Complaints.
Henry G. Brown, who was born In North
| Carolina and served during the war in the
9Th Cal, titled at the close Of his service in
Lincoln County, N. NJ. He is now over 60
and incapacitated by his broken health for
| outdoor labor. For some years he has been
school cook for the Mascalero Indian Agency,
| and gave great satisfaction by his ability and
punctual attendance to duty. But with the
| incoming of the present Administration q
new kind Of Inspectors appeared on the
scene. They were Southerners, and as soon
| as they found that the old man had COM
mitted the awful offense of Southern-bOrn
man fighting for the Union they began to
make trouble for him, and finally discharged
him.
Homes for Settlers.
G. Harrington, Knob View, Mo j., says there
are few small tracts Of Government1and left
in his town, which is "a miles southwest Of
st. Louis, on the north slope of the Ozarks;
most healthy and pleasant climate. The
land is billy, broken and stony, but has good
soil and some fair oak and other timber. 1t
is worth taking as free gift, is it not?
This is virtually what Uncle Sam offers it
for to his old boys in blue.

No Time to Find It.
s. HWright, 18th N. Y, Bridgeport, Conn,
writes: "In the issue of Jan. 81, W. l. Cros-
ley, Co. G, 34th Ohio, seems to be in doubt
as to whether the bridge crossing Cedar
Creek was destroyed during the fight Of
Oct 10, 1864. 1t was said at the time that
lots of Early's men didn't stop to find it, in
their haste to get on the other shore. Per-
haps that may have given rise 10 the idea
that it was gone, but it certainly was there
the morning of the Goth, for we First Bril-
gade, Second Division, Nineteenth Corps
crossed it, and followed the Johnnies quite
distance up the Valley. My recollection of
the bridge was that it was quite narrow, and
place that would easily get choked up by
fleeing army. / haven't heard of any more
Little Orderlies" lately. Have they all been
heard from? Don't be bashful, bGys; speak
up if it was you"
