THREE MONTHS' SERVICE.

men, including the twenty-six original members, were in line and ready to march. At ten o'clock P. M., of the same day, the company moved to the station on the opposite bank of the Juniata river; but, owing to a lack of transportation, it did not reach Harrisburg till the morning of the 17th.

The officers of the National Light Infantry,* of Pottsville, had, as early as the 11th of April, by a resolution of the company, tendered its services to the Secretary of War, and were notified, on the 13th, of their acceptance. The Washington Artillery, t also of Pottsville, with like patriotic ardor, anticipating the wants of the government, had, on the 13th of April, tendered their services to, and been accepted by the Government. The two companies, under march- ing orders, left Pottsville on the 17th, and arrived in Harrisburg, at cight o'clock in the evening. Simultaneously with these, came, also, the Allen Guard from Allentown, a company efficiently organized and well drilled, under Captain Yeager.

On the morning of the 18th of April, a detachment of Regulars of company "H," 4th Artillery, consisting of some forty or fifty men, arrived in Harrisburg from the West, in command of Lieutenant Pemberton, afterward a Lieutenant General of the rebel army, and chief in the fruitless defence of Vicksburg. The five volunteer companies having been mustered into the service of the United States by Captain Sencca G. Simmons, of the 7th Infantry, the regulars and these volunteers, departed on the same train, at nine o'clock A. M., of the 18th, the former for Fort M'Henry, near Baltimore, the latter for Washington, and arrived at Baltimore at one P. M. The volunteers were under the necessity of marching some two miles through the city, from Bolton to Camden station.

On leaving the cars, a battalion was formed in the following order: Pem- berton, with his regulars, on the right ; Selheimer, with the Logan Guards, next; and Yeager, Wren and M'Donald following, M'Knight, with the Ringgold Ar- tillery, bringing up the rear. As the column was forming near Bolton station, the police of Baltimore appeared in large force, headed by Marshal Kane, and followed by a mob, who at once commenced an attack upon the volunteers, countenanced by a portion of the police, sent to give safe conduct through the city. Orders were given to the men to preserve their temper, and to make no reply to anything that should be said to them. At the command "forward,"

#THE NATIONAL LIGHT INFANTRY was organized in the summer of 1831, and was com- manded, successively, by Captains Dean, Shoenfelter, Beard, Bland, Pott, and M'Donald. The interest in the organization, which had, for a time, been impaired, was revived under the skillful management of Captain Frank Pott, and the outbreak of the rebellion found the com- pany in efficient training under Captain M'Donald. Its organization was continued after the three months' term of service had expired, and became company "A" of the 96th veteran regiment.

+ THE WASHINGTON ARTILLERY was organized at Pottsville, in July, 1842, under Captain (since Brigadier General) James Nagle. At the breaking out of the Mexican war, its services were tendered to the Governor, and accepted. Its ranks being immediately recruited to the maximum number, it was, on the 15th of December, 1846, mustered into the service of the United States at Pittsburg, as company "B," Ist regiment of Pennsylvania Volunteers. Francis M. Wynkoop, hitherto a private in the ranks of the Artillerists, was elected Colonel of the regi- ment. Retiring from Mexico with thinned ranks, the company was mustered out, at Phila- delphia, on the 27th of July, 1848, and the scarred veterans were received at Pottsville with honors befitting the brave. Cherishing l'esprit du corps, and proud of their history, the or- ganization and drill of the company was studiously maintained, their ranks being continually recruited from the young men desirous of emulating their valor. On several occasions the company was called out to assist in quelling disturbances, which the civil authorities were unable to repress, and always performed this disagreeable duty in a manner to command the confidence and gratitude of all law abiding citizens.

FIRST FIVE COMPANIES,

the mob commenced hooting, jeering, and yelling, and proclaimed with oaths, that the troops should not pass through their city to fight the South.

Arriving near the centre of the city, Pemberton, with his regulars, filed off towards Fort M'Henry, leaving the volunteers to pursue their way through the city as best they could. At this juncture the mob were excited to a perfect frenzy, breaking the line of the police, and pushing through the files of men, in an attempt to break the column. Every insult, that could be heaped upon the troops, was offered, but no word of reply was elicited, the officers and men marching steadily on towards Camden station. At every step the mob increased, until it numbered thousands of the most determined and desperate rebels of the war.

