MOSBY’S war reminiscences. How Robertson’s Disobedience Pre cipitated Gettysburg. From the Boston Herald. Col. Join l S. Mosby, the noted Confeder cavalry commauder, wliose dash and flan made his name so famous during the rJi an j whoso literary ability in rocount . ’jji s exploits and experiences has since Sven to their recital such vivid interest, has a it his war reminiscences into book ? orrn and the volume, of over 250 Ljjcs will be issued bv Messrs. Ikoree A Jones & Cos., of this city, on m'-ivo as the (irst complete account ever wanted of Alosby’s dashing career, it will be aieerly read, and the following extracts, dealing with the movements which precipi tated the collision at Gettysburg—where neither side had premeditated fignting—of tae two great armies of the Potomac and Norto n Virginia, cannot fail aro prove es pecially interesting. 1 Stuart had notv received his final instruc tions from Gen. Lee, authorizing him to niove into Maryland, around the rear of the enemy and between him and Washington. He was likewise instructed to do them all the damage he could on his way. With his transportation destroyed and communica tion broken, Hooker would be'seriously em barrassed in pureuiug Gen. Lee, or probably forced to fall back for supplies, or to de fend the capital against this demon stration. In the meantime, while Hooker was thus delayed, the Con federate would have been levying contributions on tho farmers in Pennsylva nia' His original plan, which was bold in conception and perfectly practical in execu tion was thwarted by an event winch he could not control. It was obvious now that Hooker would not initiate any movement, but would coniine himself to covering the capital and observing his adversary. It was equally plain that when the Confeder ate army made a move west of the Blue Kidge, liooker would make a corresponding one in’the east. It was, therefore, all im portant for the success of Stuart’s movement that the status quo of the two armies should he preserved until he could get through Hooker’s army to tho river, when it would be too late for Hooker to take any step to defeat it. The distance was not more than twenty-six miles to the Potomac from the point where he would enter Hooker’s lines; and this could lie got over between sunrise and sun down, as no intended to march in throe par allel columns. He Knew the country well, and the position of each corps; and it would have been easy enough for him to flank them. Before Pleasanton could have got ready to follow the blazing meteor it would have been out of sight. The three brigades that were to accompany Stuart were quietly withdrawn from Pleasanton's front on the evening of June 24 and marched in a south erly direction to their rendezvous at Sa lem. Those of Jones and Robertson were put in the position they had held about Mid dleburg, and, of course, were charged with the ordinary duty of cavalry on u post of observation. As Gen. Stuart says in liis re port, “Robertson’s and Jones’ brigades, un der command of the former, were left in ob servation of the enemy, on the usual front (about Middleburg), with full instructions as to following Of the enemy in case of withdrawal, and joining our main army.” An order to a cavalry officer to “observe” an enemy of course implies that he is to report what he sees; otherwise there is no ise iu his observing. Stuart left behind A FORCE OF OVER 3,000 CAVALRY, which ivas amply sufficient for every pur pose. By daybreak, on the morning of the 25th, his column debouched through Glass cock’s Gap, in the Bull Run, and proceeded toward Haymarket. It seems that when Stuart got there he found the roads on which he intended to march that day oc cupied by Hancock’s corps that had broken up camp that morning, and was moving to ward the Potomac. I could not find out where Stuart was, nor he where I was. So 1 ret ratted my steps and weut n to Pennsylvania through the Shenan doah valley, passing Gen. Robert son’s demand, that was quietly resting in Ashby’s and Snicker’s gaps, in the Blue Ridge, after the enemy retired on the 36th. Pleasanton that day had moved by his flank, across Gen. Robertson’s front, to Leesburg, to cover the crossing of Hooker’s army. Why he should have halted and re mained idle three days in the gaps of the Blue Kidge in Virginia after both armies had marched into Pennsylvania is a mys lery that has never been satisfactorily ex plained. If there were any sound military reasons for his staying there throe days, there were equally as sound ones for his not leaving at all. His proper position was on Gen. Lee’s flank, next to the enemy, in order to protect his real- and keep him in formed of their movement. If Gen. Robertson had then, in obedience to Gen. Lee’s and Stuart’s instructions, promptly followed the the enemy along the mss of South Mountain through Boonsboro, She Confederate cavalry might easily have reached Gettysburg in advance of the Fed eral troops. In tins event, there would not have been the accidental collision of armies. Gray Lee would not have fought a defensive battle, and Gettysburg might have been to Southern heart* something more than “a glorious field of grief.” Even as it was, btu&rt s movement around his rear had so Confused Gen. Meade that his army was more Battered than ours, and two of his corps, iu _ , first day’s fight, were caught in delicto jud crushed. He was looking for Lee on the Susquehanna, when, in fact, be was concen trating on Gettysburg. On account of Hancock’s unexpected Movement Stuart had been compelled to Bake a wider circuit than he had intended, mm did not cross the Potomac until the ignt of the 27th, the day after Hooker got ' er - He thence moved northerly toward tt Susquehanna to put himself on Ewell’s p *,v ln accordance with the instructions of ven. Lee. But, owing to THE DERANGEMENT OF HIS PLANS, I the advance of the Union army, without uen.

