GRANT DEAD,


The dispatches Of yesterday
morning told the world that Gen
eral Grant was dead.
The public have been for some
months prepared for this, and have
looked forward to it as a matte,
only of time.
Grants public life from the time
he first figured in the war, almost
to his closing hours, has been spent
in the whirl and excitement Of con-
tending events.
Few men ever lived who we're SO
storm beaten az he, The first
years Of his public career were
spent in the hurry burly Of great
battles, out Of whose chaos and
tempest he plucked fame and vic
tory. His frmness and GOODNESS
under all circumstances became a
proverb in the army. With squad
r0ns of wild men sweeping about
him, squares melting away in the
heat of grape and canister, and
batallions disappearing in the ebb
and flow of tremendous strife,
Grant sat like statue Of fate, as
motionless as rock upon the
beach.
Though subjected to much sharp
criticism for his work, there is no
question but that his military
skill is being more and more I'M
aerstood as the lost threads ut evil
dence are gathered up. and he has
been for years steadily rising in
the esteem of military men who
have calmly reviewed his battles
and marches, without passion or
prejudice. One by one, those who
ranked below him, have brushed
away the rivalries of the war, and
acknowledged his greatness as al
military commander.
As q President, Grant made
many mistakes Of judgment. butt

surplus to be spent in internal inn

Brutus buried the steel in Caesar.
After that came reverses, andf
only recently his financial connect
tons brought a cloud over an hon =
cradle name, and it is a general bel
lief that these troubles hastenedx
his death.
At the time Of his demise he was
a hard literary worker, trying with
bis pen to retrieve the fallen for
turnes Of his family, and giving to-
The world some of the most inter

end was characterized by that iron
will that had made him famous,

What Saved His Life.

The way to stop the flow of blood from 8 bad wound has been so often pointed out that 1t is best illustrated by an actual example. When people in- Iured and bleeding are able to help themselves by so simple process, they should certainly love their lives well enough to do so.
 That Gen. Sickles is alive to-day is due only to his great presence of mind. When he fell on the field of Gettysburg, he tainted. Recovering consciousness, but half-dazed, he found he was com pletely away from the hope of immedi- ate help, and that blood was gushing from his leg in jets, showing that an ar tery was severed. Painfully raising him. self until ke found his handkerchief, he tied it around the wound in such way as to stop the flow, and, in order to se- cure additional tightness, ran his sword handle under the handkerchief, and IT7;;ssh all his power twisted it around and held it so until the surgeon came on the battle field. Like most persons, he had read directions of what was necessary to be done in such emergencies, but, unlike many persons, he was cool and collected enough to put his reading into practice when the emergency came.

An EmperOr's Joke.

In the published memoirs of Kara- tygin, the famous Russian actor, will be found the following characteristic anec- dote of the. late Emperor Nicholas. His Majesty happened one day to be engaged in inspecting state penitentiary in one of the provincial seats of government, and took it into his head to question some of the convicts respecting the na- ture of the offenses for which they were suffering punishment. "What are you here for?" he asked of one. "I am in- nocent, Imperial Majesty" replied the prisoner, falling on his knees, "a victim of false witnesses! A church was robbed "a beadle knocked on the head-the peasants caught hold of me and knew nothing about it." Turning to another, the Czar asked, "And you?" "False witness again, Imperial Majesty. A peddler was done for close to my house. I never even dreamed of such a thing" "And you" said Nicholas to third. "Sheer malice, Sire. One of my neigh bors conveyed lot of forged notes into my pockets, and hid away ithographic stone in my bedroom. 1 am as inno- cent as an unborn babe" The Emper- or, obviously bored by these successive protestations of guiltlessness, cast 8 glance along the line of prisoners until his eye fell upon a ragged, wretched- looking gypsy, whom he beckoned for ward with the words, "Of course you, too, are here on false charge?'' "Not 8 bit of it, your Majesty" replied the Tsigan; it is all fair and square as far as am concerned. I stole pony from tradesman." "Stole pony, did you?" said the Czar, with laugh, and then, addressing the Governor of the prison with well-assumed sternness, Turn that good-for-nothing rascal in- stantly out of doors. I cannot allow him to remain a minute longer in such honorable and virtuous company, lest he pervert all these good, innocent peo- ple.'

