TWENTY-FIRST REGIMENT,
Harper's Ferry to complete the destruction which they had previously begun, and the whole country along the Virginia shore was again infested with their troops. Union men were seized and hurried away within their lines, and the destruction of property which ensued, marked the beginning of the misfortunes which for four long years were visited upon the inhabitants of the Shenandoah valley.
Remaining cncamped on the Maryland side, engaged in drill and guard duty until the 2d of July, the regiment moved with the Brigade to Martins- burg, participating in the skirmishing which ensued on the way. Encamping near the town it remained nearly two weeks, and while here was presented with a stand of colors by the Union Germans of Martinsburg. After participating in the demonstrations made upon Bunker Hill, and the approaches leading to Winchester, it marched to Charlestown, where it remained several days in camp, and from thence was ordered to Harper's Ferry.
The regiment was solicited by the commanding General to remain beyond the period of its enlistment, and a general willingness was expressed to com- ply with this request ; but its services not being needed, an order was issued for its discharge. Obtaining rail transportation it moved ria Baltimore to Philadelphia, where, on the 8th of August, it was mustered out of service. The Twenty-first had no opportunity to show its fighting qualities, but it was well disciplined, and for its soldierly bearing frequently received complimentary no- tices from its commanders.

TWENTY-SECOND REGIMENT.
PREVIOUS to the rebellion, the Philadelphia Light Guard was a uniformed militia regiment, and held, in the State organization, the place of First regiment, 3d Brigade of the 1st Division. It was formed in the summer of 1857, with seven companies, three hundred strong, by the choice of the follow- ing officers : Turner G. Morehead, Colonel; William L. Curry, Lieutenant Colo- nel; John M'Manus, Major; Asher S. Leidy, Adjutant. A vacancy, occa- sioned by the death of Major M'Manus, was filled by the election of A. J. M. Neil, and upon his resignation, by the election of George P. M'Lean.
On the 14th of April, 1861, the regiment, or battalion, then consisting of the original companies, with two hundred and fifty men, was accepted by the Governor, and ordered to recruit, which immediately commenced at the Arse- nal, Sixteenth and Filbert streets, and in a few days ten companies were fully organized, and filled to the maximum strength. The regiment had no single camp of rendezvous, but was quartered, until it left Philadelphia, one com- pany at the Arsenal, Filbert street; three at the regimental Headquarters, Commonwealth building, Chestnut street; one at the corner of Ninth and Chestnut streets; three in the church in Crown street, above Race; one at the Fairmount Engine house, Ridge avenue; and one in the vicinity of Eleventh and Girard avenue. In the new organization, the field officers were continued in the rank which they had severally held in the militia.
The regiment was daily drilled in heavy infantry tactics at Logan Square, and was soon brought under excellent discipline. About the middle of May it was ordered to Baltimore, where, upon its arrival, it reported to Major General George Cadwalader, then in command of the city, with Headquarters at Fort M'Henry, and was placed in camp at Locust Point. Remaining but a short time, it removed to Patterson's Park, and finally to Mount Clare, where it re- mained until the end of its term of service.
Soon after its arrival in Baltimore, General Cadwalader was superseded in command of the Department by Major General N. P. Banks. On the 1st of July, General Banks caused the members of the Board of Police Commission- ers * to be arrested, and in anticipation of trouble from a portion of the popu- lace, sympathizing with secession, five companies of the Twenty-second were
*HEADQUARTERS, DEPARTMENT OF ANNAPOLIS, Fort M' Henry, July 1st, 1861. $
In pursuance of orders issued from the Headquarters of the army at Washington, for the preservation of public peace in this Department, I have arrested and do now detain in cus- tody of the United States, the late members of the board of police, Messrs. Charles Howard, William Gatchell, Charles Hinks, and John W. Davis. The incidents of the past week afforded full justification for this order. The Headquarters under the charge of the board, when aban- doned by the officers, resembled in some respects a concealed arsenal. * * * I have placed
