ANDERSON, S. c., WEDNESDAY MORNING. APRIL II, 1885,

Day, but by request ask that as
many as will send FIVE or ten cents to
Mr.. R. A. Hemphill, Constitution
Office, Atlanta, Ga, to be used in Sc
curing suitable monument for this
grave. I mention Mr.. Remphill with
out his permission, but am sure that
he will attend to the matter with a
cheerfulness that is always his in a
work of this kind. 1t will only take
few more dollars to properly mark
this grave. Brown gives FIVE cents
and l give FIVE. This small sum from
few will accomplish the work and
will hurt no one. Please remember to
send your donations to R. A. Hemp
hill, Constitution office, Atlanta, Ga.
Don't send some to him and some to
Sarge Plunkett-send it all to him.
Now let the nickels and the dimes
come in to beautify this lonely grave
of the brave Confederate.

the officer in command that he sup
posed that he and his train were cap
tured. The officer asked him what
command had done all this mischief.
DR.. Williams discreetly replied that it
was Hampton division. After few
remarks the officer dismissed DR.. Will
liams, telling him he did not wish to
be encountered with wounded, and
thinking that he was doubtless in a
very critical situation, marched no
further in the direction of the camp
fires he had been seeking, but filed of
by left hand road, making all posi-
bic haste to the peninsula. This force
was the five hundred picked men un-
der Dahlgreen who had gone to the
upper James and being unable to cross.
as was his first design, on account OF
continuous rains, was now seeking a
junction with Fitzpatrick, with view
of making combined attack on Rich
mond at daylight next morning. The
purpose of this paper is not to expand
on the gallant Dahlgreen and the tragic
ending of his life next day-they are
matters dilated upon at great length
by both historians mentioned, when
the causes that forced him into King
and Queen county in such defenceless
condition and that accomplished the
failure of this dastardly enterprise,
have been entirely ignored. But for
Hampton and his little band Of, shall
/ say braves, Fitzpatrick and Dahlgreen
would have combined their forces that
night and at dawn would have taken
and burned the city, released the
prisoners, and if all their designs were
accomplished would have murdered
the President and his cabinet. This
was of easy accomplishments because
there we're no troops in the city to
defend it and none could be gotten
from Lees army over the railroad the
enemy had destroyed.
It is possible that these hourishing
historians attribute the deliverance OF
the city to the cowardice of the enemy.
because it would not sound grand to
say that the capital Of the Confeder.
ate States of America, and the capital
of the great Commonwealth of Vir-
ginia, the mother Of presidents and
generals, was saved from destruction
by two hundred and fifty Star heels,
under general who came within one
hundred miles of being one himself:
Two hundred and fifty "tar heels and
only forty of them engaged, saved the
city oh, no As the fellow who was
dying said, I don't mind passing to
the realities of an unknown world l
contemplate that with the most per-
feet composure, but it does break my
heart to think that I am dying and am
summoned to the Great Bar from the
butt of blamed little goat. If this
could have been the active force that
guided the deliberation of these his
torians, they were more discriminating
and less candid than the writers Of
proud, imperial Rome, who did not
hesitate to give to the discordant honk
Of geese the credit Of their city's
deliyeranoe. N. P. FoARD,

- People who can talk about them
selves to the satisfaction of others are
very scarce.
- Those who never read the adver-
tisements in their newspapers miss
more than they presume. Jonathan
Kenison, of Bolan, Worth Co., Iowa,
who had been troubled with rheuma-
tism in his back, arms and shoulders
read an item in his paper about how a
prominent German citizen Of Ft. Mad.
ison had been cured. He procured
the same medicine, and to use his own
words: "It cured me right up"
He also says: GA neighbor and his
wife were both sick in bed with rheu-
matism. Their boy was over to my
house and said they were so bad ne
had to do the cooking. [ told him OF
Chamberlain Pain Balm and how it
had cured me, he got a bottle and 1T

