handsome appearance. 1t is owned and run
by stock company, which brides itself on its
strong financial backing" and on the fact
that 1t is made up of leading Republicans in
different parts of Caledonia county. It's
'strong financial backing" the representa-

Republicanism" will, however, have little TO
do with making the new paper success, IN.
less it demonstrates its right to exist on some
other grounds than these. 1t must show far
more ability than it has yet exhibited to prove
its right to supplant the Caledonian, which
for many years has held its place as coun-
try paper of much more than average ability,
and one every way clean and wholesome.
The fact that, whatever the alleged demand
for its existence, the new paper, in its practi-
cal effect, has been started to kill of or in
jure the Oaledonian, will operate steadily
against 1t. 1t is true that it can probably so
cut up the business for time as to leave no
margin of profit for either concern; but the
killing of" will be a harder Job than its
owners imagine. From its ownership and

donian is known fact. However confident.

counted on a stampede of the public patron.

Contrary to the expectation Of week ago
Gen. Grant still lives, and has passed fair
ly comfortable week, though his death may
take place at any time. The most alarming
incident Of the week has been an attack Of
bleeding which took place on Tuesday morn
ing This was soon checked by the physi-
cians two of whom remain with the General
constantly, but the loss of blood weakened
the patient materially. This mornings state
ment is that the doctors believe the General
may live at least week, and possibly till
May The immediate danger is not from the
spread of the cancer but from either blood
poisoning or exhaustion. His suffering is at
times intense, but he maintains perfect COM
posure utters no complaint, and tries to
make the least trouble possible for his at
tendants. On recent evening when be had
all his family about him, he gave them each
his parting message, said his good byes, and
now waits his death as calmly as be faced his
foes in battle.
