The great commander whom We all loved
80 well,
Wearing his matchless honors modcstly,
Comes to the limit God has fixed tor him,
And passes gently to the eternal world.
AT council board, the trusted chief aud
friend;
When battle-felds blushed red with
deeper hue
Than wine could give-the thunderbolt
Though mute forever now his bloodlsss
lips,
Yet history shall speak for him, his record
write,
And place his name and glory higher still
Above oblivion's dust and touch of time.
There men shall pause to read his death
less fame,
And tell their children how iu darkest
days,
He laLored for his land till all was lost;
Then keep unstained the guerdon of his
soul,
Patience in peace, esteemed of former foes,
And sweet affection of the hosts he led
God rest thee general, on his table lands.
Bathcd in the sunlight of unending day.

THE BISHOPS PRAYER.


1T was during The 125 days
fight between Dalton and Atlanta, y
said Major Charles Vandarford, in
one of his delightful strains OF
"reminiscences yesterday, "that |
saw one Of the finest exhibitions
of prieslly courage that | know of
history ever havin g recorded. We
were in the bitches Tor the night.
Twilight had not yet fallen, and
the batteries of The enemy were
playing upon rs from the other
side OF a fertile Georgia valley. As
| rode with another staff officer
along the line Of breastworks,
could see our hardy solGiers MIN,
bly, belaking themselves to close
cover, as the range of the APP
proaching guns grew nearer the
proper mark.
"At the end of the entrench-
ment WAS IA booth, roughly con
structed with poles and covered
with heavy boughs. Beneath il
were the officers of the command,
and in their midst old Bishop A.
l.. p. Green was standing, praying
for the success of the cause. He
had just returned from Nashville
and his words were filled with a
new earneStneSs.
A at once a cannon ball struck
the corner of the booth and com.
plelely demolished it. The heavy
poles fell over the men and sever
al were painfully wounded. A
bough brushed my face, causing
the blood to come. Not a twig
touched The Bishop, however, and
he lost not one word from his
prayer. The men scarcely moved.
He prayed for our friends and our
enemies, who held lis in contempt
and scorn, and he prayed for the
coming OF Gods kingdom, even in
The time of war. | wanted the
PRAYER 10 come 10 a close for the
Yankees were getting heir range.
and did not know how soon the
next ball would carry us all away,
but the Bishop prayed on, needless
OF he cannOnading.
"When he had finished tie stars
were begiunlng to shine. The
great guns were silent and the
Yankee band began TO play The
Star Spangled Banner They re-
peated it. Then our band played
Star Spangled Banner ITSELF and
so they continued exchanging
courtesies until far after midnight.
The next morning was the signal
lOr renewal of the attack and
many brave uihern boy lost
his life that day."

MISSISSIPPI.
One Of the Best All-Round States In the
UNION.

Magnolia Gazette,
Capt. j. f. Merry, the we'll
known railway passenger agent of
Manchester, Iowa, gentleman
who has Travelled extensively and
Is a close observer, says "Missis-
sippi is the best all-round State in
the Union,n and we believe he is
correct. The climate il salubrious
and we have every variety of soil
adapted, not only TO the produc-
tion OF cotton, corn, sugar cane,
hay, oats, rice, peas and potatoes,
but TO almost every other com
modify used either for the food or
raiment of man. There is more
rainfall here than in any other
State and grass of all kinds grows
rapidly, rendering it The best dai-
ry country in the world. Beauli-
lul streams trckle through the
forests, or meanders along the
grassy meadows. The water IN
the pine hills is clear as crystal
and every few hundred yards
beautiful sites tor cotton, wooden
and paper mills, are to be found,
awaiting northern skill and capi-
tai to utilize them. Live stock do
well here and with proper atten-
tlon the rearing of cattle and
sheep would be exceedingly profit
able, as nine months of the year
The pasture affords excellent grass,
and the cane. breaks give food dur
ing the winter months. In short,
Mississippi is the best Slate in
this or any other country, and ii
our northern friends doubt it, let
them come and prove the asser-
lion by making their ZONES with

THE INCREASE OF THE NEGROES.

