Duke had evidently been on his good

The horse and his idiosyncrasles did
not long occupy Mowbray's mind. Miss
Boone was a much more agreeable
subject for thought a subject which
had been ever present in Mowbray's
brain since her arrival a week before.

gave one or two backward glanees In
response to urging from Miss Boone's
red lips. When the cutter stood square
ly on the railroad track he glanced sad

The girl clucked impatiently and
jerked at the reins. Duke planted his
legs immovably and kid back an ear.
Miss Boone laid the whip across the
horses broad back apologetically, with
no result. Then. the gray eyes flashing
and the lips crossed together until they
were mere scarlet line, she struck

Judgment. At considerable length
several months ago, l reviewed DR.
Wveth's most valuable life of the
Great Commander, and now | wish to
supplement with additional reflections
and quotations. Too much space can
not well be given to such d marvellous
hero.
The great merit of General Bedford
Forrest as a military genius was
ignored in the tremendous war By
President Davis and General Braxton
Bragg for years. If you would under
stand this read Wyeth's most enter
tanning and discriminating biography
of the great TennesSeean. There is
some disposition to put such COM
handlers as General Jeb Stuart over
him, and perhaps even soldiers of the
real grade of General Fitz Hugh Lee.
But if you would understand the true
merit of Stuart read General Long S
life of General Robert E. Lee. | be-
Iieve Forrest would make a half dozen
such commanders, all merged into one
General Joseph E. Johnston was d
military genius of very high grade.
Many think him the greatest soldier
of the awful war. General Lee said
Of him that if Governor Johnston was
not a great soldier then the COnfed-
eracy had none. Others think General
Lee the greatest soldier, and with this
agree General Lord WoIsley, Colonel
Henderson and a great English mill
tary authority, whose name escapes
me. but he wrote the Battle of
Darkins" that revolutiOnized England,
and made it prepare for war against
Europe in charging its navy and
placing it's home defence upon a much
safer basis. This writer, Colonel
blank. said Lee was one of the three
greatest commanders of the English
speaking Marlborough yelling
ton. Lee. Wolsley says Lee was
greater than wellington. He said this
when he was at the head of the British
army General 10. Johnston held Ma
poleon to be above all the generals
of history" and SO he was. General
Stonewall Jackson carried Napoleon s
"Maxims of War" in his knaDsack all
the time i'm the war with his Bible.
And now what did General Joseph T..
Johnston. a great soldier indeed. say
of Forrest? General Bradley T. John
son was an intimate friend and
biographer of that able commander
In his life of General Joseph f.
Johnston he has this: "The next
dav we had another sitting, and he
discussed the generals of our war He
spoke most highly of Forrest. whom

"reminiscences of his earlier residence
in this State, over 40 years ago.
This poem of mine seems to have
gained such Worldwide fame" said
Mr.. Randall, that my friends really
do not care to know if | have writ
ten anything else. Some time ago |
told a friend of mine that | would
have liked to have made collection
of my writings for publication, and ne
replied: oh! that does not matter
You have Maryland, my Maryland,
to immortalize your name And /
jestingly remarked to him that per
haps those who are most ready to be-
stow eternal laurels upon me might
hesitate about lending me tive-dol-
lar bill And to this he retorted that
[ should not expect to get immortality

Maryland, My Maryland, is a
creation of. my youthful days In
Louisiana. 1t was during the Civil
War. l was a professor~in Poydras
College. Pointe Coupee Parish, on

an account of the passage of a Massa-
Chusetts regiment through Baltimore
on it's way to the seat of war. and de-
tails were given of the serious disturb
anceS which accompanied the march
of that regiment; and / read in that
account that one of my schoolmates
had been wounded. That news set
my Southern blood to fever heat

on my return to the college | COM

were the first to hear it read, and it
reused them to such enthusiasm that
| began to think there must be some
thing in the poem, SO l sent it to the
True Delta. of New Orleans. and it
was published Not long after | real
lied that the song had caught tte
Southern heart, and soon 1t was eX-
tensively copied and in every Southern
home ii was sung. I have written 9TH
er things since. but not one of my
efforts has ever come uD to the re-
putation of that song.
"A friend of mine returning from
England told me that while in Lon
don he met very beautiful lady
whom he took to be English, as she
spoke the language SO fluently, and
she asked him if he would like to
hear her sing one of the songs of his
native land. He begger her to do so.
and she sang Maryland, My Mary
land He was astonished to hear an
Englishwoman sing a Confederate
song, and he told her of his surprise.
oh! l am not English, she informed
him. I am Russian, and l learned
to sing this in my native land, beyond
