Longevity Of Confederate Generals.
New York SIM.


The last hostile shot OF the civil war
was fired on May Is. 1865. IN Texas. Nearly
thirty years have elapsed since that time
and yet It Is a fact that nearly So per
cent Of the staff officers OF the Confei-
crate army are still Hving-many OF them
in the enjoyment Of perfect health at a
ripe Old age. That there should be many
survivors is not at all strange. for the
fact - we'll known that In the closing and
desperate days OF the war very young
men. In fact boys were enlisted IN the
Confederate army: and such soldiers, en-
tering the ranks as pr.vates. would now
be between IS and so years OF age. In the
prime OF active iife With tina staff off,
GERS. and more especially with those OF
the rank OF general. the case was differ
emit, for at the close OF the war a major
i.y OF tFese men were at least 70 years
CT age, and many were considerably ohier
Yet there ara now living seven iieuten-
aat-generafs OF the Confederate service
.wenty-seven r1ajor-generals and lis brig

ais. by the way. are members OF the
present United States senate There are
in various parts OF the South z6eco sur
vivsng Confederate veterans OF al grades
The longevity OF Confederate generals l.
actrseused 20 the fact that a majority OF
them live away from big critics and with

Nowthe immediate funding OF the greene

OF buying on the hostility OF these banks
or restoring their confidence, but 1t could
not destroy their means CT getting or with
the treasury gpld. because some 500. O0o-
600 OF silver would remain ayailabia for
thar purpose under the governments poll
Icy to keep the metals at a parity. Is IT
advisable or safe or possible thus to turn
the currency upside down In a moment
and to correct in a day the mistakes of
sixteen years OF wrongly persistent effort ?
The proposition Is ona not to be enter
tanned. and furthermore we all know ts,st
congress VIII never entertain II. This
whole scare has ats origin in the conduct
of the banks at tie country's great mor-
etary center. The greenbacks have been
with us for years, and they are g,liltless
in this particular casa They are. to be
sure. the endless chain by which tho gov

but chains do not work OF themselves
And what il the power now working this
chain? The dastrlst OF the people? Not
at all; It Is the New York banks which
are using 1t and which, to say the least.

Mississippi has q law which taxes for
eign corporations doing business In that
state. The supreme court of the United
States, Chief Justice Fuller delivering the
decision has just affirmed its constatu-
tfonailsy- The case arose In Kinds cuun-
". where the Postal Telegraph company
was sued by the revenue agent to recov-
or S7s2.5S. the amount OF tax assessed
against thc company for 1890 and 1891.
lie recovered judgment, which was af-
fir1ned by the state supreme court The
telegraph company then appealed to the
United states supreme court, contending
that the tax WAS In restraint OF inter-
state commerce and therefore Illegal. The
opinion of Justice Fuller enstains the
states contention and the company viii
have to pay its taxes.
