The Horrible Tale OF the southern

The Horrible Tale az che Southern
faetl HospitRIs. 4
One gets an appalling idea of the sacri-
fees that have already been made to the
Moloeh of rebellion, by an official return Of
the Surgeon General at Richmond, who
states that upsto the present time 100 900
sick and wounded soldiers have been re,
ceived in the hospitals of that city Note
that this is but one item, for other cities
have received pr1portionate numbers, and
also that this return excludes those that
have been killed on the battlefield. From
these examples one may form conception
of theienornIous havoc that the war has
made 10 the Southern popaIatiou. II must
BIS remembered that these losses are more
paIpabiy felt there than nmoug our teeming
masses. In the semi feudal consultation Of
Southern society, each man of5thouSsuds..
of these was the centre of little sociAI'

terrible character, and few prisoners will
be taken. On the part Of the abolition
