No man in history is of such ideal cx
cellence as (Jen. Robert Kdward Lcc, the
illustrious Virginian. He was tbo Sir
Oalahad of tlio Knights of the Round
Talile. For more than thirty years wc
have been sounding his praise, and the
more wo learn of his goodness, purity
gentleness, courage, magnanimity, cour
tesy and greatness the more we feel like
emphasizing our conviction and magnify
ing our admiration.
When his lovely daughter Annie, the
favorite child of his heart, died in War
ron county, N. C, in the war, it gave
great wound to the nolle soul and again
and agaiu ho wrote from the camp of his
deep sorrow. To his dear wife ho wrote
2lith of October 1SU-' :
"1 cannot express the anguish I feci
at the death of our sweet Anuie. To
kuuw that I shall never see her again on
earth; that her pl.icc in our circle, which
I always hoped one day to enjoy, is for
ever vacant, is agouizing in Iho extreme
Hut (iod in this, as in all things, has
mingled mercy with the blow in selecting
that mie best prepared to leave us, May
yot be able to join me in saving, 1 1 (is
will lie June !' When I reflect on all she
will escape iu life, brief and painful at
the best, nnd all we may hope she wi!
eiijiiy uilh her s.inited gramlinollier, I
e 11111.it wih her back. I know bow
111 n il vi will grieve and bow much she
will be mourned. I wish I could giv
you any conilurt, but beyond our hope in
the great mercy of (iod, and the belief
that he takes her at the time and plan
when it is best lor her to go, there is
njuo. May that same mercy be extend
el to us all, and may we bo prepared for
His summons."
Again writing to Mrs. Lee, referriug
to (jod's blessings and the defects of llie
people and the sadness and horrors of
war, be said :
"What should have become of us
without his crowning help and protec
tioa ? Oh, if our people would only rco
ognizc it, and cease from vain self boast
ing and adulation, bow strong would be
my belief in Goal success and happiness
to our country 1 Rut what a cruel thing
is war; to separate and destroy families
and friends, and mar the purest joys and
happiness God has granted us iu (bis
world; to fill our hearts with hatred io
stead of love for our neighbors and to
devastate the face of this beautiful
world I"
How this great man's piety shines out
auid the gloom and trials of war. What
t happy thing it was for our Southland
that there were such religious heroes io
the battles as Lee and Jackson and D. II.
Hill and Petligrew and others, who weie
ready for any event.
01 his splendid courage much could
bo said. His son wioto to hiui com
plaining that ho exposed himself too
much and urging him nut to do so. He
remarked one", for ho was ofteu rctui n
strated with : "I wish a.uue one would
tell me my pio,u r place iu battle. I am
always told I sho lid not be white I am "
Gi-n. Grant told us iu IStjS 1I11I l.e
exposed himself m re in the batilu U
Sliiloh than he did in all the remainder
of the war.
Gen. Leo deplored greatly the death
of Jackson. "Had I Stonewall Jackson
it Gettysburg I would have won 1 great
fight," he said to Professor White, of
Washington and Lee 1 'Diversity, after
the war.
An titiele in the Richmond Dispatch
on Gen. Fill Lee's book, says of the very
noble, striking appearance of the great
Southron:
"An English officer described him in
thePeiiuiyiiiiui.1 campaign a; having
courtly manners and being full of dignity;
that he bad none of the small vices such
as smoking, drinking, chewing and his
bitterest enemy had never accused him of
any ol the greater ones; that Lee was the
handsomest uiau of his age he ever saw
broad shoulders, well made, well set up,
and 1 thorough soldier io appearance.'
Gon. Grant deserves tho gratitude

