.0) ,ke bad c eated ftorn his fact?
I know, beMika tli)r-, as AJstoa'e
fii-ud kii"", that h hrtd a sort of
u ,-.6 it o is Jra i of dying a violent
death. S iule he loved bis ancestors
atd Louoied their high fpirit, he has
told me t:me and again that his high
tut am'jition w8 to n die il
petce. He paid to mo ouce that he bad
kneeled by bis boy's bedside and pray
ed Ged that he might be allowed to
leave him a legacy of peace. The night
he left Atlanta to go to meet Mr E Y
Clark, in Alabama, he paritd with me
at the old Castleberry corner. He
tamed and leaned against the well
that stood there and prayed aloud
that he might come back without hav
ing done or suffered violence. He
never knew what bodily fear was. I
have seen him do the most audacious
tlings, and he has now written cour
age with bis life-blood.
He was gentle of spirit, and he
shuddered At the thought of bloodshed
His impulsive nature And most often
his geneious chivalry frtquently le
him into difficulties, but he always
sacrificed all that honor would per mit
p avoid violence.
I heard it said yesterday that he
bad kil ed two men. Nothing could
be falser, lie never fought a duel.
He never hurt a human being. He
never carried a pistol- He was author
ity oa the code, and has adjusted
more difficulrie, I presume, than any
man in Georgia. The saddest mem
ory of bis life, as I know, was his
connection with the McGraw-Tabor
duel. An article appeared in the
Charleston Mercury assailing Judge
McGraw. Young McGraw, Alston's
frieud, challenged the three editors
of the paper, declining to hold the
author of the article responsible, and
oon tending that the publication was
the offer 03. Tabor accepted, Alston
loaded the pistols. At the second fire
Tabor sprang into the air and fall to
tbe earth a corpse. Alston never get
over the horror of that sight. He be
lieved in the 'code,' but he believed
in it as a peace-maker. He held that
it settled difficulties rather than raised
them: 'Under tbe code,' said hp,
street fights are impossible and mur
dtrs almost so. In Charleston, with
the code in vogue, there was not a
murder in twenty yeart. Tho c6de
simply means that two gentlemen in
passion shall leave their dispute to
two gentlemen who are cool and dis
interested. His own death seems to
give weight to his argument. Had
his difference with Cox been left two
honrs it would have been settled
He laugh1 d to me a few months ngo
when I Loted him wi h an old ene ny.
'Oh, I am getting cooler now. I tbiuk
I am going to break tbe old tradition
that the Alstons must d e in their
boots.' There was a flivor of sad Lest
in this remark. I know that this vague
horror of a violent death overshadowed
hia whole life. Wh t o 1 1 'have
been more piteous, to those who know
the fire thai lived in the man's heart,
and the pride that flashed through his
veins, than the abject way in which
he tried to avoid the difficulty with
Cox. How he avoided him, dodged
him, expostulated, begged for peace
asked his friends to interfere and save
him, and at last threw himself in the
Treasurer' chair and said: 'How awful
it ie to be hunted down by a man
who is determined to kill yen!' Ah
God alone knew how that proud heart
wps rung, and that gentle aprit
tortured, when it uttered Mtet cry!
And abeut the last thing he did was
to wslk up to Cox, lay aisltwo hands
gently on hia breast and looking into
his enemy s face with that frank,
witifome way of his, say: 'Ed, why
should we have a difficulty ? I don't
want to kill you, and, you oughtn't to
w nt to kill me.'
When at last he saw tkat the fight
must come he met it grandly and like
the man he was. When Cox with his
pistol in his baud, turned to lock the
door for the death struggle, how easily
Alston conld have killed hio). But no !
Inert he sat calmly awaiting, until his
assailant had inroad fnll nnnn him.
Then he aroee deliberately, and stood
herved for the deadly ahock. And he
taetit like a hero! He never stirred
from his tracks. He stood erect, liis
bead thrown back in the old royal
WaT half wheeling on his heels at each
hot to confront his enemy, who dod
ged and jumped from one aide of the
room to the other. When hia pistol
napped, and ha knew hia life was
gone, he never blanched or dodged.
turned toward Helms, hia friend,
dwth m the old Alston way!
inere was a touching thing done by
Ed Mercar, who always loved Alston
passing well. He knew of Alston's
fears that he would die a violent

h s eyre, 'Poor Bob! He shall
not die in hia boote.' and he

THE SUN FOR 1879.
THE SUN will be printed every day during
the year to come. Its purpose and meth
od will be the same as in the past. To pre
sent all the news in a readable shape, and to
tell the truth though the heavens fall.
The Sun has been, is, and will continue to
be independent of everybody and everything
save the Tiuth and its own convictions o
duty. That ;tbe only policy which an hon
est newspapei .d have. That is the policy
whicb has won for this newspaper the confi
dence and friendship of a wider constituency
than was ever enjoyed by any other Ameri
can Journal.
Thh Sun is the newspaper for the people.
It is not for the rich man against the poor
man, or for the poor man against the rich
man, but it seeks to do equal j istice to all in
terests in tbe community. It is not the organ
of any person, class, sect or party. There
need be no mystery about its loves and hates.
It is for the honest man against the rogues
every time. It is for the honest Democrat as
against the dishonest Republican, and for the
honest Republican as against the dishonest
Democrat. It does not take its cue from the
utterances of any politician or political or
ganization. It gives its support unreserved
ly when men or measures are in agrement
with the Constitution and with the principles
upon which this Republic was tounded for
the people. Whenaver the Constitution and
constitutional principles are violated as in
the outrageous conspiracy of 1S76, by whicb
a man not elected was placed in the Presi
dent's ofllce, where he stills remains itspeaks
out for tbe right. That is Thb ScVs idea
of independence. In this respect there vill
be no change in its programme for 187'J.
Tub Sum Las fairly earned the hearty
hatred of rascals, frauds, and humbugs of all
sorts and sizes. It hones to deserve that
hatred not less in the year 1879, than in 1878,
1877, or any year gone by. Thk Sun will
continue to shine on the wicked with unmiti
gated brightness.
JWhile the lessons of the patt should be con
stantly kept before thepeopleTiiK Si n does
not propose to make itself in 1879 a magazine
of ancient history. It ia printed for the men
and women of to-dav, whose concern is chief
ly with the affairs of to-day. It has both the
disposition and the ability to afford its read
ers the promptest, fullest, and most accurate
intelligence of whaetTcr in the wide world is
worth attention. To this end the resources
belonging to well-established pre spur ity will
be liberally employed.
The pre-ent disjointed condition of parties
in this country, and the uncertainly of the
future, lend an extraordinary significance to
the events of the coming year. Tne discus
sions of the press, the debates and acts of Con
gress, and the movements of the leaders in
every section of the Republic will have a di
rect bearing on the Presidential election of
1880 an event which must be regarded with
the most anxious interest by every patriotic
American .whatever his political ideas or al
legiance. To these elements of interest may
be added the probabilities that the Democrats
will control both houses of Congress, the in
creasing feebleness of the fraudulent Admin
istration, and the spread and strengthening
everywhere of a healthy abhorence of fraud
in any form. To present with accuracy and
clearness tbe exaet situation in each of its va
rying phases, and to expound, according to
its well-known methods, the principles that
should guide us through the labyrinth, will
be an important part of The Sea's work for
1879.
We have the meats of makdng The Sun, as
a political, a literary and a general newspa
per, more entertaining and more useful than
ever before ; and we mean to appiy them
freely.
