Rev. 7. De Witt Talmage preached
his initial sermon as co-pastor of the
First Presbyterian Church in Wash
ington City last Sunday night. The
crowd was an immense one, and it is
safe to say that had convention hall,
the largest public place of gathering
in the city, been used for the purpose
it would not have been large enough
to accommodate the number that went
to hear the noted Brooklyn divine.
Seven policemen were on hand to keep
the people in order, and two ladies
who were in the church tainted and
had to be carried out. DR.. Talmage
occupied the pulpit alone, and Rev.
Byron Sunderland, the regular pastor
of the church, took seat in the au-
dience.

An attorney who was either a fool or

action of any business, and the inves-

the attorney and a member of the

We publish elsewhere that por
ton of President Diaz's message

as a strong and enlightened nation,
and doing it all on the single sill
yer standard policy without the
aid of foreign bond syndicate to
keep its reserve up to a certain or
any other amount. We wonder

oial condition of our country? We

at Ellisville, with reference to the

the United States government last

GOLD RESERVE.

The gold reserve has fallen be-

the Bond syndicate has quit put

that mark. We will see now if the

its own financial affairs. If not
we suppose another British-Amer-

pointed, and of course another
bond issue will follow.

ANUTHER CONFESSION FROM
BURKITT IN ORDER.

Capt. Burkitt has been asserting
in his campaign speeches that the
Democratic administrations in this
State had been more eXtravagant
than that of the Radical Carpet
Bag government. Let's see if the
official figures sustain him. Here
is a sample:
UNDER RADICAL RULE.
Number ofschool children
enrolled in public
schools in 1872. ....... I48, 900
Amount expended for
public schools in 1872 S1,I36, 987
UNDER DEMOCRATIC RULE.
Number of school children
enrolled in public
schools in 1867 ..... 27o,734
Amt expended for public
schools in I886-7.... SS39,797
Now we would like for Capt.
Burkitt to explain to the public
how the radical administration was
more economical than the Demo
cratic administration in school
expenses, when the above figures,
taken from the official record, show
that the radicals spent Sligo. oS7
to school 14S, 900 children for one
scholastic year, and the Democrats
spent s031797 to school 27o,734
children for the same period Of
time. In other words the Demo.
Gratis provided for the schooling OF
132,734 more children for s297,19c
less money! And in all the Other
departments of the State govern
ment the contrast is as favorable
to the Democratic Administration
as the above facts,
Now why will Capt. Burkit
make such wild charges agains
the Democratic party, with which
he so long affiliated, and by whom
he was so often honorcd with offic,
of profit and trust, when he mus
know that said charges can be Sc

THE GREAT REUNION.

The grandest reunion the world
has ever seen of the opposing
forces in war that was is being
held on the Chickamauga battle
field in Tennessee this week. AL.
most very living general on either
side of the great civil conflict is
present. The governors OF more
than twenty States are there with
their stats. The Vice President,
members of the Cabinet, and sew
eral score Senators and Represen-
tatives in congress are honorlng
the occasion. Back of all these
1000 soldiers of the Gray and
the Blue with their friends are in
attendance. 1t is a scene to stir
the blood of statesman, soldier,
and citizen.
1t is great occasion for the
South. Her people are grandly
and proudly initiating the hospi-
tally of the silent dust Of the
battlefield beneath their feet--a
hospitality thatreceives both friend
and foe alike. The presence Of
Northern soldiers erecting monu-
ments to their dead on Southern
soil is living testimonial to the
prowess of the South and the
courage of the North. The South
erners there standing over the
graves of the dead invaders to
grasp the hands of those who were
once invaders, but happily so no
longer except as recipients OF hos
pitality, are showing a spirit
worthy of the followers of Davis
and Lee.
Many monuments have been
erected on the historic spot that is
now to become a national park
and others are yet to be raised.
The North must not exceed the
South in these evidences of love
and veneration for the dead. Every
Southern State that had soldiers
to die in that three-days conflict
should erect marble shaft to per.
i petuate their virtues and mark the
spot where they fell in defence of &
glorious, though lost, cause
Southern patriotism demands thi:
and Southern legislatures will SEE
4 that it is carried out.
