his name famous Capt. Ca1aon-who, as our

battle Of Pittsburgh Landing formerly resid-
ed in Chicago, and WAS student In the law
office Of Andrew Garrison, Esq. One
year ago he enlisted in one OF the
batteries Of Light artillery which
went from this city, for the three months
service, but very soon became successfully
engaged in the most hazardous Of all military
duties, that Of scout, in which capacity he
won for himself an enFiable position In the
esteem Of General Grant. He Was the espe-
cial fa7orite Of the General, and WAS soon ap-
pointed Captain Of scouts. His peri1ous 3D.
ventures and miraculous escapes, while in the
service, would make up Vo1une more inter
esting than almost any fiction Of the age. He
met his death from cannon ball, which took
of his head, while in the act Of imparting
some valuable information to Gen Grant.
The committees appointed at the meeting
Last evening are to meet at half past sevcn this
evening, at the fremont House, to make their
