He entered West Point, graduating with dls1 tinotion in 1838. Remaining at i West Point, he was appointed Lleui tenant of Engineers, later being assigned to Newport, Rhode Island. In 184 0. he was in charge of the | Louisiana fortifications at New Orleans, being again in his native -date During the Mexican war. he rendered valuable service and was I twice wounded. In 18(50. Beaure-j , gard was appointed superintendent at West Point with the rank of I colonel. About this time, the south was in; a desperate state of agitation. South Carolina, the Palmetto State, heingi the first to secede from the I'nion.j Louisiana -non follow ijgc In 18(51. Beauregard resigned from the army. ' An ardent southerner, dictated by heart and conscience, he returned to his beloved southland and east his lot w :th the Confederacy. He was soon placed In command of the Conf< derate forces at Fort Snnil-r. the scene <>f th> first victory of th< war between the -tates. Here, after-several days of t? rrific bombardment. with feeble resistance. on Ar.ril 14 18(51. the Fort was surrendered by Major Anderson. It was here that Beauregard was hailed as the first hero of the Confederacy. Beauregard was essentially an en gineer, ann nnor tn*> surrender or Fort Sumter. ho busied himself in organizing the Confederate army and ; drawing plans of attack. The Con; federate congress, in appreciation of I this valuable work, conferred on him . the rank of general.

Another , horse was provided and he continued fighting. It was at this battle that the human side of Oeneral Beauregard's character was beautifully portrayed. Riding over the battlefield, he found > "Captain Rlcketts lying on the ground desperately wounded. Recognizing . an old friend of years gone by. he asked hlhi If he could be of service. . He then sent his own surgeons to care for the wounded captain, and c detailed one of his staff to make him comfortable when he was carried to . Richmond as a prisoner of war.

In 18H2. General Heauregard was transferred to the Department ol the | Mississippi, strengthening the dei f< ?nce8 at. Nashville, and later, assuming command of the southern forces in the valley of the Mississippi until summoned to join General Albert Sidney Johnston in resisting the advance of General Grant on the field of Shiloh. General Johnston receiving his death wound in this battle, the command developed unon Dean regard. He continued the fight, capturing General Prentiss with several thousand men. At the close of the first day's tight, southern hopes were high. General Beauregard with an army worn and weary to exhaustion, rested his hopes on the arrival in the night of Gen--| ra 1 Van Horn with an army of twenty thousand men, but Van I)orn did not arrive, and the morrow found !' < aim gard without the expected reinforcements. Grave fears now possessed him, but realizing the splendid [courage and hopes of his army, and! 1 relying on their tested valor, ho faced [th?' dilllcult task before him. Twentylive thousand fresh troops were added to the 1'nion army during the night to bo hurled the next day on the Confederates. Karlv the next morning, Shiloh i w;?- again the storm center and General Ileani? gui d, hour after hour, watch* d his nten first gaining and then losing. Gate in the afternoon, con\inced that he was fighting a losing battle, lie prudently and killfully withdrew. Addressing his soldiers later, he said: "You have done your i duty. Your countrymen are proud of your deeds on the bloody field of Shiloh, confident in the ultimate result of vour valor." The loss in tills battle on each side exceeded ten .thousand men and never before on ithe continent, had there been fighting e<|tial to it. Throughout the remaining years of the war. Beauregard gave material aid to the Confederacy, but bis career during the last three years of the war, while always meritorious, was not as brilliant ns in the beginning. In 1862-63, ho was in charge of the defenses of historic old Charleston. In 1864. ho left Charleston, returning to Virginia, where his timely ar-1 rival and repulse of Butler, saved Richmond from capture. At the' close of this year, he was assigned to the military division of the southwest. working hard to check Sherman's "March to the Sea.'' In Anril 1865, he surrendered at Greensboro, N. C. Thus we see Beauregard throughout the four years of our great conflict fairly earning the distinction of southern hero. All honor to Pierre Oustave Toutant de Beauregard and to our southern soldiers, who bravely fought for a "Lost Cause!" After the war, General Beauregard made his home in New Orleans, where he died in the year 18!>3.
