Red River Campaign. ^TTE»'-«0.y^;"- On the morning of " Aprflf&lSth the 'Infantry began to arrive at Alexandria, the cavalry excepting one light detich* ment covering them m they withdrew from the Cane Rtver towards the town, and on the aftMnooe of that day and the morning of the 26th I was on duty at a point wtertnea 1 could see that grand column of veteran infantry. As cach brigade division and corps wended its way along end took posi­ tion In and near th<t town, I gazed long and thoughtfully On the moving mass and their battle flags as they danced in the sunligtrt«f those April days. Maay of these regiments I had seen.before in the beauty of their dis­ cipline and the grarfcVur of , their strength, when their silk flags kissed the breeie unblemished, and their youthful races glowed with life and vigor and hope. But tile page a tit was now changed. The precise military step had shifted to % long careless stride, and all that ItMild embellish and beautify, was now unsightly and worn. Even" the black-mounted ran. lion reflected a cheerless hue. There were dismantled caisiAit and broken wheels as well as maimed horses at|<l skeleton cannonters. Ofe battery that onco had numbered elgkiy men, now mustered seventeen. Bat there were other changes that rclected a shade of sadness^ but not «f humiliation. Kim's Boston BatterjT. the Chicago battery, and two othfr batteries were captured by the^Pontfetlerates at Mans- fleld. Here were other guns to fill their place*, but to tie they did not till the places of the lost guns. We lost twenty-lour guns at. Mansfield, and captured thirty-six a%> Pleasant Hill. There were regiments of infantry that two yeitrs before had mustered eight htuuiFcd to una iiHHinnu men. Th® same regiments varied In strength from thirty-three men to three hun­ dred (sad commentary on military service} yet although great had been th4 sacrifice, the ottering of blood must still be given and the tears of the orphan still must floft. The greater p»rt, c< the Union army took poatetwwc* t of the town. They were posted in order of battle, and every precaution taken to be ready to respond at a moment's notiee to the first warning roll of the drum. A strong force of Confederates under General Major established themselves near Governor Moore's plantation, and one wing ot their ar­ my rested near Marksville Rebel mounted infantry and bushwhackers occupied the country over the river north of Alexandria, and west of us the air waa grey with rebs, but they were more wary and lees demonstrative than about Grand £ Core. This cam­ paign was indeed teaching boys late from the plow the art of war. The Red River was very low, and a little west of the town was a sharp fall or rapid*, and on account of the low water it was impassible for our heav­ iest craft, mostly gun boats, without risk of foundering in the rapids. But this danger was averted by the native genius of one Captain Bailey, of the 4th Wisconsin Volunteers a name since become familiar to every Union soldier who participated in that cam­ paign. Captain Bailey proceeded to construct a series of jetties or dams above tb« rapids, and the gun-boats and other craft passed safely through tbe wild waters and anchored in the stream below. Several^steamers had been converted into hospital boats. One of the best fitted of thU class was the Laurel Hill, a large river passenger boat, and this boat was laden to its ut­ most capacity with wounded and suf­ fering soldiers, and a largo hospital neur the river was full to overflowing. The great tents flying the green flag covered the busiest, as well as the most agonizing and heart-rending ex­ periences gleaned from the omnipres­ ent angel of death. M. M. C. (To be Continued.) Reekiem Congressional Demagogues. The careless, reckless conduct of Congressional demagogues is thus depicted by the New York Timet, in the pension business, iu which an utter indifference to the rights of tax payers was evinced: "The facts in the history of the Arrears of Pensions Act are such as might very well engage the attention of legislators. When the bill was orig­ inally introduced into Congress^ esti­ mates were submitted as to the prob­ able amount which it would draw from the Treasury. The one generally ac­ cepted was WO,000,000; the highest was 960,000.000. The Commissioner of Pensions ndw puts the amount for arrears on claim6 actually pending at 9235,000,000, and the total amount ul­ timately Involved Is variously esti­ mated at from 9350.000,000 to 9500,000 - 000. There is clearly something wrong in a system of the management of public affairs which makes so gross a mistake as this possible. What would be thought of any business corporation whose Pirectors should obli­ gation supposed to be for 930,000, an:] which should prove to be for $100,000? It would be said that its management was either corrupt or^blunderlng, and tt would forfeit the confidence of all who had any dealings with it. Yet the great corporation which we call the United States is involved In such an expenditure, and Its most Impor­ tant body of trustees spend a fort­ night In discussing It with apparently no conception of the fa<ct that the whole system ofWhlch they are a part and themselves In particular, are dis­ credited by such a state of affairs. The matter Is regarded aimost exclu­ sively from a sentimental point of view. No notice Is taken of the seri­ ous defect iu our government methods which allows an act so important to be passed without the possession by either Rouse of Congress or by the Executivo of any adequate Informa­ tion In regard to Its effect. No sug­ gestion is made as to the remedying