EDITOR REPUBLICAN: II is with much interest,
mingled with sorrow, that the list If Snldiers
who have departed this life is read in tho camps.
Many fond mothers, loving wives, and children,
who but II few months ago cheerlully gave UP
their dearest friends on earth, to render assist.
ance in defending the flag which we all love h.,
are thus soon to mourn their loss. True, they
die in noble cause, but it is none the less Il great
loss. Lot US see why So many Of our patriotic
meu-soldiers-aro so suddenly called 10 that
bourne from whence no traveller returns.'
We know many are not able bodied when Ell.
tering the service. Many are taken sick u
camp in consequence of tho unavoidable uX-
posure. You cannot fail To agree with uH that
the former should bO gotten out of the service
an soon AS possible; that the " tented field -
IL no place for them that such men are oI
little or no value to tho Government in this
| struggle ; and that the former, when 1t iskmuwr
| that disease has untitled them for duty, (anG
| it is easily ascertaned, If tho surgeon'arc whsr
| they should Dc) are emitted to honorable dis
| charges to return to their families and homes,
whore, with such care Hs would be taken OF
| them, their chances of recovery are n least D
hundred per cent. better than In the camp or
hospital, where proper care cannot well hC
bestowed when there are sO many.
We have watched many Of these unfortunate
msn Willing away their time in camp, con,n.
unlIy becoming weaker and nearer their
graves, who have been accused Of "playng"
sick, both by surgeons and COMPANY ohcerS
and not unirequently by held nicer. How
cruel, aye, damnable. May He who rlscth all
things have mercy on the souls cir Any they
have) of such officers! We now think of tw"
men, who have been treated in this manner
who have recently died. One Of lhe poor le
lows had his discharge papers made out as far
AZ could be by the regmental surge"n, but
failed to get the consent Of the commander,
who had been made to believe the men we're
"playinR" sick.
Is II not high time that tyrants of this stripe
are found out and removed from command
Shoulder straps make tyrants IN this war
some Of whom are no better than murdorers.
