for articles that you produce has been so great us
to raise their price to that point where ample re

Then, again, you have been amply protected in
your property, and in the pleasuref of yo»r home
and family,

your abundance. After doing all, and giving all
we can, we shall still owe a debt to our country's
defenders that nothing but the gratitude of unborn
generations can repay.

and it is expected that the aggregate of the dona

tho faithful historian shall oome to make up the

Tho agents of this'fcumano commission have al

of battle whilo the smoko of tho dreadful fray was
yot surging in thick clouds above it, to minister to
