The Forces That Fought the
Civil War.

THE UNION AND CONFEDERATE.

The Southern Volunteers and Conscripts.
Rally of the North at the Call of Presi-
dent Lincoln—Organization and Equip-
ment.

The surrender of Lee’s command at Appo
mattox, April 9, 1865, was taken as a signal
for all the distant forces to follow the ex-
ample. During the month of April and up to
May 26, forces varying from 1,000 to 20,000,
and amounting to nearly 150,000, laid down
their arms, the last being the Trans-Missis-
sippi Army under E. Kirby Smith. Smith
surrendered about 20,000 men on the 26th.
On the 13th of April Secretary of War Stan-
ton ordered the enrollment of volunteers dis-
continued. The disbandment of Union troops
began April 2-9, three days after Johnston
surrendered to Sherman, and the great armies
of both sides were soon reduced to masses of
citizens.

In April, 1801, the United States army
numbered about 16,000 men. The force com-
prised five regiments of artillery, six of
cavalry and nine
teen of infantry,
/ and was broken up
' into small detach:
ments and posted
across the country
from coast to coast.
The states that con-
tributed to the Con
federate army were
fourteen in num-
ber, and their ag-
gregate population,
including slaves,
was about 12,000,-
000. The states of
t h e Confederacy

 

number. The north-
western counties of
Vir g i n i a seceded
from the old state
and joined the
Union, and the east

nessee adhered to
the Union cause. The border slave states,
Maryland, Missouri and Kentucky, supplied
soldiers for both armies. The population of.
the slave states included about 4,000,000
slaves, and the free states of the Union had a
population of about 20,000,000 whites. The
population of the north was largely increased
by serviceable material during the war
through immigration, while that of the south
decreased through the constant emigration of
those subject to military duty who were not
in sympathy with the Confederacy.

After deducting the slaves and the white
population of the border states who did not
unite with the Confederates, and the refugees,
the south had probably less than 5,000,000
people, and put about 1,000,000 men into the
field, or at least had them under arms. This
estimate includes local troops. The north,
with its 20,000,000 population, to which should
I), kadded white and black refugees from the
south who contributed soldiers, and the im-
migrants, put about 2,250,000 men into the
field, and at the close of the war had about
that number of civilians subject to military
duty. When the war ended the north had

about 1,000,000 men in arms and the south 2:

surrendered about 175,000. The south had a
population from which to draw its armies
amountingto about one-fifth of that of the
north.

HOW IT WAS DONE.

South Carolina seceded from the Union
Dec. 20, 1860, and on the 27th and 30th of that
month Fort Moultri‘e, Castle Pinckney and
the United States arsenal at Charleston were
seized by the state authorities of South Caro
lina. One after another the remaining states,
afterward forming the Confederacy, seceded,
and as far as possible seized the forts and
arsenals within their borders. On the 4th of
February a Confederate convention assem-
bled at Montgomery, Ala., with delegates
from South Carolina, Florida, Alabama,
Georgia, Louisiana and Mississippi. Dele-
gates from Texas joined on Feb. 14. A pro

~visional congress was organized and a consti-
tation was adopted, with the election of
Davisas president. Davis appointed Leroy
Pope Walker secretary of war, and on March
1 Davis himself assumed military control of
affairs in the seceded states. The next step
was an act by the provisional congress estab
lishing an army of 100,000 men.

One of the provisions made by the Mont
gomery congress established a regular army
of 10,000 men, to be recruited from the several
states and be well ofiicered and equipped.
The troops, which were organized under the
calls for volunteers and also under the later
system of conscription, retained throughout
their state designations.

