The fact that some OF the younger gen.
Grafton do not believe the stories of the
harcships endured by Confederates dur
ing the civil war is referred to in a letter
written The Journal by Captain w. A.
Johnson. Of Thomaston, Ca, who was,
during the war, commander of company
X, Forty-third Tennessee regiment. He
writes as follows:
Editor Atlanta Journal: VIII you please
give me space in your most interesting
paper TO correct the impression among
some OF our young men regarding the
hardships endured by the Confederates
during the war? AS I was on my way to
the capitol several days ago / overheard
a conversation between two nice looking
young men
One OF them said:
bill, did you hear. Captain Johnson
talking about the siege OF VicksburgT"
well. do you believe he told the truth
when he said seventy-ive old mules were
killed and eaten by the Vicksburg army,
commanded by General Pemberton.r
why. no. You know. Bill, that no man
would eat an old mule"
Now / am the man these young men had
reference to. I will state for their benefit
that every word I said was true and
for the benefit of these and others will
state that helped to barbecue a piece Of
fat mule especially for General Penlber-
ton, and had the honor OF conveying
the uncommon dinner to the generals
headquarters. he was as pleased with

, the Editor of The Journal:

To the Editor OF The Journal:
I have paid strict attention to all the
articles in The Journal from my brother
Confederates since the beginning and
am sorry TO have to say that except
a piece from Frank Ryan. and just few
others, the public has not been informed
that there was any other army than Lees
in that war. and hardly any other troops
than Georgia soldiers. II is true there
is only a few left OF Bragg's old army,
and though we had not the success that
Lee had what there is will never admit
that there ever was, or ever VIII be,
or can be on the globe one that could out
do us in anything that belongs to military
qualities After Shiloh Bragg made that
brilliant charge into Kentucky. We pri-
Yates expected that we surely would re-
main in there and prepared ourselves to
whip the whole Yankee host. but instead
OF giving US a chance at them except at
Perryville, he marched us out as quick
as in, and later he took post at Murfrees-
boro. Tenn.

guard until "old Rosy" moved on us

memory AS such I enlisted and remain

tempt compromise Of "hygienic mincemeat."
II you make any, let Il be the best, and 70 that
end give trial the following, the result OF nj
teen years OF experimenting and careful revis-
in.
Ingredients; Three pounds lean beef Cfrom
prime round, steamed till tender), one and one
half pounds suet six pounds greening apples,
two lemons and two oranges 1grated peel and
juice), one and oneihalf pounds brown sugar,
two pints New Orleans molasses, two pints hard
cider boiled, two pints good California brandy,
three nutmegs (grated), two tablespoon
fuls OF salt, one tablespoonful mace, two tea
spoonfuls each Of ginger allspice cloves, Gin
namon. one pound citron, two pounds seed
less raisins, two pounds large. raisins seeded,
two pounds currants, glass OF grape jelly.
Keep in mind that perfect mincemeat, rich
as IL is should yet be fresh-tasting and clean"
in distinctive favors. To secure this quality
everything depends upon chopping the meat
apples and suet properly; not reducing them to
paste OF pcrridge through grinder. The meat
anc suet should be chopped fine, the, former
into pieces OF French peas, the latter as fine
as you can make Il; but the apples should be
coarsely chopped into pieces the size Of navy
beans The raisins should be whole and the
citron in thin slices large as half a silver
quarter. See that your molasses is not glu-
cose mixture, but the real New Orleans. In
raaking pies, II the mincemeat seems too thick,

OF wine.

what spot of the commonwealth the state

But in the depot proposition Georgia
has lost, but as usual Atlanta has won.
To the Gate City the loss OF the depot
on the original site is a blessing in dis
guise, for now she will get an institution
much more elaborate and better fitted to
her future needs than could have been
possible on the old site.

