II generals, like poets, are born and not made
then the chief figure in the stirring and eventful
operations described in this volume derived an
authentic title to distinguished leadership in the
late war, from natures own hand. Whether
judged by critical analysis of his movements
and plans, or by the test Of success, no officer on
either side in the contest can be held up as a
more felicitous example Of practical generalship
and of native genius for war. The volume before
us is prepared with care and completed with
thoroughness by the accomplished writer's named
in the title page; and General Forrest. who con.
fded to them his military papers and records and
copious notes, attests under his signature the
fidelity with which they have performed their
task. An acceptable feature of the volume is Its
numerous portraits, including that of General
Forests and in other points if is brought out in
style highly creditable to the publishers.

The GRAND DrcHEss.-The Opera House over
flowed last night with one Of the most brilliant
audiences OF the season, on the occasion Of the
first presentation OF the "Grand Duchess of &C.
rolstein." The scene contrasted strangely with
al we hear and witness of hard times, depressed
business, a bankrupt State treasury, starvation
and deprecated city currency, and afforded
grateful relief to the prevailing gloom OF the
times. The play went of with admirable spirit
and grace. II is to be repeated on Monday.

The following petition, we learn, Is being cir.
culated, and numerously signed. Its object COM
mends it to all who, with large and enlightened
views, have the interests Of the city at heart II
Is very desirable that the City Park should be
made more accessible to all classes of citizens for
purposes of recreation. The proposed improve
ment Of Murat street, and the more frequent pas.
sage OF the horse cars would conduce to the con.
venience OF all, and add much to the value of the
Park. We are not personally cognizant of the
fact, but learn that the cars on the Metarie Ridge
line, run with great irregularity, accompanied
witha dsagreeable detention Of passengers at the
stables. 1t would be bettenboth for the company
and the public If this evil was corrected:
To the Mayor and Common Council Of New Orleans.
The undersigned, citizens Of New Orleans. and
property owners and residents near the City Park,
respectfully petition your honors that Murat
street be graded and ditched and bridges be CON
sructed across the crossings, from Canal street TO
the main entrance Of the City Park. This street
Is the shortest, and the only street entirely open
from Canal street to the Park and at small ex.
pense could be made good walk and drive: and
thus save picnic parties and others seeking recre
alton at the Park, ride Of more than a mile:
since at present they are compelled to go to the
Halfway House. and thence around the Metairie
Road, or out Espanade, and by the Bayou
Bridge. The proposed repairing Of this street
would also add greatly to the value Of property in
the neighbolhood of the Park, add 10 the
value Of the Park itself, and thus more than repav
the expense Of the work.
The owners Of property In this part of the CITY
pay as much taxes into the city treasury as the
owners Of the most improved portions where the
streets are paved, lighted, swept, cleaned and
guarded at the city's expense
Wherefore, in view Of what's due to the owners
OF property in this section, and of the great ben
eht II would be to the city itself, and the conye.
nence 1t would afford all classes Of citizens In yis.
