loubt whatever. No hypocrite could
have wrought himself into such ten
sion of will, rendered such heroic
service, and been so transfxed and
oound down to a cherished purpose.
and the world will do credit to itself,
and strengthen mankind in noble
purposes, to permit Stonewall Jack
son to pass into history as a Christ
ian soldier. There is a sympathetic
hord running through the human
race, which often extorts our respect,
even when the judgment condemns.
oval people throughout the North
are glad that powerful foe of the
Union has been removed; but it is
credit to them that they would have
perferred, in the foregoing language
Of a contemporary, that Stonewall
Jackson had been captured rather
than slain.
The only improvement that can be
made of the death of SO remarkable
man is, to hope and pray that ex-
amples of similar heroism may be
multiplied in the loyal armies of the
Republic. Where have we an officer
in high command, of so many desira-
BILE elements of character as were
mingled in Stonewall Jackson? Is
there solitary example of such un-
ostentatious department, such daunt-
less courage, such uncomplaining en-
durance-in tastes simple as child,
willing to encounter hardship, perils,
Hastings, death, even, at any moment,
for the cause of the Union and the
Constitution There are good gen.
erals in our army, but not one, of
whom the public is aware, who has
the power Jackson possessed of so
infusing his own burning, unquench-
able earnestness and unfiagging en-
ergy into his men, that they loved
him as tender father, became his
arms his legs, his spirit, and then
moved with the irresistible energy
of those having such leader. 1t is
remarkable circumstance of the re-
bellion, that the loyal cause has not
possed leader who is a counterpart
of Stonewall Jackson-a general who
has thrown the intense energy of a
persistent mind, quickened to a white
heat of patriotism, into this struggle,
and, like him who is the subject of
tais article, been willing to live or
die, survive or perish for the county,
without personal conditions annexed.
Would that Providence vouchsafed us
a few such generals!

AN UNWORTHY FLING
AT SOUTH CAROLINA

The Journal is surprised to find in
newspaper of the New York
Worlds usually friendly attitude to-
ward the South any such flash of un-
worthy spirit as is recalled in the fol-
loving paragraph:
"Cole Blease's South Carolina ha.,
repealed one of the war amendments
again But it is to be rememberei
that South Carolina itself was re-
realcd once and for all at Appcmat-
tox"
Yes, South Carolina and her sister
Confederate states were defeated at
AppomattoX, but as time removes
that scene farther and farther, so
that all the world can see it's deeper
meaning in quiet reflection, the glory
OF the defeated has a nobler appeai
to the heart than the glory of the VIC
tor. Already the time is gone when
the impartial spectator, weighing the
facts of that situation in the balances
can feel inclined to use any language
save that of reverent honor as touch
ing the thin gray line, that broke and
melted away forever from Appomat-
toX. AS an army, it was defeated.
AS men, neither hunger nor thirst,
nor yet lost cause and bitter poy
erty ever broke their spirit Today
history is soberly record them as
soldiers who gave to their race and
country new standard of infiexiole
and heroic loyalty to principle.
As for the fifteenth amendment,

inertia, the spirit in which it wa,
placed there is not for men to exulr
In and the descendants of those whc
put it there would not do so today, if
the thing were now a matter of de-
bate. That amendment was approv-
by a minority of good intentioned
people, who little understood politi-
cal science, but it was engineered
through by the leaders of a party
that proposed to stay in power as
long as possible and punish the South
as thoroughly as possible. This Is
the plain unvarnished truth as his
tory reveals it.

A NORTHERN VIEW OF
STONEWALL JACKSON
WRITTEN DURING WAR
Presbyterian Standard)

Through the kindness of Mrs.
Stonewall Jackson we are able to
give our readers an editorial on the
"Death of Stonewall Jackson" writ
ten by Northern man, May %, 1863.
When we remember the bitterness of
feeling on both sides at that time,
the kind spirit of this editorial
speaks much for the man who. wrote
it and much for the man of whom it
was written.-Ed.)
9Th November, 1913.
Mrs. Mary A. jackson.
Dear Madam: l am not a veteran
of the war, for 1 am too young, but
war literature is very interesting to
me and particularly your contribu-
tions in the Hearst Magazine
l have read Henderson's "Stone-
wall Jackson" more than once, also
the Life and Letters of Margaret
Junkin Preston" 1 have always re-
garded your husband as one of the
original and interesting characters
of history. l pray that you will not
look upon this letter with it's enclos-
ure as anything other than trace of
Northern light in a period of dark
ness.
Asa Mcfarland was owner and ed
itor of the New Hampshire States
man many years. remember him
as an old man, but his sons have long
been my friends. Mr.. Mcfarland
was son of Concord's third town
minister, whose pastorate beginning
early in the 10th century ended in
1925. l mention this to show who
the writer of the editorial was,
written in the darkest days of war,
not in exultation, but in sadness, it
illustrates in large measure how Cen
Jackson was looked upon by people
who held him in respect, not hatred.
I have always regarded this country
editorial as one of those contribu-
tions to the truth of sincere judg-
ment of mans acts which deserve
recognition.
1t is with this sentiment. dear
madam, that l send the editorial to
you. Believe me very truly,
Charles r. Corning.
Let me say that the writer of this
editorial was republican-aImost a
radical.

