German Field Library.

A correspondent sends us the following extract from a letter received from his son, a lieutenant colonel in charge of a cavalry field ambulance: “As I was riding over country recently captured from the enemy with the object of establishing a forward dressing sta- ( tlon, I came on a German camp library in working order. It was full of books and magazines, beautifully printed and bound. Afhong them I saw translations of Captain Marryat’s works. I should like to have taken.some as

souvenirs, but time and place made it Impossible."—London Mnll.
