ty carry, and ct" says the men will probably
be provided before long with A tents. They
cannot be carried, and as was remarked at the
outset, by taking little pains, these self same
'thin, coarse, 'slaZy cotton Sheets, can be con-
verted into houses as much better than a COM
mon A tent, as the latter is better than none
at all.
Again. "In order to the speedy settlement
of these national troubles, an advance must be
made while the roads are in condition." How
is an advance to be made? Some of the men
in an adjoining brigade, have been until this
week obliged to go barefooted. and need not
take at" beyond the limits of his own compa-
ny to show him men who are absolutely in
need of clothing to protect their feet and limbs
from the rain and cold We are short of cloth
ing. Stockings are scarce, shirts are few in
number, while pants and drawers are almost
worn out, and a thin summer blouse is all the
men have to cover their bodies except their
overcoats, which many are compelled to wear
to cover their rags. and then hover about the
fires to keep warm. Would "T." order march
under these circumstances, knowing that eve
ry new move only increases the distance from
the depot Of supplies, and that a halt must be
made somewhere to enable the boys to clothe
themselves. so as not to freeze while moving
away from the articles necessary to keep them
warm? But our clothing has arrived, though
the supply came by steam, and not by the slow
coach drawn by mules or horses. The men
will be comfortable soon.
The boys are revelng in the luxuries of rich
baked beans, boiled rice, roast beef done on
stick, and a dish made of hard bread powder
ed mixed with water and fried, making capt.
tai fritters. Surely we cannot complain of our
grub; and yet | would not give fig for reg
iment that did not have some grumblers
They are often the life of the camp.
But enough. Hoping that with the opening
of the spring, our regiment will again show
itself in the old loved Forest City, we close.

CRIME IN FRANCE AND ENGLAND-Of the
1890 prisoners who were this year condemned
to hard labor in France, 1865 are sentenced to
hard labor for life, 2239 to hard labor from
eleven to twenty years, 354 to terms Of from
twenty-one to fifty years, leaving the remain
der, 30I0, to terms of from five to ten years.
With this greater severity of punishment and
its rarer remission it is worthy of remark that
there exists in France a considerably less
amount both in crime and the rate of second
convictions. In country with a population
of thirty-six millions, the assaults under in
dictment in the superior courts are found to
amount to no more, than between two and
three thousand per annum. Serious crimes
against property rate only at between three
and four thousand, and in the courts of sum-
mary jurisdiction the offenders under trial were
only 252, los. With us we had, in 1861, no less
than 10, convicts undergoing punishment
in our ten convict prisons. Our convictions
under trial by jury in 1851 for population of
seventeen millions extended to more than
twelve thousand cases, while our summary
convictions rose to 255, ,S03.
Important as are the conclusion we draw
from from these figures as they stand by them
selves, the significance becomes instructively
enhanced as we remember that the French ju-
dcial system is set in action on very micro
scopic matters, and that their police system
has reached an effectiveness in the discovery
and punishment of crime of which ours offers
but very feeble resemblance. 1t is remarka-
Bile, too, that while crime thus prevails amongst
us out of all European proportion the dispro-
portion of relapses is equally against us. In
England, where the materials for judgment are
not assisted by passports, and a complicated
system of police espionage, we yet have evil
dence that these relapses cannot be less than
at the rate of about GO per cent. In France
they are found, on almost iniallible data, to
amount to less than one-half-25 per cent

SEMMEs AND MAFFIT OF THE "290."-Bi-
ographers have sometimes mistaken the no.
torious captain of the Alabama for a less cell
ebrated namesake. The pirate is not Alexan-
der, but Rafael Semmes, who was never put
upon the retired list for going at '2.40, or
2.90" pace, Vanity Fair to the contrary not
withstanding. The Semmes is a Baltimorian,
or a native of Maryland at least. He was the
iifty-eighth commander in the U. S. Navy
when he resigned. Captain Radlord now
commander of the Brooklyn Navy Yard, had
beer a year in the service before him. Cap
Dahlgren, chief of the Ordnance Bureau, was
a MILDLY with him. Captain Rowan, appoint
ed TO command our great harbor battery;-
Captain Boggs, of the Varuna Commodore
Goldsborough, of the Minnesota; Captain
Drayton, of the Passaic, and other distin-
guished men were his schoomates. They all
know him WELL and fear that he will not be
caught with chaff He was a midshipman on
board the old Lexington, and commanded the
brig Somers, when she made her famous "cap-
SIZE" The energy and pluck of Semmes al
ways commanded respect. While he was in
spector of the Lighthouse Board, a position
he filed before the war, those who opposed
him once never did twice. He can beat any
steamer in the navy, if his vessel has the speed
that report says.
Apprehensions are felt that he may obtain
some of our new signal books, which would
enable him to coal beside one of our naval
vessels in a foreign port, if none of our Off
GERS there knew him. In this city a f1rst-class
private house is occupied by near female rel
alive of the dashing pirate, and it is said that
one of his children, who is now being educat-
ed in Baltimore had her fathers daguerreo-
type copied in Broadway, that all his friends
might have souvenirs of him. There are three
or four members of his family in Brooklyn, all
in respectable positions.
HIS RIGHT HAND MAN.
Semmes is not a whit greater daredevil
than John n. Maffit, who is reported to be his
second in command. Maffit is an Irishman
whose father was pious clergyman, which
John, on more than one occasion, declared to
be 1.-The meanest profession ander the sum-" In
1882 he was admitted to the navy, and, singr-
larly enough, was classmate with Mr.. Rocken-
dorf, whom he has just outwitted. He was
the last commander of the steam gun-boat
Crusader, one of Cromwell's vessels, bought
by our navy. His appointment was credited
to Georgia, which he called the "native state
of his naturalization On board the little
brig Dolphin he captured the brig Echo, with
the cargo of negroes which was subsequently,
sent to Africa in the Niagara He is person
ally very brave, even to rashness, and is a We.
ry able seaman.-l n. Y. World.

SToNEwALL JACKsoN.-The following an
ecdote is taken from the Richmond correspon-
dence Of the Charleston Mercury:
"Here are two anecdotes about Jackson. A
Yankee captain captured in the battles beyond
Richmond, was brought to some brigadiers
headquarters. Being fatigued, he laid down
under tree to rest. Pretty soon Gen. Lee
and staff rode up. The Yankee asked who he
was, and when told, praised his soldierly ap-
pearance in extravagant terms. Not long az
ter, jackson and his staff rode up. When told
that that was Jackson, the Yankee bounced
to his feet in great excitement, showing that
he was much more anxious to see old Stone
wall than Lee. He gazed at him a long time.
And that's Stonewall Jacksonr Yes
'Waal, l swan, he aint much for looks And
with that he laid down and went to sleep.
During the same battles stSaggler, who
had built field fire in the old and was enjoy
ing ii all to himself, observed what he took to
be squad of cavalry. The man in front SEEM
ed to be reeling in his saddle. The straggler
ran ont to him and said, Look here, old fellow,
you are mighty happy. Where did you get
your liquor from? Give me some; I'm as dry
as powder horn Imagine his feelings when
he found it was Jackson-the most ungrace-
ful rider in the army, und who naturally sways
from side to side as if he were three sheets in
the wind"
