THE OLD GENERALS. The Fate of the Leaders of the Southern Armies. | Boston Advertiser. Twenty years ago the north kept 1a mind the leading generals on the rebel side, and discussed their mer- interest as was armies. its with as much shown in the leaders of Many of them had been prominent in the regular army before the war. | Some were connected northern with families. ** What has become of these [ asked an old West Poin- ter and brilliant general officer the otherday. He thought a minute. **Why the majority of them are dead was the reply. Then he went on to tae up some of those historic names With many of their owners he had served in Mexico and in India wars without number, ‘* Yes. the greater part of these men are dead, much larger proportion than of our north- | ern generals. After the war most of them broke down. The fact was the rebels suffered more than we did. They had a harder time in the field, lived poorly and were more disposed to disease than our men. Lee, An— derson, Bragg, Magrude:, Hood, Picket, Forrest, Price, Pemberton, ‘Dick’ Taylor, Pillow, Floyd, Har- dee-and Ewell were among them. WHY THEY WENT. The majority had been in the reg- ular army. They went with the south for pride, and in part because they were frozen out. I shall not forget Anderson. - He was a cap- tainin the dragons out in Utah. When his resignation was accepted and he went away trom the rear of us, the tears were in his eyes. ‘i am going back to South Carolina to raise hogs and hominy until the war its men?’’ is over he said. ‘I will not fight the old flag.

It was so with Johnston. In 1861 he was quartermaster general, but old Si- mon Cameron transacted all his bus- mess with subordinate officers. At last Johnston went to him. *Mr. Secretary,’ he said, *you pay no at- tention to me.’ ‘No.’ was the reply. ‘you are a Virginian, and sympathize with the rebels.’ ‘I do not,’ ed Johusion, ‘but I shall resign, rath- lk cause T have any desire to answer- er than be ignored. is not be-| join the south,” Yet im three months he had commission old drifted into a general's in Dixie. now, not less than 75. BRAGG AND HIS GUNs. “Bragg died several years ago Tohnston is an man at} his home in North Carolina. I knew him in the Mexican He captain of artillery thea. and one of army. But he was a martinet, aud his men hated him At Monterey some ot them bid a lighted six-ounce shell under his bed. The explosion blew Bragg 100 feet and wrecked the tent, but he was not hort. And yet they had During the battery carned its guidons. was the bravest men in the a sortot pride in him. whole war his old *Bragz’s Artillery’ on Some of the volunteers were. mad about it, but it was in vain. Ma- gruder died ten years ago.

Bull Run, where he lost a leg. He was eted for his bravery at Cherubusto. There was Hardee. He was a lieu- tenant colonel of dragoons at 39, but he went south with the rest. After the war he started the first orange plantation in Florid So it was brev- nd died there three or tour years ago. Price is, dead. So is Dick Taylor. Taylor | was Jefferson Davis’s brother-in-law and was made lieutenant general on that account. WITH SOUTHERN wivEs. “Pemberton lived out the remnant of his days at Philadelphia. He never recoyered trom his surrender | to Grant at Vicksburg. Ot the tew | northern men who joined the rebels | he was one, but his wife was south- j j | ern and carried him over. Another case was Roswell Ripley, of Onio. He was a West Point graduate, and did well in Mexico. His wite was a South Carolina woman. That was the secret ot his choice. Dur- ing the war he commanded Fort Sumpter, and defended it bravely. I am told that he and Quincy A. Gil- more were boys together in the same If that was neighorhood in Ohio. thought it so they must have when Gilmore sat down Island to shell Ripley out ot ter. Floyd Buchanan’s secretary ot war, never came to the surface after his midnight desertion of Fort Don- elson. Pillow, his comrad in that trip, lived on his plantation in Ten- nessce a few years after hostilities He had been a major gen- eralinthe Mxican war, and dii creditable service there. I believe he was President Polk's law partner, of on Sump- ceased. and got the appointment that way. PLUCKY PICKETS. The plucksest man in the war was George Pickett. Hewas a young second lieutenant just from the aca- demy in 1846, and was assigned to a department in Washington territo— ry, of which old Gen. Harney was in command. We were quarreling then over the boundery. Harney put Pickett on San Juan island, which commands Puget sound. He held it agains. an English squadron, and it has never been fost. Pickett commanded a division at Gettysburg under Longstreet. His assault of the third day was the greatest charge of that fight. We drove them back, but Pickett came nearer winning that fight than it 1s pleasant to think of. Yes, he is dead. LIST OF THE. LIVING. “Of those who are now. alive.
