Cured by CUTICURA.

Mysister had this rash come on her shoulder
when she was about eighteen months old. 1t
was there about two years causing her intense
suffering. We had several different doctors,
tried everything that we could think OF, and
that every one could suggest without effect
ing cure. In spite of all we did 1t kept
spreading. One day it would scab over and
then crack open and watery matter ooze
from it and the scabs would all fall off. 1t
would be raw for time, then scsb over again.
Some one recommended CUTIcURA REMEDIES.
We Immediately procured n box of CUTIcURA

Lynchburg. and was informed that the
President and chief officials would pro-
Seed 10 Danville, and the line be re-es-
tablished between Danville and Lynch
burg.
L Immediately had the canal-boats Of
the city taken possession Of. and began
to load them as rapidly as possible with
machinery, tools stores, ETC., TO be car
ried 20 Lynchburg.
AS n large supply Of prepared ammuni-
ton could not be taken, l had large
force employed in destroying it by throw
ing 1t in the river
Supplies of value 10 families were given
away to those who applied. BY midnight
the boats laden with stores were placed
under charge Of officers and started for
their destination, which they never
reached. What became Of them l never
knew.
About o'clock in the morning General
Gorgas, the Chief of Ordnance. came to
the arsenal to tell me that he was about
to leave with the President for Danyille,
and 70 report 10 him there. | never re-
ported 10 him till fifteen years later,
when I met him at Sewanee, Tenn. the
Vice-Chancellor of the University Of the
South.
Every possible effort was made to pre-
vent the destruction Of the arsenal.
l, as commanding officer visited every
building between and o'clock I'm the
morning of the Sd of April, had the gas
extinguished. and the guards instructed
10 shoot any man who attempted to fire
the buildings.
one hour afterwards II was then four
miles from the city, the rapid and terrible
explosion Of shells heard in the distance
proved that that part of the city occupied
by the arsenal was being made desolate
by the torch applied by the frantic mob.
Shortly after the President left the city
the gunboats were blown up.
After witnessing the explosion from the
steps of the arsenal, l sent for the keep
er Of the magazine, and satisfying my
self that life would not be endangered by
its destruction, wrote an order for him
70 explode the magazine al in the morn
ing, the last order of the Ordnance De-
partment, and among the last orders Of
the Confederate Government, given in
the city Of Richmond.
AS l rode out of the city in the early
dawn l saw dense cloud Of smoke sud-
denly ascend with a deafening report
that shook the city to its centre
Thus ended the surrender Of the city
Of Richmond.
The mob Immediately took possession,
looted the stores, and fired the city.
A large part OF beautiful Richmond was
burned TO the ground.
The Federal troops marched into the
burning city in splendid order, took pos
session, dispersed the mob, and saved
by their energy and discipline, the city
from total destruction

Read General Bradley T.. Johuson's
very interesting book on General Joseph
l.. Johnston if you would learn much Of
General Sherman's brutalities and van
dalism. He conducted war like the Span
ish Duke of Alya, in the reign Of Philip
the Second, like other haif-savage soldiers
have done in all ages. Contrast his
march through Georgia and South Caro-
lima with General Lees march through
Pennsylvania, and behold the tremendous
difference. Then see Beast Butler at New
Orleans. Read his most infamous order
Of May 10, 1862, as 10 the ladies of that
city, and be ashamed Of your country
that could produce such a monster In uni
form:
Remember Butler! Hye!
Thou blot upon thy country's scutcheon!
Aye"
Then read the spoliating, destroying
campaign of Major-General Hunter
United States army, in Virginia His
march was one Of desolation, insult. and
brutality. When Mrs. Lewis. OF Green
brier county, Va, after Hunter had
threatened to burn her handsome resi-
dence, asked him If he was in earnest in
saying that he intended that women
and children are to be made TO suffer"
the brute replied: Madam, l do intend
that the women shall suffer. The wo-
men of the South are the fends that
have kept up this war. I am coming
back 20 burn your grain-fields, TO make
a desert of the Pride of the Earth, to
desolate your country, and 10 starve-
yes, to starve women and children"
General Warren. United States army, was
encamped at Bethesda church. Hanover
county, Va, Mrs. Currie was driven from
her home by soldiers, robbed OF all the
clothing for herself and children, and
every mouthful Of food. In this condi-
ton she appealed to the commander.
Read his satanic reply: Madam, we
read In history that the women Of Jeru-
salem ate their own babies during the
siege Of that city; you may have to come
10 that yet"
See General Blair packing with his own
stained hands the fine china in Mrs.

