Captain Edward B. Richardson, commanding the Battery, said yesterday that the men would probably be mustered out in a week or ten days. Meanwhile there will be no furloughs during the day for the members of the Battery. During the night, only as many men will be kept at the armory as are necessary for guard duty.

The Egyptians of that period, regarding themselves as moderns of the moderns, and certainly the most up-to-date thing then existing, had no respect whatever for the monuments of the Ethiopian period. Old rubbish to the dump.
