Delegates the statement was made that
in Augusta county no revenue was de-
rived from mineral lands for 1871 and
1892, and only s. for 1898, and that was the
case, Notwithstanding the celebrated
Carnegie manganese mines ana some
valuable iron mines were in that county.
This statement is not altogether correct.
The tract Of two hundred acress, called
the Carnegie mine, was assessed up TO
and including 1880. at s2NoH since which

March Z, 1894
Editor Times: The death Of General
Early has called forth a very remarkable
comment from General Longstreet' IN
which The latter says, that as a solder
General Early made dismal failure.
As q refutation Of this most unjust
criticism take the battle Of winchester,
where General Early. with scarcely o'VvJ
men exhausted from the excuses Of
fatigue and hard fighting, held IN check
the merciless marauders of Sheridan, 10
the number of $1,000 strong, for twelve
long hours.
surely man can rest his claim TO
greatness on such fighting as that.
Before General Longstreet passes IN
Judgment upon the military capacity OF
General Early. he had better explain
satisfactorily his conduct at Gettysburg,
and also the reasons which prompted
him. after the war. 10 join hands with
the infamous carpetbaggers, whose sole
purpose was TO steal all the property
which was missed by the yankees during
the war; and TO humilate the Southern
people
II General LOngstreet had executed
General Lees orders at Gettysburg that
great commander Woulu never nave Sdlh
in the quiet Of peace at Lexington, If
/ had had "Stonewall" jackson az Gettys-
burg We would have won a great vic
tory"
General Longstreet expresses regret
that his history was not out before
General Early died, but if the truth were
known General Longstreet has been am
ticipating the event, and we may now
soon look for that much wanted book, for
there are some things In IL which old
soldiers would like &c see, especially this
Gettysburg affair ". 5. Il.
