THE SUNNY SOUTH.
Albert Sidney Johnston
HIILIFK BY HIS SOY.
We copy from the Southern Presbyterian
Review the following ably written notice of
Gen. Johnson:
This massive and beautiful volume is a
prime contribution not only to the history of
the Confederacy, but of America. It is the
pious offering of his eldest son, the heir of his
papers and correspondence; long known him
self as an advocate, soldier, professor in
Washington and Lee University, and author.
As General Johnston’s career was intimately
connected with some of the most important
events in the growth of the United States,
this full and careful biography, by so com
petent and correct a hand, gives the reader
the best narrative, known to us, of these.
We have here an intelligent description of
the Black Hawk war; of the birth and
growth of the Republic of Texas; of the Mor
mon heresy, and the expedition of the
United States troops to Utah to enforce the
laws; as well as of the war of Secession.
General Johnston was by birth a native of
northern Kentucky, by education a student
of Transylvania University and of the West
Point Military Academy, and by profession
a soldier. Stat oned at Jefferson Barracks,
Mo., in his earlier days, he naturally took
part in the Black Hawk war, in which he
was adjutant of Gen. Atkinson, the com
mander of the United States forces. A few
years after this the declining health of his
first wife led him to resign his place in the
army, just when he might have expected
well-earned promotion. The death of this
lovely lady by pulmonary disease left him
bereaved; and his active spirit naturally re
verted to that profession for which he was so
evidently born and fully trained. But it was
for the United States “a piping time of
peace,” and it was not possible for him to re
gain his place in her little army. The young
republic of Texas was then struggling into
independence; a multitude of adventurous
Kentuckians, including two of Col. Johnston’s
brothers, were there. He determined, there
fore, to devote himself to that cause. Leav
ing his motherless children in safe homes,
he went to Texas, became a citizen—as he
continued to lie until his death—and offered
her his sword. The battle of San Jacinto
was over; but the war with Mexico was
dragging its slow length along. He soon rose
to tie commander of the little army of the re
public, and, in the next administration, her
secretary of war. He was an ardent advo
cate of annexation, though the immediate ef
fect was to dissolve the government of the
republic and consign him to private life. He
had now married again. His official life was
too pure and public-spirited to result in ad
ditions to his wealth; on the contrary, it had
consumed the most of his private estate. In
the Mexican war, which was occasioned by
the annexation, promotion was mainly deter
mined by partisan reasons, and Col. John
ston’s eminent exiierience and fame were
postponed to the advancement of politicating
colonels. But he raised a volunteer regiment
in Texas himself, and commanded it for six
months, when it was disbanded against his
protest. He took a brilliant part in the af
fair of Monterey, with which his share of the
Mexican war elided.
He now returned to the care of his helpless
family. The next years were spent iu strict
retirement on his Texan farm, where he ta
ilored with his own hands, with all the dig
nity of a Cincinnatus, for his daily bread.
The great enlargement of the domain of the
United States after the Mexican war called,
however, for an increase of the standing
army. He had lieen appointed to the labori
ous "duty of paymaster of forces, which he
performed with his usual spotless integrity.
He now received a tardy recognition of liis
merit by an appointment from President
Pierce as Colonel of one of the new regiments
of cavalry. Two years’ service followed in
western Texas. His next and most impor
tant service was the command of the army
