Most of Them Passed the Closing Years ot Their Lives in Poverty, Washingion News. It is a melancholy fact that al-| most every Confederate General who succumbed to disease or fell in battle died in poverty brought on by his devotion to the cause he es- i poused, says the Brooklyn “Eagle.” Raphael and Paul Semmes both | died poor themselves, but a daught- | } of the former married a prosperous lawyer, Gen. Zollicoffer. She left | nothing to a family of five daughters | four of whom married well. The The fifth may have done likewise,al though accurate trace of her has been lost. Gen.

Jackson left bis wife and daughter without means, but they were seas onably helped by legacies. Gen. Polk left nothing to his family, but his son, Dr. Polk, located in New York and built up a very large and practice. Gen. Forrest, who bs came a farmer, laborded hard to suc ceed as a planter, but at his death letf only a meager inheritance to his family. Mrs. Gen.

Whiting, of Fort Fisher fame, who} left nothing | died in prison in 1864; and Gen. L. M. Walker killed by Marmaduke in a duel, left but little to his wife. Gen. Buckner had a varied ex perience. His wife owned large tracts of unimproved real estate in Chicago, which was confiscated, but afterward recovered.

Zack Deas, of Alabama, whose fame may not! have been equal to that of others, was a shrewd financier. He went into Wall street after the war and became rich. Gen. P. D.

Lorin served four years in the | Egyptian army, then turned to Americs and became connected with a mining company of New Mexico, where he made money fast and be- came wealthy. Another who went to Egypt was Gen. A. W. Reynolds. He served awhile, dropped out of service, and then settled down in the country of his adoption. The careers of Early and Beaure gard are well-known.

The duties of a college president were faithfully fulfilled by | him, though it is probable that the last years of his life were filled with an infinite sadness.

On the first resolution offered by McCall tkat H. L. Moore was not elected to Congress from the Second district, the yeas were 90 and the nays 226 The second part of the resolution declared that Fun ston was elected and entitled to the seat. On this motion the vote stood, ayes, 31; nays 127. Funston stated to day that the contest now practic- ally ended had cost him $7,000. in county never Kansas CUNGRESSM: MORGAN TALKS.

This infinitesimal paint- ing is on the smooth side of a grain of common white corn. It depicts a mill and a miller mounting a side stair with a sack of grain on his back. Upon the terrace where the mill stands is a horse and cart, and in the road near by are a group of peasants.
