fresh interest on account of the army

True, the pages of authentic his
t jry give no record of slaughter on
'.hit -ay at the hands of these terrible
fellows. The havoc ?bey made was
not wrought upon Yankee Mesh and
blood, but upon imaginative courage.
K part of the problem of war is to
strike terror to the hearts of thc 1
enemy, both the combatant and thc 1
-stay-at-home element, and that thc
''aaa di ul of horsemen who rode black
-steeds at Bull Hun succcodcd in doing

Black Hor?o bugaboo.
The thought of grim and devilish
riders upon prancing black war charg
ers, cutti?g right ond left with gory
eabreSj becamo a spectre haunting
roany minds all through the war, and is
cv3W found among oral traditions of
the conflict when veterans fight their
battles over.
It was ju6t two years to a day be
fore that memorable first encounter of
the Blue and the Gray on tho hanks
of Bull Bun that a militia company of
cavalry was organized at Waterloo, on
the Rappahannock, in Fauquicr
county, Va. It was mode up of F. F.
Vs. Its captain, John Scott, was an
educated planter, and one of the
lieutenants was a Randolph, whose
calling was the law. The other
lieuteuaot was a planter named Gor
don.
lu the ranks there wero planters and
the sons of planters bearing noted
Virginia names, and the majority of
"them afterwards rose to rank in tho
Confederate service. Whatever their
names, they were cf the stock of the
."Lees, the Madisous, tho Tylers and
-the Randolphs.
Naturally the great attraction of a
militia company for these young men
?as of a social nature; but when the
-time came to buckle on the sword in
earnest they were ready for the busi
ness of war. The first duty of this
company was to protect tho officers of
thc law at the execution of old John
.Brown, for it was expected that a for
midable attempt might be made at
.the last moment to rescue the libera
/cor.
When the war uprising came in Vir
ginia, which was after thc fall of Sum
?ter, tho Black Horse company, under
ILieut. Robert Randolph, rushed to
.arma and marched with another local
".scmpaoy-to Harper's Ferry, ready to
sarry out the plan of seizing tho gov
ernment arms and arsenals. That
?trip, Which was looked upon at tho
lime as a holiday affair, was the be
ginning of a four years' service in the
.saddle, for the border was soon ablaze
with war, and the oavaliers of Vir
ginia were not the mes to shirk the
arden! at thal hour.

fl Under Capt. W. H. Payne the com
pany -skirmished with the federal ad

duty on the/day of the battle of July
.31, 1851.
3?b doubt the reason why the Black

