The Daily Dispatch: January 10, 1861., [Electronic resource], Mass on the plains of Syria. (search)
sposed in favorable positions in front and on either side of the altar. The musicians were on the right of the altar, and the drums and bugles on the left, with the cavalry trumpets directly behind. The band's resources in sacred music were evidently very limited, and they were compelled to eke out the accompaniment of the mass with strains which sounded vastly like dance music. At intervals the drums and bugles, alternating with the trumpets, broke in, and gave the ceremony a war-like, fierce and menacing character, which was again changed and softened, when a really respectable choir pealed forth a hymn of thanksgiving and praise to the God of infinite mercies and loving kindness. At the elevation of the Host, arms were presented with a rattling sound, and salutes were fired from the four corners of the camp. The sight of a European army thus at devotion on the plains of Syria was a strange, imposing spectacle and carried the mind back to the days of Godfrey and Cœur de Leon.

emselves in the best manner that seemed to offer. The history of the combat in those dark cedar thickets will never be known. No man could see even the whole of his regiment, and no one will ever be able to tell who they were that fought bravest, and they who proved recreant to their trust. I know there was some cowardice displayed, but I know, too, that there was shown by many officers and regiments as lofty a heroism as that which distinguished and immortalized the followers of Godfrey or the Cid; but, in spite of heroism and devotion, in spite of desperate struggles which marked every fresh advance of the foe, in spite of awful sacrifice of life on the part of the officers and soldiers of the Union army, the rebels still steadily pushed forward and came nearer to the turnpike. Nearly two miles and a half the right wing of our army had been driven, and faintness of heart came over me as the destruction of our whole army seemed to stare us in the face. The right
