THE year 1868 was marked by an in.
creased aud in some respects, remarkable
mortality throughout the country, in the
rural districts as well as in cities. There
appears to have been no general, or wide
spread epidemici but general increase Of
mortality from all causes. 10 some Sec
tiOus of New England and in other States,
there were severe epedomics of diptberia,
scarlatina, typhoid fever, and spotted fever,
aud during the present winter there is ex .
listing general epidemic of influenza,
commonly, but improperly, attributed to
taking cold" This has largely increased
the mortality of aged persons, and in some
places has proved fatal to many of the
middle aged.

ONE OF. our contemporaries directs Atteu :
ton to the fact that a confidential agent of
the rebel War Department, in an official
report, has confessed that he passed aud
repassed our lines and "Without hesitation
took the oath of allegiance, and each sue
ceeding day violated it without the slight.
est scruple or compuoction." The journal,
to which we refer, cites other cases in
which the rebel soldiers and officers have
broken their paroles without the slightest
hesitation. But what else can we expect
in rebellion, the leaders of which began
it by breaking the most solemn oaths ever
taken by men? Did not the men most
conspicuous in originating and guiding
the great conspiracy hold their places in
the Senate and in the Cabinet of the Uni
ted States while they were connecting
their Infamous schemes? Were they not
under the most sacred obligations to stand
by the constitution and the laws, while
they were maturing all their plansto violste
that constitution and those laws, and to
drag the whole south into the war; Dis
regard of an oath is in harmony with the
very principle in which the rebellion was
conceived. We have long ago learned
that the talk about chiyalric love of honor
and of truth in Tue southern leaders and in
too many of their followers is utter non.
sense. Lying, stealing, treason, such is
the catalogue of their crimes.

WONDER is often expressed that the loss
of life in large battles is so small. The
condition of the $4,000 musksts captured
at Gettysburg may explain partly OF
these, "a 200 were found to be loaded,
$4,000 containing two loads, and 5000
from three to ten loads each. In numer-
GUS instances half a dozen balls were
driven in on single charge of powder. In
some cases the former possessOr had re-
versed the usual order, placing the ball at
the bottom OF the barrel and the powder
on top. Not unfrequentIy several paper
cartridges were packed above each other
without being torn or broken. One
Springfield musket contained % loads
