Life of Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest,

81 Brothers; Portland; Loring, Short s,
Harmon
Whenever Gen. Forrest is mentioned in
| any circle in the north, there Is at once
| associated with his name the reports that
have come down to US concerning 1.-THE
| mas iacre at Fort Pillow" in April, 1864.
| Gen. Forrest was in command of the Con.
federate troops thatattacked and captured
Fort Pillow. The Union garrison refused
to surrender. The less of the Confeder
ntts was small, while the Union less was
very heavy. In his own report pcads at
the time Gen. Forrest said: "Tae victory
was complete. and the less of the enemy
will never be known, from the fact that
large numbers ran into the river and
were shot and drowned. The force was
composed Of about five hundred negroes
and two hundred white soldiers. The
river was dyed with the blood of the
slaughtered for tive hundred yards. There
was in the fort a large number of citizens
who had fled there to escape the corsoript
law. Most of thess ran into the river
anG were drowned. The approximate less
was upward of five hundred killed, but
few of the officers escaping. 1t is hored
that thess facts will demonstrate to the
northern people that neg-o soldiers can
not cope with the southerners " 1t was
blllevsd at the time by the people of the
North that tbs Union troops, especially
the oolored troops, were cruelty murdsrei
after the capt1re of the fort. An invssti-
cation by congressional committee came
to the following conclusions: "That after
the fort had been carried by storm. an in
discriminate slaughter, which spared
neither age nor SIX, white nor black,
soldier nor civilian. YVES carried on. That
after the fighting had ceased, several of
the wounded of the garrison were intsn-
tionally burned to dsatn in the barracks
and tents which were destroyed by fire.
That the rebels burned some of the living
with the dead
Gen. FORESTS biographer brings for
ward the testimony Of q large number Of
Confederate officers and soldiers who We're
present at the capture OF Fort Pillow to
the effect that there was no massacre
that the Union troops fought with dies
peration until nearly oil were killed or
wounded. There is also testimony that
Gen. Forrest ordered all firing to cease
on the capture of the fort, and that it did

authors statement? 1t is hardly probable.
At all events many of his readers. certain
| ly his northern readers, will visa to hear
what the survivors on the Union side
have to say.
| II should be acknowledged, however,
that the author In this Biography has put
Gen. Forrest before Us in more favora-
BILE light than that In which he has hitber-
to been regarded. He ID Thought Of gsa-

object of this change Is to overcome the
difficulty OF insurinR large elevators, two
million bushels in one house being about
the limit upon which 1t is easy to obtain
insurance. and also to reduce the cost
from j Ia 20 ga per cent in wood per
bushel to one-quarter of one per cent, as
the cement tanks cost more than the

the steel being absolutely firepfoof.
This elevator Will be built In five SEQ
