Since the Journal has grown to be a large and quite a newsy paper; the people seem to be encoureged very much, and we think when Autum has come with its abundant harvest: our good people of Bulks and adjoiuing counties will not hesitate to spend a little of their money, wheel, or one hundred (lOOcts) as the case may he, for it.

The dread of such treatment, and expos ure kept thousands of modest women silent about their suffering. They preferred the pains arid tartnre to going to a physician about such matters.

A monument to Lucinda Horn, hero ine of McGowan’s brigade in the civil war, has been unveiled at Chestnut Hill, fcaluda county, S. C., near the spot where the remarkable woman is buried. It is claimed by those who had the affair in charge that with the exception of the monuments to .loan of Arc this is the only one in the world dedicated to a woman for heroism on the battle field. The unveiling was attended by a vast number of count!y people, there being a particularly large gathering of old soldiers. Those-who conceived the idea and carried it out succeeded in accom plishing their unique project without attracting notice from beyond the bor ders of the county. Captain George B. Lake, who was wounded in the blowing up of “the crater,” was the orator of tho day. He confined himself to giving the war rec ord of Aunt Cindy, as sho was known in the brigade. This woman fallowed her husband into the army soon after the war began and remained until the close. The fatigue of tho march, the privations of the camp, the scanty ra tions, the heat, the cold —ail of these Ciudy Horn eudured bravely. But it was in the hospital and by the side of the stricken soldier on the field that she showed the tender woman's heart as well as the love cf country, and this en deared her to the men.

The Lancaster is a seagoing ship, with both steam and sail power, and is in first class condi tion. She is a larger and much finer ship than has been given to any other naval reserve battalion in the country. The Lancaster was for years the flag ship of tlie European station.

FITZ MEETS DR. DEPEW. They Have a Oliat on tlio Merit* of Tlielr IteiipFctlTo Art*. Robert Fitzsimmons was at Newport the other day. As soon as he arrived the newt spread from one end of the village to the other and even became the topic among the cottage dwellers. His advent had not hern tmuomiced, but he was recognized the moment he stepped from his carriage. After lunch Dob met Chauncey M. Dopew and had a sort of chat on the relative merits of their two arts. The doctor beamed with appreciation when Fitz said: “They say, Mr. Dopew, that the man don’t live who can stand up to you in an after dinner talk.” The two men shook hands warmly and tlio doctor felt Bob’s arm with an expression of aston ishment on his face. The pugilist was very much impressed with the beauty of Newport and said he was astouished at the number of magnificent homes that lined' the avenues. Wherever he went fashion halted to t-dre a look at his broad shoulders and many ladies were introduced to him. Fitzsimmons re ceived the attentions lavished upon him modestly, but with visible delight. Many invitations to go driving and to dine were declined by the champion cn tlio ground that he found it much pleas anter to be free from engagements of any kind. While Fitzsimmons was at Mr. De pew ’s lie met young Cornelius Vander bilt, and the two engaged iu quite a conversation. The latter afterward re marked to a friend that 1.0 was very agreeably surprised in Fitzsimmons; that he was very much of a man, with gentlemanly manners and an honest, open countenance. In the afternoon Bob and bis secretary visited the flagship New York, where they received a great ovation. As the cutter left with Bob on board the deck of the big cruiser was lined with jack tars, who gave him a parting cheer. —Philadel- phia Press. FOR KLONDIKE GOLD. Canada Thinks of Establishing; a Yukon Treasury. It is understood that the Dominion government has under consideration a project in connection with the adminis tration of the Yukon district which is novel, but appears admirably calculated to meet the conditions existing in the new communities of tb<* exireme north west. It is the establishment of what might bo termed a “treasure house,” in which will be stored tho gold of the miners and for which they will receive drafts ou United States or Canadian banks of the full market value of their gold dust. The importance of such a depository in such a country as the Klondike dis trict may readily be estimated. Under existing conditions the task of guarding their gold is an arduous addition to tiie labors of tho miners. It is expected that this provision of what are practically banking facilities will go far toward reconciling the miners to the 10 per cent royalty which they will have to pay to the government. Practically they will be paying an income tax of 10 per cent for the preservation of law and or der, the storage of their gold and for its safe delivery to market. If the gold is stored in a central place under this proposed plan, the officials of the law will find the task of preserv ing order greatly simplified, for the miners will not bo under tbe necessity of carrying arms, nor will the rougher sort likeiy spend as much gold in riot ous living. It will, of course, be neces sary for the government to take great precautions to insure the safety of the gold, but the presence of 50 or 100 mounted police and three or four maxim guns will be a great deterrent to the envious and greedy.—New Y’ork Sun. Negri) American Poet la Loudon. Paul Dunbar, the American negro poet, has captured Loudon. He has been received with marked attention by good society, and he is in big demand in the most fashionable drawing rooms. No color line is drawn in England, and the talentfd American is much sought aft er. He reads his verses at receptions, garden parties and other entertainments, and lie has received the most favorable criticisms from the press. Mr. Dunbar went to London well recommended by W. D. Howplis-aud other American lit erary lights wel 1 known to -the British public. His humblecrigiuand thestory of his seif culture, struggles and final triumph have won him a peculiar re gard in England, where the negro slave and the prejudices against him and his descendants have never existed. Mr. Dunbar expects to spend several months in Louden, and be will have no luck of occupation, judging by his early suc cesses. Ilis mission promises to be all that he holies it to be.—Exchange. Keeps a Seat at the Table For Clir!-t. The Duke of Northumberland, the oldest pter in England, is a man of very great eccentricities. He will be 88 years old in October, having been Lorn in 1810.