many places on that field was that it

special guard of both Stonewall .Jack
son and Hubert Jv Lee during some
of their hazardous ventures within
the cocui? '? lines.
When Jackson penetrated the fed
eral lines at the second Bull l'un, and
placed himself and his whole command
between two fire's, thc Black Hur-?.'
troopers were his personal escort. At
the crossing of Hull Kuri un this oc
casion Jackson's headquarters detach
ment was charged upon by the First
.Jersey brigade <>f federals, ('ailing
up a party ot Virginians, only 'J'o im
brex in all, he lcd them to the attack.
Driven oil at the bridge .Jackson found
his army cut off from JJCO and Long
street and menaced on every hand by
superior forocs. In this dilemma he
Bent Capt. Randolph with half his
troop to bring Leo to the scene.
By good fortune Randolph passed
the numerous federal commands
mar:hing between Manassas and the
Rappahannock, where be found Lee.
On the return all roads were picketed
by the federals, ?nd the party lay one
night closo to the camp of Buford's
cavalry.
Fortunately for Leo, his intrepid
guides found a route of escape to the
lines of Longstreet's oorps at Thor
oughfare Gap, and next day the gen
eral reached Manassas to direct tho
battle which saved Jackson from cap
ture.
In tho Maryland and Antietam cam
paign whioh followed that of Manas
sas, the Black Horse riders remained
close to Jackson throughout his daring
enterprise of surrounding Harper's
Forry. After it was over Jeb Stuart,
Leo's cavalry ohief, sent for the *roop
to rejoin its regiment for a grand raid
into Pennsylvania, But Stonewall
demurred. Said he:
"I know the Black Horse and can
omploy thc greater part of the com
mand for Btaff d"ty."
Thc personal iventuros of the men
of this unique company while scouting
recall those of Revolutionary days.
When the federal army marched from
Maryland toward Frederiokaburg in
tho fall of 1862 two of the bold Vir
ginia troopers found themselves in the
rear of their enemies.
Curious to know the destination of
the vast array of bluceoats, they fol
lowed. Near Stafford they stopped at
a house and asked the mistress, an
aged woman, to give them some
brandy.
"You aro in danger enough already
without adding to it by drink," she
said by way of emphasis to a firm re
fusal.
But she relented when they prom
ised to bring back six Yankee prison
ers. Af tor numerous desperate deeds,
in whioh they charged belated parties
of tho federal rear guard, eaoh cap
turing his man, they appeared at the
Stafford house with eight captives,
two more than they had promised.
After Stonewall Jackson's death at
Chancellorsville tho Black Horse re
turned to tho regiment acd rode with
Stuart northward to Pennsylvania.
At Aldie, where Stuart fought both
cavalry and infantry, the commander
of the troop selected 30 men to charge
as a forlorn hope and stay the advanoe
of a regiment of fodersl infantry. He
declared that he never expected to see
a man of thom return.
The dash was made in column of
fours down the turnpike. A cloud of
dust raised by tho galloping hoofs
oovcrcd up the insignificance of the
line, and the enemy, after a single vol
ley, recoiled in confusion.
The bold and hazardous ride saved
Stuart's column from disaster. Later
in the day the company rode into
Stevensburg just as tho Third Virginia
cavalry was suffering defeat. Without
honking, Capt. Randolph led his
Black Horse in a spirited dash among
tho federal troopers and saved the
Third regiment from annihilation.
A brave remnant of these troopers
was in saddle wheo Stuart rode out in
the Hpring of 1864 to head off Sheri
dan's column on the great raid to
Richmond, and the day after Stuart
was killed the gallant Capt. Randolph
fell while defending the very gates of
tho city. Capt. A. D. Payne, one of
the private troopers of first Bull Run
days, tock thc lead and commanded
through tho stirring sabre battles at
Petersburg and in the Shenandoah
valley.
And the element of tragedy in its
darkest phase was not wanting in the
oareer of these Black Horse ridera.
Just after the affair at Waynesboro,
between Sheridan and Rosser's squad
rons, in October, 1864, Privates Mar
tin and Campbell of the Blaok Horse
band were returning from a long scout
to their own camp. It was late in the
evening and rainy, and the troopers
had thrown their waterproof blankets
i over their shoulders, partly oovering
their gray uniforms.
I Three mounted men were seen riding
}. bchiIKI iii''?:., ut '1 they were in
he nar ''I .Sheridan's column they
u(?posed the straugc trio (. be fedora)
soldiers. Cocking their pistols, they
rode slowly, purposely to h<. overta
ken.
Thc federals-for such thc hirangcrd
wort' -had suspicions, and prepared
for a tight. As soon as thc strangers
came up alongside, the scouts wheeled
on them and demanded surrender by
opening lire.
Thc newcomers proved to be Lieut,
.lohn H. Meigs, and engineer ou Sher
idan^ staff, and two orderlies. Meigs
put a shot through Martin's body, but
Martin braced himself and shot Meigs
dead.
One orderly escaped and reported to
Sheridan that Meigs had been killed
by bushwhackers, at:d for this sup
posed atrocity Sheridan ordered the
burning of every house within five
miles of thc scene.
Martin recovered and returned to
his old home in Fauquier couuty. Af
ter the war the fainer of young Meigs
applied for a court-martial of Martin
on thc charge of murder. Capt.
Payne, of thc Black Horse, was able
to prove, however, that Martiu was a
soldier on duty at the time of the en
counter, and that Meigs was killed in
legitimate warfare.
Tho handful of men- with Capt.
Payne at Appomattox did not surren
der with Lee, but started to march to
North Carolina and join Gen. Joseph
E. Johnson's forces in front of Sher
man. Then came news of the last sur
render, and the cavaliers dispersed
and hung up their swords for good.
Tho Black Horse commander at
Bull Ruo, W. H. Payne, roaohed tho
rank of bragadior general in Stuart's
cavalry corps He died a few weeks
ago, and thc northern papers chron
icled with due soberness the tradition
about his having led the famous
Black Horse cavalry, whioh wrought
much mischief at thc begiuning of the
war. All there was of it he led at
Bull Run, Borne 60 or 70 lively young
bloods, who had chanced to select
black as tho color of their mounts to
secure uniformity.
"Dye It," Said Beauregard
Sinoe Col. Blanding's return home
he has found among his papers some
penciled reminiscences which we have
requested of him for publication, sayB
thc Sumter Item. He says his mem
ory for recent events, say, in the last
forty years, is so bad that he is loth
to publish anything of occurrences
within that time. Those antecedent
to secession and even nullification he
readily recalls, but ho* gives us this
flag sketch:
The first and only publio delivery of
the battle flags of the Confederacy
was made by Gen. Beauregard at Cen
treville, Va., soon aft?r First Manas
sas, and was most impressive. It
aroused a decided war spirit in the
boys, and will be readily recalled by
the few survivors left. One incident
particularly created wild enthusiasm
and will bear relating.
His division (soon after corps) was
drawn up en masse, the colonels of
regiments, on order, dismounted,
marched to the front and stood in line
twenty paces before Gen. Beauregard
and his staff. As the number and
State of each regiment was called by
his A. A. General, its colonel stepped
to within five paces of the General,
who taking from one of his aides hold
ing them, ene of the battle flags in
hand, briefly addressed a few martial
words to bim, and waving, delivered
it to the oolonel, who of course was
expeoted to respond briefly.
The ground color of the flags was
different, though the Southern cross
of stars and bars was the same on all.
One of them with a pale ground was
delivered to a colonel, I think, of a
Georgia regiment. Returning his
thanks with the usual pledge that it
should beoarried to the front, nor ever
have ono stain or dishonor on it, etc.,
he added: "I have but one objeotion
to it, its oolor is indicative of fear,
and looks too muoh like a flag of
truce." To whioh Gen. Beauregard
in his nervous m inner and military
tone quiokly answered: "Dye it red,
sir! Dye it in blood sir!" To whioh
the reply oame, "It shall be, sir. It
shall be, in the blood of the enemy,
General". And as quickly came tho
response, "In your own, sir, if neces
sary." "Aye! Aye! General."
This raised a shout, or rather a yell,
whioh from it frequency soon became
well known to both sides as the "Hob
el yell."

