why We Mourn tge De"s" VI ""
Il. Lee. NNt
From the 1uka GazetteJ
Some of the Radical papers are try
inc 10 make bigger fools of themselves
than nature has made them--and she has
heen quite lavish of her favors in that
line. They are cutting up dreadfnlly
because the Southern people are mourn
ing for General Lee, and say that the
cities, towns, people and papers who
mourn for Lee, are not the same that
grieved for Lincoln; and that 1t IS not
for Lee the soldier that they show such
Sims of sorrow. They are mighty right
about thas. 1t isl class that mourns for
Lee. as different from Lincoln mourners
as heaven is from hell, and we can say
TO them, if it will afford them any com
fort, that If every Radical in the United
States were dead as Lincoln is, and rs
doubly damned as most OF them ought
to be, we would not feel milllonth
part the grief we did when the
first dispatch announced that Robert L.
Lee was stricken with paralysis And.
further we will tell them, that as much
as we loved General Lee, as an honored
Christian gentleman and patriotic citi-
zen. il is as the leader of the noble Con-
federate braves that we so much grieve
his death-leader of the bravest band OF
patriots that ever fought for Constitu-
tional Government and civil liberty, or
that was ever conquered by hired He's
slams or Yankee thieves. Yes, we grieve
for the Lost Cause" and have ever
since the sad intelligence first flashed
along the wires that Lee had laid down
his arms at Appomattox, and the more
we have felt Of Radical tyranny the
more we have regretted it. We expect
to regret it as long as we live, and
damned be the Southern renegade and
apostate who does not.

During the recent earthquake the fol-
lowing incident occurred at the court
house in Keene, N. H.. When the dull
rumbling sound accompanying the shock
was heard, the judge at once ordered the
sheriff to arrest the person making the
disturbance; but, before that dignitary
had time to exercise his authority, 1t
became evident that the matter was
beyond his jurisdiction.
The remarkable phenomena of a rain
shower of FIVE days duration, and con-
fined to a cemetery lot at Mobile, Ala,
in which thirteen members of the same
family had been inferred, was witnessed
last week by upward of 200 persons. 1t
continued night and day, and at no time
during its continuance did rain fall any
where else in the neighborhood. Those
who first witnessed the phenomena were
afraid to call general attention to it, for
fear they might run the risk of being
considered insane.
A negro named VIM. Stinson was hung
