supporting the roof, the walls literally Gov

KENTUCKY CONSERVATISM.

A humorous writer in the Sunday Mer-

seryatism
Upon quitting the Straw berry Festival
I returned post haste again to Paris, where
| arrived just in time to start with Capt
Bob Shorty and company from the Copic
Section of the Mackerel Brigade on for
aging expedition We went to look up
few straw beds for the feeding ofthe Anatom-
ical Cavalry horses, my boy, and the con-
servative Kentucky chap went along to see
that we did not violate the constitution nor
the rights of man.
1t is my opinion, conrad, says Capt
Bob Shorty, as we started Quits my
opinion my Union ranger, that this here
unnatural war is getting worked down toa
very fine point when we can't go out for
an armful of forage without taking the

Having moved along in gorgeous cavalcade
until about noon, we stopped at the house
of First Family of Virginia, who were
just going to dinner. Captain Bob Shorty
ordered the Iackerels to stack arms and

and then we entered the domicil and salu-

After the close Of the war he was, for
six months, Assistant Professor of Mathe-
maties at West Point, and for l6 months
afterwards Secretaryto the Artillery Board,
during which he was engaged in testing
heavy ordnance and compiling tactics for
heavy artillery. Various enployments
succeeded, in all which he brought to bear
judgment, good scientific attainments and
industry. He WIS for time on the Colst
Survey, and then on typographical duty in
the West; for year engaged in building q
military road from Big Sioux river to ST.
Paul, Minnesota. From 1854 to 1857 he
was stationed at Frankfort Arsenal, near
Philadelphia. He was afterwards Chief
Ordnance Officer to General Johnston in the
Utah Expedition, and remained there till
1859, when he was detached and sent to the
Mount Vernon Arsenal, Alabama. He
was afterwards stationed at Leavenworth,
Kansas, where he was when the rebellion
broke out.

General Burnside himself to accompany

unvarying gallantry and conduct the choice

sidered one of the bravest and most prom

sides army was brought up from North
Carolina, Reno was put in command of a

to mourn his loss.
A younger man than Kearney, he bade
fair to become as splendid a soldier as that

army and the country lost one whom We
could not well spare.

THE LITTLE GIRL THAT MEETS ME.

There's little girl that meets me,
And with laughter ever greets me,
And to kiss her oft entreats me,
As stray
Long the path of life, so dreary,
Where the saddened heart and weary,
Shades the sunlight, shining near me,
On my way.
She has eyes as blue as heaven;
tonly aged about eleyeu;
But unto her God has given
Such a heart,
That forever she is singing.
And her sweet voice ever ringing,
Beauty DER the rapt heart bringing,
Sweet as art.
With her sunny hair, so curly;
With her teeth, so white and pearly,
have met her, late and early,
BY the way.
And take her hand, and press IL
In my own, just to caress it
Pretty little hand-God bless it ~
do say.
May the world smile kindly on her,
Benedictions fall upon her,
Angels be her guard of honor,
As she goes
Through this world of ours, singing,
Peace to troubled spirits bringing,
No grief her pure heart wrngng
With its woes.
May the sweetest harp in heaven
Brightest crown that e'er was given,
Where the waves of life are driven
Past the throne
Echo to her dainty finger,
'Pon her pure brow ever linger,
While each angel be singer,
Calling home!

THE GALLANT DEAD.
MAJOR GENERAL PHILIP KE4RN,

MAJOR GENERAL PHILIP KEARNY.
Major General Philip KEARNY, who
was billed at Ghantilly, in Virginia, in the
night of Monday, the Ist instant, was a
native of New Jersey. He was educated
TOR the profession Of the law, but, always
being imbued with a strong military spirit,
he joined the army in 1887 as Lieutenant
IN the United States Dragons. He serv-
ed through the Mexican war, during which
his squadron was the pride Of the service
At the very gates of the city OF Mexico
his left arm was carried away by cannon
ball. For his gallantry in that campaign
ne received the highest commentators.
Alter the war he travelled awhile, and dur
ring his stay abroad he took hand in the
Algerian war, and was an aid camp at
Soiferino to French marshal. He resign
ed his commission in our army in 1851.
When the present war broke out Gen.
Kearny was in France. lie returned at
once and rendered his services to the Gov
ernment, which created him Brigadier
General of Volunteers on the 17th of May,
1861. A few weeks since, however, he
received the commission of Major Gener-
al, having fairly won it on the bloody fields
of Williamsburg, Fair Oaks, White Oak
Swamp, Cross Roads, and Malvern Hill,
and having proved his title to it by his
more recent achievements on the Potomac.
In many of the celebrated actions of this
war General Kearny has been especially
conspicuous and distinguished On the
peninsula his splendid division was in al
most every fight. He always led his men
in person, and never allowed the front of
the battle to get much ahead of him. A
splendid officer, a fighting general, brave
soldier, patriotic citizen, his name will
live in the gratitude of the people of this
country, in support of whose integrity he
has SO nobly fallen.

