annauga:

There were about 20 single regiments
at Chickamauga which lost approximately
as much as the whole British force at
Glencoe. This loss was fully paid for,
too. The reports show that the rebel
regiments opposed to them sustained quite
as terrible losses. Fully 25 Southern
regiments at Gettysburg each suffered
greater losses than the British, and the
proportion was even greater at Chicka-
manga, where many rebel regiments lost
as high as rs per cent. Of the force they
carried into action.
We fought about $50 small battles during
the war in which the losses were equal
to or greater than those at Glencoe, but OF
which there is scarcely any memory, ex-
cept in the minds of those who partici-
pated in them. Take, for example, the
fight at Iuka, Miss, Sept. 10, 1862, which
probably not one man in a hundred thou
sand to-day can recall ever hearing of.
The Union loss there was 144 killed and
598 wounded while the rebel loss was
1916.

way in which people can be made to COM
prehend the gigantic character Of our own

OUR NAVY IN THE PACIFIC.

When all the ships under orders reach
Rear-Admiral Watson he will have more
than 40 men-of-war, and with Rear-Ad-
miral Kautz's squadron, more than so
armed vessels, or the strongest feet in the
Pacific of any Nation in the world.
Outside of Great Britain we will be strong
er than any other Two Nations, for though
Japan and Russia have together more
vessels, their aggregate strength will
scarcely equal ours.
Including the battleship Wisconsin,
now approaching completion at San Fran
cisco, and the vessels ordered to Manila,
we have in the Pacific three battleships,
one armored cruiser, two monitors, II
protected cruisers. four torpedo-boats, 2s
gunboats, and four auxiliary cruisers,
making total Of SO.
Great Britain has 33 armed vessels all
told; Japan, So; Russia, 10; France, 10
Germany, 8.
Great Britain has three battle ships ir
the Pacific, Japan four, Russia two, France
none, and Germany one.
This array will go far to convince the
world Of our determination to hold on tc

REBEL PENSIONS IN GEoHa1A.

The Macon (Ga.) Telegraph contains a
synopsis of the annual report of the Com
missioner of Pensions for the State Of
Georgia. It is very interesting reading.
Though there has been rapid increase in
the amount required for pensions in the
past six years-nearly so per cent there
is no ill-natured snarl at pensioners, no
defamation of the character of the men and
women to whom the money is paid, no
chuckle over probable decrease In the
burden" In other words, Henry Clay
Evans is not the Commissioner of Pensions
for Georgia, but Judge Richard johnson,
who fought side by side with the pensioners.
and has heart full of sympathy with
them. He reminds the people of the graci-
BUSINESS "of seeing that they shall be helped
in a financial way during the remaining
years of their stay with u.s."
The total number of pensioners on the roll
in 1899 is Hips, an increase Of 731, or
nearly seven per cent.
If Henry Clay Evans had been as pro-
portionately liberal he would have added
about $1,000 to the pension roll last year,
instead Of reducing it 2,195. Strange to
say, this is just the number he reports OF
original applications by those who have
never received any pension.
The Georgia pension roll lost by death
last year SIT, and added 1,3OS, making the
net increase 731 Clearly, the Georgia
Commissioner does not wait for a PEN
sioner to die, before making a new allow
ance.
The pensioners are divided into three
classesl "Widows," INVALID" and en-
digent."
There are 3, FOG widows, who receive S.
month, or $50 year.
There are 3,453 invalids, who receive all
the way from s5 year to $50, the average
being S55.74.
There are 1886 indigents, who get $50
year.
There is an increase in both the invalids
and indigents, particularly the latter,

survivors as the weight of years adds to
their disabilities. The Commissioner
recommends an increased appropriation for
these.
The total disbursements last year were
S652, ,S2O, to which amount it has increased
from S429,0S0 in 1898, 3.x years ago, or
over so per- cent. In the same period the
number Of pensioners has increased from
1920 to II ,125, or over so per cent.
This shows that the State of Georgia has
already adopted a general service pension
and general widows pension.
If these pensions could lbe paid from tax
levied on the property of the nabobs who
incited or coerced these poor men into going
into the rebellion, it would be generally
applauded. 1t would have then the highest
elements of justice.

LET Us MAKE COMPARISONS.

The world is to-day thrilling with the
story Of another victory. Last week a
force of Beers, numbering about 1000,
moved out and attacked British force
of about the same strength in position
near Glencoe, Natal. A battle lasting
eight hours ensued, characterized by
great gallantry on both sides, particularly
that Of the British, who rushed out of their
works and attacked their enemies, stand
ing in a very strong position on hill, and
utterly routed them. Two British regi-
ments-the Dublin Fusiliers and Kings
Rif1es-greatly distinguished themselves
by charging up the hill squarely at the
enemy and breaking their line.
The reported loss of the British in the
engagement is 10 officers and 81 men killed,
and 21 officers and Isl men wounded.
The detailed loss is as follows:
Among the rank and file the Hussars
had seven wounded, the artillery one killed
and three wounded, the Leicestershire
regiment one wounded, the Kings Rifles
liers IA killed and 30 wounded, the Dublin
Fusiliers four killed and al wounded,
and the Natal police two wounded.
This battle fills as much space in the
papers as Gettysburg and Chickamauga
did in 1864, and great deal more in the
European press.
Instinctively, the present generation
thinks that it was about as big battle as
either of them, and unthinkingly measures
them with it. Yet there were about 40
times as many regiments in each of those
battles, and substantially every regiment
engaged sustained from three to eight
times the per centage of loss that the gal
liant Englishmen and Irishmen suffered.
Let it be remembered that the British
regiments were fresh from home, and had
probably in tine neighborhood of 1000
men in ranks, while the regiments of the
Armies of the Potomac and Cumberland
were worn down by constant marching
and fighting until they averaged about
300 muskets. Then contrast the losses
of the Fusliers or the Rifles with these
at Gettysburg:
