been pushed vigorously OF late ne
reports from I'll sources are most graf
flying. Not only are The facilities for

AMERICAN VALoR.

In recent debate in the house of
representatives on the army appropria-
ton bill, Representative WarnC cofk
Ohio Incorporated in his speech some
interesting statistics as to Confederate
aud Federal losses in the civil war.
Some humor was interjected into the
debate by the question of Mr.. Burleson
of Ttxas, who il qnired how tue NOR
tally of the battles of the civil war
compared with the mortality of the bat
tie of San Juan hill, aud 10y the addi-
tional interrogatory as to the ratio OF
brevets which were conferred as the re-
sult of the battle of Gettysburg as COM
pared with the:brevets which were con-
ferred as result of the sanguinary
conflict which took place at San Juan
hill.
The battle of Borodino between
the French and the Russians,
Mr.. Warnock said, was perhaps
the bIoodiest battle since the in
vention of gunpowder; there were 80, :
900 men killed on each side But as
each army numbered over 10000, the
per cent of loss was less than at Get
tysburg and less than at Waterloo.
The losses at Gettysburg and at
Waterloo were about $4,000 on each
side for each battle, percentage of %
to 80 per cent. Mr.. Warnock read the
records of over sixty regiments Of the
Confederate and Federal armies in va
rious battles where the losses were
from 80 to So per cent.
The First Minnesota regiment has 6
record of honor. During the second
days fight at Gettysburg General Han
cock ordered that regiment to attack
Wilcox's Confederate brigade. which
was advancing to take position which
he regarded as the key to his lines
and in holding the Confederates il
check the 262 men were reduced to A.
a loss of 80 3 per cent.
General Hancock pronounced thiI
/ feat of the FIRST Minnesota the mos
gallant deed recorded in history I
was equaIed, however, by the FRS
: Texas at Antietam. The 22G men of thu
FIRST Texas at that battle were reduced
to 40, also loss of 80 8 per cent.
] he Twenty-sIxth North Carolina al
) Gettysburg suffered the greatest LOST
of any regiment in modern warfare. [
went into the first days fight with 82C
men and came out on the third day
with so men, loss of over 80 per cent
No country IN the world can show
such a record as that of our American
civil war. 1t was the greatest war il
, history. There were 1882 general en-
gagements, battles and skirmIshes
Half million men were killed or NOR
tally wounded on the battlefield and &
