We made no stops on the way north. but

The chief point of interest on the voyage was
the passing of a half-snnk wreck, tossing on tho
lonely seas in the neighborhood Of Cape Hat
no human being was aboard, to see that her
name was the Johann Wilhelm. and to receive
an impression of the utter desolation of this
work of human hands and home of men. Waves
were washing through her Sides and rags Of sail
and flag fiuttering from her broken masts.

mist had fairly cleared away from tho foot of
the mountains. The same picturesque palm
trees fringe the shore here as at Mazatlan. Such
palms as ono secs painfully cultivated in places
further to the north are simply a travesty on

AT the confederate reunion at Hous-
ton, Tex, General s. ID. Lee did a good
deal of nonsensical talking about the
causes that led to the war of the re-
bellion. To detail those causes would
be to write the history of the country,
but they may be summed up by say
ing that the great cause was the deter
mination of the southern states to Sc
cede and set up an alien government,
one hostile to the government at Wash
ington; and the determination of tb e
people Of the north to preserve the
union as inherited from the fathers
Tribune.
How dishonest or ignorant the pa
per must be which publishes such rot
as the above. The south was growing
rich too fast with slave labor, and the
north becoming insanely jealous, got
up maudlin and sickly sentiment
against slavery, and having $4,000, 900
