Bervices Rendered the Union by Brave Operators. HOW THE WIRES WERE CARRIED. Wonderful Feats of the Telegraph Corps—Some Sample In- stances of Heroism, Pittsburg Commercial-Gazette: Mr. T. B. David, a well known clectrician of this city, was one of the five men commis- sioned by the government during the war of the rebellion to manage the military telegraph service. He has been anxiously watching the progress of the bill for the relief of the war telegranh operators which was introduced in the early part of congress. As a commissioned officer he has no pecuniary interest in the bill, but wants to see it passed for the benefit of those who, while in the telograph corps of the army, performed strictly military duties, whereby some lost their lives and others were wounded or imprisoned, and who have received no official recognition for their fidelity, intelligence, bravery and efliciency. Speaking on the subject recently Mr. Da said: '*At the begin- ning of the war some of the prominent old army officers were opposed to the use of the telegraph, favoring the old courier plan. In constructing the first military telegraph line, we the hent all our energies to break down this prejudice, and before I had completed it—following McClellan’s army into West Virginia— these very men came to me in high praise of its usefulness. They were emplhatic as to how impossible it would be to con- duct war on a large scale without it. This may seem incredible in our day, but it is nevertheless u fa NDE] war the corps, consisting of about and a suflicient force of lin AW ¥ During the telograph 200 operators men, built and oper: 15,380 miies of telegraph Iines exclusively devoted to military pur- poses. In addition many lines of com- mercial compunies were tempor: from time to time, made use of by the nment. When McClellan sat before rktown the w trusty sentinel. It was a well known operator, Mr, Lathrop, was killed by a torpedo. The_wires followed Mc- Clellan into the wilderness, and threat- cning the forests and swamps of the Chickahominy, by day and night, kept him advised of events,'and made known at Washington by frequent daily tele- grams his hopes, his fears and his wants, 1ere the field telegraph was first pra cally tested for tactical purposes, and Gaines’ mills i Ianding it main: with the north until the army w inforce Pope. It followed "M ting force to Freder up the She: in the Alleghenies, and enabled them to co-operate to drive Juckson out of the valley and protect Pennsylvania and Washington. It followed General Cox to Guuley bridge, West Virginia, and via ale’zh to Princeton, and it brought fed- eral General Morgan operating against Cumberland Gap, Ky., mto the tel graphic union, and soon kept that Seba topol of America in communication with Buell at Shiloh, via Lebanon Junction, Ky., and Nashville, and announced the defeat of Beauregard’sarmy. STRETCHED LONGER AND LONGER. It followed Foote to Fort Henry and Grant to Donelson, whence it was ex- tended, making two routes to Nashvill The corps quinkl{ ddened tl; union people with Mitchell's wonderful successes in northern Alabama and en- abled him to capture valuable railroad trains by false telegrams transmitted over confeder ires, by means of which rhty-four miles of Memphis & Charles- ton railrond were captured in a few hours, ana Corinth and Chattanooga menaced [t was by the use of the te graph that GrantatJ’ on subsequently overlookea affairs in his depart pared Rosecrans for his splendid defense of Corinth, and brought Ord to Bolivar to co-operate with McPherson from Juck- son in the pursuit of Van Dorn's defe rmy. Even Curtis, at Pea Ridge, Ar was bat a few miles from the teleg builders, who were rushing thewr work with the greatest rapidity while he was fighting a rnificent battle. After completing this line, that from St. Louis to Pilot Knob, Mo., was extended over 200 miles to Batesville, Ark,, Curtis’ new base. Thus all along the armed front sped the electric tongue. Over 4,000 miles of military telegraph were in operation, embracing parts of the states of Pennsyl: vania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Maryl Delaware, Virginia, Mississippi, Arkan- sas, Tennessee, entucky, Missouri, Kansas, and soon after also North Caro- lina, Lou and the Ind 1E BRAVE oF IS, By the efforts of personal fricnds the history of the telegraph operators has been collected, and it 15 known that ot the e s number 1 died of discase, or were ¢ in the line of duty. 1t is more than 100 others sufle casualties of the ser: The fact that at least twelve members of the corps were killed by the enemy; that probubly fifty died in the service; that not less than ten were wounded and fully 200 captured, attest beyond question the danger inci- dent to service in the military telegraph corps of the union army in the war of the rebellion. Of the 1,150 operators en- gaged in and surviving the service, not- withstanding the remarkable facilities they have enjoyed for keeping track ot one another, and nine years’ effort to find their comrades, they do not now know that four years ago when a society was organized there were over 440 alive, INSTANCES OF HEROL One of the opera his office in Winchester, retreating federals bad uearly all left, was himself about guitting, when he re ceived a telegram frgm the commander for Harper's Ferry calling for reinforce- ments. His stay to transmit that dis- pateh resulted in his capture and impris- onment in Libby prison. For years hi has been suffering from the effects of his imprisonment and is in daily fear of the third stroke of paralysis. It is believed that ‘General Porter was saved from defeat by the bravery of an operator, who connected his instrument mained at , until the with the field hne during the battle of G s' Mill, and with uully a tree to shelter him from the storm of bullets and sent and received many dispatehes, whereby General MeClellan was enabled to reinforce General Porter most oppor- tunely. Several of the operators’ order- lies were shot, and messages had to be sent by two or three messengers to insure delivery. In 1850 General G, K. Warren wrote: “Loften talk with those who were with me of the operator who, in the first of our attacks on Petersburg, brought lus wire to the front under musket range of the enemy and operated it behind a tree that proved to be hollow, and whieh any of the cannon shot, which were at close range and Ilfmg fast, would bave gone clear through with little loss of fore and again, of the one on the Weldon rail- road on the Sunday morning we were shelled out of it, both from the north and west, and who worked his recorder mn a southeast angle, and outside under the musket fire tha its sound so near and the pattering of the balls arcund, con- fused the records of his sounder, and many others on other occasions. So I have always felt a great deal for their heroism.
