A statement concerning him in the last WEEKLY was not correct in saying that the appointment was unique among those of its class because Col. Gordon was not a West Point graduate. <A photograph of Col. Gordon is given elsewhere. The Morning News of Savannah spoke as follows of the ap- pointment: “We are sure that there will be n dissenting voice when we say that the appointment of Col. W. W. Gordon to the position of Brigadier General of Volunteers is an eminently fit one. In selecting Col. Gordon for so conspicu- ous and responsible a place the Presi- dent has made no mistake. He makes it clear that his aim is to have only competent men in places where ability, experience and soldierly qualities are demanded. That Col. Gordon has all of these no one who knows him doubts. In the Civil War Col. Gordon was | noted for characteristics which indicate the true soldier, and through all the years’ since that war he has ‘been. enthusiastically devoted to military matters. The cavalry regiment of which he is now in command is a superb organization. It is doubtful if it has a superior, if an equal, in the country outside of the regular army. Its high standard of excellence is due to the knowledge, experience and untir- info efforts of its colonel. * * -*> Col Gordon’s appointment will not be criti- cised. It will be commended in the North as well as in the South, because his qualifications as a soldier are well known to military men in all parts of the country.” "77 S.—Morris B.

This is just now a very - practical question with many readers of the WEEKLY. | have established a religious _peri- Odical which affords a young college man who is interested in Church work a most congenial and attractive open- ing. The right man with from $3000 to $5000 capital and a willingness to start at the beginning and grow up with an enterprise, has here an excep- tional opportunity. I should have jumped at such a chance when | was about to graduate; possibly, it has occurred to me, some bright young Yale man of to-day might see an Open Door here also. I should be pleased to correspond with or meet personally any such person. HENRY.R: ELLIOT (Yale, 71), 111 Fifth Avenue, New York City. THEODORE B.
