WEDNESDAY EVENING, FEB. G, 1895.

MANY of the Southern people who
suffer from the result Of the war be-
tween the States, when the matter is
called to their attention, wonder why
certain ex-Confederate camps and GER
tain Southern newspapers, while intent
upon decorating and adjoining the
hattlefelds in the South on which the
Federal troops gained victories, seem
never to have conceived the idea OF
identifying any of those on which the
Confederates were successful. If any
battlefield of an internecine war should
be adorned, which all wise men deny,
way not the first, as well as the last ?
And certainly if heroism in such war
is 10 be commemorated, that displayed
i. Bull Run, where smaller number
of raw volunteers routed the whole
and lsr-er Federal army, and would
hive captured Washingtonif permitted
TO DO so by their commander, is more
worthy of it than Appomattox, where,
four yeats later, few worn-out, half
starved Confederates, alarmed and
with no ammunition, surrendered to 81
well conditioned army, that outnum-
bered them twenty to one. The war is
over and gone, and so should be its
battlefelds.
