OF the New South. SAYS the New York cor
respondent Of the Baltimore sun, are those

the United States Supreme Court, and OF Cyrus
w. Field, wrote Il very Interesting book on his
experience during n short residence in the
South, part Of which was quoted last year against

lowed this with an apprecatiye article on the
character and military genius OF StOncwall Jack

which will be an important feature OF her forth
coming biography OF the distinguished General.
Dr. Field regards General Jackson as perhaps
the ablest soldier that the war produced on
either side.
