Finest Soldiers Home in the World.

Correspondence of the Courier Journal
WASHINGTON, July 19.--Ever
mindful of the comfort and happi-
ness of the men who volunteered to
serve him upon the field of battle,
Uncle Sam is about to erect for
their use, near Johnson City, Tenn,
what will probably be the finest
veteran and invalid soldiers home
in the world. Institutions Of like
character already in existence in
this country are commodious and
we'll appointed, but none of them
will bear comparison with the home
which is to be built in Tennessee, the
cost of which is now estimated at a
round million of dollars.
Like the soldiers homes at Togus,
Me-; Quincy, H., and Dayton, O.,
the new one is to be retreat for
disabled volunteer soldiers who have
served the Union, no matter in what
war, but the rules governing admit
lance to it will embody new de-
parture which does credit TO the
head and heart of Uncle Sam, but
one, which even but a few years ago,
could not have been adopted except
in the face of a storm of angry pro-
tests. The home at johnson City,
if the present plan is adhered to,
will be open to disabled soldiers of
the Confederacy upon the same
terms as to those who served in the
armies of the Union. "Y ank" and
Johnny" will there lounge about
beneath the same friendly shade and
be enabled to compare notes and
recall the stirring and tragic times
when they faced each other IN bat
tie array. If this determination on
the part of Uncle Sam does not
mean that ''the cruel war is over"
it is hard to say what further evil
dence is needed 10 establish the fact.
