Reaching the earthworks we lald down and awalted orders. As far as could be seen to the right and left a line of fire now raged and rolled while the ground shook under our feet with the dreadful concus- slon of artillery and small arms, For two long hours this continued, much damage being Inflicted on both sides, and then the attack was abandoned. A crowmsing of the Ohattahochie was finally made on the 7th ot July, Johnston falling back to his last lines of fortifica- tions at Atlanta, His course was strongly condemned at Richmond and on the 19th he was relieved and Hood placed in com- mand of the rebel army. This change of leaderas was hailed with great satisfac- tlon by the union forces as they had a much higher regard for Johnston's abill- tles than for those of his successor, Hav- Ing been placed in command for the ex press purpose of fighting, Hood took the offensive at once, attacking Hooker, in our center, on the 20th, the army of the Tennessee on the following day.

In front of theee lines we dag holes theae feet deep and two feet acroes, and coverad them with krash so that thoy were completely concealed. Much hard work was required to accomplish this and as the weather was very hot the boys voted the whole business a humbug and were disposed to make light of that sort of strategy. They argued (in a earcastic way) that each hole would catch a Johnny and that all we would have to do would be to go out, thrust a bayonet through the rebs thus secured, throw them over ineide our maln works, 1e-arrange the brash and for an- other “‘installment.” We pested a man a8 a look-out and he would be greeted with the frcquent Inqulry “any rebs in the boles?” to which he always returned the dlscouraglng responee .4 “NARY REB, 1t is usual for troops to “‘fall in” and then march, but in thls instance we wanted enemy to merch and then ‘‘fall in."” On the evening of July 26th everything was put In readiness for the abandon- ment of this line, which was the extreme left of the union army then investing At- lants, and at midnight we moved out quletly, leaving camp fires burning.

Then began the slege of Atlants in earnest, eavy batterles were placad’ in posltion, the lines strongly fortified on both sldes, and occaslonally sdvanced by the Union army untll the city was in pleia vlew of the besiegers, and much n o8 was badly whipped by Hooker, and was |&! THE DAILY BEE- damsge done the buildings by the can- nonsding, The rebels had a namber of sixty-pound guns In posltion, and the shells from thess made a terrible nolse a8 they tore through the trees above our heads and exploded far In the rear. The shatpshooters of the enemy proved a great annoyance to us, dolng much damsge; on the skirmish line a man dare not ralse his hand above the earthworks, or it would be riddled with balls. I hap- ened to be looking directly at George glorrll, of Company *“B,” one day just as he was shot by one of these keen-eyed mATKSmen; THE BULLET PARSED through his face, and as he rose to his feet aftor recelving the injury the blood gushed forth in five streams, one from the entrance of the ball, one from its exit, one from each nostrll, and one from his mouth, The dootors ssid he could not live, but he did. He was taken to the hospital and finally recovered, though with the loss of an eye, and the personal beauty which had formerly made him one of the mnoticeable men In the com- pany has disappeared forever. He has been a model soldler, plways winnin, the premiums offered for the best drille and best equipped soldler in the regi- ment, and had taken great pride in his record, but this Injury broke his eplrit, and after his dlscharge, on account of disabllity, he returned to our old camps at Palaski, organized a squad of despera- does whioh proyed on the community, and was finally pursued and shot by commander of the Union officer then stationed at Palaski, ‘While occupying this skirmish line one evening just before being relieved, Lieu- tenant Tom Raush, of our cumgmy, re- marked: *‘I'll take one more shot before we leave,” and turned to point his Spencer rifle through the little port hole which he had been using through the day, but before he could pull the trigger bel bullet struck him and he fell over against a party of a half dozen who had been talking with him, his blood and braina scattering over us, as he gasped a few times and then was still forever. It was 80 sudden that it seemed impossible to realizo that the bright young man who amoment before had been 8 full of life and vitallty, had spoken his last words on earth and could not be helped by the efforts we made to relieve him. Durlng the selge it was with great diffi- culty that any assietance could be had from our two colored cooks, who had taken posttion, with a few thousand other darkies, in an abandoned line of works half a mile In the rear. It was the Intention for them to come to the front once a day with bean soup and cof- feo but Jake and Jlm preferred keeping close to thelr own line of defense. Jim made some show of courage but Jake was a great coward and did not attempt to disgulse the fact. When they would come to us with supplies Jake would take refuge In our ditch and lay a3 close to the bank nearest the enemy as he could get and as a rebel ‘‘tar bucket,” or tcamp kettle” (a5 the boys termed the huge shells) would crash through the trees, he would turn as white as was pos- sible for so black a darkey, and exclal “Laws & massy! Jlst look atdat, now otc, ete. We trled to shame him, tell- ing him this was “‘a nigger war,” that he ought to fight for his freedom, gain glory on the battle field, and 8o on, but to no purpose. He would listen attentively and reply: “‘Dis ain't no nigger’s war; dis am white man’s war; white man got into it and he can git out best he can widout my help.” He said he didn’t want any glory in his; that he was a heap bet'er off with his o!d masser in Alabama, and didn't want to be free, September 1st, 1864, Hood abandoned Atlanta to it fate and 1t was at once oc- cupled by the union forces. It was a se- vere blow to the cunfeceracy. The fol- lowing account of the occupation I olipped from a yellow looking rebel pa- per a few days afterwards, having been written from Jonesboro, near-Atlanta, on the 3d of September: THE REBEL VIEW OF IT. “On Monday night the Yankees had a rand ball at the Trout house, under the dlirection of Mrs. Clements, its proprie- tress. General Sherman and his staff and his corps and division commanders patro- nized the affatr. About a dozen women of the town, not a decent lady amongst them, attended the thing. But what wss wantiog In white was mado up In nlggers, They mingled oh! how they mingled. Black and brown, white and gray. They began the dance with the lan- cer's-quadrille, In which Gen. Shermsn led off with Mrs, Clements for a partner. His vis a vis was Gen. Howard. One of Sherman’s staff danced with one J. E, Buchavan’s nigger wo- he took there him- Blily Soloman’s nigger woman lent the charms of her presence and her figare in the dance,and had a great deal of attentlon paid her. Billy Markhsm brought two nigger women to the ball and looked on the scene with grinning admiration, He nobbed with the Yan- kees until he had to be retired In a car- riago. *‘Several respectable negro women, who were invited and sent for, In carri- ages with Yankes officers for escorts, re- fused to go, and freely expreased their dislike to the insult that was offered them, They looked on it as an indigni- ty to be asked by the enemies of their country to aseoclate with the white wo- men who attended the ball. The negro women wera foted and toasted and mon- opolized the attention of the entire crow of Yankees; and in fact some of the sym, pathizers who have sfliillated MAYOR JIM CALHOUN was prasent, toasting and congratulating the Yankees on thelr handsome trickery and the success of thelr arms. 1t ls sald that he proposed to open the ball with prayer and thanks for the great and de- cisive victory that had captured Atlanta, broken the splrit of the confederacy and brought Georgla into a condition where it could be governed by the free and en 'ghtencd rule of the royal ape. He was proud to see so many of thelr black sls- ters In arms welooming the conquerors, and hoplog for many returns of the like oceaslon, It Is suppossd he was uproar- lously drunk before he began, “L T, Banks lent the balefal light of his traitor visage to the scene. He hopped around the room with one of the blackest niggers In the ball room and promenaded arm {n arm, exhibiting much elatlon at belng permitted to promenade arm In arm with a huge nigger sergeant, who remarked, he didu’t konow but what he was disgraciog himself by walking with tuch a trashey white man. Banks was the first citizen of the city who visited Sherman, He had lald walt, watching for biw, snd before he had washed him- self, Banks placed before him an ac- curate llst of the secessionists and minute men of Atlanta, and the descrip- tlon and locatlon of thele property.

