The conlial greeting wo received, the kindugss beatowed upou us, sud tho respoct shown to our uniforins, was something so near to us that T for one will ever remember my tour of duty in Chicago as one of pleasure and grati- Geatlon. After the War of tho Rebellion had ended, the grand army of tho Unfon had disbanded, and it members returned to thelr Lomes in peace, the swall baud of mien constituting the regular army of the United Btatea soon began to fecl that they wero not Jooked upon with favor by the people. The public press abuscd us, called us fdters and tox-caters, and it becaine fashion. able to write and talk of the usclessnces of an arwy, sume gofng so far as to attempt to demonstrate that In s Republie there shonld Lo no regularly-employed troops . In timo of peace with ™ forelgn wers, Our hard marches over the plajus and mountalus of the central continent, our murderous contlicts with their savagy residents, wero troated with con- tempt, and fong artieles were written and pub- lished to show how mtich better sueh work could hodono by citizens temporarily Eln&llnynd tor tho purpose. To such an extrume Liad this feels fug extended, 5o unpovular had we become, that, when proposing to cnjoy a leava of ab- senco from our frontier duties, and visit our homea and friends, ono of our first acts would bo to purchase a sult of atizen's clothing, to travel atul bo scen by tho Eennlu in, to conceal our fdentity.

But with the rapidity 6f a trausformation- seenc fn o pantomime our statns appeared to bo cutirely changed by the Communistle rlots last summer, In Chicaro last July, for the first time in ten years, I wore my uniform publicly in an Eastern clty, and I did it with pleasure.

Whila recelving the gencrous hospitality of your titizens Who were pleased to compliment our actions whiu with you, Lhad conversations with somé of your promincnt men of both the great political parties in regard to tho army, ‘They nalds *This scttles the matter as to the army ; the poople understand it better now; it will” never bo reduced againg it will bo in- creased,” ote,, cte. 1 tuld themn then they were inistakeni that, while It must be admitted thut the respousible eltizens of the country, without distinctfon of party, recognized the necessity for o tralned and ro- liablc furee ns consurvators of the peace, party discipline would force the Yruscnt army to the wall, 80 that a new one could by formed, The recent legislation in Coneress, or rather thé discussion upon the legislation, confirms iny statement, The Democratic party 1s controlled ‘by its large Bouthicru element, and the South wants o uew army. 1t would be safe to eay that not five members of Congress from the South- crit Btates really botleve that an army of 25,000 men 18 large enougl for this faimense country with its many disturblng elements in fts midst and ndjoluing {t; they want o larer army than do the ple of the North, but they. want tholr own puu{)ln to com- [ it.
