Above all other characteristics, how
ever, of Picking one thing stands out in
horrible prominence, and | have put this
off TO the last. Not to mention it would
be TO willfully omit tho most striking
color Of the picture. Imcan its filth. 1t

filthy place that can be imagined. In
decd, imagination must fall far short Of
the fact. Some of the daily sights of the
pedestrian in Picking could not hardly
be moro thar limited at by ono man TO
another in the smoking room. There Is
no sewer or ccsspool, public or private,
but the street; the dog, the pig and the
fowl are the ~scavengcrs; every now and
h you pass q man who goes along,
tossing the most loathsome of the refuse
into an open work basket on his back;
the SMELL are simply awful; tho city is
one colossal and uncleansed cloaca. AS
have said above, the first of tho two
moments of delight vouchsafed to every
visitor to the Celestial capital Is his first
sight of it. The second-though | must

Not long ago | corrected a laundering
statement which had gone tho round of
the press about n robbery of Raphaers
"Entombment" from the Church of San
Pietro, in Perugia, the fact being that the
picture was painted for another church,
from which it was removed in 1897 by
the French, who ultimately sent it to the
Vatican. 1t may interest some of my
readers to know, further, that the pict-
ure stolen from the Church of San Pic
tro, ut Perugia, was n reduced, though
extremely beautiful, copy Of the same

In a Hurry to Wash Up"

There are few things that destroy the
pleasure OF witnessing n dramatic repre-
sentation more than the hasty moving of
tho characters from their positions be-
fore the curtain has quite reached tho
floor, ut the end of an net. You SEQ n
villain shot down and killed ~instanter.
You see him mako one ~convulsivo move
ment and then straighten out, n very
dead corpse. You think to yourself:
well, thank heaven, he is dono for"
There are perhaps n few words from tho
leading man, who, with his smoking pis-
tol in his hand, takes the heroine to his
bosom. Then the curtain falls to slow
music. The bottom of the curtain is
perhaps two feet from the stage. when
the corpse begins to pull itself together,
preparatory to rising. Now, how can
you believe that the villain is disposed
of, and that he will not exercise a dis
turbing influence upon the fortunes of
the hero and heroine in future, when you
know that no was only pretending to be
dead2 1t is not only corpses that offend
in this way. Live people, when they
nave grouped themselves in an effective
tableau, should not allow the audience to
see them scuttling away to their dressing
rooms, because they are too impatient to
wait for the complete fall of tho curtain.

A ISLANDER.

1t is necessary to refute some OF the
infamous ISLANDERS perpetrated on Gene
raj Pickett by vile set OF straRglers.
These base men deserted their ranks and
gave rs an excuse that General Pickett
had given orders 10 his men TO scatter
and take care Of themselves that such
was his intention. General Pickett had
been engaged for four days before the
evacuation and had borne the brunt Of
the battle. When they started from
Petersburg they were almost exhausted
from hard fighting and had but one days
rations on hand, which, with the add
ton of one and half days supply
which they received at Farmville, was
oil they had during the entire eight
days. They were harassed by the enc
my's cavalry every step OF the way, and
despite their Generals constant efforts
could not be kept together. In the
fight at Sailors Greek the division was
almost entirely annihilated. The imam
of Gettysburg" and his Tenth Lee
gion sustained their well-earned repu-
tatlOn on tho retreat as they had on all
former occasions. To those who are
acquainted with the brilliant record Of
this gallant officer it is unnecessary to
say anything in his defence-his deeds
speak Tor themselves.

hDFot.
WOODS Y ROADS, Va, May !, 1899.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
A few years ago the General Assembly
of Virginia incorporated the Gloucester
Monument Association, the object of
which was to build monument TO the
memory of the Gloucester soldiers who
we're slain or died in service during the
late war. An executive committee Of
the association has had charge of the
task. After years of labor and toll, aid
ed by the prayers and smiles of the
Gloucester women and the assistance so
cheerfully rendered by the Glouces-
ter fathers and brothers and sons
and relations and friends Of the fallen
heroes, the monument will be erected at
Gloucester Courthouse, Va. The Peters
burg Granite-Quarrying Company took
the contract TO build it. Blocks OF
granite are ready to be sent down 10
erect the shaft. The names OF the dead,
with the rank, company, and regiment
of each, are carved on the monument
The monument is an assured fact to
the delight OF thousands, who will
witness the laying of the corner
stone on Wednesday, May sth,
with Masonic ceremonies, at Glou-
cester Courthouse. Preparations are
being made TO have q grand demon
stration. Many distinguished Virginians
are expected. Governor Eitzhugh Lee,
General L. L.. Rosser, and Colonel Ran
dolph Harrison have accepted an invl-
tation to be with us, and the last named
will deliver the Grafton. The West
Point Band will be with us to furnish
the music. The ladies will have re-
freshments on the ground
lis right to build the monument.
The heroes names should he handed
down to coming generations. We are not
ashamed TO record their deeds. Wewill
keep alive and cherish their memory.
Within two months after the Sth of May
themonumeDt will be completed. When
the finishing touch is made then minute
description can I've given, and we cherish
the hope that it can aud will be said
"the work is done, and we'll done"

After General Lee retired General Cor
don was imprisoned in like manner and
made a speech, but, like the first, il was
lost.
The troops were biyousclSed for day
or two near Appomattox Courthouse
waiting to lie pasoled, which occupied
some time. On the Wednesday following
westarted for our homes with our paroled
prisoners passes. The parting with many
OF our friends was sad indeed. We had
served side by side and fought together
for one cause for several years, and to-
day as we thought we perhaps parted
forever, we felt that we we're brothers
forced each TO go forth into tho world
alone, TO struggle with and perhaps be
cast about at the mercy Of the winds and
waves of adversely. We pursued our
ways homeward, sad enough that the
issue had been decided against us, but
each one determined that as such was
the case it was our individual duty to do
all in our power TO promote national
peace and prosperity.

GRANTS AAGNANIMITY.

General Grants magnanimity and
kind treatment to General Lee and his
soldiers demands our lasting admiration
and respect, yet We cannot place him as
greater general than Mcclellan.
Among the other general officers present
Oh the morning of the surrender were
Gordon, Longstreet, Fields, Malone,
Pickett, W. II. +. Lee. Stonewall,
Walker, and II. A. Wise. General Field
a tall, splendidly- formed officer, was
lately promoted to the command Of
Hoods division, having been since the
campaign Of 1862 disabled by Il severe
wound received at Manassas. His Old
brigade opened the battles OF the Chick
ahomny in 1862, he leading them. he
is a splendid cavalry officer, and though
he gave satisfaction while in the infantry,
it has been wondered why, when good
cavalry officers were so much needed,
he was kept from his fsyorite branch.

General r.. f., and commands a di-

reduced in point OF numbers and horses
that he could not make the mark he 9th

rest without other food than parched corn

we were as much exhausted as ever.
During the day We passed the Federal
prisoners in our hands, about 1900 in
number. Poor fellows, they must have
been nearly starved. 1t could not be
