ing my two little half-brothers, seven and
eight years Old, at play MS lie Thought,
he called them TO him, and taking ono
on each knee and patting them on tho
head, asked whit they were doing. When
they replied that they were picking up
chips, lie said he used to- pick up chips
for his mother, too when he was Il boy.
All. faithful soul, no doubt8its was n relief
If only for moment, to turn from MS
mighty cares to the companionsftp OF
children.
But to return Our hero's mortal body
rests In the chapel Mt Lexington. Yet his
example remains M inspiration for all
time. What hopes, what fears, possessed
his faithful heart, only God and himself
knew. Trained In the art Of war and
fully alive to tho mon1entous Issues IN
volved, he&guidcd his cohorts with con-
s,lmnlhte SKILL and was ever ready 10
meet hts mighty adversary TILL from mere
nttrtion, his faithful followers melted
away'nmld overwhelming numbers. What
need Of n tablet in the Temple Of Fame
for him whose stainless sword carved
with an aureoln OF light deathless name
upon the Southern Cross, whose fame Is
embalmed in the love Of heroic hearts.
and whose memory shall last while
watching stars their faithful viglls keep
and majestic rivers hold their onward
courses to the sea.
HE has crossed the dark river, he rests
in the shade.
Twas ordained by Jehovah's decree.
Then, sinner beware, for the mighty
must fade
And n spans but allotted to thee.
Christian look UP, there Is hope in the
sky,
An example of fifth and reward:
There is a lesson for all-that the right
eous must die.
And the wicked must meet the same
God.
Then teach us. denr Father, our vices
to shun;
Teach us to worship that when life is
done,
we may cross the dark river, Thy man
date appease
And rest in the shade of the life-giving
trees"

Formerly OF Fifth Virginia Cavalry.

immigrants be prohibited, but our coun-
try, particularly the South, needs more
good agricultural labor-thnt is. indus
strous, honest people who are law abiding
and desire to better themselves and live
by energy and economy. The South needs
as many such Immigrants as she can get.
The most dangerous classes are those
who think that liberty means license.

Sir Percy Wyndha1n Again.

HEF ~ = - ~ w AAdAAdAAA "A S1A4'
EDITOR of The Dispatch:
sir,-After reading the several comm,l-
nications anent the capture of Sir Percy,
! am reminded of the pertinency of the
first card published on the subject by Mr..
c. A. Richardson, in which he says there
was dispute at the time of the capture
as to whom the gallant Englishman really
did surrender. Mr. Richardson says: at
is best to let the matter rest. unless one
Is cock sure Of the facts in the prem
ises." He says this after stating that
the late Colonel Charles II. O'Ferrall
states that he saw Sir Percy few min
utes after his capture" and that 1t was
then in dispute rs to who captured him,
and that he (O'FerralD would not be a
party to the dispute. See Ex-Governor
O'Ferrals book. Forty Years of Active
Service" The writer agrees with Mr..
Richa rdson that If one cannot be cock
sure" in such matters then don't be
sure at all, and let the incident rest.
However, we old ex-Confederates do know
that Sir Percy surely was captured, as
stated, and that he was devilish mad
about it, as he had promised even as
sured. the military authorities in Wash
ington that he would soon bag General
Ashby and his whole command. "The
best laid plans of mice and men, often
fail But now, as It has been forty-one
years since we all parted at AppomattoX.
why not let us also part with the dim
and fading memory of Sir Percy Wynd-
ham? VETERAN.

NO POLITICAL COMPROMISE,
President Palma and Advisers Con.
tinue Firm Attitude.

Havana, Sept. Upon the highest
official authority the Associated Press
Is able to announce that President
Palma positively will not consider in
the efforts made in the interest of
peace in Cuba any plans which in
volve political compromises by the
government. In this the presidents
official advisers and practically all his
closest friends agree, those holding
different views being in a decided
minority.
The business of surpressing the in
surrection is daily becoming more
methodical and developing more abil-
ity upon the part Of those engaged
in it.
The victory of the government
forces at Camp Florida, twenty miles
east of Havana, resulting in the loss
of twenty men killed for the insur-
gents, has not caused the rejoicing
here which might have been expected,
as the men slain have relatives and
friends here. Besides, the dominating
sentiment in the country is anti-gov-
eminent and in the cities as we'll as
in the rural districts there are a num-
Der of people who are waiting the de-
velopment of events before declaring
themselves for or against the insur-
rectfon.
