JLL OF ’EM TO 3E SHOT,
Says Gen. Wilson, Unless Bet
ter Conduct Is had.
Macon, Ga., Nov. 21. —Satur-
day, night at 9 o’clock it was re
ported to the commandant of
the provost guard that a large
body of the Sixth Virginia col
ored volunteers, who had been
in a riotous mood at Crump’s
park all day, had determined to
come to town with arms and re
lease some of their comrades
from the guard house.
Maj. Logan promptly sent to
the Third engineers for ro-en
forcemenl, and Capt Stickney,
■with company C. was sent to his
assistance. Hardly had they
reached the city when the re
ports became more-frequent and
alarming as to the threatening
of the colored troops, and Colo
nels Biddell and Cecil, of Gen.
Wilson’s staff', wqre sent out to
summon Col. Gilliard and the
remaining companies of the
Third engineers to go at once to
the eamp of the Sixth Virginia
and take full control of the situ
ation. The order reached the
camp a - 11 p. m.
Col. Gilliard, whois a regular
army officer with much experi
ence immediately ordered the
proper calls sounded and in a
brief time had the regiment un-
der arms,.
Ammunition Io the amount of
twenty rounds'per man was dis
tributed and the regiment, led
by the colonel, was on the
march. Orders were given that
no noise of unnecessary kind be
made and the march to the col
ored camp was made so quietly
that very few of the citizens on
the wav knew that a regiment
was passing by fully armed and
determined to preserve the pub
lic peace.
The Third .engineers is a suf—
perb body of sbldDrs, recruited
from the best material in the
sixteen Southern states, and
drilled to a finish in all the
work enquired of regular sol
diers. ‘Gbn. Bates has said of
| them that “they are more like
regulars than any other regi
ment in the army.” • >.
They are i prompt, obedient
and fearless in the discharge of
their duties and the citizens
wherever they are stationed can
rely upon their dignified bear
ing and their ability tc protect
every interest confided to their
care.
Not only were the engineers
prepared for handling the riot
ous soldiers, even to deadly bat
tle, but Dr. jSchuelke, the sur
geon, had two ambulances, op
erating cases and attendants
with the command to look after
those who might happen t ’
wounds or other casualties.
Col. Gaillard marched rapidly
to the scene of trouble and
had the regiment covering the
campin all directions before the
colored troops realized that they!
were being surrounded and held»
in arrest. Many of (the, colore'l
soldiers were already in bed,
but the w entire command was or
dered into line and ordered to
stack arms in front of the com-'
■ ■
panics. « j
Much amazed at this turn of}
affairs and somewhat dazed by,
the sight of a stern array of
white soldiers all about them, I
the colored men stacked their
guns and found the entire regi
ment under arrest and guard.
Six hundred and twenty-nine
I guns were loaded into the empty
. wagons brought along by the
■ engineers and were hauled back
to their camp.
The Third battalion of engi
i nee r s, under Major Ornum, was
; left in charge or the camp, with
sentinels on all the lines, sup
. planting those of . the Virginia
. regiment. • ,
The Second'Ohio was'also or
) dered out andVfhe Fifth im r
. rinines put under arms to be
used in any emergency beyond'
i the power of the engineers to.
f control. /
s The situation lot ked desperate
i for a few hours, but the prompt
. action taken and the cool and
t rapid work of the troops intrust
r ed w th the delicate work soon
diss pated all danger.
a The engineers returned to
their camp, except the battalion
.on guard, at 4 :50 a. m. and
went back to bed as quietly as if
- they had only taken a practice
i spin down the road. At present
r the situation is that of peace
> and safety.
Exit The Razor.

A company has been incorpor

promise that they will put upon
the market a certain kind of lath-
