the carpets into strips with their pen
knives. and tore the lace curtains from
the windows with their bayonets. Valn-
able books were torn from their covers

ing was piled in a heap in the yard

interview with General Grant. After
much discussion it was decided that |
had better go to Grant, and ask him to
send us out with our soldiers as pris-
oners of war to New Orleans. We
feared the exposure of the children to
the heat of the July sun, after their
underground life and scant fare and
the hardships OF travel in wagons. So
Jennie and | called upon General
Grant, who received us with every
courtesy, and gave us papers which
would secure us transportation
through his lines. He behaved through
out our interview like a brave soldier
and kindly gentleman. He expressed
himself as being anxious to aid the
people all he could, admired the hero
ism and self-sacrifice of our army as
much as l could ask, and "as for the
women of the SOUTH" he said, they
cannot be conquered" Those were his
very words. While we were there Ad-
miral Porter entered, and we were in
troduced to the man who for eighteen
months had been bothering us with
bombs. On u way home he passed a
wagonful of Confederate soldiers, who,
when we bowed, as we always do when
We meet them, filled the air with their
cheers. Our whole army is devoted,
every nan of it, to the ladies who
shared with them the trials and dan
gers of the siege.

The old cabildo which has been men,
toned in connection with the Presi-
dents trip is a familiar and picturesque
sight to those who have visited New
Orleans. In 1892 the building was
erected by a Spanish nobleman, named
Rexas, who was a colonel of the pro-
vineial troops in Louisiana and a cav
alier OF the royal and distinguished
order of Carlos III. His memory is
even TO- perpetuated in daily evening
mass in the old st. Louis Cathedral,
adjoining the Cabildo. and built by
him at the same time and given to the
Catholic church of Louisiana. The
structure figures much in the romances
of George w. Gable, Charles Dudley
Warner and other noted American
writer's. 1t faces what Is now known
as Jackson Square, where Gen. Andrew
Jackson rode at the head of his hardy
Tennesseeans and Kentuckians and
Creoles and Laftte's pirate patriots,
after the victory of the battle of New
Orleans in 1915, and there received the
laurels of the conqueror.
To this day there stands a remark
able equestrian statue in bronze of the
grizzled old warrior in the center of
the square, which at the time of his
coming and before was known as the
Place d'Armes. 1t was In this square,
also, that the French pr~ovincials i'm
plicated in the Lafreniere ,nsurrection
were shot. They had rebelled against
the secret treaty whereby Louisiana
was given to Spain and had sought to
form an empire of their own. Here,
likewise, in the Place d'Armes were
gibbeted the pirates and smugglers of
the Barataria Bay and other malefac-
tors and breakers of the law. From
the wide Spanish center window jack
son reviewed his troops after the bat
tie of New Orleans and 1t is proposed
that President Mckinley deliver an adj
dress and review a parade from the
same window during his visit.
As the C.bIldo Is Today.
The old Cabildo is today used as the
court room Of the Louisiana State Su-
preme Court, and, aside from its rich
interest as the scene of the celebrated
transfer of the territory to the United
States in 1903, contains an art gallery
of famous ~jurists and justices Of the
state, celebrated both by reason of the
painters who made them and the men
who posed before the canvas.
