HE story Of the civil war has
been told and retold from plat
= form and press. particularly on
Memorial day. until the shelves Of our
libraries TEEN with the volumes OF rec
,,rds OF that epoch Of our country's
history. vn~s
In many q garnet or family cabinet
may be found some cap or portion OF
q garment worn during the strife by
the soldier boy OF the family: possibly
the battered. bullet-pierced canteen
May have its place.
To each or to all OF these the gray
haired veteran may point his children
: at this memorial season. while telling
them OF the part he took in the strug-
gle. But there Is still another remind
er OF those years Of national trial.
simple though It may be. that serves
to recall the spirit that prevailed be-
fore hostilities began. as well as to re-
mind Us of the progress OF events dur.
ing the development OF those four
years of bloody conflict II is the sta.
lionery used in the correspondence be-
tween camp and fireside and between
home and battlefield.
One envelope shows Gen. Scott to
: be the bulldog. with Jen Davis as the
smoking car. and the bone of conten.
ton as the city OF Washington. The
gamscock aud shanghai envelope has
no Significance only as one turns to an
issue OF the Richmond Examiner Of
that period and reads THE capture OF
Washington is perfectly within the
power Of Virginia and Maryland. The
entire population pant for the onset.
Our people can take It. They will
take It. and Scott. the arbitrator. and
Lincoln. the beast, combined. cannot
prevent IT, The just indignation OF an
outraged and deeply injured people
will teach the Illinois ape to repeat his
race and rctrace his journey across
the border OF the free negro state still
more rapidly than he came. And Scott.
the traitor. will be given the oppor-
tunity at the same time to try the DIFF.
ference between SCOTS tactics and the
shanghai dr!ll for quick movements"
The Ellsworth envelope was popular
throughout the union. as was the
young man of - years" and his Chi
cagO zouaves. His genuine energy and
self-cOnfdence had won the attention
and admiration OF the whole country.
