j How tne world hurries on, may be part
ly seen in the fact that a recent biography
of Jefferson Davis condenses the whole of
his early life into a couple of sentences.
"He graduated with honor at West Point,
at 20 years of age, in 1812. He was soon
t after appointed Hrev. Second Lieutenant in
the 0. S. ariny, and at his own request, at
piice assigned to active service, in a regi
rnent commanded by Zachary Taylor.f'
This is about all, except that he$ser.ved as
' ah1 infantry and staff officer in the Black
Huvvlsj War ot 1531-2 with distinction.'!
' The regiment commanded by Colonel
v Taylor was the 1st of Infantry, and atjthe
, tiin-e ivhen young Davis was assigned to it,
. was sVationed Ht Prairie Du Chien, far re
moved from the border of civilization. Col.
Taylor had been ordered to keep open
comfrjunication between Lake Superior

jvip joined him, the sound judgment of the
v commander selected the young man to su-.

plrintend the erection of Fort .Wimebago,

young Davis, and he was sent forth through
the perils of the wilderness, to exercise an
important command, far removed': from his
