One Of the poet a. by unanlaioua vote, has passed very bitter reaolutlone condemnina Cong res, and others are preparing to do the same thing.

Copies of these reeolu tione are to be sent broa (Toast to Grand Army posts Kast and West, in hope that they may take similar action, and thus do something In the way of creating senti ment In the Northern States, which wlU Injure those naembere of the two Houses who fsiled toioppoee the Joint resolution.

A R. post lhat has acted that Cougreeer "smugglel" the Joint resolution through, the country and esrtavlally the: veteraiie Of the civil war, not knowing that It was up for consideration, or that there was any serious thought of passing it. Tjhls Is a mistake.

There waa no The Joint resolution was Introduced early In the eeaaion and referred In reerular order to the appropriate committee lr each House, which considered it. and in the end made a favorable report Thee reports were printed in. full, as is always tha case with such rtrattera, and it waa not until several weeka afterward that a vote was called for. And after the Joint resolution had gone through one House there was an interval, of several days before it cavme to a vote In the other. In Congress are still a good many civil war veterans who knew that tbe Joint resolution was coming to a vote, and that sentiment strongly favored Its passage.

Not one of them raised his voice by way of protest, and It is rather significant that when the vote was taken the formality of a roll call was dispensed with in each House, there betcx no opposition from any quarter. May Demand Hearing. It Is not believed here that the a. A. R.

There were twelve Republican membej a of the House military committee in the last Cotigress. and of the number seven were born too late to lave any participation In the war.

for several years, been highway engineer for 4he Stute. of Maryland. The office of public roads Is a subdivision of the Department of Agriculture. As the interest In (rood roads haa Increased throughout the nation thla office haa put special, agents in the field to collect and disseminate useful Information regarding roads and road building. For convenience the United States has been laid out Into four main divisions, with a apacial agent in each.

Mr. Johnson will have general supervision of the good roads work of the department. In a general wav the department Is working to secure the adoption of what: is called the State aid plan in all the commonwealths, lender this plan a State rentes highway commission and makes an annual appropriation from the State treasury to pay a nxed part of the expense of building good roads, tbe balance of the cost to lm met by the Counties and towns nnd the owners of property lying along Improved roada. The new Government highway engineer come to his new work with much experience behind him. Before he became highway engineer for the State of Maryland he was at the head of the Massachusetts hlghVay commission.

Gettysburg, the Wilderness, ay even Including that first fierce baptism of fire at Munussaji no action in which I ever partlolpitd xhould remain so clearly photographed upon memory as this lat desperate struggle for supremacy In the Shenandoah. Kvery minute detjiil of the conflict, at least so far as .1 chanced to be a personal participant, rises before me as I write, and I doubt not 1 could trace to day each step taken upou that stricken field The reveille had not sounded when I Hret awoke, and. rolling from my blanket, looked about me. Already a faint, dim line of grav. heralding the dawn, was growing clearly denned in the east, and uiuklng manifest Ihmie heavy fog hanks which, hanging dank and low.

obscured the valley. The tired men of my troop were vet lying upon the ground, wrapped tlghtlv in their blankets, oblivious to the deadlv work before them; but I 'could hear the horses already moving uneasily at thflr picket ropes, and observed here and tlurre the chilled figure of a sentry leaning upon his gun. oddly distorted in form bv the enveloping mist. IM recti In advance of where we rested, a long' hill sloped gently upward for perhapa a hundred yards, its crest topped with a thlca growth of young (ink tre, vet seemingly devoid of underbrush. troops were camped In our immediate front, and feeling curious, to ascertain something of our formation, as well as to examine ihe lay of Jhe land between us and the position occupied by the enemy.

I walked slowly forward, unhindered, until 1 attained the crest. Numberless birds were singing amid the branches overhead, while the leaves of the low buahex I panned on my way were glistening with dew. Except for tlioso lcng rows of sleeping soldiers. I seemed utterly alone within some rural solitude upon a quiet Sabbath morning. Not an unwonted sound reached me to make discord; so quiet, indeed, was all the earth that 1 became startled by tbe sudden chatter of squirrel disturbed at my approach, and.

unthinkingly. 1 stooped to pluck a delicate pink flower blooming In the grass, and placed it in a ragged button hole of my old gray Jacket.

