vein of pathos in his tone when he informed me
that he had been for twenty-three years in his
present grade as first lieutenant of artillery.
He stands at the head of his grade, however,
and will probably be rewarded with the next
captaincy which becomes vacant That is to
say, if no eX-Army officer is restored to the

his promotion. If our Navy officers who kick

the military station at the Golden Gate are in
every respect more pleasant. There are always
more or less close friendships to be broken by
such transfer. The very fact that the soldier
