The maximum of comfort attends the
traveller over the Southern Railway,
whose officials and agents bend every
energy toward that end. All with
whom came in contact were courteous
and patient and painstaking in the dis
charge of their several duties relative
to the wayfarers committed to their
care. The road is crowded to its
utmost carrying capacity, but it's
splendid road-bed and excellent man

Some Civil War Facts.


From the Atlanta Constitution.
Some interesting disclosures have
recently been made by The Army and
Navy Journal concerning the various
nationalities represented in the union
army during the war between the
states.
Out OF an enrolment of 1000, 600
officers and men. it appears that one
fourth of this number were of foreign
birth, distributed among the various
nationalities as follows; Germany, 175,- :
900; England, $4,000; British Ameri-
ca. $4,000; Ireland, 10000; other
countries. $4,000, making in all 5O0,-
600 foreigners enlisted on the union
side.
In view OF this showing is It any
wonder that the result of thE war was
inevitablep The marval of it all is
that the South, with only 600,0 men
anlisted during the entire service, sue
ceeded in keeping such an army at
bay for four long years. To-day the
records OF the government will show
that on the federal pension rolls there
are more union veterans enrolled than
there were soldiers mustered In the
confederate ranks, and still there are
more who want to get on.
This statement is made without any
feeling of bitterness. We all rejoice
that the war is over and that peace
has come back again, but since the
South lost in the struggle 1t is some-
thing of an JUNCTION to the wounded
pride of the old veterans who wore the
gray to know just how 1t was.
But the Army and Navy Journal
goes on to give some additional sta
tist;cs which will probably interest our
readers and which suggest no invid-
ious comparisons. Forty-eight per
cent. OF the soldiers In the union army
were farmers, ~ per cent. were me-
chanics, 16 per cent. were laborers, 5
per cent. were professional men and 4
per cent. were miscellaneous.
There is just one thought which oc-
ours to US in this connection. If 48
per cent of the soldiers who composed
the rank and file of the union army
were farmers, 1t is probable that the
same figures are approximately true OF
the confederate army, and this being
taken for granted, it follows that the
country 10 indebted to the farmers in
greater measure than most of us have
been inclined to suppose and that be-
sides being our mainstay and support
In time of peace, they have also been
our protection In time of war. Let as
bear this fact In mind when we are
tempted to forget them.
Another interesting fact brought out
by this same authority is that the av-
erage height of the union soldier was
B feet incss. Unfortunately we have
no way of getting at such statistics in
regard to the confederate army. We
never had time to take them.
