How BisuoP POLK WAS KILLED An
ex, Confederate, writing for the Westmin
ster Rerieu, gives the following account
of the bishop general:
The death Of the distinguished man
occurred while oar army lay in front Of
Kcnesaw. Johnson, with a group Of Of.
fcers. among whom was Polk, was max.
ing reconnaissance of the enemy's line
from the summit of the Pike mountains,
a lofty, solitary mount, which jutted out
from the range, and formed the apex of
an acute angle, on which our line was al
ranged, The situation was very haz-
ardous one, being commanded, or rath-
er reached, by guns from any portion of
the enemy's lines. The unusual assem-.
| ,,, Ia,
soon attracted the vigilant enemy A
battery in front Immediately fired one
shot, which we afterwards found out was
but the prelude to one of the most fear
| fu shelings | ever witncs scd. The
group was standing between young
Beauregard's battery and the fifth com
pany of Washipgton's artillery, John
ston being on the works looking through
field glass. The first shot could not
have missed him two feet, but the only
attention he paid to it was to turn his
glasses to the battery that fired it. Polk
had, in the meantime, separated from tho
group and was walking thoughtfully
away, with his left side to the enemy,
his head down and his hands clasped be
hind him. The second shell fired at the
crowd struck him in the arm, and passed
through the body, tearing out his heart,
and then crushing his right arm above
the elbow. He dropped on one knee,
wavered then fell on one sidc--dead.
had hardly turned my back when heard
the murmur Of horror run through the
line, "Gen Polk is killed. " Johnston
said not word, but ran to him and lift
ed him in his arms Hardee uttered .
cry and also rushed forward He wa,
