The morning of the 7th broke upon
battlefield strewn with the wreckage
of terrible fighting, but the two for
midable opponents had finished writ
ing into history the Battle of the Will
derness. The forces of Lee had re-
tired behind their intrenchments; the
Federal troops were unwilling to at
tack them so protected.
Orders were issued late in the after
noon for night march of the entire
army toward Spottsylvania. Early in
the evening the Acknowledgements and
Meade with their stats started out
upon the way. When we reached Han
cocks corps, the brave fellows were
lying behind their works most of them
asleep, and we picked our steps care
fully along in the darkness to safe
guard the recumbent soldiers.

General Hancock and the twain

1t wasn't long before the boys
sensed the presence of Grant, and al
though orders had been given to re-
frain from cheering, owing to the prox-
unity Of the enemy, when they learned
that he was facing southwark, they
sprang to their feet and the rocks and
woods sent back the echo of their
boisterous shouts.
Some rather harsh criticism has
been directed at General Grant for the
tremendous sacrifice of life in the VIII
derness campaign, and his alleged cal
lousness at the wholesale slaughter of
his men.

co1neth the world and this is the vic
tory that overcometh the world---even
our faith. What kind of faith Is this
victorious faith? It is a faith that
prays; it is a faith that has lifted
look; it refuses to live on the low
lands Of life; it will not consent to
live under the law of self-indulgence
lust because it is easy and follows
the lure OF dead resistance. It is the
faith that will not consent to the
dead levels OF life, the levels OF the
crowd--refuse their standards, Ideals
and associations. Live above the
crowd as II regeneration were true!
Learn to live ON the hills. God Is
there-or as Wen as that noble com
pany who have triumphed in their
faith and have gone on before. Look
around you--you win find confusion.
Look within you, you will find doubt,

ITALIAN CABINET
 MAY SOON RESIGN
Premier's Speech at Turin Viewed By Berlin As Indi-
 cation of Coming Action.

Berlin, Feb. 5, by Wireless to Say ville.-The following was given out for publication today by the Overseas News Agency:
 Berlin newspapers give accounts of a speech made in Turin by Premier Sa1andra of Italy, in which he said:
 "tBe strong and united, in order to support the government and in crder to replace the government with another, if necessary. We are fight ing in the trenches, and fighting in the trenches exhausts forces. The moment may come when it will be necessary to retire behind the pres ent front. state this expressly in crder to leave no room for erroneous interpretations. Then we shall re- tire in order to begin anew.
 This moment may come and the liberal monarchist party-the great party which made Italy and which must accomplish the work of pre- serving ItaIy-must then have men in reserve in order to sacrifice them for the country if necessary.
 ""The newspapers ask whether the premiers utterances may be an 1n- dication of the coming resignation Of the present cabinet They point out that Premier Goremykin of Russia al- ready has retired and that Theophlle Delcasse gave way as foreign minister of France, Grand Duke Nicholas as Russian commander-in chief, and Winston Spencer Churchill as first lord of the British admiralty. The retirement of Premier Salandra, the newspapers say, may possibly come in consequence of economic difficult ties existing in Italy and of an- tagonism between Italy and Great Britain on account of the question how to provide Italy with cheap CoaI''

New York, Feb. 5.-Charges that Spanish fishermen were being em- ployed by the Germans to lay mines off French ports were made today by Ship Surgeon Ponez, who arrived here on board the French liner Chicago from Bordeaux.
 Dr. Ponez said that numerous mines had been placed in the mouth of the Gironde river and that he saw a Brit ish and a Spanish ship blown up in that neighborhood. Dr. Ponez joined the Chicago after seeing long service at the front in the Champagne district. He said he saw eight chill dren killed on Christmas day ny German shell.

ATTEMPT TO BLOW
 UP VICTORIA BRIDGE
Military Guards Foil Plans by Chal- longing Two Men Making Way
 Toward Structure.

Montreal, Feb. 5.-What is believed to have been an attempt to blow up the Victoria bridge was frustrated last night by militia guards, it was learned today.
 About midnight the guards not ced a man making his way toward the bridge on the ice. He was picked out by the searchlights and, when chal- lenged, retreated without answering About 4 o'clock a man was again de- tected trying to reach the bridge from the ice. When he refused to answer a challenge he was fired at but suc- ceeded in making his escape.
 An investigation started by the mili- tary authorities has convinced them that an attempt to destroy the bridge was intended.
 The Victoria bridge crosses the St. Lawrence and is used by the Grand Trunk railway and the Delaware and Hudson railway. It is a mile and a half in length and has been guarded hy soldiers since the outbreak of the
