given the prominence it deserved nor have
the general officers who participated in it ever
been rewarded according to their merit. Here,
like everywhere else, jealousies and bicker-
ings, with political influence, have furnished
the fame of worthy ones, and it will be some
time before all concerned in this struggle Will
have received their just dues
This hard-contested battle, being fought on
the then Western frontier, and being almost
the precursor of other Union victories, was
therefore overshadowed by following successes,
but in its bearings it had as far-reachlng effect
as Gettysburg or any so-called decisive battles.
1t not only settled or rather scattered, the rebs
in the Southwest for some time to come, but
released the greater part of our army to go to
Grant and other places, and also revived the
dropping spirits of the North.
just imagine Price and Van Dorm successful,
advancing and increasing on their way TO st.
Louis. Halleck would have recalled Grant
and every man he could have secured to make
st. Louis safe. Would Shiloh have been fought
What would Albert Sidney Johnston have done
with Buell.? The loss of Pea Ridge would have
even affected the Army of the Potomac, far

ignored, Army of the Southwest, afterward
called the Army of the Frontier, did its full

Yonr Frlend CommItted Suicide.

You never suspected it, none of his friends
dreamed of it, he did not know of it himself,
but it is exactly what he did, nevertheless Do
you remember his sallow complexion? Do you
recolect how he used to complain of headaches
and constipation? "I'm getting quite bilious"
he said to you one day, but guess it'll pass
Off haven't done anything for it, because 1
don't believe in DOSING" Soon after that you
heard of his death. 1t was very sudden, and
everyone was greatly surprised. If he had
taken DR.. Pierces Pleasant Purgative Pellets
he would be alive and well to-day. Don't fol-
low his example. The Pellets" are easy to
take, mild in their action, and always sure.

ment.
Alex. Hunter, Hallsville Mo-, is very much
pleased at the result of the recent election.
Sol B. Smith, Co. E, 37th ILL.,, Mendoza, H.,
thinks that Gen. Palmer made great mistake
in withdrawing from the Grand Army.
s. E. Mckenzie, 9TH Ind battery, Springfield,
Iowa, says that at the battle Of Stone River his
battery had six mighty good guns, which were
handled by men who knew how to use them.
The night before the battle they camped in the
edge of the woods on the right of the pike, and
about daylight next morning were ordered for
ward The battery had hardly started before
Comrade Mckenzie was struck by bullet and
compelled to go to the rear.
G. w. Grindle, Phillips, Wis, feels quite
elated over Harrison's election to the Presi-
| dency. He says that four years ago many COM
rades in his section were Indifferent as to whom
should be elected but nearly four years of veto
reign was too much for them, and they voted
/ solidly for Comrade Harrison.
| l.. w. Story, Beverly, Mass. enlisted Oct. 5,
| 1861, in the 23d Mass for three years The
/ first battle his regiment participated in was
that of Roanoke Island, aud from that time to
the close of its service it saw some very hard
! fighting.

NJ. II. MeGrath, Captain, 5Oth n Y. Eng,
having read the account of the laying of the
pontoOns in front of Fredericksburg, Va, writ
ten by F. 3. Williams, 50th n. Y. Eng, desires
to corroborate his statement and to say that
the 18th n. Y. Eng never saw the bridge for
they were at the lower bridge during the entire
engagement. He was in command at the time,
Capt. Mcdonald having been wounded at the
first fire, and he, as First Lieutenant succeeding
him. This was the first time the writer was
under fire, aud he received a Captains CON-
mission for his conduct on that occasion, and
knows whereof he speaks.
ID. B. Wolf Captain, Co. K, Sd w. Va. Cav.
Grenola Kan, thinks Congress should pass
law abolishing about half of the Pension Office
clerks, as they appear to obstruCt rather than
forward claims before that Office. These claims
he thinks, have to pass through too many
hands, and the money paid the clerks fol
salaries could be given to the veterans.
ii. c. Griffith, Co. I, Ind. Morton Rifles
Alma, Neb, thinks the soldiers gained glOri
Gus victory, and is glad that President Cleve
land and Mr.. Matson are elected to stay a
home during the next four years.
John NJ. Mclaughlin, Parnell, Mo-, enlisted
when young man in Co. B, 35th Mo, anC
served in that regiment for three years. When ht
was mustered out of service his health was gone
and he was physical wreck. He is very GLAD
to see that the comrades in New York and In
diana put such an emphatic veto on the tw,
great sOldier-haters, Cleveland and Mats0n.

