VICTORY AND DEATH.
How the Surrender Of Leo WAs + sll0wed
by Lincoln's Assassination.


by Lincoln's Assassination.
From the 9th to the 14th of April, 1855,
were eventful, memorable days in the
country's history-days never to be for
gotten. On the 9th of April the news Of
Lees surrender reached the president On
the 18th an exultant throng went to the
White House to congratulate him, and
with him to rejoice over the triumph.
Full OF hope and happiness, with the con-
seriousness of difficulties overcome and du
ties successfully performed, his heart was
filed with visions Of rest, peace and hap
piness--and yet there lowered O cloud
over this hopeful, happy spirit. On the
morning of the 18th, directly after break
fasting with his family, and while await
ing the secretary Of war, Mr.. Lincoln was
observed to look very grave, and said to
some members of the cabinet standing by:
''Gentlemen, something serious is going
to happen. | have had a strange dream,
and have n presentiment such rs l have
had several times before, and always just
before some important event. But, he
addel, abruptly, "let us proceed to bust
ness" That same evening he was stricken
down by the assassin's hand.
[wHrrr1ER.l
He has done the work Of true man
Crown him, honor him. love him.
Weep over him, tears OF woman,
Stoop manifest brows above himi
For the warmest of hearts is frozen,
The freest Of hands is still;
And the gap in our picked and chosen
The long years may not fill.
No duty could overtake him,
No need his will outrln;
Or ever our lips could ask him,
His hands the work had done.
And he saw ere his eye was darkened
The sheaves of the harvest bringing;
And knew while his ear yet hearkened
The voice of the reapers singing.
Never rode to the wrongs redressing
worthcr paladn.
Shall he not hear tie blessing.
Good and faithful, enter inv

..wbat do Won think is the limit of speed

"What do you think is the limit of speed
in steam vesselsp
"Ah, there you are too much fer me.
They are building some 20-knot war ships
in England, and some of the English tor
pedo boats made even better time than
that. 1t is impossible to say what
the possibilities of the future are
in this direction. You see there must
be taken into consideration a number of
contending and conflicting forces. If we
increase the rate Of speed we must increase
the coal supply and lessen the armament.
There is a point beyond which the coal
supply cannot be increased if the vessel Is
to be run any distance without recoaling.
Nor can we lessen the weight of armament
beyond certain point. Machinery, OF
course, does a great deal For a time the
struggle was to get the greatest speed from
the Ilghtest machinery, but the disposition
now is to make the machinery a little
heavier, so that we have reached and passed
the limit of light machinery as applied to
the highest rate of speed. While | do not
believe we have yet reached the limit of
speed, think there is practical limit to it,
though there may not be one in theory.
But there is one element in ship building in
which we have gone to the utmost ex-
tremity, and that is in the combination of
ightness and strength in the construction
OF frames and hulls / dom see that we can
60 any further in this direction"
do you think the work of rebuilding the
navy will continue under the republican
administration 2"
"Oh, yes. There has been no partisan
ship i'll the work so far done. Republi-
cans and democrats alike voted for the
various bills that have been passed by con-
gress. | am confident there will be no
check in the work begun"
what do you think of the prospects of a
revival of shipbuilding in the United
St4tesg'
ut is very good. There was a strong
sentiment in the last session of congress in
favor of some law to encourage a revival of
our merchant marine. All the members
of the Atlantic coast states would
favor such a measure, AMI the
southern members, too, for there is
a prospect of a large increase of trade
along the Gulf coast with South America.
| think the next congress is almost certain
to do something to assist our shipping in
dustry. Look at France. What splendid
growth of their merchant marine during
the last few years! The French govern
ment has adopted a system Of bounties that
has been most successful. They allow so
much per ton for every vessel launched
from French ship-yards, and then so much
per ton for every 1000 mies run by che
vessel and so much per kilogram of ma
chinery put in. And the Italian govern
ment is even more liberal in her bOunties
than France. Both these countries have
reaped rich rewards from their liberality
toward their shipping interests"

The Wolf Driven from the Door.
From the Macon (Gd.) Telegraph.

From the Macon tGd.) Telegram.
When Officer Garfield was on his way to
the union depot yesterday morning at 5
o'clock, and when walking briskly along
H eel street, he heard woman's screams so
shrill and piercing that they almost froze
the marrow IN bis bones. He is not only a
good officer, but one Of the kindest-hearted
men in the world, and no woman can sound
the distress alarm In his bearing.
The screams proceeded apparently from
Mrs Caves cluster of houses, in rear of the
factory, in what is known as the fisll-pond
settlement. To that locality he hurried,
and at every step the screams grew louder
Visions of murdered women and chill iren
hoated upon the murky moving air as ne
went along. aud a chilling sensa lion began
to creep over his heart.
He found several inmates of the houses
getting out, and they directed him to one
of the houses near the alley that divides
the settlement. Finally he reached the
alley painting and blowing, and there on
the ground attired in her night clothes and
on her knees was negro woman screaming
at the top of her voice. The officer stopped
her mouth and asked her what was the
matter. She said she was happy over the
fact that the wolf that had made life
burden for so long time had at lest been
taken from her. For years she had been
the slave of wolf with claws as long
as your arm; that day after day
it had held her in tight embrace,
and with those long, cruel claws
had cut into her flesh TO the very bone.
Now he was gone. Harrison got elected
aud sent 900 people with torches and bells
and lots of fuss TO her house and took the
wolf away and shot him. When she awoke
Yesterday morning to find that the wolf
was not there to fasten his sharp claws into
her flesh she was so happy that she wanted
to pray, and the house wasn't big enough
for a prayer that was full of gratitude, and
she went out doors.
The officer left her with the opinion that
the woman was either fit subject for tie
asylum or the fool-killer, he did not know
