CONFEDERATE BRlGADERs.
They Arc Rapidly Passing From, the Arena
of National Politics


The men who enjoyed prominence in
the military and civil Service of the
confederacy are rapidly passing from
the arena of national eolitics. Below is
record Of such as ere still in active
life in Washington:
The senior Unite ii States senator from
Alabama, John T.. Morgan, was briga-
der general i'll 'Sle Confederate army,
and her other f6Jnator, James L.. Pugh,
was a memberrof the Confederate con-
gress. Hon. Joseph Wheeler, who at
tanned tho rank of lieutenant general in
the Confed crate service, has for IL years
been there preventative in congress from
the Eighth Alabama district.
The f.enior senator from Georgia, John
B. Gordon, was likewise a lieutenant
general in the army OF the coaEederacy
The Hon. Edward G. Walthall of Mis-
sislppi, major general in the Confed-
eltate service, and of late the junior
United States senator from his native
state, while not in active politics, hav-
ing resigned for the balance of his pres
ent term in the upper house, has been
elected for and is confidently expected
to take his seat in that honorable body
in March, 1856.
The senior United States senator from
Missouri, Francis NJ. Cockrell, was a
brigadier general in the Confederate
army, and the other senator from that
commonwealth, George G. Vest, held
positions in both houses of the Confed-
crate congress.
The present senior United States SEN
ators from both North and South Caro-
lima, Matt W. Ransom and M. G. But
Ter, were major generals in the Confed.
crate service.
The representatives from Tennessee
in the upper house of congress are Isham
G. Harris, the senior and William B.
Bate, who is the junior senator from
that commonwealth. The first men
toned was q war governor Of his native
state, and the last named was a major
general in the Confederate army.
And, lastly, Eppa Hunton, who saw
service as brigadier general in the
Confederate army, at present occupies
the position of junior senator from Vir-
ginia in the congress Of the United
States.
Thus do we perceive that of the multi
tude of those who distinguished them
selves in the military and civil annals
of the confederacy only 10 remain in
national halls unfolding in tho present,
as they strove to do in the past, the
rights and interest of the section OF
which they arc the honored representa-
tives-Augusta Chronicle.

Nottingham.
The police claim that he was in this
city on the night of the explosion and
after it occurred was heard to remark
that he had done the work, and that IL
he had bad more dynamite he would
have done better job.
The complaint against him 10 sworn
