When the war broke out he was in charge of the Coast Survey Department in Washington, and was se- lected by the government to command the regiment of District militia which was at that time raised and gent te guard the line of the Upper Potomac. In thie empley- ment he displayed great energy and capacity, and,on the regiment being mustered out of service, he wus offered tha culonelcy of a velunicer regiment.

Major General Isaac Ingalls jens, better known as Governor Stevens, of Washington Territory, and who died gloriously in one of the recent sangulnary bat- sles, was, up to the time of his joining the Se- cond brigade of the Southern Expe-lition, under General Sherman, the commander of the remnant of the gallant Seventy-ninth Highlanders, most of the o'licers of which have been until very recently prisoners in the South. He ‘was about forty-five years of age, aud was born in An- dover, Mass. He entered the Military Academy at West Foint in the year 1835. He graduated at that justitution ‘om the 30th of June, 1839, as the first scholar of his class, standing so high above all othera that it is sald there were fifteen degrees between himself and the cadet next jo rank. In that class we find the names of Major Gencrais Halleck and Ord, Brigadier Generals Ricketts, Paine; Camby aad others now in ihe Uniou army. Upon leaving ‘West Point, July, 1839, be was appointed a second hieu- tenant of the Engineer corps, and was for severai years employed in superintending the construction of scacoart fortifications, one of which was tho important fort near Bucksport, upon Pe Penobscot river.

He assisted in the United Atates Coast Survey of tho Atlantic, or what is otherwise kuown as the Geodetic Survey of the Coast of the United States, siuce 1819, and when General Pierce became President he was piacea in charge of the Paciile Railroad survey. Io he resigueds bis connection with the army, on being appomted Governor of Washington Territory ‘and Commiseioner of Indian Aitaire. In 1857 he retur ed as a delegate to Congress.

Governor Steveus was in Washington Territory, and im the remotest part when to heard of the attack on Sumter.

His division was next trans- forred to Virginia, and in the second battle on the field where the gallant Cameron fell, and where so muny of tho gallant Highlanders have shed their biood, General Ste- ‘vens has laid down bis life fur bis country. A very affecting incident connected with the deceased took piace during the battle in which he lost bis life. In j the early part of the action, Captain Stevens, on of the General, aud his division o_O was wouuded and laid General was informed of bi burt. ‘Not dan- gerously,”? was the reply. ‘Then tell him,” said the General, as he wiped away a tear, “that Thave thou- sands of lives depeniling upon me, and! therefore can- + not stop te condole with him now. I will see him aiter j the astion is over.’ This was told the son, who repiied— | “Certainly he cannot stop now; he has too many lives on his hands.
