propriated 800 600. 900. and now from the public
press of the country and. he was sorry TO say,
from the Executive branch of the Government,
the idea has gone forth that Congress has not pro-
vided the means to pay the army, and has not
done its duty. There never was an hour when
the Government did not have full authority from
Congress to provide the mems 10 pay the army.
He, Wilson, did not choose to take the response
bility for the non-paym ent of the soldiers, and
disowned it for the Senate and House.
We were DBL ged last summer and autumn to
raise a large body OF troops, and agreed 20 pay
| SOS bounty; and exr editons were sent away and
had to be paid Cor in advance This rule
quired that the soldiers should be paid every two
months, and Government professed to be pro-
viding the means to pay the army; yet the pay
ments for September and October were not made.
He supposed the large drafts on the Treasuryhad
exhausted the funds The Secretary had sent
no request for additional means. but had sent a
great financial scheme. which it would take
months TO carry into execution. But Congress,
without waiting for any Official request, promptly
passed an act for the payment of the soldiers.
The trouble hal arisen mainly from the pecu
liar circumstances Of the case After the nd
journment of Congress the President found il
necessary to call out 300 900 new troops giving
large sums in bounty, and large expeditions were
sent to a distance, and these men had to be paid
The trouble seemed to he that those were not
paid first who hid waited the longest.

Extract from Letter on the Battle-Field.J


This battle (Antietam) has been the most san
culinary of the war, and the only one fought with
visible design and upon military principles The
arrangement of our corps-the overlooking posi-
ton of the commanding General-the sending
into action the right and left divisons-the
closing up of the center--and finally success,
excites bewildering admiration, and carries the
mind to the great fields of Anstertz and Wag-
ram, fought by Napoleon. OF all this have
spoken. The heart history of such conflict
purchased by the lives and blood of twenty thou
sand men, must be found in the hospitals. War
has its glories but it has its thousand demons
in these human fortunes, that make the eye-bals
ache. the heart bleed. the lips palsy, and the
brain reel The sight is at first positively unen
durable The life blood of some is still trickling
away in silent calmness, while the discovered
limbs aud maniac brain OF others give rise to
sounds God grant may not again witness.
But. We mothers who here seek son, or wives
husband or sisters brother. sons father,
know and be consoled that even here the hand
OF mercy is watchful and better care is bestowed
possible. 1t was in the hospital where rested the
gallant Hooker that l learned the history of those
mythical words, so often and so little under

the suffenngs and saving the lives of our soldiers
is a national blessing | Witnessed some aston

1t is well known the effect Of burnt gunpow
der and excitement is thirst, which, added to the
loss of blood in the wounded, creates the neces.
sty of a reviving stimulant. In this particular
hospital the physicians allowed their patients to
drink Plantation Bitters, otherwise called
S. T.-ls6O--X, and although the wounded are

reference TO what Committee was the appropriate
one to send the bill of Mr.. lnders. designed TO
prevent the flooding of the State with negroes,
some of the members were disposed to be funny.
Mr. Berry thought it ought to go to the Agricul

mittee to report upon the wool crop. Mr. March
thought it would be very difficult to find out
where the negro ended and the white man began.
Different States had different laws defining the
amount of black blood that made a man niger.
