"a OAls Geauiae History
OF that gigantic struggle, for its history is
not a warped and biased panegyric of some
particular man or men, who are given
credit FOR everything that succeeded. Il is
made up OF the testimony Of a multitude Of
witnesses, the plain and unvaruished sto-
ries OF the men in every rank and DECREE
who md the marching, digging and shoot
ing and carried forward the war through
al lis various phases b a glorious success.
The great value OF The National Tribune's
history is everywhere recognized, and its
files are carefully preserved in every large
library and historical collection in the
country-NOrth and South.
a fascinating story by Col. Thos. Knox,
the brilliant writer Of popular books, is
now running in the paper.
An entertaining historical romance, by
Frances Williams Fannie Williamsl, now
appearing, Is exciting great interest among
the young folks, with whom Miss Wilson
has always been a great favorite.
Back numbers containing these will be
furnished.
Very many distinguished men and wo.
men constantly contribute to its columns.
1t is favored in this way more than any
other Great Weekly in the country.

and so acccptably FOR the soldiers, will soon
begin another war story.
