In that army, says # contemporary history, ‘‘was neither mercy nor remorse. All women were their prey; they dew old inen and children for amusement; their camp was a scene of such debauchery as cannot be described, from commander to private. They were given over to sin and sold wholly to Satan.” At the sack of Magdeburg, May 20, 1629. Tilly's army massacred all, without distinction of age or sex, and reduced the place to ashes. The soldiers of Louis XIV were a little better, and but little. They desolated the whole Palatine region and scattered the people. The ‘Pennsylvania Dutch” are descendants of soine of these exiles. Inthe Napoleonic wars the French lost in battle about 875,000 men, and over a million by exposure and disease. The youth were so exhausted that the physical standard was lowered, and the French have never sigce been as tall or strovg as éther peoplés. And all these horrors, be it noted, were but of yesterday—there are people yet alive who can remember the last of them. In the older wars it was far worse. A party which crossed Ireland just after the Geraldine war reported that for 120 miles at one stretch they heard not the lowing of a cow nor the hainan voice, save that from one hovel issued a feeble, piteous wail, and on entering they saw a starved infant trying to draw nourishment from the breast of its dead mother. Trype itis that there are still too many standing armies, but war is afterall the exception and the non-combatants are spared. All the civilized world is far more humane. The wounded of both sides receive surgical treatment far better than kings could command a century ago. lt is anvueh-the same in civil life, “The poorest child of misfortune that is crushed in the street, the poorest laborer ‘who falls from a scaffold, is sure of nursing and surgery of the best.

All modern are in the linéof blew given by the wealthiest man in New York or London or Paris would be resented by the poorest with as much assurance of the law’s aid as if their con‘ditions were reversed. Indeed there are those who complain that we have gone to the other extreme, and that juries habitually favor the poor, the simple and the untitled, the widow as against the corporation, the orphan as employer. Wealth still has great power, but more and more every year it finds its acfactories, etc., but to the middle millinventions, nearly, The ancients excelled in-works of the times have been—when mankind was fully justified in refusing to be content, for surely it cannot be-that Infinite Wisdom desires misery; there ever Was an era when the human race could that in the short interval “between the. killed on_the battlefield were boiled -to . = ments.

In that army, says # contemporary history, ‘‘was neither mercy nor remorse. All women were their prey; they dew old inen and children for amusement; their camp was a scene of such debauchery as cannot be described, from commander to private. They were given over to sin and sold wholly to Satan.” At the sack of Magdeburg, May 20, 1629. Tilly's army massacred all, without distinction of age or sex, and reduced the place to ashes. The soldiers of Louis XIV were a little better, and but little. They desolated the whole Palatine region and scattered the people. The ‘Pennsylvania Dutch” are descendants of soine of these exiles. Inthe Napoleonic wars the French lost in battle about 875,000 men, and over a million by exposure and disease. The youth were so exhausted that the physical standard was lowered, and the French have never sigce been as tall or strovg as éther peoplés. And all these horrors, be it noted, were but of yesterday—there are people yet alive who can remember the last of them. In the older wars it was far worse. A party which crossed Ireland just after the Geraldine war reported that for 120 miles at one stretch they heard not the lowing of a cow nor the hainan voice, save that from one hovel issued a feeble, piteous wail, and on entering they saw a starved infant trying to draw nourishment from the breast of its dead mother. Trype itis that there are still too many standing armies, but war is afterall the exception and the non-combatants are spared. All the civilized world is far more humane. The wounded of both sides receive surgical treatment far better than kings could command a century ago. lt is anvueh-the same in civil life, “The poorest child of misfortune that is crushed in the street, the poorest laborer ‘who falls from a scaffold, is sure of nursing and surgery of the best.

Once more, therefore, “let’s think on our marcies.” J. H. Brapiz, Female Monkeys Sacrificed to Science.
