I met him again, he was trudging along,
His knapsack with chickens was swelling,
He'd "Bleakered" these dainties and thought it no
wrong,
From scans absent Secessionist's dwelling:
"What Regiment's yours, and under whose flag
Do you fight?" said I, touching his shoulder ;
Turning slowly around he, smilingly said,
For.the thought made - him stronger and bolder,
•9 fights mit Sigel."
The next time I sew him his knapsack was gone,
His cap and canteen were miss ug ;
Shell. shrapnel and grape and the swift rifle hal l
Around him and o'er him were biasing.
"Beware you my friend, and how hare yon been,
And for whet and for whom are you fighting ?"
Ile said. as a shell from the enemy's gun
Sent his arm and his musket a '-kit rig,"
"I fights mit Sigel,"
And once more I se NC him and knelt by his side,
His life blood was vividly flowing,
irvbispered of home, wife, children and friends,
The bright land o which he was going.
"And have you no words for the dear ones at home,
The 'wee ono,' the father or mother 1"

Generals of the Southwest.
BUELL.—Major-Gene'ral Don Carlos
Buell is five feet seven inches, straight,
well built, gray haired - ; perhaps for
ty-five years of age. In his inter
course with his subordinates he is
cold, rather pompous, maintaining an
air of superiority in accordance with
his position. Re speaks deliberately,
With exceeding caution. When he
finishes his conversation, which is
generally, brief, you are no better
formed of his real sentiments or wish.
es than when you commenced listen
ing to him. His friends claim for him
great administrative powers, but con
cede that he is not up to the times in
vigor and dash. Ile is very method
icel in the details of his department,
hild when asked to vender an account
of its condition, can do so very quick
ly and concisely. I think his great
ness—if he has any—is on details
rather than in front of the enemy.—
Ile might be a better man, than he is
I hcipe he will.
ItcsEtrtaivs.- - Major General Wil
liam Starke Rosecrans is about live
feet eight incheS, firmly built,—his
shape displaying his German origin—
his motions are tiliierr i his mind almost
intuitive. HiS age IS about forty4tWo.
Ills face is weather worn, but bear's a.
warm, cordial style, which never
le IY. hen Conyers! rig I looks
you square'in the face:' Tifereris: no
air of superiority in his manner, he
approaches you as a friend; talks in
you as a friend,
_and• bids' you ;bbd
day as a friend. His orders to offi
cers are given with a pleasant recog•
nition of their rights. He cannot but
be popularit is constitutional. lie
has now a big job on his hands, but it
will be clone in a soldierly manner.
CiaTTENDEN.—Major General Thos.
L. Crittenden (son of Hon. John J.)
is perhaps thirty-eight years of age,
five' feet nine inches; little in form,
and active in motion; his hair, eyes,
and beard aro quite dark, his face
weather beaten, bearing a strong 're
semblance to his father's. Gen. C. is
mild mannered, gentlemanly, and
knows everybody; has a cordial shake
of the hand and a pleasant word for
all, in fact a true Kentucky gentle
man. As an officer he' is without
pretensions,exceedingly popular with
his officers and men ; is a good, not a
great, soldier, and 1 think an honest,
true-hearted patriot.
RosseAu.--Here are form and fea
tures that give the world assurance
of a man. Major General Lovell
Roseseau, in form and feature, is prob.!,
ably the most conspicuous general in
the American army. He is full six
feet two inches in height, of heavy,
muscular frame, at the same time,
lithe andand active. His face says
fight all over it. He is dark
featured, big whiskered, and eyes like
coal" of fire, and a nose decidedly of
the pugilistic curve. He loves the
Union and hates rebels like snakes.
He led the first regiment of Union
soldiers'into the city of Louisville af
ter the war began—the Louisville le.:
gion. Ile did this against the pro
test of large numbers of influential
tender footed Unionists, who feared
that the bloody scenes enacted at
Baltiruore would be re=enacted. tut
be told them he was prepared for the
issue, and should seek it. His regi
ment was not molested, but On the
contrary was received with the most
marked manifestation of gratification:
It was a great blow for the Union
cause in Kentucky. After that, day
Breckinridge, Clay, Preston, and oth
er secessionists, deemed it valorous to
get out of the State. Gen. 'Rossean
hag just been
_made a Major General.
it should havo been done a year ago.
He has won more honors and received
smaller recognition than any other
general in the western army. There
are no ifs or buts in his Unionism.

