To the Women of the Confederate States,

Another and most urgent appeal is made TO you

6ces greater than Spartan mothers endured which
You have already made in holy cause, leave no
ROOM 70 fear that this appeal will be in vain.
The General Order of glorious leader, aud the
Address Of the President, lately prOmulged, have

terms the imperative necessity of an Immediate and
large increase Of the armies in the field if to
be free One of these papers states the fact that
turn to the army Of all officers soldiers absent
thersrom, aud able TO bear arms, would make that

course more than equal the task of driving them
from our sod. In Heavens name, most reverently We

when such glorious result this would surely fol-
lov their return to duty? The truth is, and let the
truth be told startling though it be, that the Amy
would be doubled in its numbers by the return OF he
absentees able TO do duty in the field. Thh Is serious
fact but fact it is. as reliably informed, not