Biston Transcript.
"The South has always been a distinc
tively agricultural section of tho Unit
States, anil but for the wasteful methods
which seemed the inevitable accompani
ment of labor, it is doubtful if the West
even with its almost boundless fields of
unsurpassed fertility, could ever have to
completely usurped the place which semi
cd the natural province of the South. Of
course, the war had much to do towards
breaking down the prestige of the rebel
lious States as a farming couotry, but
prior to the war there never were any
inducements held out to tho agricultural
class to come there and make it their
home, and by consequence immigration,
and tho surplus population of the East
drifted West necessarily. Thero was no
other place for it logo. It is only since
the war that the spirit of enterprise has
informed the Southern tier of States,
and this spirit has shown itself in various
ways, principally in manufactures and
mining operations. Latterly, and imme
diately because of the bad crops iu cer
tain sections of the West, resulting from
blizzards, droughts and destructive in
sects, the Southern States arc holding out
inducements to the farmers of the far
West to pull stakes and come to Dixie
land. And the invitations would seem
to be harkened to, for we aro told that
an advance body of farmers from western
Nebraska have arrived iu North Carolina
and have giveu assurance that, if they
ike the look of things there, they will
be followed by large numbers of their
Nebraska brethren. This corroborated
by dispatches from Nebraska that long
trains of canvass oovered wagons are con
slaiitly passing through that place filled
with disheartened settlers who are anxi
oils to find homes else vhere, and that as
many In 10,1)011 of them have left since
thu failure of ibis year's crops. There is
news of a similar moveineut from Wes-
eru Kansas, and also from eastern Calo
r.ido' The North Carolina papers offer
a welcome (0 these people, tell them that
land can be bought or leased there on
easy terms, and declare that (he Old
North State is just the place fur them
Other Southern States aro desirous of at
tracting tho fugitives from Nebraska,
Kansas, Colorado and Oklahoma.
"So the South may come to its own
again that is to say, it may become
what it is peculiarly fitted for in soil, cli
mate, accessibility to (he markets of tho
North and of the world, and cheap and
abundant labor a prosperous farming
community."

A certain girl in Cabarrus found a
package of lovo letters written to her
mother by her father before they were
married. Tho daughter saw (hat she
could have a little sport, and read them
to her mother, pretending they were of 1
late date, and substituting her uumo for
hat of her mother, and that of a fine
young man for that of her father.
The mother jumped up and down in
er ehair, shifting her feet and seemed
rribly disgusted and forbade her daugh
ter having anything to do with (he young
man who would write such Bickening
and nonsensical stuff to girl, When
the young lady handed the letters Io her
mother to read, the house became so atill
that one could hear the grass growing in

Whoever said, "Laujh and tho world
laughs with you; weep and you weep
alone," was indeed wise, for no truer
seutiuient was ever written. Thero is
nothing so certain to make you disliked
as to tell your (roubles to your friends.
'rosperity means friendship. You to
welcome everywhere. The world laughs
at your witty sayings and m ikes merry
with you.
There cumes a time when you are
downhearted and fortune ceases to tiuile
on you, aud jou look for sympathy from
I be Joir friendj who hsv hitrl your
prosperity; but, alas I you look iu vain,
and there are some who kindly vote you
boro. l'eople prefer amusemen(, and
the sight of a forlorn countenance is not
pleasant.
The best (hing, when you can force
yourself to it, is eheerfuluess. It is a
great tonic. It is light and air (0 our
moral nadire. To be without it is to be
all Southrons fur tho Ijne way he bore j without something that answers la (he
himself at (he surrender at Appomattox,
and the terms granted were liberal and
generous. "No man oould have behaved
better than Gon. Grant did, under the
circumstances," said Lee, (0 a friend in
Richmond. "Hi did not (ouch my
sword; the usual custom ia for the sword
to be received when tendered, and (hen
handed back, but he did not (ouch mine."

A SERMON IN RHYME.
If you have a Iriend worth loviug,
Love him yes, and let him know
That you lovo him e'er life's evening
Tinge his brow with sunset glow.
Why should good words ne'er be said
Of t friend, till he is dead ?
If you hear 1 song (ha( (brills you,
Sung by any child of song,
I'raiso it do not let the singer
Wait deserved praises long.
Why should one who thrills your heart
Lack the joy you may inipait ?
If you hear a prayer that muviw you
Ry its humble, pleading tone.
Join it do not let (he seeker
Row before his God alone,
Why should not your brother sharo
Tho atrength of two or three in pr:iyei
If you ace the hot lours falling,
Falling from a brother's eyes,
Share thcui aud thus by tho sharing
Own your kinship with the skies.
Why should any one be glad
When a brother's heart is sad ?
If 1 silvery laugh is rippling
Through the sunshine on his face,
Share il-r'lis tho wise man's saying,
Eur both grief and joy a place.
There's health and goodness io the mirth
Io which an holiest laugh has biilh.
If your work is made more easy
Ry a frien lly, helping hand.
Say so speak out brave and truly
Ere (he darkuess Viil the hind.
Should brother workman dear
Palter for a word of cheer ?
Scatter thus your seeds of kiudncsa,
All enriching as you go;
Leave them; trust the Harvest (liver,
He will make each seed to grow.
So until life's happy end,
You shall never lack a friend.

