GENERAL LEE.


1T is the fate of the defeated side IN
civil wars that one leader represents the
lost cause. All the rest are buried in OBJ
liyion. The world reckons little and re-
mem bers less those who represent dead Is
sues or disastrous revOlts. The civil side
of the Confederacy Will fill a small space
in history, but tho record OF Its military
achievements viii cover many pages. Its
representative will not be Jefferson Davis,
but General Lee. No indetenslble cause
ever had so good defender as this conscl-
entous and capable leader, and few
battles for the right had better one. For
three years he bafied the plans and routed
the armies of successive Union command
ers. IL is true that he had fewer men and
more limited resources; 1t IS true that he
utilized his opportunities with the rarest
skill and wisdom. but it IS also true that
with inferior lines and friendly popula-
ton a general has great advantages. IL
neither detracts from the fame nor i'm
pairs the estimate of this consummate sol
der that he was beaten by Grant. Great
as he was, be met a greater and found his
master.
1.-The eliminating triumph of General
Grant was that he received and returned
the sword of Lee. The one typifed the
victory and the perpetuity of the Union,
the other that It's defenders forever after
would be those who with equal and un-
equalled courage had fought 10 save, and
to destroy II.
Grants claims upon the gratitude of
his couutrymen are many. He will have
peculiar remembrance for having, with
President Lincoln. Immediately recognized
that the republic must live es the fathers
had founded it. American liberty IS in
trenched i'll the indissoluble Union OF SOW
ereign States and cannot exist with
subject provinces. Above Belmont
Vicksburg, above the campaign in
the West and Appomattox IN the
East, rise the inestimable services which
he rendered in the peace and reunion OF
his country, when he threw himself and
his fame between President Andrew John
sons scheme of vengeance and the Con-
federate leaders he had paroled. and when
again he threatened TO draw his sword 10
prevent transfer by the same President
to the same rebel leaders of the power
they had lost and the government they
had tried TO oyerturn.
THE tendrils OF loyalty and love stretch
from this monument to every soldier 4
grave in the land. The members of the
Grand Army of the Republic who have
gone before and those who are here await
ing the summons present arms to-day TO
the memory OF their old commander. This
imperial city proudly and afectionately
assumes the custody of his remains. The
people called from the absorbing cares OF
life by his natal day and this solemn cere-
mony take up again their burdens with
lighter hearts and brighter hopes tor them
selves, their children. and their children

achievements of Ulysses ). Grant"

LIE GOVERNMENTS PLEDGE.

What. then, is the significance of sill
yer dollar? IL ;s the actual value or the
silver, and an implied promise OF the gov
eminent contained IN the stamp that IT
will make good the difference between
such value and that of its gold dollar. IL
Is 20 cents i'll actual value aud note by
implication of 80 ceuts. IL the United
States exchanges the silver dollar for gold
directly after 1t Is issued (as illustrated
aboye) the implied note is imme-
diately redeemed. So long as the
silver coin Is III circulation the note
Is outstanding. and when the United
States redeems il with gold and then re-
issues 1t, there IS renewal or the note.
Ii the silver dollar had its true name writ
ten upon its face, instead OF the words
lone Dollar,n these words would be used:
This is 10 cents worth Of silver, and the
United States will pay TO the bearer on de-
mand So cents, making one dollar" The
idea is Just the same as though the govern
ment were to issue 20 cents worth or silver
in bullion and attach thereto its note for
80 cents, such note to be void II detached.
Ii can now be seen that 1t is as ridiculous
TO suppose that the government makes the
difference between the bullion value OF
silver and the face value of the coin as 1t
would be to suppose that the government
made the difference between the value or
the paper on which It's ordinary note Is
written and the face value OF the note. In
either case, all that the government gains
is the credit of the receiver OF its issues.
However. there is this difference between
the two obligations. With paper money

Judgement of the debt in customary form.

THE CITIZENS TRUST.

even this doubtful acknowledgment OF the
obligation is liable to be swept away by
some legislative trick of legerdemain. abro-

silver, and leaving every holder OF silver
coin with only ~ cents for every such
dollar in his possession. Is this stable

demption would be accomplished. Silver

The nivialon OF rims.

The division of time into hours was
practiced among the Babyionians from
remote antiquity, but it was Hipparchus,
the philosopher, who introduced the
Babylonian hour into Europe. The seq
agesimal system Of notation was chosen
by that ancient people because there Ia
no number having so many divisions as
sixty. The Babylonians divided the
daily journey of the sun, the ruler of the
day, into twenty-four parasangs. Each
parasang or hour was subdivided into
sixty minutes, and that again into sixty
seconds. They compared the progress
made by tho sun during one hour at the
time Of the equinox to the progress
made by good walker in the same
period Of time, both covering one para
Sang, and the course Of the sun during
the full equinoctial day was fixed at
twenty-four parasangs.-London Tit
