The Retention of Soldiers Letters.

By reference to a correspondence in another col
umn it will be seen that the Commissioner of Pen
sons declines giving up to relatives and friends let
ters which have been written by soldiers in the
ed-that such letters will be retained in the cuso-
dy of the Office The labor connected with the task
of separating those pertaining to the soldierss do
nestle relations from those belonging to his military
career is the trouble in the way But we hope
these letters will be preserved and ultimately dev
cred to the dear ones at home, as cherished memen-
toes of patriotic fathers, husbands and sons, who
gave up their lives that our country should not per-
ish. 1t has been privilege oftimes to peruse
many of these letters, and in what pathos, what
beauty are many of them clothed. Oft you will

Because it is matter of great interest to large
bodies of claimants in all parts of the country,
republish the information contained below, which
was in our August number. We urge upon all
claimants to delay presenting their applications
