The Post Office Departments ex-
pertinent as a handful distributor"
has been declared a failure by Post
master General James A. Farley.
He signed an order resembling, ef-
fective July /, 1885, the departments s
general order permitting direct mail
advertisers to use sirnplifled address
system. Under it the matter could
be sent, not to any particular person
by name, but merely to householder
or patron"
The official reason given was that
"after continuing this test for six
months the department has concluded
that the revenue derived from this
source is not sufficient to justify its
continuance
When the order was originally is
sued on october II, 1884, it created
q storm of protest from newspapers,
on the ground that it tended to
ALLEVIATE advertising from their COL
umns.

was broken by farm houses and
patches Of woods. On the Hagerstown
pike, about q mile from Sharpsburg,
stood a little Dunkard church. The
breakfast fires Of the Confederate
line were stretched out In the outline
of q bow, with the Potomac as its
taut string.
Lee was unprepared for battle. His
forces we're divided. Stonewall Jack
son and A. p. Hill were at Harpers
Ferry, miles away, trying to clear
the town of Federal troops. The
Southern commander had disposed his
available troops in the strongest posi-
ton possible to hold the ground until
Jackson could come up. It was the
Union strategy to attack at once. and
Mcclellan ordered Hooker's Division
to force q crossing Of the Antietam.
But the sun was near setting before
he finally had a battery in place to
cover an advance, and in the mean
time, Jackson had come in from Har.
pers Ferry and had taken over the
command Of the Confederate left
wing, which would resist the attack.
There was an artillery duel until
after dark, when both armies
bivouacked for the night. All through

into position for the next massacre.
the affair Of Bloody Lane" About
q half mile south Of the church q
road wound through the fields, its
bed for some distance being lower
than the ground on either side. This
sunken road afforded natural breast
works. Lee, seeing his left being
slowly forced back, ordered a stand
made there. It was death trap.
The sunken road was shelled and In
a short time was filled with Confed-
crate dead.
Up to this point the battle was
progressing according to McClellan's
plan, although somewhat more slowly
than he had anticipated. This plan
was simply that Hooker should drive
back the Confederate left and, when
he appeared to be succeeding, Burn
side was to launch an attack on the
right. After the Bloody Lane mas
sacre Burnside's troops were ordered
forward. They tried to push over
stone bridge across the Antietam
near Sharpsburg. which since has
been known as "BurnSide's Bridge"
~ Wdc uCu Wy bA46ddC Va
Georgia troops strongly placed among
rocks, trees and on nearby bluffs.
whence they could direct a withering
fire.
Burnside sent forward the I'd Mary
land and the 9Th New Hampshire In
fantry in double line of fours. They
charged across the bridge with fixed
bayonets. They were met with such
q shower of musketry and artillery
that they were forced to retire with
the loss of more than half their men,
bers. Burnside then brought up
battery to cover the advance and
under its protection the 51st New York
and the 51st Pennsylvania Regiments
went over. The Confederates made
a final stand for the day in an old
apple orchard. The Confederate
troops of A. p. Hill, after their clean
up Of Harpers Ferry, arrived. They
moved through cornfield dressed in
blue uniforms which they had cap
tured there. The Northern troops,
mistaking them for comrades, let
them approach until they started to
fire. Then once more darkness fell
upon the battlefield.
The next day there was only desIl-
tory fighting and skirmishing. Both
armies were exhausted. They spent
the day burying the dead and caring
for their wounded. Mcclellan in
tended to renew the battle the next
day, but when the sun rose on Sep
tember 10 he found that Lee. under
cover of darkness, had withdrawn
across the Potomac. His own forces
were too exhausted to follow.
1t was for this failure, as well as
for the supposed slowness with which
the attack was launched on the 18th,
that caused Lincoln to remove Nc
Clellan from the command OF the
Army Of the Potomac.
