Saturday, thereby flanking a grand military and civic reception for General Lee, which had been planned by the joint committee of the Legislature of Arkansas and the citizens of Little Rock for 12 o'clock Saturday the hour at which we were expected. But we found elegant quarters at the Grand Windsor, and Major John D. Adams and the committee soon found us out and extended every courtesy. A stream of callers, a visit to the State House, and a call upon Governor Berry (the able one-legged Confederate Governor of Arkansas), and a delightful drive around the beautiful city, filled the day, and at night General Lee had a fine audience and a splendid reception. We saw enough of Little Rock to be charmed with the city, and to resolve to go there again at our very first opportunity. But at 12 we were off for Memphis, to reach which place we had, because of the overflow, to go by rail

ederacy, General Johnston resigned his command intact and with good faith to the government he served, and set out on horseback to Richmond, Va., and offered his services to the Confederacy. General Johnston's services were eagerly accepted by President Davis, his companion in his academic career and his comrade in arms, who knew his full worth. He was made a Brigadier-General by order bearing date September 10, 1861, and assigned to Department No. 2, embracing the States of Tennessee and Arkansas, and that part of Mississippi west of the New Orleans, Jackson and Great Northern and Central Railroads; also the military operations in Kentucky, Kansas and the Indian Territory—a command imperiel in its extent and with unlimited military discretion. His biographer well remarks: He lacked nothing except men and munitions of war, and the means of obtaining them. His army had to be enlisted before it could be led. General Johnston arrived at Nashville on September 14, 1861, and, acting

Lee has consented to make the address at the meeting of the Confederate Association of Missouri, at Jefferson City, August the 28th, and to repeat his lecture on Chancellorsville, for the benefit of the Southern Historical Society, at such points in Missouri as General Marmaduke may arrange for.

The Nathan Hale of Arkansas—David O. Dodd. By Prof. W. C. Parham. Benton, ark., May 26TH, 1883. Rev. Dr. J. Wm. Jones, Secretary Southern Historical Society. My Dear Sir,—I enjoyed the great pleasure of hearing General Fitzhugh Lee's graphic description of the Battle of Chancellorsville, in Little Rock, last winter.
