THE LYTLE QUEsTIoN.-0ne of our CORES
pondents recently took issue with our statement
that Gen. VIM. H. Lytle, the author of the poem,
"Antony and Cleopatra" was killed ut the bat
tie Of Chickamauga, in September, 1863. He
claimed that Lytle was killed at the battle of
Perryville, KY, in 1862. We were confident
that We were correct; but remembering that no
one is infallble, we sought for other proof. We
have inquired of one whom we knew was in the
battle of Chickamauga. He replied, that all he
knew of it personally was, that he himself was
wounded at Chickamauga, on the 10Th of Sep
tember, and that, on the morning of the Goth,
while lying in tent he heard a surgeon tell a
wounded officer near by, that Gen. Lytle had
been killed the day before. There is large
work called "OhiO in the War;" written and
compiled by Whitelaw Reid, then correspond
ent in the army, aud now editor of the New
York Tribune. 1t is considered an authentic
work, and may certainly be taken as correct, at
least as far as distinguished an Ohio officer as
Gen. Lytle was concerned. This book saws that
Gen. Lytle was wounded at the battle of Carpi-
fax Ferry, in Virginia, in 1861; that he was
wounded and captured at the battle of Perry
vile, in 1862 and that he was killed at the
battle of Chickamauga, Georgia, on the 10Th of
September, 1868, having had four balls shot in TO
him before he fell.

= The Troy Chief was 81 years old, the 18th. and
it celebrated the occasion by publishing yery inter
esting and comprehensive history of the press Of Don

all his newspaper exchanges, and has them stowed
away by the housefu and hence, is always prepared
to find facts in regard to the past given in the CO.

prepare. has never been published. But Listery of
that County would necessarally be largely history
patch.
The idea of that history has not yet been aban-
doned, but will be carried out, when the sign is
right. 1t will require q vast amount of time and
labor, which one who has to work for his living
cannot afford to bestow upon it. But in the
sweet by-and-by, when We get richer and have
more leisure, it shall be done.

e BE it remembered that the law repeating
tho Resumption act, which was amended by the
Senate, leaving it in such shape that it was very
nearly as good whole loaf, was defeated in

it was not precisely in the shape they desired it,

We will state that the article signed 81. w.
Garen," bore the name of q bona fde person,
and the article signed G. H. NJ. was sent by G..
H. Mercer, who is also, we learn, real person.
They both wrote on a subject that is of consider
able in terest to the people of portion Of the
County, and it is nothiug to us whether they
wrote from draft furnished by A. J. Mowry or
not. They would have been inserted if signed
by A. J. Mowry himself, as would any other ar
ticle dealing simply with question of public
interest. So that We have not been fooled so
badly as to cause to loose any sleep, after all.

The GLORIOUS FoURTH-Need we remind the
reader that this is the ever glorious Fourth of
Julyf just one hundred years ago, it was two
years after the Declaration of Independence was
promulgated. Did You ever think of thati Did
You ever think of another thingi No other
event of worldwide Importance ever occurred
on the Fourth of July. The event of July 4th,
l776, was like clap of thunder-it drowned the
noise of everything else that might ever occur
on Fourth of July. Perhaps none of us will
ever live to be signers of the Declaration of In.
dependence one hundred and two years ago.
But let rs do the next best thing-have as good
time as possible now. This is our Fourth of
July oration.

u The Topeka Commonwealth makes the su-
perftuous announcement that it is in favor of the
denomination of Gov. Anthony, and says that it
has never yet heard of any good reason why he
should not be renominated. Has the Common
realh ever heard that Anthony ran 1900 votes
behind the Republican ticket Has it never
heard the opinion, expressed by men who are
only working for the interests of the party, that
Anthony, if nominated, will run 10000 or 25, 200
behind the ticket this yearf Has it never heard
protest from close Counties, that his nomina-
tion would insure the defeat of many County
and Legislative ticketsi Are not these good
reasons why he should not he nominated Z Is
his personal ambition of such overtowering i'm

v The office of Secretary of State will be
sought after, in the Republican Convention, by
more persons than any other Office on the ticket.
Among recent names brought forward, we hear
that of James Smith, the present Treasurer of
Marshall County. Mr.. Smith is competent, en-
ergetic, and popular; and as Marshall County
has always stood shoulder to shoulder with Don
iphan, we think that Smith can reasonably
count upon tally from this County, in the Con-
vention.

Now, what's the of that kind of stuff, You
should not lie about man, just because you do not

Anthony made speech, the sentiment of which was
appauded by most of the members of the fraternity

II The last Bxlietin coolIy installs Mowry as

what they think Of it. Don't wait for Couven-
tions, to decide who you want for leaders, but
take the medicine the Bslletin mixes up for You.
