out the country from the Atlantic to
the Pacific from the Lakes to the Gulf
Scattered thus from one section of the
Union to the other it is brought into
close contact with all parties and its
make up estimated from many and

majority of ciyilians and for no other
refasou than that they wear a blue coat
the uniform f thehation a arb 61
honor of which they are toud not
withstanding the silent contempt of
many sneering oaes 4vOf coiirse -they
are not all saints neither Jarerthey all
sinners Few of them indeed walk
their rounds witli their Bibles open
and tewer quote scripture to make a
telling point still they are as -a class
Godfearing moral and upright and
those who thwishtlessly point fae fin-
gerof contempt trad scorn t the
American soldier because he is a
soldier only add odium to their own
harrow- mitidedhess and betray ignor
ance of an institution that since its
iriceptiou after Lexington has been the
bulwark of oiir nation The army of