He congratulates them on the streets, aud miogles with them whenever opportunity offers, ana doubtless by this time occupics some office commensurate with his worth to the encmy.” MONDAY APRIL 20, 1885 NEBRASKA'S ADMISSION. Ex-Senator Thaver Details the Strog- gle for Statehood. The Objections of Sumner and Stev- ens Overcome—President John- son's Veto Set Aside—The Color Line Obliterated. Speclal Correspondence of THR Bir, Wasniseron, April 14 —At the con- vening of congrees for the short ression In the winter of 1866-7 the two senators elect, Tipton and the writer, Marquette, the member-elect to the then ocongress, and Taffe, the member-elect to the next congress, repalred to Washingtcn to re- new the application for the admisslon of Nebraska into the sfsterhood of states. To insure that end it was neceesary to secure the sapport of two-thirds of the members of each of the two houses of congrets, %0 as to be able to override the president s veto, which we well knew would follow the presentation of the bill to him, as the two principal grounds on which he rested his objections to the bill at the previous eesslon still exlsted: namely, that the provisions of the enab- ling act of 1864 had not been complied with, and that the population of the territory was too small elther to justify Its assumption of the obligation of state- hood, or to entitle it to be placed on the same footing with the other states, In the enjoyment of the rights and blesslngs of the unlon. It was not difficult to dis- cover, however, that the real reason was, that he didn’t want to witness the acqul- sitlon to the senate of two more republi- can senators. If we had been democrats he would have signed the bill. Dakota territory, with nearly a half mlillion of people, bas repeatediy knocked at the doors of congress, and has as often been turned awsay, SINPLY BECAUSE she would send to the national leglsla- ture two republican senators and three republican membera, There s no law arbitratlvely fixing the number of people a territory must contsin ss a condition of admittance, but the popular notion has been, and is, that the terrltory should have a population equal to that of amember of congress when 1t asks for recognition as a state, though that Is not adhered to asa rule. Refusing admit- tance to Dakota Is a great political crime. Its people are punished for the exercise of their political right, and are deprived of the enjoyment of other rights, be- cause they will not think as others do. It may be s:d the ropublican party would take the same course under the samo clrcumstances. Very likely, but that does not lessen the moral Intquity. It s a bold public wrong no matter by what party it is infllcted. 1t soon became apparent that almost the only obstacle in the way of having a two-thirds vote was the clause in the conetitutlon which restricted suffrage t> the white race. A few raised the objec- tlon that 1t would be unfair to place a small terr:tory, emall in numbers, on the same plane with New York, Pennsylva- nia and Ohio, In the senets, According to the most rellabla sources of informa- tlon, Nebraska had, at that time, about 70,000 inhabitante. THE FIRST THING TO BE DONE waas to devise a way or plan for ciroum- venting the word ‘‘white” in the consti- tutlon. Various methods were proposed, and it became neceseary for the delega- tion to call on eenators and members to advise with them, and to impart informa- tion. Among others, the writer called upon Charles Sumner one mecrning fully anticipzting the objection he would make, ~was nct In the least disap- Being shown to his received me formally but courteously. On stating the object of my call, it was apparent that a storm was brewlng snd must soon break out. Asking for the admisslon of Nebraska withthe word ‘‘white” in the constitu- tion, had the same effect apon Mr. Sum- ner, that the waving of one of ex-Sena- tor Thurman’s rel bandannas would bave upon an excitable Taunus, and he kroke forth: ‘*How is it possible you can come here clalming recognition for Nebraska, with a constitution retalning one of the barbarous features of the old pro slavery times. You claim you have adopted a constitation, republican in form, and that Nebraska will be a republican state, and yet, though four years have passed since the proclamation of universal emanclpa- tion, and after the adoptionof the XTII amerdment to the const'tutlon abolish- ing slavery, you come here with the word “‘white” In your constitution, The people of Nebraska are idiotlc, sir; idiotte. Instead cf belog progressive, they stlll cling to the old prejudices born of slavery. I am amazed at them,” Afier delivering himself thus he SERMED TO FIND RELIEF from the feeliogs with which he appeared to be surcharged. Ilistened to him at- tentlvely, without attempting to say any- thing in reply till he had finished. 