Better than a Pension.

During the great war of the
Rebellion the U. S. Government
authorized Messrs. Brady and
Gardner (the leading photogra-
pliers of Washington to send
artists with the Union Armies to
photograph all Of the interesting
and wonderful scenes lat the
front" These artists were pro
vided with the best quality Of
cameras and remained with the
armies in the field through the
entire war. The result Of their
four years labor was over six
thousand actual photographs Of
war scenes.
The battlefelds, batteries, regi-
ments, forts, picket-posts, Rebel
prisoners, hospitals, the wound
ed, the dead on the battlefelds
Just as they fell, burial details,
burying the dead, and hundredsof
other scenes once so familiar to US.
The funny camp scenes were
also taken: cooking beans the
guard house; riding the wooden
horse. tossing up a darkev In a
blanket; in short, everything Of
interest was photographed, and
now, after twenty-five years has
passed away, these scenes are
brought out as accurate as a re-
Election in mirror, exactly as
they really looked, faithfully
preserved by the grand art Of
photography. These genuine
original war scenes are now
owned by Comrades Taylor &
Huntington, No. 2 State Street,
Hartford, Conn, who are giving
public exhibitions IN Conn. or
these real war views, and they
are now prepared to appoint
agents in other States to give
these exhibitions. Any comrade
or other reliable person who
would like to undertake this
business is invited to call and
see the war views on exhibition,
or write to the above address,
enclosing stamps for descriptive
circulars and terms. It's a light,
pleasant, and profitable business,
and pays better than a pension.

Random Shots.

w. H. Golf, Charleston, H., belonged to the
Third Brigade of Gen. Stonewall Jackson's Di-
vision, and sends an interesting account of the
killing of the rebel General in which he shows
conclusively that he was shot by his own men.
The writer thinks that Gen. Jackson rode in
front of his men to see whether they would
obey his orders, as he had instructed them to
fire as soon as they saw anyone approaching.
Thomas Mccoy Cos. and f, I'd Ill. Cav,
Piasa, H., would be glad to see something in
the paper from his old comrades. He thinks
the record of his regiment will compare favor
ably with that of any other in the service.
N T. StOner, Mount Moriah Mo-, lays claim
to being one of the youngest soldiers. He was
born Feb. %, l94S, and enlisted Aug. "a, 1861,
as private in Co. ], 23d Mo-, and served three
wears five months and five days. He was mus
tered out at Savannah, Ga. Dec. 20, 1864. He
thinks there were not many younger soldiers
than he who carried muskets. He does not
wish to compete against drummer-boys, as he
acknowledges many younger than he was.
Richard w. Wright, Co. B, 2Ist ILL.,, (resi-
dence not given,) would like to have some
comrade of the 21st III. write history of his
regiment, and especially of its charge at Stone
River Dec 80, 1862. He thinks that that
charge would compare favorably with the
actions of other regiments who captured flags,
forts, etc. of which the comrades are so fond OF
Dragging. They lost something mort 275
men in about one hour. Co. A lost IL, ~ 3 3,
and Co. % by one volley from the rebel bat
terry. He thinks Gen. Carlin ought to write an
account of the charge, as he ordered it.
James Ferguson, Co. III, 18th III. Cav, Arroyo,
Cal, says that during the recent election the
Union soldiers gained greater victory than
they have before since the war.
D. B. Widbee, Calhoun, Mo-, was among the
unfortunates who were caught at Rogersville
East Tennessee, Oct /, 1862. His entire regi-
ment was captured and taken to Belle ISLE
where they remained during the Winter OF

some surprise that he was not in the
least like the published portraits that
are to be seen in every part of Paris.
He has nothing of the dapper look of

hair is not dark and nicely combed, as
you see it in the pictures in little. !"
but it is iron gray, and it stands
cropped and erect His beard, too.
Is tawny and slightly mixed with gray.
In physique he is middle height, well
filled. and neither stout nor slender.
He has stronger face and more in
tellectual head than the popular por-
traits credit him withal. and the lines
in his face are distinctly marked
there is quite adeep line running across
his forehead. His eyes are keen and
gray. His coat was semi-military in
cut. but not in color, for. like his
trousers, it was q kind of yellow.
