FROM WASHINGTON,
Correspondence ofthe Atlas.
Debate in the Senate upon the
Ten Regiment Bill.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10, 1919.

y
A debate sprung up today, in the Senate,
on a resolution offered on Thursday, by Mr.
Mnngum, asking the President to communi-
cate TO the Senate the plan of operations
marked out for General Scott to pursue in
Mexico. Mr. Cass,who is the supporter ofall
the mandates OF the Executive, opposed
The passage of the resolution, and placed his
opposition on the ground that il would not
he compatible with the public interests TO
have the Information made public which the
resolution asked for.
Mr. Mangum made n fine reply. lie said
ifit had come 10 this poiGt in this govern
mcnt, that the Senate could not be trusted
with information, it was time that It should
be known. Here we were asked TO vote men
and money to carry on war begun by the
Executive, and when we ask for certain intor-
nation respecting the use the Executive in
tended to nuke of these supplies, we were TO
be told it was nCne of our business. Thus
WIS the President assuming TO himself
supreme command, and the two Houses of
Congress had only TO comply with the roynl
will.
The Senate then proceeded to the consd-
Grafton of the Ten Regiment Bill, & Mr. But
Ter. uocoioco) Of $. c., spoke upon it for two
hours. He advocated the adoption of his a
mcndment in place of the bill, which amend
nent gocs for adding 300 mento each reg-
ment now in service, aud thus avoiding the
necessity for the President appointing some
five or six hundred new officers. lie argued
against prosecuting the war, as urged ny the
Executive. He was in favor ofNlt CaiS9un.s
project of taking defensive line. lie cEitI-
csed very severely parts Of the Presidents
Message, particularly that part oft which
claimed that we possessed already, by right
of conquest, parts of Mexico which we held
by our armies, and for which he (thc Prcsi-
dent asked Congress to form civil terriiorl-
al governments. Mr. Butler deniqd that I'M
der the law ofualions we possessed any such
right. have been informed that Mr. Butler
speaks in the name of six gentlemen on his
side of the chamber lfso, the ten regiment
bill will have very tight rub through the
Senate.

SPECIAL RSLIGrous INTEREST. The Bos-

England, says: "We have reports also of
the existence ofunusut, religious interest in
Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois, Tennessee, India
ma and Mississippi. Indeed, from nearI ev-
cry section the country we are receiving
limitations of the existence, here and there,
of special religious interest at the present
time; and this, not confined to any particular
sect or denomination, and as would appear,
not generally the result of any special exer-
tons, out Of the blessing of heaven on the

Affection for the Dead.

by MELANCHOLY.
When those we loved have passed to the
vale,
Where the spoiler finds his prey;
Why mourn we them, or why bewail! 81
Our tears may not bid them stay. -
Why wound the heart with the pain ofgrief!
i. Why sorrow with fearful eye!
Hope we from death moment brief!
'Twere vain for we must die.
All! there's tie which binds the heart
To the heart of those we mourn;
Tho rent in twain, it will not part. t
Tho heart from heart be torn. ,.... "
For hearts once wed by friendships chain,
Tho one be struck by DEATH; d..
Yet, heart to heart will leap again
And speak with a living breath.
Then, let the tears of affection flow,
They seem to be natures debt;
And let thy heart, deaths language know
For thou mayst speak yet.

TIE DEsEnfEgs.-The friends of Col.
George w. Morgan of Ohio, who so gallant
ly distinguished himself in the Mexican
campaigns, shouo.ed him with public din
ner ut Columbus, on the 10th inst. The
Colonel made and eloquent. and patriotic
speech on the occasion, reviewed the whole
war, and defended its origin and prosecu-
ton. In the course of his remarks he used
the following language in relation to the de-
ser,ers from our army, about whom 80 much
has been said in the papers: !
Col. Morgan said that he felt called upon
to notice one matter, which had been much
misrepreeented 1t is charged that Ill who
deserted the standard and the country they
had sworn to protect, were citizens of for
eign birth. This is untrue. 1t is true that
among these traitors there were Irishmen
and Germans. and citizens born in 9TH
or lands, yet the mass of them were born
under tho protection Of the flag they deser-
ted, and in the land against which they
raised their traitorous hands. Tie 5eseT7
tors were not confined to any land-shey
were fsoyn oil nations represented in the
Army.
I'm the foreign soldiers in the army,
none ore bstter--no blood is more freely split
than the Irish and German--thc same class
Of men first charged by moral traitors ct
home with DESERVING the flag of their adopted
country. Although not born under the pro-
lection of that 'starspangled banner, yet
none love it better, or expose their lives
more eagerly 10 it's defupce. An anecdote
would illustrate this. He, (Col, Nd had
chosen for reasons that struck him at the
time with force, gallant Irishman for his
standard bearer. Objections were made by
some officers to the selection, contending
that it should hesntrusted to an American,
one to the manor born With him, (said
Col. ny such ar objection lad no weight.
In one of the battles near Mexicc-at mo-
ment when the storm Of battle ragged the
iercest--at the darkesth hour ofthe conflict,
when death was making fearful havoc in the
ranks, the balls rafting like hale through
the timed ranks o. the regmcnt-the stan
dard bearer struck in the faea~by o epent
ball, fell. carrying with BIN the flag. All
who noticed, supposed him dead A gal
liant youth of the regiment, ecarce 10 years
Of age, forgettul ofevery thing, save thatth
flag was in lie dust, rushed forward, seized
and raised it, and shaking out its folds,
Esprung forward to the assault. The Irish
man, stunned for moment, raised himself,
and wipng the blood which blinded him,
! from bis eyes, saw the flag placed in his
charge some rods in advance; herushed for
ward, bloody and ghestly with his wounds,
and seized the loved banner, and in his pc
cnliar language sexclaiming, "Holy Jases!
am worth dozen dead men YETI" and,
wounded as he was, he carried that flag
through the remainder Of the fight, until it
waved in victory. This is but one instance
Of the devotion Of the citizens Of foreign
birth. Others might be given.
