AIePherson on arnnt.

General Mcpherson, who fell MORALLY
wounded near Atlanta, Georgia. was for a
time member of Grants military family.
and served through the memorable Yicks-
burg campaign as commander of the Sew
enteenth Army Corps. He was regarded
as next to Grant and Sherman, the ablest
General in the Union army. He has left
the following record, written but a short
time before his untimely death, of his opin-
ion of Grant and Sherman:
General U. S. Grant regard as one of
the most remarkable men of our country.
Without aspiring to be genius, or posses
sing those characteristics which impress one
torcibly at first sight, his sterling good
sense, calm judgment, and persistency of
purpose more than compensate for those
dashing, brilliant qualities which are apt to
captivate at first glance.
To know and appreciate General Grant
fully, one ought to be member of his mill
tary family. Though possessing a remark
able reticence as far as military operations
are concerned, he is frank and affable, con.
verses well, and has peculiarly retentive
memory. When not oppressed with the
cares OF his position, be is very fond Of
talking, telling anecdotes, etc. .r
His purity of character is unimpeachable,
"hh vi bn6 ihUsb cAdlNtu klNu.
He is generous to fault, humane, and
true and steadfast friend to those he
deems worthy of his confidence, and he can
always be relied on In case of emergency.
General W. 7. Sherman is what might be
called brilliant man, possessing broad
and comprehensive intellect. A rapid
thinker and ready writer, fertile in his re-
sources and untiring in his exertions, he
possesses those characteristics which forci-
bly, impress you at first sight. He has
mingled largely with the world, and has
tried various professions has read and re-
Elected much, and having a remarkably
retentive memory, is well informed on
most subjects that come within the scope
of human thought, He Is of more ex-
citable temperament than General Grant,
and more apt to be swayed by impulses,
though his judgment is not so cool and re-
liable. In other words, though a more
brilliant man, he does not possess that
sterling good common sense which pre-
eminently distinguishes General Grant.
He is, however, most brave and gener-
GUS man, thoroughly in earnest, and ready
to sacrifice everything for the good of his
country. he is true friend, and thor
oughly unselfish.
