An Unfortunate Editor.

Our merry contemporary of the Chcraw
Ga%cHc, complains OF the taiurs and hat
ters 'that never study his physcgnomy. J"
lie says he has had three new hats in his
time, and perhaps as many coats, that
caused him no little modification. When
dressed in the first one an old friend hal
loed across thc street to him, saying, Good
morning Squire"
lie changed his hat and coat but the
very first time he went from home, was
hailed by u passing acquaintance with,
Good morning, Col. Orr He quietly
replied that he wascnt Col Orr or Col.

to be a little more particular next time, Tor
though the Col. was very good-looking
man nc thought he was rather slippery
politician, and he aidnt want to be like
him.
That suit was laid by all another one
tried. About leaving town, at :hc cput,
a stranger approached him, caught him by
the hand, cXclainling that he was mighty
glad to..sce him-did not expect the pleas
urc of seeing him there, and asked when
he reached Chcraw. lie told the stranger
there was nothing surprising in his being
there, that he had bccu there thirty years,
and was going on to say more, when his
compan on exclaimed, "Aint you Bishop
Ives ~ ':'rhundor. No~ he replied, he'd
be Id if he was Bishop ives, or Bishop
anybody else, and slid into the cars, deter

new hat, and puts on his fourth NV coat,
and starts for Florida.

Sorrows gather round great souls as

them, they break the storms and purify the

the United States. The Saturday Review
has the finest article on the subject por-
ton of which we quote. Strictly speaking,
this fresh and vigorous weekly is incorrect
when it says, in regard to our separation
from England, that, "thc utmost period of
human life has more than elapsed since the
fatal quarrel; and Mc last man ,rho fouylt
IN the icoy' ot Independence, on either side,
has long tee. "a, his grace" How many
soldiers who fought on the English side
still survive, we have no means of knowing;
but We may approximately state the num-
Der of our relics OF the men who fought in
the greatest war so far as results are con-
cerned) of the 18th century. According
to the last report of the Secretary Of tho
Interior, there scre cu the 30th Of juno,
1888, two hundred and fifty-three reyolu-
tionary pensioners. Between that time
and tho end Of the last fiscal yeer,, juno
30, 1880 one revolutionary soldier was irl-
scribc6 upon the rolls OF $40 per annum.
Then We should have If no deaths had oc-
than 254 survivors who bore their part,
either for a longer or for shorter time, in
our war OF independence. But death deals
suddclly and frequently with men so aged,
and therefore we find that 50 of them,
(morc than oae-third) died i'm the twelve
months e.apsv.c between July, SO, and
July, 80. There were then on July 1,
1888. but loo living aud probably to-day

Men who are now in the period of robust
manhood, can remember in their boyhood
days that revolutionary soldiers were even
then old men. If We consider the battle
OF Lexington April 10, 1870 the inaugu-
ration of our war OF Independence, moro
than eighty-tvc years have elapsed since
he"minute men" ofLexington were ordered
by Major Pitcairn to ''disperse." 1t Is not
probable that one Of those minute men was
then less than twenty one years of age.
There Is, we believe, no survivor Of that
battle, or skirmsh, which proved so fatal
to the expedition under Pitcairn. Hon.
Edward Everett, in his polished, eloquent
aud forcible oratiou at Boston on the Fourth
of July this year, stated that not single
American soldier who took part i'm the mem-
orablc battle of Bunker Hill, was still liv-
ing, but 1T appears that two old men have
been found in New England, more than
oHc hWndred years old, who were upon tho
rolls of that gallant band, which, under
Warren, Prescott, aud "Old Put" gave the
British such "a disastrous victory. On tho
10Th of April, 1888, just eighteen years
after the bloodshcd at Lexington, the news
of peace reached Washington's hcad-quar-
terS at Ncwburg. This was more than II
years ago, aud the rawcst recruit or drum,
