to anticipate, that, as Christians civilian

a Christian Nation, there should arise
extraordinary efforts to mitigate its great
evils
The military history of the world es
tubliShcs the rule, that, in every army,
there is more suffering and mortality in
the camp, from disease ulonc, than in the
field Add to this the well known fac;
that from every crimsoned plain, there
arc more than twice as many wounded
carried to the hospital, as dead left on
tie field, and you will have some conccp
ton Of the magnitude ald importance Of
the work in which you are now called to
engage.
