Let us hope that our work is done, and that, blessed with the com- forts of peace. we may be permitted to enjoy the pleasures of home and Friends. Forour comrades who have fallen let us ever cherish a grateful remembrance. To de wounded, and to those who languish in Southern prisons, let our heartfelt sympathy be tesdered.
And now speaking for myself alone, when the war is ended and the task of the historian beams-when these deals of daring, which have real- dered the name and fame of the Third Cavalry Division imperishable. are inverti I upon the bright pazes of our country's history. I only ask that my name may be written as that of the commander of the Third Cavalry Division.
It is worthy of remark that this was " Palm Sun-

day"-the day upon which the Saviour entered the City of Jerusalem in triumph, while the people shouted "Hosanna to the Son of David," and spread palms of victory in his way.
On the 12th of April, being the fourth anniversary of the inauguration of the rebellion, at Fort Sumter. the troops set out on their march for home.
On arriving at Petersburg, however, the cavalry were ordered to proceed to co-operate with General Sherman. in his contemplated attack upon the Confederates under General Joe Johnson.
Before crossing the northern boundary line of North Carolina, they were ordered to retrace their steps, Gen- eral Johnson having signified his wish to surrender upon the same terms and conditions granted to General Lee's Army.
Colonel A. W. Adams had joined our forces, near Ar- pomattox Court House, and was in command of the regi- ment upon this raid. As they were marching south. a little incident occurred which deserves to be mentioned. One of the flankers, a man of our regiment, entered a private house and appropriated some jewelry, and when remonstrated with by one of the ladies, he took the ear- drops from her ears by force. When Colonel Adams came to hear of this affair, he consulted with Generals Custer and Capehart, and it was resolved to shave the fellow's head and drum him out of the service in dis- grace, which was accordingly done. The jewelry was placed in the hands of the principal professor of a col- lege or seminary, in the town where the drumming-out took place, to be restored to the rightful owner.
On the return to Petersburg. the news of President Lincoln's assassination reached them. and the indigna-

tion of both officers and men knew no bounds, and it was only with the utmost effort that the men could be restrained from aets of retaliation.
On arriving at Petersburg, the troops went into camp for a few days, to allow the jaded horses to recuperate from the effects of their recent hard work.
While lying here a race was gotten up between the celebrated four-mile race-horse of General Custer, and the one-mile race-horse of Colonel Adams, of our regi- ment.
The men had just been paid off, and bets ran high. Our boys bet their pile on Colonel Adams' horse, for the honor of the regiment, and the excitement and en- thusiasm was at fever heat.
Riders were chosen, and Colonel Adams insisted that General Custer should act as judge, which he very re- luetantly consented to do.
When the horses came up to the score to start, every eye was fixed upon them, and as they went off like rockets, at the word " go." every neck was stretched to its fullest length to catch a glimpse of the magnificent animals; but as they came up the " home stretch." lan- guage fails me to describe the excitement of that tumul- tuous throng, who had nearly all bet their last dollar on the result. Custer's " sorrell " had wind and bottom for a four-mile heat, and. in such a race. few could compete with him; but Adams' stout brown horse had the " legs" on him, in a dash of a single mile, and won the race by more than a length. amid the most deafening cheers and uproations surging of the betters, each trying to see for himself which horse should win.
General Custer pronounced Adams' horse the winner. without a moment's hesitation. and soon there was a

general changing hands of various sums of money, which some of the foolish fellows could illy afford to lose.
Soon after this the troops set out for the Federal Capital, passing through Richmond, late the Capital and stronghold of the fallen Confederacy; and on the 23d of May, those war-worn veterans passed in review before the President of the United States, the Commander-in-Chief of the Armies, and thousands of the leading men and women of the North, at Washington, presenting one of the most sublime spectacles that human eye ever beheld. Four years before they had gone forth, as American citi- zens, all undisciplined, but full of patriotism, to defend the best government that God ever vouchsafed to man. against the wickedest and most causeless rebellion that heaven or earth ever witnessed, save that of Lucifer alone.
They had crushed the rebellion. stamped out human slavery, and had made the United States in fact, what they had only been in name : " The land of the free and the home of the brave." and were now returning to their peaceful avocations to receive the plaudits of heaven. and of their fellow men : " Well done thou good and faithful servants!"
That was indeed a glorious day when the veterans tiled past the Executive Mansion, with their bright arms, tattered flags, prancing steeds, and soldierly bearing. They had made a record that will live while history is read, or valiant deeds held honorable by the human race.
In years to come the people of this glorious Republic will prize alike the fathers who made, and the sons who preserved them a nation.
On the day of the review, the Thint Division was the observed of all observers. Every man wore a " Custer 30

