The morning of Nov. 6, 18CS. aaw Gen. Echols strongly Intrenched oa the top of Droop Mountain, where, tha day before be bad Joined Jackson's force, bringing with him four regi ments. to battalions and battery, which, when Joined to Jackson's force gave the Confederates an overwhelm ing advantage in numbers as well as position. General Averell, down In the valley, commanded the Union troops, consist' Ing of tba Second. Third and Eighth Virginia and tha Kourtenth Peansyl racla Cavalry, CoL Schoonmakera leglment. Tha Coufixlerales had what they considered an Impregnable position but no position was too strong for tha daring of Averell's men. The Fourteenth Pennsylvania Cavalry Ua.lt ery P and an Independent battal ion crpt up and occupied a position to tbe left, while Itattery G was oa tha extreme right. The Second, Third and Eighth advanced In front. Tba men crept op the mountainside, through briars, over rocks and treetops, until w ithin about fifteen yards of the crest of tbe mountain, when the Confeder ates opened fire, and a sheet of flame showed wbera their musketry was Vourlcg at terrific leaden hail Into our lines. Over the breastworks tha bluecoatj clambered, heedless of the murderous f re. Then It was every man's duty to seek such shelter as could be found. CapC Bllllngsley of California, Pa ; Major Barclay of Haielwood and tha lata Noah Messenger of Johnatown had maty hearty laugh aterward at having all tried to And protection back of ona tree. Juat at the tim It wasn't so funny. Piles of rails protected tha Confederate sharpKhooters on tha ei treme left Particularly harassing waa tha Bra from five mountain howitzers, which cam a from the same direction. William Stelnaker. Orderly Sergeant f Company I. Second Virginia, a as wlda awake and very active that day. If you should visit him In bis borne in Allegheny and ba should recall that day It may b be would tell you tha a lory as I have heard It many ttiuaa. This Is as he told It at Beverly after tba battle was over: "You sea, tboae mountain howitzers wrer doing pretty bad work. Out In tba opaa I saw a little deserted wood chopper' shaaty. Tba door was cn the side facing the Johnnie. I thought if I could get In there I wonld ba protected and. could pick off tha runner at ease, ao I sprinted over. It wa about a hundred yards. Dash ing Into the shanty I was confronted ty five Confederate soldiers, who evi dently bad tha same thoughts as I bad. Ixrd! ny balr stood straight tip on my head till It ralaed my rsp off. There ws only ona thing to do. ao 1 shouted Surrender!' and. to my matement. they all banded over their funs and t marched the Ave In frout nf ma. prlwmrrs. bark to our lines." Porgt. StelnskT, althoueh not a large man, :iicd a very giant In bat t!. never sec-mlng to know tbe mean ing of the weird fear. Ueiit. A.

