A writer from Nashville, Tenn.,
eende the folloning ineideot of tbe
battle ol Murfreesboro, in which
tbe eurviring members of the old
Fifth Georgia ftegimont are inter

scene presented to their gazo as
they emerged from that clamp of
dedal*. Tbe article is as follows;
History lies mentioned many an
not of a eubaltera, which, played
in an impoitunt pnrt in battle,
made mark on the day's events,
At tho battle of Stone liivcr, De
cember 31, 1802, 1 had the honor
to be ordinance officer on the staff
of Geo. I,. H- Itouasean, Third
Division of Gon. Thomas’ corps.
When the troops mnrchetl on that
morning, I had my train uf wagon*
loaded with ammunition for email
arm* and artillery well in hand
nnd moved toward the front, I
roaobed an eminence, where I for
n moment halted to allow the rear
wagons to come np. I took this
opportunity to rido in various
directions over the ground to aeo
if I could And aomo less prominent
point to move them to, for I knew
they would be e mark for lho cne
ray if they aaw them. A few mo-
ments aatisfled me that 1 must
move into aome hollow, and I start
ed towards my wagons for thu
pnrposo. All this time tho sounds
of battle in tho direction the troops
had moved, over in tho woods
toward tho right of the army,
seemed to bo approaching rapidly,
Gen. Hottaaentt, accompanied ity
otto orderly, galloped out of the
coders followed by a battery. I
flew to him end said:
’’General, shall I plant that bat
tery where my wagons are?”
After a glaneo ho aaid;
“Do it instantly, and iay to thu
commander 1 will rally a support
lo him.”
I met the commander gallnpiug

The other dsy whon old Major

"It's a mother Hubbard, Joems.'
"Air you goto' to wear it to

Why, certainly; Jcoms. The
mother Hubbard Is all tbe fashion

"Well, I'm glad to know it,* 1 the

I get ready and we’ll go."
The old man went out Ittto the
kitchen, took a couple of meal
saoks, cut tho bottoms out sewed
the tops together and put thorn in

returned, bis wife ottered a loud
cry of aetoniabment,and exclaimed:
"Great goadoos, Jecm«, what's

"You'rt not goin’ to wear them

pointed out the bird. I saw it

when he told mo he was a school-*

"I'll guarantee," continued the
speaker, "that three out of evory
