Returning in 1861 from Central America, where he acted as secretary to his father, United States minister, he enlisted in the famous Crescent regiment of New Orleans, and going into battle at Shiloh received a severe and disabling wound. Subsequently he became chief clerk of the postoffice department at Richmond under Postmaster-General Reagan. He accompanied the presidential party in April, 1865, as far as Washington, Ga. On his return to Louisiana he wrote the famous epitaph for Albert Sidney Johnston, which is now carved upon the tomb erected by the association of the Army of Tennessee, at New Orleans. Gov. Orin M.

The seceded States returned to the Union, but surrendered no right of man by treaty with a superior power— as they had suffered no dishonor in defeat upon the battle field. Resuming consideration of closely allied military and civic events we see that on the third of March, the day preceding the inaugura
