luittco liavo brought forth a labdrcd ef

Three )'eara wcro the lul1 measuro of his
exploits in that quarter of tho globe,
during which time it is claimed for him
that bid services secured the adoption of
a free Stato Constitution for California
liut the most important services that
distinguished his publio career on the
coast remains to bo studied. Here it is
reported by his friends :
"On the 1st of September, 18-10, a j
convention of Delegates assembled to
form a Stato Constitution at Monterey.
This body included tho best talent, aud
tho ripest experience in tho Territory.
Col. Geary, queer as it may seem, was
not a member, of this Convention, but
from some unaccountable circumstance
had such a controlling inCuenca upon
this body, as to havo issued a freo State
clause in tho newly framed constitu.
tion." Could anything be more absurd?
IT6 in tho name of common sense did
ho accomplish this great feat, when he
conceded to his opponents tho election
of two United States Senators to repre
sent the new State in Congress.
Put he loves office, if ho is not com.
pent to dischaigo their duties. Gov
ernor Geary may bo flattered by this
important pamphlet which we havo been
casually reviewing, but his vanity has
no limit. Stick a feather in his cap and
he will strut himself to death.
Thcro is still another item in tho ac
count of this wonderful man in his
California exploits, and it is probably,
tho most thrilling as well as most despc
rate act of his life. It is termed in this
pamphlet a perilous adventure on the
Isthmus of Tauama, on his journey to
tho Pacific. The courage of Don Quix.

Some of the natives stolo his baggage
but Geary's bravery and presence of
mind which never (?) forsakes him in
the hour of danger (as has been proven
by his courage in tho ditch at tho battle
of Chcpultepec) cam? to his relief. Ho
rushed out frantically found a nativo
in his blanket knocked hint down
took the flints out of some empty mus
kets secured his baggage again and felt
good over his victory.
But ho has a military reputation,
which his political friends have been
sending broad cast ovor tho State. A
more conglommeralcd mass of incon
gruities never have been mado public.
The Georgia Campaign alono is sufli.
cient to prove this. For our present
purpose, wo shall mate somo extracts
from a work cntttled "Sherman and his
Campaign's, page 137"
"On the 27th of October, a pontoon
bridge was thrown across the Tennessee
river. On tho following woruing before
tho enemy could recover from his sur.
prise, Hooker with his corps, had
crossed, seized tho heights ribiug from
Lockout valley, and took up position
That night, tho 28th, tho battle of
Wauhatchio was fought. The result of
this battle is claimed for Geary by his
biographical committee who are ever
engaged in and perverting the record.
Tho hif tory of it is thin. Hooker
devised tho plau for the attack, leaviu
Gen. Geary with his division in front of
the enemy's entrenched camp, while ho
with the balance of his couimaud di
verged to tho left, with express orders
to Geary not to make too slrcng a dem
onstratiou, until he was fully apprised
that Hooker was in positioa to attack in
flank. Either from vaulting ambition
or from not comprehending his orders
tho latter of which is most probable, ho
brought on au action before Hooker's
position had boon perfected. This in
discretion cost tho life of many a brave
soldier; his men fought bravoly, but to
thjsni bcloug tho honor of holding the
position for the time being, until Gen
Hooker arrived uud prevented them
from being cut to pieces. Had the
Federal army not triumphed, a coui
martial would have given a very differ
ent coloring, to that given by these
phamphlet history makers, who attempt
to give him alone the honor of this af
fair.
The history of tho engagement does
not show that his name is cirtitJed fo
any houor for the part ho took iu it. In
army parlance it was known as "Hook
era night fight" cf tho Wauhatchio
Here is ft samplo of tho absurdities of
this pamphlet, which says, "as to the
loss of tho enemy iu this engagement i
cannot fall short of fifteen hundred-'
Tho facts are, thcro wero 157 killed, and
130 taken prisoners, making tho total
loss ot the enemy 287. This the reade
will seo leaves a dLscrepcncy of 1213 to
bo accounted for in some other way than
the truth, by the history makers of Gen
Geary political campaign military ex
ploits. Not a word is said about the
loss of tho Federal array. It is n noto
rious fact, hundreds wcro slain of his
division by prematurely bringing on the
cngagomcnt in disobedience of order.
Having now disposed of Wauhatchio
wo prooeed to "Lookout Mountain," for
anottier ot b is great exploits, "luo 1
enemy weto driven by a f-ucccssion of I
terrible assaults from their redoubts, re-
dans and riflo pits" wo are also told-
This battle is alono nscribed to Geary, I
but on pago 138 of tho history of the I
campaign, the credit is given to Gen I
Hooker, to whom the glory belongs,
The most ridiculous part is that Look-
out Mountain never was fortified to any
extcnt. It was used as iH name indi-
cates, as a placo or tower of observation
by tho ctieuif . There were, however,
somo trifling fortifications made after
the battlo of Chickamagua, when Ros-
encrans had to fall back on Chattanoogs,
but these foi tifications wero no part of
tho facts with which Gen. Geary had to
do. Any one who visits tho summit of
Lookout Mouutain, look in tain for the
redoubts and redans, so formidably de-
scribed iu this abolition document. This
mountain was not taken by successive
assaults, Lilt by flanking tho enemy, and
caininir the summit several miles from I
where they weto posted. Gen. Grant
having twice crossed tho army of Ten.
nesscc over tho river, and had in post
tion beyond Chattanooga ready to attack
the enemy on Mission ridgo ; thus "look
out" surrounded ou three sides, leaving
but one open to the "rebs" from which
they mado the best possible time, "sko-
dadling" to join their main forces on
Mission ridgo. Nothing but a foiut was
mado against the position cf tho cueray,
while tho rear flank gained tho summit.
Thus the desperate fighting asnribed to
tho taking of tho mountain, don't ap
poor in the history as given us by tho
abolition Lentral vJommittco. lno largo
number of prisoners taken without the
recording of any slain, goes far to provo
the surprise and tho real character of
the fight, Gen. Gearys name, is not iu
any way connected with cither the bat
tles of Wauhatchio, Lookout Mountain,
Mission Tiidge, or Piiugold, by any his.
toriau of these campaigns.
Surely it musi have been base in&rati
tudo to havo overlooked so prominent a
character, if ho had rendered his coun.

