Longstreets Opinion OF General Lee From a
Northern Standpoint

No one can read this literary effort OF
General Longstreets without having his
admiration and venerdtion intensified
for Robert T.. Lee, the greatest OF all
the captains produced by the South dur
ing the war of the rebellion. Without
apparently intending TO create this cf-
feet General Longstreet, by number
Of off hand sketches. has presented a type
Of man whose conspicuous characteristics
are so suggestive Of Washlngton's as 10
be AT times almost startling. Long
streets sldelights on the great Confeder-
ate commander are more realistic and
vigorous than any of the studied and
elaborate portrayals by Lees biographer
and particular admirer. the late General
a. l.. Long. Whether chatting under the
persistent nagging and interior
ence OF President Davis and
his Secretary Of War. or harassed by the
insubordnation Of his leutenants. wheth-
er racked with acute physical suffering or
the anxiety inevitable upon feeling that
his army OF which he was so proud, the
Confederacy itself. and his future were
slipping from under him, the superb men
tai calm of Lee shines Ike a fixed star
for the admiration of all who can com
prehend the trying responsibilities and
vexatlons Of his position, and the anguish
mental and physical he endured.
Longstreet is never more entertaining
than when he sums up the abilities OF
soldiers under whom he fought, or who
fought under and against him.-Ncw

A VALUABLE ENDORSEMENT OF THE
TIMES VIEWS

We print in another column an article
which We take from the Baltimore Sun. dis
cussing in an uncommonly clear manner
the effect the free coinage Of silver would
have on the wages of workingmen. There
is nothing new in this article TO the read
ers Of The Times. for we have many
times pointed out the disastrous conse-
quences to workingmen that would follow
the lowering Of our standard Of value
that free coinage Of silver would pro-
duce, and in doing it we have repeated
ly used every argument and illustration
used by the Sun. But we reprint this
article to show our readers that we are
not al all singular in holding the views we
have so often submitted TO them. The
Baltimore sun is. by common consent.
one Of the ablest and most enlightened
journals published in this country. We
reprint this editorial from 1t that our
readers may see how entirely our views
are endorsed by those who are ranked
as clear-headed and thinking men.
The Sun is perfectly right when it
says the first effect of free coinage would
he a terrific panic. OF course a popu-
lar election would have 10 precede this
country's adopting the principle Of free
coinage as part of it's financial system.

this Government. Men would straight

result Of the election was made known.
