                                                General:

                                                                        Two days since in glancing over some Exchanges obtained from the Enquirer Office I came across the following extract from the Louisville Journal of March 15^th.  Thinking it might interest you to some little extent I have taken the liberty of sending it to you.  Wishing you may live many years to enjoy the gratitude of your countrymen.

                                                            I am General

                                                                        Your Obt Servt
