The Late War.

The New York Commercial Advertiser,
in an article on the number of deaths
on both sides in the late war, says that,
though the losses in many'of the cam
paigns have been heavy, they yet fall
below those incurred in some of the Eu-
ropean wars. A report recently made
to the Imperial Academy of Medicine
by Chenu, Physician of the French
army, estimates the losses of that army
in the Crimean war as follows: Killed
on the field of battle or missing, 10, 240 I;
lost in the Semilante, 7O2; died of vari-
GUS diseases at Alma, 1854; died of cold,
apoplexy, &C., before .Sebastopol, 4,342 !;
died in the field and general hospitals,
72,247. Total, 95,815. Thus, Of 3O9, 284
men sent by France to the Crimea, about
one-third found a soldiers grave.
The siege and reduction Of Jerusalem
resulted, says JOsephus, in the loss of
100000 lives. 10000 Persians were
placed ho,s de combat at the battle of
Arbela, and 100000 Carthagenians in
the engagement at Palermo. 1900 in
fantry and 10000 cavalry persisted on
the fatal field of Issue. Spain lost
1900, 900 lives during the persecution of
the Arabians, and 800, 200 in expelling
the Jews. Frederick the Great inflicted
a loss of 40, 900 on the Austrians in the
conflicts of Leuthen and Leignitz.i The
battle of Jena, and the lesser engage
ments Immediately following, cost the
Prussian army over &c, 900 men. AT the
battle of Leipsic the French suffered
casualties to the number of 10000, and
the Swedes and their allies 10000 more.
So 900 French and Russian soldiers lay
dead and dying on the field after the
battle of Moskowa, and Napoleon again
lost Al 900 men at Waterloo, and the
Duke of Wellington $1,000 more. r..
The reader cannot fail to be struck
with the ravages of disease in the va
rious camps in the Crimea Seventy
four thousand French soldiers, or one
fourth of the whole number, perished
from disease in the Crimean war. Thir-
ty thousand Russian troops also died in
the Crimea during a few weeks, from
camp disease, and thirty-five per cent.
of the English troops were Frustrated
with sickness. OF the English army
of thirty thousand, under Wellington,
in 1889, six thousand were sick in the
hospitals. In 1922, the Portuguese army
of fou ty-four thousand had nine thou
sand on the sick list. The advertiser
adds that nearly one-half of our entire
forces of the Observation-Disclosures
per cent-were at one time unfit for du-
ty. v5tf .E.zz
No full tables have been published of
the sanitary condition of the armies
during the late four years struggle, but
reports show that the losses
from sickness bear no comparison with
those above. Of the entire Army of the
Potomac there were only five per cent.
on the sick list during the first months

age-he will do it. Go get your horses.
What will become OF. you, anyhow ?"
Abzerodt and Harold went down ninth
street together. Abzerodt said to Harold,
"We must not disturb Mr.. johnson. "
Harold laughed and wanted the key of
the room. 1t was refused by Abzerodt,
who expressed himself as fearful that
harm would be done Mr.. Johnson. Har-
old left to go to see Booth, and he went
to the Oyster Bay. Harold came after
him and said Booth wanted to see him.
Abzerodt did not return to the Kirk wood
House that night. Booth told Abzerodt
that Surratt was in the city. Abzerodt
did not see Booth after leaving him at
the Herndon House, and he roamed
about the streets nearly all night, and
first heard of the murder about 101
o'clock, while passing up the avenue.
The cavalry were rushing by at the time
in pursuit. He threw away his knife
that night, and parted with his pistol
next morning to friend in Georgetown.
Abzerodt had nothingto say at any of the
fOrmermeetings. He knew nothing about
the rope found with Spangler. He be-
lieves Spanglerinnocenta as far as heknew.
Booth, when applied to for money,
would remark that he had money in
New York and would get some. At one
time in the spring or late in the winter
Mrs. Slater, Mrs. Surratt, John Surratt,
and Major Barron, formerly of the
rebel army, left Washington together
They got horses from Towards. Mrs.
Surratt stopped at Surrattsville, the 9TH
ers went to the Potomac Major Barron
returned. He did not think Barron had
anything to do with the conspiracy, al
though he was formerly in the rebel ar
my. One of Booths plans to obtain an
entrance tothe Secretary of States house
was an invention which, if successful,
would have involved others in his foul
acts. He had made the acquaintance of
a woman of strong southern feelings,
living not far from the secretary house,
who was to make the acquaintance of a
servant, who was to be introduced to
Booth, and by this means he would learn
something of the location of the rooms,
&c. AS far as known, it failed. Booth
was we'll acquainted with Mudd, and
had had letters of Introduction to him.
Booth told Abzerodt, about two weeks
before the murder, that he had sent pro-
visions and liquor to DR.. Mudd's for the
supply of the party on their wayto Rich
mond with the President.
| Michael O'Laughlin has made no reg
| ular confession as far as is publicl,
known; but he has confessed to tn
original conspiracy. He denied an.
knowledge of the murder of the Presi
dent, or the attempt on Mr.. Stewards
life. There is no doubt that he knew
much of the whole affair. Although an
asbi was tried to be made out, there is
no doubt in the minds of those who

PROGRESS.
BY rMHLINE SHERMAN SMITH.


Steadily, steadily, step by step,
Up the venturous Builders go,
Carefully placing stone on stone
Thus the loftiest temples grow.
Patiently patiently, day by day,
The Artist tolls at his taskyalway;
Touching it here and tinting it there,
Giving it ever, with infinite care,
line more soft or hue more fare,
Till, little by little, the picture grows,
And at last the cold dull canvas CLOVIS
With life and beauty and forms of grace
That ever more in the world have place
Thus with the Poet--hour after hour
He listens to catch the fairy chimes
That ring in his SOUL then with magic power,
He weaves their melody into his rhymes;
Slowly, carefully, word by word,
Line by line and thought by thought,
He fashions the golden tissue Of Song
And thus are immortal anthems wrought.
Every wise observer knows
Every watchful gazer sees
Nothing grand or beautiful grows,
Save by gradual, slow degrees.
We who toll with purpose high
And fondiy the proud result await,
Murmur not, as the hours go by,
That the season is long, the harvest late;
Remember that brotherhood, strong and true,
Builders and Artists and Bards sublime
Who lived In the Past, and worked like you,
Worked and waited a weaIisome time.
Dark and cherries and long their night,
Yet they patiently toiled at the task begun,
Till, lol thro' the clouds broke that morning light
Which shines on the SOUL when Success is wonl