NEW HOPE

Since the silence of few weeks I
will give a few words from our de-
lightful neighborhood. We are all
enjoying this beautiful weather. It
certainly has been one of the pref
tiest January's l have ever seen and
heard older people says that they
have never seen the like before. AS
[ said in my first letter of this New
Year, that we had a lot to be thank
full for, and we certainly have.
Small grain crops are looking fine.
Also clover and other cover crops are
growing fast during the bright sun
ny days. The farmers all have done
a lot of work-ploughing, cleaning
up land, clearing off old hedges, and
strengthening up in general, getting
early corn land ready. 1 understand
there are a lot of applicants for the
<. F. ID. routes that will start soon
from Union, Buffalo and Jonesville.
All three of the officers have had to
order more application blanks. 1 am
going to try for one and hope to be
successful, and am going to try very
hard to beat the other fellow, if a
fellow does not fight for himself
these days, he is out of the list al
together. So come along boys, and
let's meet Mr.. Young on the 18th
and have it out-the smartest man
wins.
There has been much horse tradinS
going on around here. I know a gen
leman who bought pair of good
mules last week for $s5. Now how
is that for cheap? 1t ought to be
good send off for the dealer.
Hey Denver, it was a mistake that
the young man you spoke of in your
letter of being run out of the depot
It Lockhart Junction a few weeks
ago. l know it is generally reported
Shat Lockhart Junction is a rough
lace, but not so bad that fellow
cannot spend the night. 1t would
have been our agents (Mr. Edward)
delight to have taken this young man
nome with him, and cared for him,
ne mas done others in the same
condition. Some one misconstrued
the fact. We dined at Mr.. Lee Gault's
Sunday, and we sure did eat, and ev-
erything on the table was made at
home by Mr.. Gault, and cooked bv
his sociable, good wife. If all we
farmers would live like Mr.. Gault, we
ould cut out the high cost of living.
There will be preaching here next
Sunday morning at II o'clock sharp,
by our new pastor, Rev. Cook. All
who can, come, those who come a
good ways can take dinner with some
# us. We will be glad to have you.
Come and hear good sermon, and
1T will make you better man. We
VIII expect you. Smike.

Death of Stonewall Jackson-EditOr
ial BY Asa Mcfarland in "New
Hampshire Statesman"
(May %. 1851
(May %, 1859

(May %, 1869
The people of Virginia are mourn
ing, as they rarely if ever did for any
other inhabitant of that common
wealth, the death of Stonewall Jack
son. His. name, as most readers may
be aware, was Thomas j. Jackson.
The prefix so generally used indicat-
ed one of the features of his mind
infiexibility of purpose. To that
were added other desirable attributes
by which men acquire influence over
others, and are long and affectionate-
ly remembered when they are gone.
Jackson was a remarkable person;
and his death is the subject of regret
among other people than those in re-
volt. The Albany Journal expressed
in one line the feeling of loyal peo-
pie, when it said: eve hoped for his
capture-not his DEATH"
The deceased general was one of
those who, in seasons of peril, throw
every impulse Of their souls into the
public service. He went into the re-
bellion with the same unquenchable
zeal, the same transfixed, immutable
purpose, that animated Robespierre
and st. Just in the first French Revo-
luton. Indeed, Jackson was the St.
Just of the rebellion, with this es-
sential difference, that Jackson cher
ished the most profound religious
convictions. He believed in Provi-
dence as made known in revelation.
He believed that human affairs ace
controlled by an Almighty Being
not as fatalist or deist believes,
but that God employs human agents
to carry into effect many of his own
designs. To infiexibility of purpose
and profound religious convictions
were added the most disinterested
purposes and the most heroic cour-
age. His zeal was clear and constant
as the light of a never-o -obscured star.
In all stages of the rebellion, his
whole soul was absorbed in it, He
went into the struggle utterly ire
spective of personal consequences.
He never, it is said, manifested a
mercenary purpose, and was as fear
less as a lion, although docile as a
child. His camp-alas! how unlike
the camps of many generals!-was a
place where prayer and praise ming
led on the altar; camp whence he
went forth to cares and duties and
perils, taking his life in his hand.
The careers and deaths of such
men are not without their influence
even upon those who cannot be ex-
pected to grieve when they are gone.
1t cannot be otherwise. We may de-
plore their errors, but find it impos-
sible to resist the effect of their ex-
allied conceptions of what they be-
lieved to be duty to their fellowmen,
their country, and their God. That
the deceased hero believed himself in
the line of his duty, there can be no

Paris, July 24.EThe defence in the
trial of Madame ICaillaux for the muir
der of CASTOR Calmette, editor of the
Figaro, was caught today in a trap in
nocently set by Madame Gueydan, once
the wife of the prisoners husband
The principal argument of Maitre La
bori, counsel for Madame Caillaux, has
been that his client was driven to her
desperate act in shooting NJ. Calmette
through fear that two letters of which
she was aware Photographic reproduc-
tons existed, would be published by
NJ. Calmette and the secrets of her
inner life thereby given the public.
This argument, it is said, will be re-
duced to nothing by the reading OF
the letters, which Madame Gueydan
reluctantly gave over to Maitre La
bori yesterday.

Great War Threatens

The efforts of European diplomacy,
should the Powers fail to avert the
threatened war, will be devoted to To-
CALLING it. Montenegro has indicat-
ed her readiness to support Servia in
the event of an Austrian attack. This
certainly would plunge the whole of
the Balkans into hostilities. Austria
counts on the neutrality of her allies,
Germany and Italy, but with the pos
sibiIity of Russian Intervention on be-
half of Servia, Austria would run
great risks of rising among her own
great Slav population.
