Bixby, head pilot of the Union fleet, and Montgomery, Commodore of the Confederate fleet. Both saw a great deal of activeservice during the war, and achieved high reputations for pluck andcapacity.
As we neared Memphis, we began to cast about for an excuse to stay withthe 'Gold Dust' to the end of her course--Vicksburg. We were sopleasantly situated, that we did not wish to make a change. I had anerrand of considerable importance to do at Napoleon, Arkansas, butperhaps I could manage it without... quitting the 'Gold Dust. ' I said asmuch; so we decided to stick to present quarters.
The boat was to tarry at Memphis till ten the next morning. It is abeautiful city, nobly situated on a commanding bluff overlooking theriver. The streets are straight and spacious, though not paved in a wayto incite distempered admiration. No, the admiration must be reservedfor the town's sewerage system, which is called perfect; a recentreform, however, for it was just the other way, up to a few years ago--areform resulting from the lesson taught by a desolating visitation ofthe yellow-fever.
