NEBRASKA.

"Ninth Corps,n David City, Neb, writes us
as follows: l have to report the muster of A. B.
Fox Post, No. 172, at Louisville, Neb., on the
29th of October, by F. E. Rexford, District
Mastering Officer. There were seventeen char
ter members, and the future prospects are quite
pleasing.
An application was received, on the 1st inst,
from j. NJ Davis and nine other comrades of
Rulo, Richardson county, asking that Post
may be mustered at once. Recruiting is very
active all over the State. E. B. Taylor, Chief
Mastering Officer, reports several applications
for Posts. Quarterly reports are coming in
very slowly.
Comrade w. Erskine, Steele City, Neb.,
writes US that e. A. Rice Post, No. Il,
of that place, recently held Campfire, at
which it was the recipient of handsome
banner from the ladies of the city. The meet
ing was addressed by Comrades FL. T. Seovill
and Morgan Crane and Commander H. G. Tutt.
Cohrade J. F. Early, Wilber, Neb., writes us
that the Post at that place held rousing Camp
fire on the 9Th inst, after which eloquent
speeches were made by Comrades A. NJ Wolls,
J. Smith, and others, and an ample supper fur
nished.
Comrade Jesse Hoag, Sacramento, Neb.,
writes that Post No. 124, of that place, has a
membership which represents sixteen regi-
ments and seventeen States.

THE GRAND ARMY.


also like to mention others, like Comrade A. C.
Marsh, of Louisiana; Jesse Rhoads, of Carthage
Lyman Parcher and Ira K. Alderman, OF
Maryville; Colonels Van Meter and Emery, of
Lamar and give each his due, but space this
time will not permit. mention these COM
rades by name not for any purpose whatever,
except to engender that healthy rivalry be-
tween them which shall help to build up our
organization.
cannot help refrain from again going back
to Department officers, and saying that, added
to the fact that General Warmers personal
popularity has done SO much for u.s. this also
should be said That his worthy assistants,
Generals Sterrett and Chamberlain, Senior and
Junior Vice Department Commanders. have
ably supported him, and that Colonel John NJ.
Armstrong, Chief mastering Officer, of St
Joseph, has been their faithful ally. So much
for "poor old Missouri" In my next will give
you some points regarding our Kansas City
Posts.
W. II. Bail, Bethany, Mo-, writes US that a
Post has recently been organized there which
viii number, when mustered, forty members.

An Open Letter from Gen. Rosecrans.

To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:
You will remember that some time ago /
wrote, congratulating you that THE NATIONAL
TRIBUNE had undertaken to occupy pecu-
liar and important field in weekly newspaper
literature; that it no longer proposed to be a
vehicle of light chit-chat about the war. but to
furnish its readers substantial war history, Civ
ing TO the youth of the country in install
ments-what they would not be likely to be
able TO command or have time to read in a
Solid body-the actual truth about the war, and
illustrating it by the testimony of numerous
living witnesses to the facts and incidents
which form pleasing garniture to make it in
teresting to everybody.
A friend lately detailed to mo fearful on
slaught that had been made upon all "soldier
papers," as they are called in this city, and he
was.informed by me that at least THE TRIBUNE
was an entire exception to the complaint and
denuneiation made by the speaker, because it
had the very characteristics of usefulness upon
which l based my note of congratulation TO you.
! beg you TO let no shortsighted policy cause
you to lose sight of this character. You hare
entered the field as real educator of the peo-
pie. You viii meet the appreciation of every
soldier who reads your paper; you will meet
the appreciation of every citizen; you viii
crystalize into history around such chapters
as the ones giving the capture of Fort Donei-
son mass of testimony from living witnesses
which in after times viii be Invaluable to his
torians and to writer's generally.
Again SAY, perseyere in your plans. Remem-
Der, your readers have even moro leisure than
| yourself, and what they want to know is moi
the physical contest, which is the outcome, bui
the circumstances which led to the outcome
