19: Intensified hostility. Mediation attempted foreign affairs peace spirit prisoners of war amnesty on conditions reconstruction on a war basis close of 1863. France had proposed in 1862 to England and Germany that the three nations whose commerce was being injured most by the Confederate war join in suggesting an armistice between the Federal and Confederate governments with a view of settling their difficulties, and the friendly proposition was declined. But in November, 1862, after the elections had gone against the Washington administration, the letter from Lord Lyons, British minister, to Earl Russell, disclosed a reopening of the question of foreign mediation. This interesting letter, describing very fully the effect of the victory of the peace party and referring to the dismissal of McClellan by Mr. Lincoln in the midst of these Democratic exultations as a sign that the President had thrown himself entirely into the arms of the extreme radical party, pr
of F. C. Armstrong. Little of Maryland, commanding the other division, fell at Iuka, where Maury was held in reserve, and afterward served as rear guard, repelling pursuit. About a fortnight later he commanded the center in the battle of Corinth, against Rosecrans, and gallantly engaged the enemy, who was driven from his intrenchments and through the town. During the subsequent retirement he defended the rear, fighting spiritedly at Hatchie's bridge. He was promoted majorgen-eral in November, 1862, and on December 30th, arrived before Vicksburg from Grenada, to support S. D. Lee, who had repulsed Sherman's attack at Chickasaw bayou, and was assigned to command of the right wing. He continued in service here, his troops being engaged at Steele's bayou and in the defeat of the Yazoo Pass expedition, until he was ordered to Knoxville, April 15th, to take command of the department of East Tennessee. A month later he was transferred to the command of the district of the Gulf. In th
of the army. He was relieved from this embarrassment by finding among his papers a note from Secretary Holt to himself, dated on the 29th January, the day on which the joint order was issued. From this the following is an extract: I have the satisfaction of saying that on submitting the paper to General Scott he expressed himself entirely satisfied with it, saying that there could be no objection to the arrangement in a military point of view or otherwise. How does General Scott, in November, 1862, attempt to escape from this dilemma Whilst acknowledging that few persons are as little liable as Mr. Holt to make a misstatement, either by accident or design, he yet states that he has not the slightest recollection of any interview with him on the subject General Scott's rejoinder to ex-President Buchanan, National Intelligencer, Nov. 12 1862. He proceeds to say that he does indeed remember that Mr. Holt, about this time, approached his bedside when he was suffering from an access
at Whiting suggested to General Lee the stratagem of reinforcing Jackson in the valley, to keep back reinforcements for McClellan while Jackson should move rapidly and strike the Federal flank, and that Whiting volunteered to take his brigade and Hood's and move to Staunton. Thence he returned at the head of Jackson's corps, and in the battle of Gaines' Mill skillfully handled the two brigades under E. M. Law and Hood, driving the enemy from their fortified line, winning the battle. In November, 1862, he was assigned to the district of Cape Fear, N. C., where it was his duty, during the remainder of the war, to keep open the port of Wilmington, of vital importance to the Confederate cause. Aided by Col. William Lamb he provided batteries for defense with consummate skill, and in letter after letter implored troops sufficient to repel the attack which must soon be expected. He was promoted major-general, tardily, in February, 1863. A year later J. E. Johnston wrote him that he mad

y, where he practiced until the beginning of the war on the South. From July, 1862, he served as assistant surgeon of the Tenth South Carolina infantry until November, 1862, when he was promoted full surgeon of the same regiment, with which he remained to the close of the war. In his capacity as surgeon he was at the following enutenant. Upon reorganization in 1862 he was elected second lieutenant of Company C, Fourth South Carolina battalion, was promoted to first lieutenant, and in November, 1862, was appointed to the same rank in Company K, of the Hampton legion, in which he served until the close of the war. He participated in the battles of First Maternal orders and social clubs. In 1869 he was married to Emma, daughter of H. M. Manigault, and they have had thirteen children. George L. Muckenfuss, in November, 1862, at the age of sixteen, enlisted in Company G, Eleventh South Carolina, called the Butler Riflemen, and served as a private until his surrender near High Poin

r escape from Mobile, were among the vessels appropriated in this way; and Farragut was led to express himself strongly on the subject, and to suggest that if any of Wilkes's ships came into his neighborhood, he should adopt a similar line of action. But the fatal mistake made by Wilkes was in detaining the Vanderbilt; and in consequence of this and other causes of dissatisfaction, he was relieved in June, 1863, by Commodore Lardner. After the Alabama had reached the West Indies, in November, 1862, it was foreseen that she could not remain long in that quarter; and the Vanderbilt, one of the fastest steamers in the navy, was fitted out to cruise under Commander Baldwin, with a roving commission, in the direction it was supposed she would take. The orders of the Department to Baldwin, dated January 27, 1863, when the Alabama was on her way to her cruising ground near the equator, show with what remarkable foresight Semmes's movements were predicted, and his probable cruise mapped

gadiergen-eral. In the spring of 1865 the war ended. General Harrison then returned to Texas, and in recent years has been a citizen of Waco. Brigadier-General Thomas Harrison Brigadier-General Thomas Harrison entered the Confederate service as captain of the Eighth Texas cavalry regiment, of which B. F. Terry, the first colonel, was killed at Woodsonville; Thomas S. Lubbock, the second one, died at Nashville; and John A. Wharton, the third, was promoted to brigadier-general in November, 1862. Then Thomas Harrison became colonel of this famous regiment, which, dating its career from Woodsonville, took an active part in the marches and battles of the cavalry of the army of Tennessee. He had risen to the rank of major at the time of the battle of Shiloh, and after the close of the second day's fight he was, on account of a wound received by Colonel Wharton, in temporary command of the Eighth Texas cavalry (otherwise called the Texas Rangers). He was with this command in the K
