab apples found
bere whan first settled. Il is on the line
I of ,ha Cr" emigrant road, called tbe
'..-ii a aa w t. I
"wilderness road." from Virginia. Il haa
Il . i i- i
been ibe scene of many skirmishes, j
Morgan encamped on the ground we '
encamped, near Dick'a River, when be
made bi raid into Kentucky. There
wa Captain Williams, of tb Union
army, lived near there, bom on eiok
leave, at tha lime. Morgan aent two men
over lo arrest him, He bid in a barn
or out-house. Tbe fellow plundered his
house, and among other tbiogs one of them
put ou bis uniform, and waa strutliug
around the yard. Tbia waa too much for
forbearance, aod Williams shot bim from
bia place of concealment, and endeavored
to aboot tbe other man, but be escaped.
Morgan burned bia bouse, and it ia
supposed tbat out of spits be burocd the
bridge over tbe river, as it was dry and
could be crossed by artillery aod wagons.
Tbe Stanford 1'ike comes into Ihe
other pike al Crab Orchard. Rragg, io
bis retreat, followed tbe pike we came
along. Ruell earns by Stanford. Bragg's
rear guard passed al 2 o'clock, and Ruell'
advance came in al 8 o'clock. Tbey
skirmished through tbe streets. Many
blame Buoll very much, aod say he ought
to bave eaugbt Bragg and crushed bim.
Tbey even go so far as to aay tbat the
reason was because Ruell and bragg were
personal friends, and tell tbe ridiculous
story that Ruell and Uragg slept together
one night on that same march. Ruell'
case aa you know baa been investigated.
It will not do to anticipate, but I may say
that no one knows what it is to move an
army, aod especially when everything bas
to be hauled as here. It was just as much
as tbey eould do to feed us at Lancaster
even our small Diviaion.Buell had 100,000
men.. It takea 400 wagon loads of provis
ions to arrive in camp each day, lo feed
sncb an army. Ia addition to that the
water ia lameutably acaroe even now, aod
when Ruell went through bere there waa
none at all, and he bad to haul all bis
water.
Crab Orchard is a celebrated summer
resort. There are various kind of mineral
priog, fine bolel and ground laid out
with all tb appurtenance of a Bedford.
Near Dick' riverwhere W camped, is a
altt spriag, where they manufacture a
great deal of salts, and yon may aee it in
the drag etores, labelled Crab Otchard
aaltz.
Tbe march hero was terrible. Tbe
evening air was pore and sweet, bnt tbe
dust was so tbiek yon eould scarce so tbe
man before you. The 11th New Hamp
shire had the lead. On ibe march from
Lowell to Lancaster, our Reg. had tbe lead,
and punished tbem terribly, at one lime
making 4 mile ia 65 minutes. Tbey
bought oz-teama to haul tbeir knapsaek,
and bave bad them eince. From having
on one occasion loaded tbeir baversaoks
with ginger cake, tbey got the name of
"eookiea" in the Brigade. Tbey call na
tha "Sour KrhuU." Last night, they bad
the lead, and they thought to punish as
in return, end they did slam ns through
at a fearful rate. We noderslood it, and
not a man flioohed. They suffered most
themselves. The moment they got into
tbe field where we were to eamp, they
dropped, aod when the commander of
tbe Reg. baited he had a most sorry Reg.
wnen we hailed we bad not lost a man.
They ebnckled over it eonaiderably, last
night, (we eould overhear them) how tbey
put it to the "tour krouta" but we bave it
on tbem yeL The rear-guard look np but
eleven straggler, asd tbey all belonged
to tbe 11th, aad beside Ibat their color
dropped ont and eame in thia morning.
With all this, yon must not understand
that there ia any other than an emuloua
rivalry between the Regiments. There i
tbe utmost harmony tbe lltn N. II. ia
composed of the very beat material for
soldiers and we are willing to put our
Brigade against any other. J. M. L.
