Winter Caaa pal condense the following from a late num ber of the Boston Traveller. The historical statistics are interesting i Oar warfare has again asetuned an acUv character and large proportions, and that, too, at a ceaaon not considered favorable for operations of any kind, aad which, nnder old sys- tema.

amies wer agreeably employed in making themselva as comfortable as possible, in the beet winter quarters they could find. It is not correct, however, to say, as haa been said, that winter warfare 'is a pecu liarity of enr ooateet. it is as id. as warfare. and though exceptional, it was bat little mors so thousands of years ago than it is at this time.

In modern times, winter has has aaen some of the hardest fighting ever known, and snow baa been tamed red from the effusion of blood on -many a field. Tha Spaniards, and later th French, carried on war against th Dutch at times so cold that skates could be brought into use by the soldiery on both sides. Tbe French revolutionary armies fought as wen winter as summer, ana on on occasion a French cavalry fere took a fleet that was frosen up. 8ome of the atiffest of Napeleon'e fiffhta came off" when tbe weather was cold enough, to freeae everything batman's fury. Ansterlits was won fat December, and Eylan In February; tbe cavalry in this last named battle charging over ponds that had been eon-verted into solid sheets of ice.

Naooleon's only, Spanish campaign, at tha close of 1808, was carried on wpen tno weatner was tn worst that could be had. Thd famous campaign of 1814,. in France; began in January, BBUval VIVWWtA WABU enaa OWS ajCm a BAVB? AB WW AAV fJSVAnV FBM in it hava told u( that tha weather was as cold and aa stormy, and as horrible in every way, aa any tbing tbey bad ever experienced in Russia or Poland. Washington won the battle of Trenton at th cloee of December, 1776. and that of Princeton in th early part of th following an- nary.

Jackson's campaign of 1814-15, perhaps th greatest thug aver dona by an American in tha militarr wit. was all winter work. Th only months named in its immortal history are December and January.

was terrible fighting in the winter of 1831 between the Russians and tb Poles; in th winter of 1848-9 between th Austrian and th Haoga-riaasi and ia th winter of 1851-5 between tbe 'Allies and th Russians. These facts might be greatly extended, out nave said suffleieBt to show that our war work in the iron season has nothing original about it. What is remarkable, however, Is this, that mach of th hardest of oar work has been deliberately begun in winter. opened th war in 1852 in January, and in that aad tha following mouth our soldiers did som of th best things that hay been den sinoe tha be- gnnleg of hostilities. Gen.

As predicted, his losses hava been greatly exaggerated by the enemy 'a re porta.
