meful Tariff—falsely called protective —shall have been done away with, and our manufacturers shall produce superior articles at less cost of raw material, we shall begin to compete with European countries in all the markets of the world; and the competition in manufactures will become as keen as it is now beginning to be in agriculture. In some such way as this, I believe, the industrial development of the English race outside of Europe will by-and-by enforce federalism upon Europe. It may after many more ages of political experience become apparent that there is really no reason, in the nature of things, why the whole of mankind should not constitute politically one huge federation. I believe that the time will come when such a state of things will exist upon the earth.

their number dead on Geary's front; also 100 prisoners and several hundred small-arms. The National loss was 416 killed and wounded. This result secured a safe communication for supplies for the Nationals between Bridgeport and Chattanooga. An amusing incident occurred during the battle. When it began, about 200 mules, frightened by the noise, dashed into the ranks of Wade Hampton's legion and produced a great panic. The Confederates supposed it to be a charge of Hooker's cavalry, and fell back at first in some confusion. The incident inspired a mock-heroic poem, in six stanzas, in imitation of Tennyson's Charge of the light brigade at Balaklava, one verse of which was as follows: Mules to the right of them— Mules to the left of them— Mules all behind them— Pawed, neighed, and thundered; Map of the region of the battle of Wauhatchie. Breaking their own confines— Breaking through Longstreet's lines, Testing chivalric spines, Into the Georgia lines Stormed the two
