An English view Of General Grant.

The General sketches his comrades and
contemporary commanders in fine and
fair spirit, and the name of Mr.. Lincoln
never appears without bringing with it
something to the honor of that noble man.
Perhaps the most interesting pages are
those which relate The celebrated meeting
of two worthy antagonists near Appomat-
tox Courthouse, when one had to offer and
the other receive surrender. Grant was
gentleman every inch, and nowhere do the
qualities which constitute that character
come out in greater force than in his inter-
views with General Lee. The whole story
should be read as il has been written by one
of the actors, and then it will be seen that
the spirit and bearing of these great men
are fit to stand forever as shining example
of courtesy and right feeling. Lee had done
his utmost and had failed Grant had been
triumphant; but l felt" he writes, " like
anything rather than rejoicing at the down
fall of foe who had fought so long and
valiantly, and had suffered so much for
cause, though that cause was. believe, one
of the worst for which people ever fought.
and one for which there was the least ex-
cuse." None of these feelings, however,
except those of grave regret, appeared in
the interview. 1t was conducted, on both
sides, in manner and substance as became
real heroes, and the story, as here told, re-
bounds to the honor and manlinesS of both.
No fair-ninded man can put down these
memoirs without feeling that the rare ma
ture of General Grant would have re-
manned unknown to the world had they
not been written.-London Telegraph.

A Marvellous Cyclone.

gave in last Saturdays RECORD UNION
cut and brief account of the celebrated
Dakota cyclone which occurred in 1884,
but it held nc comparison with one which
Bill Nye tells about in the Chicago Ne,cs,
which was as follows:
Then gentleman named Bean, of west
ern Minnesota, a man who went there in
an early day and homesteaded it when his
nearest neighbor was fifty miles away,
spoke of cyclone that visited his country
before the telegraph or railroad had pene-
trated that part of the State Mr.. Bean
said it was very clear up to the moment
that he noticed cloud in the northwest no
larger than mans hand. 1t sauntered
down in a southwesterly direction like a
cyclone that had all summer to do its
chores in. Then it gave two quick snorts
and roar, wiped out of existence all the
farm buildings he had, sucked the we'll
dry, soured all the milk in the milk house,
and spread desolation all over that quarter
section. But Mr.. Bean said that the most
remarkable thing-he remembered was this !:
He had dug about pint of angle worms
that morning intending to go over to the
lake toward evening and catch few perch.
But when the cyclone came ii picked up
those angle worms and drove them head
first through his new griudstone without
injuring the worms or impairing the grind
stone. He would have had the grfndstone
photographed, he said, if the angle worms
could have been kept still long enough.
He said that they were driven just far
enough through to hang on the other side

AFTER Forty YEARS CoURrsHIP.-The
history of the troubles of couple who
were married last week, in village near
Lewiston, has something in it which most
emphatically illustrates the truth of the old
adage that the course of true love never
runs smooth. The bride was lady of 81
years, whose hair is silver, and the groom
a few years her senior. Their courtship
has extended over a period of forty
years. A Lewiston gentleman who is ac-
auainted with the bride says that when
she was Is years old she fell in love with
her present husband, and made her
preparations to marry on her nine
tenth birthday Her father had died
when she was little girl, leaving an inva-
lid mother, with no one to depend upon for
support but this daughter. When the old
lady heard of her intended marriage she
put her foot right down upon the matter,
and said she should not wed. Her mother
was firm in her purpose, and all efforts to
bring about reconciliation were unavail-
ing. Tine wore on, and the two lovers
kept up secret correspondence with each
other Neither of them married. Not
many months ago the mother died, and
now the wedding bells are ringing and the
couple are enjoying honeymoon which
has been deferred for nearly half century.

had no one to whom to appeal. The
thought struck him that he had lost his
reason during his illness, and that he was
SO imbecile that he did not know it. A
perspiration burst from his brow, and he
sat silent and thoughtful. As soon as his
wife returned he thrust the mysterious
volume into her hands, crying out, Read

make any sense out of the first page or so,

SENSIBLE ADVICE.

ORANGES on Sour STocK.-Some six or
seven wears ago s. B. Bliss obtained from
Florida some sour orange stock on which
to experiment with choice varieties of
oranges here in Riverside. He planted the
trees and budded them in various varieties,
among which was the Washington Navel.
This year these trees are in bearing, and
Messrs. Twogood & Edwards have placed
on our table some of the fruit from these
trees. II is little late in the season to
carefully test oranges as they are now past
their prime, but these oranges seem to stand
the test remarkably well in comparison
with the same varieties grown on orange
stock. From the fruit before US we are
bound to say that the influence of the stock
on the fruit. which is so marked in the
case of the China lemon stock, does not
show itself in that way with the sour
orange. The fruit appears to be as fine
texture and as fine favored as that grown
on orange stock. The influence of the China
lemon root on the fruit was so marked in
making it coarse that our fruit-growers
were afraid that the influence of the sour
orange stock would be the same or similar
There is no doubt but that the root does in
huence the fruit In the case of the lemon
and China lemon this influence is not IA
vorable. If the sour orange stock has a
tendency TO produce an inferior fruit that
fact has yet to be demonstrated in this sec
ton. The fruit, so far as we have got, does
not prove such to be the case-Press aud

Colds and Coughs frequently develop
into the gravest maladieS OF the throat

AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL.
Nothing else gives such immediate relief
and works so sure cure in all affections
of this class. That eminent physician,
Prof. f. Sweetzer, of the Maine Medical
School, Brunswick, Me-, SAYS
'Medical science has produced no other ano-
dyne expectorant so good as AYERS CHERRY
PEoToRAL. Ii is Invaluable for diseases of the
throat and lungs"
The same opinion is expressed by the
well-hnown DR.. L. j. Addison, of Chicago,
ILL.,, who says:-
81 have never found, in thirty five years of
continuous study and practice of medicine, any
preparation of so great value as AYERS CHERRY
PICTORIAL, for treatment of diseases of the
throat and lungs. 1t not only breaks up colds
and cures severe coughs, but is more effective
than anything else in relieving even the most
serious bronchial and pulmonary affections"

WATER AS ANTI-FAr-It has been q
matter of extensive belief in France that
the drinking of water in considerable u IN
titles has a tendency to reduce obesity by
increasing the activity of oxidations in the
system and favoring the burning away of
accumulated fat. The error Of this idea
has just been shown by Dr.. Deboye, who
has proven that the quantity of water taken
has no influence on nutrition or body
weight SO long as the solid diet remains
unchanged,

AYERS
Cherry PeCtoral

Is not new claimant for popular conf
dence, but medicine which is to-day
saving the lives of the third generation
who have come into being since it was
first offered to the public.
There is not household In which this
invaluable remedy has once been in
troduced where its use has ever been
abandoned, and there Is not n person
who has ever given it proper trial
for any throat or lung disease suscep-
tible of cure, who has not been made
well by it.
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL has,
in numberless instances, cured obstinate
cases of chronic Bronchitis, Laryngitis,
and even acute Pneumonia, and has
saved many patients in the earlier stages
of Pulmonary Consumption. 1t Is q
medicine that only requires to be taken in
small doses, is pleasant to the taste, and Is
needed in every house where there arc
children. as there is nothing so good as
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL for treat
ment of Group and Whooping Cough.
These are all plain facts, which can be
verified by anybody, and should be 30
membered by everybody.
