fell to pour over Meadow Bridge' and
crush Porter ; while farther to their right,
on the right bank of the river, Magruder
stood sullenly confronting the fortifications

Porter. If Porter Wt. Whaee sew

be, it could not fail to be disastrous to the
Union Army., Fortunately, Branch did
-not twigs to be of any use on the 26th,
and the Pennsylvania Reserves heroically
held their ground against the - repeated
assaults of Hill. That day. as the ominous
sounds of the deep mouthed cannonpme
booming along down the murky waters of
the Chickshommy, all felt that the day of
trial had arrived, and with strong hearts
they girded themselves up for the contest.
Then was seen the mustering of battaliene
and of squadrons'. Then were beard the
busy notes of preparation, and the martial
tread of armed hosts. The haughty
Southren was about to' grapple with the
sturdy Northman in deadly conflict. The
fiery impetuosity of daring pride was about
to encounter hand to hand, the deliberate
courage and determination of high re
solve
Col. McLane called his officers together
and told them that the contest they bad
long looked for was at band ; that the
struggle was about to commence; and that
he expected every officer to do his whole
thity. In the afternoon Butterfield's
brig
ade was ordered to the; right and rear at
'the army at a point near Cold Harbor, on
the White House road. to prevent the ap
proach of rebel cavalry, who were report
ed to be corning. np in that direction.
The lith N. Y., Col. Lansing, were dis
patched towards White House on a neon
noissance, and were not afterwards heard
from until sometime in- July following,
when they rejoined the Brigade at Harri
son's Landing, on the James river. 'Choy
had extended their reconnoissance as far
as Fortress Monroe. The rest -of the
Brigade remained in position but a short
time, when they moved up in the rear of
the Re erves,'wbere they bivouacked for
the night.
Early on the following morning the
Corpi fell back to Gaines' Mills.where the
plan of the coming .conflict was speedi
ly arranged: Hill, (2d) Anderson, Whiting
and Langstreet with his veterane k came
pouring over the Meadow bridge close up
on the heels of Hill (Ist ;) while Jackson's
legions came swarming down between the
Pamunkey end the Chickshorainy.
Against this fearful array of the flower of
the Southeast army was General Fitz J.
Porter's corps, twenty thousand men,.
without a single - redoubt or breastwork
for their protection. Butterfield's Brigade
was assigned to the extreme left of the
line j and was there arranged in two lines.
of battle. the Forty-Fourth N. Y. and the
Eighty Third Pennsylvania forming the
first line, and the Twelfth N. Y. and,
Sixteenth Michigan the line of supports.
Axes were procured and .trees felled, arid
very imperfect defences constructed beforei
the enemy came up. Skirmishers were

did come it was destined testriketheleft.
At about 3 o'clock p Capt. J Ifor
ris, of Meadville; who.was in command of
the skirmish line, was carried in severely
wounded, and a few minutes after the
skirmishers came in on the run, under a
shower of bullets, closely followed by a
heavy assaulting column of the enemy.
At that moment Col. McLane's huge voice
eould be heard above all the noise and
confusion of the moment, directing his
men to stand steady and cool, and - reserve
their fire until they heard the word of
command ; and a 'few, minutes after.
where the enemy bad advanced over the
brow of the hill and were within easy
range, the command FIRE" given' in
stentorian tones, meant to be heard and
obeyed. was followed by such a' crash of

ing his hat twenty feet high in the air,
shouted . ie tones of exultation, " I kriew
you - were the boys that could hold this position!
That's. the reason I put-you here ! If they
come upon you again give it to them! You are
just the boys that can do it ! " which elicited
a perfect outburst of enthusiastic eheers,
that made the welkin ring and ring agsin.
For a period of twenty or thirty minutes
,the air was fairly shivered with the roar of
artillery, when the enemy, reorganivd and
reinforced, 'again appeared over the brow
of the hill, pressing forward for another
determined assault;—bit their " dead
line" Was already marked out fir them by
the bodies of their comrades slain in the
fret onset, and beyond this they must not
pass; and aggin, that terrible tornado. of
death.swept them from the summit of the
hill. It eppeara to have been a - favorable
project of the enemy to crush the left of
our line, which extended to the flats of
the Chickahosainy, If they could but
force back the left, McClellan would be
compelled in order to save Porter's com
mend from utter destruction to retrieve the
disaster' with troops from the right bank
of the river. and then 3fagroder could
strike there with fatal effect. It is not to
be • wondered, that• schemes so well as
ranged were maintained with such dogged
persistence. and only abandoned with the
greatest reluctance. Again they deter•
rained upon another and Goal assault.
This time, as their columns approached
the ‘, dead line," their - officers, mounted
and on foot. could be seen dashing along
their surging lines, cheering forward and
encouraging their devoted men. As the
maddened but aloof the plain, galled and
fretted by hiririonnds, plunges madly at
the horse and rider, so rushed forward the
hosts of treason} to the third encounter.
Butm well might the mighty waves of the
ocean have attempted to overflow their
bounds when Omnipotence said, " Thus
far shalt than lesme and no farther.",
e
!' Don't let a in cross that, brook,"
shouted Col. X Lace;—and instantly the
/ravine bubbl e ;and baited like the very
crater of helli sending forth fiery jets of

