CONFEDERATS SHARPSHOOTER. Killed During Early's rtetreat l-rom Washington. A pathetic incident of Memorial day will be the decoration of a single grave on the historic farm of F. P. Blair, Sr., just beyond Fort Stevens. This lonely grave is that of an unknown Confederate sharpshooter, the last man in gray to fall during Gen. Jubal Early's advance upon Washington by a portion of the Army of Northern Virginia on July 10, 1S64. General Early, by rapid marches, seriously threatened the capital city and reached a point confronting Fort Stevens on the northern outskirts of Washington. Maj. Gen. A. McD. McCook confronted the hosts in gray. His force consisted of Columbia Volunteers, District of Columbia Volunteers. Colonel Alexander; the Ninth regiment, Veteran reserve corps, also Captain Gibb's Ohio battery and Capt. Bradbury's Maine battery, with a force of government clerks who were armed for the protection of the city of Washington. These two forces of blue and gray confronted each other at first on the Piney Branch, midway between Washington and Fort Stevens. Ewell's old corps encamped on the farm of F. P. Blair, Sr. The battle that followed and the assault on Fort Stevens is a matter of history. It is well known that President Lincoln stood upon the ramparts of Fort Stevens until he was ordered back by the cry of the Union soldiers, "Lincoln to the rear! Lincoln to the rear!" When the famous Sixth army corps appeared on the scene Early began his retreat on the night of July 12 and the morning of July 13. The rear of his retreating army was protected by a cloud of Confederate sharpshooters, mostly Mississippians. They dodged from bush to bush and tree to tree and fired with uneering aim into the advancing columns of blue. The last of these sharpshooters to * " "? *_ 1 _1_T J_ ^ ? J ? I lose nis lire aunng uiai/iamuus episuuc \ in history was a boyish Mississippi an, who had clambered into a great tree near the famous Blair mansion, and was picking off the Union officers. He remained too long engaged in his game of death and a volley from one of the advancing Union companies brought him to the sward. His body remained there until the echoes of battle had died away in the distance. Then it was that the remains of this fair-haired Mississippi 1 boy were discovered by members of the Blair family. There was nothing about him to indicate his name or place of residence. He was buried by tender hand9 beneath the tree which had been his covert retreat while protecting the rear of his commander's army. There is not the remotest trace of his name or from whence he came, except in a general way that he was a Mississippian, and perhaps for long years this unknown soldier in gray has been mourned by loving mother, father and relatives, who do not know upon what battlefield of the South he perished. The lonely grave on the outskirts of Washington has not, however, been forgotten by loving hands. A little monument of white marble marks the last resting place of this boy sharpshooter of the Southland, and on ever}* recurring Memorial day j garlands of beautiful flowers are placed upon the mound by the members of one of the most distinguished families of the State of Maryland. Today members of the Confederate society of Washington will add their tribute to the unknown marksman. In common with the grand family which has provided him with such a picturesque resting place and such a beautiful tribute in marble.?Washington Post, May 30.

This organization, of course, is beneficial to the carriers, and it is to be regretted that all are not interested in the work which it is intended to improve, and keep more closely in touch with each other. The Leesville and Batesburg carriers are uniformed which adds greatly to their already good looks. Honestly, Uncle Sam has in this county a good looking set of kind, obliging and capable messengers. We were sorry we could not meet them all and shake their hands. But on Wednesday we hardly have time to receipt for silver cart wheels which run business so nicely.

In every newspaper we pick up we are sure to find a lot of gush about the man behind the counter and the man behind the gun, the man behind the buzz saw and the man behind his son, the man behind the bars and the man behind the cars, and everything behind has entered on the list. They skipped another fellow of whom nothing has been said?the fellow who is even or a little way ahead, who always pays for what he gets, whose bills are always signed?he's a blamed sight more important than the man who is behind. All we editors and merchants and the whole commercial plan are indebted for existence to the honest fellow man. He keeps us all in business, and his own town is never dead, and so we take off our hat to the man who is ahead. ?Florida Fraternal Record. ? Granted Requisition. Atlanta, May 31.?Gov.

If her system is in a deranged condition, or she is predisposed to apoplexy or congestion of any organ, it is at this time likely to become active and, with a host of nervous irritations, make life a burden. At this time, also, cancers and tumors are more liable to begin their destructive work. Such warning symptoms as a sense of suffocation, hot flashes, dizziness, headache, dread of impending evil, sounds in the ears, timidity, palpitation of the heart, sparks before the eyes, irregularities, constipation, variable appetite, weakness and inquietude are promptly heeded by intelligent women who are approaching the period of life when woman's great change may be expected. We believe Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is the world's greatest remedy for women at this trying period. Lydia E.
