CHAPTER LXI VIGOROUS DEFENCE OF STANTON. MEETS WITH A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. DETAILED TO ATTEND SCOTT'S FUNERAL. MUSTERED OUT OF SERVICE. SYMPATHETIC LETTER FROM STANTON. RESULT OF PHILOSOPHICAL STUDIES. LAST ILLNESS AND DEATH. SHERMAN'S FRIENDLY REMONSTRANCE THE great Civil War was at an end The moral sense and political judgment of the North were vindicated, as far as war could vindicate them. The rebel armies had gone home and begun the renovation of the desolated plantations; the armies of the Union were slowly disbanded and mustered out of the service. There were days of great rejoicing and celebration in all the Northern cities. In the section of the country which had been in revolt the soldiers in gray pluckily took up the burden of life again, and the difficult work of political reconstruction began. "Sept. 13. To-day I have sent to the publisher a revised copy of the Red Book of Appin, to which I have added the interpretations of Palmerin, for a new edition. It is my wish also to publish something in exposition of the Arabian Nights Tales, in which, generally, the Love of which so much is said is the mystic love of Nature figured as a Lady, usually a princess. In the gospel it is represented by the Magi following the star (Conscience). "Washington, Oct. 9. Published another letter in the Chronicle this morning on the subject of exchanges. I am not eulogizing Mr. Stanton, but am stating some facts as an act of justice." After the war the great Secretary was bitterly and fiercely attacked in the press and charged with refusing to exchange prisoners and thereby wantonly protracting the sufferings of our soldiers in Andersonville and Libby. General Hitchcock Vigorous Defence of Stanton 479 vigorously defended him in a series of carefully...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fifty Years in Camp and Field: Diary of Major-General Ethan Allen Hitchcock, U. S. A The work which I have edited and herewith submit to the public is the diary of an eminent American soldier - Major-General Ethan Allen Hitchcock, a grandson of the Revolutionary hero Ethan Allen of Ticonderoga. General Hitchcock died after having been in the army nearly half a century, and he left behind him a vast accumulation of notebooks and other writings describing in minute detail all of our important wars since 1815. He kept a journal during his entire life, in which he made systematic records almost every day and often many times a day - a voluminous chronicle of passing events which has no parallel in the literary remains of any other distinguished American. Though he wrote with grace and fluency he disparaged the value of his manuscript and said, "I keep this diary for my own use and convenience - to jog my memory." A graduate of West Point during its earliest days, he was first an instructor there and afterwards Commandant of the Corps of Cadets of that institution. He was engaged in the Florida wars and removed the last of the Seminoles; in the Mexican War he was first with General Taylor in the north and later General Scott's Inspector-General in the south, - at the right hand of that commander from Vera Cruz to the capital. After the conclusion of peace, while tarrying in New Orleans in 1848, General Hitchcock was vigorously besieged by the participants in the Mexican War, who united in entreating him to write a history of that contest. They knew that he had disapproved of the motives of the administration which began it and yet had been actively present in the battles which effected the conquest of the invaded country - and therefore that he would be likely to be impartial.

Download or read book The US Army and the Texas Frontier Economy written by Thomas T. Smith and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seventy million dollars in fifty-five years. From Texas' annexation in 1845 until the turn of the twentieth century, the U.S. Army pumped at least that much or more into the economy of the fledgling state, a fact that directly challenges the popular heritage of Texas as the state with roots of pioneer capitalism and fervent independence. In The U.S. Army and the Texas Frontier Economy, 1845-1900, Thomas T. Smith sheds light on just who bankrolled the evolution of Texas into viable statehood. Smith draws on extensive research gathered from both government archives and Texas army posts in order to evaluate the symbiotic relationship between army quartermasters and the economy of the young state. Texas was the army's largest--and most costly--engagement, absorbing up to thirty percent of the total operating budget and channeling that currency into the commercial development of its frontier. Smith expands on historian Robert Wooster's theory that the military was engaged in an alliance with the political authority in Texas, and using documents such as army contracts for freighting, foraging, and fort leasing, he illustrates how federal fiscal activity spurred commercial growth for the citizens of Texas. Besides the obvious development of towns on the skirts of military bases and of roads between them, the establishment of military spending as a bedrock of the Texas economy and the protector of middle class interests shaped the future of the state's commercial prosperity. Writing with exceptional detail and clarity, Smith traces the emergence of the army's influence and includes analyses of information on army spending and development such as the introduction of army weather and telegraph services to the state, as well as accounts of real estate transactions involving the fort building program. Smith also accounts for army failures, maintaining that no one was truly prepared for the reality of western expansion. As an examination of the complex yet mutually beneficial economic relationship between the nation and the state, The U.S. Army and the Texas Frontier Economy, 1845-1900 is ideal for anyone interested in the early days of the state as well as in U.S. military and frontier history.
