a good general never orerlooks Il
point in the game" said an ex-army
officer, who greves because time has
ruled him out of the service. Nothing
escapes him. and that should be re-
membered by these curbstone and cor
ner grocery strategistS who gather a
little surface information and then
howl because campaigns are not carried
on in accordance with their plans.
"ApropoS to this. | recall what seem
cd little thing that happened before
we attacked Fort Donelson, and vet
there is no measuring the effect it may
have had upon history. General Grant
called Il council of war TO consider
whether they should attack at once or
give the troops few days rest. The
other officers favored Il rest, while
Grant smoked and gave no opinion.
There was Il deserter brought in
this morning. the general finally said.
Let us see him and hear wha. he has
to say
The first thing Grant did when the
fellow came in was 10 open llp his
knapsack. Where are you fromT
Fort Donclson.'
"'lou have six days ratious, gee.
When were they served"
Yesterday morning, sir
Were the same rations served TO
all the troops"
- Yes, sir
Gentlemen said Grant. troops do
not have six days rations served cut
to them in fort if they mean to stay
there. These men mean to retreat, not
to fight. We will attack at ouce.'''

Words of TrutIt.

Speaking of the political situation in
the Middle West, Hon. Leon q. Bailey.
of Indiana, declares that there have
been DO negotiations looking toward
the abandonment of silver by the Dem
ocrats of that section. Mr.. Bailey says:
The Chicago platform will not be
abandoned. The principles therein
enunciated are eternally right and
must ultimately prevail. TO abandon
them or to modify our position by the
slightest shadow of reasoning would
not only show us treacherOuS to the
truth but forever stamp the party as
unworthy of public confidence and in
capable of carrying on the affairs of
state. The platform speaks of 10 new
theory. advances no new doctrine of Il
gG-crnmcnt wherein the people are SOW
ereign and their Interests held rs para
mount. Its declarations are as old as
the republic and represent the thought
and purpose of our institutions and of
the Democratic party from the days of
