General Steuart, Not Stuart.

Editor Of Tho Times Dispatch:
Il Sir,-1 have read tho lottorfof Major
Stiles, published in your Issue Of Sep
tombor 8d, and must admit my error In
interpreting what he wrote In regard
to 1ackson's lowering over McClelan's
right wing before the baltic of Seven
Pines AS to- whether wrote "left''
instead Of fright" wing, | cannot de-
tormno without seeing my manuscript;
1t may have been tho mistake of tho
linotyplst, but whether his mistake or
mine. It was mistake
But, Mr.. Editor, in my letter Of Au-
gust 2Sth I aimed to have corrected the
spelling OF General Scunrts name, in
referring TO him or his brigade, and In
printing 1t, as It occurred in my let
tor, YOUR lnotyplst spells It Stuart"
IT should bc{as r wrote, and as thought
very plainly, steuart. This brigade was
commanded by Brigadicr General Gcorso
ID II. eEtouart, Of Baltimore, Maryland,
lie was n man of wonderful capacity for
details as those who knew him VIII
remember have heard i said Of nm
that he knew the name Of every man
in his brigade, SO that he could recog-
nlzc by name any member OF ms pri-
gadc whom he met, and from my
knowledge Of him believe this TO DO
y rue. He attended personally to all IN
spectlons to tho minutest detail, and
under his supervision his brigade always
had tho neatest and clennest cambs,
and his men kept their arms IN the best
order T ever saw. It would be unpardoli'-
nblc lin writing about such man 70
spell his name wrong.

and Richard) were not among them.
They were nephews of William Ashby,
and were not. as far rs ! know de-
scendcd from tho strothcrs at all. ] am
