Columbus (Georgia, United States) (search for this): article 15
Pictures of Southern Generals. --The Columbus (Ga.) Times publishes from the pen of its army correspondent, the following pictures of three of our prominent Generals: Gen. Lee has, I believe, won his way to everybody's confidence. In appearance he is tall, portly, and commanding. His dress is usually a plain Brigadier's uniform, a black felt hat, with the brim turned down, and he wears a short grizzled beard all round his face. He has much of the Washingtonian dignity about him, and is much respected by all with whom he is thrown. At Sharpsburg I saw him on the field during the heat of the action. He was surrounded by his staff and a perfect squadron of couriers. He was engaged in calmly viewing the storm of battle, and giving orders in a manner of cool reliance. Aids and couriers were hurrying to and from the right, left and centre, and the whole disposition of forces seemed under his perfect control. Gen. Longstreet is stout and fleshy, and of good height, and

Longstreet is stout and fleshy, and of good height, and has a quiet, courageous look.

In this engagement he was second in command of the army, and his old corps keenly felt the need of his able handling. I was surprised at Stonewall Jackson's appearance. He has been described as a sort of clown. I never yet saw him riding with his knees drawn up like a monkey, and his head resting upon his breast. He has a first-rate face, and see
