To Miss Lucy Searle. Wayland, June 5, 1861. I return Silas Marner with cordial thanks. It entertained me greatly. His honest attempts at education were extremely amusing. What a genuine touch of nature was Eppie in the tole hole! What a significant fact it is in modern literature, that the working class are so generally the heroes. No princes in disguise are necessary now to excite an interest in the reader. The popular mind is educated up to the point of perceiving that carpenters, weavers, etc., are often real princes in disguise. The longer I live, the more entirely and intensely do my sympathies go with the masses. I am glad to see some amendment with regard to sending back fugitive slaves. Those at Fort Monroe are to be protected so long as Virginia continues in rebellion. God grant that all the slave-holders may rebel, and remain in rebellion, till the emancipation of their slaves is accomplished! Success to Jeff. Davis, till he goads the free States into doing

e position at Governor's Island of superintendent of the general recruiting service of the United States army. He resigned early in 1861 to take part in the Southern struggle for independence. President Davis, who had known him from his schoolboy days, had served with him in garrison and in field, and with pride watched him as he gallantly led. a storming party up the rocky height at Monterey, promoted him from colonel, C.

Subsequently he was put in command of the Aquia district, with the rank of major-general, the other two districts of the department being under Stonewall Jackson and Beauregard. He commanded a division during the Seven Days battles before Richmond, and at the conclusion of that campaign took command of the department of North Carolina, whence he was soon transferred to the com
