Don't Talk of Your Little Boer War.

Don't Talk Of Your Little Boer war Gen. Frank V. Greene in Scribner's.
 The campaigns and battles of the civil war were on a scale of surpassing mag: r.tude. There were more than a score of single battles, sometimes extending over several days, in each of which the losses In killed and wounded on the Federal side were greater than the aggregate of all cur losses in all our other wars com biaed. How paltry seem the 5,0OO men Killed and wounded in the war uf Bl2. or the war in Mexico, or the war with Spain, compared with tha 1L0Oo at Shi- loh, 15.OOO at the Chickahominy, 13,0oO at Antietam, the sane at Fredericksburg, 16,00e st Charlottesville, 8.00O at Get tysburg 16,0O0 at ChickamauSa. 3l.VOO in the Wilderness, and 260o0 at Spottsylva- mia. The grand aggregate of destruction feirly staggers the imagination, accus. toned az we have been for more than generation to the figures: 5000 killed by bullets, 1S5.000 killed by disease 5,01t dead from other causes-a grand total of 304,O00, about one In nine Of every nan who wore the uniform.
 In no other war in all time has such respect been paid to the dead. Immedi, ateiy after it's close the Secretary oi War was directed by Congress ito Be- cure suitable burial places, and to have these grounds inclosed. so that the rest ing places of the honored dead may bt separate and distinct national cemeteries the bodies of nearly 300,00O soldiers whC died during the civil war are interred and the decoration of their grave with flowers on a fixed day has become a national custom. Some of the cemeteries contain each a silent army Of over lO,0O' soldiers in serried ranks marked by tho white headstones. on nearly half of whicf Is Inscribed unknown" The world may be searched in vain for anything simi lar or kindred; there Is no other sucf impressive sight.
 On flames eternal camping ground,
 Their silent tents are spread;
 And glory guards with solemn round,
 The bivouac of the dead.

their way into the public prints. She

the lesson while she listened. She
was, of course, obcyed, and FOR over n

manned at the window.
So pleased was she with the iuvcn.
les answers that she told them she
would treat them all to cake and
chocolate very soon and rode off amid
the cheers OF the youngsters. The FOL.

invitation that afternoon upon chocc.

nor need the fact that the Empress
possesses there 400 very loyal little
subjects.
