The item in the center of the foreground is definitely a brass part of an umbrella (or, "parasol") shaft. The slots are for the "spokes" which gave rigidity to the umbrella's fabric canopy. The items on the left of it might also be an umbrella/parasol part.

Mint Julep and a parasol in the civil war was like Beer and Pretzels during Super Bowl in the South. Cool finds.
