" at(TtXIG.«N'if OUl BKfilMKUTi We presume that among the readers of the FI.AIKDEALER'S Soldlem' De pai tment may be some of the survivors of the 33d Illinois Volunteers, better known as "Col. Mulligan's Regiment,' a:ui tiierefor^ give place here to an order from the General of the Army that will give great satisfaction to the memlters or'that gallant corps. It will be remembered that this regiment Was captured by the Confederate for. ces under General Price In the fall of 1861. and the individual member* of the regiment were afterward paroled, with the exception of Col. JfuHIgan who refused to acoept the ternH of the jVarole^ He *va« afterward exchanged. When Col. Mulligan returned to th« Union Lines hts regiment had dla- solved, and Its members Ir^J been mus­ tered out of tho service by order of General Fremont, commanding the Western Department. After making « journey to Washington, Col. Mulligan procured an order rescinding th) de­ partmental order and continuing the regiment In the service. I'Uis order provided that aM officert and men re­ turning would be considered an having been continuously In tho service. And #ecelve pay and bounty. In the mean­ time, however, % number of the men had joined other, commands, and al­ most an entire company had joined the sixty-ninth New York,an IrUh or­ ganization. In ituki'igup t)ja rolls or the 23d Illinois, it was neues*ai-y class all absent parties as deserters, nnd tills stigma hits rested on all those serving In other commands until now, except iu a number of iiidividluU in­ stances. where speclel orders have been issued to meet their cases. An order has been issued through tb<* War Department,a$ st*tp<), Vhlcli re­ moves the disability and odinm from all serving In otlw commands. The Q}*d»r reads^s follows: 1IK4I/QIJ4RTERS OF THE ARMY, AD jyT^NTGKNE^i^'S OfpiCE, WASHING TON. M4Y 11,--Special Ordep Jfq, 108-- Extract--Par. 4.

War Department, Adjutant General's offlov) are recognixed. The officers and men, provided they return to the regime^ will be considered as continuously iu the service from the date they were originally mustered In. Col, Mulligan is authorized to fill up Ids regiment to the maximum standard of an infantry regiment :js prescribed by law. By order Gen. tthenpjui. li. C. Uif^u, Adjutant Gei>oral. Adjutant General Drum, in forward­ ing the order to the Adjutant General of this State, supplements it with a letter in which he states: "It will be ob«erFed that this order recognizes the action of Geneva! Freuioift in dis­ charging the enlisted men, bpt does not repognize his course in having dis­ banded the regimoHtftl organization. By tljis amended autiou the regiment and commissioned officers, &re regarded as in service from its original muster- in up to the date of its final muster-out on July'i4, 1865$ the ei)ljst*?d men as pontiu^oiisly in se'vice from the date of the if enlistment to the date of their filial dl&charge, whether such Anal dis­ charge was on the Sth, 9th and 10th of October, 184), or at auy other subse­ quent date, thu» inferentlaily remov­ ing any pharges of desertion growing out of {.lie transaction in question, ft is proper to st^te, however that the Gofr((>rnM!i'nt reserves the right to pass upon any question of bounty that may at any time arise under this action, op that may bo in any maimer affected 1>J' it." The members of the regiment who served in other commands will, iu con­ sequence, be deemed to h.iye per­ formed continuous service, the chargo of desertion is removed, and the men be entitled to fcontinuuqi' p.iy aud bounty, as though no sqrreljder lu»d occurred. A copy of the original mus­ ter rolls of the regiment ha« been fur- plslied to the Adjtwnt General of Illinois, and l^no^ron tile at the State Capital. It is the intention (p call a meeting of the survivors pf tlw regi­ ment in Chicago at an early day, a@*Says Emerson: "Society under­ goes continual changes; it Is barbarous it is civilized, jt is Christianized, it is rich, it Is scientific; but this chansce is not amelioration.' For everything that is given 6omethi»g is ta^en. So­ ciety acquires uev arts, and loses o;d instincts. The civilized man has buUt a coach, but has lost the use of his feet; he has a fine Geneva watch, but cmnof tell the hour by the snn." The question, therefore, whether civiliza­ tion is ^ benefit tp inaukiud. appears to come to this--whether what is gained by it is of uiqfe thai) wllich Isjiost. HAGNiriVRNT SPIKCTAOLK.

Food Is thrown to the animal every day in 4 paper bag from the bank, more than 300 feet above. As |t strikes the ground the bag bursts open and tho dog devours its contents. This singular operation is watched by a large number of people every day. Clifford KaibQeisuh, the railroad ticket agent at the place, has devised a plan for rescuing the dog, of which he ho|>e8 to make a trial soon, After the animal has been left without food for two or three days and Is famished, a bag with a spring attached to it and containing a piece of meat will be let down. It Is expected tlpic when the dog seizes the meat, the spring will close upon htm, and he will be drawn up in a bag to the bank above. Wonderi or the Microscope.