But kobertson’s command had not even then ,*°* e U P- This movement of Stuart’s •round the rear of Hooker's armv has been ndemned by Gen. Long, the military sec retary and biographer of Gen. Lee, as hav g been undertaken either “from misap prehension uf his instructions, or love of the •>ii \ bo ! and raid” (which, of course, ira f"® disobedience of orders); and Gen. hongstreet says that as he was leaving tho owe Ridge he instructed Stuart to follow •t ou °T n '’alley and cross the Potomac but that Stuart replied at he had discretionary powers from Gen.

In either case, ... y'retiring the river v<m must move on 0 right of Ewell’s troop, ool i,y,nP ‘"formation. provision*, etc.” In a .tJ* bi Ht.uort, dated June 22, ho had said: i , *i’ U "and timt he is moving northward, nA I™l 1 ™ 1 two brigades can guard the Blue ***d take euro of your rear, you con move with the other three into Maryland and take position on Gen. Ewell's right, place yourself in communication with him, guard his flank and keep him informed of the enemy’s movements and collect all the supplies von can for the use of tho army. One column of Gen. Ewell's army will probably move toward the Susquehanna by the Emmetsburg route, another by Cnambersburg.” THE INTENTION OF GEN. LEE clearly was that Stuart with one portion of the cavalry was to guard Ewell’s Sank and give him information of the enemy. The other was to be left behind, us he says in his report, “to hold the mounsain passes as long as the enemy remained south of the Poto mac.” To supixise that Gen. Lee intended them to remain there after the enemy had gone is to suppose that he was not only unlit to command an army, but even a corporal's guard. He would not have committed the blunder of marching all his infantry into Pennsylvania knowing that his cavalry was in Virginia. lie must, therefore, have ex pected for Stuart to cross the Potomac on the same day to the east of the ridge, which he would have done but for Hancock's movement. Since the above was written, I have found in the archives of the war office a copy of Stuart’s orders to Gen. Robertson when leaving Virginia; but he does not ap pear to have been iu the least governed by them. He was instructed to watch the enemy and report their movements through a line of relay couriers to Gen. Longstreet, and when the enemy withdrew, to harass his rear and impede his march, and fol low on the right of our army. There seems to have been no effort made to execute these orders; for both Gens. Lee and Longstreet say that no intelligence having been re ceived through the cavalry of Hooker’s crossirfci the Potomac, it was sup posed he was still south of it; while Pleasanton says that he never had a skirmish in retiring. If the preisure of the column of 8,000 cavalry with two batteries under Robertson hall been brought to bear on the flank of the Union army, its advance into Pennsylvania would have been less rapid, and Meade could not have spared two-thirds of his cav alry to send after Stuart to embarrass his march. If the force of cavalry which Stuart left behind him bad promptly moved in obedience to his orders on the 20th to place itself in position on the right of the army, then it could easily have occupied Gettysburg in advance of the enemy. It did nothing of the kind, but quietly rested three days at Ashby’s gap to learn through Gen. Lee where the enemy had gone. The professed historians of the war make no mention of these facts. Stuart is dead “O! for one hour of Dundee.” THE HAWAIIAN QUEEN. Her Majesty Kapiolani and Suite in San Francisco. From the San Fi-ancisco Chronicle. The long-expected steamer Australia ar rived early yesterday morning from Hono lulu, and was saluted by Fort Mason, Alca traz and H. B. M. ship Conquest, as she brought to this city Queen Kapiolani, of Hawaii, and her numerous retinue. The vessel was boarded by che port authorities and various press representatives before she docked, as the latter were anxious to catch a glimpse of her majesty