Twenty-lour thousand of t’ esc poor fellows are under thu ground, rotting in inhospitable graves. Among them Cols. D. W. Smith, Sturgiss, Prescott, Coombs, Cummins, Mills, Phil, and Ed. Tracy, Levi Smith, Douglass. \\ iltiams, Delaney, Evans, iMaunge, Slaughter, Shropshire, Har ris, Cooper, Jones, Colquitt, Sloan, La mar and others. In the cause of the rebellion Geor gia'lost, a large number of many of her most gifted and gallant sons. Tho : first on this li.-t, probably, is Major Gen. William 11. T.

Prig. Gen Paul J. Semmes, of Co lumbus was killed at Gettysburg, 110 had distinguished himsell upon many hard fought fields in the boutli, and perished upon the loyal soil et Penn sylvania. He was a graduate of West point, but I believe lie was not in the army at the breaking out of the rebell ion. P igadicr General Francis S.
