At the recent meeting of the Army of the Tennessee General Sherman reopened an old controversy He made an address on the battle of Shiloh, or Pittsburg Landing, in which he denied the story that the army was taken by surprise and spoke contemptuously of the account of that battle written by Whitelaw Reid, then the war correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette, who, General Sher- man said, was not present on the field, but wrote his letters from Cairo or Paducah, hundreds of miles away Mir. Reid answers in the New York Tribune that he was on the battlefield and wrote from personal observa- tion, as well as from information gathered from officers who were engaged. He also as sumes to correct other of General Shermans statements, referring him to official reports and other sources of knowledge, which he suggests that the General must have over looked or forgotten. Other newspapers and correspondents contribute to the controver- sy, among them General Sherman's old ad- versary, Boynton, and the Cincinnati Gd- sstte, which seems to be of opinion that if General Mcclellan and General Sherman had taken the other side in the war the rebels could not have held out month.

The sharpness of newspaper reporter has been used to some purpose in Tonawanda, New York. Orson Shepard of that place re- ceived $6O, 900 in railroad bonds. His wife saw him put them into the safe which held all his valuable documents. He died four days afterward. The administrator of the estate had the safe broken open. the capi- talist not having revealed the combination, but could not find the bonds. Every drawer was removed and every bundle of papers ex- amined over and over, but in vain. It was deemed clear that the treasure had been stolen. Everybody who had been near the safe after it was opened was suspected. De- tectives were employed and the whole town was excited. A reporter of the Buffalo Courier went to Tonawanda to write up the case. He examined the compartments of the safe critically. One of the drawers had a thicker bottom than seemed necessary. He pried it up and found the missing $6O,oOO in a secret receptacle. .

Governor St. John has sent letter to the Womans Temperance Union of Chicago, which seems to dispose of various rumors relative to the nature and probable operation of the prohibitory law in Kansas. The Govern of writes That many of the whiskey dealers in this State are moving to Kansas City, Mo, is true, but for every saloon keeper that goes out of Kansas on account of our prohibitory law, a sufficient number of sober, industri- ous, energetic families come into the State to build Q school house, and Kansas can al- ways afford to trade her saloons for school houses, and drunkenness for sobriety That part of the letter which alleges that the law interferes with the free and unrestricted sale of tinctures compounds that are used solely for medicine is not true nor does the law directly or indirectly interfere with the right to administer or partake of wine at communion services. All such stories are instigated and circulated by the whiskey ring in order to break the force of the prohibitory whiskey well know that when it has been thoroughly tested and proved, which it will be, that prohibition in Kansas is grand success, other States will follow our example, and eventually the policy of prohibition will be fundamental law of the United States. Notwithstanding the law does not take effect until the first of May next, already the sa- looms have closed in most of the interior towns of the State, and after the 1st of May we will not have an open bar in Kansas nor will Kansas ever again be guilty of giving the sanction of law to that which everybody knows to be wrong.

THE LIBRARY CONCERT.

Henry Mulholland, Fred Heinemann
and G. B. Burnet have been appointed a
committee to make arrangements for the
Jones Library benefit concert which will
be given some time the latter part of this
month. The programme is not yet per-
fected, but there can be no doubt that
the entertainment will be a very enjoy
able one. After the concert there will
be dance.
The citizens of Manitowoc should take
pride in keeping up their excellent libra
ry. There are two strong inducements
for attendance at the concert,-the en-
ioyment which may be had aud the as
sistance to be given to an institution
which merits public support. The off,
GERS have been taxing themselves to keep
the library running. The people should
now assist them.

Miss Kate Kane, the Milwaukee female
lawyer, will lecture at Turner Hall in this
city on the evening of the 29th on Leg
isiation for The Poor Man" Miss Kane
is an erratic genius, who tramples upon
that public opinion which would circum-
scribe the sphere of Woman. She has
the spirit OF Couer De Leon and de-
gree of enthusiasm which may with more
propriety be called fanaticism. She is
the George Francis Train of the female
sex, though perhaps more practical than
he ''of the brilliant mind oe'rthrown. +"
She has a thirst for fame and seeks it
through the role of reformer and an ac-
tivity which few men can equal.

THE SPRING FLOODS.

Notwithstanding that the immense
quantity of snow which fell last winter
went off as slowly as could be expected,
the streams and rivers are SO badly swol-
len as to threaten serisous damage. The
danger comes mainly from the ice which
has retained its solidity up to the time of
breaking. Those immense blocks form
ice gorges and hold the water back until
its force becomes dangerous.
Pierce's dam aud the bridge at that
place has given way and an ice dam at
this side of the village of Manitowoc
Rapids has thrown the water back until
the village is flooded, the streets being
filled and the water standing as high as
one foot on the lower floor OF dwelling
houses. The water has raised so high
that the lower bridge is partially SUBJ
merged although it stands fully ten feet
above the average hight Of the water
there. The current near Eighth street
bridge has been quite rapid-fully four
miles an hour.
kliugholz mill dam is in danger of &C.
ing out. Danger is apprehended in the
ship yards when the ice dams above give
way.
The small country streams though bad
~ swollen are not doing much damage.
Some few small bridges have been swept
of. The bridge at Neshoto has gone and
a portion of the dam at that place.

ties into that fold of common brother

divine injunction, "Love one another"
He did SO much good outside of strict
church duties by personal association
and by that restless activity which char

mourned by the people at large.

ment of the church. He had very ae-
tive mind, bold and original He never
hesitated to grapple with difficulties
which stood in the way of good to his
congregation and the people generally.
Severe labor never appalled, him and his
salary was valued only as means of &C
complishing those charitable objects
which his sympathetic mind suggested.
Our acquaintance with Father Jacobs was
more intimate than may be supposed and
we write with personal knowledge of
his admirable qualities. As al instance
of his devotion to duty: On the We'd
nesday before his death he was confined
to bed and the attending physicians
counseled repose. In the afternoon, ex-
aminations were to be held in the paro-
chial schools under his charge. He
knew the children would be disappoint-
ed at his absence as he had promised to
be present. He was present and conduct
ed the examinations having previously
cautioned those acquainted with his con-
dition not to inform the people of the Sc
verify of his sickness. While conduct
ing the examinations he found it neces-
sary to withdraw for while to rid him
self of blood which had collected through
hemorrhage of the stomach, but he COM
pleted the work for which he arose from
his death bed. So carefully did he con-
ceal his condition from his parishioners,
that his death was considered q very sud
den one. But for quite long time he
knew that his days were numbered. With
this knowledge and harassed by an in
durable disease, he continued to discharge
his duties without murmur, feeling that
his troubles were his own and not to be
shared by the congregation he loved.
His was well spent life and his good
deeds live after him, an example to the
rising generation and pleasant recollec-
ton to the people whose affections he had
earned
