W Vain Confederate Yetoran
Tho 8th of Juno 18D3 was a cola day
with tho cavalry corps attached to the
Army of Northern YlrginW It was tho
day of grand roviuw at Brandy Station
whon Jeb Stuarts cavalrvmon passed
in reviow beforo Gen Robert E Lee
and staff For omo days prevlouely
the e had been unusual bustle in tho
camps of tho several brigades compos
ing this famous corps Thoro was a
general polishing up of sabers gunB
and revolvers the rubbing and curry-
ing of horses the dusting of blankets
and snddleB all in prppnration for a
grand display when to be paBSod in re
view before the eyea of the commander
in chief Every cavalryman who could
bo spared f m the picket lino along
the Bappahannock had been called into
camp to participata in the brilliant ma-
neuvering It waB tho preliminary pre-
paration for the invasion of Pennsylva-
nia and at a time when Gen Stuarts
corps had probably reached the maxi-
mum both s to number and equip-
ment There nere about eighteen
thousand mea la the saddle that day
and for tb most part the horses and
equipment were in first class condition
They presented a magnificent spectacle
and were highly complimented by Gen
LeeThe
The corps was composed of the very
flower of yotiag Southern manhood In
every saddle ttm seated a gentleman
proud of his family name and intense
in his devotion tojhis native Southland
No knichtli r band ever followed a-
more cbilvalric leader than the men
under Jeb Stsait And it was observ-
ed that Gwt Staarts personal alliums
nover showed to hotter advantage than
on that d jit Young gay and hand-
