At the instance of the ' War Department, Congress has recently ' authorized the erection of similar head | stones over the graves of the Union | soldiers who are buried in private and g village cemeteries.

All persons having any of the burial places of soldiers in private cemeteries whose graves are { not marked, are requested to comnuni- | cate the fact to the Q larterm lster Gen.
