Thia artist la exceedingly popular," aad there are-good grounds for the favor with which aha appears te be; regarded. Ia the first place, she is the fortunate possessor of a soprano afogato a err rare -roles in the United States, and.

Indeed, the world over. la the second place, she has a sympathetic presence aad a manner marked by much simple elagaaee, end there can be no doubt that the influence of face aad bearing Is of no mean potency. Aad, finally, the lady sings unaffectedly, and, a a rule, with facility aad truthfulness of intonation. When It is borne In mind hum Ilia ting though the admission may sssm thst there is not a single first-rate soprano, except Miss Kellogg, aow before' the AmcrVan public, It will be readily understood that the gift and acquirements of Mis Thuriby, es set forth above, ought to have quite as general recognition aa they are securing. Oa the other hand, while It is perfectly proper to assign to Miss Thursby a high rank among American songstress.

It Is just as well not to overestimate her value. Her rows is of excellent quality, but It value la Its brilliancy, ahown especially la passsbls staccato, 'pale beside Mm, dl MuTaka's or Carlotta Paul's, or Mile. Marimoa'a. Her execution ia not invariably taultlsss her trilling, ia particular, being sometimes ss occasionally ta the air from "The Star of the 2forth," last Bight nothing more thaa a vibrato, while her asseadrng seals, ta the cam aria, were far from perfection. The chief defect la Miss Thuriby' work, however, la its total lack of expreeaiveneaa.

If we did not take Into account the cweetaeas Inherent to the tone of the voles, we should say that the lady piped rather thaa sang her numbers, for there Is Just a much feeling la one of the organs with which the birds la the Black Forest are taught their tunc as In her frigid delivery of word aad aotec Th greed sir from "Dor Zaabernoet" aad tne Invitation to the Walt," the air from The Star of the North "aad the ballads which followed were, yesterday, all oa a plane ia this respect, Mocart's aria was, however, rendered with more, than usual affect, while the performer's' lack ef the mmtri which comcc of scatimcat aad the uneoaselousaeas of effort begotten of gealus and vast experience, was unpleasantly poreeptibl ia the Invitatioa to the Walts."

Prom that time until the eloe of the war be was seeeatiallr a ranger, and covered in hi raids the whole territory from the Ohio River on the north to the Totnbigbee on the south i. from ths mountains of North Carolina to the Valley of the Mississippi.

He proved himself the most regularly uceeful of all the Southern cavalry leaders. This was due aa much to good fortune a hi own talents. He never had a ctod otfirer sent against him. and he seldom attacked except where he greatly outnumbered his As a scientific commander, he was much th inferior of Wheeler or Stuarts but he had all the Qualities of a guerrilla chieftain, sad the history of his exploits abundantly roves that he displayed them. He was swift and arlng tn his advance, stubborn and defiant ia retreat, cool and ready ia face of temporary disaster, and akillful la wielding the Urge force he commanded.

Whea ia the height of hi celebrity a a commander he waa the described: "In person, Forrest is a littl over sis feet In height, and Wrongly built i apparently about 84 years of age, la the perfection of vigorous manhood, insensible to align. Incapable alike of sympathy or, fecr.

A story is related of hia reprimanding a young Lieutenant with cuch severity that the latter, stung beyound en durance, drew his pistol. Forrest deliberately walked up to him, and using his great physical superiority to th ttermost, literally cut tne young man to the ground with hie bowle-knlfe. and then eoolly wiping the bloody blade of the knife, moon ted, and rode off as if nothing had happened. it is tn connection witn on or th most atrocious and cold-blooded niaiacrs that ever dlsa-raeed civilised warfare that hi name wQl forever be inseparably aeeoclated. pillow Format" waa the title wmen tne area conterreu upon mm.

ana oy this he will be remembered by the present genera tion, ana oy it no wiu pass into atstorr. Th mssaaoCe occurred on the 12th of April, leod. Fort Pillow ta 63 mile above Memphis, and its capture was effected Curing Forreet celebrated raid through Teunecace, a State which was at the time practically In possession of the Union forces. Gen. fehennan had started on aa expedition from Ticks-burg, tn February, through Mississippi be waa to be supported by Geo.

Smith with a cavalry column, which, marching from Memphis, was to join him at Meridian. Sherman's march from west to east aero th Stat was so ran-. idly and skillfully don thst it was a mere promenade. The Confederate commsnder. Gen.

could make no effeetivc racists nea to him. but he bent all hi energies to preventing the junction of Smith cavalry column with Sherman. For thia purpose he ordered all hia cavalry to join Forrest, and Intrusted thst commander with the task of heading off This was done most effectually, for the conduct of Oca. William Sooy Smith seems to hsve been marked from the start with utter Inefficiency. His start from Memphis waa made late enough to give Forrest time to eolleet all his force for resistance the anarch of th Union cavalry eras an utterly disorganized on, so that when, on the of February, tt reached Okalona, 1U0 miles north of Meridian, discipline seem to have been utterly relaxed.

Here Forrest' cavalry met them, and at the first charge the Union force were -practically runted. Everything fell Into utter confusion, and Smith had to retreat, pur-sued by tb enemy for lO days over the waited country through which he had just advanced. Forrest now saw hia opportunity for a raid Into the heart of Tcnnosoc. The garrisons there had been weakened by the concentration of tore for th 8pring campaign, and he had nothing to fear In the wsy of a superior force. Late in March he passed into thst State, and ths route of hia advance was marked by outrage and brutalities of the moat cold-blooded character.

He captured most, of the small garrison on hia line of march, la each case summoning ths defenders to surrender nnder a threat that If he had ta atorm the works he would give no quarter. On the 12th of April he appeared before Fort Pillow. This fort was garrisoned by 500 troops, about half of them colored. Forrest 'a force numbered about 0,000 or 6.00O. Hia first attack waa a complete surprise, and th commanding officer was killed early in the engagement.

Still th defenders foment so gallantly that at e'clock the enemy had gained no material advantage. Forrest then cent in a flag of truce, demanding unconditional surrender. While the flag waa Bring. Forreet' men treacherously crept into positions which they had been unable ta take by fight, (a trick tha-v had played at other place, I and thua were In a lituatioa to make the assault which aooa followed under every advantage. After a short consultation, hlajor Bradford, on wnom the command had devolved, sent word refusing to surrender.

Without dlv crimination of age or sex, men, women, and children, the sick aad woemded in the hoapttala, were butchered without snerey. Tb bloody work went ea until night put a temporary atop to it but tt waa renewed at early dawn, when th mhumaa captors searched the vicinity of the tort, dragging eat wounded fugitive and killing them where they lay.
