THE G. A. r. IN THE FUTURE.

The veterans passed the half century
point some years ago. How long will
they remain upon the stage in sufficient
numbers to give spirit to ceremonies
commemorating the civil war? Twenty
years from now we shall be celebrating
the centennial of the victories at Lun-
dy's Lane, Lake Champlain and Balti-
more; also that Of Jackson over Paken-
ham at New Orleans. and about that
time the semicentennial Of the closing
battles of the civil war. Is it daring
assumption TO presume that there will
then be living twice as many Union
veterans as there were boys in blue ON
any of the battlotields of lS61-5? There
are good grounds for believing that such
will be the case.
There were about 1000, 900 individ-
uals recruited for the Union armies, Of
which number $50, 900 Official fgures)
died in service, and at least 40, 600 died
after discharge during the war who are
not included in the government statis-
tics. At the close of the war, then, in
1865, there were living about 1000, 900
veterans averaging about 26 years OF
age. At the average rate for men in
health the number would decrease III
80 years about $50, 900, leaving l,120,-
900 survivors in 1894. About four years
ago the pension and Grand Army roles
and the rosters of veteran associations
showed !, $50, 900 survivors, but part OF
the figures wore not trustworthy, and
q revision of them, together with the
deaths OF the past five years, has
brought the number down TO /, 900, 600.
In other words, there have been 600 900
deaths in so years, an increase Of the
usual mortuary rate. But if there are
oply million left. these being of adj
vanced, age and the mortuary rate has
been excessive thus far. does that argue
against marshaling an army of them 20
years hence? Their average ages now
are about SO. The death report of the
departments of Michigan and New York
ment for the whole United States for
1892 shows that the mortuary rate is
less than the average recognized by in
surance actuaries.
The Michigan report for 90, 900 veter-
ans, averaging So years, showed NOR
tality of 10 to 1000, that of New York
a rate Of 90 i'm /, 900 among Al, 900, and
the national report for 400. 900 men, in
cluding inmates of soldiers homes, pre-
sumably the least healthy Of the surviv-
ors, q rate of IL 10 /, 900. The average
age of the veterans in 1894 is usually
fixed at 30 by experts. and the rate Of
mortality for average men at that age is
about 22 in 1000. That the loss since
the war has been excessive no one will
dispute, but that naturally would occur
in the decade following the soldiers
discharge. Men were discharged for
wounds and diseases by the hundreds Of
thousands, and no doubt death claimed
them within few years at n rate three
or four times greater than the average

thought has been carried still further by
a writer in the Washington Post, who
sees the dramatic and interesting climax

at. or at the middle of the next century,
with the centennial days OF the Mexi-
can war, the discovery OF gold and tho
conquest OF California. lie says:

events out OF which so glorious destiny was
wrought. this solitary soldier shall be the sole
reminder and incarnation, as 1t were, OK the
heroic ago OF the Union.
The war OF the American Revolution closed
in 1883. At that time soldier belonging TO
the regiment Of New York militia commanded
by Colonel Marinus willett. who had been
four years In the army, was a young man or
g. Eighty-six years later, April o. 1869, having
reached the great age of 100, he was gathered
20 his heroic fathers at the town OF Freedom
mot inapty named), Cattaraugus county, n. Y.
His name was Daniel +. Bakeman. and he was
the last OF the Revolutionary pensioners under
special act OF congress.
The last OF the Revolutionary pensioners on
the regular roll was Samuel Downing OF Sara
toga county. ~. V, who enlisted as a private in
l7e0. when only Ia. and died in 1867 at l0l.
Only n years ago there walked among us
one who bore "A musket at the surrender of

These incidents furnish no data, OF course,
on which 90 base exact foreknowledge OF the
time when there shall remain in the land Of
the living only single soldier OF the great ar
mics that were dis5anded ia 1865, but IL is not
unreasonable to suppose that, even IL none OF

that the man who is destined TO bear the proud
but melancholy distraction OF being the last
survivor will not be living later than 1850.
And what retrospect will be his as, stand

from diseases in the army, and il must
be supposed that the seeds of death were
brought ont of the army by tens of
thousands of those discharged out of
hospitals or prison parole camps.
As has been stated, the death rate IL

at 57-which is probably the proper ago

~ THE ARMENIAN MASSACRE.

Confirmation of the Terrible News Re-

London, Nov. 1.-THE Daily News
correspondent in Constantinople says
in a dispatch concerning the massacre
of Armenians in the Saesoun district:
"Sir Philip Currie sent Consul Hall
wards report Of the incidents at Sas-
SCUM to the Porte in order to indicate
the serious nature Of the events. The
Porte, instead Of accepting this in Q
friendly manner, brusquely denies the
facts, asserting that Mr.. Hallward's
report is untrue. It was insinuated,
or stated outright, that he had encour-
