name and age of Joseph VIII on that list,
and from that he entered it on has list.
But the very manner of his call

and Ferryville- Frank Cheathan" as we
used to know him, and as We all still love
to call him. Last but not least in the
bright galaxy, he stood pre-eminent as a
warrior and General. He was elegantly
attired in q suit of blue, and mounted on
splendid and spirited charger, was dis
tinguishing feature in the cortege of the
President in the review.
There was host of other Generals
Brigadiers and Oolonels commanding brig
ades-whose gallant services in the present
war have already endeared them to the
hearts of their cOuntrymen, and whose
bright names will live forever in the me-
mory Of the people of the South.
The division of Gen. Breckenridge was
first reviewed-the President, followed by
the Corps and Division Generals, the Brig
adler Generals of the command, and their
staff officers, riding down the lines at full
gallop. The General of each division rode
on the right of the President, and their re-
spective divisions were drawn up for re-
view. The men, in open ranks, stood with
arms presented officers saluting them
and the regimental bands playing, each
band taking it up in succession as the cor
tege passed. The regiments were then
wheeled into column, and "passed in re-
view " before the President.
AS he sat there on his horse, and those
gallant spirits, the heroes of many a we'll
contested field, the survivors of many a
dreadful march and battle, passed before
him to the martial measures of the bands,
fancied his eye to kindle and his features
to tighten up with the natural enthusiasm
of soldier when he looks upon such a
scene. No doubt it awakened within him
memories of his own experience in the
tented field. He certainly looked the SOL
der on this occasion, and every inch the
President of a nation of warriors.
Cheathams division and Wither's divis-
ion, with the artillery commands belong
ing to each, also passed in review, and
thus the ceremony concluded. The men
never looked in better condition, and
seemed never before to have marched with
lighter step or more soldierly carriage
With few exceptions, they were comforta-
bly,, though not altogether uniformly clad
Their arms and accoutrements, generally,
were in unexceptionable condition, and
their manpuvres executed with the skill
almost Of regulars.
His EXcellency the President expressed
his qualification at their fine appearance
and discipline, and congratulated the COM
manders present upon the efficiency of
their respective commands.
The President returned the next day to
Chattanooga. From whence he will pro-
badly proceed to Mississippi to review our
armies in that portion of the Confederacy.
