Plr.e Crest Villa. Maitland, Fls., Oct.
13.—The late Rev. J. Lansing Burrows of
Richmond. Va.. a Baptist divine of high
repute, once asserted that "there never
ha* been a great war In the world which
baa not, under God's control, contributed
In acme way to the progress of civilisa

for the triumph of the Messiah's
Kingdom." Thl* sweeping assertion fur

to him; “Lieut Bale, why don't you el.

gun* were elevated a little lower to meet
the General'* approval fittll. the Idea of
elevating tho cannon lower made Lieut

And yet, Gen Forrest was every Inch a

advice Lieut Bel* elevated his guns lower

A Bavtnnah friend has *ent me a cop/

McGuire should seek to heltttla the mili

way that the I’nlon soldiers knew they

why I* It that the North has failed to pro

sweeping charges against the Southern

As Mrs. Claytons book has no; been
pushed Into public notice, several read
ers of the -Morning News have written me
to know where It can be purchased. It
took me two months to get a copy, as It
la published by The Young Churchman
Comiatuy of Milwaukee. Wls. The intro
duction Is written by Mr. Frederic Cook
Morehouse, ot that city, a relative of the
Claytons The pride Is 41. and I presume
Mr William Estlll, the Savannah book
seller. could order It for any customer.
There is one feature of the book that Is
quite interesting, as it deals with the
famous Kansas campaign of 1*54 Harbour
county. Alabama, sent some prominent
characters to the territory. Oen Abe Bu
ford being the most conspicuous, and Oen.
Henry D Clayton a good second, though
not as hot-headed as Buford.
Those were stirring and warlike ttme-i.
and Oen Clayton’s full page picture In the
book shows mm prepared for a conflict
with the anti-slavery forces of that period
His rifle ia on his right shoulder and in
his left hand he holds a military haf.
while crosstraps over his shoulders and
breast hold up canteen, dipper, pistols,
etc Georgia and Alabama contributed
quite a sum of money to the expedition,
and It was put In charge of Uen. Clayton
who led the party, which numbered some
hundied or more. Mrs. Clayton being one
of the party. Her account of the Journey
and ihe hardships endured In Kansas, es
pecially by the women. Is quite Interest
ing, and goes to prove that the patriot
ism and courage of our women can always
be relied upon