of the defect. On the contrary, occasion is taken to propose another act relating to the Mexican War, with no precau­ tion whatever to prevent the repetU tlon on a smaller scale of equally un­ guarded legislation. < From the World and Citizen Soldier. Pol It leal but Non-Partisan. A new soldiers' organization has re- cently been perfected in Washington, under the title of the Solulers' auJ 8aHors* National League. The pur­ pose ot the association Is to insure mutual benefit to the brave defenders of our country, to promote fraternal regard among them, to Insure atten­ tion to just demands, to iusure for its members such recognition as was earned by suffering, privation, danger and impaired health; tn provide for re-unions and the burial of deceased comrades, to aid each other in business pursuits,to alleviate the distress of soldiers' and sailors' widows and or­ phans, and procure for deserving com­ rades employment under Federal and State Government or elsewhere. The genera! purpose of tho League is to endeavor to enforce the execution of Section 1754, Revised Statutes of the Uulted States, which reads as follows: Persons honorably discharged from the military or naval service, by rea­ son of disability resulting from wounds or sickness incurred in the line of duty, shall he preferred for appointments to civil ofHces, provided thvy are found to possess the business capacity necessary Tor the proper discharge "of Ike <d»tl*s of such offices. In organization lies political strength, anH we can but commend this feature of tho new organization, in thus creating a political power which shall be non-partisan, or. in other words, not committed to either political party, and which is, there­ fore, ready to throw its strength to the side that is committed to the In­ terests of soldiers, making these in­ terests an issue ot a campaign. Each county in each State has one comrade known as a soout, and is appointed to obtain secret cognizance of party con­ ditions iu the interests of the League. Iu the District of Columbia are one hundred soouts who report .to the Grand Council removals of soldiers from office, all cases of nepotism in­ dulged in to so great an extent and the favoritism and abuse of public po- sltion by proniluent officials; while to prevent all possibility ot such favor­ itism oi» their own part. It is decreed in the League Constitution that No comrade or member of the League shall be eligible to office who holds a position under the United States Government or under any State Government, by electiou or appoint­ ment. This precludes the possibility of officials in the League being subsidized by favors under the Government, which in a measure would preveut the effic­ ient work of the League. It Is said that the organization now numbers over three thousand and is rapidly on the iucrease. The . Leaguo has ob­ tained some interesting and authentic information in regard to nepotism In the Departments, they having a com­ plete list of all appointments. The' publication of this list will be a great surprise to the general public which has no knowledge of* the mysterious chain of relationship sometimes exist­ ing between so many Government employees. There is one family which isVepresented in the Departments by twenty-five different members. An­ other family numbers some fifteen ap­ pointees. and the only service they have rendered tbe Government has not been by carryiug the musket, but in drawing good salaries In sinecure positions iu the Government Depart­ ments. Wa*t Make* the Difference? Why is it that a certain class of netv6paper» which are so ceaseless In their wails over the vast sums of money paid out in pensions, have never a word to offer in way of regret over the sums paid in. interests to the bond holders, though the latter is about five times as much as the former? Is it because the money paid to the pensioners goes at once into circula­ tion. while that paid to the bond hold­ ers is largely squandered In foreign countries-or locked up in bank vaults and thus lost to onr trade and com­ merce? Do these "Mourners" prefer that the money should be thus sent put of the cftuntrj anil ayenuca of trade, or Is It because they regard the slaims of tli* bond holders so much more sacred than those of the Invalid soldiers to their pensions? Is It be­ cause the money paid to the bond holder does the newspaper man more good, than that paid to the pensioner? We notiee, too, that these same pape"** which are so Serrlbly cut np over the squandering of the ptfblic revenues on the disabled soldiers, are In no way alarmed, nor have they a word of protest to enier when tho public domain is given away to pow­ erful monopolies by the millions of acres. Aaeedote of fnMnt KtaeOta During the war an army paymaster In full regimentals attended one of President Lincoln's receptions and up­ on being Introduced, said: "Being here, Mr. Lincoln, I thought I'd call and pay my respects." **From the complaints of the soldiers," responded the President, "I guess that's about all my of yon do pay HOI.L CALL. "Corporal Green?" the orderly cried. •'Here! was th» aaswer loud and olear, From the lips of the soldier who stood near: And "Herel" was the word the utt replied. "Cyrus Drew!