MT. Jefferson in his Notes on Virginia, written in 17S1, in speak ing of the State Assemb Y says. With money we will get men, said C@sar, and with men we will get money Nor should our Assembly be deladed by the integrity of their own purposes, and conclude that these unlimited powers will never be abused, because themselves are not disposed to abuse them. They should look forward 10 d time, and that not q distant one, when cor ruption in this, as in the country from which we derive our origin, will have seized heads of govetn. mcnt, aud be spread by them through the body Of the people; when they will purchase the voices of the people, and make them pay the price.

About two weeks after that eonver-
sation the Union army crossed the
Rappahannock, remained two or three
days and then recrossed, having lost
in killed, wounded and prisoners more
men than there are in any Iowa city;
any city in Minnesota, outside of st.
Paul or Minneapolis; any city in Indi-
ana, outside of indianapolis and Evans
vile; any city in Michigan, outside of
Detroit and Grand Rapids; any city
in Wisconsin, outside of Milwaukee;
any city in North or South Dakota
any in Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho
and any in Colorado, except Denver.
This gives the new generation an idea
of what one battle cost the Union
army.
l spoke of history-making along the
Rappahannock thirtyfive years ago.
The pages made during the disastrous
Fredericksburg campaign are rather
dark in some respects, while in others
they are very bright. American SOL
diers on Stafford Heights and Maryes
Heights gave the world new and posi-
tive evidence Of Americas ability to
battle. There was no better fighting
during the war than was done by Burn

and their men from the Heights of
Stafford, and by Lee, Longstreet and
Jackson and their men from the
Heights OF Fredericksburg.