How to Hang Thermometers.

There seem to be so many erroneous notions among the many amateur mete- Orologists of the city about the minimum temperature of the twenty-four hours, and how to obtain 1t correctly, says a correspondent of the St. Paul Pioneer Press, that few lines from an "old weathercock, trust, will not be alto gether lost. In the first place, then, the temperature of the wall of any build ing at any hour of the night or day is not the true temperature of the circulat- ing air, and Is of no use to science. A wood wall will radiate its heat moro rapidly than brick or stone, and the amateur scientist who hangs his ther- mOmeter on wood wall can force his mercury down below the amateur who selects brick wall. The proper way to expose your thermometer Is to surround it with light wood frame, covered with slats, like shutter work, and rooted over. This will protect 1t from the direct rays of the sun and reflected heat. Run a light wood bar across the center of your shelter, to which you can attach the thermometer, which should be, when properly exposed, on the north side of the building, and at least one foot from all surrounding objects. If these direc- tions are followed, erroneous reports of extreme cold weather will not find their way into print so often. It Is not a very funny thing for the press to report 5 deg. below zero, when 15 deg. repre- scented the true temperature of the cir culating air. It gives persons abroad wrong impressions of your climate.

Surgeons Preaching.

In the vast throng the eye soon rec ognizes the central figure of the whole. If he were not there, the pastor of this immense dock, one might speculate, ig- nOrant of his absence, Is not that per haps he, or the other? But, being there, no doubt can exist. The one fig ure comes out, to which all others are a setting-a full, pallid face, with thick iron-gray hair and fringe of dark beard. As the clock overhead shows the half-hour the pastor comes forward, and at once the confused sound ceases the shuffiing of feet, the frou-frou of dresses, the nervous cough that runs over the area like the rattle of file-firing
 and a profound stiffness greets the first words of prayer. The voice is worn with much service, even husky in the higher notes, but admirably managed and modulated so as to reach every cor her of the wide arena. We feel at once that we are in the presence of born orator. Without book or scrap of pa per, there is, from the first, a confident. easy flow of well-chosen words. Some distinguished orators put you in cold precipitation till they have fairly warmed to their work but, with Mir. Sturgeon all is easy and self-conscious power which inspires confidence in the listener. It Is part of the preachers system not to spare himself in any way, but to give the whole service the emphasis of his own unaided powers. His reading oi scripture is accompanied by running commentary that is kind of prelimina- " sermon, and he gives out each verse of the hymn with appropriate feeling and action. There is no organ, and il excites certain feeling of disparity O means to end, when an elderly precentol leans forward from the tribune and sounds 8 tuning fork to lead off the psaImody--the assemblage is so big and the tuning fork so small. But the sing ing itself Is disappointing. There is not that grand outpouring one might expect from such an assemblage.
 A great deal of the charm of Mir Spurgaon's discourse there is a powerful charm about it, causing time to flow on unperceived, and the risk of losing train to be disregarded-is due to the ease and certainty of delivery, and the good old English in which it is expressed. If the preacher in former days sometimes sacrificed good taste to force of expression, time and experience have toned down such exuberances. But much of the ancient fire still smoul- ders beneath the surface, and, perhaps, the expectation of the breaking forth of some sudden flash of electric nature still further increases the before-men- toned charm. But, really, the time one likes MT. Sturgeon best is when he met aphorically descends altogether from the platform, and, taking his audience by the button-hole. so to speak, recounts some telling little story or epigrammat- ic saying.-AH the Fear Round.

Hunting Turkeys in Georgia.