The Logan Guards were armed with thirty-four Springfield muskets, which had been drawn from the National armory, on a requisition from the Adjutant General of Pennsylvania, at the time of its organization in 1858, and thirty-four of their number carrying them, were uniformed precisely like theregulars. The officers and some of the men wore revolvers at their sides, well loaded. Aside from these, there was not a charge of powder in the five companies; but one of the men of the Logan Guards, happening to have a box of percussion caps in his pocket, had previously distributed them to his comrades, and the thirty- four muskets of the Guards were capped, and carried, half cocked, at a support arms, creating the impression in the mob, that these muskets were loaded, and would be used against them, if they attempted an assault. This feint was be- licved to have saved that little band of volunteers from the bloody and brutal attack which awaited the Massachusetts 6th on the following day.

As the volunteers were boarding the train at the station, the angry mob hurled a shower of bricks, clubs, and stones into their disorganized ranks, for- tunately, however, inflicting only slight injuries. In the midst of the confusion, an attempt was made to detach the engine from the train and run it away. This was only prevented by the determined character of the engineer and his assistants, who drew revolvers, and threatened to shoot any who dared to make the attempt. At length, amidst the demoniac yells of the crowd, the train moved off, carrying the volunteers safely beyond the reach of their desperate assailants.

In the meantime, great solicitude was felt by the State officials at Harris- burg, for the safety of these unarmed and defenceless men, pioneers, pushing forward, amidst threatening and discordant clements, to the rescue of an im- perilled and helpless government. The previous- demonstrations of the disor- derly element in Baltimore had created alarm, and solicitude was felt, lest an attack should be made upon the volunteers, and they would need arms and am- munition for their own defence; but so great was the demand for men, and so loud the eall from Washington to hasten their mareh, that the necessary equip- ments, which were not in hand, could not be procured. Upon the arrival of the volunteers at Baltimore, the Governor and his executive and staff officers, repaired to the telegraph office in Harrisburg, and awaited, in almost breathless anxiety, for the first intelligence of these pioneer soldiers. When, at length, the announcement was made of their successful march through the city, and of the safe departure of the train bearing them on to Washington, he raised his arm, and pledged in his own characteristie manner, that not another Penn- sylvania soldier should leave the State unarmed, if the capital should be razed to the ground.

THREE MONTHS' SERVICE.

At seven o'clock P. M., of the 18th,* these five companies, the head of the grand column of two millions of men, who were afterwards mustered and marched in their footprints, arrived in Washington. Major (since Major Gen- eral) Irwin M'Dowell assumed command, and ordered them to quarters in the Capitol. Arms, ammunition, and equipments were furnished, and the work was immediately commenced of barricading the Capitol, fronting the Potomac. with barrels of cement, and large sheets of boiler iron.

The timely arrival of these troops was the occasion of much joy. On the opposite side of the Potomac, on the Virginia shore, squads of rebel soldiers were drilling in full view of the Capitol, and, but for this accession of strength, the city might have fallen an easy prey. The night of the 18th passed quietly away, and at day-break of the 19th, the morning report of the Logan Guards, officially signed, was handed, by the First Sergeant of the company, to Adju- tant General Thomas, that officer remarking, that it was the first official volun- teer report received.

On Tuesday, the 23d, it was ascertained that an attempt would be made to capture Washington by way of the Arsenal and the Navy Yard. The Ring- gold Artillerists were, accordingly, ordered to report to Captain (since Admiral) Dahlgren, at the Navy Yard. Three twelve-pound howitzers were assigned to the company, with which to defend the place. With the exception of a de- tachment of twelve men, detailed to guard the Short bridge, the entire com- mand was required to man these guns. On the 25th, a Sergeant and six men were detailed from the company to serve as a guard on the Steamer Powhatan, dispatched to make a reconnoissance down the Potomac, to search for obstruc- tions, and to ascertain if forts were being erected along the river. On Friday, the 26th of April, the company was ordered, by Major M'Dowell, to duty at the Capitol. Remaining there till the 15th of May, it was ordered to report for duty to Major (since Major General) Ramsey, at the Washington Arsenal, who assigned it to quarters in the penitentiary.

