PT? 175 9, T.nTTRY TTASHISUT05 LETTER. " (From our regular correspondent.) Washixgtos, August, 4 188. ; The public buildings of Washing ton are draped in mourning; literal miles of black cambric are ; wound around the marble colums . and fes tooned from the - wide, windows of Dublic edifices. A email number - of private residences and a large num ber of saloons are also hung in black. Perfnnctory sorrow is lavish in ex pression, and the department pre sided over by the secretary , of the interior, the "Rebel Lamar" excels all others in tastf ulness and elabora tion of funeral decoration. There is a hackneyed latin maxim, "Nil moriuis nisi bonus.'.' If the last word were: Veritas. ) instead , or bonus, the maxim would be good in deed. A life Is eood . only for its lesson and its bemficence. Death cannot change the 'account. U ush ing journalism is not history. - . As a crener&l. Grant was success- f ai. Of the sirrmlc truth that two bayonets are stronger than one, and that a powerful, well-equipped, and constantly recruited army will over come a weak, starvicie and dimin ishing army, he availed himself to a greater extent than did any other general of the late war. . He was . at the fore front when .the wearisome, gastly struggle closed, and he bore himself mrgnantmously toward tne fallen. He will ever have the praise of military successand he deserves moreover, such admiration as is giv en to the not uncommon phenome non! of a kind heart. Gen. Grant's faults', failures and misfortunes were not of the heart, but of - head. Of all greatness, military greatness is obtained with least expanse of In tellect. The glory of the warrior is the mqst vulgar of Ml glories, the ksnost accidental, the easiest won and ost. Military success is in over coming physical Qhstaoles, and In it, neither genius nor a "high order of intellect Is required,, bnt simply sensible application of dynamic for ces. That military greatnes Is the greatness which has always had the outlest vulgar acclaim proves nolh ne. The author of the "Poisened I gum drop or the Candy Woman's ! Revenge," has more . readers than j Bacon or Shakespeaie. Gen. Grant's roQBtal wakhess be- can situ apparent when the smoke of the battle no longer oD3curea ana idealized him. . After the war he be- came tbe.tool of a corruptea ana i te i dauched party, and ej, a presl-1 dent, fce. allowed a cltque ol semsn, j vulgar, dishonest men to use him J for the furtherance of their ambition and greed. The presidency of Orant I was the most disgraceful in, flr. at- j ional annals i one. o his last official I acts was to smooth the way, for the I conspiracy1 and the usurpation which deprived popular suffrage of the I ereatest victory it ever acmeyeq.

Urant was a brave, stubborn fighter, a nrin friend, an indulgent father; it must also be conceded that be was a weak, unconstitutional, blundering states man, so poor a mannger of the nat ional household, that he liandcd tt over corrupted and debnichiedt Q one who na fight to receive it.

The production has .been steadily curtailed, yet the dividends declared by the great cotton mill companies of the East are . cut down to the lowest point short of absolute loes . ' . Why 3Ioney Is Locked np. . The real obstacle to enterprise and the real weight that drags down trade, both here and abroad, is the gold standard. As Mr. Atkinson truely enough say s, the doubt as to whether the standard of vajue will remain the same deters men from making new investments. ." The gold standard, instead of being fixed and steady, has been risiug higher and higher for the past ten years, and accordingly prices of all kinds of commodities have been falling. Whatever a man ha9 bought or' "pro duced, he has been obliged to sell for a little less than it cost him, and both trade and manufactures have therefore been unprofitable. For all that appears, gold will go on rising and prices will go on . tailing for some time to come, and until capital ists can be assured that the bottom has heeu reached they naturally pre fer to wait.' Their gold dollars meas ured la merchandise, are' growing bigger and bigger all the while, and they can gain more by sitting - still than they can by going to work.. Conversely, the establishment of the silver, dollar as the monetary g jaorlapd wou ld break tnc deadlock ftU(j cause trade to revive. For, while g0i Das been rising in value silver na9 kept company wHU th.e other product q( hman, lgdvutFy-, and is th,eeiaf a truer measure of thtir value. The fall in prices would be arrested, and men could" make investment with a reasonable assur- ance of profitable return?. Five Ktlllon Pounds of Sugar.

