h Gold Standard.

SILVER statesmen protest against
the establishment" of the gold
standard upon the country by an
act of Congress. Where have these
Rip Van Wrinkles been along back
that they had not noticed the fact
that the gold standard is established
by a higher authority than the Con
gress of the United States? Natural
law has established the gold stand
ard, and Congress has just this duty
to perform with reference to it: to
recognize a contamination. 1t is one
of the follies of all ages and all places
that some men refuse to recognize
the forceful reality of existing things,
but will persist in the futile folly of
butting their empty heads against
the stone wall. But it don't hurt
the wall.

Gen. 6ordon's Tribute TO Grants
Generaiship.

General Gordon gave rs many in
cidents of interest in the civil war
not found in the books, and these
were the more impressive because
the observation of the speaker.
He mentioned two instances com
ing under his immediate observation
where the superb generalship of
Grant was apparent. At the close
OF the three days fighting in The
Wilderness the scouts brought to
Lee the information that the Union
army was in retreat. Lee called
Gordon into his tent and ordered
him to march his corps of $4,000
men that night, the 9TH of May to
Spottsylyania Court House by a
straight road that day cut through
the woods in anticipation of Grants
probable strategy. Gordon remon-
strated with Lee, saying the Union
army was whipped and in retreat.
General Lee responded that he was
acquainted with Grant and from
his knowledge Of the man he was
positive he would not retreat, but
that these movements in the Federal
army meant q march by the right
flank of the Confederates. "Then
you have information that he will go
to Spottsylvania?" enquired Gordon.
NO." said Lee, II have no certain
information of Grants plans other
than what / gather from intuition.
l know that the dictates of good gem
eralship compel to such an action.
Were | in Grants place | should
take just this course, and so | infer,
logically, | think, that Grant will
march his army by our right flank
to Spottsylvania during the night"
And that was just what Grant did.
So did these skilful s~trategists study
to checkmate each other on the
checkerboard of war. (Grant, writ
ing of this march, says; "On the
night of the 18th the march toward
Spottsylvania was begun. But the
enemy,shaving become appraised of
our movement, and having a shorter
line, was enabled to reach there
frst.'D
When near Appomattox in April
1865, with a part of Grants army
pressing upon his real and a part
under Phil Sheridan in front, Lee
ordered Gordon, who commanded
the right wing of the Confederate
army, to cut his way through the ops
posing lines in front while Long
street with the left wing held the
rear against the onset of the Federal
advance. In the attempt TO exc
cute this maneuver the two wings OF
Lees army were completely separat-
eb from each other with a continu-
ally widening gap into which was
thrust a division of the Union forces
and to Lee there was no alternative
but surrender. In this triumph of
strategy was manifested the match
less generalship of the superb COM
mander.
