THK II)Kj(1 ADMIRAL.
That Is AVhat Napoleon Would Hare
.Said of Schley.
In a recent issue of the Griffin
News, Dr. J. C. Beauchamp, of
Williamson, a well-known physi
cian, citizen and legislatorof Pike,
had the following interesting arti
cle:
Recently, while reading an old
volume, entitled: “Dramatic
Scenes and Incidents in the life of
Napoleon Bonaparte,” I came
across a paragraph, which might
be of some public interest, in view
of recent events connected with
our navy.
The English Admiral Cockburn,
while conveying his distinguished
prisoner to the Island of St. Hele
na, had frequent conversations
with Napoleon. During one of
these conversations, Napoleon,
discussing the of the
French navy, and the reason for
the same said: “The French Ad
mirals had generally, upon coming
to action lost too much time, and
been too anxious about forming
lines and making maneuvers which
had ultimately proved of no ade
quate advantage; ho had therefore
desired that they might be in
structed that for the future on ap
proaching an enemy, a signal to
form a line, as convenient for
mutual support, and afterwards a
signal to engage, would always be
deemed fully sufficient to make
to those under their orders; and
after this the captain of every
ship of the licet was to beheld in
dividually responsible to the gov
ernment tor getting the ship he
commanded quickly into close
battle, and doing his best, towards
the destruction of someone of
the enemy; which would pre
vent the captains from covering
their own neglect, by attributing
errors to their chief.”
This great master of the science
of war on land seems to have had
very little respect for naval boards
of strategy, who conducted manou
verings at long law, and Schlej,
the hero of Santiago, would have
been the ideal admiral for the
great warrior, had he lived and
fought the great naval battle in
Napoleon’s day.
Another fact I note in this old
volume, is that the Count Lefebre-
Desnouotts, with the Baron Lalle
mand, fled to America after the
battle of Waterloo, and helped to
form the “Champ d’ Ail,” in
Texas.
In tin* literature at my command
1 have failed to fi ml enlightenment
as to this particular settlement in
Texas by the French exiles. Per
haps you or someone of your
readers may lie able tothrowsome
light on this point. Truly,
J. C. Bkauchamp.
Williamson, Ga., Feb. 28.
A Georgia editor thus declines
tn become a candidate for office;
“No, kind but deluded friends,
the mission of the hireling who
holds the plow handles of this pa
per is to keep the fires burning on
the altar of liberty and the bea
con light blazing on the shore of
tilin' at $1 per blaze invariably in
advance. He dpes not hunger or
thirst after official life. He did
think once he would like to go to
the legislature, but he has grown
in grace since then and uprified
his system of that unholy desire.
Since then he has not yearned a
single yearn nor hankered a single
hank after political distinction.”

WASHINGTON LETTER
Chatty Oosslp About Our Royal Visi
ltor--How nr. Roosevelt Fooled
The German Detective-* A Duel
Between Tillman and Mc-
Laurin--Senator De
pew’s Dinner,.Etc.
From our regulnr correspondent.
Washington, D. C., February
20.—Prince Henry’s visit reminds
me that a society for the preven
tion of cruelty to princes will be
a pressing need if the royal fami
lies contract the habit of sending
princes to visit us. If someone
was known to work a hired man
as Prince Henry has been worked
this week that portion of our pop
ulation which makes a specialty
of looking after o. p. —other peo
ple’s business —would be howling
to beat a score of bands. He
must be naturally industrious or
be would have revolted at the
programme arranged for him. Of
course, “everybody as is anybody”
in Washington will tell as long as
they live about what they said to
the Prince and what the prince
said to them, and about ninety
nine per cent of it w'ill be what
McLaurin said Tillman told and
thereby got hit in the jaw and had
them both put in legislative lock
for an indefinite period. Asa
matter of cold fact very few have
had an opportunity to talk to the
Prince. At the White House a
few got a chance to shake hands
and “pass the time o’day” with
him when he called; at the ban
quet a few more got the same
chance; it was the same on the
special train that carried him
back, at the launching, and at the
banquet on the royal yatch. And
of the few that got the opportuni
ty to talk to him still fewer got
any talk out of him, as he was
wise enough to let the other fellow
do most of talking. His object
seems to be to gain information,
not impart it.
Two German detectives were
posted outside the German embas
sy while Prince Henry was there.
One of them had a camera and
said that he intended to get a snap
shot at President Roosevelt when
he called on the Prince, but
lie didn’t. The President called
and went away before the detect
ive knew anything about it. He
went in a carriage alone, and the
detective was looking for him to
come with a bodyguard of soldiers.
