By intelligence we published ,yester-

on the lsappaliannoclk, our readers have
iearned that the celebrated StouewaIl
Jackson died on Sunday last. par,lv

effects Of the ainpntafon Of his srni.

loss TO the rsbel army for it is agreed
IN all hands that Jackson was lie M ,st
brilliant rebel General deyalop,i by
this war. From his GOODNESS and saoacs
ity, rapid movements and stubbornness :
in the fight. and his invaribls good for
tuue, heh resembled Napoleon in his
early career more than any .Jtiier Gsn>
ersl Of modern times. .. -. :.
According to t 9 estimatS formed Of
him by the Richmond Enquirer, the
specisl organ Of jeff ,rson ID ,vis. the
loss ia greater 10 the rebels than IL s'Iey'
had lost a whole division Of. their army.

Of StouewalI Jacksoa, from tue firm
ness with which he and his regiment
fought. His raid through The valley
of the Shenandoah was q mastery
stroke of strategy, for while he kept
McDowell's and Baiks' Corps emploY-s
ed, and struck terror at Washington.
By a rapid retrograds movement he ap.
peared on the battle fi,ld in The seven
days fight on the Chickah ominy, to turn
the scale just at the critical moment,
while Mcdowell was nonest, like Patter.,
son at Bull Rum Again, when Pope
was retreating from The Rapidan and
the Rappahannock. jackson, by forced
masches, gained his flank, caused terS
rible confusion; and obtained vast SPOIL,
Lastly, at the battle of Antietain, after
Harper's Ferry, he turned up
on the right flank Of our army in time
to repulse Hooker, save the remnant Of
Lees force, and prevent tbe battle from
becoming rout. Wherever jackson
appeared on any field, victory seems tor
lraSe perched upon his banners. = = E.
In HIS demeanor he is represented as
having been extremely quiet and mods
osk, plain and unostealatious in. his
dress, silent and thesghtful in his hab-
its, temperate, in bis conduct strictly
motaiI and in religion he is said to have.
been almost fanatic. He was a Uni,
versal favorite in the rebel armies. and
popular even in our own. Over his
his men he: exercised the strictest dis.
cipline, and always moved them with
the. least possible quantity of baggage
Hence, his rapid marches, and the So
briqnet BY which his troops were known
-" foot cavalry" What is cnvior,s
about the manner OF his wo,ad is that.
according to the Richmond Enquirer,
he was shot by some of his own men
which Is very probable in the smoke and
confusion Of so terrible battle, with
perhaps one part Of his line more ad.
ranced than another, and he, as he gen.
orally was, in the front of the fight
Ills death is no doubt owing less to the
wound than to his exposure in the rain
storm, and by continuing in comn,p -. =.
