BDECHUBIDGE NOT DEAD. 5
The telegraph on Saturday last appears
to have consigned the rebel General
Bbbokihridoe to a premature grave. The
dispatch, to a “Union League,’’ deacrib
ing his death, was denounced ha being of
ficial, and waa.quite circumstantial in ils
revelations concerning it. He had been
bidly wounded in the terrible battle of
Binggold, and died from the effects of the I
wound. After reading this “reliable in
telligence’’ we concluded that there was
an end of one of the rnoßt remarkable
men who had taken up arms against our
government—a government to which he
had been indebted for bo many and such
brilliant favors. But it turns out that
John C. Bbeokinbidob, (according to an-1
other reliable dispatch, published yester* I
day) was serenaded at Dalton, Georgia, I
since the time of his reported departure I
for another world. So the next we hear I
of him will be, perhaps, that he is at the I
head of his brigade, receiving and resist-1
ing the impetuous charges of our forces I
under the heroic Grant. I
Well, is as much entitled 1
to contribute his share to telegraphic sec- I
sation reports u as another man.” Jeff, j
Davis, during the first year of the rebel-1
lion, was seen dead at least half a dozen I
times. Once he waa known to be on his I
road to Mexico, and another time he was
seen falling trom his ‘‘gallant gray,” mor
tally wonnded, in one ot the Virginia en
gagements. Bxaubeoakd has been dead
and crazy, alternately, every month since
the rebellion began ; while Alexander
Stephens, the rebel Vice-President, was
certainly on his way to Paris, while he
waa lying siok at home in the interior of
Georgia. Gen. Bam Houston, who is, I
we believe, really dead at last, freqoently I
suffered the pains of dissolution, and un-1
derwent that solitary journey, through I
“the valley and -shadow of death,” until I
that grim ferryman, of whose labors
gloomy old poets nsed to write bo much]
abour, refused to carry him to his 6nal
destination. Bat no matter where the I
spirit of ‘ old Sam ' may be wandering; I
or whether it is doomed to be blown about I
by uncertain and unsteady tempests; or I
whether it reposes in bliss perpetual, we
merely wish to declare that the world,
and especially Texas “could have spared
a better man.l
But Bbecelnblbge is still the true and
perf eat image of life itselt. Instead of
lying Btiff and stark, he is hob nobbing in
a secure spot in Georgia, making stately
speeches to his comrades, complimenting
the demolishing large quanti
ties of his favorite distillation, no: the I
wine' of Cyprus, but that hilarious and
stimalating beverage, the product of
Bourbon county, Ky. This renowned
distillation, although not capable itself of
winsing battles, has been the cause of en-1
abling its votaries to sack many a city. I

succeeding year revealed new enlarged

the year 1860. Then, on my way to the
National Capitol I descended the Erie

the cities that had grown up on their

to avenge the past a:, to provide for the
future. We append an extract:
