The Army OF the West.
Charlottesville. Va. October 2,

Charlottesville, Va, October 2, 1897.
| To the Editor OF the Dispatch:
A very clever and courteous corre-
spondent of the Dispatch claims in your
last Sundays paper that the battle of
Antietam, or Sharpsburg, was the most
hotly-contested of the great war between
the States.
1t was certainly a grand triumph OF
Confederate yalor and constancy. But
all valor was not the peculiar virtue of
the Army of Northern Virginia. There
was some very creditable fighting done
by the Army Of the West which, my
young friends, was also a Confederate
army-as when the First Division OF the
Army of the West began lighting with
1900 men on October 2. 1853, stol med the
works of Corinth next day, lost all but
1850 men, and on the third day held
Ord's Corps at the Hatchls Bridge until
our train and army were safe, and they
marched off after three days fighting
with 200 men. having saved the army.
Nor do / believe any conduct of the
Army of Northern Virginia surpassed
the conduct of the garrison Of Spanish
Fort, an earthwork like the redoubts
which surrounded Richmond, which was
held twenty lone days by 1900 men against
Canby's army of $1,000 men, with it's com
plete siege train and Faragut's fleet,
and then marched out by order, having
killed and wounded more of their enemy
than their own numbers.
Bragg's army, 5000 men, is stated to
have lost 1900 killed and wounded, but
1t gained a complete victory and drove
Rosecrans from the field, capturing 5000
prisoners.
In December. 1868. Grant, with 10000
men, had pressed us down to Grenada
upon the Tallahatchie where we were
Withstanding him with 1900 men. Sher-
man, with 5000 men. was TO move out
from Vicksburg, join Grants army at
Jackson, then these combined forces
would move 10000 strong upon Mobile,
Selma, Savannah, and Charleston. and
end the war But Van Dorm. with 1900
horse, passed around Grants army to
Holly Spring, where he had collected his
supplies for ninety days, protected by

that Xmas eve Won Dorn's troopers

DfxraeIi's Latin.

The Paris Gaulois, In an article on
Latin pronunciation, states that at the
Berlin congress, in 1878, Lord beaconsneld,
who understood French, but could not
speak II, on one occasion suddenly rose
and pronounced three words. which
sounded "kasi cassus bclli." Bismarck,
acquainted with the English pronunca-
ton OF Latin, answered with~a frown, but
did not utter word, while there was
general establishment and alarm among
the rest OF the delegates. excepting Lord
Salisbury and Odo Russell, who nodded
their heads in silent approval. SO pro-
found was the impression made by Dis
raeiPs mysterious pronunciamento that
the sitting was brought to an immediate
conclusion. That evening, however, Count
Gortsohakoff, the Russian delegate. no
longer able TO contain his curiosity. at a
dinner given by Bismarck. leaned over to
Beaconsfield and asked him as personal
favor to explain what the three lawfully
sounding English words" that created
such sensation meant. But that Is
not English" replied Baconsreld, not
little offended, that Is good Latin"
what, then" asked the Russian diplo-
mat. were those words? Bismarck IRON
ically interrupted: Lat me write them
down" He took his famous giant lead
pencil from his vest pocket and Quasi
casus belli" relieved the worried mind of
the statesman. II 10 a consolation 10

latest diplomatic preoccupation OF Euro

Guided by saying that the response OF
General Lee to tho call OF his State would
nave great influence in shaping the desti-

General Lee listened TO the speech
with his eyes cast down, and when he
raised his head to reply / saw an express
sion on his face that looked as II his
mind was fully made up, and his reply
would be direct and positive. From what
had heard l expected him to decline
and make protest against secession, and
his first words encouraged me in that ex
pectatlon. He said: Gentlemen, l am
opposed to war, although bred to the pro-
fession of a soldier. and 1 deeply deplore
civil war-stTife between brother and
brother
But he continued, and his words

believe me, and said that he understood
from General Scott and others that Gene
raj Lee was using all his influence to
prevent the secession of Virginia. We
had a company of Kansas volunteers in
Washington, OF which Senator Lane was
captain. and asked Mr.. Lincolns per-
mission to go over TO Arlington and ar
rest Lee that night before he could go TO
Richmond, but he said that such a thing
would precipitate a crisis, which they
were trying to avert. / begged so hard
that he finally sent me to Seward But
Seward wouldn't believe anything. He
said he knew all about Lee, and all about
the convention at Richmond; that Lee
was as loyal man "a there was in the

Scott I'm preparing for the defence of

went to Richmond. and within twenty
four hours the announcement that he had
taken command at Richmond was in all

Mr.. M'NALL LOST.

The Federal Court Decides against the
Kansas Insurance Commissioners.
TOPEKA. Kan, June 3O.-Judge Eos
ter, of the United States district court,
granted the application for an injunc-
tion, made by the Metropolitan Life
Insurance Co., of New York, against
Webb McNall, state superintendent of
insurance, restraining him from in
any manner interfering with the bust
ness of the company, because it re-
fused to pay its share of the notorious
Hillmon claim. The decision de-
prives the state insurance com
missioner of the power he assumed
in preventing large eastern life in
suranee companies from doing bust
ness in the state. Judge Foster holds
that Commissioner McNaIl had no
right to revoke a companys license IN
less the holder of the policy has Sc
cured a Judgment against the company
and this judgment had remained IN
paid 90 days, The Judge also
holds that McNall had no right
or power to interfere with the
business of the company involved in a
case pending in court. but that his
duties are purely clerical and not dis
cretionarv.

CLINTON, Ia, June CA representa-

was in this city Saturday, interesting
citizens in the movement, the principal
force of which is to be aimed first at
the proposed union of the wire and
nail manufacturers. The organization
is already of huge dimensions, embrac-
ing IS states and taking in merchants,
farmers and builders The claim is
made that the best legal talent of the
country has been secured to fight the
trust. The origin of this movement
appears to have been in Wisconsin.
