an honorable one. Whatever have been the demands of duty and discipline, they have met a cheerful response ; and its steadfast and courageous demeanor before the enemy is witnessed by the list of its lamented and honored dead.


The Commanding General trusts that many of this veteran regiment may again be found rallying to the flag whose honor they have so long and so ably contributed to sustain.


2. In recognition of the services rendered by the Massachusetts troops, the battery between Fort McClellan and Fort Nanse- mond will be hereafter known as " Battery Massachusetts."

THE HOMEWARD TRIP.


We had passed as pleasant a campaign in Suffolk as usually falls to the lot of soldiers ; and we parted from a great many friends with regret. It had always seemed to me that Suffolk was an unnecessarily expensive post, and that three or four regiments at Deep Creek would be equal to thirty at Suffolk. I wrote in the Boston "Jour_ nal," on leaving: "I notice that fortifications are being built at a very strong position between this place and Norfolk. Would it not be an interesting fact if Suffolk should be evacuated ere long ? We can hold it easily; but so ex- tensive are the defences here, necessarily, that a large number of troops must be kept here. Suffolk evacuated, and the most of them would be available elsewhere. The movement would be an economical one."

THE NINE MONTHS' CAMPAIGN.


A few weeks. from this writing, the vast earthworks were levelled ; and a stranger could scarcely believe it had ever been the place we left it. So, ere long, may every trace of this cruel war be obliterated !


In a railway train to Norfolk, and thence in the S. R. Spaulding, a noble steamer, during three cloudless sum- mer days, along the coast, to Boston, briefly describes as pleasant a homeward trip as ever a regiment took. We reached Boston in fine spirits, were addressed with words of welcome by Gov. Andrew, from the State House steps, to which Col. Follansbee responded with his accustomed brevity and point, when, declining the offered hospitali- ties of the city, we proceeded to the Lowell Railroad station, through dense crowds of people. The track was thronged at all the way-stations ; but when we reached Lowell, we had such a reception as was never surpassed. Business was suspended; and the entire population, men, women, and children, thronged the streets of the city of spindles.


Debarking, we were escorted by the city government of Lowell, selectmen of neighboring towns, Lowell fire- department, and other bodies, through dense crowds of people, to the South Common, where Mayor Hosford addressed the regiment, and where the officers and men were able to greet their friends. Thence the regiment was conducted to Huntington Hall, to a most bountiful collation, and then furloughed till the next Wednesday, for mustering-out.

THE NINE MONTHS' CAMPAIGN.


The companies were promptly present ; and, after a review, were mustered out of the United States service, and thus finally closed their second campaign.


In sickness, wounds, and death, the regiment was remarkably favored throughout the nine months, consid- ering the unhealthiness of its location, and its exposure to danger. And it proved, by its uniform conduct, and its moral condition on returning home, that the oft- repeated stories of war's demoralization are not always true of soldiers. They would compare favorably with any equal number of men taken promiscuously from any community, and, when they returned, were as upright and moral and religious as when they left their homes for the trials and temptations of the camp.


Among the pleasantest recollections of the writer of these pages will always be the men whose acquaintance he formed, and with whom he went through the Nine Months' Campaign of the Sixth Massachusetts Regi- ment.


REGIMENTAL ROSTER.


As in the first campaign, so in the second, a complete list of the officers and men is here presented, with such previous and subsequent military service recorded against each name as the author has, by diligent inquiry, been able to ascertain. Years hence, these items will be pored over by reverential eyes.