to ITtab to maintain the authority of the laws
in that insolent and murderous iiependency.
Here his chief contest was with the elements.
By the fault of others, the march of the col
umn was delayed until autumn, and was
overtaken in the Rocky Mountains by winter.
Col. Johnston's heroic devotion fortitude and
wisdom, save l the army from frost and fam
ine amidst the insulation and horrors of an
alpine winter, and early in the ensuing sum
mer he led it scathless to Salt Lake. There
his firmness and prudence re-established the
reign of law without the firing of a gun. Af
ter a wearisome and inactive command of
two years, he was allowed a furlough, and
spent the summer of 1S60 in the bosom of his
family, a sagacious but silent observer of the
gigantic ternjtest then brewing. A few
months lief ore its outbreak he went to
San Francisco as a military commandant of
the Pacific States. As soon as his State—
Texas—seceded, lie resigned his commission
and retired to southern Cal fornia.
The universal detraction which then be
came, and has since continued, a main weap
on of sectional warfare, did not fail to reach
him. He was accused of a ridiculous con
spiracy to detach the Pacific States, and <>f
he sank, his life sapped by the bemorliage of
an insidious wound.
When his remains were prepared for the
grave,three wounds were found. Of these,two,
which carried no peril to his life, must have
bren very painful, yet he had given no sign*
The stoicism of duty and the exaltation or
his spirit made him endure them without a
word. Of the third, from which his life was
rapidly ebbing away, he was doubtless un
conscious. The first knowledge that his war
fare was ended came to him in the faintness
of approaching death. Silently confessing
the presence of the invincible conqueror, he
sank into the arms of Gov. Harris, his devot
ed attendant, and so passed away. What
were the parting thoughts that occupied this
mighty soul i Of the beloved family, separ
ated from him by the breadth of a continent?
Of his detractors ? Of his country ? Of his
God ? Doubtless of all these; and we love to
lielieve that the last throbs of that grand
heart were animated with a lofty joy that
the race was now run, the accusations refut
ed, the long agony ended, the task of duty
accomplished, the triumph forever his. An
unworthy country might suffer defeat; his
victory was final.
Every trait of Gen. Johnston's body and
spirit was noble. To a bodily presence as
commanding as that of Washington were
added a sagacious and statesmanlike mind, a
perfect courage, an impregnable self-com
mand, and the sweetest Christian charity.
The loftiness and indejiendence of his morals
raised him above all the arts of the politician.
His favorite motto was: “In God’s great
hand secure I stand.” In this we have the
explanation of that consistent virtue and
grand serenity which lx>re him through the
adversities anil toils of an unrequited life.
The son has executed his pious task faith
fully and judiciously. Conscious of the deli
cacy of his relations to the subject, ho has
preferred to let events, anil the words of oth
ers, portray his father’s career, and give the
measure of Ins greatness. Out of tin's honor
able reserve arises the only blemish of his
work. Parts of the narrative are thus ren
dered rather compilations than digested cora-
positions.and thus they lose something of that
succinctness, order, and movement, which
the author's literary skill would doubtless
have given them. The events are stated
with fairness, anil the motives of enemies es
timated with great moderation. Our ver
dict may be expressed in the wish that every
young man in our country might study this
liook until his whole soul was enlarged witli
the conviction that it is infinitely nobler and
better to live the arduous, self-denying, un
requited life, and die the tragical death, of
Albert Sidney Johnston, than to succeed by
the ways in which success is now mostly won.