At the outset the states which were threat-
erpd with the war on their soil kept their
soldiers on an independent basis. Beaure-
gard, who was in
c o m m a n d a t

; Charleston harbor
.with a force limit-
ed to 5,000 men,
had South Carolina
troops, with a few

' volunteers f r o In
other states. He ’
acted under orders
of the Confederate
secretary of war,
and his command
was known as the
.‘Provis‘ional Army
of the Confederate
States, but the or-

_ ganizations under
him were classed as
.the'Army of South
Carolina. At Pen-

from Georgia, Alabama, Missimippi, Louisi-
ana and Florida. Louisiana maintained 'a
state army and navy until aftér the fall of

INew Orleans in 1862. Virginia seceded April
‘17, and R. E. Lee was appointed major gen-
,eralo'f the state forces on the 23d, and the
a ‘ ‘tion of state troops was carried on
{until June, 8, when," by tion, the

flint locks and had to be changed to percus-
sion caps before they could be used. There
were no armories in. the south for the manu
facture of small arms, the government manu-
factory being at Springfield, Mass, and as a.
result the Confederates were not thoroughly
equipped in this respect until they received
regular supplies from abroad. After that
time they had the advantage on many battle-
fields, for they were equipped with new En-
field rifles from the noted English armory.
The first quota of volunteers called for by,
the south, that of 100,000 in April, 1861, were
to serve twelve months, and the volunteers
under this call were the last that can be so
called. The first few months was the stage
in which “one southerner .could whip five
Yankees,” and, also, when the current opin—
ion in the south was that the war “won’t
be much of a fuss, only a frolic.” Two or
three sharp battles changed all of that, and
after the first six months the authorities were

never again harassed, as they had been dur-
ing the first thirty days, by an over supply of
volunteers. During the winter the soldiers
whose camps wére in the vicinity of their
homes were permitted to go home while there
was no fighting going on. Cavalrymen and
artillerymen owned their horses and were
sent home to recruit them or exchange them
for fresh ones. Many of these did not volun-
tarily return, and as the twelve months of
their enlistment were drawing to a. close,
some of them took the view that they would
consider the contract ended. Foreseeing the
evil, the Confederate congress prepared a
conscription act, which was approved April
16, 1862, annulling all volunteer contracts
and holding to service during the war all men
between the ages of 18 and 35.

The first call for volunteers to sustain the
Union was issued by President Lincoln April
15, 1861. It was for 75,000 militia for a serv—
ice of three months, and twenty-five states
and the District of Columbia responded with
an aggregate of over 90,000. The Twenty—
ty—seventh Pennsylvania militia reached Bal-
timore on the 19th of April without mus-
kets. The Sixth Massachusetts reached there
the same day, fully equipped, and was fol-
lowed by the Seventh New York.

The volunteers were enrolled in companies
of .100 each and elected their company om-
cers, and the companies were ordered to a
rendezvous, where
temporary q u a r-
ters were provided
in halls and bar-
racks. Here they
were formed into
regiments of ten
companies e a c h ,
and the captains
elected the field offi-
cers. The regi-
ments when com-
pleted were sworn
into the United
States service for
three months. Du-
ring the first three
months the presi-
dent issued three
more calls for
troops to serve the
United States, and
t h e re were fur-
nished under them

CONFEDERATE ZOUAVE. 700,000 men, prin-
cipally for three years. New York furnished
thirty-eight regiments, aggregating 30,000
men, for two years. The work of recruiting
went on so rapidly that by Dec. 1 the gov-
ernment had 600,000 volunteers in service.
The next call was issued at the close of the
Peninsula campaign in 1862, and was for
300,000 for three years. Over 400,000 men
were furnished. This was followed by a call
for 300,000 militia for nine months. Less
than 90,000 men responded. During the year
Congress authorized a government bounty of
$100 to all who served two years. In Octo-
her, 1863, a call was made for 300,000 men for
three years, and this was increased the fol-
lowing February to 500,000. In February,
1863, congress passed an act for enrolling and
The enrollment included all citi-
zens between 20 and 45 years of age, with
some exceptions. Substitutes, or a commu-
tation fee of $300, was permitted. In draft~
ing, the names were written on paper and
drawn from a revolving wheel. At the same
time the government bounty was increased
to $300 for raw soldiers and $400 for veter-
ans who had served nine months or more. .

