Boycott of Army Engineers.

Is the Corps Of Engineers OF the army
to be separated from the military estab-
lishment by the ostracism Of that branch
on the part Of other arms Of the service2
One may gain this impression from the
comment to be found in the admirably
conducted Journal of the Infantry Asso-
citation, a periodical which fully succeeds
in being the organ of the association OF
infantry officers. The editorial comment
In that journal is refreshinCly candid
and fearless, especially in the discussion
Of the pending legislation which aims to
increase the Corps Of Engineers.
That measure. according TO the Infan-
try Journal. is based upon reasons which
are without military significance" with
promise, if the bill is enacted. of effect on
the military service which must be dis
tinctly bad" Criticism is applied TO that
feature of the bill which proposes to
open the retired list to civilians who are
to be appointed IN the corps and who
viii be engaged solely upon works Of
public Improvements, such as river and
harbor projects and in the reclamation
service. In this connection the Infantry
Journal states: After his retirement
from active service practically all Of
which may have been employed in civil
work. he becomes a direct charge on the
military appropriations. a dead load that
the military service must carry and a
part of the argument that eventually
may be turned against the retired list
The retired list was created for a wholly
different purpose, and It behooves the
military service to seek to safeguard It
in every possible way. There IS no more
reason why it should be open to river
and harbor engineers than to reclama-
tlon engineers, or foresters, or mail car
riers"
There is much 10 be said I'm behalf Of
limiting the retired list Of the army 10
those engaged in military duties. There
is, assuredly, no reasons why officers en-
gagged solely on river and harbor work.

To-day is Memorial or Decoration,
Day I'm the North-the day upon which
the graves of the soldiers who fought in
the army Of the North during the civil
war are strewu with flowers. and on
which appropriate ceremonies are held in
the churches and cemeteries.
The Confederate soldiers honor their
dead i'm a similar way, although there Is
no day set aside by an the States for
such an Observance. April IS is Con-

ton was merely an incident that hap
pencd while he was there His first
idea after the conflict was To raise the
ignorant colored people just out of
slavery, TO a higher level, and he sought
20 use the lever Of education with which
to do Il. He offered his services gratult-
ously as superintendent of the schools Of
Charleston, which offer was accepted by
Gen. Hatch, commanding the district for
the whites, and by Gen. Saxton, repre-
sentative Of the Freedman's Bureau for
the colored
During his stay of between three and
four months he reorGanized all the day
schools and established evening schools
for adults. Libraries. &c. He visited the
colored schools frequently, and talked
with the little ones about decorating the
graves of their friends and defenders
who fell i'm the fight for their freedom.
II was well along in April. and following
one of these speeches one of the little
colored girls said:
Let's all of us go an get a'mfuls an

from sight. till we CANT see 'em agin