The intervening ground sicpecl so gently forward, while the mil crrst was so thickly crowned with trees, it looked an ideal position from which to advance in line of attack. Upon my right there appeaed a break In the solidity of our line.

ut even as I noted it, wondering at the oversight, the dense front cf an infantry column debouched from a ravine and. marching steadily forward. ft i led the gap. I could distinctly mark the wearied manner In which the men composing it flung themselves prostrate on the hard ground the moment they were halted doubtless all through the long hours uf the black night they had been lolling on to be in time. Aids were galloping furiously now among the scattered commands.

The obscuring fog slowly rose from off the face of the valley, but all the central portion remained veiled from view. Suddenly, as I watched, the brown cloud beneath me was reft asunder here and there by little spits of fire, and it waa curious to observe how those quick, spiteful darts of flame swept the full length of my vista, I could distinguish no reports it was too far away but realized that the opposing pickets had caught sight of each other through the gloom. Then a big gun boomed almost directly opposite me. Its name seeming like a red hot knife rending the mist. Thla had barely vanished when a sudden cheer rang out upon my I left, and I turned in time to behold tt thin, scattered line of array clad infantrymen swarm down the steep Blope into the valley.

With hats drawn low. and guns advanced, they plunged at a run into the mist and dimppenred Our skirmishers had gone in the ball had opened. I had tarried long enough; any moment now might bring "boots and saddles," and I possessed the slightest desire for a breakfast to fight on, it behooved me to get back within our lines. The memory of that animated scene in front etlll fresh upon me. how quiet and commonplace everything appeared down there In the hill shadow.

No one would have dreamed it to be a battle line. The fires crackled gayly. while the men lounged about them, smoking or eating. There was no sound save the gentle rustling of leaves overhead, or the light laughter of some group of story tellers. Horses munched their grain just at our rear, and now and then some careful trooper eauntered beck to make sure his mount was not neglected.

One or two of men were cleaning thefr revolvers, and an old corporal was polishing his aber where a spot of rust disfigured its gleaming blade. You might have dreamed it a picnic, a military review possibly.

The battery to left of us went Into action, and bo fen rtring rapidly: we could mark the black figures of the cannoneers at the nearest guns, outlined aaalnst tbe sky over the crest, as they moved quickly back and forth. Twice they bore motionless bodies to the rear, and laid them down tenderly beyond the fierce xone of the Are. Then the heavier pieces of artillery farther down the line Durst into thunder, and we silently watched a large force of Infantry move slowly past us up the long slpe until they halted in the line of battleyjust behind us summit, the advanced Kes lying Tat upon their faces and peering over.

there, echoed joyously from Up to lip, the kindling eyes ana rapid movements voiced unmistak ably the soldier spirit. We moved west ward down the long, bare slope in the sunshine, through a half doxen deserted, desolate fields, and along a narrow, rocky defile leading Into a deep ravine. Every step of our horses brought us cloeer to that deep roar of surging battle; the air we breathed became pungent with powder sraoae, ana once or twice we neara the deep hurrah of the North, the wild answering yell of the South, as victory rolled from flag to flag Streams of wearied and wounded men began to pass WMie racea and terror stricken. er haggard and silent, but all alike seeking tbe rear. Tbe head of our advancing column pushed them sternly aside, the troop ers caamng me uninjured without mercy, but tender as women to those who suffered.

At the mouth of tbe ravine we came forth Into the broad valley, and halted. Just In front of us. scarcely a half mile distant, were the nghtrng lines, partially enveloped in dense sraoke.

This area tbe hardest work of war, that' silent agony which tried men in helplees bondage to unyielding discipline. I glanced anxiously along the front of my troop, bat they required no word from me; with tightly set lips, and pale, stern faces, they held their line steady as granite, closing up silently tha ragged gape torn by plunging balls.

"But we may have it easy enough, after all It seems to be an infantry affair." He shook his head gravely. "No." he said, pointing forward, "tbey will need us now. As he spoke It seemed as though tne sharp firing upon both sides suddenly ceased by, mutual consent. The terrible rotir of small arms, which had mingled with the continuous thunder of great guns, died away into an intermittent rattling of musketry, and as the heavy smoke slowly drifted upward Jn a great white cloud, we could plainly distinguish the advancing Federal lines, three ranks deep, stretchinar to left and right In one vast.
