Who that hves and was presentin the city of Fredericksburg, Va.,can forget the last night spentthere?

Torn awn-ings and broken window shuttersbanged and flapped about, start-i ng echoes in every nook and cor-ner, while broken sign-boards,swinging on their metal fasten-ings, uttered groans and shrieks asof incarnate fiends let loose fromHades. The horses hoofs rangout upon the cobble-stone pave-ments with such refunding echoesas to fill the mind of the super-stitious with dread, while theghastly dead lay on the door.