'y then sald. “Mr. Sumner, a3 for the people of Nebraska belng idiotic, I have to say, that in my judgement, they will compare favorably with fhe people of any portlon oi the country; they are of the same class of tho @ who make up the population of the states east of the Mls- sourl river to the Atlantic ocean; they went from those states, and have helped to build a new state. I regret the pres- ence of the word ‘white’ in the comstitu- tlon as much a8 you do; it was a mistake to place it thers; but no one knows bstter than yourselt how difficalt it Is for a peo- ple to be educated up to an entirely new departare, to theadoption of viewsaud tra- ditions entirely the reverse of those which they were bred, d under the Influence of which they have always lived, for thls same restriction has been found In nearly all of the state constitutions. Ican re. member when Willlam Loyd Garrlson was chased through the streets of your own city f Boston by an inforlated mob, and hislife was saved only by the mayor and police hustllng him Into a strong jall, whose maesive tron doors defied the maddened populace; and all because Mr, Garrison bad denounced southern slavery 88 a monstrous natlonal crime, and which ought to be abollehed, I am in favor of glviog the franchlse to the colored man, 1 was brought to this conviction by prac- tical experience. It fell to my lot to have a brigsde of entirely colored taoops and three brigades of white troops in my command at the same thme for nearly a year during the late war, and It gave me a good opportunity to fest the former as soldlers, and I found them to be just as good fighters a8 thele = white breflren; that they made the eame kind of soldiers, and 1 never knew one of them to flinch in the bour of danger. The conviction was then fastened upon my mind that the man who fought by my slde, black though be was, to help eave this union, and of- fered his life If need be, as a eacrifice to rave it, was worthy to vote by my side to perpetuate the anion and to secure the just administration of the laws and the dlspensation of justice to all the people. I then vowed In my heart that if I lived to return to Nebraska, I would advocato the granting of suffrage to the colored man equally with the white man, and I have kept my vow. I bad nothing to do with making the conatitation; if I had, 1 should have opposed all restrlction of suffragze on account of race or color.” Mr. Sumner bad made a speech to me, and I was bound to respond to It. MY ORJECT WAS to vindlcate the people of the territory from the aspersion he had cast upon them, and to show him that my views and his colncided, and my poeltion was as far advanced as his, tonohing the question of equal suffrage. My litle speech evl- dently had some effect, for as soon as he found me In accord with him on the main question, his whole manner and appear- ance clnnsad at once, and he became as gentle and bland as he had before been rude and discourteous, From that time on he bocame a warm frlend of admis- slon, 1f & plan could be devised to nullify the saffrage restriction, and this he alded in doing. A call was then made upon Thaddeus Stevens, and from him the same objec- tlon was encountered, though he ac- corded me a different reception from that of Sumner. He was the recogn'zed leader of the house, and was one of the really great men of that perlod. He sald to me: *‘The men who made your constitution must have forgotten that slavery has been sboliehed and that the African s not a man and brother. They patterned after the prejudices of thelr fathers, and the states from which they emigrated. 1 can’t glve a vote that wlll eanction the wlthholding the elective franchise from any pereon on account of his color, but we want Nebraska.” 1 sald to him, “‘supposing the bill for the admisslon of Nebraeka ehould con— taln a clauge to the effect that the state shall be admitted on condltion that there shall be no restriction of suffrage on ac- count of color!” He rald in reply, THAT WAS THE VERY THING he had been thinkiog about, and added, “‘we must get up a bill In that way; and if we do not admlt you, and the state falls to coomply with the conditions, we will pass a law putting Nebraska back inton territory sgain, just so sure as there fs a God in Isracl.” I said, *‘all right, Mr, Stevene, we must take the consequences,” There were many con- sultations between Wade, Sherman, Sumner, Edmunds, Chandler, Howard, Stevens and others, and the result was the bill which paesed both houses In July 1867, admitling Nebraska as a ttate, “‘apon the fundamental condition, that, within said state there shall be no denfal of the elective franchise, or of any other right, to any person by reason of race or color, except Indians not taxed; and up- on the farther fundamental condition: that sho leglelstare of said state, by a solemn public act, shall declare the assont of eaid state to the eald furda- mental conditlons.” THE BILL WAS VETOED by the presldent, as was expected; but it paseed both Liouses over the veto by a vote cf—ayes 30, nays 9, in the senate Febrasry 8, and ayes 120, nays 44, in the house February 9. The bill directed the governor of the territory to convene the state legislature, the members of which were elected the eame time the constitution was voted for, in speclal sesslon, to take action on the conditions imposed. Governor Saunders immediately called the legis'ature to- gether at Omaha, and on the 20th of Fobroary a bill passed, accepting and ratifying the conditions imposed by the act of congress. A certlfied copy of the act was at once taken to President John- #on, who thereupon issued a proclamation March 1, declaring that the leglslatare of Nebraskahad complied with theconditions imposed by the act of congress, and that Nebraska {s now a state of the union, The act itself directed the president to is- sue the proclamation on recelving official evldence that the conditions bad been ratified and accepted. Thus Nebraska was admitted Into the constellatlon of states, a star of the first magnitude. Marquette took his sest as a member of that congress. The new oon- grees at that tlme convened on the 4th of March, the time having been changed on account of the difficultles with Presldent Johneon, or, in other words, to be in sesslon moet of the time 80 18 to watch him, Mr, Tipton and the wrlter were admitted to the house of representatives on the same day. Ne- breska was then a fall-fledged otate, and Gov. Butler immedately set the machin- ery of the state goverament in motion. . J. M.
