were among the last guns heard by Lee at
Appomattox. 1t lost lat killed, 381 wound
ed, Is died in prison, and 131 of disease; ;

The 21st Ne. was nine months organize
ton, and fought at Port Hudson. 1t lost 81
killed and las by disease. The 22d, 23d
gath, 25th, Goth, 9th and oath were also
nine months regiments, and lost severely
by battle and disease, in the Louisiana low
lands. At the conclusion of their term of
service most of their members re-enlisted in
other organizations.
The 10Th Me. was organized in the begin
ming of 1864, mainly of veterans. Within
the next few months it wrote upon its ban
ners, in letters of glory, "Sabine Crossroads"
Pleasant Hill, ""Opequan," Fishers HILL"
"Cedar Creek" and Cane River Crossing"
1t lost AZ killed and 1876 by disease.
The 30th Me. was organized in the begin
ming of 1864 and most of its members had
seen service in other organizations. 1t went
to the Department of the Gulf and took
part in the disastrous Red River expedition,
where it did gallant fighting. 1t lost 81
killed and ESQ by disease.
The 31st Me- was organized in April, 1864
mainly Of veterans, and was hurried to the
front, to enter upon the Wilderness cam
paign, rs part Of the Ninth Corps. In
nine months from the time il had left Maine
with $50 men, it had lost 1s3 killed, AS
wounded, 81 had died in prison and 142 by
disease.
The 32d Me. was organized, principally of
veterans, May 6, 1864, and took prominent
part in the fighting at spoltsylvania, North
| Anna, Cold Harbor, Petersburg Weldon
Railroad, Poplar Spring Church and
Hatchers Run. 1t lost IS killed and III
by disease.
The seven batteries of light artillery which
Maine sent out were all good, and some of
them, as Halls, Bradbury's, Stevens's and
Dow's, made regulations which extended
through the army.
While Maine men were probably devoted
to coffee-boiling, they also had a wonderful
knack of making other things than coffee
boil wherever they went, and the rebels in
their neighborhood were generally in par
tieularly hot water.
Clearly, with such n showing as this. we
shall have to look somewhere else for the
soldiers who devoted most of their time to
boiling coffee.

THE real statesmen of few years ago did
not hesitate to pay thousands of millions of
dollars to the bondholders TO maintain the
National honor. Why should the men who
sit in Congress to-day palter about few
millions, when infinitely more sacred obi
cations are involved? Let them be real
statesmen, too, and meet the debts due the
soldiers with the same large-handed action
that their predecessors displayed in dealing
with the money-lenders The people will
approve this rs strongly as they did the
