From the NenaIhiS (Tenn.) Appeal.
There are two sentences in Grants memoirs
that uncover the heart of the man and prove
him great indeed. He says, on meeting Gen.
Lee at Appomattox: II felt like anything
rather than rejoicing at the downfall of foe
that had fought so long and gallantly and had
suffered so long for a cause which believe to
be one of the worst for which a people
ever fought, and for which there was not the
least pretext." And again he says, speaking
of his interview with Gen. Lee: "Our con-
versation grew so pleasant that almost for
got the object of our meeting" No spirit of
ianatical revenge could have lurked near the
heart of the man who could thus be taken out
of himself and away from the great business
affecting an everlasting truce, that had
brought him and Lee together that day.

Some Of the newspapers want the
government TO get Lieut.. Howard, the
fighting commercial drummer, to go after
the Arizona Indians with his Calling
gun. His gun would not amount 20 much
used against the Apaches. The Indians
could be killed easily enough with Spen.
Ger rifles, II the troops could only get
them in hole like the one Rieps rebels
were in at Batouche. This Gatling gun
business reminds one OF the tramp who
for nights entertainment promised to
clear farmers premises Of rats. when
reminded Of his promise, as he was about
to depart, he seized a club, put his back
against the barn, and told his host to
bring on his rats.

A Suggestion TO the Council.

Would it not be wise move for our city
authorities to take into consideration the
advisability of having the law which ex-
tended the corporation limits amended so
as to give the city the right to tax the
property in the new addition, and thus
provide funds for opening and improving
the streets recently laid off A tax of
One-hAlf of the amount levied upon real
estate in the old part of the city would
provide a sufficient amount TO reimburse
the treasury for all improvements. This
plan was the original idea of those who
were the most earnest in urging the ex-
tension of the city limits, but was ignored
by those who had the matter in charge.
The present condition of affairs is in
furious to the interest of the property
owners, and is of no benefit to the city.
The city authorities will not open the
streets, as they do not feel authorized, and
very properly, to expend money in part
Of the city that pays nothing into the
treasury. This matter will come up Mt
the expiration of 10 years from the pas
sage of the present law and will then have
10 be considered. Why, then, should IL
not be considered nowy The true policy
would appear TO be to take 'time by the
forelock" and do what should be done at
once. The present condition Of affairs is
retarding the growth Of the city, by IN
fluenoing parties against improving their
property. The remedy for this state of
affairs is for the city 10 open the streets
and meet the cost by taxes upon the
property in the addition.

The OlIgarchv Overthrown.

a Republican Ohgarchy has been over
thrown and the Democratic leaders do not
propose to establish another with a new
name. The idea is abhorrent to all the hopes
which were awakened IN the minds of the
people by the overthrow of the Republican
party last November. The Office holders held
for eight years the balance of power. The
peoples servants had become their masters.
u is this abuse Of public trusts against which
Mr.. Cleveland has consistently entered his
protests. It is this abuse which this admins
tratlon will largely reform. The reform
means something more than a mere change of
persons, or 1t means nothing at all; but it I'M

No fears are felt for her safety, however,

The last Legislature Of North Carolina
so reduced the appropriation tor the sup
port Of the Insane Asylum that the pa
tients are allowed but $40 cents for
each meal, n sum which the Superintend-
ent says is ''less than the smallest amount
charged In the cheapest soup houses for
outdoor paupers" Probably the next
Legislature will investigate the SUI
perintendent on the charge of starving
the inmates. While the members OF the
last Legislature were so disgracefllly
stingy with worthy charity, not one Of
them, so far rs heard from, failed to draw
his full amount OF per diem and mileage.

Very naturally the wonderful speed of
the little yacht StIletto, that beat the
Mary Powell, the famous Hudson river
steam boat, a few days ago has started the
inquiry whether vessel as large as those
which compose the principal European
lines of steamers could be built on the
plan of the stietto that would equal her
in speed.
Steamship builders and owners will
never be satisfied until they shorten,
very perceptibly, the time between this
country and Europe. The fastest steam
ers not only get the mails, but the larger
per centage of the passengers. There
isn't much doubt that the dangers of
travel are increased in proportion as the
time occupied in crossing the ocean is
shortened. This increased danger is, to
some extent, provided against by in
creased care and caution. But, however
great the care and caution may be they
cannot insure safety IN fogs and among
icebergs.
Several times within the past few
months European steamers have been in
great peril from icebergs and fogs and,
although both can be avoided by taking
the southern route, steamers stick to the
northern route because 1t is one hundred
miles shorter, and because the water
being colder the condensation of steam is
easier and the consumption of fuel is,
therefore, much less.
1t appears, therefore, that safety is sac
ridced for speed and economy in fuel, and
it is pretty certain that if much greater
speed could be obtained, even at the ex-
pense Of safety, steamship owners would
not hesitate about obtaining it.
In Memory of Col. VIM. t. Thompson.
A neat monument has been erected in
/ the family lot in Laurel Grove cemetery
over the grave of Col. VIM. T. Thompson.
the laCe editor of the MORNING NEWS.
who was its founder, and until his death,
a period of thirty-two years, its editor.
This tribute to the memory of one of GeOr-
gia's most gifted sons was erected, by those
who knew him best, and loved him for his
many noble qualities, a few days since,
without any ceremony or display. The
work was done, under the direction of the
proprietor OF the MORNING NEWS, by
Col. II. d. Walker. Col. Thompson
needed no marble monument to keep alive
his memory. His unblemished life and
his many virtues are a nobler and more
enduring monument than can be carved
by the hand of man. The western face
Of the stone bears the following inscrip-
ton:
