GREATER THAN WATERLo0.-Gen. Pres
ton, Of Kentucky, speaking Of the late war,
said: sThere were three battles of the war,
all of them greater than the battle of Water
loo-Shiloh, Stone River and Chickamauga.
Each of them was more stubbOrnly contest
ed, and the losses on each side considerably
greater than at Waterloo. Shiloh | regard
in many respects the greatest battle of the
world. Itwas practically the growing glory
of American valor. Here were two great
armies of raw troops who met in the shock
of battle and never Ainched. 1t was the
most stubbornly contested battle of modern
times. Once when Sir Garnet Wellesley,
the present commander of the English ar
my, asked me at dinner party at Montreal
if the South could not have held out longer,
/ replied 'As mere matter of physical en-
durance, yes but do you know, sir, that in
the four years of war through which we
passed, the South alone, with its few mil
lions of people lost more men in battle than
England did in all its wars from William the
Conqueror to Queen Victoria.' spoke with
some feeling and it ended in discussion as
to the reason why the South did not con-
tinue to fight"