enemy fled in heirror and dismay,. Then

ing made in the Order of attack minutes
of painful auipenta to the force;• acting
op the defensive. But this period of sus

right the thundering tones of the brazen
throated cannon and the rattle of mug
ketry announced thatdhn work of death
bad commenced in that quarter. Along
down the line. groans with murderous
turbulence, rolled the thundering tide of
battle, until it reached our immediate
right. The scene , was concealed from
view by interveninetrees, but those horrid
sounds` well advertised the atrocious maj
esty of the conflict. Lauder and louder
grew the awful din. The rapid detona
tions of the batteries, commingled with
the crash of musketry, and the shouts and
yells and cries of the assailants and as
sailed, seemed to.parslyze the vibrato -
properties of the air, and sounded lik :

"Then it was, that the Twelfth 'N.

served to leave the field ; but it was sup
posed that they bad. beep called away to
re-enforce Barnet other portion of the line
of battle. In a very abort space of time
a battery opened on the right, throwing
shells. directly down exploding
them among tbe ' troops with deadly ef
fect. In a few 'minutes after the battery
above mentioned opened, Lieut. A. r.
White came down the line and iafirmed
Col. McLane that Martin/bile's Witty%
had given way, and that his right was ea.

<bark to your place Lieut. White," said
McLane. "Gen. Martindale will attend to
that part of the line." White. like a true
aoldier.made no reply. but politely saluting
'his Colonel. returned to hie post of duty.
Directly after came Adjutant Lamont,
evidently excited, with the information
that the right was completely-broken, and
that the enemy were advancing upon our
flank and rear. Col. McLane almost re
fused to believe it. He was loth to aban
don the position. Early in the day when
Gen. Butterfield had sent an ordet-to - bim

replied, "Tell Gen. Butterfield he need Dot

L Brown on the right had already begun
to double back, when tbe Colonel reluct

intention to swing his right wing to the
rear until it was at right angles with the
left, 'and then by moving by the right
flank to draw out the left wing until its
left rested at the precise point that had

abreast of the centre ; and upon the left
a general state of confusion ensued.
Never were Col. 211cLane'n self-peuession

played to better advantage than at this
critical moment: The enemy were upon
him, and from the cover of surrounding
trees, were pouring in a deadly fire. • The

Into position, and in lees time than it takes
to narrate the event, the line was restored
and formed as complete as if for a dress
parade. -
Then ensued a scene that beggars de
scription. The enemy, elated and flushed
with the victory of the' hour, like huge
packs of yelping hungry wolves, reckless
ly rustled forward to the attack, and pofir
ed incessant showers of leaden hail into
the ,blending ranks of the Eichty-Third.
But - they encountered there no wavering
liner, no timid warriors, no "Carpet
Knights," but the bone and sinew of
North-estern Pennsylvania,' : animated
by that sublime courage that dares resolve ,
to win or die; and with. sturdy and un
flinching valor they grappled with the
fearful odds and dealtihem blow for blow.
But death rioted alone their lines and its
victim& were strewn thickly around ' • and
alas 1 among the first to fall, was Col. 31c 7
Lane 1 Pierced through the with
rifle ball. his life's blood stained the soil of
the accursed Confederacy-. The cry " The
Colonel is killed 1" was heard from near
the spot where he fell"; and was taken up
and repeated along that 'dusky line from
one end to the other. " Cbl. McLane is
killed'!" was uttered with a piercing cry_
that was distinctly heard above 'the hor
rid tumult of the strife. But not a cheek
blanched, nor did a nerve quiver, but then
might be seen beneath singed and black
,
ned brows; eyes gleaming with revengeful
fires. And next fell Ilitsj Nagbel I
kind, gentlemanly, generous and christian
Naghel! He too, poured out his heart's
blood near where his oldest and best
.friend bad fallen. And there, close to the
line of battle, seated upon an old log, his
collar opened and his head thrown back,
with countenance as pallid as death itself,
might be seen Capt. A. IL Judson, the
historian of the Eighty-Third. A bullet

