Gg btn > of October 10,
=i when we left there
and marched through the woods lover
what was called Sand Spring Ridge to
(Germanna Ford, where we crossed to the
south side of the Rapidan, then turned
40 the richt and marched up the river
+40 within about two miles of Raccoon
Ford, where we bivouacked for the
night unaware of any danger. We had
a good night's rest after an all day’s
gnarch. The next morning, October
11, the boys of Co. G. had a good army
breakfast of fresh mutton from the
sheep that Serg’t Limsey and I brought
into camp the evening before; but be:
fore we couid get time to wash our
dishes we heard the crack of the car-
ines on the picket line, which brought
Ne one mile east of]
every man into the saddleat once. with |
.carbines advanced, and in less time
“than it takes to write it we were ent,
«gaged with the rebels. Then there was
a little race between Col. T. C. Devin,
.of the 6th N. Y. Cav., then in com-
mand of our brigade, and some of
Fitzhugh Lee's men, as to who would
get possession of the ford first, but by
the usual coolness and good manage:
ment of Col. Devin (generally called
Old Tommy by the boys) we got there
in time to get the ford, when Old
“Tommy ordered & battery of artillery
to the north bank of the river, and as
the north bank at that ford is much
‘higher that on the “south side, that
.gave the battery a good opportunity to
«cover the ford for the cavalry to cross,
‘We had no more than got over the
river when we learned that we were
‘being flanked on our right,and we had
“to make for Stevensburg, with heavy
skirmishing all the way. At Stevens-
burg we tried hard to check the ad-
—yance of the rebels, and therel saw a
wegiment, I think it was the 8d Ind.
«Cav., make the most daring charge
{hat I have ever witnessed. They
«formed in line southwest of Norman's
Mill, just over a little rise of ground,
and out of sight of the advancing
srebles. They remained motionless in
“their saddles until the advance of the
rebels got within about 200 yards of
.them,when the first squadron from the
‘right of the regiment came galloping
over the hill fired their carbines at the
srebels, then wheeled to the left like
dust in a hurricane, and ran parallel
with the front of their regiment, with
the rebs after them. They continued
to run till the Jonnies got directly in
“front of the balance of the regiment,
.when the Hoosiers came over the hill
with their glittering sabers cutting all
‘&inds of figures in the air, and charg-
«ed into at least three Jonnies to one
Hoosier.
~ This was about as daring a charge
a8 ever was made by any regiment, I
think: The gallant regiment got out
with the loss of some men and a few
thorses. By this tame we were satisfied
hat we could do no good there, and
at once started for Brandy Station.
“The most of our command crossed
Mountain Run over the dam at Nor:
yman’s Mill, but the writer of this was
.onethe skirmish-line with the rest of
his company, and the most of us cross-
.ed at a little ford below the mill. Just
at this juncture we saw the rear of our
“infantry dissappearing in the woods at
Brandy Station, but we had heavy
"skirmishing all the way, with now and
then a shell bursting over us, till we
got in the woods at Brandy. It seem-
ed to be the longest six miles that I
.ever traveled. =~ When we got into the
woods at Brandy Station, we made a
good stand to check the advancing
enemy, and our brigade charged on
the rebs five or six times, one regiment
at a time, one after another.
Presently we heard cannonading
+ towards Culpepper, and Capt. Corris
gan, as good an officer as ever wore
shoulder-straps, said : “What's that?”
Col. Sackett replied: “That's Kilpat-
rick coming from Culpepper.” Capt.
Corrigan looked surprised, and shout-
.ed, “The h—1 you say.” But we had to
hold that place at all hazards. :
Right there we had one of the wild.
«est and most dashing cavalry fights
‘that took place during the war in the
Army of the Potomac. There were no
Jess than 10 or 12 charges made inside
.of 20 minutes, to say nothing about
‘the grand charges that Gen’s Custer,
Kilpatrick and Pleasonton had to
‘make to get through Fitzhugh Lee's
and a part of A. P. Hill's commands,
whieh was done under the old tune of
#Yankee Doodle,” which Comrades J.