Subsequent calls by the president were: For
200,000 men, March, 1884; 500,000, July, 1804,
and 300,000, December, 1864. There were
several calls for militia for various terms.

government by states is given in the follow—

COLOR. IN PHOTOGRAPHY.

REPRODUCTION OF THE BEAUTIFUI:
SHADES OF NATURE.

 

The Science‘ Still Far irum Perfect—Prog-
ress of the Orthochromatic Branch of
Photography—Color of Hair, Eyes and
Clothing Obtained.

Orthochromatic or correct color photog-
raphy is the nearest approach which photog-
raphei's have yet made toward producing the
beautiful and various color shades of nature
in the camera.‘ We can photograph the color'
values in almost a true relation, but as yet
the problem to photograph exactly the col-
ors themselves remains unsolved.

Tirhaps no other branch of photography
has received so much attention as this. N 0
other is so interesting or so full of promise.
It has been the dream of photographers to re-
produce with their cameras the beautiful
colors of nature as accurately as they are
able to depict its form and lights and shadows
ever since Daguerre, the ambitious young
scenic painter of Paris, exclaimed, on success-
fully completing his first wonderful photo-
graphic experiments: “TVhy cannot I retain
these inimitable wonders which the sun’s rays
draw to the focus of my lens? T’Vhy cannot
I fix the image, engrave it forever?”

Experiments have been numerous and con-
tinuous inthis direction ever since the birth
of photography, fifty-one years ago. Often
it has been announced that at last the great
secret was discovered, but always to result
only in disappointment, for as yet there has
been found no way by which the colors them-
selves can be photographed.

SOME ADVANCEMENT.

., Much has been accomplished, however,'

even if the natural colors themselves cannot,
as yet, be exactly reproduced by lens and dry
plate. We can photograph yellow, green
and red so that they can easily be distin-
guished in the finished picture, whereas, for-
merly, no difference whatever could be seen
between these colors in the photograph. In
like manner, blue, violet and indigo may now
be photographed so that a difference is shown
in color values, instead of reproducing them
all perfectly white, which was formerly the
case. 1

A bright yellow color on the old ordinary
plate was always photographed a dull black,
and very dark and dull blues would appear
clear whites, though in the natural subject
they were much darker than the yellow,
which appeared quite black in the photo-
graph. This unique result was obtained on
the old plate because yellow, like green and
red, are non-actinic, or photographically in-
active colors, while blue and the colors at the
other end of the spectrum are very powerful
in actinic rays. '

It therefore happened that the non-actinic
colors, whether bright or dull, impressed the
sensitive plate but feebly and in the same de-
gree, because so little photographic light was
transmitted from these colors; while the blue,
the violet and the indigo shades, no matter
how dull they might appear in nature, being
very active,photographically, impressed the
sensitive plate to a great degree and came
out in the photograph much brighter than
the yellows and reds, which were in reality
more brilliant colors.

HOW COLOR IS OBTAINED.

So it was that the beautiful tints of autumn
foliage or the glorious colors of an October
sunset could not at all be accurately depicted
by the camera. For the same reason a paint-
ing could not be truthfully copied; and a
great defect was apparent in a process other-
wise quite perfect.

The problem was to prepare a sensitive sur—
face so that the different colors, while not im-
pressing their exact shades on the plate, would
at least impress themselves differently, and
in a way that they couldbe distinguished one
from another. This has at last actually been
accomplished.

There are several methods by which the
correct values of nature’s beautiful coloring
may be preserved in a photograph, but per~
haps the most effective as well as the simplest
process is the one perfected by Professor
Charles Ehrmann, of the Chautauqua School
of Photography, and associate editor of The
Photographic Times. By his method any
plate may be rendered orthochromatic, or
color sensitive, by simply bathing it in certain
solutions and exposing it in the camera, with
a color screen interposed between it and the
lens. The process originated in Germany,
but was greatly improved by Professor Ehr-
mann.