Tlx- disposition made by will with
in a week of two ^rreat fortunes, one
thc largest in Philadelphia, and the
other usually held to be one of the ten
largest in the city, will inevitably
raise discussion as to the wide free
dom allowed by statuto and common
law to a testator.
The power to draw a will is neither
a constitutional nor a natural right.
lt is exclusively the product of law.
So oountry leaves it more free than
the United States. In all European
countries a will under which a man
leaves all his property to ono descen
dant is prohibited by law. Under tho
Code Napoleon, and this is a general
rule of European law, the utmost
sli8rc of his property over which a
man has complete testamentary con
trol is one-half. Ile ca.i alieiiatc that.
The rest he must leave to his children
and he must divide it among them un
der a ratio imposed by law, from which
he can vary only under narrow limilB.
Louisiana has preserved this limi
tation. A will leaving all an estate
to one descendant would not stand un
der the statutes of the State. Somo
other States in the Union impose simi
lar limitations, but mont leave a man
free to do as he will with his own at
death. In this State thc only limita
tion imposed is that the wife's dower
right, which at common law attaches
only to real estate, now attaohes also
to personal property, so that any wife
can, if she ohooses, take one-third of
tho estate if leno be left to her by the
will, or one-half if there is no ohild,
her ownership of that muoh of the
personal property being absolute and
of the realty for life.
In England theoretically and legally
a man's control over his property is as
complote as it is in American States,
reoent statutes having abolished the
special privileges in regard to realty
enjoyed by the eldest son, but custom
in these matters is stronger than lat?.
A tradition in existence for centuries
establishes the habit in England, a
habit BO strong that it has more than
the foroe of a statute, that the bulk
of a large proporty shall be entailed to
the eldest son. Where the eldest son
comes of age during his father's life
time, it is nearly always the oase in
largo properties that a settlement is
made, which oouid be made just aa
well here as far as the law is concern
ed, by whioh the son accepts a life in
terest in all he inherits with the ex
pectation that a deed of settlement
with his eldest son will in due time
keep the property in the same line ol
descent and division, the eldest BOD
receiving nearly all and the others s
mere pittanoe. It is in England
equally rare, (outside of the novel,]
that an eldest son is disinherited 01
that the estate is divided among a
number of children equally.
The Courts in this country, power
fully influenced by a public opinion,
whioh prefers a tolerably equal divis
ion of property between tho children
and wife, (if one survives,) have gen
emily regarded with a friendly eye
attempts to break wills in whioh some
one descendant or kin received a dis
proportionate share. All the variout
decisions and the large amount ol
Judge-made law under whioh various
wills of this character have been bro
ken really represent a public feeling
in behalf of a general division of an j
property left by will, as Btrong ic
this country as is the sentiment io
England in favor of keeping the pro
perty together.
The law of most of our States not
only leaves a testator without restriot
tiona, but taxation is relatively light
as compared with the English practioc
in levying duties upon estates whiol
pass through probate. The commun
ity here has wisely felt that it wai
moro just and more equitable to ta]
property while a man was living anti
not to levy an impost too enormous 01
its devolution. This policy has beei
oonsomitant with and io a sense re
warded by the very liberal public be
quests made by thooo possessing larg?
fortunes in thia oountry.
Most large American fortunes an
marked by great gifts of this order
Should such gifts disappear, shouli
will after will leaving a great fortan?
pass without any recognition of jua
publio claims, a movement will un
doubtedly arise in this oountry, as i
did in England, ?for heavier inhen
tanco taxes. In England both th
estates where wills have juat been an
nounoed in this city would j have pail
an eatate duty of 8 per oenton all prop
erty lef t, whether inherited by th
next of kin, by collateral heirs or de
vised. Every estate over $5,000,00
in Great Britain passing by death ha
for ten years past paid this heavy tai
and the personality is liable for 3 pe
oent a year from the dato of death no
til I Ms tax is paid. Thia levy, one
twelth of the total value, is applied t
every object, to pictures and jewelry
as well aa to stocks and bonds an

