9th, TIVE days after, we find Gen. Gea.
rys name mentioned in connection with
his division. After this time, during
the Que huno2red days of.fghttng, to the
fall of Atlanta, his name does not occur
Had he performed anything worthy of
note, his egotism would have in some
way then given him tho notoriety. His
name appears again in the organization
for the march eastward, simply as COM
mander of q division. From that time
until Sherman arrived at Savannah it
occurs but three times, and then only az
to the position of his division. He is
not represented as having taken any
part in the many skirmishes with the
enemy. But we now approach the eli
max of their absurdities -" General
Geary led in the advance on Savannah
and received the surrender of the City,
In all seriousness, what is there in all
this to his credit. The city had already
been surrendered to Gen. Sherman by
the civil authorities, the confederate
forces having fled the night previous
Although Geu. Geary's division was
next to Savannah Rivcr, over which the
enemy had to cross, and the same day
their retreat was heard on his front, he
kept shady, and for some reason per-
haps, seemed to be incapable Of compre-
hending it.
As to Gen. Gcary governing the city;
in manner satisfactory, after its occu.
pancy by the Union troops, is matter
that might be of the circumstantlal or
der. If destroying ali the fences
around the public parks and cemeteries,
the destruction of shade and ornamental
trees along the thoroughfares, together
with the total destruction by fire Of
more than one-fouth Of the best part Of
the city through neglect, can be called
good administrative capabilities, then he
D is entitled to it.
1t is in vain that We follow the for.