ere she hedged herself in the impenetrability that surrounds royalty. The Queen was upon deck as the steamer came into port and was taking her first look at a large city through a pair of glasses. She had on an ulster of some warm grayish material, and though her face bore evidence of fatigue yet there was noticeable a kindly expression in her eyes which betokened a character of extreme gentleness. The Queen is a woman of about 40 years of age, of large size, stout in frame and vigorous of constitution, and her sympathetic cast of countenance makes her face attractive even to handsomeness. She is a woman of great generosity and enlightenment and has done all that lay in her power toward the allevia tion of those distressed with that terrible curse of leprosy. Through her exertions the Kapiolani Home for leper girls was founded, $15,000 being appropriated for that purpose by the Hawaiian Legislature in 1884. She also interests herself in the various public gardens, schools and hos pitals with which her kingdom is supplied. The Queen graciously received such gen tlemen as were presented to her, but the conversation was carried on through the medium of Her Royal Highness the Princess Liliuokalani, who, unlike tho Queen, speaks English fluently. Under the circumstances it cannot be expected that her majesty would have much to say, beyond that she felt some regret at haring left home, and that everything appeared strange to her, it being the' first time that she had ever left her native laud; and that her plans were as yet indefinite, but that she hoped to make a stay of about a week in Sim Francisco, and would then leave for New York, en route to England. On her arrival at the Palace Hotel her majesty and the lady mem here of her suite were ushered into the rooms which had been prepared for them, while the gentlemen of the party amused fhemselves by parading the corridors and recemng the congratula tions of the numerous ex-residents of Hono lulu who had congregated there to see them. The party is under the charge of Col. Curtis faukea, Governor of Oaku, and the King’s Chamberlain. Ha is a tall man, of soldierly appearance, with a light-brown complexion, a light moustache, expressive eyes and dignified manner. He said that the Queen, immediately on her arrival at the Palace Hotel, had sought the privacy of her rooms and had intimated that, for the day at least, she would be invisible to every body, as she wished to rest after the week’s voyage. “Yes,” said the Colonel, “it is, as the Queen has already told you, her first depart ure from home, and you know the peculiar sensations that attend people when for the first time they find themselves separated from the associations of childhood. But it has long been her ardent desire to see some thing of the world, and esjiecially to see England and her ruler. This, as you are aware, is the jubilee year in England, and Queen Kapiolani wishes to be present and pay her respects to the woman who rules one of the greatest empires in the world. It is not surprising that she should admire Eng land. There are many Englishmen in the emiloy of the Hawaiian government, and tluur conversation has naturally excited the curiosity of so enlightened a lady. •England though is not t he only objective point of the journey. We shall see as much of the United States as possible, and also of Europe.” “Yes,” continued the Colonel, “I have been abroad before. I was in Russia at the present Czar's coronation, and so all is not new to mo, My wife, you know, is one of tho ladies in waiting upon her majesty.” .Among the notable gentlemen of the party is Col. J. H. Boyd, who is Secretary to the Queen. He is a young man with English mutton-chop whiskers, and wore a light crush-hat, a frock coat and a pair of light colored pantaloons. Mr. Boyd found many old friends awaiting him ut the l’alaee Hotel, and seemed thoroughly at home. “Buchu-Paiba.” Quick, complete cure, all annoying kid ney, bladder and urinary diseases. sl.