GENERAL ISAAC INGALLS, STEVENS.


Gen. STEVENS, who also fell in battle
at OF antilly, near Fairfax Court house,
Virginia, on Monday night, the 1st instant,
was native Of Massachusetts, He gradu-
ated at West Point in 1880, taking the
highest rank, and entering the army as
lieutenant Of engineers. At the commence.
ment of the Mexican war he was Adjutant
of the Corps of Engineers, distinguished
himself by the most daring courage, sound
judgmentSTand professional skill, and was
twice breveted for meritorious conduct
He was severely wounded in the attack on
the city of Mexico At the close of the
Mexican war Major Stevens was attached
to the Coast Survey as principal assistant
10 Professor Bache, and had charge of the
Coast Survey Office in Washington from
lS49 to 1858, On the accession Of Cen
eral Pierce to the Presidency in 1858,
Major Stevens resigned, and was appointed
Governor of Washington Territory, then
newly organized. He was elected to repre-
sent the people Of the Territory in Con
gress, which he left to join the army at the
breaking out of the rebellion. After the
death of Col, Cameron, at the battle of
Bull Run, he was appointed to succeed
him as Colonel of the Seventy ninth New
York Regiment, (Highlanders,) lie took
part in the expedition to Port Royal, as
General Of a brigade, and participated in
the attack at James's Island, for the re-
suits of which he was not responsible
Gen. Stevens was soon afterwards ordered
with his command to reinforce Gen. Nc
Clellan on the peninsula, He returned
with him to Alexandra, in the division of
Gen. Fitz John Porter, and was appointed
to lead the advance. He fell fighting at
the head Of his men, and his loss at this
time can be but badly spared by his coun-
trymen

~ In the death of General Reno the Army
of the Union has lost one of its brightest

GEN. MANSFIELD.

The death of General Mansfield, which
the telegraph records as one of the sad re-
suits of the battle of Porterstown, will prove
a national loss, and excite national feeling
ofregret. Joseph K. Fenno Mansfield was
native of Connecticut, anG was about fifty
eight years of age. He was appointed TO
West Point Academy from that State, in
October, 1917, and passed through the re-
gular course of studies in that institution
He entered the service of the Govern
ment on the lst of July, 1922, as a second
lieutenant of engineers, and afterwards
rose to a higher position, as bis merits be-
came appreciated, In March, 1882, he
was made first lieutenant, and in July,
1882, became captain. During the Mexi-
can war Tin 1S46-7) he rose to the position
of chief engineer of the army under Gen.
eral Taylor, He was breyetted major for
gallant and distinguished services in the
defence of Fort Brown, May 8, 1916. In
the storming of Monterey he received no
less than seoen aoouads, several of which
were most severe; and for gallant and mer,
itorious conduct in those conflicts he was
honored with the rank oflieutenant colonel
His gallantry at Buena Vista won hin
his colonelcy
In the war for the Union his services,
however, have been equally conspicuous, and
they are still SO fresh in the public memory
that it is needless to recount them here.
On the 18th of May, 1861, he was COM
missioned a brigadier general il the regu-
lar army, in recognition of his distinguish
ed worth, and his subsequent career, down
to the day when he sacrificed his life to his
zeal for the cause, is a noble testimony that
the trust reposed in him by the Govern
ment was not misplaced. The death Of
General Mansfield is serious loss, not to
his immediate command alone, but to the
war bureau, and to the whole country.