**--then alienee fell-- This time no answer followed the call; Only hU rear man htd seen him Ml, Killed or wounded, he could not telL Theie they stood In the foiling light. These men of battle, with grave, dark looks, as plain to be read as open books While slowly gathered the shades of night. The fern on the hillside wa* slashed with blood, Aad down in the eorn where the popples grew, Were redder Stains than the popples knew; And crira*on-dy«d was the river's flood. For the foe had crossed from the other aide That day is the face of a munleriag Are, That swept them down in its terrible ire, And their life blood went to color the tide. "Ilerbert Kine!" At the call there came Two stalwart soldiers into the line, Bearing betweeu them this Herbert Kline, Wounded and bleeding, to answer his name. "Esra Kerr!"--and a voice answered, "Here!" "Hiram Kerrl"--but no man replied. They were brothers, these two; the|nd wind sighed. And a shudder crept through the eotafeld near. "Kphriam Deanel"--then a soldier epoke: "Deane carried our regiment's colors," he said; "Where our easlgn was shot I let him dead. Just after the enemy wavered and broke. "Close to the roadside hii body lies; I paused a moment end gave him a drink; Me murmared his it ether'§ name, t think, yVHiM fel# Twas a victory, yes, but it cost us death-- for that company's roll, when called that night, Of a hundred men who wtqt into the light' Numbered but twenty who an* w cred "Here!" . r* i --. I®-The apportionment matter was before congress Wednesday In large shape.' The Tribune this morning con­ tains A lengthy dispatch upon the sub­ ject where I u it says: "In the course of an excellent speech u|k>n the bill, Mr, Sherwin, of Illinois, said that:the first five apportionments were made under what Is now oalled "the new method." and while that method was approved by such men as Washington, Jefferson, and Randolph he recognized the fact that this house would not adopt It, and he 'thirefore, devoted himself to a consideration of the total number of representation to be fixed upon. Opposing 316 of a number which would give the southern Democratic states au advantage of three, and admitting, tba|i 319 would do exact justlee as between political parties. Mr. Sherw'n said that, con­ sidering that the old method would be adopted, he belived that justice and the new and growing states of Kansas, Iowa and Wisconsin demand that each should have an additional representa­ tive, This, however, would give tbe Republicans the same political advan­ tage that 316 would give to the Demo­ crats. By increasing the total number to 325, however, the political balance would again be restored, because the additional members would go to the states of South Carolina, Texas and New York, the additional New York* representative going either to New York city or Brooklyn, both of which are Democratic, tie, therefore, advo­ cated 335." It Is understood by all who have studied the apportionment subject why so many different members have been advocated in this apportionment mat­ ter. There are several different methods of apportioning,aud the num­ ber to be definitely settled upoii depend upon tha mothods to be adopted.-^ Congressman Cox favored at first the 301 then 307 and now 319. Congressman Sherwin has under these several cir­ cumstances, favored 319,3JJ and 335. 11 Is qui te probable, howe ve r, that the method and the bill advocated in the number 322 will be adopted, though 325 would be best should the latter method be determined upon,--Elgin Envoy. Later--The House of Representa­ tives on Thursday last passed the Ap­ portionment bill. Undoubtedly the Senate will concur. It is a matter peculiarly within the jurisdiction of the House. Only once in the history of the United States has the Senate refused to adopt the apportionment agreed upon by the Uousa. The present bill is fair. It places the total number of the members at 325. The present membership is 293, an increase of 32. In this apportionment matter the Fourth District has just cause to feel yroud of her Representative. Pleklo for Curing Meat. A large amount of beef, pork andf mutton Is lost to farmers evwy se*v son by not being perfectia£c«trwft.-^ Every year a large linmlw^ are published in agriou|Mnl yajpif# for curing meat, some of Which ar* valuable. Some thirty years ago tWl Gertnantowu CP", leleyraph published a recipe that was tried by a larg«r number of people and highly mended. The next year It waa rw* published with like results. wherenpoflT < the paper fell into the hab!t of publish" Ing it every season, and It claims feat no person has ever tried it for eating beef, pork, mutton, tongue, or hemi and ever afterward cured meat la anf other manner with satisfaction t* himself. The following Is a reprint of the famous recipe: X To one gallon of water take one an# a half pounds of salt, one-half ponn4 of sugar, one-half ounce saltpetre, one* half ounce potash. Use only a purf, article of potash; If this cannot obtained.omit It altogether. In thlJl ratio the pickle can be Increased to an|^ quantity desired. Let these be boile# together until all the dirt from th# sugar rises te the top aad 1s sklsmsf off. then throw It Into ft tub to oeol, and when cold, pour it over your beef •r pork. The moat aaost be well " covered with pickle, and should not bo " put down for at least two days after killing, during which time It should M- slightly sprinkled with powde«*< saltpetre which removes, all surlacO blood, etc., leaving the meat fresh an# clean. Some omit boiling the p!dt!i|^ and find It to answer well, though th* the operation of boiling purifies tM fickle by throwing oft the dirt alway* to be found in salt and sugar. If thUt recipe ie strictly followed, it will rs> quire a single trial to prove itf.- superiority over the common way, or- nest ways, of putting down meat, an# will not soon be abandoned for anjf other. The meat is unsurpassed foif sweetueee, delicacy and freshness of color. MVTtte following statement the total population of Alabama^ Arizona.
