Among the most honored and admired
Of the officers Of the American army,
prior TO the rebellion was ALBERT SID
EEYJ Johnson, then BFevert Brigadier Gen
eral and Colonel of the Second Cavalry.
HleE sometime he had been in service in
the Territory of Utah, and none ef his
brother officers had finer prospects than
he. But he tasted Of the fatal sorcery
of Secession, and without even the poor
excuse of going with his State, on the
Sd of May last, resigned his commission
and took service under JEFF. DAVIS.
Thousands regretted not only the loss Of
good officer, but this dishonorable conduct
in becoming a traitor. Soon after his re-
turn he was arrayed against Gen. Robert
ANDERSON, one at Bowling Green and the
other at Louisville, in the State of which
both were natives. His history from
that time, until his death in the battle of
Pittsburg, on the 9th, is well known in
this community. They witnessed his
retreat from Bowling Green to Alabama,
and followed him with excavations Mr.
ATKINS, member of the rebel Congress,
from this State, is reported to have said
in his place that a request for his removal
had been signed by all the members from
Tennessee, except Mr.. SWAN. Some gen
tlemen who met the intelligence of his
dealt, efi their way to this city, inform
ed us that The Secessionists along the
road exulted in his fate so low had he
fallen in the estimate of the people whom
he had forfeited his honor to serve. YER
