The Louisville Journal makes some remarks,
from which we extract rs follows:
Speaking of Gen. Pierce's legal career, his
friend and biographer, Hawthorne, says 1t has
left few materials from which it can be written.
sThe same remark may, with great propriety,
be applied to the three grand divisions of Pierce
life-the legal, the Legislative, and the military
divisions,
"His shrewd biographer in abiding to the ca
reer of Gen. Pierce in the Senate says that Pierce,
with his usual tact and exquisite sense Of pro-
priety, saw that it was not the time for him to
step forward prominently on this highest theatre
in the land asals
I'VE fancy that II was the same exquisite
sense which kept him from displaying soldier
