Success is not always the criterion of
merit. and the sons of the men OF 1861 may
comfort themselves with the reflection that
the misfortunes of the fathers do not argue
the baseness of their cause. Professor
Trent has evidently written with his face
turned towards the North. and however
much he may be 'patted on the back" by
the Atlantic Monthly and journals OF like
sentiment. he will never convince the peo-
pie of the South that they and their opin-
ions and actions deserve tho slurs be has
seen fit 10 cast upon them. 1t is great
misfortune that the young men OF the South
should be taught the views OF the Consti-
tuition upheld in this book. If these views
are right their fathers were wrong incon-
trovertibly wrong. Doubtless Professor
Trent thinks so, for he holds that 'seces-
sion was wrong in ITSELF" that It is ''obyi-
GUS now to any tyre in the theory % Of e poll
ties" Up. 1879. but this IS mere on-nand h as
e ever and such proof will be hard to find.

A MANUAL FOR OUR SONS.

A MANUAL FOR OUR SONS.
We need a manual TO put into the hands
of our sons which shall give from the point
of view of the Constitution itself full and
conclusive justification Of the Southern
fathers Of 1861 that the Southern sons OF
1892 may not be led 20 base their views Of
that great struggle upon the books of aliens.
Even as ] write tatteriDg review OF the
final volume (VfD of Won Holst's so-called
Constitutional History Of the United
States comes 70 hand, and the reviewer
states that " it must long remain lead
ing authority on both hemispheres. Is
that partisan work TO be the standard by
which the world will Judge the Southern
men Of 1861 We call upon the Hon. John
Randolph Tucker 10 hurry mp with his
projected work With the poison give the
antidote and its i'll effects may be neutral
lied. Meantime let some Southern pup
Usher take IN hand as Professor Dabney
has suggested, reprint in cheap form OF
Percy Gregs History Of the United
States if for no other reason, for the in
struction OF our sons in correct views OF
historic truth and constitutional principles.
This article has extended beyond the limits
intended, but, in conclusion. ] would COM
mend to the attention of Professor Trent al

mitted. 1t will serve to show him that the
truth is not all on one side, even in the
opinion Of foreigners, and | hope it will
lead him hereafter TO speak more respect
fully of the opinions and institutions of his
fathers. The Constitution was not "a
league with death and q covenant with
hell. as a prominent Northern statesmen
declared, but 1t was a very good instrument
tor the preservation of the rights of the Co
signatories, il it had been observed. But
when ii was torn TO flinders, its plainest
provisions disregarded, its very language
perverted 20 the oppression Of the South,
and extra constitutional measures of CO.
ercion were resolved upon by the majority,
1t was time for the minority to appeal TO the
justice of their cause, the strength Of their
own right arms and the aid of the God Of
Battles. and to take their chances in war
rather than to surrender their rights. IL
seemed good TO an lnscrutable Providence
that they should not succeed. 1t is useless
to inquire into the why's and wherefores.
The Deity has not condescended TO
inform Professor Trent and those who think
as he does why such a termination OF the
contest was permitted. 1t can easily be ex-
planned on natural causes, and the losing
cause is not always the erring cause.

market backward and forward in our esti-

greatly doubt we think that these two roads

PRICES ARE TUMBLING.

A Site for the Allegheny Postoffice Once
Offered for S145, 900 Now Obtainable for
$4,000 Less-Condemnation May Be
Location.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6-[SpeciaL IAN
offer of new site for the Allegheny post
office, or rather the revival of an old one,
has come to the Treasury Department. 1t
comprises 100 feet on Stockton avenue
by 24O on East Diamond street, thus includ-
ing the site which was offered year ago,
and, which it was thought, could be pro-
cured for the So, 900 then available, but for
offer is made by E. M. Butz, for Joseph s.
Brown, by John R. Gregg for Mrs NJ. NJ.
Gregg, and by G. Yeager.
The property is said at the department to
lie on the corner of Stockton avenue and
East Diamond street, and to extend back to
Park way, and the area would give oppor-
tunity for the erection of building of
ample size, clear of the space that it is pre-
scribed must intervene between Govern
ment and other buildings, and would also
give rear entrance from four directions
and space for large yard on Park way and
East Diamond for the use of mail wagons
The prices asked for the various properties
aggregate s1O5, 900. which would leave the
snug sum of S145, 900 for the beginning and
continuation of the building, to say moth
ing of the probability of q Congressional
increase.
Of course it is recognized at the depart
ment that the site on the northwest corner
of Ohio and West Diamond streets is much
to be preferred on account of the location,
but it seems to be impossible to acquire that
property without swallowing up practically
all of the appropriation. Agent Low, Of
the department, reported that the property
was worth about S146, 900, rated in accord
ance with other property adjoining. The
prices asked for the several lots aggregate
5000, 900.
1t is possible that some composition in tho
matter of the difference will be reached, as
the department may otherwise proceed to
the work of condemnation in its desire to
have the postofice situated at this con-
venient point

land Declines-Pig Tin Higher.
NEW York, Oct. 6-tSpectal 1.-THE special
cable to the Iron Age says: In prices of pig
iron warrants there has been more or less
irregularity. Scotch advanced to 42s 1dand
hematite to 4ss Cd, while Cleveland sold Off
to 89s Cd. The movement in Scotch is at
trfbuted chiefly to operations by members
of the "ring," who take hold more conf
IDENTIFY in view of the better statistical posi-
tion. Outsiders are holding aloof and seem
to gain o inspira ton from the greater firm
ness of prices, the decrease in stocks in
public stores or the reported scarcity of
iron in makers hands. The decline in
Clevel and is due to more plentifuItsupplies
at furnaces and lack OF interest in war

The stocks OF Cleveland iron in public
stores is still 200 tons. The stock of Scotch

the Cleveland district during September
show a total of $4,000 ions, against 2l3, 600
in the moaSn last as year
for 40, 900 tons of steel rails and fish plates
from the Transvaal.
Pig tin prices advanced steadily until

freer demand and reserved offering. The
tin plate business has been dull and Mt
ment in demand was from San Francisco.
or the domestic situation the Age says:
The week under review has been rather
uneventful. In nea rly all the markets It is
becoming quite evident that the mills will
make concessions from prices now ruling
for finished material in order to secure
winter work. It looks as II the long period
of low prices was beginning to tell upon
consumption pt enlarging its range. The
consumption of iron and steel is enormous,
considering that this is period OF moderate
business activiry. Pig iron is getting into
better shape in all the markets. Billets are