Cat Her Children's Throats.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, April Mrs. W.
H. Williams, wife Of real estate man
of Grove City, o., registered at the
Park hotel with her three children.
The two youngest, aged three and six
years, we're found with their throats
cut from ear to ear. The woman told
the older child she was going to drown
herself in the river.
The police found Mrs. Williams at
10 clock last night at the house Of
Mrs. Lester, friend of her family, at
1161 South High street. She had
gone directly there from the Park
hotel, and had told nothing Of what
she had done.
Mrs. Lester said she had chatted
pleasantly during her stay, as if moth
ing had happened. When asked about
the murder, she admitted that she had
killed the children and calmly related
the story of how she did it, evidently
not realizing the seriousness Of it.
She said she concluded to do it last
Wednesday and came to this city to
carry out her plan. She first went to
the Davidson house, but could get no
room to suit her. She bought the
razor in this city last Saturday: She
bought quantity Of opium on Sunday
and administered some to each Of the
children, but they all elected it ex-
cept Annie, the elder child, who slept
for several hours and then came from
under its influence.
She fully intended to kill Annie
this morning, but she pleaded so hard,
and showed such strength Of resistance
that she desisted. Maud, she says,
died from the morphine, but this can:
not be true. When she left the hotel
this afternoon she started for the
river, intending to drown herself, but
she reflected that Annie might be sus-
pected of killing the children and so
she abandoned the notion Of suicide
in that way. She says she will XIII
herself yet. From her rambling talk
about her home life, it is evident that
she was lonesome, living in the little
village and fancying her husband was
growing cold toward her. She brooded
over her lot until her mind became un-
balanced. She is locked up in the
city prison now. Annie, the surviv-
ing child, is thirteen years old.

A Good Road Problem Solved.

About a year ago We referred edito-
rally, under the caption, Chow to
Get Good Roads" to the good example
set by an enterprising young man in
Central Missouri. This young man
undertook to put the roads alongside
his own home in good condition by
voluntary labor of self and teams. BE
procured road grader and contributed
several dollars worth Of gratuitous work
and not only put the half mile of road
in front of his home in good order, but
graded quarter or half mile beyond
home in two directions. The part OF
the road he graded was made the best
dirt road III the country. After pass
ing over this road, the editor Of this
paper wrote the article above referred
to, and called the attention of the
farmers to the fact that if every farm
er in the State would put the roads
alongside his own farm in frst-class
condition the good dirt road problem
would be solved.
A recent visit was made to the vi
cinity above referred to, and we found
that the young man who did so much
gratuitious road work last year, re-
peated the operation this season, even
hiring neighbors to help him, not only
along his own home, but for half mile
on each side. He now has mile and
a half of fine graded road. Nor did the
work stop here the enterprising farm.
ers along a mile and a half of parallel
road, and other roads intersecting them
initiated his example and graded the
road along their farms as nicely as any
street in the towns and cities.
Reports come from several different
parts of the State that great deal OF
voluntary work has been or is being
done on the roads, and we are lead to
believe that The journals recommen-
dation Of this plan year ago has re-
suited in great good.
There is no question but that this
plan generally followed will put the
dirt roads in such condition that,
with the exception of few days in the
year, they will be reasonably good.
The farmers who do this extra work
will be amply repaid in the enhanced
appearance and value Of their own
homes to say nothing Of the benefits
and pleasures Of good roads.
One thing lacking in communities
where the roads are nicely graded is
wide wagon tires. 1t does not take
long with the narrow-tired wagons
heavily loaded to greatly mar and in
jure the good roads that enterprising
men have made. We hope the farm
ers will investigate, agitate and exper-.
iment along this line.-Journal of
Agriculture.

The West as rule was settled
by the picked sons of the East.
They came West poor. From
the placers, the ribbed hills and
the desert they have managed
to keep flowing into the business
arteries of the East a stream of
treasure which has amounted to
$40, 900, 600 in gold and silver
annually for As years. They
have created and equipped eight
states. The treasure they have
sent East has transformed all
the Eastern states. They have
never asked aught of the East,
except our countrymen there
would recognize as money what
civilization has recognized for
four thousand years. They have
asked this. not SO much on their
own account as Tor the men OF
the East themselves. That is,
they have never asked for any
thing that would not be of as
much more advantage to the East
as to the West, as what the East
produces. In return we are ad.
vertised from Maine to Texas as
would be thieves. Is it strange
that patriotism is growing a lit
tie cold in the West and that
there are men who sometimes
wish the West could be set of
into a Republic by itself, where
it would be permitted to make its
own laws and to use the gifts
without restraint ?

President Tracy of the Repub-
lican league, said in his opening
address at the Cleveland con-
vention that free coinage was
something that the Republican
party cannot indorse. This
sentiment touched responsive
chord in the hearts of a large
majority of his hearers and Yves
received with q storm OF ap-
plause. 1t will be remembered
that when Senator Jones desert
ed the Republican party, declar-
| ing that he could no longer act
with them because that organic
alton was unalterably opposed to
free coinage, it raised a great
furore among the high councils
of the g. o. p. The Senator
knew the sentiments of the Re-
publican leaders on the silver
question, and the truth of what
he said is confirmed by the &C
ton of the Cleveland convention

coinage of silver and gold at tbs
