COURAGE "nADE RAsY,u
Shortly atler the battle of Chickamausa a
rebel t'domine," not 4 Jomrini evidently,
wrote atrcatise on the soldieriy art Of "stand-
Ing up to the Fack, fodder or no fodder;" 10
other words, Of fighting without running,
designed for the edincation of Johnston'e
army. It is difficult to see why such a
treatise was needed, rs JohHston's strategy
consisted in running rkther than fighting,
but Of this perhaps the Rev. A. B. Long
street, Ii D. was not aware. We give q
sample Of his etyle Of argument, which is
not without Ingenuity: 8.

He furnishes an ingenious recipe for turn
ing cowardice into heroism by combining
