the death Of Maj. Gen. Nelson, at Louis

General J. G. Davis, the melancholy affair
being the result Of q personal alteration
Ono Of the parties has already gone to his
last account The other Will doubtless
have hearing which will fix the full
award IN his case. It Is historical that the
deceased officer, though an efficient and
energetic commander, had these his
traits maued by persistent habits Of
brutality and hcsrtlessness In his relations

That he vas bold, prompt and thorough,
many can attest, at the same time they
urc constrained to lessen the praise due
him, by tho infelicities and brutalities that
characterized his intercourse with those
about him. Gen. William Nelson was d
