charleston News and CourlerD
The Confederate victory at Honey Hill
was won on the last day OF November,
1864. II frustrated General Shermaas
plan for cutting of the line OF retreat
from Savannah, and the capture OF Cen
eral Hardee's troops In and around that
city and In front Of Sherman's march.
The fall of Savannah. the evacuation OF
Charleston. and General shermans
march through the State, and the sur
render Of the Confederate armies caused
the great success at Honey Hill to be
overlooked. Three printed northern ac-
counts of Honey HilP' are In circula-
ton. No Confederate account has yet
been written! The want Of such an ac-
count induced gentlemen Identified with
this battle TO request Captain Courtenay,
early in the year, to write H. He de-
cIined suggesting that some one who had
been in the battle could best do this.
The request was renewed In the spring.
and pressed earnestly upon Captain
courtenay. who finally agreed to do what
he could In the matter. HIS correspond
ence begun in March last, has since
grown TO large proportions. and covers
nearly all the important and accessible
information In Georgia and South Caro-
lima, To collect II has required six
ropfbs Of very hard work. The authen-
no Information thus gathered corrects
the United States War Records and other
publications In regard to Honey Aiil
shows the true list of the several COM
mands engaged. and supplies information
heretofore unknown.
We know little OF the engagement at
Honey Hill and OF those who took part
T., A. except that II resulted In one OF the
r,ost brilliant Confederate victories OF
The war. In undertaking to tell the true
story OF the battle Captain Courtenay Is

MONITOR AND BEE.
a Difference Of Opinion In Regard
to Dole's oligarohy.

The following extract from the
San Francisco Monitor in reference
to the Sacramento Bee is amusing
as it approaches very nearly to the
truth, We all remember dille-dally
here. Says the Monitor;
The Bee is familiar with the his
tory of that portion OF the Preach.
ers' preserves and the following edi-
torial is worth reading:
Rev. e. Is. Ollie lectured in this
city last night on Hawaii, In the
course Of his remarks he declared
that of late the natives there have
become disaffected toward the mis-
sionaries, as they hold them respou-
sible for the deposition Of Queen
Liluokalani. He then went on to say
that the present Republican form of
Government there is strongly in
trenched, and that there is no Gov
ernment on earth like it. 1t is
"strong in munitions OF war, in tru-
til and in justice, aud broad in its
craftsmanship" Two-thirds of the
capital invested in the Islands is A.
merican, and the people who control
the intelligence, property and com.
mercal interests are in favor OF an
nexation TO the United State. MAY
God hasten the day when the Islands
will belong to us" concluded Rev.
i. r.. Ollie.
1t might not be amiss to remind
the reverend gentleman that it lie no
wonder the missionaries are in dis
favor with the natives of the Hawa-
iisn Islands, when it is remembered
that those men of the cloth went
there with the words Of Christ on
their tongues and the kiss of Judas
on their lips. They preached the
Sermon on the Mount, and acted the
betrayal scene in the Garden OF
Gethsemane. In place of protect
ing and defending the poor and Gre
dulous natives, they planned to in
veigle them into the clutches OF A.
merican capitalists and Hessiau po-
liticians, who robbed them of their
birthright, and ROW have control
aud ownership of the Islands. These
missionaries were an elemental,
potential, and a necessary auxiliary
in the work OF the Acknowledgement
OF the natives-an act of treachery
upon which was constructed the
theft OF the Islands.
Rev. Ollie is wrong in asserting
that there is no Government on
earth like that at Honolulu. There
are many such, to the shame OF civil
lization be it said; Governments
founded on robbery, maintained in
wrong, aided aud abetted in their
schemes and eulogized in the success
OF nefarous plans by some who claim
to be followers of the Meek and
Lowly One.
This present Provisional Govern
ment Of the Hawaiian Islands is de-
clared by Reverend Ollie to be
"strong in truth and in justice, and
broad in its craftsmanship"
God have mercy upon any OPP
pressed people upon whom have des-
cended the justice meted out to the
Hawaiian!
Let Ananias be sanctifed if that
Provisional Government is "strong

SMALL FlRE-HEAvY LOSS.
Maine Condensed Milk Co.. Newport, Has
$4,000 Fire. Sunday Morning.

Newport, Aug. "A blaze of small
600 to $4,000 here, early Sunday morn
ing. Its origin is unknown and there
are no good theories advanced to ac-
count for 1t. It may have been due to
some passing train or an incendiary,
but why it should be set is hard to un-
derstand.
The fire was discovered by Mr.. Home
st ead of Palmyra who was driving into
the village to meet the night Pullman.
The fire then was breaking out through
the roof. Shouts of alarm turned out
the fire department. Two lines of hose
were laid and streams directed upon
the burning structure, which was used
as warehouse by the Maine Con-
densed Milk Co.
1t was 80 feet or more from the near
est building and contained from $500
to 5000 cases of condensed milk valued
from $3.50 to 81 per case. The pres
sure was entirely from the water sys-
TEN but was very effective and the fire
was soon under control but not till the
roof of the building and the greater
and the cases enclosing the product Of
the factory, ready for shipment, badly
scorched and the milk spoiled.
j. 3. Rackliffe, president of the com
pany. who arrived here Monday morn
ing, said that il was impossible to tell
the extent of the damage until the
books could be examined and the
amount of the different brands on hand
determined. He had not the slightest
idea of how the fire originated and
thought that the insurance would per-
haps cover one-half the loss.
new warehouse will be erected as
soon as possible to take the place of the
one burned and Mr.. Rackliffe thought
it was probale that the contract for the
work would be let this week. The milk
cannot be cared for in the factory
properly as a building having some
thing like an even temperature is neces-
Sary for storage.