A Good I,Ivor
Is ahvas known by his apjiearance. A man whs
lives comfortably 11 home, has good dinners, etc.,
will always show it in his person. Hut there is
another liver more important to man—it is the
laid liver—the liver that should regulate the
whole system. If that is out of fix, man is good
for nothing—can enjoy nothing—to restore it to
health, use I)r. Gilder's Liver Pills. A few doses
will relieve you.

This ancient bit of advice is well enough
for “spare” people, but how about those that
are already fat ? What is to lieeomeof them ?
Sit still, and I'll tell you. After many ex
periments, extending through months of pa
tient investigation and toil, the celebrated
analytical chemist, J. C. Allen, has perfected
and given to the world Allen’s Anti-Fat.
Thus far in several hundred cas s tin's great
remedy has never failed to reduce a corpu
lent person from three to six pounds per
week. It is perfectly harmless and positively
efficient. Sold by druggists.

Woman's Wisdom.
“She insists that is more important, that
her family shall lie kept in full health, than
that they* should have all the fashionable
dresses and styles of the times. She therefore
sees to it that each member of her family is

first appearance of any symptoms of ill health,
to prevent a fit of sickness with its attendant
expense, care and anxiety. All women should
exercise their wisdom in this wav.”—Ed.
other preposterous sins; and measures were
silently provided to kidnap him and carry
him off to some Northern dungeon. This at
last determined hint to hesitate no longer,
but to east his lot with his adopted State.
His only way to reach Texas was by the ov
erland route through the deserts of Arizona.
This journey he made in midsummer, at the
head of thirty companions, under a burning
sun. and amidst the ambushes of the Apaches
and the United States troops. Immediately
on his arrival in Texas he went to the capital
of the Confederacy—Richmond—and was
hailed as the most important accession to the
Southern cause. He was at once put in com
mand of the Western campaign, with a fron
tier extending from the mi untains of West
Virginia to Indian Territory. Thencefor
ward his career is too well known to need re
cital : including the defence of his vast line
against huge armies and fleets, and with
means utterly inadequate, for six months;
the fall of Fort Donalson, the evacuation of
Tennessee, the concenti ation at Corinth, and
the liattle of Shiloh.
Gen. Albert Sidney Johnston’s is the noblest
and most pathetic figure in our history.
Stonewall Jackson was his equal in purity,
courage, heroism, and military genius. He
also fell in the arms of victory; but he had
been cheered along to the supreme sacrifice
by unvarying success and the applause of his
people. The campaign of Gen. Johnston was
a picture of steady disaster, bringing upon
him the unjust anti senseless abuse of the
men he was giving his life to protect, until
that blaze of glorious triumph,his first and his
last, in whose flame he was consumed. Yet
this disaster was due to no fault of his own—
no defect of devotion, diligent*, self-saerifice.
or genius. He had b?en thrown, by the very
confidence of the country, into the post of
most deadly peril. Before him was the de*
liberately organised strength of the great
Northwest, gathering for nearly a year, un
shaken by any such disaster as that of
Manassas. Behind him were States wrapped
in the insane security of vain confidence,
liostponing all effort commensurate with their
nsed, witnhilding the resources al s iluteiy
essential to defence, and|yet demanding of
him an* impossible task. Too magnanimous
to disclose his country’s weakness, yet per
fectly aware of the desperate nature of the
task expected of him, he worked on, doing
all that one man could do, and calmly bear
ing the stings of undeserved reproach. The
disasters with which he was blamed were
wholly due to the apathy and neglect of the
populations which should have supported
him, or to the' inexorable force of circum
stances. During weary months he silently
endured, while' reorganising his shattered
forces: and we can imagine, how, under that
calm exterior, the energies of his lion-like
heart were gathering, like a brooding tem
pest, for the Titanic crash which was to clear
his fame at one* and overwhelm the invader.
After weary waiting the hour came; and
the hosts gathered at the spot jiointed out by
his military sagacity months before. He de
livered his mighty blow, which, as long as
Jiis arm was nerved to guide it, drove the
“enemy, and his detractors, like chaff liafore
It On the very crest of the wave of victory
From the Hub.
There is perhaps no tonic offered to the peo
ple that possesses as much real intrinsic value
as the Hop Bitters. Just at this season of the
year, when the stomach needs an appetizer
orthe blood needs purifying, the cheapestanil
best remedy is Hop Bitters. An ounce of
prevention is worth a pound of cure—don’t
wait until you are prostrated by a disease
that may take months for you recover in.—

Hair Vigor,
FOR RESTORING GRAY HAIR TO ITS
NATURAL VITALITY AND COLOR.
It is a most agreeable dressing, which
is at. once harmless and effectual, for pre
serving tlie liair. It restores, with the
gloss and freshness of youth, faded or gray,
light, and red hair, to a rich brown, or deep
black, as may be desired. By its use thin
hair is thickened, and baldness often
though not always cured. It checks falling
of the hair immediately, and causes a new
growth in all cases where the glands are
not decayed; while to brashy, weak, or
otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitality
and strength, and renders it pliable.
The Vigor cleanses tlie t alp, cures and
prevents the formation of dandruff; and,
by its cooling, stimulating, and soothing
properties, it heals most if not all of tlie
humors and diseases peculiar to the scalp,
keeping it cool, clean, and soft, under
which conditions diseases of the scalp and
hair are impossible.
As a Dressing for Ladies' Hair,
The Vigor is incomparable. It is color
less, contains neither oil nor dye, and will
not soil white cambric. It imparts an
agreeable and lasting perfume, and as an
article for the toilet it is economical and
unsurpassed in its excellence.