Lovers of good music are much
pleased with the organization of a
permanent symphony orchestra by
about sixty of the best musicians
in Washington, under the conduc
torshipof Mr. Reginald l)e Koven,
the well known composer, which
was this week consumated. Mr.
I)e Koven has secured a guarantee
fund of SIO,(XX) for the mainte
nance of the orchestra, which will
at once begin rehearsals for its
first public concert.
Ex-Attorney General and Mrs.
Grigg have been in town several
days and have been the recipients
of marked social attention, in
cluding several large dinner par
ties. Mr. Griggs says his visit
was necessitated by legal business
and that he brought Mrs. Grigg
along so she could visit some of
the many friends she made while
residing in Washington.
The talk about a duel between
Senators Tillman and McLaurin
as a result of their scrap that
occurred on the'floor of the senate
has at no time been seriously con
sidered. notwithstanding the big
headlines in the yellows. Speak
ing of that talk, Mr. J. T. Hollo
way, a prominent South Caroli
nian, now in Washington, said:
“It is out of the question. The
sentiment of our state is so averse
to settling of personal difficulties
iu that way that no man who en
gaged in a duel could ever hope to
gain public favor. Besides we have
a rigid state law that makes a par
ticipant in a duel forfeit the right
to vote or hold office. A resort to
pistols would make them both ob
jects of ridicule. The code is as
defunct down our way as slavery.”
There were at least two big men
in town this week whose coming
had no connection with the visit
of Prince Henry, although one of
them attended the White House
dinner in his honor. By a coin
cidence they were both registered
at the same hotel. They were
Hon. Richard Onley, of Mass.,
who was credited with the author
ship of a paper, while serving as
secretary of State that made his
contempt for royalty, even of the
toned down brand, apparent to all
the world, and Hon. Thomas B.
Reed, of New York and Maine,
who enjoyed the title of Czar too
long to give any attention to one
so small as prince. Both gentle
men were here on business before
the U. S. Supreme Court.
Mrs. Maria Y. Dongell, of Salt
Lake City, a daughter of Brigham
YounAh the Mormon leader, who
THURSDAY, MARCH S, 1902.
\*J-r a delegate to the National
Council of Women, which closed
its sessions this week, is still in
Washington, engaged insight-see
ing and social enjoyment. She
never tires of talking of her father,
who she firmly believes was one of
the country’s greatest men. She
is also quite a humorist, as this
little dig at Mark Twain’s egotism,
uttered in the course of a eulogy
on her father, will show-: “Every-
one who met my father felt acer- 1
tain awe of him. You remem
ber, even Mark Twain said that
Brigham Young made him feel
small.”
Senator Depew entertained a
few poor devils at dinner a few
days ago whose financial status
caused the facetious to speak of
the affair as “Depew’s pauper
dinner.” His guests included Mr.
J. Pierpont Morgan, who is cred
ited with having made S42,CXX>,-
(XX) within a year, not to mention
the few additional pennies he
picked up through this week’s Su
preme Court decision against the
state of Minnesota in the railroad
merger case; Mr. William Rocka
feller, who doesn’t get quite as
much of the Standard Oil drip
pings as John D., but still gets
quite fairly lubricated. Judge
Henry J. Howlard, whose legal
finger-marks can usually be found
on the edge of the biggest finan
cial pies; Mr. A. J. Cassatt, presi
dent of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Cos. and practical boss of several
others; Mr. Marwin Hewett, a
member of the well-known New
York family which has added
largely to the fortune of Peter
Cooper, which it inherited; Sena
tor Hanna, who never has to stay
out of the financial game for lack
of the ante: Wayne MacVeagh,
son-in-law of the late Simon Cam
eron, and manipulator of high
priced law; C. A. Griscom, who
has a few millions in steamships;
Secretary Root, and four or five
others who have crossed the five
million mark and are beginning
to lie recognized in the financial
world as being worthy of an occa
sional invitation to dinner.
Canning FaGury to Operate Attain.
Mr. George W. Lowclen has writ
ten to parties here that he will
operate the canning factory here
again next summer, and on a larger
scale than heretofore. He will
not only can peaches but tomatoes
and possibly other vegetables as
well. He is particularly anxious
to have tomatoes to can and there
fore the people around Barnes
ville may grow them profitably in
large quantities. If we understand
it correctly, Mr. Lowden expects
to make tomatoes a specialty. He
is an experienced canner and will
be in position doubtless, to pay
the highest market price.
Such an enterprise is certain to
lie worth much to the city and
community. It furnishes a market
for such a produce and profitable
employment for quite a number
of people, at a season too, when
there is not much else doing.
We would be glad to see local
porties establish and operate a
large cannery in Barnesville.
HAYING A RUN ON CHAMBER