Thc Electric Eugine.
Although ii has been one of the
greatest factors in the development of
this country, th?' steam locomotive is
doomed. That panting, pulling,
screeching monster, belching clouds
of smoke and showering cinders, must
give way to the electric motor, with
out noise or dirt for the transpor
tation of both freight and pcasengcr
trains.
Years ago it was demonstrated that
for passenger ti affio on short lines in
densely populated districts electricity
was in every way superior io steam as
motive power.
While reluctantly admitting this
fact, managers of steam railways de
clared that for long distance passen
ger trains and freight trains elcotric
power would he inadequate, excessive
io cost, and therefore impracticable.
It was claimed that until electricity
could be generated without the use
of steam it would be more economical
and efficient to use steam direct in
engines.
Actual tests m?de recently have
demonstrated that the cost of trans
portation is greater by the steam
engine than by the electrio engine.
A steam train of five oars and a stand
ard engine weigh 330 tons, and will
accommodate 168 passengers. It uses
at full speed 1,400 horse-power. The
electrio motor and four trailer cars
weigh 260 tons, seat 180 passengers,
and use 1,000 horse-power. The elec
trio train weighs less, uses less horse
power, carries more passengers and
goes faster.
Some half dozen railways in this
country have followed the lead of the
New York Central and arranged to
use oleotrio power on portions of
their lines now being operated at a
loss with steam power. Practical
tests made on the Lackawanna and
Wyoming roads, owned by the
Westinghouse Company, show an econ
omy of 30 per cent, as compared with ,
the steam systems.
Steam railway managers elsewhere
are exceedingly interested in results
being occured on the Ballston exten
sion of the Schenectady Railroad,
where oars are run with alternating
ourrent equipment just perfeoted.
The motors used can be run either
from a 2,000-volt alternating current,
stepped down in the car to 400 volts,
or from 600 volt direct current. The
eleetrio railway motors in general use
are operated, as is well known, by a
direct current with a trolley voltage
of about 600 volts.
It is olaimed that the new motor,
which can use direot or alternating
currents of widely-varying voltage, has
cleared the way for the adoption of
eleotrio power for light or heavy
iraiua, freight or passenger, on lines
of any length.-Chicago Inter Ocean.