HISTORY OF THE
Tie." consisting of a scarlet scarf. tied round the neck, the long ends thrown back over the shoulders.
As the division turned the corner of Fifteenth street. some fair lady cast a wreath of flowers to its gallant chief. He caught it lightly on his arm, but his magni- ficent stallion took fright and dashed off at a speed, de- fying the efforts of his rider to control him. until he had passed the grand stand. As the frightened steed dashed along, with flashing eyes and distended nostrils, the muscles standing out prominently on every limb, the horse and rider formed a grand equestrian model, which the sculptor might be proud to reproduce in marble, or the painter upon canvas. Finally. General Custer con- quered his steed, and brought him to his place at the head of the column, while the ladies waved their hand- kerchiefs, and almost sereamed with delight.
The following congratulatory order was issued by General Grant on the 2d of June. A. D. 1865 :
Soldiers of the Army of the United States :- By your patriotic devotion to your country in the hour of danger and alarm, and your magnificent fighting, bravery and endurance. you have maintained the supremacy of the Union and the Constitution, overthrown all armed opposition to the enforcement of the laws and of the proclamation forever abol- ishing slavery, the cause and pretext of the Rebellion. and opened the way to the rightful authorities to restore order and inaugurate peace on a permanent and enduring basis. on every foot of American soil. Your marches, sieges and battles, in distance. duration. resolution and brillianey of resttits, dinis the lustre of the world's past military achievements, and will be the patriot's precedent in defence of liberty and right in all time to come. In oballeave to your country's call. vou left your homes and families, and volunteered in her defence. Victory has crowned your valor, and secured the purpose of your pa- triotic hearts ; and, with the gratitude of your countrymen. and the highest honors a great and free nation can accord. you will soon be per- mittelto return to your homes and tandie- conscious of having dis- charged the highest duty of American citizens. Toachieve these glo- rions triumph, and secure to yourselves, your fellow-countrymen and posteras, the bisstress of free institutions tens of thousands of your gallant comrades have fallen, and sealed the priceless legacy with

their blood. The graves of these. a grateful nation bedews with tears. It honors their memories, and will ever cherish and support their stricken families.
( Signed ) U. S. GRANT.
At this time a net enemy seemed to be threatening our peace. The French had occupied Mexico, and it was expected that United States troops would be need- ed once more on the line of the Rio Grande. To meet such an emergency some of the best volunteer cavalry regiments were to be retained in the service; and the "Fighting Brigade," to which the First New York ( Lin- coln) Cavalry belonged, was, with others. selected. Gen- eral Capehart had resigned immediately after the grand review at Washington, and Colonel A. W. Adams, of the Lincoln Cavalry, was in command of the brigade when the orders were received to get ready to join General John A. Logan, then at Louisville, Kentucky, prepara- tory to marching to the Texas frontier. Colonel Adams at once sent the Virginia regiments of the brigade for- ward, by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. and was about setting out with his own regiment-the Lincoln Cavalry-when the trouble with France ended. and the order to march was countermanded. The Virginia regi- ments were stopped at the Ohio River, and were ordered to be mustered out. and the " Lincoln Cavalry" was or- dered to proceed to New York city for the same purpose.
On the 24th of June, 1865. the First New York ( Lin- coln) Cavalry arrived in New York city, and their re- ception was a perfect ovation.
The following account of the reception of the regi- ment was clipped from the New York Times of June 29. 1365. and will be read with interest :
The Fire New York : Lincoln cavalry arrived yesterday morning, and proceedled to the Save Agency Rooms. Bigl th Regiment Armory;

HISTORY OF THE
where a splendid dinner was prepared for the command by Colonel Colyer, the New York State Agent. The regiment being expreted on Tuesday night, liberal provision was made for the reception at the Agency. The ladies had prepared an elegant dinner for them, loading the tables with fruits and flowers, and Colonel Colyer had Robertson's band of thirty pieces waiting at the Battery at five o'clock. But this gallant reziment-one of the pets of New York-did not arrive, owing to some delay in the trains. A regiment of cavalry was also in waiting to escort the command from the Battery, but that part of the programme wasomitted when the regiment did finally arrive.
Marching up Broadway, the Lincoln Cavalry was received with heartiness by those witnessing their progress up town, and the veteran organization was noticed and recognized as their fame merited.
After enjoying a substantial dinner provided by the State Agency, and a bountiful supply of ripe fruit. Colonel Colver. on behalf of Gov- ernor Fenton, who had so desired. in a neat and telling speech. set forth the earnest wishes of the Governor of New York to render to al! returning regiments of New York a fitting reception. In response to the speech of Colonel Colyer, Colonel 1. W. Adams, commanding the Lincoln Cavalry, replied as follows :
SPEECH OF COLONEL ADAMS.
HONORED SIE :- As Colonel commanding the First Regiment of New York Cavalry, now about to leave the national service, I feel op- pressed with a sense of gratitude for the flattering reception we have received upon reaching " home, sweet home," after four years of aphi- ous service in sustaining the institutions of our beloved country. Per- mit me, honored sir, to say for myself. and the brave officers and men whom it has been my privihere and honor to command, that this is the " day of days " of our weary pilgrimage, and that it will ever be to us the " greenest spot in memory's wase." Not the less do we prize this generous reception because it isgiven in the name and by authority of His Excellvary Reuben i. Fenton, our honored and patriotic Gover- not-the true friend of the soldier and the Union. Your kindness will byenbalmed in our hearts. and consecrated mour affections.
The commendation, the hearty greeting of friends at home. with " well dose, good and faithful servants." is not only hering to the soldier's heart, but we receive them as ample compensation for all the kufferings and trials through which we have passed. It will, 1 trust. beno departure from modesty-one of the cardinal qualities of the trug soldier -to say that the First New York Cavalry was the first rowi- ment of that arm of the public service that voluntarily came to the rescueont our imperiled institutions, upon the breaking out of the je- billion. Weasked no "bounties," we dennunded no sordid wain. but madea freeoffering of our services, our lives and our honor in support of the supremacy and majes's of the starry dog of the republic.
[ minot, in desul, & capitalato the services of far regiment, but the Imparcial tastoran will record that it met the for in many of the

