FRIDAY EVENING, SEPT. IS, 1896.

AT A gushers's meeting at Sharps.
burg yesterday, General Beaver, OF
Pennsylvania said "the time woulo
come when the descendants OF tne
Southern soldiers would recognize that
the prayers that went up to the same
God in the time of the nations peril and
pleaded for the same thing-success-
had been answered in the best way. "
AS people forgive injuries, and as the
feelings of children can not be foretold
by those of their parents, there is no
telling what the descendants of South
ern soldiers may recognize" especial
" in view of what some of their fathers
have already done; but that many OF
the survivors Of those who were loyal
to the lost cause, will ever think that
their prayers, during the war, were an
swered in the best way, is impossible,
when they compare the present condi-
ton of themselves and their kith and
kin with what it was before the war.

SINCE Mr.. Jesse R. Grant, son OF the
late General, has declared for free sil-
yer, the republicans and goldites have
discovered that he is q mincompoop,
but that he has good common sense
is proved by the TACT thai he says;
ga mans fool that tries TO produce
ANYTHING. He'd have much better
sense if he followed the business princi
Piles of to-day, and, instead OF trying to
produce wealth, simply turn his little
stake into money and lend it to some
fellow on first-class security at good
rate ofinterest, for in little while he'd
be several points ahead of the game"

A REPUBLICAN from New York
named Brown, in a recent speech in
Richmond, spoke of the democrats as
anarchists" and "thieves;;" Mr.. In
gals, of Ohio, in the same city, charged
them with resorting to fraudulent
methods in elections, Mr.. Tenney OF
New York, in Petersburg, said the
democratic party is composed OF an
archists and communists, and Mr..
Byrne, of the same State, at Millboro,
spoke of the, democrats as dishonest.
1t is hard enough for Virginians to
hear themselves denounced by people
of their own State, let alone by North
ern men, and that such denunciatiou
as that referred to is not conducive to
the success of the republican ticket in
Virginia goes without saying.

that the cost Of living is less, that