Worl" and Ruin f rooikt ly
He Demon, Drill
Tonight it enters a humble homo to
strike tho roses from a woman's check,
and tomorrow it challenges this republic
io (he halls of congress. Today it strikes
a crust from the lips of a starving child,
and tomorrow it levies from the govern
ment itself. There is no cottage io this
city humble enough to escape, no palace
strong enough to shut it out. It defies
the law when it can not coerce suffrage.
It is flexible (0 cajole, but merciless in
victory. It is the mortal enemy of peace
and order, the despoiler of men, (he terror
of women, the oloud that shadows the
face of children, tho demon (hat dug
more graves, and sent more souls unsaved
to judgment than all the pestilences that
have wasted life since God sent (he
plagues to Egypt, and all (he wars since
Joshua stood beyond Jericho. It eomis
to ruin, and it shall profit mainly by the
ruin ol your sons and mine. It cemos
to mislead human souls, and to crush
human hearts uuder its rumbling wheels.
It comes to bring gray haired mothers
down in shamo and sorrow to their
graves. It comes to change the wife's
lovo iuto despair, and her prido into
shame. It comes to slill tho laughter on
the lips of llie little children. It comes
Io stifle all the muio of Iho home, and
fill it with silence and desolation. It
comes to ruin your body and miud, to
wreck your home, and it knows it must
measure its prosierity by Iho swiftness

