Camp Of Confederate Veterans at Ken
mond to arouse public interest in that
city sufficiently In the matter TO take
steps to preserve the earthworks about
that city. IT is TO be hoped that they VIII
succeed. The defence Of Richmond, every
thing considered Is the most brilliant IN
history. Protected mainly by earthworKS
and line Of battle that was so thin that
each man averaged a mile apart. the
wonder of the protection Of the capital
Of the Southern Confederacy will be bet
ter realized in coming generations than
in the present one.
