a few words in closing on Professor
Alexander, who is about to leave the State.
Edward T. Alexander was born in Washing
ton, Ca, in 1886, and graduated at West
Point in 1857. He was promoted second
lieutenant Of the United States Engineer
Corps, and served as assistant instructor in
engineering at West Point; then as lieuten.
ant Of company Of sappers in the Utah ex-
pedition Of General A. 8. Johnston, and In
Oregon and Washington Territories. He
next was on detail, engaged in perfeotins
and experimenting with system Of army
signals until May, 1881, whom he resigned
in San Francisco, and returned to the
South.
He was commissioned captain Of engi-
neers in the Confederate army, where he in
troduoed the system of signals, and served
as signal officer Of the Army Of the Poto.
mac, and afterwards as chief Of ordnance
of the Army Of Northern Virginia. He was
then promoted to the rank Of colonel Of
artillery, and commanded all the artillery
of Lougstreers corps at Gettysburg, and in
Georgia, and in tho Tennessee campaign.
He was promoted brigadier general Of
artillery and chief Of the artillery of Long
streets corps in February, 1864, holding
that command to the close of the war.
He was elected professor of mathematics
and civil and military engineering and CON.
struotion in the University Of South Caro-
lima in December, 1866, which position he
has filled with distinguished ability, giving
general satisfaction. He was much liked in
the army by his superiors, by his peers, and
by his subordinates, and the many respon-
sible posts he occupied, and his rapid pro-
motion, tell how his services we're valued.
South Carolina loses valuable man by
the resignation Of Professor Alexander.
He has earned her esteem, and carries with
him her best wishes for his welfare and
success.
