He was a,major general at 30.— McClellan, now a rotund man with bending shoulders, has not changed much ol late. He is rich, and entertains well in his New York city home.

Fremont is no longer rich. He and his wife, Jessie Benton Fremont, are forgotten in crowded New York. I)ou Carlos Buell runs an iron furnace in Kentucky. Banks is a United States Marshall.
