THAT Dor Oh Belle I.le.

Editor National Tribune: / saw In
The National Tribune Of May "a that
Comrade Vinson, Of Paxton. ILL.,, asked
IL any one is living who feasted of that
little dog on Belle Island in 1863.
wish to tell him that I caught and
killed that dog, and never ate, and
never will eat, piece Of meat that
tasted as good as it did. Comrade Vim
son made a mistake about the time,
something we are liable to do after SO
many years. That officer did not come
In the evening; he knew his life would
not have been safe in that desperate,
starving crowd. He would have dis
appeared like the dog, but hardly have
been made a meal Of, for l don't be-
lieve he would have tasted as good. i
wonder how many Of the 10000 we had
at one time there are living YETI ]
hope many are still living, and are able
to read that great National Tribune,
the best friend Of the soldiers. When
I get II with some others in the mail
on Thursday II is the one I open first
to look for news Of my comrades. ]
would specially like to hear from the
one who furnished the kettle, or the
other who got the wood to cook the
dog believe one comrade had a
pinch OF salt, but would not swear to
the latter, as everybody knows salt was
a scarce article In the Southern Con-
federacy. We never had any in our
so-called meals.-E. Niederman, Co.

A Volunteer Retired List.

Editor National Tribune: The COM
nunication In your issue Of April 26,
inst. relating to a Volunteer Retired
List" 1 have read carefully and with
much interest. In justice to the VOL
unteer officers such a law should be
passed without delay, but to retire a
portion, and ignore others who did
their duty just as nobly IL not in line
with justice. II general officer or q
Second Lieutenant have either per-
formed exceptional service, deserving
special recognition, by all means give
1t to them; but to recognize one set Of
officers solely on account Of their rank.
and deny others simply because they
did not attain such rank, Is discrimin-
alton very much like class legislation.
II would not, and should not be an
proved by the people
My four years Of active service first
under Gen. Grant. 1S61-62-63, then
Gen. Sherman, to the Grand Review
here In Washington, May. 1865, leads
me to observe that the officers below
the rank of Brigadier- General. az a
class, were just as efficient and impor-
tant In the performance of their du-
ties. to the end in view, as the general
officers as class. This conclusion IS
made with all due respect and kind
est regard for our general volunteer
officers, many Of whom / knew and met
on the field Of battle when ii tried the
souls OF men. / served during the lat
ter part OF the war as staff officer per
sonal Aid-de-Camp to Gen. Belknar
Qate Secretary of War;. than whom nc
Drawer or more efficient officer no more
true or noble man ever lived I loved
MIN because of his patriotic devotion
and noble manhood in war and IN
peace. Were he alive, am sure he
would say my duties performed for
him and country were as important 10
the end as were his to his superiors
and country.
BY all means pass a Iong-deferred
ano Justly-due Volunteer Retired
List; by no means discriminate on &C.
count Of rank.-H. c. Macarthur. 18th

The average woman buyer at the

Of the tongue to complete the seem

thinks the dear creatures do this &c

A Modest Request.
A handsome young lady came into
an office, walked up to the delivery win
dow. pushed letter through with two
pennies on 1t, and remarked, You
stick the stamps on this letter. Stamps
don't taste good to me-"
Some people are infrequent patrons
Of the mail service, even In this ad-
vanced age. 1t is told in Indiana that
a young man grew to manhood IN
"Hooppole Township" and celebrated
his 21st birthday by going to town to
get the mail, a distance OF eight miles.
for the first time in his life. Upon his
return he was telling his mother Of the
many wonderful things he had seen on
the great journey over to Posey, and
he wound up the narrative with the
declaration. "I'n tell you what's the
matter, Ma, II this earth Is as big in
every direction as 1t is over toward
POsey, my, but shes a whopper."
A California Postmaster tells this:
mot long ago a party called at this Of
fee for q letter which had not yet ar
rived, and when SO informed, he put on
a grieved expression and said. Cant
you telephone to the Postmaster in Los
Angeles and find out II it has left there
YETI AS Los Angeles is a city Of about
200, 900 Inhabitants, / told him the
Postmaster was probably pretty busy,
SO he had better wait a little longer"
These incidents show that some ru-
raj Postmasters are in the market for
trouble, both subjectively and objec-
lively, as the college sophomore would
say.
A remedy, which would provide in
telligent, patient and competent Post
masters, and at the same time educate
the public to the point Of duly appre-
ciattng and decently treating them.

genuine postal reform.
