Being a convalescent, unwell even from the iM'ginning of the trip, there* were many things ami some important towns of which I was not aide to learn much. So my Nay w ill lie short, unintcrest mg and disappointing, perhaps, in many particulars. Although u siek man, the trip was troth pleasant and interesting to the writer,and I join w ith many others to thank those clever gen llcmeu, meuiltora of the 7th Gu. regiment, who made the arrange on Isjth sides is lieautifol. The narrow bottom lands were decked with tine looking corn, and the hillsides lent lx;auty and appre ciation to the scene, lieing covered with tine apple orchards. Emerg ing from this gap, a charming panorama of level, fertile lands, extending many miles in every direction, greeted our vision, cov ered with harvested wheat, clover anil tine fields of growing corn,and apple orchards ludened with lruit. This is by far the finest looking country through which we passed. In some places, fields of fine corn lined the road for several continu ous miles on tioth sides. Much rain had l»een falling, which had damuged the wheat. We sjKMit the 21st on the his toric battlefields of first and second Manassas. Here the famous Henry house stands. The proprietress, a woman of much nerve and patriot ism, was killed by a bomb from the enemy. She was an invalid when killed. One of her grand sons still lives and owns this his toric, farm. It was quite interest ing to visit, see and stand on the very spots where our fathers and brothers of the gallant 7th fought in ’<>1 and ’02, and to view the identical places where some of our liest men anil brave heroes loll in defense of their home and where (Jen. T. J. Jackson stood when Gen. .Bee, of 8. t'., said vividly, “Look! There is Jackson standing like a stonewall.” We saw the stone house that wus made famous and historic by the scenes enacted around it in those perilous war times. It stands only a short dis tance from the Henry house. All ternoon, the 150th.

Va., (ought 5 or 6 miles northwest of the town of Manassas, on the 21st of July, 1801; the second Manas -as battle was fought on"the 20th sud .HOt-h of August, 18d2. Both ot these were complete victories planted in peach trees that look speech ot the occasion was deliver ed by that ripe scholar and worthy gentleman anti ex-Confederate sol dicr, Prof. J. K. Pendergrast- The speeches consisted chiefly of rein, iniscenees of the civil war, and the loyalty of the Southern people to the fiag since the war, ami best interest of our prosperous country. Prof. Pendergrast is thoroughly southern and democratic, in his. practical life, unil his retqqrk^ were sensible and conservative. After the speech-making, we were greeted with u most excellent early Thursday morning, but saw only u little of it, us there' was only a short stop made t here. But some of us remember w ith ers in private boarding houses and hotels, though a few proceeded on to Washington, 1>. Friday evening, where they took in the capital city for t wo days. Satur day was a rainy.day, but we spent it in Washington, taking in the sights of that most beautiful and magnificent city in many respects, in the world, undaunted by the continuous down pour. We had heard much of this beautiful, at tractive city, but the hall had not lieeu told us. After seeing some of it, from a general view and giv ing some places a closer inspection tliun others, we too decided it was a most wonderful city. All the public buildings of note were visited. Owing to our limited time and the facilities at our com mand on u rainy day, we saw anti learned but little, comparatively, of the beauties and interesting places unil things of this magnifi cent city. We resolved if possible to visit it again in the future. We traveled by electric car from Al exandria to Washington. Late Saturday afternoon we visited Mount Vernon by Itoat, on the wide, placid waters ot the Po to mac. On our return some of us stop ped off at Alexandria, where we had left our cars, others returned to Washington, where they re- 1 mainod Saturday night and Sun day. A few visited Baltimore.on Sunday. A majority of our com pany remained in Alexandria, where we attended divine services on Sunday. The writer attended Christ’s Church, Episcopal, and occupied, during services, with eleven others, Washington’s pew . it still has its ancient form, a square. Gem R. E. lice’s pew was pointed out to us, but nobody wus allowed to occupy it. We were* entertained by a most learned and excellent gospel sermon by Rev. Mr. Wilber, the pastor. The reception given by the Daughters of the Confederacy, in our honor in their own hall, dur ing our stay in Alexandria was,in deed, very nice in every respect. Refreshments were distributed to the guests by a quartette of polite anti beautiful young ladies. Be fore the banquet was over, one could perceive who was the ruling j spirit umong the entertaining la dies. It. was Mrs. Alexander, to whom the writer was afterwards i intrqduced by her husband. Yes, they were the prince and princess that gave zest to the occasion. With this princess, a.person was made to feel the presence of a lady possessing superior qualities of mind and soul. Fortunate is any home, town or community having such polished and worthy charac ters. Alexandria is a-gootl old sub stantial city of about 15,000 iu habitants, w ho seem, to some ex tent,. commercially to be asleep, or resting in the lap of past accom plishments and historic glories. However, we believe these Alex andrians like “those of old,” arc a thrifty, good and charitable peo pie. (To tie continued ) THE STORE 2b f/teTr. DEPOT ST.
