no other He admitted that there might be the
barest possibility that the incident
was Tot true, but he did not believe
there was He had no desire to mislead the
public in the least, he had no motive to produce
false impression, and had he at any time be-
come convinced that the event had no founda-
ton in fact, he should have acknowledged it.
He regretted the extent of the controversy,
as he desired to escape being drawn into it,
not on account of any claims of opponents,
but on the ground of peace. And he added an
exquisite touch Of pardonable pride as he said
"good bye I'm little afraid the incident
will stick to the old lady for some tine yet.
And so the matter stands. ENConfederates
have sworn to having been in the "dust-browned
ranks and fired at the old flag other Ex-Con-
federates have sworn that the matter was
myth. Those who have volunteered statements
have only believed" either their data or
memories being defective, and their opinions
can hardly stand in the strong light OF the poets
evidence and belief, fitm aud, at
all the world knows, sincerely honest.
No matter how much be said against this noble
story of nobler act, the idol III all New Eng
land hearts can never be thrown down, nor the
tender beauty of the Quaker's verse impaired by
those who question the verify of the event. The

are all enshrined. Assuredly the incident will

The removal of Mr.. Douglass from the head of
the Internal Revenue Bureau appears to have
Leen according to the desire OF Secretary
Brstow. Numerous important changes have
taken place in the Treasury Department, since
Mr.. Brstow assumed charge of it, including the
Solicitor, the Treasurer, the Assistant Secretary
and now the Commissioner of Internal Revenue
These are, in fact. the secretary's most import
ant subordinates, and il he has secured persons
not only competent but who will work in accord
with himself-as we suspect he has-we may
ook for an increased efficiency in the adminis-
tration of the Treasury We have faith in Mr..
Bristow and we think people generally have the
