The Preserver of the Union.

New York Herald: Only two citizens of the
peace. One rests at Mount Vernon. The other
died Thursday on Mount McGregor. If we
cannot add of Gran: tiiat lie was first also in
the hearts of his countrymen, vet we NAV say
with truth that since Washington no citizen
save Lincoln came nearer to filing that measure
of praise Sincere patriot. brave soldier,
pure hammered and pure-minded citzen-these
are General Grants titles to the respect and
love of his countrymen now and forever. As
Franklin conceived the Union and Washington
created it, so Grant preserved it. What nobler
service has any hero of cur century rendered
to mankind?
Boston Herald: The terrible and pathetic
features of the great generals last sickness have
drawn toward him the sympathes of the entire
nation. The marvellous patience and fortitude
with which he has borne his sutierings and the
calm courage with which he has faced the in
eyitable end, have stirred again the love and
admiration which went out TO the victorious
hero of the war. All was forgotten save his
inestimabe services to the country, apd the
7'iNhS'h e'iiN hophitS VI MS Sial btu.
Grant was IA unique figure in our history, and
his name. worthily linked with those of WASH
ington and Lincoln, will lead forever the ma
TONS roll of fame.
Boston Advertiser: Longfelow's beautiful
lines upon the death of the Duke of Wellington
will rise to many lips when the news Is read
that Grant is dead. Beside that open grave
political hostility is hushed and the tongue of
criticism is silent. All that the American people
think of this morning is that great man is
dead. There is no falser rule than ''te mortus
nil nisi bonum," and Grant will find In history
his just need of praise and blame. But at this
solemn moment we can well afford to leave
criticism to history and remember only that the
foremost citizen of the republic since the death
of Lincoln, the foremost not only to us but to
the civilized world, is gone from us. He was
really great man. He had done great deeds
and fought great fights and Won great victories
he had carried in his hands the lives of thous
ands of men, and had been intrusted on the
field of battle with the safety of the republic.
When the history of this age Is written, Grant
will fill large place In Its pages. His name and
his deeds can be safely left to posterity

spoke of the young man who examined the

officer, and an inspector there only inspects
custom houses, while with us he would be a
special agent. We were also in error, it APP

FISH AND FISHING. 7 he State Fish Com
mssioners have been laboring diligently the
past season TO improve the fisheries, and stock
the rivers of the State with fry. Three hundred
thousand young salmon have been placed in the
head waters of the Penobscot river; 200, 900. of
the kennebec; 100000 Saco; 10000, Denny's.
One hundred thousand land locked salmon were
liberated in Moosehead lake, and 10000 In
Rangley lakes Salmon have not been so
abundant in the Penobscot for 80 years. and
over 40 of these royal fish have been taken at
Bangor. Fish Commissioners StwelI and
Stanley INDUCED in an hours angling with the
rod and fly there, Thursday, Mr.. Stllwell sue
ceedlng in capturing one fish, and Mr.. Stanley
hooking two, but losing them both Statements
had been made that the tish-wav on the dam
was not effective, but the commissioners proved
the utility of the way by closing it and examin-
ing the interior. They found several salmon
therein, one being at the head and about to
enter the waters above. The Penobscot salmon
are now characterized by their medium and
small size, which is evidence to the commiss-
toner's that they are the same fish with which
the river was previously stocked - Black bass
are now very thoroughly distributed through
out the State, and but little more effort will be
required in the way of increasing the numbers
of these fish.