Denominational pride is another name
for religious weakness, nnd is proof of a
small nature. A broad and generous
man is in sympathy with all the sects of
Christendom, and would not impose the
form of worship which he personally pre
fers on any one, but insists that each
man shall believe what he pleases, pro
vided it results in an honest life.
God will never ask what special religi-
0 is body you belonged to, but whether
your faith made you a good citizen,
good father, a good friend and a good
man. There are no sectarians iu heaven;
they are all lovers os the noble and the
true in every clime and in every system
known to struggling humanity. A
Methodist or an Episcopalian or a Rap-
tist angel cannot be found in the New
Jerusalem.
The various sects which arc scattered
over the oarth arc simply so many ladders
by which (he people climb to the upper
regions. The foot of each ladder is on
Ihc ground, while the other end rests
firmly against the Throne. When wc
die wc shall leave the ladders behind, be
cause they will havo achieved their pur-
pso nnd we can havo no further use for
them.
The path by which you reach the top
of a mountain is of no consequence what'
ever, ana it your neighbor chooses 10
get there in some other way you are vciy
ungracious if you denounce him for ex
ercising his own judgment instead ol fol
lowing yours. His brains belong to him
aud your brains belong to you. You
may do us you please and ho may
d 1 as he pleases. If his eyes are lixed
on the summit, and he is doiug what he
can to attain it, God will certainly resrard
him with favor and you should do no
less The bigot can see only one way,
and that is his own way. He lacks a
very important clement of character be
cause ho isn't large enough to understand
that different temperaments require dif
ferent incentives and that what is gocd
for one may possibly be bad for another.
There is altogether too little charity in
the world for those who do not find it
easy to see things just as wc see them.
There are a thousand ways to do nearly
everything that is worth doing, and ote
way is as good another. To call this
man a heretic because ho has his individ
ual method of solving the puzzle of life
and that man orthodox because he hap
pens to think as you do is both unwise
and unchristian.
If you have a well developed soul you
can worship in any church that was ever
built, or you can worship without any
hurch at all. He is a poor kind ol
creature who is so prejudiced that be
can't find words with which to tell tho
Lord how gra(oful he is, whether he sits
in a Quaker meeting house or a Catholic
cathedral.
It is not the building but the idea
which it represents that is important. It
it of no onsequenco whatever that the
clergyman wears a surplice 01 does not
wear one; that the service is characteriied
by pomp aud ceremony or conducted
without these auxiliaries; that the edifice
is the exponent of the ecclesiastical arch
itect or only it barn iu the back woods.
If you get the idea, you get all you need
and all you can ask for. If you arc
snitten with remorse because your rcc
ord has blots and smurches on it, the
iu :re robes of the priest who thus smites
you will oount for nothing; and if you
resolve to load 1 life of integrity the
preacher has accomplished the task which
tho Lord Almighty gave him, whether
he is a Methodist or a Raplist.
The object of the Church is not to
make a man a sectarian, but make hiui
loyal to the truth. At least that should
bo it" object, and if it achieves that ob
ject, the fact that belongs (0 (his or that
or the other denomination is not worth a
second thought.
Vim should believe in something, and
that something should furnish you with
noble impulses, with charity for your fel
low men, with pity for (he unfortunate
and with a desire to do all that lies iu
your power to make this old world better
because you have lived in it . That mm h
of ft creed is absolutely necessary, and
when you havo that much you want no
moro. It will givo you work enough (0
keep you busy until death knocks at the
door and seuds you word that you arc
wanted somewhere.
A few convictions hammered out of
your own sense of dcpcndcnco and the
consciousness of your daily life need to be
watohod over and guided by the invisi
blc beings who "walk the earth both
whon wo wako and when we sleep" will
servo you better than all the theology
that waft over printed in books.
If you thiuk that one fteat serves your
purpose belter than any other jo'n it by
all means; but be careful that you don't
worship the ladder up which you climb
instead of the heaven against which the
upper ends of the ladder rests. And,
above all, don't criticise your neighbor
because he is made of different stuff and
chooBos to get to heaven in some other
way. If tha( neighbor is an honorublc
man and is doing the best his circum
stances allow givo bin) your wishes even
if ho goes to some other church than
your own. And if he prefers to say Li,
prayers at home or io the woods or in
any of the other temples of God still give
him a helping band anil not insult him
because he cannot thiuk as " do or
suit the Almighty because He made that
man to do just as he is doing.
You cannot prescribe a diet that shall
be equally beneficial to all. When you
spread your banquet allow each guest to
take what suits him. That is the only
true hospitality. If a man has any re
ligion at all don't ask him what kind it is
and sneer ut him because it is not yoir
kind, but be grateful because he and
you arc trying to get to the same place,
though be lakes ouc road and you another.
STILL WAITING.
THE HIRED U1RL II AS FUN WITH A
FRISKY TRAMP.
Thcro's a hird girl in Detroit who
ought to have a medal, says the Free
Press. The other morning a tramp came
to the kitchen door where she presides
and asked her for something to cat. It
wasn't the first one who had so presented
himself and sho was not at all pleased to
see him, but she didn't show it in her
manner.
"Will you sit down in the shade
there;" she said pleasantly, "and wait till
I gc( it for you?"
"Certainly, ma'am," he said unctious
ly, as he picled a soft place and deposi
ted himself upon it.
Sho went into the kitchen aud the
tramp waited. He continued to wait.
Every now and then she would appear
at the dour and hope would spring in
his breast, and he would smack his lips
only to see her disappear n;'ain. Finally
the strain became too great for him and
he came to the door.
"Excuse me, ma'am," he said, "I
thought maybe you had forgot me, ma'
am." "Oh, no, I haven't," she chirruped;
"I've been keeping an eye on you all (be
time. Didn't I tell you to wait until I
brought you something to eat?"
"Yes'm."
"And didn't you say you would?"
"Yes'm, but I'd like to know how long
I've got to wait."
She laughed merrily.
"That's so," she said, "I nover thought
of that; you'll have to wait only six
weeks or such a mutter," and there was
something in her (ones (hat prejudiced
him against her so that he went away
abruptly.

ADVERTISEMENTS.
Some of the manufacturers anoouocc
reductions of wages. This is precisely
what they did when the McKinlcy Rill
was passed. As they get more protection
iu many instances, than the Republican
platform demands, their reasons for re
ducing wages now aro just as good, and
not ft whit better, than after the passage
of tho McKinlcy Kill. A protected
manufacturer reduces wages whenever he
dares, with or without provocation.