his longitudd=weighs about one hun

on potentates of that age who died
shortly after marrying a young wife,
on his death-bed required his eldest
son to marry his step mother, so she
should not lose the dignity ()tit qUeen.
The young man refused because he
had already a sweetheart, but his fa
ther forced hiM to swear he would do
it, under penalty of death. The old
king died, and the son married his
step•niother. But the sweetheart of
the prince, - who was herselfa princess
of some power, demurred to the ar
irdngeMent, and inside War- upon her
lover, assisted_ by her brother, (king
of East England.) The young king
thus manaced, marched against his
old sweetheart, but was defeated in
battle, and in his fight Was captured
by his conquerors, bound, and brought
before his offended .mistress with a
view, to execution. She. covered him
with reproaches for his breach of
faith, but offered to spare his. life on
condition that he wnuld.immediately
repudiate his step-mother and marry
her. It is unnecessary to add that
the young king preferred•this arrange
ment to .any of the numerous modes
of execution at that - time prevalent,
that the stepmother was packed off
to her father, the French king, and
the young couple were duly married,
and lived happily ever afterwards. •
GENERAL HINDMAN BLOWN MC—
-4-Uißt, before the - retreat Occurred one
of the mast remarkable incidents of
the- battle; few more wonderful are
on record. General Hindman, than
wheal: rio more fearless, dashing or.
brave man is found in the' rebel ser
vice, was leading his men in a fearful
struggle for the possession of al-aver
able position,: when a shell from the
rebel batteries,, striking- bis horse in
the breast and passing into his body,
exploded.- The horse was blown in
to fragtnents, and the rider, with his
saddle, lifted some ten feetrin the
air. His staff did not doubt that
their General was killed, and some
cried On t, "General Hindman is blown
to pieces."
SearZely was the cry uttered,iwhen
Hindman sprang to his feet andshout
ed : "Shut up, there, I am worth two
dead men yet. Get me another horse."
To the amazement of evert- one, he
was but little bruised. His heavy
and strong cavalry saddle, and proba
bly the bursting of the shell down
ward, saved him. In a minute he was
on a new horse and rallying his men
for another dash. A man of less in
flexible and steel-like frame would
probably have been so jarred and
stunned by the shock as to be unable
to rise; he,. although covered with
blood and' dust, kept, his saddle dur
ing the remainder of the day, and
performed prodigies of valor. But
no, heroism df dfficers or men • could
avail to stay the advance of the *Fed
eral troops.

tel. About thirty years ago, some
one made the discovery that the ice:
fields of ,Siberia contained an itn
linens° number of fossils of elephants
and mastodons. Where they came
from, htfw thtiy got there, is a
problem Which perhaps may never
be solved; their existence; however,
was nO.illilmeta, and as ivory is one
of the most valuable tibmthedities of
trade in all nations, some utilitarian
Englishman Cendtived the idea of
turning these vestiges of a former
epoch to_profitable account. Accord
ing, about the year iS4S, Thompson,
Benner & Co., a rich - London firm,
fitted out an expedition to leek for
ivory in Siberian ice. -N'ovel and in
credible as it seethed, the expedition
was crowned with success. The ship
returned to England richly laden with
the choicest ivory; and even at the
present time, although the world
knows little out it, the ivory mar
ket is mainly supplied from the ice
:field of Siberia.
"KISS 1131 AND LET Hull Go.•'—
Many years ago 1 went with a friend
(we were making a _Northern trip)
into the gallery of a church in the
cer►tral city, of New York, where an
-Abolition Convention was assembled.
The President was the facetious and
talvnted Alvan Stewart. The body
of the Convention wasas ring streak
ed and speckled as Laban's lambs,
cOntai fling a strong sprin kling of black
spirits and white.. As we enteral
they were taking a-contribUtion for
the good cause.
Each denor went up to the secreta
ry's desk and deposited his dole; and
the President, with closed eyes and
ludicrous large face, - 'announced very
loud, after the - secretary, the name of
each contributor and the amount sub
scribed. Presently some one sent up
a little pickaninny, black as the ace
of spades., and nst large enough to

pluse.:: Out tieannouncement ; but
the President, glancing down and
then shutting his eyes, shouted, "One
dollar from an unknown American in.

go l" At which idea the President
himself, after a stolid, sober pause,
shook his vast . sides incontinently
with htughter, and we vamosed.
BOOK COOKINO.-1 once knew a
mistress who undertook to instruct
her cook in the French mystery of
making a Souffle. She went into the
kitchen with Miss Leslie's" Five Hun
dred. Receipts" in her band, read the
directions to the cook, watched the
mixture of ingredients, and gave pre
eise.orders concerning the length Of
time necessary for the delicate prepa
ration to remain:pi the oven.: It wan
brought on thd table sadly deficient
•in all the, essential properties of
Souffle. -Talking of it afterward, the
cook .laughed heartily; and said :
"Now; -MiSsue, if you'll - . pet let me
alone, and not bring your book and
your big words here, Pll make dat ar
Souppley de right sort; bekasie I'll
make it common sense way."' Ac
cordingly, the next clay the table was
supplied with an Omelette Souffle
worthy of the chef-de-cuisine, Soyer
himself. Her mistress was wont to
say ever afterward that Aunt Kitty's
"common sense" cooking was the
best, for it never failed ; sthieb was
more than she could say of her direc;

