a LAST REVIEW.
When will it be ?

When will 1t be
When the babes that are held ND to-
day by their mothers arms to watch
the blue coated battallions of the Grand
Army OF the Republic pass, will have
grown to manhood and womanhood
when these strong men treading 10
martial music now will have passed
into Memory and into History. Let
me picture, if l can, the march of the
last survivor of this loyal band of
brave men.
The same thrilling airs will fill the
world with melody the fife and the
drum will stir to patriotic response the
m%ultitudes that throng the thorough
fares.
There will be a long line of glisten-
ing bayonets and glittering uniforms ;
men of letters, statesmen, diplomatic
dignitaries and civilians, who will
pass in review.
But the eyes of the multitude will
give this gaudy display but a passing
glance. They will eagerly scar the
procession for the figure of a bent and
lettering old man.
The cry goes up
Here he comes!"
Far up and down the lines of 2
people the cry will be taken up-"He
comes! He comesl"
Yes he comes! A bent and tottering
old man, the last member of the Grand
Army, with feeble steps is passing in
review. AS the veteran goes by heads
uncover and a solemn hush falls upon
the multitude. Every eye is turned
upon this last survivor of that great
struggle that made the world anew.
The thousands that once filled his
ranks lie among the winrows of the
dead, piled up and down the peaceful
valleys and on the green hillsides. The
bullets of an armed enemy passed
harmlessly, in open battle, over many
a comrades head, but this ambushed
enemy, Death, lone escape. One by
one they have dropped out of line, and
by loving comrades were laid away on
couches of everlasting rest. Now, in
solitary march, weighed down by years,
comes the last survivor, stepping to
the martial sound of an invisible bu-
gle. He reaches the Grand Stand.
Every head uncovers; every eye mois-
tens the sky darkens. Down the
shadowy sunset avenue he passes /; the
cloud covered gates slowly unfold. He
enters where bivouac the dead ION
Fame's eternal camping ground" the
last member of the greatest army that
ever fought in the hottest of human
causes, on this much suffering earth.

DEFAULT IN
The East Tennessee Railway Company
Fails to Pay Tn.

NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-The East Ten
nessee railroad has defaulted on the
first extension 5 per cent. bonds to the
extent of s 5000, 900.
AT the company's headquarters il
was given out that the cause of the de-
fault was due to the great depression
of business in the South. The bonds
may remain in default for six months
before foreclosure proceedings can be
begun.
1t is expected hat the failure to pay
this interest will be followed by q pro.
posal to reorganize at the expense OF
the bondholders.
Henry w. Clews explained that the
business of the road, like that of all
other Southern roads, has been greatly
affected by the small and poor cotton
crop. The recent disaster of the Rich.
mond Terminal, of whicht the East Ten.
nessee was a componentpart, has much
to do with the default.

Ed. Biggs, the forger, who will be.so
well remembered in this city for his
forgeries and subsequent escape from
our Jail, was killed near Bowling
Green, Friday, Jan'y Goth. Since his
escape from the Cynthiana Jail he had
been at his fathers, near Rowletts,
where he staid till the day before his
death, when he boarded q train in
tending to go to California. This was
the last seen of him alive; the next
day his body was found fearfully man.
gled. 1t could not be identified and
was buried in the pottcrs field. On
Monday his father came to Bowling
Green, and hearing talk of the un-
known man who had been found dead
on the railroad, asked TO see the arti-
cles taken from his person. He at once
recognized them as the belongings of
his wayward son. About three years
ago Biggs, after having gotten into re-
peated trouble on account Of a mania
for forgery, was tried for lunacy and
committed to the Hopkinsville asylum.
He later on escaped and cIntinned
his forgeries.

of the arts of the sensationalist, or the
tricks of the pulpit mountebank. He
was no weather-cock, but compass.
His needle never DETECTED from the

his morning dawn. He might trem-
bic, but never the rock under his feet.
The pillows of unbelief broke around

frightened him from his foundations.
He smiled at the cold scorn Of scepti-

the frozen hearth of the aurora bore

righteousness. He never courted pop

no dancing will-o'-the-wisp, but a

And shall be till die"
