A Rowan correspondent to the
Charlotte Observer says he is
going to have a hen at the State
Confederate Army.
Statistics in the War Depart
ment at Washington show that
the foreigners and negroes alone
in the Federal army during the
war largely outnumbered the
whole confederate forces from
first to last; The figures are :
Union army, 2,700,000 men, of
whom 500,000 were foreigners
and 178,000 negroes, the for
eigners and negroes combined
making 678,000. The ' Confed
erate army numbered less than
600,000.
Commenting on this the Alex
andria Gazette well says :
t trpjjQ - m0re that is known
about the war the more glorious
appears the magnificient heroism
and endurance of the men who
wore the gray. That they should
have defeated in so many bat
tles and withstood for four
years an army so large that even

What's the matter with Hanna?
Why nothing if that Philadelphia
dispatch is reliable. A locomo
tive struck her and knocked her
twenty feet into a field and did
not hurt her.
Gen. Wheeler got a little taste
of war at Porac but there was
no opportunity of distinction as
the enemy did not stand. We
shall expect little' from him till
the fighting season opens.
Many a man boasts of being
self made when other people
think he has little in the job of
which to be proud.
its contingent of over two mil
lion native born soldiers, . is al
most incredible, but facts cannot
be successfully refuted."
This is all the more striking,
too, wlien it is remembered that,
according to the Pension Office
statistics over 600,000 Northern
soldiers were disabled, thereby
showing that every one of the
600, 000 left his mark. Richmond
Dispatch.
The Negro in Southern Illinois
Rev. R P Howell, presiding
elder of the Murphysboro Dis
trict, in & private note to the ed
itor of the Advocate, speaks of
the recent troubles in which six
negroes ; were killed, at Carter-
ville in that State and says:
'There is great excitement, all
over tne county, ana wniie
write this the blue-coats of the
Filipinos Bring In Fourteen.
The Filipinos made good their
promise last Saturday morning
n delivering fourteen American
prisoners under flag of truce at
Angeles. Gen. Alejandrino and
and two other officers entered
the American lines and were es
corted to M anilla. Strangely
enough the men say they were
well treated after a short period
at first. They came in well
dressed in light blue Filmino
x
uniforms with canvass shoes and
hats. In prison they received
rice only at first but upon their
complaint they were given cof
fee, hot rolls, chicken, pork, veg
etables and wine Beside they
received an allowance of twenty
cents a day for tobacco and
luxuries. On Sept. 17 there was
a feast and Agninalda gave each
prisoner $4,00. Later each re
ceived $3.50. They were not
required to work.
The truce party said that
twenty -five more would be re
leased soon. Gen. Otis tele
graphs that Gen. Garcia, the
commander of the troops in
eastern Mindanao in a commu
nication dated the 12th. expressed
a desire to turn the government
over to the United States and
surrender the insurgent's arms.