and without a thOught of the rear or of a

until be sink down exhausted with the
loss of blood. And oh ! the pure crimson
tide of life oozing and gOrelogicwth from
an hundred strong. hearts that was satu
rating Secesiion's soil along those valiant
ranks.
The mildness of desperation seized upon
the survivors ; and pressing forward
step at a time, they rapidly poured volley
after volley into the sheet of fire and
smoke in their front, until the enemy be
gan to falter. Then the sharp click of
bayoneta was heard along down the left
as they fixed them to their muskets, de
termined to cheese upon the foe. But
the enemy, already appalled by the fear
ful resistance they bad encountered, were
unwilling to meet the charge of their in
furiated antagonists, and precipitately fled
from the woods. Captain Thigh Camp
bell now assumed command •of the Pesti-
went, and wombed theca out of the woods.
into an open field. Here, in a few min
utee, they were joined by a remnant of
the Sixteenth Michigan, under Maj.
Welch. Col. Stockton- had been wound-
ed early in the day, and Lieut. Col. Rhule,
with a portion of the regiment, had *ban._
doped the field on being apprised of the
mat disaster of the day ; but -Major
Welch. followed by the choice spirits of
the Sixteenth, nobly came forward to aid
in extricating the Eighty-Third from the
difficultiei that beset her. The appear
ance of the enemy over a hill in front
soon apprised them that their bloody
work was not yet done ; and they msde
immediate arrangements to again en
counter the foe. The trine of battle was
again formed, the Sixteenth occupying
the right. The advancing enemy we',
after some parley, ascertained to be the
Mayon th Smith Carolina, and another re
giment. About this time, Hai. von yap
sack, a Prussian officer, serving by permis
sion, on General Butterfield's Staff. ar
rived upon the field and ordered an im
mediate retreat, but the idea ofretreating,
in the fats of an insolent and deflint foe
was n 3t to be for a moment entertained ;
and the gauntlet was defiantly thrown at
the enemy. Again the work of death
commenced. The enemy poured in a
murderous fire. The color bearer of the
Eightv-Third fell, (several had fallen be.
fore) pierced through the head. He fell
bodily upon the colon. leaving distingtly
upon its silken folds the bloody prints of
bis hands and head. Another brave fel.
low rolled the body of his fallen comrade
from the flag. and raining it high he drove
the socket deep in the ground, and taking
possession beside it commenced loading
and firing ; but he too, soon bit the dust.
Capt. Brown (now General Brown) while
engaged in env:humping and directing the
fire of his men, fell waunded in the abdo
men. Ammunition begsai to fail ; and
the already decimated ranks grew thin
ner and thinner, when Capt. Cawbell
ordered the men to lie down and cease
firing. About this time, the Sixteenth:

like scattered fragments, flying to the

Now was the time, if ever, to leave the
field. Duty no longer required their stay,
for they now had orders to retreat, and
five times that day, regardless of the fear
ful odds. had they repulsed and driven
back the enemy. The stubborn eantro.
versi ba.d by this time attracted the at
tention of the main body of the Confeder
ate army, and the enemy, in solid masses
came swarming over the bill and upon
either flank. •CapteriA: Campbell now re
solved upon a setrc „movement. The
regiment was bropiglit p "about face"
and moved rapidly down the They
bad retired, probably four or .five rods,
when D. C. Thayer, of Co. F, discovered
that the colors had been left standing in
the ground, where they had been placed,
as previously narrated, and calling out :
"Boys. it will never do to leave the flag!"
immediately started back, followed by fif
teen or twenty of his comrades. The ma.
ment he reached the colors, a bullet went
crashing through his brain, and he, too,
died a soldier's death. The-colors were
recovered, and the regiment retired to a
small flank breastwork that had been
hastily thrown up by the 44th New York.
Here Lieutenant Col. Rice, with five com
panies of the 44th, were found. The he
roic Rice had refused to leave his position
as long as the 83d were in peril ; though
Colonel Stryker, with the other five com
panies of the command, had abandoned
' the field.
A moment's observation seemed to con
vince all that the works were no longer
tenable. While the enemy were bearing
down in masses upon the front and right,
they were also observed deploying into
line across the left,' within thirty. yards of
the left of the. 83d. There was but one , -
way of escape and that lay across the flats
of the Chickahominy. Extending their
lines to the right and left as far as practi
cable, under a murderous fire of grape and
canister, scrapoel and shell, they ran,
far alas wends that skirted the stream, and
darkness had covered the scene wh'on
they waded through the muddy waters
and bivouacked on the other side. It
was not until the excitement of the battle
bad subsided, and nerves strung to their
utmost teeson had. relaxed, that the sur
vivors of the 83d fully realized their great
.Im. As a full sense.of the perils through
which they bad passed crept over their
souls, and a concinusness that upon yon
der hill. whose dim outlines could yet be
traced, lay two hundred and sixty tive of
their comrades, cold in death or mutilated
with ghastly wounds, and above all, their
beloved Colonel, wrapped in the cold em
brace of death ! As these reflections

