Lieutenant 'leorge. C. IU>un4, a vetotan of
Hie Union Army, who believes that a na?
tional park should bo established at Ma
nassas without further delay, similar to
those at Outtyshurs. Chick.tmauga anil other
?joints where battles v uro fought between
tho Union and Confederate armies.
The battles o< the rtrst and second Ma
nassns were among the most bloody of the
entire four years jf the Civil War; hun?
dreds of men wearing ooth the blue and
gray gave up their lives for their country,
as historical accounta of those days grimly
I la now proposed] by Lieutenant

It.. a- well ns many men who foughi on
the Confederate side, to establish a suit?

n total of .six commissioner, fop ihe two

men and three Confederates,
It Is understood that Senator Martin, of
Virginia, will bo naked to press th* Manas

The last "blue and gray" day at Mariet?
