5 L. DEATH AT FRANKLI ABat‘lein Which Thirteen Confed- erate Generals Where Shot. Philadelphia Times. It was the 30th of November, 1864 At4 o’clock in the afternoon the line of battle was formed Stewart on the nght, Cheatnam on the left, their nght and lett flanks, hke Parthian shields, composing the center. Gen. Stephen D. Lee’s corps was held in reserve. Cle- purne’s position was in the center, his division formed im three battle lines and he at its head. Thus ar- ranged, Hood's line was nearly two miles long advancing, curved like a Mossulman’s cimetar with the blade tothe foe. Butlet us follow Cle- burne. Bugles were blowing, drums beating and bands playing Acouric: dashed up to Cleburne’s presence and soon the word -At tention !”" was g1yen, then **Forward, march !’’ and the column passed over ahiil and through the little skirt of woods. Soon they emerged into an open field and steadily they passed on with ‘“‘proper cadence’’ toward the rampart of blood and death. The Federal batteries began toopen Fitst came selid shot booming over the earth and tearing and crashing through the tanks; then the shriek- ing shells flew through the air on the wings of destruction. bustiag under and above and around the men, and at every explosion unbinding more evils than ever flew from Pandora’s box. Twilight was coming on. “Forward, men!’’ was repeated all along the fine. A living sheet of fire was poured their ranks. But the men pressed forward until the terrific roar ran from center to flank, from wing to wing. into Night came and t he twe armies ("" ‘ | retired trem the field, and no new | fought like two blind giants in des- Cleburne’s old war-cry pair. rang out above the din of arms: ‘‘Fol- low me, boys!”? Once again, and again, and again, seven times, Cle- burne’s division, and indeed all of Hood’s army, charged the breast- works. And once again, audagain, and again, seven times, were they were repulsed. Every time they formed and reformed under a most galling fire. At one time, just af- ter dusk, Cleburne captured 2 por- tion uf the works and turned the guns ofa ¥ederal battery on their former moments—a little silver rift. in battle clouds thatenveloped him in -darkness. It was the hottest fire Ueburne had ever met. It was but one stream; ot blazinghell. Confed- trates were on one side ot the breast works and Federals on the other. Men fell flat on their faces and fired irom behind the bodies of their dead comrades. Dead soldiers filled the imtrenchments. Blowd made the earthas slippery as an ice-pund. Thus the fire was kept up until af- ter midnight, and gradually died out. But both The Contederates passed the mght Where they were, just outside breastworks.

This less | than three years ago—and now the | honoris going a begging. Nobody | wants it. Al the old aspirants have was ones have come torward to take their places. The expianationof the ex- traordinary generesity with which all other great men in tne party waive their claims in favor of Senator Ed- munds is that the nomination will be barren and worthless, and this is the explanation, teo, of the Verment senater’s reluctance to receive it. When a thing has lost 1ts value every bedy is willing that some one else shall haye it.
