The National tribune., 1882-12-14

TIE New York Herald advocates the adop-
tion of Senator Beck's plan of posting the
names of pensioners in a conspicuous place
at every post-of1ice, and advertising them in
the newspapers, and expresses the opinion
that 81 the whole community would become
one vast detective agency for the ferreting
out of fraudulent pensioners" We haven't
q doubt of til And nice way it would
be of rewarding our veterans for the SER
vices they rendered to the country in its
hour of peril let loose a pack of
detectives upon them, just as that mon
ster Wirz let loose his bloodhounds on the
trail of escaped prisoners from Anderson
Vile! Just fancy the feelings of the victims
old soldiers compelled to lay bare them
scars and disfgurements to allay the sus-
picions of prurient natures like Senator
Beck's! Is it not enough to be cruelty and
hopelessly MANNED in defense of the Union
without being forced to make public exAa-
bition of ones wounds? Is it not enough
to have complied with all the requirements
of the law touching the evidence necessary
to establish pension claim and satisfied
the Governments own medical and surgical
examiners of the existence of the disability,
without being put on trial before the public
at large? Shame on the man who would
subject the saviOrs of the Republic to such
cruel, willful, and irreparable injustice. He
should be held up to the scorn of his fellow
men and his name go down to posterity
linked with the infamy of monster Wirz Of
Andersonville.

The Gettysburg Camnnicn.

The evacuation of Wischester, Virginia,
by General NIilroy has been the source of so
much adverse criticism that we have
thought best to give more of the details
than might at first glance be deemed neces-
sary.
The advance of General Ewell was so
totally unlocked for that both General Mil
roy and General Elliott were inclined to
doubt the report of scouts on the Front
Royal road that heavy infantry force was
approaching.
Thatan entire corps could be detached from
the Army of Northern Virginia without the
knowledge of General Hooker seemed SO
preposterous that both generals were in
cined to the belief that the column reported

FAN In!

For the last two months subscribers to
The NATIONAL TRIBUNE have been com
ing in by regiments-at the rate of about
thousand per week-and the number re-
corded the past week !, ,549-leads us
to hope that they will soon be coming in by
brigades! If we may Judge by the general
tone of their letters, they have "enIisted for
the war;" and under the leadership of THE
TRIBUNE propose to fight it out on the line
of soldiers rights if it takes the rest of their
lives. 1t stirs the blood, even if it does
sometimes bring the tears, to read their ap-
peaIs to THE TRIBUNE to continue the
struggle for the recognition of their claims
by Congress, and it warns the heart to know
that they repOse such absolute confidence in
the prowess Of their champion. If there was
ever cause worth fighting for, it is theirs,
and they may be sure that The TRIBUNE
will never strike its colors.
We have said that the number of new sub
scribers received during the past week leads
us to hope that they will soon be coming in
by brigades. We should say by divisions"
instead of brigades but for the fact that so
few, comparatively, Of our subscribers seem
to be engaged in the work of recruiting.
The pleasure which it gives us to acknowl-
edge the receipt of club of fifteen, twenty,
or thirty subscribers is always tempered by
the knowledge that for the getter-up of
every such club there are perhaps ten sub
scribers able to do quite as much for THE
TRIBUNE who have done nothing at all. We
feel sure that their apparent Indifference is
not due to any actual lack of interest in the
cause, but rather, perhaps, to the belief that
their services are not needed. If that is the
case we trust they will no longer hold back
for The TRIBUNE has need of the aid of all
its subscribers, young or old, rich or poor.
We want to be able to say, at the head of lis
editorial columns, that TIE TRIBUNE has
one hundred thousand subscribers, and we
want to be able to exercise in behalf of the
interests of our ex-soldiers the irresistible
influence which that circulation will give.
The mission Of The TRIBUNE was never so
well-defned as it is to-day; the need Of its
services was never so pressing. What it has
so far been able to accomplish for our ex-
soldiers is as nothing compared with what
it is yet possible to accomplish with the

cient to contain them all. What we en-
deavor to do is to select from this mass of
correspondence what we think will have
the greatest interest for our readers gen.
orally, but it frequently happens that for
want of room we are compelled to put
aside letters that are quite as worthy of
publication as those which actually appear.
Our correspondents may be sure that
their letters are all carefully read and
considered, and that the suggestions which
they contain are properly appreciated, but
they should all try to bear in mind the fact
that while the truth can sometimes be
stretched las Senator Beck has lately shown

AS THE YEAR draws to close, the COM
petition for the prizes offered by THE
TRIBUNE for the ten largest clubs of new
subscribers grows sharper and sharper, and
although but two weeks still remain for
canvassing, it is impossible as yet to tell
who will be victors in the contest. A great
deal can be done in two weeks by such
earnest workers as those engaged in this
contest, and as we shall credit the contest
ants with every club that is mailed to Us
prior to January 1st, every days work up
to that time will count in their favor In
any event, there is likely to be very little
margin between the scores of victors and
vanquished, and none of our canvassers,
therefore, can afford to relax their efforts
We hope to be able to announce the result
of the competition and award the prizes by
the middle of January.

The amount realized from the advance
sale of tickets for the Nilsson concerts at
San Francisco was $4,000. The New York
engagement Of Mrs. Langtry yielded the
management 100000, and at single Patti
matinee recently the receipts were $4,000.
This does not look as if the internal revenue
taxes were a serious burden upon the coun-
try, or that the monopolists, who really pay
them, were no longer able to pay for the
luxuries of life
The National tribune., 1882-12-14

IF Congress must reduce the taxes, let it
make beginning by reducing the postage
on letters from three to two cents. Letter
postage is direct tax upon the people, and
the people would be directly benefited by
its reduction. President Arthur recommends
1t in his message, and as the receipts of the
Post Office Department are likely to exceed
the expenditures by at least five millions of
dollars during the present fiscal year, this is
one of the reductions that can be made with
out involving the Government in financial
embarrassment.

GENERAL HORACE CAPRON completes in
this number of THE TRIBUNE his thrilling
description of one of the most hair-breadth
escapes from capture recorded in history.
The account of the Stoneman raid to the
rear of Atlanta has never before been writ
ten. No report of it is on file in the War
Records, and even the General of the Army
who ordered the expedition obtained his
first knowledge Of the details of the raid
from the columns of THE TRIBUNE. The
cooperating expedition of General L. M.
McCook was almost equally unfortunate,
and full description of it will soon be
given. All that the army before Atlanta
knew of the result of this unfortunate raid
was that 4 cavalry corps, 10000 strong,
marched through Marietta eastward, and
that as an organized corps it never returned.
1t came in in detachments, depleted by the
loss of nearly one-third of its effective
strength. For weeks afterwards the half
starved officers and soldiers, with matted
hair and boards, and clothes in tatters,
came struggling into the lines, right glad to
escape captivity or death.
