precia,e the grounds upon which
this verdict has been rendered.
Lee was allowed to keep his
sword; his soldiers were allowed
10 march 10 their homes ane there
was an end TO the matter. Grant
could do no more; no less. Upon
any other terms there would have
been no surrender and the rem
nant of Lees band would har e
sold their lives on good terms of
two to five for one. Grant for a
time will pass for a great soldier
by the men on his side of the
great issue; but after awhile, and
not a great while, but when
another generation has come upon
the stage of thought and action.
the verdict will be modified.
That verdict must inevitably be
that, Grant was not a great COM
mander, with three times the men
of Robert 4. Lee, ragged, tattered
and tired, with ten times his re-
sources in all material and appli-
ances of war. Lee held him at
bay during 1864, fighting him at
every tlrn, his lieu,enants A. Z.
Hill, Longstreet, Anderson and
Hampton never suffering disaster,
Grant may be apotheosized, mon
uments may be reared to pierce
the skies, but there are monu-
ments more lasting than brass and
the truth of unbiased and unpre-
JUDGED history will,fix who were
the heroes. Grant was not an
unkindly man; not a military gen.
ius; not a success considering his
resources and the worn, thinned
and weather-beaten ranks he had
opposed to his.
AS a President bad men made a
military despot of him, and while
he tyrannized the South We will
excuse him as a weakling under
evil influences. Let the North
make God of him: King Stork
was once crowned. We rejoice
that the South had no great con-
spicuity in the great pageant of
last Tuesday.
Every soldier who stood in Lees
thinned lines knows that ordinary
military skill and half hearted
army could any day have shatter-
ed and broken Lees lines. There
is but one way to make great
soldier of Grant and that is to
make every man in gray facing
his lines a demigod or an Achil-
les.-Laurens Advertiser.

pressed him TO the front, ard some
newspapers have made guber-
Material possibility out Of him.
Then there are other prominent
men spoken Of, snch as secretary
of State Thompkins, railroad com
missioner w. ID. Evans, and per
haps one or two other "minor
lights" If the first two, the Cover
nor and the congressman, Nc
Laurln will no doubt win the race,
but he can hardly be pulled into
into the contest. His congress
,onal career has not yet been suf
ficiently long to satisfy his am
bition, aud he will no doubt stand
again, in the next contest, and
retain his present position.
In the event of Mr.. McLaurin
entering the race for governor,
very few names have thus far
been suggested for the congress
ional seat, but there is no doubt
that a sufficient number Of can
didates will develop to make
quite a lively scramble for the
place. Mr.. w. ID. Evans, of Marl
boro, has always had congression-
al aspirations. and he would be
very apt TO run for congress, and
not for governor. should Mr.. Nc
Laurin enter the race for the lat
ter position. Marion county would
perhaps furnish another candi-
date, and Clarendon man would
also be forthcoming.
In the senatorial race, 1T is said
that the winning man will have
to do some "tall hustling." Sen
ator Tillman is sure to enter, and
McLaurin is spoken Of as a can
didate for this place also, as is
Governor Ellerbe. One paper has
suggested the name of Judge W.
H. Brawley, Of the United States
District Court, as a senatorial
possibility, and congressman Stan
yarne Wilson is spoken of as
"dark horse" Should all of these
oppose Mr.. Tillman that gentle
man would certainly have to
"hustle" to secure reelection.
but it is hardly probable that
they will all try to secure the
prlze. Tillman will try. Nc
Laurin and Ellerbe may try.
If these three gentleman run, or
even the first-named two, it is our
opinion that senator Tillman
would be given a close race by
congressman McLaurin, and it
would not suprlse US if Mr.. Nc
Laurin won the race, for there is
no doubt that the Senator is
losing his hold upon the people
every day, and that congressman
McLaurin is becoming more and
more popular.
The time for election, however,
is too far off for anything like a
definite forecast to be made and
the foregoing is only conjecture,
as no real candidates have actual
ly presented themselves for any
Office.

culiarity of this class of animals sur
passes that of any other of the Yerte-
brates. Millions of eggs have been
found in a single sturgeon and also
cod and salmon. Myriads of eggs de-
voured by sea birds, seals, marine ami
mails, and other fishes of every sort
may feed for months upon millions Of
salmon and cod before these fish return
to the hidden depths Of the ocean, and
yet the species resist every devasta-
tion and continually reappear in I'M
diminished numbers. And not only has
1t been found necessary to exact strict
laws in reference to the preservation
of fish. but, as the readers well know,
large amounts of money are devoted
annually to the culture, preservation
and Matching fish eggs and restocking
OF lakes and rivers exhausted by over
fishing. 1t has been found that many
fishes once neglected by the purvey-
ors in public appetite have been found
we'll favored, and in every respect fit
for food, so that every year some spe-
Gle is added to the list of edible fish.
Yet, like oliver Twist, the consumer
cries for more. The proportion of food
Of mankind furnished by the fleets
along the coast and the snares. nets
and lines with which fish are captured
in rivers, ETC., is constantly charging.
Not only this, but the industries which
fish have contributed give this class
of animals an Importance second to
birds and mammals. The capture of
fish for manufacturing gelatine, ising-
glass and for medicinal purposes is
carried on on large scale, and most OF
the artificial jewelry that so much re-
semble pearls as almost to equal the
natural production of the sea. Atten-
ton has been recently called to the
large fish, somewhat resembling the
pike, belonging to the family of Ostrog
lossidae, which inhabits the waters of
Brazil and Guiana. AS food fish the
Arapaima gigas are unequaled, and is
already of considerable economical
value in Brazil, where it is highly
valued. AS yet, however, it is only
fished for by the native tribes along
the rivers, although considerable guam
titles are sailed for expectation. In

dragging fish from streams. and also
size. It is the largest strictly fresh
water fish in the world, its length be-
ing. fifteen feet and weighing four hum
dred pounds. It's head is without
scales, but the naked skin assumes
horny texture, which taking the form
of plates, covers the entire head.
The scales are very thick, and arrayed
over the body like pieces of mosaic.
The mouth, like that of a pike it re-
sembles, is quite large and round, with
small but numerous teeth. 1t is with
the bones of this fish the Indians arm
their hooks and lances by which it is
caught as we'll as with the spurs Of the
porcupine. They are also shot with
the air-propelled wourali poisoned ar
rows of the Macouslic tribe. Strange
as It may seem, this poison does not
render the fish unfit to eat. The
Indians sharpen their fishhooks,
arrow points and lances on the
teeth of another fish, the Paraya.
The Indians prepare part Of
the Jaw Of this fish containing
FIVE or six teeth. This is carefully
cleansed, hole is bored through it
and fastened to the culver. The weap-
ons are readily sharpened by placing
the points between the keen edges of
any two teeth and drawing them with
n twisting motion backward and for
ward. A number Of natives embark
in their canoes, armed with lances,
bows and arrows and blow guns. AS

How few people realize when their back
begins to ache that it is a warning pro-
vded by nature to tell you that the kid
neys are not working properly. You have
u severe fall, you strain yourself lifting or
perhaps you are compelled to maintain a
sitting or STOPPING position for long inter
walls at time, your back begins to ache,
then your head, you become listless, tired
and weary, but do you understand the
real cause2 We think not, else you would
not use plasters and liniment on the back,
which only relieve but do not reach the
cause. If you would rid yourself of the
pain and cure the root of the trouble, at
the same time save many years of suffer

proven that it will cure.