The INCREASE OF THE NEGROES
Much discussion is going on re-
garding the increase of the colored
people during The last ten years
1t is admitted that the census OF
1870 and that of 1880 give incor-
rect returns in regard TO the negro
population, the count Of 1870 be-
ing too small, and that of 1880 be-
ing too large. But this is not any
fair basis of comparison with ref
erence to the present rate Of in
crease. The explanation of the
comparatively small rate of IN
crease reported in 1890 is due 10
special causes, the principal of
which is the mortality of the
blacks. This is II per thousand in
the Southern Slales if they live
in The country. and from 30 10 40
per thousand where they dwell in
cities. The comparatively slow
increase of The colored people is
due to the increased mortality
that comes from their living in nm
healthy quarters OF the cities,
where they are taken sick and die.
The negro is at his best in The
country, and under any other
treatment yields readily to the
white race in his powers of endur-
ance-BoStOn Herald.

The following is the way The New
York Herald defines the pension
swindle:
In 1862 an Iowa man on his way
10 join his regiment stepped off a
log while crossing a stream and
caught cold. He never saw the
regiment and never did any SER
vice. But he got pension of four
dollars a month, was rerated and
got six, then eight, then twenty
four, and at last by hocus pocus,
deception and collision, fifty dol.
lars. His business partner was
examining surgeon, ard that is
where The hocus pocus process
came in.
This Is what the Republicans
call showing gratitude for the vet
Grams who fought for the flag. And
on just such rogues hundreds OF
thousands of dollars are spent. In
The mean time The poor fellows
who faced death get eight dollars
per month, and have 10 diyvy with
the pension sharks at Washington.

WHY POVERTY EXISTS. MIR. Car
negie boldly asserts The probability J
that .nineteen-twenIIeths of the 50
called charity Otto day is unwisely
spent-'so spent, indeed, as tc
produce the very evils which il
proposes TO mitigate or cure
Surely this is a statement which
he will, upon fuller experience
and reflection, cheerfully retract.
No matter what efforts may be
made by philanthropists and social
economists for the removal of pov.
erty, we must make up our minds
that poverty in one shape or the
other will always exist among us.
The words of Christ will ever be
verified: "The poor we have al
ways with YOU" As well attempt
to leeislate vice out of existence as
to legislate poverty and suffering
out of The world. London is the
richest city in The world, ii Is also
the poorest. Berlin with a popu-
lation OF 100000 has 100000 liv-
ing from hand TO mouth and verg-
ing on destiiution. Ii is IN accor-
dance with the economy of Divine
Providence that men should exist
in unequal conditions in society, in
order TO the exercise Of benevolent
virtues. Moreover sickness and
death will come upon the bread
winner, and wife and child have
their whole support suddenly
snaiched away. Disasters like
those of Johnstown and The recent
shocking losses Of life in The Penn
sylvania mines will leave hundreds
of widows and orphans no alterna-
tive but charity.-Cdrdinal Gibbons

"But you can't want a dollars

One evening when we had com.
pany the talk fell upon this very
subject, and Mr.. Bowser promptly
observed
"A wife has just as much right

10 enforce this right"
"You make Your wife an allow

fair prospects OF q relief OF the coal
famine in the south and west by the
shipment OF coal from this city. The
rivers which lave been too low for boat
ing purposes for scveralmonths are ris-
ing and an effort will be made TO send
out enough coal to relieve the present
wants OF the south at least. The tow
boat Seven Sons, started with six barges
this morning for East Liverpool, O., and
others will get out ii there is rise OF
one or two iept more. The stage at noon
was seven feet one inch.
At the present time the harbor is
blocked with coal bsrgcs and fully
100000 bushels are awaiting boat
ing stage OF water.
