SECRETARY OF WAR.
GEN. JOHN A. RAwLINs.

| GEN. JOHN A. RAWLlNS'
Major-Gen. John A. Rawlns, the new Secretary of
! War, was born in Jo-Davies County Illinois, Feb
IS, 1881, and was reared as a farmer and charcoal
burner, which occupation he followed till 1854, when
he went to Galena, H., studied law, and was admit
ted TO the bar in 1855. He at once commenced prac
tice and continued to devote his attention to the
law until the breaking out of the war. On receiving
the news of the Bull Run disaster he engaged in rails
ing troops and on the 18th of September following
went into the service on the staff OF Gen. Grant dur
ing one of the early months of the War for the
Union lie stood by his chief from the beginning to
the end. lie heard the first gun fired at Belmont
and the last at AppOmattox. Since Lees surrender,
he has been stationed at Washington Chief Of
staff of tho Army of the United States. BY profes-
sion he is a lawyer. In politics. he was formerly
Douglas Democrat; but ever since tho firing upon
Sumter he has been an earnest Republican. Through
out the Rebellion his services 20 the General-in-
Chief and TO the cause Of tho Union were OF the
highest order Had he been assigned to field instead
of staff duty. he would doubtless have taken rank
among our few great commanGers-ShcIdan, Sher-
man, and Thomas. No other man in the country
knows the army better than'he; and the Cabinet is
fortunate in having the benefit Of his large
experience and his ripe judgment. His appointment
will meet with general and hearty approval and II
his shattered healh-shattered in the service of the
OnlOn-pfOVeB equhl 10 Ino uutloS VI mo "O" POoi-
ton he will doubtless perform them as toincrease
the obligation which the country already owes him.
Rawlns is an Illinois man, and started at the begin
ming of tho war, when Grant was a BrgadieT as
Captain and Assistant AdjutantGeneral. The first
notice we have Of him is the newspaper correspon-
dence relating to the battle Of Belmont; and in the
official reports of the capture of Fort Donelson and
the victory at PIttsburg Landing, he is compliment
ed by his chief. The confidence thus early reposed
in him was never betrayed, and tho promise he then
gave ended not in disappointment. As he has been
Grants right arm in war; he is to become atrusted
counselor in peace.
New-York tribune., 1869-03-12

nua messages took strong ground against the eIten
sion of slave territory He subsequently elected
limited States Senator, serving from 1851 to 1851
when he retired to private life and spent some years
in foreign travel At the breaking out Of the Rebel
lion he was outspoken in support of the Republic, and
participated in the great Union gathering at Union
square, May 90 1861, where he made short but stir
ring address. In January, 1862 he was appointed
with Bishop Ames upon a commission to relieve the
Union prisoners in the South and though the Commits
soners were denied admission to the territory held
by the insurgents they succeeded in negotiating a
general exchange of the prisoners of war; Later IN
that year Mr. Fish wrote letter in which Gen.
Grants peace principles in time of war are so pun
gently set forth that his earnest words uttered at
that time of doubt, may have gone far to commend
him as a member of the new Administration. He
said 1--WE must conquer peace-wo cannot buy it,
and if we could it would be valueess, as it would be
disgracefulD Such is the Secretary of State whom
Grant has chosen,

U. S. GRANT.

HAMILTON FISH OF NEw-YoRK.
Hamilton Fish has been often mentioned in con-
nection with place in the Cabinet Of President
Grant, but it not until yesterday that this ex-
pectaton was gratifcd. The resignation of Mr.
Stewart consequent upon the unfortunate cOmplca-
tOns which deprived the country Of bis services and
the subsequent withdrawal Of Mr.. Washburne from
the State Department, made the appoint
ment of Mr.. Fish an accomplished fact
when that event was least expected.

completing his education Mr.. Fish pursued for some
time the study of the law, and was admitted
as an attorney in the Supreme Court in 1890.
