Military Rank.

BY a glance at the shoulder straps worn by
army officers, their ranks, and the branch Of
the service to which they are attached, may
be at once named, if you know how, and this
is the way:
The shoulder straps Of Major General
bear two silver embroidered stars, one on each
end Of the strap. A Brigadier General has
one silver star only. A Colonel has silver
embroidered spread eagle; a Lieutenant
Colonel has two silver embroidered leaves.
one at each end of the strap; Major, two
gold embroidered leaves similarly placed; a
Captain has two gold bars at each end of the
strap; First Lieutenant has one gold bar at
each end and Second Lieutenant no bars
at ALL
The cloth ofthe strap, by its color, distin-
cuisines the arm Of the service For General
and Staff officers it is dark blue; fer Artillery.
scarlet; for Infantry, sky blue for Rifemes,
green; and for Cavalry, orange color.
Non.commissioned officers are indicated bv
"chevrohs or stripes on the coat sleeve in
the form of the letter " Corporals wear two
stripes; Sergeants, three. Orderly Sergeants
have = lozenge or diamond shaped figure
within the angle Of the chevrons. Sergeant

They MEAN REvoLUrIoN.-The SPRING
field Qll.) correspondent of the Chicago Tri-
6une says:
"You may set it down that the leading
spirits among the Democrats are for revolu.
ton in the State rather than longer contin-
uance of the war. The proclamation is a
mere pretence. The Democrats have been
opposed to the war from the start. They
think the present the best opportunity for ar
resting it. man is not now afraid to say
he is K. &C. Your correspondent might
call every Democrat in the House Knight
of the Golden Circle and they would only
laugh at him."

~ T. T. Crittenden, of East Tennessee,
gives narrowing picture of his treatment at
the hands of the rebels. He and twenty-five
others were incarcerated in filthy dungeon,
where they were confined for several months.
and where they were subjected to every in.
dignity that misfortune could endure and
brutality INFECT. They were, for instance,
compelled, at the point of the bayonet, to
beat the dough which the negroes cooked for
their use; to police the ground enclosing the
prison; to clean the sinks; to dig and Clean
out the wells; to make and repair fences; to
carry food for others to eat; to scrub floors
Some Of them were the first citizens Of East
Tennesses. Their only crime consisted in re-
fusing to desert the old flag Can it be that
q rebellion maintained BY such hellish agen.
cies can succeed ?-EE.
This would be splendid opportunity for
the Courier to again become pathetic, II it
were not that the victims of these barbarities
were Union men instead Of rebels.

be far behind. The attempt to maintain

it is now believed, will not exceed 1000. In
view Of the first reported loss Of from 5000
to 10000, this last news is gratifying.
