Tine sest Battles of the War.

John c. Ropes in an article on 1.-The
War as We See 1t Now" printed IN
lScri57aer's, is responsible for the follow
ing:
The national instinct on this subject
is perfectly correct. 1t was at Gettys-
burg and Chickamauga that our Amerl-
can armies were at their best and did
their best. Never were they-either be-
fore or after those memorable engage
ments-so strong, so well differed. so
fierce, so determined to win, so resolved
not to yield. They were then, we re-
peat, at their best-containing none but
seasoned troops, under veteran officers,
Injured to war, both armies confident OF
victory, and pretty nearly, taking ali
things together, equally matched And
no one can read the story of those great
battle without being proud of his coun-
try and his race, for never was there
more resolute and obstinate and gallant
fighting done, nor ever were severe losses
more unshrinkingly borne. Nor can 1t
be truly said of either of these battles
that the beaten army did not fight as
hard and as long as its more successful
antagonist. There is glory enough for
all Hence it is fitting that both fields
Gettysburg and Chickamauga-should
be dedicated to the perpetual remem-
brance of the great battles SO worthily
fought there

A Wonderful Bronze PagOGa.

A missionary who has settled in the
province of Sz-Chuan, Central China,
and who has visited the great Buddhist
peak, Mount Omel, describes the temples
around the base as still showing many
wonderful works of art. Near the foot
of the mountain there still stands a
pagoda OF bronze fifteen stories high, be-
leved to be upward of a thousand years
old. From the ground to the polished
ivory tip this immense structure is liter
ally covered with delicate figures of
men, beasts, birds and reptiles. Of fig
ures of Buddha there are no less than
400 within the province, most of them
in the immediate vicinity of the sacred
peak.

4 Huge Stone.

At Baalbec. in Syria. the traveller sees
at the quarry, nearly ready to be moved
from the pillars that support it, a ston,
71x14x13 feet, containing -, 922 cubic
feet. And this stone has waited for
more than 1000 years. There are four
stones nearly as large, which have been
transported mile or more and put into
the foundations of the Temple Of the
Sun. The ancients did know how TO
handle big stones, and we have not vet

The late expression of Mr..
Cleveland against the free coin
age of silver has been widely
commented upon and criticised
by both parties For our part
we entirely agree with him that
"free and unlimired coinage is
reckless experiment" The fol-
loving letter written to the
Nashville American is repa5lish-
ed by us as throwing cousidera-
BILE light on the subject OF free
coinage. We find that this mat
ter is not understood by one
man in a dozea. We add that
"senioragr' means a toll or de-
duction on bullion presented at
the mint fer Coinage. Read the
letter.
"Judging from the widely va
wing comments on Cleyeland's
silver letter, there is one phase
OF the subject that has escaped
notice. Free coinage Of silver"
as used by Mr., Clevelanu, means
! given to every one outside OF the
United States the right to bring
his silver bullion to our minrs

From Agra.

Editors HERALD:
We hear a great deal said about Al
lance regulators. Is it to be Won
dered at if they are, when we have
such gigantic examples set by corpor-
ations and approved by the existing
powers. Judge not that ye be not
judged, for with what Judgment ye
judge, ye shall be judged, and the
same things do ye yourselves.
For instance the y. p. r. r. Co.
borrowed $6O,000,000 of Uncle Sam
about a quarter of century ago, and
who knows Of the company ever pay
ing back one dollar of 1t. The debt
now amounts to about $I30, 100000.
If the mortgaged farmers could get
their indebtedness set off that way.
there would not be so many sheriff
deeds to be made. How about the
millions of railroad stock exchanged
for good bonds, and the stock repre-
sented to be worth dollar for dollar,
and then by a concocted mortgage
scheme, have the stock prove to be
worthless. Ifsuch as this is not equal
to reputation, would like to know
what misrepresentation and getting
out of obligations is. It looks reason
able that if the stock is made worthless
through a concocted scheme, that the
good bonds ought to be too, or else
the parties who gave the bonds own
the road. If a man goes to the bank
and offers to exchange a note secured
by mortgage on horse for money,
and represents his note to be good
worth dollar for dollar when it comes
due, 1t does not release him, if it turns
out that the security had q prior
mortgage on it; if be controlled the
courts he might get out of it, but If
equity and justice is rendered he will
have TO make good the loss (which is
generally the case with the farmer"
and while 1t is right that we should
be honest in small matters it is also
right that we should be in gigantic
ones.

engage in any legitimate business and

Thanksgiving.


To-day is Thanksgiving. day set
apart by the proclamation of the Presi-
dent of these United States, supple.
mented by edicts from our Governors
This annual festival has been eelebra-
ted ever since the good old days of
the Pilgrim fore-fathers. For many
years the custom was local one, OBJ
served mainly IN the New England
states, until in 1862. President Lincoln
by proclamation. urged the people of
the Union TO meet at their respective
places Of worship. Since that time
rs year succeeded year custom has es-
tablIshed the last Thursday in Novem-
Der. as day of Thanksgiving.
The following is President Harri-
sons proclamation for this year:
By the President of the United
States.
A PROCLAMATION.
1t is very glad incident of the
marvellous prosperity which has
crowned the year now drawing to a
close that its helpful and reassuring
touch has been felt by all our people.
It has been as wide as our country,
and so special that every home has
felt its comforting influence. It is too
great to be the work of mans power
and too particular to be the device of
his mind. To God. beneficent and
all-Wise, Who makes the labors of men
to be fruitful, redeems their losses by
His grace, and the measure of whose
giving is as much beyond the thoughts
of men as it is beyond His deserts,
the praise and gratitude of the peo-
pie of this favored nation are justly
due.
Now, therefore, I, Benjamin HarrI-
son, President of the United States of
America. do hereby appoint Thursday,
the 26th pay of November, to be day
of thanksgiving to God for the boun-
ties of His providence, for the peace
IN which we are permitted to enjoy
them, and for the preservation of
those institutions of civil and religious
liberty which He gave our fathers the
wisdom to devise and establish and US
the courage to preserve.
Among the appropriate observances
of the day are rest from toll, worship
in public congregation, the renewal
of family ties about our American fire.
sides. and thoughtful helpfulness to-
wards those who suffer lack of body
or of spirit
In testimony whereof, I have here
unto set my hand and caused the seal
of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington
this twenty-sixth day of November
in the year of our Lord, one thousand
eight hundred and nlnety-one, and Of
the independence of the United States
the one hundred and sixteenth.