Look at the burning of Atlanta and lurid
flames that consumed Columbia by order
Of Sherman. There are many other In

Custer, Wilson. and others have many
crimes OF vandalism TO answer for before
the bar of impartial history and before a
sterner. more inhexible bar in the world

We congratulate Colonel Hemstreet
upon hts growth in patriotic stature. He
does not say now, as he said last July,
that silence should now be the portion
of the southern people, instead OF ex-
cuses and palliation"; he does not ex-
press doubt as to their loyalty, or reflect
upon the honesty of their motives in their
struggle for independence more than thir-
ty years ago; on the contrary, he las mo
manner of doubt that the South would
I'LL its quota periodically and CALAMITY"
I'm foreign war, and would take pride
I'm fighting In a southern regiment under
southern officers" Colonel Hemstreet
goes farther than this, and wants TO dis
band the Grand Army Of the Republic,
the Confederate camps and the Sons or
Veterans of both the old armies Hurrah
for Colonel Hemstreeti He really appears
to wish for the more perfect union OF the
States. and that peace and brotherly love
shall prevail in all our borders. Let the
Grand Army of the Republic, the Con-
federate camps, the Sons Of Veterans OF
Union and Confederate soldiers, be dis
banded; let the partisan histories on both
sides be burned; let monuments that have
been erected TO perpetul;e the PASSIONS
OF the war be destroyed AID let US have
peace throughout our land.
We should welcome any plan that
would bring the country together in sem
timent and fact; but far-reaching as
Colonel Hemstreets offer is, we would
say to him as was said 70 another very
good and highly virtuous man about two
thousand years ago. zone thing lackest
thou yet" II the Grand Army or the
Republic Is to be 6isbanded and its re-
cords obliterated, the real occasion and
object Of it's organization ard the cohe-
sive power OF pension plumber, which has
held it together, should go with IL. In
stead of going away sorrowing, after the
manner of the other young man, as a
guarantee Of his present good faith Colo
mel Hemstreet should insist upon the re-
peal of all pension legislation, and the
destruction of the pension roll. which
calls annually for more than SliO,EOVOO
from the public Treasury.
Here's good luck to our gallant friend
in BROOKLYN! He IS on the right line.
Obliterate the pensions and the Grand
Army will be obliterated. Let the Union
veterans go into retirement and the Con-
federate veterans will speedily follow.
As for fighting in a southern regiment
under southern officers, there will be no
need in the new conditions, as there will
be no Federals and no Confederates, but
all will be Americans.

Washington, March 12-While today wal not marked by particularly importanf events, the history of the week just closed will form a splendid record of what ear1 be accomplished by the nation in a short space or time under the spur of necessdtX to provide for the national defense Begi,fx ming with the appropriation of $50, 900, 900 tu De expended by the president without Hmit tation, there followed rapidly the placing Of orders for enormous quantttles Of wal supplies, the institution of negotiations foE the purchase of ships abroad, the enlistI meht or men for the navy the creation of two additional regiments of artillery tha commissioning of monitors cruisers and rams, the manning of forts along the sea coasts and finally the re-arrangement or the greait military departments to meet modern conditions in military practice.

The board of naval bureau chiefs find it impossible to pass judgment iif Washington upon the fitness for naval ser- vice for vessels that may be offered for thd auxiliary branch of the navy at the WariouS seaports. So they have been aided In their work by the creation of a special board which will undertake to visit each of tho ports where ships may be offered and mako careful personal inspection of the various craft. The board will consist of Captain Rodgers, deutenant-Commander Kelley, Passed Assistant Engineer Dixon, AsssE ant Naval Constructor Tawresey and Lieuf tenant Sergeant.
