The Chances of War.


The Atlanta Journal publishes fac siplile
of q dispatch by General Lee requesting
the appointment of General Gordon as
maior-general. The telegram shows upon
what slender threads the fortunes of war
hang. General Lee first intended General
Il. +. Hoke for the place, and the telegram
a. first written read
Il desire Major-General Hoke 10 be sent
10 me ut once" And then on the telegram
the above words are erased. and the tele-
gram reads
Il request that Brigadier-General J; b.
Gordon be promoted to major-general TO
replace General Edward johnson.
RI T.. LEE"
Why it was changed we do not know,
but il is evident that General Hoko was
the first man that came TO the mind OF the
peerless Lee in connection with the va.
cancy. In the appointment OF General
Gordon no mistake was made. General
Hoke would have made quite as great a re-
putatiOn.
