HARD FIoHrnRs.-Day after day comes the
story Of desperate combat and We have given
our readers now the account of eight days Of
persistent battle. 1t seems as if the world Of
peace would weary of the story of ali this be-
fore our magnificent army will weary Of the
fact of its sanguinary labor. In the face Of
all this every one mus. have made the re-
Election that we are, as a nation, the most despe-
rate fighters that the world ever saw. History
has no parallel OF all to the battles fought ia
series that this war presents Not one Of our
great fights hes been decided in one day;
but they have taken two, three, and now even
eight days. Waterloo decided the fate OF
Europe in eight hours.

something of u change These infamous DEVILS

their noses at Union families when they meet them

the high attitudes now covered wsth snow. Those
possessing little or no stock and who are wholly
dependent upon cereal products us their means OF
livelihood are, in too many instances, altogether
too much pre.occupied in mind with gloomy fore