MULE MEAT WAS EATEN
SAYS CAPTAIN JOHNSON

this welI-cooked dinner as any of us now
would be with a juicy steak at Durand's
Our army OF about 10000 men subsisted
entirely on good old mule meat for four
DAYS, not because we were particularly
fond Of that kind OF steak but because 1t
was mule or starve. The young men OF
today do not know what 1t IS 10 be staIV-
ing and I nope they never VIII. General
Grant was facing us with 5000 we'll fed
and picked men of the federal army and
General Pemberton had only 10000 starved
soldiers.
We were entirely cut off from the outer
world and therefore we lived rs best we
could, hoping that relief would come to
US from General Joe Johnson's army.
So we subsisted as best we could until
July 8, 1868, when about o'clock in the
morning the great siege of Vicksburg
was ended by the surrender of General
Pemberton TO General Grant Yours very

Why all this fuss in the state papers
about Atlanta's new depot?
One would think from reading many
of the squibs from the newspapers of
Georgia that AtlanTl ms were pirates Just
as though they are not Georgians and
tax payers at that. Indeed the city of
Atlanta pays more taxes into the treasury
of the state of Georgia, than does any
other spot of ground the same size in the
state. Atlantians are not only Georgians
but patriots as well, and as much the
watch dogs of the treasury as men
from other sections of the state. They
are statesmen as well, for they foresaw
the loss that would accrue to the states
property unless it should be improved.
which could have been done without a
dollar Of taxes. for the state could nave
borrowed money at four per cent to
build the depot and collected a rental

preached about % times a month.
There were a few stations and half
stations but the most of the work was
large circuits.
Among the preachers there was not
a single college graduate unless Ben
jamin Pope in his second year was
one, but there were a few men of very
fine culture and a number Of great
ability as preachers. Col. Few had
given up public life for the pulpit
and was a leading man. Lovick
Pierce, Jesse Boring, James @. An
drews, VIM. Arnold, VIM. ]. Parks,
John Howard were among the prom
inent preachers. But into this con-
ference were admitted two young men
from the University both graduates
Archelaus Mitchell and Geo. Wells
Foster Pierce. One of these is still liv-
ing and his great nieces, the daughters
of Chief Justice James Jackson, are
now living in Atlanta, and one OF
his nephews, Mr.. Wynn, is a member
of the conference. He is perhaps the
oldest Methodist preacher on this con-
tinent, who has been uninterruptedly
a member Of the annual conference.
This remarkable man is DR.. Archel-
Gus II. Mitchell, of the Alabama con-
ference. The other Of these two was af-
was named for his grandfather, George
Wells Foster and up to his second con-
ference year he bore the whole name of
his grandparents, but after that drop
ped the Wells. There were in all Geor-
gia and Florida only 81 separate
charges, not so many as now found
in any three Of the districts of the
three conferences in these states.
In 1866 the Georgia conference was
divided and in 1867 the first North
Georgia conference met in the old city
hall in Atlanta where the capitol is
now, and now after it has met repeat
eddy in Atlanta it returns to the First
church for its thirty-fifth session,
How much resemblance there is be-
tween the first little group of 17sS and
the present throng of 1902 1t would be
hard to say. and yet if that little group
had not sown the seed this large body
of reapers had not gathered the grain.

LAWS Of the Nations.

Andrew Carnegie IN The Worlds Work
To summarize in one paragraph the laws
bearing upon the material position Of nations,
as described, may not be amiss:
l. The chief nations of the world have great
er capacity to supply their own wants than
was supposed. ,
2 Skilled labor has lost its power to attract
capital and raw material, which under favor
able conditions now attract capital and labor.
3. Nations will develop their own resources
to the greatest possible extent as patriotic
duty, offering inducements to the enterprising
to risk time and capital in the task.
T. The country with the largest and most
profitable home market has an invincible weap-
on for the conquest of foreign markets, as the
law of surplus operates in favor of the
largest producer in competing for the trade OF
the world.
g. AS nations are more and more to supply
their own wants, home commerce is to in
crease much more rapidly than foreign com
merce.
6. Nations tend to increase in population ac-
cording to their capacity to produce cheap
food.
The tendency to enlarge areas under one
government must continue, otherwise the small
nations become mere pigmies industrially and
play no part In worldwide affairs.
These laws have already given some proof
Of their sway, TO which beg to direct your
attention.
