c corps. Through the influence of the Honorable Henry A. Wise, the brilliant and influential member of Congress from Virginia, who had also married a daughter of Mr. Sergeant, Mr. Meade was, on the 19th of May, 1842, appointed by President Tyler a second lieutenant in the Corps of Topographical Engineers, and was continued as an assistant on the survey of the northeastern boundaryline, upon which duty he remained until November, 1843, when, being relieved, he was ordered to report to Major Hartman Bache, of the Topographical Engineers, on duty in the construction of light-houses and in surveys on Delaware Bay, Headquarters in Philadelphia. This station at Philadelphia was in all respects a most agreeable one to Lieutenant Meade. His duties were of the most congenial kind, and made doubly agreeable by the pleasant relations existing between him and his superior officer. He was for the first time able, through some probable permanence of abode, to have his own house, and in his fr

He was soon at work assisting Major Bache in the construction of the Brandywine light-house in Delaware Baed to his old station in Philadelphia. He here continued with Major Bache until the completion of the Brandywine light-house in the summertraining, through special training in such work in the office of Major Bache, through the special aptitude which he had for it, and through te house which he had taken soon after being ordered to duty with Major Bache in 1843, and for the last three years enjoying the society of hi of his charge of the Fourth Light-House District his old chief, Major Bache, who was ordered to the Pacific coast on light-house constructiopment through his association, as assistant for some years, with Major Bache.

And thus, from every point of view, a long, unclouded future seemed assured. His last official letter notified the department of the death of Colonel Hartman Bache, of the engineers, one of his earliest commanding officers, and no one who saw him at the funeral of that officer dreamed that within a month they would be called upon to perform the same sad rites for him. He was, as usual, in his office on October 31, attending to his duties and seemingly in excellent health. About noon Mrs. Meade called for him, and they left the office together for their daily walk. They had gone but a short distance when the general complained of severe pa
