He was with his company, musket in hand, and passed uuharaied through that unfor tunate and disa,trous engagement. His regiment is said to have behaved with great coolness and gal lantry. On the organization of the 46th Regiment X. C. Troops, Mr Weir was elected to the second lieuten natcy in the company of Capt. McAlUter from Ran dolph coimty. His regiment was sent from Camp Mangum to Uoldboro', where they drilled fora few weeks and, thence, they were ordered to the vicinity ofbrury's Blurt. They reached there only a short tiuie before the commencement of the succession of di-eadiul but brilliant engagements before the Con federate Capital. Iieut. Weir s regiment was or dered acrosthc river after the battles commenced, and w as kept in the reserve corps during the fights. They underwent -oine long and severe marches, find were under some terrific cannonades, but were not at any time in a close musket engagement. As the glorious army ol the South moved on to ward Maryland, over .Slaughter Mountain, across the liappahannock, and to the far-famed plains of Manassas, his regiment, marching in the rear, was not in any engagemen:, until Harper's Ferry was reached. There his regiment had the honor of par ticipating in the reduction of that stronghold of the foe and in causing the large forces there to capitu late That wa- truly .glory enough lor the brave besiegers '.

The air was lirally rent with the whistling minie and musket-balls, and the fuse of heaiing had almost been destroyed by the de ifeiiing. cra-hin. stunning roar of the red artil lery. The blood of his brave acsocinfS in arms ! was :! .living lont-ath his feet, and Death was filling f 'lie air with the piteous groans of his victims.
