AS nearly everything else has been writ
ten up fully in regard to slSirmishes that
occurred between the Spanish and Ameri-
can soldiers, the ration question rs now
being brought forward, and general COM
plant seems to have prevailed everywhere
from Santiago to San Francisco, but 50
far we have never yet seen an itemized re-
port of the kind of rations or the amount
issued TO each soldier, and every one Is
left I'm doubt about the matter
il Is well known that the soldiers In the
Confederate army seldom complained OF
their rations in public, never in print, as
1t was taken for granted that their govern
ment was doing the best 1t could. Occa-
slonally 1t was a feast when a Federal sup
ply train was captured, and there was
slight change made on a successful battle
field by taking haversacks from dead Fed
erai soldiers
ratlons Of a Confederate soldier when
marching or lighting, were one pint Of corn
meal, one-fourth pound of bacon. II camp
ing, in addition to this he drew one-fourth
pound of sugar, or one-half pint Of molas-
SEES, three-fourths OF a pound OF black
bugs, one ounce of salt and one-eighth of
a pound of soap, and on Christmas day
digger of pine top whisky.

Smith invaded Kentucky in 1862 they had
ten days rations issued to them and start

rear Of Cumberland Gap, Reaving their wa

the end Of the sixth day, there was not
six pounds of rations IN the whole divis-

something. to eat, bought whole fields Of
corn which were In the roasting ear stage,
and the soldiers we're told to help them
selves. As the soldiers were mad no cooking

roast It, the result being that IL was burn

Private Dan Brown, Of this city, remarked
in hearing Of Gen. Cleburne that he had

asked by Gen. Cleburne where he got his
breakfast and what il consisted of, he re-
piled very promptly that 1t consisted of
three canteens of duck-pond soup and
smoke.

FREIGHT ROOM SCARCE.
Difficulty In Getting Vessels For
Cotton Shipments.

Dimculty In Getting Vessels For
Cotton Shipments.
Steamship tonnage Is very scarce and
freights rates have materially advanced
during the past week.
This state of affairs has caused much
uneasiness among shippers of grain and
cotton. Up to a month ago steamship
freights had been dragging and there mad
been natural yielding for want of BUSH
ness. But when the inquiry for grain car
riers came the market became remark
ably active.
The American market depends almost
entirely upon foreign ships in taking car
goes of grain and cotton, and when BUSH
ness is dull on the other side of the At
lantic there is plenty of tonnage Offer
ing, but owners have lately been receive
ing profitable rates at European ports,
and consequently there Is a scarcity of
tonnage offered ON this side, except at
high rates.
The rise in rates has done a good turn
for the transatlantic lines, increasing their
freight business considerably, and berth
rates for cotton and grain have materially
advanced during the past week, for Sep
TENDER and October shipping.
Freight rates on cotton, direct from this
port to the continent have advanced fully
% cents a bale in the past week. There
are eight steamships now at this port lead
ing cotton for Europe and there are at
least ten to ARRIVE within the next few
weeks. The receipts of cotton are increas-
ing daily and berth room on the steam
ships seems 10 be taken freely, notwith-
standing the increase In the rates.
