papers on the army of Tennessee, and of the replies that have been called forth, furnishes an opportunity to settle some of the disputed matters appertaining to the campaigns and battles of that army. There are a number about which there is much conflict of statement—too many, in fact, to be grouped in one enquiry. I shall, therefore, as a commencement, select one of sufficient interest to call forth comment, and I hope discussion. I will go backto the number of your journal published April and May, 1883. In that issue is an article from General Will. T. Martin, of Miss., headed A Defence of General Bragg's Conduct at Chickamauga.

The Indian question. Read at the meeting in Boston, May, 1883, for the consideration of the condition of the Indians in the United States. Amesbury, 4th mo., 1883. I regret that I cannot be present at the meeting called in reference to the pressing question of the day, the present condition and future prospects of the Indian race in the United States. The old policy, however well intended, of the government is no longer available. The westward setting tide of immigration is everywhere sweeping over the lines of the reservations. There would seem to be no power in the government to prevent the practical abrogation of its solemn treaties and t