The boys on Wallan's creek have adopted novel way to gobble wild gob- blers. When they take it into their heads to make raid on this monstrous bird they simply provide themselves with feet horses and a pack of wild logs as their only implements of war fare. Thus equipped they hie away to the woods, and when they find their game they simply put spurs to their horses and proceed to chase as though it were fox instead of turkey. A fat gobbler, 1t is said, cannot fly great dis tance, and when he pitches, if on the ground, he takes to his heels till he IS so closely pursued by the dogs that he is compelled to resort again to his wings for safety. Thus the chase is kept up continuously until the gobbler becomes completely Jagged out and can neither run nor fly, when, of course, he has to succumb to his pursuers. It was in this way that c. M. Rozar, John Peacock and Charley Flood captured two fine gobblers, weighing respectively sixteen and eighteen pounds. The smaller one was chased about nine miles and the other about eight. - Wallan (Ga.) Times.

4 Domestic Romance.

Are you going to give me that
 Arthur Ainsleigh turned quickly but quietly from the landscape on which his eyes were fxed-a bit of green meadow fringed with hills, on whose tops the rays of the setting sun were just resting, bringing out the bright tints of the heath- CT, and giving to the whole scene a rich, warm coloring such as one sees in the works of the old masters that gem the galleries of Europe-and looked tenderly but firmly at the beautiful girl who stood by his side.
 "No. my darling" he said, taking her small hand gently into his, "I cannot stake you so high as that. Let it be a dollar, sweetheart, and the money Is yours."
 The girl started back as if stIng by a serpent, the sudden movement revealing each graceful outline of her 1.-the figure and showing the perfect symmetry of her ashes-of-roses polonaise, which had two rows of pleating down the front and was shirred up the back-stretch and pretty we'll around the lower turn.
 Looking at the young man steadily for a moment, she said in low, tremu- lous tonss that showed far more plainly than the ghastly paleness of her face the terrible emotions that were racking her soul: "You are mean, hateful thing, !" and, bursting suddenly into a fit of wild, hysterical weeping, she left the room.
 They had been married but four months, Arthur Ainsleigh and Ethel Quirk, and already the black clouds of domestic discord were showing their forbidding outlines on the edge of the erstwhile rosy horizon, while the jagged bolts of jealousy were lighting up with a lurid glare the empyrean so recently unfecked by a cloud, and the hoarse mutterings of discontent and waning love reverberated in hollow and mourn ful tones throughout the dome of the ideal palace which these two young hearts had so short a time since built for themselves.
 It was asimple matter thathad brought about this discord. Ethel wanted five pairs of stockings at 50 cents per pair, while Arthur had decided tbat two was all she needel.
 For nearly an hour not sound broke the silence that reigned in the boudoir from which Ethel had departedin anger, Lave the soft ticking of a marble clock. Arthur still sat moodily on the faeteuiL, absorbed in thought. The door was softly opened and Ethel came in. Ar thur did not hear her. Stepping softly across the room she knelt beside him, and, throwing her soft, warm arms around his neck, said in voice broken with emotion: "I will take the dollar. darling"
 Arthur looked up suddenly and saw that Ethel's eyes were suffused with tears. Kissing them gently away, and splitting the salt water out of his mouth while her head was again resting trust fully on his shirt-front, he said: "I knew you would see I was right" and handed her the dollar.
 This happened on the 14th of Decem Der. On the 10th Arthur spent $16 40 to pay a bill for billiards and drinks that ne had " "sawed-off" for.

Gratis, have combined to bring the
nation to this pass. Late as it Is, II
is re-assuring to the people of
America that the colossal prodiga-
lity heretofore obtaining in the die
posal of their own and their child
ren's heritage is going TO be, If pos
sible, put an end to. The example
of our big neighbor is one that
should be laid to heart by this
Kingdom. Perhaps in no country
in the world, proportionately to the
population and extent of territory,
is the land parcelled out SO un-
equally, and so regardlessly. of ma
tional interests, as in these Hawaiian
Islands. The statesman Of the fu-
turc will have to engage this great
wrong in life and death struggle.
For country wholly dependent
upon its soil, there can be no ques-
tion paramount to the land question.