Lane dead 11 Their beloved Chieftain, to

of deep sorrow they recounted Ws acts of .

the members of that sorrowful group.
Brave, generous souls ! ! They never for
a moment reflected that they themselves
bad only reached - safety through a whirl
wind of fire and a sea of blood. Their
own glorious deeds of daring. destined to
write their every name in characters of
tieing light upon the scroll of fame, were
all forgotten. and they charged themselves
with gross dereliction ofduty, that the re- -
mains of their ,immortal Chieftain had
been left to the brutal obsequies of their
rebel foes. But it was not ,alone that lit
tle griMp, upon the shores of that dark

A Poseurs Joxs.—A goed•story is torsi
of a Mr. Sayre, Lexington, Ky: Ifir.tfayr•
lisps a little, and a good joke is toll], op
him, the better for its truth. Some years
since an overseer of one of his farms told
him he needed some hogs on his place. Said
Mr. Sayre! " Very well, go and buy four
or five thouth and pigs right away, and
put them on the farm." The man, arm*.
tomed to obey. and that without questiot
ing. asked: ." Shall I take the money with
me to purchase with 7" "No thin They
all know me, Thend them here—l'll pay
for them, or give you the money .to pay
when you get them, The overseer went
his way and in two weeks returned, whoa
the following conversation took place:
" Well. Mr. Sayre, I can't get that many
pigs. I have ridden all over the ,country,
all about, and can buy but between eight
and nine hundred." "Eight or nine
hundred what?" "Eight or night
hundred pigs ?", " Eight ormine hundred
pigth l Who told you to buy that many
pigth ? Are you a fool !" " You told me
to buy them two weeks since. I have
tried to do it." " Eight or nine hundred
pigth! My God I never told you any
thouth thing I" "But you did—you told
me to go out and buy 4 or 5,000 pigs l" "I
didn't do thutolt thing ! My God ! I told
you to go and buy four or five thows and
their little pigs, and you have done it I

sell next fall.
idsznarrics' Virivas.--Speaking of the
middle rank of life a good writer observes
—"There we behold woman in berm glory ;
not a doll to carry silks and jewele., not . a
puppet to be dangled by fops, and idol to
profane adoration, reverenced to day, dis
charged to-morrow,alwaysjostled out of the
place which nature and society would as- -
awn her, by sensuality or by contempt ;
desired but not esteemed.; ruling by pas
sion, not affection ; !imparting her weak
ness and her Zonstancy to the sex which
she would exalt, the source and mirror
and vanity we see ter as a wife, psi
taking the cariso. - and cheering the anxiety
of a husband ; dividing the labors by her
domestic diligence, spreading, cheerful
ness around her ; for his sake sharing the
decent' refinements of the• world without
being vain of them; placing all her pride,
all her joy, all ter happiness, in the merit,
ed approbation of the man she loses. - As'
a mother we find her the affectionate; the
ardent instructress of the children she has
tendered from their loaner; mining
them up tcrrhought and virtue ; to teeth
tation and benevolence ; addressing them}
as rational beings, said preparing them to
become men and women in theirturn.
Mechanic's daughters make the best' wives

. Blair/v.—Let me see a female possess
ing that beauty of a meek and modest de
portment.J—_, of an eye that speaks intelli
gence and purity within—of the lips that
speak no guile ; let me see in her a kind
and benevolent disposition, lk heart that
can sympathies) with distress, and I never
ask for the beauty, that dwells in "ruby
lips," or "Bowing tresses," or "snowy
hands," or the forty other et auras upon
which our poets have harped for so many
ages. These fade when touched by the
hand of time ; but those ever enduriog,
qualities of the heart shall outlive thii
reign, and grow brighter and fresher as
the ages of eternity roll away.
