in his writing. His admiration for woman,
his knightly courtesy, his Kind heart, his
honesty of purpose, his entire lack Of deceit
endeared him TO all. He did not count the
cost when he would favor IA friend; he let
the heart speak rather than the cold dicta-
ton of the Train. His death Is a loss to
journalism and TO the line of southern au.
thOrs of which he was an ornament; to his
family, to whom he was so affectiOnate and
kind; to the needy and distressed to whom
his charity was unbOunded, and to the still
lingering remains Of the old confederate
oldiers whose appeals to him for aid were
never made IN vain. The memory of battle
fields, of wind and rain, OF snow and storm.
or roar of cannon and the sharp fire OF
muskelry is a dream long past. The lone
vigils, the weary marches. the retreat into
Mexico, and the valley camp beneath Oriza-
ba's snOw-clad summit are all like visions of
the night, but to the humble writer the
character of John N. edwards is an ever
present living personality, the earth Is darker
since he left it, and Immortality becomes
more certain since he has entered upon its
%unending cycle. The intellect dies not, and
his genius in eternal realms yet exercises an
influence on earth. Although far from his
place of burial, far from old associations in
Lafayette county, that garden OF the state,
yet the writer of this will ever con slider IL
one of the rarest privileges TO have known
John N. Edwards and been his friend in life
and his admirer with all the sincerity OF
tried affection. To his grave in old Lafay-
cite may all who revere true hearts and
nobility of soul, turn AS to Mecca whereOn to
renew their vows of fidelity, love of home,
country, honor, truth, purity and friendship.

A Sci OF Phosghorescent fire, extending a far as the eve could reach,
a passed - tuesday last, lS5 niles east by north Of Cape Henlopen, by the
Allen LINE %ha steamship Manitoban, from Glasgow, now lying at Washington

"Eary on Tuesday night the heavens suddenly became overcast and
intensely dark n left the bridge temporarily, leaving Second Officer John
son in charge: l had hardly reached the chart DON when the cry of fire was
announced OF the sarboard bow, and rushed II the bridge and found the sea
to be like a mas OF flames. presenting a scene OF sublime grandeur. When
we a sea broke W. the bow of the vessel the drops of fire spread vel the
rigging u decks like the flying embers of a genuine confagration, where
sparks were driven by a strong wind. Everywhere o the decks we're found
tiny sparkling phosphorescent beads which did not disappear until the next
morning. For two hours tn vessel al steaming through this sea OF fire.

In the distance the sea appeared to be breaking on a strand, but a din Of the

This unusual. phenomenon has caused considerable Interest among
scientific men,a similar sea having been seen several months ago in the bay
OF Bengal which has puzzled the learned heads OF Europe. An elaborate rerort
will be prepared tor the photographic Office.
Lieut.: w. Conway, in charge of the Branch photographic Office, and
who has had vast experience n East Indies and in Japanese and Chinese

The sand bar just west of Lexington Is
getting to be a sort of sporting park. A game
of ball or q shooting match can be seen there
almost any time. Last Monday afternoon both
could have been and we re seen by about
eight or nine hundred people. First came
the shooting match in which there were fOuI
entries, and the score for ten balls was n
fOilows:-
Heathman.. ..........l 0 | ! l 0 0 1-6
Crumley.. o l o l l / 0 II
Sturges ...... .........1 0 l 0 l o.
Davis ..................O 0 0 0 0 0 o.
The crowd then went up to the bail game
between the w. M. A. nine and the Sweet
Springs Reds, and witnessed one of the best
games ever played at this place. Both sides
did some remarkably good playing but the
home club proved to be too much for the
visitors. Before the third inning had com
menced the lovers of the home team had
grave fears Of their favOrites meeting with a
bad defeat, but at the third inning, the boys
began to see their reputation fading away as
IL it were smoke and this put pew life into
them and they went 10 work with u vim.
During this inning they made five runs and
this 'sOrt'er ratified" the visitors and the
home team commenced to gain rapidly. The
visitors were so completely surprised at the
renewed energy of the ''boys" that they
could hardly play at all and the bows gave
them three straight '.shut outs" The bat
terry of both clubs were away above the aver
age of amateurs and the fielders also did
good, hard work. The score by innings was
as follows:-
W. NJ. A...... ........1 0 3 0 3 9 0 %--1a
Sweet Spring Reds 1 2 0 0 0 3 0 o.
As will be seen the home team did not take
their last inning.
