ey pushed on, under his gallant leadership, and completely routed the panic-stricken stricken soldiers of Fighting Joe Hooker. After Generals Jackson and A. P. Hill were wounded, General Rodes was in supreme command, but he modestly and patriotically yielded to General J. E. B. Stuart, who had been sent for by General Pendleton of the artillery. After this battle he was promoted full Major-General, and put in charge of Battle's, Ramseur's (now Cox's), Doles' (now Cook's), and Daniel's (now Lewis') brigades. General Rodes was a precise and somewhat stern military man, of resolute expression and soldierly bearing, and enjoyed the implicit confidence of his superior officers, as well as his troops. A fragment of shell struck him behind the ear, and in a few hours this brave, skillful and trusted officer yielded up his heroic life as a holocaust to his country's cause. He married the popular and accomplished Miss V. H. Woodruff, of Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and left also an infant son, hi

rmanent place in Southern literature, and be widely read and admired. The family. By Rev. Dr. B. M. Palmer. This admirable little book, besides other imporant discussions, cuts up by the roots Woman's Rights and all kindred heresies. We, of course, think none the less of Dr. Palmer, and his books, because he was one of the originators, and the first president of the Southern Historical Society. This also is a Richmond made book, printed by Whittet & Shepperson, stereotyped by L. Lewis, and its publication superintended by Rev. Dr. E. T. Baird, Secretary of the Presbyterian Publication Committee (to whom we are indebted for a copy), and it is as beautiful a specimen of the bookmaker's art as one often sees. The seige of Savannah, in December, 1864, and the Confederate operations in Georgia and the Third military district of South Carolina, during General Sherman's march from Atlanta to the sea.

I deemed it inadvisable to press beyond the causeways, as the enemy on the peninsula were observed to be considerably reinforced from Dixon's island, and as the enemy's gunboats and land batteries controlled the peninsula, and it was of little consequence to us to hold it. On the 4th the enemy continued shelling our pickets, and bombarded Pringle and the lines all day, and made several attacks at night upon our picket lines near Grimball's causeway, which were repulsed with loss. Captain Lewis, Thirty-second Georgia, commanded our pickets at the point of assault, and deserves much credit for his stout and successful resistance. Major Manigault, siege train, commanded the general picket line. The enemy shelled our lines and pickets with mortars all night. On July 5th and 6th, the enemy maintained the show of strength on the peninsula, which, as far as could be ascertained, had not been diminished, and made several demonstrations on our lines, which were checked.

to their ashes! Lists of names and the postoffice address of persons likely to subscribe to our papers have been sent us by a number of our friends. We are anxious to secure similar lists from every quarter. Our books — the bound volume of our papers, and our March and April numbers on Treatment of prisoners, bound into a volume — have been very highly commended as beautiful specimens of the book-maker's art. Mr. Geo. W. Gary has executed our printing in admirable style, and Mr. L. Lewis has done our stereotyping very satisfactorily. We are also under special obligations to our binder, Mr. W. S. Simons, for the excellent taste he has displayed in getting up our styles of binding, the skillful manner in which he has done the work, and the very moderate rates of his charges. We thus have Richmond made books (paper, printing, stereotyping, and binding), which are really beautiful, and which will compare favorably with those produced by the great publishing houses of the
