doomed. Surgeon Steward said yester.
day that when a man was sent there
he hardly ever leaves it alive. In this
tent yesterday there were eight poor
fellows, any one of whom is liable to
die at any moment. Some of them
are delirious and grasping at the open
air in their frantic efforts to catch
breath.
CONvALEsCENTS' TENT.
While there is a tent for the doomed
there are quarters for the convalescent.
Several large tents, with chairs and
reading room, set aside for men wAo
are able to walk about.
Were it not for the Red Cross and
other benevolent societies the patients
at this hospital, as we'll as others, would
fare hard. This society alone furnish
es 1000 pounds of ice daily, and twenty
gallons of milk. Sixty gallons are
purchased with funds sent in.

of patients and give them the proper
attention"
This man went on to state that only
a few days ago a dead mana member
of Pennsylvania regiment was her
mitted to lay in the dead house for
hours before he was removed.
Men have to be neglected because
there are not enough physicians and
nurses, and many die because they had
not been properly treated at the begin
ming Of their illness. These defects
have been very much worse than they
are now, and Gen. Breckenridg is using
every endeavor to provide the necessary
assistance for the proper care of the
men.

In the midst of the war excite
ment we should not lose sight OF
the doings of the Constitutional
Convention, and just now that body
has under consideration two meas
ures of apparently trivial mpor-
tanee, bnt which IN reality are of
vital interest to the people. We
refer to the proposed appointment
OF the registrars of voters by the
governor, and project Of requir-
ing all tax sales and other official
advertisements to- be published in
the official Journals OF the differ
cnt parishes, without corapensa
tion. These two schemes are the
very essence of the old Warmoth
schemes for electoral frauds, the
one is to letsthn registrar of voters
practice all kinds of dishonesty in
elections, and the other to be used
as a great lever to break down all
independent country newspapers,
to prevent the exposure of such
election frauds and to build up a
class of papers to cover up the
same. This last scheme is d dead
ly blow at Independent country
journalism, and can have but one
effect, and that is to cover up con-
tenlplated frauds upon the elective
franchise. The Convention has
been guilty of many crimes Of
commission and omission, but this
can not be classed us an error of
Judgment, but is stamped with |
fraud and dishonesty upon its face. |

In our advertising columns will
be found an announcement of Ex-
Senator John j. Ingalls, forth,
coming book, entitled "Ameriea's
War For Humanity" Canvassing
agents will find in it a book Of re-
markable interest, and certainly of
extraordinary STABILITY. The his
tory of the war is told in picture
and story, and in q way that al
ways characterizes the brilliant pen
of Senator ingalls,. In narrating
the incidents of this war he finds
grand scope for his superb des-
criptive and analytical powers.
The theme is worthy of the author,
and the author is worthy of the
theme. It is published by N. D.
Thompson Publishing Co., of St.
Louis, Mo. 1t will be a monu-
mental work that will not only be
everywhere read, but it will be a
monument to his genius that will
outlive in history his brilliant sen
atorial career. The subscription
book trade and the canvassing
agent are fortunate in the fact that
an author of such rare ability has
been enlisted in its interest.

| Mr.. A. Cox of ward 6, came tc
town last Thursday to try to gel
tho Range people to comply will
their agreement on which they in.
duced him to sign a $73 note for a
stove. They were to sell his old
stove, which was good enough for
him, and guarantee S25 for ii
they were to give him s or 10
days work at 81 per day, and were
to board with him while canvass
ing the adjacent territory, all to be
credited on his note, which credits
would be over one-half. On these
representations this hard-working,
honest citizen was induced to sign
a note which will swallow his cot
ton crop this fall. The agent who
sold him pleaded sickness against
canvassing any further, and the
manager an early departure. Mr.
Cox offered them SIS in cash and
their new stove back for his note.
but they refused it, showing that
their profit is much over SIS.