TF. 8. speaks of in his article.
I remember well seeing what I sup:
posed was Gen. Pieasonton and a part
of his staff coming over the little hill
north of the railroad, near a little
‘brick hotise, the Genaral’s yellow sash
fying abot four feet behind his
horse. This was abont sunset. My
wegiment, the 9th N.Y. Cav, made
threo different charges, the last one
being the hardest. We started about a
-quarter of a mile east of the station,
and charged in a southwesterly direc-
tion clean through the woods into the
field west and southwest of the station,
‘where we could take olr last look at
k
it had happened |
last week, I was!
G, 9th N. Y.Cav,, |
Second Brigade,
+ the woods about |:
Poney Mountain for that day. But then
we had to get back without losing any
time, and when we formed in line
again for the last time that day,about
a mile east of Brandy Station, just
north of the railroad, Capt. Corrigan
was in command of my squadron, and
as there was not more than 18 or 20
men left to form of both Co.'s G and I,
the captain gave the command in a
loud tone of voice, while the tears ran
down his cheeks, “By fours, from this
little squad—March,” and we started
for Rappahanock Station, or, in fact,
more for the bridge. And the night
put.an end to that long and tedious
and bloody October day of 1863.
As an old darky summed 1t up:
“T'was a right smart squammaish, I
reckon’—J. N, Girrey, in National
“Tribune.
THE NATIONAL GAME,
FE Bostons ara making a runaway racs
of it. :
The twelve city circuit has already proven
a Success.
VAN HALTREN, of Baltimore, leads ths
League batsmen.
THE Louisvilles are only a shadow of their
former greatness.
CoRKHILL, of Pittsburg, never played as
well as this season.
HALLIGAN, released by Cincinnati, - has
been signed by Baltimore. v
CHAMBERLAIN, of Cincinnati, is the cool
est pitcher in the profession.
Rusk, of New York, is not pitching the
same kind of ball as last season.
THE Bostons have won more games by one
run this season than any other team in this
country.
Krrre's work, so far, for the Philadel:
phias shows him to be anything but a played
out pitcher,
THE Chicagos miss Pfeffer, of Louisville,
very much. Canavan does not fill his shoes
by several sizes.
More trouble with umpires has occurred
in Cincinnati thah in any other city in the
League circuits.
Boston and Brooklyn are the only
teams which have not up to date released
one or more players.
Trae Mayor of Toledo, Ohio, has come out
in favor of Sunday baseball, on the ground
that it will tend to keep men away from ths
saloons. : : a RE
WARD! of Brooklyn, is playing as well,
if not better, than when he was with the
New Yorks. His base running in particular
is very fast. :
LEFT-HANDED pitchers are no more of a
terror to Brouthers, of Brooklyn, than
right-handed ones. "He slugs them all with
delightful congisteney. ~~
EVERY city is supporting its local team
admirably, and financially the returns ex-
ceed any previous year in the history of
professional ball playing, = :
THE young women at the Bryn Mawr
(Penn.) College have organized twobaseball
nines, but have decided to play only, with
the Vassar nine and against other.
Ir will ba noticed ‘that fully eighty per
cent. of the games this season are won and
lost by a single ran. ' The batting is small,
ridiculously ‘so, and a home run’ is rare.
Have the pitchers, knowing that releases
mean retirement; braced up and dmprovad
wonderfully, or have the heavy hitters lost
the cunning of their eagie eyes’
SHOULD the Bostons win the first cham-
plonship they’ll have a warm season in the
second half. Every one of the other eleven
clubs will “lay for them,” will save up their
best batteries and take most desperate
chances to win from them. Such has always
been the fate of a champion team. Thereis
a long, weary, trying sumumer before the
Boston team.
THE game of baseball which was played
at Bastern Park, Brooklyn, for the benefit
of the widow of the late *‘Hub” Collins was
a success in every way. Over $3000 was re-
alized. The competing teams were the
Brooklyns and the St. Louis, the latter nine
being made up of those who had at one time
pared under Von der Ahe’s banner. The