blood est conflicts of the war, as that (pointing to the old regimenta! colors) honored, dearly prized, mutilated and tattered Hag will testify -and that it was always prompt in the discharge of every duty, in the camp, on the march, on picket and on " fields of crimson gore." Many of the gallant officers, and hundre ls of the brave men of this regiment have fallen victims to their devotion and valor, and sleep sweetly. I trust, in their honored graves, upon Southern soil. Weask of the friends of the American Union, to drop a tear to their memory.
The war is happily at an end. The supremacy of the government has been maintained, and as a nation we are about to enter upon a new career of honor, prosperity and glory! Gratitude should be engraven upon our " heart of hearts," to the girer of all good for His distinguished mercies in youcasating to us the preservation-wingwired-of our free institutions. Myself, and my brother officers and men, about to sever our connection. as soldiers, with the National Government will soon resume our peaceful avocations. We return not among you with wealth ; bat. I trust, not without honor. In the language of the Scot- tish bard :
For goldl the merchant plows the main, The tarmer plows the manor, But glory is the soldier's prize. The soldier's wealth is honor !
The surviving officers and men of the First Regiment of New York Cavalry are not politicians; but they love our free institutions, and they have not been wholly unobservant of or indifferent to the deep duplicity of Great Britain, and the designs and intrigues of the Em- peror of the French, during our late struggle with rebellion. We labor under the conviction, sir. that the doctrine of the fifth President of the United States, the illustrious JAMES MONROE. in regard to crowned heads ruling on any portion of our continent, is wise, statesmanlike And patriotie : and should our government over call upon the sons of the land to maintain this doctrine, I hazard nothing in saying that the officers and men of this veteran regiment would as chrecially and promptly respond to such a call as they did to the reverberating report from the first gun tired at Sumter in 1st1.
Fortunately for the country, all have implicit confidence in the wis- dom. patriotism, valor and determination of ANDREW JOHNSON, the Antecessor of the martyred and lamented LINCOLN.
To him and to his patriotic ( abinet-a galaxy of heroes and states- men-may be safely intrusted these important questions, involving the honor and looking to the great future of our incomparable republic. In conclusion, sir. permit me, on behalf of my command, and for myself to express the hope that the Empire State, the home of this regiment, may continue to be distinguished for her patriotism, herd .- vation to the National Government, as evidenced by her magnani- tens supply of mint and motivy, her comme read and medtalent prosperity, and for the individual happiness of hersons and daughters.

HISTORY OF THE
To you. my comra les-in-arms, [turning to his regiment.] with whom I have so long served through perils, hardship- and sufferings, wishing you all health, prosperity and happiness, .I offer a soldier's adieu-a soldier's . farewell."
The regiment returned to the Battery during the afternoon. and took steamer for Hart's Island, where they will be mustered out and paid off.
Thus ended the active military career of one of the most gallant regiments of volunteer cavalry. in the Armies of the Union, during the Great Rebellion.
They were mustered out on the 7th of July. 1865.
After the muster-out of the regiment the following officers received brevets, for gallant and meritorious con- duct during the war. as will also appear by the Register of Commissioned Officers, given in the Appendix :
Colonel 1. W. Adams, to be brevet brigadier-general U. S. V.
Lieutenant-colonel J. C. Battersby, to be brevet colo- nel N. Y. V.
Major E. H. Bailey, to be brevet lieutenant-colonel N. Y. V.
Major Franz Passegger, to be brevet lieutenant-colo- nel N. Y. V.
Captain James H. Stevenson, to be brevet major U. S. V.
Captain Samuel Stevens, to be brevet major N. Y. V.
Captain E. F. Savacool. to be brevet major N. Y. V.
Lieutenant Clifford Thompson, to be brevet captain and brevet major U. S. V.
The following lines, by Geo. H. BoKer. the well known poet, seem to fit the occasion right here:
" LET U'S HAVE PEACE." " Thank God the bloody days are fast. Der patient hopes are crowned at last : And . wall of brele. Fruman Lub. But leat our heroes home from -trite !
359
FIRST NEW YORK ( LINCOLN) CAVALRY.
Thank God there beams o'er land and sea. Our blazing star of liberty : And everywhere. from main to main. The old flag flies and rules again !
Thank God! oh dark and trodden race, Your Lord no longer veils his face; But through the clouds and woes of fight. Shines on your souls a brighter light !
Thank God, we see, on every hand. Breast-high the rip'ning grain-crops stand ; The orchards bend. the herds inerense.
But oh, thank God ! thank God for PEACE !"