Ex-President Thichanan's
Second Letter to Gen. Scott.
To the Editors of the Notional Intelligenerr
With a few remarks I shall close the
controversy with Gen. Scott, into which
I have been most reluctantly forced by his
voluntary and unexpected attack. This
has, neverthelez;s, afforded me an. oppor
tun'ty of eurreeting many unfounded re
ports which I had long borne in patience
and in silence. In my answer, I have al=
ready furnished clear and distinct respon.
5(...5 to all the allegations of Gen. Scott ;
and in his rejoinder he has not called iii
question any of my Statements, with a
Siogle exception. Which of us is correct
in this particuhir depends Upon the ques
tion whether his recolleclion of an event
which occurred more thab eighteen
Months ago, or the statement of Mr. Holt;
reduced to writing on the very day, is
entitled to the greater credit.
•.
The General. in the introduction ofhis
rejoinder; assigns as an excuse for the
criticism oh my public conduct that this
was merely incidental to his alleged offi
cial report to President Lincoln on the
condition of our fortifications, and was
not primarily intended for myself. Frani
this statement one would conelude that
he had made such a report. But where
is this to be found 1 For it he refers to
the Intelligencer of the 21st October ; but
there I discover nothing but his letter of
four points to Mr. Seward, dated on the
3d March, 1861, advising the- incoming
President hOw to guide his administra
tion in face of the threatening dangers to
the country. In the single introductory
sentence to this letter he barely refers to
his "printed views," [dated in October,
1860,] which had been long before the'
public; hut it contains nothing. like ali
offidial report on the condition of the Or;
tifications.
Whether the intrditidion of this fitter
to the public; without the consent of Pres
ident Lincoln, by One of the General's
friends, in a political speech during a
highly excited gurernatorial canvass, had
influenced him to prepare his criticism on
my conduct, it is not for me to determine.
At what period did General Scott obtain
the six hundred recruits to which he re
fers in his rejoinder I This was certain=
ly after the date of his "views," on the
30th October, 1860 ; becatige in these ho
states emphatically that the forces then at
his command were •'in all five compa
nies" only within reach to garrison - or re
inforee the [nine] forts mentioned in the
"views."
Did he obtain these recruits in Novem
ber 1 1f so had he visited Washington or
Written and explained to me in what man=
ner this military operation could be ac~
complished by the four himdred. men in
the five cdmpanies and the bix hUri
dred recruits, I should have given his rep
reSentations all the consideration eminent:-
lY due to his high military reputation.
But he informs us he did not arrive in
Washington until the 12th of December.
His second recommendation to garrison
' these torts nifftt consequently have been
made, according to his 'own statement,
on the 13th, 15th, 2.Bth,er 30th ofDecem
ber; or on more than one Of those days.
At this period the aspect of public affairs
had greatly changed from what it was in
October. Congress was now in session,
and our relationt With the Seceding c-ot
ton States had been placed before them
by the President's message. Proceed
ings had b'ebil InStitinecl by that body
with a view to g compromise otthe dan
gerous questions between the North and
the South ; and the highest hopes and
warmest aspiratiens *ere then entertain
ed for their success. Under these vie;
comstance3 it was the President's .duty.
to take a broad view of the condition of
the whole country, in all its relations,
civil, industrial, and commercial, as well
as military; giving to each its appropri
ate ibthience. It was only from such a
combination that he could frame a policy
calculated to preserve the
_peace and to '
consolidate the strength or the Union.—;
Isolated recommendations proceeding
from one department. without weighing
well their effect upon the '' oeneral policy,
ought to be adopted with extreme cau
tion.
Bdt it Sisems from the rejoinder that
Secretary Floyd, at Richmond, had claim
ed the honor of defeating General Scott's
"plans and solicitations respecting the
forts," "it being there," Says the General;
"universally admitted that but for that
victory over the there could have been
no rebellion," 'Phis is, in plain English,
that the secessionists of the Cotion States;
Who have since brought into the field
hundreds of thousands of undoubtedly
brave soldiers, would have abandoned
in terror their unlawful and rebeilibus
designs. had General Scott distributed
among their httnierotis forts four hun
dred and eighty men in October or one
thoUsand men in December This re: ,
quires no comment. 1 have never been
able to obtain a copy of the speech of Mr.
Floyd, at Richmond, to whieh I presume
Gen. Scott refers ; but I learned, both at
the time and since, from gentlemen of
high respectability, that in this same
speech he denounced me most bitterly for ..
my determination to stand by and sus'
tain the Union with all the power I poS
-1 sessed under the Constitution and the
laws.
And heie permit me to remark that it
is due to General Scott as well as my-.
self to deny that there is any portion of
my answer which justifies the allegation
that "the ex-PreSident sneers at my
'weak device' (the words 'weak device'
being marked as a quotation) for saving
the forts." Th is mistake I must attriz
bute to his "accidental visitor."
And in this connection I emphatically
declare that the General, neither before
hor after the publication of his "views,"
in the National Intelligencer of the 18th
January, 1861, without mY consent, as:
signed any reason to ale for making this
publication, or ever even alluded to the
subject. In this I cannot be mistaken,
from the deep impression which the occur:.
rence made Upon mY memory, for the
reasons already mentioned in my antwer.
Should have nothing more to add had
den. Scott, in his rejoinder, confined him-
