Morton, General William Preston, General George D. Johnston and Colonel W. P. C. Breckinridge. The organization goes into operation under most flattering auspices, and we shall expect to have good reports from it. There have been also steps taken for the organization of a similar society in Louisville, and the details ofished by the Confederate Congress; but as a rule we must confine our publications to original matter, and we again beg our friends in the West to send it to us. Let those who made the history tell it. We expect to publish in our next issue General Breckinridge's report of the battle of Chickamauga. Our book Notices are crowded out this month.

Editorial Paragraphs. General William Preston, of Lexington, has been elected Vice-President of our Society for Kentucky, to fill a vacancy caused by the resignation of General S. B. Buckner, who wrote that while feeling the deepest interest in the Society and its work, his frequent absence from home precluded him from giving us the active co-operation desirable. He warmly advised the election of General Preston, whom he regarded as every way fitted for the position. To his gallant and distinguished services as a soldier, General Preston adds high character, wide influence and that chaste oratory which seems to be the natural inheritance of the Prestons, and we doubt not that we have committed the interests of the Society in Kentucky into most worthy hands. The Kentucky Branch of the Southern Historical Society was organized at Lexington, on the 9th of December, by the election of the following officers: Acting President--General William Preston.
