ZOE JOHNSTON.

Joseph f. Johnston had great deal Of
the military spirit that prevailed the corps,
and which was infused by Major Worth.
He was not remarkable for his studious
habits, and belonged to fast set Of which
myself was an active member. Few Of
tina: set escaped arrest confinement and
court-martial Joe Johnston was one Of
those genial spirits that gave zest to a
cadets life Full of ambition and desire
to excel, he was ever ready to join scout
ing party TO Buttermilk Falls, the residence
of the immortal Lenny Hayens. His APP
pearance was very military, and when under
arms 40 man looked more the soldier. He
was very expert in the manual of arms, and
carried his muskei so perpendicular that it
loaned a little too much TO the front.
Though we recognized his talents then, We
little dreamed he had the military genius
he has since displayed as a commander.

Rebel Generals as Boys at West Point.
"An Old Dragon" is writing a series Of
interesting sketches for a Richmond paper,
giving "reminiscences Of cadet life at the
West Point Military Academy. The fol-
lowing are extracts:
SIDNEY JOHNSTON.
"The first cadet l ever heard give the
word Of command was Sidney Johnston,
and the impression his appearance made
on me is as clear and distinct now as it
was then. His stalwart form and well de-
veloped muscles gave him an appearance
of great strength, while his gentle man
ners and benevolent countenance indicated
a man Of the tenderest affections. Hard to
arouse to anger, be was ever ready to es-
pouse the cause Of the oppressed. His no
bic nature endeared him to his fellow ca
diets and his associates in after life. On
one of the fairest pages Of history must be
written the deeds of this gallant soldier

Nv old friend and classmate, John B.
Magruder, was perhaps the most elegant
and distiague cadet al the academy in that
day, and do not believe West Point has
ever had his equal. He was a frst-rate
soldier, of fine appearance, and very strict
when on duty as "officer Of the day never
failing to report the slightest violation of
regulations, even though the delinquent
was his most intimate friend and room
mate. This trait in his character have
reason to know from personal experience

ROBERT f. LEE.

Robert +. Lee held the two offices in
the corps usually filled by the best soldiers
Of the class-sergeant-majOr and adiutant.
He discharged the duties Of these offices
with zeal and fidelity. His personal APP
pearance surpassed in manly beauty that of
any other cadet in the corps. Though firm
in his position and perfectly erect, he
had none of the stiffness so often assumed
by men who affect to be very strict in their
ideas Of what is military. His limbs, beau
tiful and symmetrical, looked as though
they had come from a turning lathe; his
step was as elastic as if he spurued the
ground upon which he trOd. He was noted
among his classmates as a great student,
and as having passed through the trying
ordeal of military school without single
demerit mark. q generally got one hun
bred and fifty a year, During Bob Lees
stay at West Point, | am satisfied that
he never swore an oath, tasted a drop Of
ardent spirits, nor nsed the weed in any
shape or form. The same virtues of alb
stinence my be attributed to Charles Ma
son, but / think Charley occasionally let
slip an oath at least be looked as if he
did. Mason was in Lees class, and intel
lectually had no superior at the Point. How
well / can recollect his bright, piercing
eye, cleaning and swapping with excite
ment as he stood at the black board demon
strating some intricate and beautiful math-
ematical problem. Mason early left the
army, and has since sought and gained
that distinction in civil life which his tai
ents and pure character entitled him to.
He was for a long time Commissioners Of
the Patent Office, chosen for his scientific
attainments, and filled with ability for sew
eral years place on the Supreme Bench
of Iowa.
