The Central Christian Adcocate has the
following on this subject -
The reports and presentations on the side Of
the rebels have been, from the first, a steady
course Of deliberate lying, both in regard to
the United States and their own concerns,
with the manifest design to delude the masses
Of the South and by this course of deliberate
tasehood maintain their cause. Having VIC
lated truth and right by deliberately breaking
their solemn obligation Of loyalty, truth had
no respect for them after that and by their
immoral act Of treason, right was tramplcd
IN the dust. We have overlooked this gen
orally in our news department, ex cept an oc-
caslonal reference to it. We will now give
some instances Of it in reference to Lee in
Pennsylvania, and Pemberton at Vicksburg.
In reference to the war in Pennsylvania we
note the following palpable falsehoods from
the South
The Richmond Despatch saws we are as
we'll aware that Gen. Lee, after he has met
the enemy in pitched battle, has inflicted
terrible defeat upon them, as we are that we

Thus their defeats both on the Potomac and

Ny Dear Sir: T"ougl my ep S.olIry c0nven-
fences are not of tue fret order, viii tell
you something OF my experiences at Getty. burg,
vi ere | happened to arrive in advance of the rest
ia Commission.
! came up with the Fifth Corps on the morning
OF the 3D.. As we advanced We saw nothing that
told Of battle except nov and then, at long inter-
vais, dash Of smoke ircm tie tights held by
Howard. As We drew learer however, the hos
pitfalls told the story Of what had been and what
was TO come. Our forces proceeded right up 10
line Of battle, and speedily every hill was capped
with smoke, the most terrific cannonadng on
right on lett and front-the whizzng and burst
ing OF shells and the clatter OF musketry. Then
came the wounded they were lying under every
tree, the woods seemed full Of them, they issued
from every path and we're scattered in groups
through the fields and along the road-sdes. They
were wandering around searching for their re-
spectlye hospitals. 1t was a very small portion
who could be accommodated in ambuances.
to them after washing their wounds Poor fell.
lows after reaching their hoSpitsls many Of them
were little better OIL The houses and barns
would hold bat a handful. At one hospital
found hundreds lying on t5elr backs in the open
hled-the sun pouring down into their faces,
Their bleeding and neglected wounds were not so
tormenting as this. They entreated with all
their powers as the last request Of dying men, to
have some plan devised to screen them from the
heat. Every one thought it useless, for there was
no spare tents at hand nor blankets enough To
wrap about them. In this e&iSency hardly knew
which way to turn, but | soon found myself
driving stakes with a rock and twisting every
spare corner Of their bedding over them. My
success started others and soon had the pleasure
of seeing the whole hospital in the shade.
But toward evening We saw a shower coming
up and here was a new labor. We did the best
we could, but few escaped the water that night.
This is the way spent my time at Gettysburg
going round the hospitals, reading in the faces Of
the men tn If wants and trying TO relieve them,
speaking words Of comfort and religious consola-
ton, and gathering their dying messages to their
friends at home. After all, my dear sir, our la
bOrs at such times are of such d nature that we
can give but a faint idea of them on paper There
thouse nd little nAmeless acts which the world
canno; know,nor wejourseves recall that are none
the less important IN their issues. The grateful
soldier notes them, one by one, and thanks God
for the Christian Commission.
cannot close without telling you the pleasure
it gave me, as | walked over the battle field
among the dead to find lying by their sides, and
many already open, books Of the Christian Com
mission distribution.
