WAS IN0LDENT3 PEOM THE OTHER ' SIDE. An able contributor lo the Htligioui Herald, of Richmond. Va., saya: Only persons who have been in dose contact with the machinery and casualties of war can have any adequate conception of the hardships of a soldier. According to circumstances and position war levies an almost equal contribution of iu trials and horrore on sib aims of the service. Though a noneombatant, I entered flic Confederate Array, at Richmond. Va., and the object of these papers ia lo record a summary of events and movements which environed the Capital of the Confederacy, and myself In particular, while endeavoring to discharge tho duties of my office. I had strongly opposed the secession of Va., believing that while she remained in the Union the already seceded states might be induced to return honorably to the old compact. Hence I wrote articles for n Georgia paper, advising moderation and I watched with anxiety the e convention then drlibo ratine in Richconvention deliberating

mond I desired hope In the reluctance j of a strong minority to leave the Union. Hon. Ilcnry A. Wise, in the East, and all the delegates west of the moun- ' tains, opposed secession, step by rtep, K wltB eloquencr and vigor, and for a long d while it was doubtful whether the State b could be carried out. Special envoys " from South Carolina and Georgia urged * immediate action, but still the conven- a lion hesitated. But just at tbia crisis. ' Lincoln's call for 76.000 troops t coerce the already seceded states « came over the wires, and a secession or- I was promptly passed by a large 1 majority of states. 1 Of this important action outsiders were 1 kept In ignorance for a considerable ' time. The suspense was beginning to < painful, business was Interrupted, and no one c.>ujd divine what an hour " might bring forth. That official action, " pregnant with important consequences, ' bad taken place, many believed: bat ' what, no one could or cared to tell.- 1 Ope damp dreary morning when ex pec- ' tation was on tip-toe. a group of dtinus saw the Confederate flag waving lrom dome of the Va. State House. All 1 wa&plain In a moment . Va. bad seceded beyond, a donbL That seemed.-^i aw. ful moment to me I The orators of .llic Convention had almost convinced me a withdrawal from the Union was 1 the or ly alternative, and yet I had dreadful forebodings of what would inevitably follow. Virginia would now be a battle-ground of contending armies, and a fratricidal war would crimson her green valleys and mountain slopes with ■ he warm blood of brothers. This my Imagination saw at the time through a dim perspective, but the sequel proved the reality as very far above the imaginview. Being exempt from m Hilary service It was not my purpose to take an active part In the straggle, but this 1 soon found la be Impossible without leaving the. country. The war spirit and public sentiment demanded of every citizen a proof of hlsfealty to the State and the Confederacy. And to' this exigency 1 conformed my conduct. The , first belligerent news that convulsed Richmond from centre tb circumference was the fall of Fort Sumpter on the 18. of April 1861. An immense concourse of people bad promiscuously assembled on .Capitol Square, Richmond, to rei eel re the dispatches from the scene of the bombardment.

R As the sun was retiring below the horizon, the announcement came llml the fortress had surrendered. Instantly* the I . u crowd conveyed "from all quarters lo- j : ly wards the Executive Mansion, anil vo:t C"teher who — ' ,n the last hope of beeping Virginia in the , j. Union. He came promptly to the por. j ir tlcn, and with a few burning utterances j jf dis|ielled all doubts of his readiness to ttymen," he shouted • We can no longer i hesitate. The fatal die is cast. The lie- ! ,8 Diplomacy and negotiation, for the presiu cnl lMl"1- nr|- "« »n eDl1 A" '«'• y mains for us is for every man. as an inj,_ dependent freeman, to do bis duty. The u lion elsewhere at this very moment, so I 3C bid you a good night." The next mornm ing found the arsenal at Harper's Kerry J0 a heap of smouldering ruins, and the m navy yard at tiosport in possession of the Stale authorities. This revealed lle what the Governor and his council had i, been doing during the night. been doing during the night. I

If 1 bad misgivings at the sight of the I Confederate flag, I now felt sure that a bloody drama hid Indeed begun, and J Maine to California, and from the t great lakes to the Gulf of Mexico, the ( din of battle would be beard and warwould riot without mercy. 1 will ' not deny that I wished myself in some sequestered spot where the clash of arms l and the groans, of dying soldiers could ' not bo heard. The belief was universal that no backward step could be taken, . and both sections of a once united and , powerful Republic began to recruit and drill, as many hoped, for a brief, sharp, decisive conflict. Bat never were poor mortals more deceived as to the tenacity and continuance of a once Inaugurated war. Startling events now begun to culminate. Both sides called for volunteers, and were responded to with feverish enChuslam from ail quarters of this immense Country. "On to Washington" from the South, was echoed back by . "On to Richmond" from the North. These tallsmanlc phrases, Infused courage into both armies. The shock of battle soon came at Bull Run, July 21, 1861, ; when the Union Army was defeated and . thrown back upon Washington In great disorder. This first success, though the i occasion of unrestrained rejoicing all , over the South, also proved to us in the . end a fatal deWon. Many Southern- . era regarded this first battle aa also the , last, and soldiers went home on long | furloughs not expecting to be aecded- ■ again, as the North was conquered. Tfi? i long interval of quiet seemed to justify r this expectation. Never were an anx- , ious people mora deceived. But I pass I from this delusion to Incidents falling . under my notice In the discharge of my r duties at the hospitals. , On the day after the tlrst conflict of I arms, there was ample work for feeling t hearts and skillful bands with the , wounded and dying. My heart sickened . at the hideous results of that contest. . Ambulances wete coming to the Almshouse Of the city with human forms s mangled and shattered by shslls and j shot Groans and shrieks kept time e with jolting and ratilc of the vehicles. These were angmintcd and intensified ( on the tables of the amputating surgeons, j I had lean Uood-staineii scalpels in .he dissecting rooms of the Richmond MedlJ cnl College but never bad I seen piles II of legi am! arms Bung together aa.offsla fnw a butcher's block- Most of these
