Reminiscences Suggested by the Itecent Military l'unlihnielit nt Homestead. Tho punishment of Private lams Is de nounced as "mediaeval torture." Let us see how mediaeval it is. Gen. Butler is reported as dreadfully shocked at tho action ot tho commanders of the Pennsyl vania militia. It is not worth while to alludo to the moro brutal episodes in that gentleman's career. Letus tako an illus tration of his moro playful methods of discipline, told by himself In "Butler's Book," page 812. Tho Ninth Connecticut Keglment was sent to Gon. Butlor, then recruiting at Lowoll. It was mainly made up of Irishmen Just recruited, unarmed and tomowhat wild, with a propensity for climbing out of camp for a lark. This is tho philanthropist's story: "There was around our camp a board fence, some nine feet high. I put the usual number of tentrios on the lusido, but I doubled tho number outsido tho fenco. I directed the officer of tho guard to instruct his sontrics on tho inside not to have any quarrel or trouble with tho men unloss thoy were attackod. But tho picked guard on tho outtide were instructed, whenovor they stw a man swinging his body ovor tho fence, to poke him back with their bayonets, using tho bayonet on that part of him whoro thoy would havo tho most room, and to do it cflectually." A guard who put back on the point of his bayonet tho first man who tried to climb over thoienco was promoted next day to bo a Sorgeant, and tho tender-hoartod Gen. Butler paraded the rogiment and tald : "Now, my men, I am going to put a guard to-night around this fenco with muskets loaded with ball oartridge, and if any of you attempt to get over the fence that way again I will make tho man who flrtt shoots ono of you a Lieutenant." These things aro to bo remetnborod to be deplored. They recall how ovil a thing strife is, oven to its remote details and minor incidonts, and how dangerous it may bo to communities to put aside rev erence for tho civil law with its safeguards and appeal to arms. An army is organized forco; its purpoeo is coercion; its methods aro fierce and bloody. It accomplishes its duty with suffering and preserves Its dis cipline by arbitrary authority. lams had to be punishod, for ho was a disobedient and disloyal soldier; wo do not like tho first item of his punishment, how ovor justified by precedent; nono tho loss wo aro convinced that tho great clamor raised in his behalf is insincere It is not due to sympathy for lams so much as sympathy for his opinions.