When the company left Harrisburg, on the 18th of April, it was ordered to leave behind its field pieces, and equipments, with the exception of sabres. This order was exceedingly distasteful to the men, as their guns, which they kept beautifully burnished, and designated by pet names, had come to be regarded with an attachment which only soldiers know. On the 16th of May, to the great joy of the men, their pieces were restored to them, and they were ordered to discontinue all other duty, to put their guns and caissons in proper condi- tion, and to commence, at once, gun and sabre drill. On the 18th the com- pany was inspected by the Secretary of War, Mr. Cameron. With the excep- tion of a short interval, when detailed to mount guns in the forts about Wash- ington, the company remained on duty at the Arsenal till the expiration of its term of service, never having performed duty with the regiment to which it was nominally attached.

The Logan Guards and Washington Artillery, after remaining in the Capi- tol some ten days, were ordered to garrison duty at Fort Washington, then in command of Brevet Major J. A. Haskins, of the Regular army. These two companies having an excess of men, a new company was formed from the sur- plus, and First Lieutenant David A. Smith, of the Washington Artillery, was commissioned Captain thereof.

*The Massachusetts 6th arrived at the Capital at nine o'clock P. M., of April 19, and the New York 7th-which was the next to arrive-April 25;

FIRST FIVE COMPANIES,

These pioneer companies, which had promptly marehed to the Capital on the first alarm, and had been assigned to duty for its safety and protection, amidst the great uprising of the people which ensued, seem to have been lost sight of, and forgotten by the State authorities. For, not until two hundred and forty other companies, that succeeded them in the service, had been organized into regiments, brigades and divisions, were they remembered as a part of Pennsylvania troops. After twenty-four other regiments were organized and fully equipped, these first companies, which were justly entitled to the first place in the Ist regiment, were organized as a part of the 25th and last regi- ment for the three months' service. Henry L. Cake, of Pottsville, was elected Colonel, and Captain Selheimer, of the Logan Guards, Lientenant Colonel. Colonel Selheimer was ordered to join the regiment ; but the companies serving in Fort Washington never saw the regiment or its Colonel; indeed, only knew that they belonged to a regiment from the fact that one of their Captains had been transferred by promotion. Nearly two months, of the three for which they had enlisted, had passed, before these companies received adequate cloth- ing or eamp equipage, from either the State or National Government, and many of the men were excused from duty because of their partial nakedness.

Major Haskins, and the efficient officers under him at the Fort, worked zealously and kindly with these troops, in perfecting them in their duties as soldiers, and so well did they succeed, that in the single company of Logan Gnards, one-half of the number became commissioned officers in various Penn- sylvania regiments, four of the number being Brevet Brigadier Generals, four Colonels, four Lieutenant Colonels, six Majors, eighteen Captains, and thirty .. two Lientenants. Among the privates in the ranks of this company, in their march through Baltimore, was Brigadier General Wm. H. Irwin, who com- manded a brigade of General Franklin's corps at Antietam; Brevet Brigadier General Wm. G. Mitchell, chief of General Hancock's staff; Brevet Brigadier General J. A. Mathews, who commanded the second brigade of General Hart- ranft's division, in the 9th corps; and Brigadier General Thomas M. Hulings, who was killed while gallantly leading his regiment into the thickest of the Wilderness fight.

In the progress of the gigantic struggle which ensned, of which the most farsighted had then no conception, so many and such brilliant services have been rendered by the soldiers of the National armies, that the timely march of these companies has been little noted. But the valne of their presence in the Capital at this eritical juncture, can not be overlooked, in any fair estimate of the causes which led to our triumph ; and it must ever be regarded as one of the links in that ehain of great events, seemingly planned by Providence, for our deliverance. The President and other officers of the Government felt, and repeatedly expressed gratitude for their timely presence, and the thanks of the House of Representatives, which are rarely tendered, and only for great and most signal services to the State, were expressed in the following terms :

37TH CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES, July 22, 1861.

Resolved, That the thanks of this House are due, and are hereby tendered to the five hundred and thirty soldiers from Pennsylvania, who passed through the mob of Baltimore, and reached Washington on the eighteenth of April last, for the defence of the National Capital.
