Washington Correspondence of the Phil
adelphia Press.l
Some time ago it was charg-
ed, and afterwards demonstra-
ted, that the records of the
Buell. court martial were alb
stracted from the War Depart
ment. Within a few days it
has been discovered that all
the archieves in the War De-
padtment pertaining to the
secret history Of the late rebel-
lion have been stalled. When
this was done, or by whome, is
not known. The lare Secreta-
ry Stanton, during his admins
istration of the War Office,
filed a large number of private
letters and kilograms, the ex-
istence of which were known
to two or three persons besides
himself. They related to
courts martial, the conduct of
prominent officers of the army,
the intrigues of politicians and
military aspirations, the rascal
! ity of Government contractors,
and the ways and means used
to influence the President ot
the United States in overrul>
ing the decisions of the Secre>
tary of War in these cases.
A gentleman whose position
made him familiar with these
documents, says many men
who were connected with
the army, and who have since
figured in public life, will re-
tain their character more se~
curely with those records out
of scrutiny. 1t is known that
they were all in the War Office
when Stanton retired. He had
them Systematically briefed
and slowed away in a safe
place, and had he lived and
remained in public life they
would probably have fig
ured largely in preventing the
appointment of men to Office
who have since shown that they
were no better fit for the civil
service than they were for po'
sitions Of trust and high com.
mand in the army. These pri
vate archives covered a period
of time from the first battle o.
Bull Run down to the surren,
der of Lees army. They EN-
braced courtS>martial Will
their findings, some of then
} sentencing the offenders to bt
shot, records of which the peo
pie were ignorant. 1t is sale
that a gentleman connected
with the War Department du'
ring the rebellion, through
whose hands all these matter
} passed, took copies ofthem, AM
will use them in writing tn,
) secret history of the war.

The Worlds Progress.
From the Kansas City Times

loohS pack over the past, and
observes the slow progress
that new ideas make in the
civilization of the world-the
hard battles that intelligence
has to make with ignorance
--thecontest continued through
centuries, and the issue appar-
emily as doubtful as when the
fight began-is probably justi-
fled in feeling sceptical, Of the
ultimate perfectibility of his
kind. For eighteen centuries
the Christian religion has been
pushing its way slowly against
the many forms Of materialism
that abound i'm the world, fire.
quently calling upon the sword
to assist it in the contest, and
comparing the pure morality
that forms its basis with the
refined epicureanism of the
East and the unrefined barbar-
ity OF the West, and yet not
more than oue-third ofthe hui
man race have ever heard the
sublime and tragic stoty of the
life and death of the Son Of
God.
In the struggle of the night
against the wrong-of truth
againts falsehood-of inteili-
gence against ignorance;ofligh
against darkness, the saddest
fact is, that the powers of truth
and the right have been most
frequently divided against them
selves; and by division have
really aided the success of the
common enemy. The history
of Christian Europe for nearly
two thousand years has been a
history of continual warfare
and bloodshed-a gloomy re-
cord of individual prosecutions,
of desolated States, ruined pros
yinces. sacked cities, and
decimated people, all done in
the name of religion, and in
accordance with the Injunction
to love one another. Here
and there has appeared, like a
bright oasis in the general
waste, some discovery in
science, some advancement in
/ art, that relieved for a moment
the crimson page of the chron-
Iicle-but quickly the civilized.
Christian world returned to IFS
business of indiscrimipate
slaughter.
A bitter mockery to-day does
, the Christian world present to
the very thought or philanthro,
py or justice between man and
man. The nations of Europe
stand arrayed against eacll
other, armed for strife, taught
to hate each other, and to long
for the signal for the work o.
mutual destruction to begin
In South America aud Mexico
warfare has become chronic
and habitual among the peo
ple-no man expects to dit
quietly in his bed-plunder il

ployment. In what depart

Landing a Mississippi Steamboat.
The following is an extract
from a Denver letter of the
Danbury News man to his pa>
per: "The river is much
broader at this point than I ex-
pected to see it, but we can not
always have our own way in
this world. The channel is
about three feet deep opposite
this place; / don't know the
exact width of the river, but
there is no doubt that the
water is as thick as it is broad.
The traveller should turn it
over with his foot and so look
at both sides OF it All was
busted at the dock when | got
there. The boat was taking on
its freight, and about thirty
lively colered roustabouts, and
one very excited and awfully
profane white man was doing
the business. That white man
was study. He. was the
mate of the vessel, and what
! he didn't know about rhetoric
could be held on the point of a
knife blade by a nervous man
The thirty negroes had all they
could we'll attend to to keek uI
with the new oaths, and roll OF
the casks. Without any cessa,
ton they bobbed form the boat
to the shore. and from the
shore back to the boat, and al
the while the Mississippi elo
cutionist danced around and
swore. When / got on the
boat I sat down on my bag
gage and watched that man.
Being a resident of Danbur
~, l thought I knew some
thing of wickedness, but l wa!
mistaken. The negroes were
uniformly dressed in pants
shirt and hat. Some of tht
hats were ornamented will
different colored ribbons; other
again contained but a simpl,
brass plate, the trade mark of
retired fruit can. Beauty una
| dorned is adorned the most
They were driven like sheep
! first to the shore, then back I,
l the boat. The least hesitation
: the slightest plisstep, was no
ticed by the orator ant
promptly incorporated into hi
discourse. He couldn't hav
been more familiar were the,
his own fathers, which is no
likely they were.
