It aeems a long time sinra ISfll '05 to ba writing of that period, but to roe who was just old enough to remember tkoaw stirring times snd (till too young to be la the army, there ware both trag dir aad eoinrxllru trlilrh occurred that will .war rsinaia very vUia) is miud. I remember in the summer of IK60, In eompauiy with a grnttrman from our county, Brunswick- V4., the writer vis ited the Virginia Hprlngn, stopping at the different placet but staying longer at the Hot Hpringi then owned and kept by Hamufl (ioc.de, a brother of Mrs. T. Uoode, of Duffaloe Springs. The eonvrutiona had been held and nomiuee tions msde from President and Vies President of the I'nited Htatcs. Kt range as it may teem Mr. Gcxxle was a Kepub llcan and many hot disruaaions were had under the shad, of the trees in the little valley at the spring. Henator Yancey, of Mississippi, was there and a red hot secession demanded, snd they had many aontroverties on tin political issues of the day. It aaa generally conceded that If Lincoln should tie elected there wuuld be war. And by the way, the first car toon In a newaapr of political par ties ever seen by the writer appeared in a paper published at Petersburg, Va , and was si follow,: Four game rocks were made to represent the four par ties, via: Ureckinridge and Lane, South ern Iemoorats; Douglas and Johuson Western snd Northern Democrats; Ever ett and Dell, Whig, and Lincoln and Hamlin, Republican, or Abolition party. The Pouglas chicken wan standing on the) Bell chicken which he had killed, aad the others in their respective cor ner., while he was crowing "Ooek-a- TV.-J1. 1 'a--.

H. $4.00 Shoe1 FOR MEN Let Us Fit Yea la The Shape J18FayettvilleSt and I ran nhip the Lincoln rock and Old Kentm ky too." It struck me as something fine. It was gotten up by a country correspondent of the paper by the name of t'obb, Southampton county, Vs, who after the war went WeM and lieeame a noted journalist. 14 eiectioa in tka fall waa held and by a split ia the DeaaOcratie part laav coin was elected and the war anik In creased in heat until the spring when he took his seat, rkmth Carolina se ceded, captured Fort Sumter and the fight was on. Woll do I remember the call for volunteers and with what alacrity the response of the flower of the land to that call. They seemed to me to come from everywhere. Our good old county enrolled four companies of say seventy-five men each the Bruns wick Uuard, Brunswick Grays, the Brunswick Blues and the Ebenercr Grays. They pitched tents In their re spective sections and were drilled for a few weeks by competent officers, some of them V. M. I. men, and hurried to the front. The balance Is hietory. Now for the people at home. We were eonfl dent of whipping the Yankees in a few months at the most and knew nothing of the sorrows which were to follow, and yrt after the war breams a reality and some of the boy war. sent home dead or sorely wounded. There was but little gloom or despondency, and when some few would come home on furlough there was always a hearty welcome aad some diversion In the neighborhood picnic, barbecue or a dance or quilting. It Is not generally known that' all men working as many aa twenty hands war. exempt from aervic. ia the army, they tnere being many sack la our county and most of them old caea and dead game (porta. While the yonnger people were rl.tnclng the food old quadrille to tha must, of a food reentry fiddler three old men were having them a time playing poker for Confederate money. They ptnyed the game without Hmrt, had no chip, btrt pot up the hmg trtne on the table would as soon bet Ave hun dred on a hand aa to bat Ave and never wink. On. old gentlemaa carried hi notes in a little basket in which he put his winnings if h. was fortunate enough to win. Tha game waa then bluff, but there was but little bluffing, as any bet would be met with a eail for almost any amount aad the winner of the pot would pick Bp his winnings in package.. Along ia "63 aad tU began the time of scarcity of some of the neeeasitiee of life and la most Instances they were promptly met ky son. substitute which answered the purpoae. Hole leather was sot to be had aad the wooden bottom shoe for the Begroe. and some of th boy had to be need. They war. made by. the. community carpenter, heeled by the blacksmith with iron at heel and toe. aad ware warm and dry; aad the meat ludicrous occurrence I ever wtt euwed waa oa the soie leather quaetiea. Every county la thou days had what was known a aa offeoraer or section ia wklek the poorer 414414 lived 4a the section s wkea a soldier returned an furlough we war sore to hear of rrniitiBg' bstra dAaee aad sock. Every body went whe felt Inclined, aad en on. of then ulltia frolic-, ia th. mid, of the khasiag game and U. ----'-g aa aM fallow put his head In tha door and In voice which would have carried a half mile called up the host and In formed him that some one had cut off one of his saddle skirts if not both. Vou never saw such a getting out ia the dark and feeling of saddles, and you could bear the exclamations from all sides. "Well, he got mine, too"; and some party for tha purpose of half soleing shoes had actually cut off every saddle skirt of the party there. There was much hot talk, but It did bo good; the skirts were gone and could nut be replaced. Our county was often raided by Sheri dan, Wilson and other commands, hut we neeor hoard of any offense or indig nity being offered to ladies or any such outrage as they are doing across the waters. And in substantiation of tb above, on one of these raid I was stop ping at the home of a very wealthy widow lady. It was about dark when a strugglcr had come up to the house and was questioning the chamber-maid as to where the lady had hidden her silver, when up rode an officer dressed In black velvet with chevrons on his elcete denoting Ms office aa captain. Be caught this straggler by the nap. of his neck and proceeded to kick him down a long flight of steps and out into the road. He ram. back, apologised for his treatment to the man. Introduced him self, Capt. Kllicott- of Ellicoft City, Md., and mounting his hors rode off to his command. I thought he Was on. of the Knights of old, a very handsome man, and I hav. often wondered if ha got horn, alive after the war. Another Instance of freedom from plunder of the victorious army occurred at the same houso on th day that a division of Hhennan's army passed there after Johnson's surrender. 4 In the basement of the dwelling was about fifteen barrels of the beat appl. brandy distilled during th war, and soldier finding it out simply swarmed around the house. With 4 win pan (on irrt- tntw tlrw- t&mb mutt id -44 out in th.ir eantwns snd thy would a ooon pay Bv. dollar, for a quart and ask bo ehahge as to pay what 1 was worth, about twenty Ire cent. V. were simply foiaa to sell Out the whole tot and make th. lady rich, when ap rode aa officer who took ia th. aitanr tion. ordered the room closed aad locked, put a guard at the house aad telling us that if the mea got liquor they could not control them further on, of which we had not thought when we were coin ing the money, aad greenback looked mighty good to u.