Shoesbebver's iron and stee works, of Pittsburg, will start up Temper. , Our first duty with temper is wise- j ly to control it. . It is not an uncom mon thing with persons of fierce and violent temper, to hear. : both tbem- J selves and their friensd apologize for them. . 'Poorv fellow I it is said. the has such a terrible temper," as if it were some natural heritage and cal amity, an accident over which the man could not be expected to exer cise control, a thing far more to be pitied than to be blrmed. ' Men set up a strangely lenient code of mor als about bad temper. Men who would be most properly indignant if you -suspected them of untruth or dishonesty. will quietly say, "I know I have a bad temper," as com placently as if they were "really re vealing one of their hidden virtues. Now, no man will seek to control his temper unless he feels strongly that it is his dnty to hold it in sway for Christ's sake, and that uncontrolled temper is a most serious sin in God's signt. xx we orana evil temper as a sin, to be removed by Uod's grace, and as a weakness and disgrace to ourselves, we shall then take the first step towards true self control. Some people f hmk - it virtuous to say they have no temper. They scarcely realize, in their love for sweetness and amiability, that the glory of man is royal warm-hearted ness, not the passivity of the fish. Sweet amiability which is too weak for temper, will prefer peace to righteousness, and out oa such in difference any wrong may come to be permitted. To be .without proper temper is to be a moral shuttlecock, making life a game in which the mot to is"Hush!" and enjoyment any how the pursuit. Courage and man hood cannot live in such a nature. False peace is bought to-day, to be heavily mortgaged to-morrow, with moral bankruptcy as the sure sequel. In many a home, if the first neglect or wrong had been kindly and wise ly dealt with, and not passed over for peace's sake, a career of ruin might have been stopped, and boars weary with sorrow been bright with love. When a great and generous heart sees weakness injured, and ex- presses wholesome anger, it makes I us feel safer to know there are such I men. io feature of Christ s char-1 acter is more beautiful and solemn I than his power of righteous indigna-1 lias. Christ lives with men in life's battle, while Buddha only dreams. Christ is the Master of life and is never mastered by t. Temper con trollednot either wearing the dress of a false patience or resignation, much less killed is - the Christian ideal. The Quiver. - ' - -. -"Rejoicings Down Sooth. Lexinqtox, Kt. Mr. John - T. Bruoe, of the United States Revenue Collector, s Office, informed an editor of the Daily Press, of this city, that for seven years he stiff erd terribly from rheumatism in his ankle which most of the time was swollen to two or three times its natural size, and was so. painful that he could not put his foot to the ground. After trying everything he eould think of without obtaining relief, he' at ten o, clock one morning applied Kt. Jacobs Oil, and shortly afterwards made two further applications. At three o'clock that afternoon the pain waa cone ; the swelling also, disappeared, and the cure s as permanent, as it was quick. .. The development of sport in Amer ca bas been rapid and profltaole.

Grant has received the most delicate and heartfelt sympathy in bis ' illness and misfortunes from some of the confederate officers and soldiers who had known him in ,the old army," said au intimate friend of his the other day. "And appro pos of this is an incident which occurred last year. When the news of his complete pecuniary collapse became public there was a very general ex pression of regret all over the coun try and many offers of assistance were tendered, none of which, how ever, he accepted. " I was sitting with him at his residence one morn- n whUe be was goingover his daily i m&il. when be looked up witn a cu- Hons e-snression and said : 4I want I TOU to listen to this.' and then he i . . ... i proceeded to read. - it was a letter I from an old officer of the United (States army whom Grant had known I in Mexico, who left the service just . Bae time that GrftHt dld. . gabserjuentlv became ft distln- . hcd conflate eeneral officer. . . .. j m a - . MT1 fMa . " 'My Dear Grant You and 1 w r - have known each other for many vpr. arid hp pause of that long, and years, mu " in its early daytimate ance and friendship, I venture to ,ask you to do me a favor. I have read in the papers that by reason of cir cumstances beyond your control you have lost the means you rel.ed upon as a maintenance during the balance . nnr ,;A a f.vnr r Wish tO i vt i v4w - ask is that you will allow mc to send yo $10,000 to be considered oaa "paid at our own conven- ience.

Be assured, my dear orant. that you will confer a personal fa vor on me bv permittinz me to be of this slight service to you.' "Do you know who it "Yes," he replied, "bat I cannot give his name. He is a man 'of l&re fortune and eotild easily have doao it, but respecting his friend's wiah Grant desired that his name should not be made public - I have nsver seen Gen. Grant show so much emo tion and appreciation as he did in this instance. Shortly after that congress passed the bill empoweriag the-president to retire a former gen-. eral officer of the army on full pay, and Grant was at ; once . nominated and confirmed, and thus was put be yond the need of availing himself of the generous liberality of Lis friends." ' There is reason to believe that tie person who wrote Gen. Grast th letter mentioned was - Gen. S. S. Buckner, of Kentucky. ' Another case something very much like this is said to. have beep done by a Virginian who was a general oScr in the confederate) arm y when very young and bears a historic - name. He requested a clergyman he knew very well, also an intimate friend of Grant's, to ascertain as delicately at possible if the latter was really in fi nancial straits. If he was he intend ed to write to Grant and proffer th loan of $5,000 which be had on hand with ho immediate use for.' The cir cumstances came to Gen. Grant'! knowledge and he wrote a very In- pres-jiye letter to tLis ofScer. Asgost Ttria, 18S4., ?