Two solutions are required: One, a prelimi-
nary bath, consisting of one dram of ammo-
nia to seven drams of » water; and the other,
the “color” bath, which contains one and a‘
half drams of erythrosine—a dye—two drams
of ammonia and five and a half ounces of
water.

The plate is first immersed in the prelimi-
nary bath and allowed to remain therein for
about three minutes. It is then removed from
this solution and allowed to drain. Without
washing it is then plunged in the coloring
bath, where it is allowed to remain not longer
than seventy-five seconds. The plate is then
set up in a. dark, dry place until ready for use.

CARE OF THE PLATES.

It may be exposedin the camera while still
wet, if necessary, and will be found to be
more sensitive while in that condition; but as
a general thing it is safer to wait until the
plate has become perfectly dry before expos-
ing it in the camera.

Plates thus rendered color sensitive are de-
veloped in the usual manner and fixed and
washed in the ordinary way; but being ex—
tremely sensitive to red, orange and yellow—
the colors which ordinarily do not impress
the photographic surface—great precaution
must be taken in preparing and developing
these plates, to have the light very much
subdued and of a dark brown color rather
than a red. A light suitable for working or-
thochromatic plates is easily made by cover-
ing a ruby lantern with several thicknesses
of dark brown tissue paper.

The color sensitive plates will photograph
very accurately all yellow shades, greens and
reds; but for subjects in which the blues,
violets and indigoes predominate, a yellow
color screen must be interposed between the
plate and the lens. The length of exposure is
then increased from three to six times that
required fer an ordinary plate. By this
means not. only may beautifully colored land-
scapes be photographed sothat the shades ap-

true and harmonious in the finished
picture, but brilliantly colored pictures may
be accurately reproduced.

A friend may be photographed so that the
color of hair. eyes and clothing appear natural
in the portrait, and this, after all, ‘is the
achievement which hasbeen most desired by
photographers, both profemional and ama-
teur, for so long a time—W. J. Adams in
Boston Globe.

:The Owners ..Liked This House So Well
That The? Built Another Like It.

’ This is the second thus that this plan has
been worked out for the same owners. They
built this house about as it is )liere illustrated
early last year, but sold. it a very good profit.
‘The “other house” was what- they wanted,
with a “few changes.” The reception hall is
a foot longer; the dining room has a little
projection to one side; the” library is afoot
wider than it was before, and on the second
floor there are'some changes of detail in the
bathroom. Altogether, it is a more perfect

plan than the house they had before, not so
much with respect to the general arrange-
ment as to details.

 

' ' " "I. .s

CELLAR. .

The architect of this house did not like the
sliding doors placed between the parlor and
the library. If it were his house, hinged
doors would be placed between these rooms,
like those between hall and library. In this
way the library would be a quiet place.
With sliding doors sound could be readily
communicated from parlor to library. How-
ever, the people who build this house want
sliding doors.

The room marked “parlor” on this plan is
essentially a sitting room as used by its own-
ers. The reception hall is usedas such. There
is a vestibule before entering it, so there is
no occasion for placing a hat rack in the hall
proper. The seat projection to one side
makes a pretty nook. The pantry and
kitchen arrangement in this house is about
thevsame as that which has been used by the
writer in other plans. There is a little im-

provement, however, in the cellar stairway.
It may be reached from the outside or from
the pantry. One can go up the cellar stair-
way and on to the porch or into the pantry.

In the first house that was built the attic
stairway went up over the front stairway.
As it is now it goes up from the rear. There
are bedrooms in the attic.

I present herewith the collar plan. It shows
how that space may be classified. The laun-
dry has its tubs under the cellar window.
There is a shelf near the cellar stair way. The
furnace is separated from the laundry cellar,
and from the other room which may be used
for storage. The compartments shown are
made with flooring boards and have little
doors in front. In these compartments may
be placed any material which would go into a
