 We have always held 'rebels," if in the right, high in estimation. Davis stood too high to have came down to sinecureship in a mercantile house, is true but it is more matter of concern to himself than others though others feel humillated. But there are other Generals of the South who have washed in the same pool The difference between them and Northern Generals is this-the former entered the war for principles, too many of the latter for pay.

Kate Raymond was the only daughter Of

Possessing a warm, loving heart, Kate took

No one ever met her, and went away, feeling
other than love for her
The years Of girlhood had been spent in
fearful, trying scenes. Her father commanded
division in Lees army; and for three years,
Mrs. Raymond and Kate lived in Richmond.
While there, all the horrid paraphcrnaia OF
