He is looked upon by the officers as a being beneath iheir notice, except during the times when the word of com-ds mand is given. And this feeling from the officers to the civilians. The sentiments created by the magpies with the soldier (traps are disseminated all over the country until those who should know better; those who are the real sovereigns of the nation, the civilians, use with indifference and utter contempt their servants who wear the uniform.