particular stress upon these points, first,
that he "fought alone," second, that he
was "selected specially for tho arduous
work" of taking the mountain, third,
that he kept tho enemy from making a

Truly this committeo is inconsistent
id history and it is inconsistent with
truth.
At the battle of Mission Ridge, the
principal fighting of tho day was ou the
rebels right. They wero opposed by
the army of Tennessee, under Sher
man s lmmcuiate comuianu. ua tne
extreme Uuion left, is whero Gen.
Thomas pierced the rebel centre, and
oncmiau uouoieu up tr.eir rignt, x lie
command which Geary had iu charge is
tho one which should havo "watched
tho gar," but instead of this tho "rebs"
were allowed to stampede. This Ccn.
tral Committee make it out that Getr
Geary bravely pursued the enemy after
ho had let them cseap'c. At liingold
he was held at bay, uutil Gen. Sherman
had to again get hitn out of trouble.
Thus we have an exhibition of thd val
orous decdj, so' eloquently commented
upon by the abolition central committee.
This brings us down to tho closing
scene of that year, that of driving the
Confederates" out of Tennessee. The
consummation of this is again largely
ascribed to Geary, as might have been
cxpectod of tho committee. Thus
strange as it may seem, the namo of
Geary does appear in tho history ot that
campaign, as given faithfully by Cols.
Bowman and Irwin.
On the 7th of May, 1864, General
Sherman commenced the first of tho
scries of hk grand campaign. Ou the
9th, two days after, wo find Gen. Gea.
ry's name mentioned in connection witli
his division. After this time, during
the am hundred days of fffJitt'n, to tho
fall ot Atlanta, his name does not occur.
Had ho performed anything worthy of
note, his egotism would have in somo
way men given mm tno notoriety, ms
name appears again in tho organization
for tho march eastward, simply as com.
mander of a division. From that t'nno
until Sherman arrived at Savannah it
occurs but thrco times, and then only ad
to the position of his division. lie is
not represented as having taken any
part in the many skirmiBhcs with tho
enemy, l.'ut wo now approach the cli-
max of their absurdities ! " General
Geary led in tho advauee on Savannah
and received tho surrender of tho City:''
In all seriousness, what is there in all
this to his credit. The city had already
been surrendered to Gen. Sherman by
tho civil authorities, tho confederate
orccs having fled the night previous.-
Although Geo. Geary's division was
Qcxt to Savannah River, over which tho
enemy had to cross, aud the same day
their retreat was hcatd on his front, ho
kept shady, nnd for somo reason per-
baps, fceemcd to be incapable of compro.
bending it.
As to Gen. Geary governing the city;
in a manner satisfactory, after its occu
pancy by tho Union troops, is a matter
that mirht bo of tho circumstantial or.
dcr. If destroying all the fences
around the public parks and cemeteries,
tho destruction of shade and ornamental
trees aloug tho thoroughfares, together
with the total destruction by fire of
moro than ono-fouth of the best part of
the city through neglect, can be ealled
good administrative capabilities, then hef
is entitled to it.
It is in vain that wo follow tho for.'
tunes of Gen. Geary tlirougn tne Uaro.
Unas to find at least something on which
to build a military reputation. We
havo followed him down until the sur
render of Gen. Johnston and his whole
army to the victorious Sherman, with
out finding anything in tho shano of
those meritorious actions claimed for
him, by these woald-be-patriots of tli'w
abolition Stato Central Committee.
