HIS HlsToBY-A FINE WRITER.

the majestic simplicity OF the. Dorlc

Caesars sword, so his compositions IN
clearness. directness and comprehensive
ness were worthy of the Caesars pen.
His account Of his campaigns in the last
year of the war for Southern Indepen-

highest qualities of the historian. You
