a 129,h Ill. Man Writes of Special Acts of
Gallantry.
EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: I see q
discussion regarding medals OF honor and
complaints that these medals are being dis
tributed, many times, to those who have not
earned them.
We are in n measure, all of us, creatures
of circumstance; to some comes the oppor-
tunty Of doing brave deed, some note
worthy act that to others is denied so
some win honors while others look on.
l am no redal-of-honor man myself; |
have no claim for anything of the kind.
Yet, l know full well there are many deserv-
ing comrades entitled 10 wear this medal
who have not been so honored. If any COM
rade thinks it an easy job to get this medal,
let him try. If he wins, / will say the
evidence was great and the award just.
Hardly regiment that saw service On the
front line bat what can furnish n few can
didates for this honor. Let me tell Of sotHe
deeds that came under my notice. One
case was that of Capt. Samuel T. Walkley.
Co. b, 126th H., July 90, 1865, at Peach
Tree Creek. He says the official record of
the civil war; in the list of trophies cap
tured on the Atlanta campaign, captured
one infantry sword and scabbard, after a
Herce struggle, from the nanQS Oh rebel
Captain.
Again, Capt. Walkley that day, while
passing from one regiment to another ON
duty as Brigade Officer of the Day, ran
upon the rear of squad of eight armed
sharpshooters, demanded their surrender,
and, dsarming them, brought them safely
within our lines
On the same field, the same day, Thomas
Collins, Co. F, 129th H., seeing the color
bearer of the 5lth Miss. fall, rushed into
the Confederate lines seized the fallen flag,
and through as hover of lead bore it i'll
triumph back to US and gave it to Col. Case
Serg't j. Ii. Peak, also of Co. F. in press
ing forward after the heaviest of the charges
were past, at Peach Tree Creek, accompanied
by only one man, ran upon rebel officer
and 25 men of their skirmish-line. He sur
rounded them, and brought them back in
safety, and was received with the plaudits
of the whole regiment he so richly deserved.
At Resaca, Ga, May 10, 1864, Capt j. Fl.
Culver, now of Emporia, Kans., the only
officer of our regiment left alive and un-
wounded, who led the boys beyond the
captured guns on the nights of Red Knob
Gap, held the position until only 81 men
were left with him, each and every one of
whom should have medal. He held the
fort and captured battery until relieved at
10 o'clock p. M, the only protection afforded
him being ths dead body of Capt. Black
burn, Co. A, 10th Ohio, whose blood satu-
rated his clothing from chin to boots.
Any comrade who saw much service can
tell of brave acts and daring deeds, if he
cares to remember back so far. l trust no
true comrade will begrudgs to other COM
rades the honors won or the distinction due

Asthma and Hay-Fever cure.-Free.

We are glad TO inform our readers that sure
specific cure for Asthma and liay-fever is found
in the kola Plant. new botanical discovery
from the Congo River, West Africa. Many
sufferers report most marvellous cures from It's
use. Among Others Mr.. Alfred G. Lewis,
Editor of the Farmers Magazine. and Rev J. L.
Combs OF Nartinsburg. West Va, were COM
pletely cured by the Kola Plant after thirty
years suffering. Mr.. Lewis could not lie down
at night in Hay fever season for fear of chok-
ing. and Mr. Combs was q life long sufferer
from Asthma. Hon. l.. 6. Clute, of Greeley,
Iowa, writes that for eighteen years he slept
propped up in chair, being much worse in
Hsy-fever season. and the Kola Plant cured
him at once. 1t is truly most wonderful
remedy. If you are sufferer we advise you to
send your address to the Kols Importing Co.,
116i Broadway, n. Y, who to prove its power
will send a Large Case by mail free to every
reader of THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE who needs
it. All they ask in return is that when cured
yourself you will tell your neighbors about it.
1t costs you nothing and you should surely

with the former army, admitted Of a
strength of 39,973; but at no time dur
ing the war did the Regular Army at
tain strength Of $4,000 men.
To the new regiments of infantry was
given an organization differing from any
that had heretofore prevailed in this
country-of three Eattalions of eight
companies each; but at no time did
more than one of these regiments attain
Its full standard nor, in the vast army
Of volunteers that was raised during the
war, were any of the regiments of in
fantry formed on the three battalion
system, but these were universally single
battallons of 10 companies; so that, on
the reorganization of the Regular Army
at the close of the war, Congress adopted
the form of y companies for the regi-
ments of cavalry and artillery, and that
Of 10 companies for the infantry.
Inasmuch as the Regular Army will
naturally form the standard of organiza-
ton for any increase OR for new regi-
ments of volunteers, it becomes import
ant to study this subject in the light of
past experience, and to select that form
which is best for peace as we'll as war.
A cavalry regiment is now composed
of II companies, usually divided into
SIX squadrons of two companies each, or,
better, subdivided into three battalions
of four companies each. This is an ex-
cellent form, easily admitting of subdi-
vision, as we'll as union into larger
masses.
A single battalion of four companies,
with field officer, will compose good
body for garrison, for separate expe-
dltion, or for detachment; and in war
three regiments would compose good
brigade, three brigades division, and
three divisions strong cavalry corps,
such as was formed and fought by Gems.
Sheridan and Wilson during the war.
In the artillery arm the officers differ
widely in their opinion of the true Or
ganization. A single company forms a
battery, and habitually each battery
acts separately, though sometimes sew
eral are united or "massed y; but these
always act in concert with cavalry or
infantry.
Nevertheless, the regimental organiza-
ton for artillery has always been main
tanned in this country for classification
and promotion. Twelve companies
compose regiment, and though prob
ably no Colonel ever commanded his
full regiment in the form of - batter
les, yet in peace they occupy our heavy
seacoast forts or act as infantry then
the regimental organization is both nee
essary and convenient.