Pittsburg Pis patch. A Critical Minut in Battle. "One story," salt the Georgia ser geant, "calls up anntht-r. in all the talk about Kencnaw no one has re ferred to what took p'sce wit Mo the Codfedi-rste lines at the moment when the Union troops seemed on the point of breaking over the breastworks at tha dead knicle. on t'hfai sin's hill. Juat MK'iK.k's brlgsd received tha heaviest Are of tha Confederate Itn. In their Immediate front the Confeder ates to the right of the angle bruk nd tha men were moving to the rear when Major Smsrt of a Georgia regi ment, coming up with re-.r!orcemcnts checked the panic. Tha men fared sialn to the front and took their plsces again hehlnat tba breastworks, where they remained. "The story was told that dsy thst aoma of the men of Maney'a brigade heard that the Federal had flanked tha Confederate position on tha left. ThJ word wa paased along the line, and there was, for a few minutes, something Ilk a panic. A Major P-mart ema up the retreating men ware assured that the Confederate rivalry bad checked tbe Caukiug mm s mm movement, snd tha line vu steady again. 1 thought of thla when I read of tha fight over tha work, tUa men coming no close that ft Union officer cstight bd ax froa one of our men nil carried It bark with him. Sup. poKe-the Union column that pi rated up close to tha work bad at nick tha point whore tbe Confederate broke, what would hav happened? "There wa a nilnul at tha crisis of that battle when the Union, troops, climbing tha Confederate work might bav Rone over on to tha backa of men retreating. The rhaoca went with the minute, however, and tha Union troopa at that very point were tba next minute met by murderous fire. The Incident Illustrate the fear our men had of Sherman' flacking opera tions. They had been flanked ao many time that they were looking for a flank attack that day, instead of tbe furious assault In front. Chicago Inter Ocean. From Cavalry ta Artillery. "The Second Ohio ravairy," said th Captain, "waa on the frontier In Sep tember, 1862, when Gen. Blunt decid ed he wanted a battery. He detailed thirteen men from each company ol the Second cavalry and formed what was afterward known a tha Twenty fifth Independent Ohio battery. Th men. receiving guna and equipment, went to active service at once, and th adventures of the cavalrymen trans formed Into artillerymen came thick and fast. "For eiample. Private Jame A Russell, armed only with a revolver dropped out one day to look for water In going through a com fluid ha wai halted by two rebel acout. who, wit! rifles at a ready, demanded hi ur render. Russell raised his revolve) and all Bred at once. The rebel! missed their mark, while Russel biased away until ha bad disable both hla antagonists and receivee their surrender. Then he procured i conveyance and took bis two prison era Into camp. "In one of its long marches In th 8oothwet the battery crossed th Ourk mountains la midwinter act wa water-bound at tha crossing o: White river. The river wa seventy five feet wide, fifteen feet deep, an the current wa very rapid. Then was no boat large enough to carry even one gun a iwi and It wa da elded to make a raft or boat. Tb wagon boxes were lasbed together covered with tarpaulins, and rath were used for decking. When the raft vn completed and loaded, tba prob lent was bow to get a line across "Several plans were suggested an tried. First a man started across ii a dug-out. Tba boat was swampe and tba msn was rescued with dif flrulty. A man tried to rlda a horss acrott and failed. Then a Una wai lied to a mule's tall and an attempt was mad to drive tbe tnu'e. riderless across to tha other aide. The niul Isnded on eur side of tha river and, basttg driven bark, went off dow stream, tine and all. At last Uaut J. 1. Hsdley attached a line U as empty caae-sbot and fired tt from on of the guns. I "Tbe shot fl-dlng lodgment oa tb other side, a man swam across. atde4 by tha line, made tt secure and tb whole battery waa ferried arrow without tha lost of ft single article ol equipment. Officer snd men were a elated over the achievement that when all were safely across they fired a salute. Tha battery had many tips and down, but ws finally recognise a one of the regular Ohio orgsnlia tlons, although there was a row ovei our not returning to the Secood r airy " Chicago Inter Ocean. Carried Hi Tunnl With Him. "Gen. Sherman waa In tha habit o. accomplishing such great things with such little loss of time that he won s remarkable reputation among tha Con federates for overcoming difficulties.' remarked Gen. W. K. Clark of th Army of tha Tenpesaa to ft report ci for tha Washington Star. "The general had soma cf th best nUi-. ra In th business with him. ami whenever a road or bridge was te be Constructed It was to be dona In a hurry. When ha wanted a bridge bull! he Jua sent out Gen.

"I remember one time cn th cam paign to th sea tha , Confederates w-re planning to blow up a tunnel thst Gen. Sherman wa intending to usa. Tha matter was discussed by tha 'Johnnies,' and one of tha officers remarked that he thought tha blow ing up of the tunnel would ba aa effec tive move, when another officer, who appreciated Gen. Sherman's ability to surmount obstacles, said: "Whst's tha usa of blowing up tha tunnel? Sherman carries tunnels right slong w 1th hliu.' " Ths Nt Encampmant. Gen.
