GREAT MEN.

l believe the first test of a truly great
man in his humility. l do not mean
by humility doubt of his own power,
or hesitation in speaking his opinions !:
but right understanding of the rela,
ton between what he can do and saw.
and the rest of the worlds savings and
doings. All great men not only know
their business, but usually know that
they know it; and are not only right in
their main opinions, but they usually
know that they are right in them, only
they do not think much of themselves
on that account. Arnolfo knows he
can build good dome at Florence:
Albert Durer writes calmly to one who
has found fault with his work, s.It can.
not be better done;" Sir Isaac Newton
knows that he has worked out q prob
lem or two that would have puzzled
anybody else; only they do not expect
their fellow-men, therefore, to fall
down and worship them. They have
, curious undersense of powerlessness,
feeling that the greatness is not i'm
hem, but through them; that. thew
;ould not do or be anything else than
iod made them-and they see some |
hing divine aud God-made in every |
'ther man they meet. and are endless. !
Y, foolishly incredibly mercifnl.-John !

A CORRESPONDENTS STORY UPSET
BY GEN. EARLY.
From the Jeffersonian, Va, Republican,
YELLOW SULPHUR SpRrNos

lfrom the Jeffersonian, Va, Republican,
| YELLOW SULPHUR SPRINGS, ,
July 9, 1886.
10 me Editor Of the Lynch6ury Mews :
IL is very remarkable that any re-
spectacle southern paper, especially a
virginia paper, should copy that absurd
story, which comes from q northern
paper-the Boston Traveller L believe
about Gen. Lee seeking to sacrifice his
lie during the closing days of the war.
III zen. Lee Intentionally sought death
Dy unnecessarily exposing himself to
the enemy's fire and had succeeded.
would not that have been suicide as
palpably as if he had blown his brains
ont with pistol, or had thrown him
self on his sword? Yet it is well kno wu
that he was Christian. AS such could
ne have contemplated suicide? If any
impression existed amoug Gen Lees
omcers that he contemplated intention-
aiiy sacrificing his life, never heard of
IL. IL Is true that he often exposed him
sell to very great dangers, as did Stone-
wall jackson, but it was from a high
sense of duty, and to enable him 10
render his army as efficient as possible
against the immense odds with which
1t had to contend, by supervising ali
movements. AS it is said that he con.
templated such purpose at Cold Har-
Dor, Will state that at the first Cold Har-
Dor began his brilliant triumphs over
McCielians army in the seven days'
battles around Richmond, and at sec
ond Cold HarbOr Grants army was
repulsed with such fearful loss that
when 1t was ordered to renew the At.
tack 1t refused to move. Twas i'm cor.
slant communication with Gen. Lee in |
person while the two armies confronted
each other ut second Cold Harbor, and
was at his headquarters two or three
times, but | never suspected him of q
purpose to sacrifice his life. The fact
IS, That the campaign from the Wilder
ness to James river, in May and June,
1904, was the most brilliant campaign
of modern times, and resulted i'm a
series OF triumphs for General Lees
army which inflicted on the opposing
lrmy loss greater than its own mum.
'ers. No, while Gen. Lee did expose
iiulseif IL very greatly, often to the great I
iistfess OF his officers and soldiers, he I
lid not seek death because he foresaw
leieat, but he determined to share the [
ate OF his people in victory or defeat. {

The Poets Death Song.

The recent death of Paul Hamilton Hayne,
the nobest poet the south has produced
lends peculiar interest to his lofty strain OF
hnal triumph which appeared in the Nav
number OF Harper's Magazine. Mr.. Hayne
early devoted himself to literature, and his
name is associated with nearly all the best
American magazines, especially the southern
ones, several of which, though short-lived,
rose to eminence under his editorship. When
thewar deprived him of his fortune he stillcon-
tlnued true to his standard. His picturesque
little home near Augusta. furnished with
what ancestral goods he managed to save in
the destruction OF Charleston, has been the
scene OF his labors for twenty years. Hay-
ing experienced all the phases of prosperity
and adversely, his lingering decline with
made him a calm and fearless
student OF the coming change. The result is
beautifully shown in this poem, which.
though written two years ago, by u strange
coincidence was published just before the
writer was permitted to verify ITS truth, We
repeat it for those who may not have seen il
IN Harper's Magazine.

her steam valves and slept in peaceful

happy young folk from Columbia

their way to the boat, some riding

DOING AS WE'LL AS THEY GOULD.

Gratis in congress that at this session
they have not reformed all the abuses
which have got fastened, like barnacIes.
on the government during the long re-
publican misrule. Well, the democrats
have done something. Not so much as
they, ought, that we grant; not SO
much as they would have done had not
the republicans in house and senate SO
vigorously opposed every reform. But
considering that the need for demo-
cratic reform comes from the persistent
plling up OF abuses by the republicans.
ought not the Tribune to be a little
more modest?
