If the following letters had been written

JUBAL A. EARLY.
General Longstreet's Estimate of the
Dead Confederate Soldier.

RICHMOND, Va, March S.-When Gen.
James Longstreet was apprised of the death
of General Early and pressed for an esti-
mate of the dead ex-confederate soldier.
he made the following startling reply:
"Of Earlys career as a soldier l can
didly regard IL as dismal failure. He
was gifted neither with genius OF war nor
development or strategy. In this opinion l
will be borne out by the records. The fact
that L thought so during the war led to
an estrangement. in which General Early
pursued me with a bitterness that knew
no reason. What L say refers to official
acts and official character; l speak not OF
private life. The command which, under
Stonewall Jackson. knew not defeat under
Early knew not victory. This was not the
fault of the men under Early, who were
as brave as they were under Jackson but
owing solely TO the inefiicency of the
general in command. Ii is hard for me 70
express these convictions in the presence
of death. yet history must not oe falsified
because OF respect and reverence due to the
dead"
IL win be recalled that during the unveil-
ing of the statue of Gen. r. +. Lee in this
city, few years ago, LOngstreet and Early
met for the first time since the war. Long
street promptly extended his hand, ex-
claiming: How are you. General" Early
turned his back upon Longstreet with the
expression that he was not In the habit OF
shaking hands with traitors. referring TO
the political course of Longstreet since the
war. Early's action was severely criticised

TWO DEAD, ONE DYING
Result of an Encounter Between
Mississippi Legislators.
Editor Ratliffe Intentionally Kills S. A.
Jackson and Lays Out Two Farm
ers Standing Near.

KOsCIUSKO, Miss, March s-This place
was thrown into the greatest excitement
to-day at about noon by deadly encounter
between w. p. Ratcliffe, editor or the
Alliance Vindicator, and 5. A jackson,
leading business man of kosciusko ana
the newly-elected State Representative
from this county, in which the latter was
killed. A bystander, Samuel Russell, re-
ceived a stray shot in the mouth, killing
him instantly, and Will Sanders, another
outsider was shot through the thigh, and
it is thought will die The two latter are
young farmers living a few miles from
town. 1t is thought both the latter re-
ceived shots from Ratcliffes deadly pistol.
The affair grew out of a reply by jack
son in the Kosciusko Star denouncing Mr..
Radcliffe in very emphatic language for
publishing in his paper that he (Jackson)
voted in caucus at the late meeting OF the
Legislature for a Populist for United
States Senator. Mr.. Jackson leaves a wife,
a most estimable lady, and four small
children to mourn his loss.
The particulars of the deadly encounter
as gathered by another reporter are as
follows: To-day about noon Messrs. jack
son and Ratliffe met on the lower floor
of the courthouse and just in front or the
sher1ftS s once, Where deputy SneriI WAL
lace was auctioning off some goods. AS
soon as the men saw each other fight
ensued in which Ratliffe got Jackson
down on the floor. The crowd that had
gathered at the auction interfered and
pulled Ratliffe away, and as jackson arose
TO his feet two shots rang out, one II is
thought from Jackson and one from Rat
life, without effect Before the men had
time to fire again Sheriff Love and his
two deputies caught Ratliffe and put him
out at the south entrance or the court
house. They were taking him across the
yard when Jackson came out at the west
entrance and, going around the corner OF
the building, came up with Ratliffe. Then
began a duel to the death, each firing about
three shots OF which hit Jackson in
the head, killing him instantly, and two
other shots, 1t is supposed from Ratliffe' s
pistol, killing young Russell and mortally
wounding Sanders.
The principals in the affair were two Of
the best-known men in this place. Mr..
Ratliffe besides being editor OF the Alli-
ance Vindicator, is leader Of the Populist
party in this section, represents this coun-
ty in the Legislature and the OPP
ponent of Hon. j. S. Williams in the last
election for congressional honors. He is
we'll known all over the State. Mr.. Jack
son was one of the best-known and most
popular business men OF Kosciusko. A few
months ago he was elected TO represent his
county in the State Legislature defeating
a Populist by good majority.

More important to the great bulk or the

special 10 the Indianapolis journal.
DANVILLE ILL.,, March S.-Lawsuits
growing out of the murder of Henry Hell
mick never cease. There was a hot law
suit among twenty contestants for the $500
reward offered for the arrest and convic-
ton of the Helmick murderers. The court
gave one-sixth of the reward to farmer
Samuel Lenover. On his arrival home with
his money Lenover found waiting for him
his brother-in-law, Alfred Beaumont. who
claimed that he was justly entitled to one
half of LencVer's share because he had
given Lenoyer valuable pointers. Lenover
refused TO relinquish any OF the spoilS.
This angered Beaumont, who drew his re-
volver and shot Lenover in the leg. To-day
the jury gave Beaumont six months in Jail
for the offense. Other criminals who re-
ceived sentences at this term are: Herman
Swinford, burglary, three years; Oliver
Wheeler, burglary. three years; Fred Smith,
horse stealing, three years; w. L. Roth,

to-day, before Baron Pollock, the considera-
tion of the point of law connected with the
verdict of 20 shillngs damages obtained by
Mrs. John Biddulph Martin Victoria Wood
hulD against the trustees Of the British
Museum was taken up. Counsel for Mrs.
Martin contended that the verdict of the
jury entitled the plaintiff to judgment with

dict was quite consistent and in favor of
the defendant and, therefore. he gave judg-
ment, with costs, for the defendants: But
on Mrs. Martins counsel giving notice of
appeal the court stayed the execution.
In explanation of Baron Pollocks decision
