CKiniNAL SPECL'LATION.
If n crime is defined as nn act
the doing of which is prohibited by
law stock speculation cannot be
I considered criminal but when the
word crime is used in its broader
sense to describe nn act which
offends against morality or the pub
lic welfure it certainly includes
that species of grmbling upon the
market whioh endangers the com-
munity as well ns Injures the par-
ticipants. A record of Wall
Street's doings fot' tue ast weok is
an indictment against our boasted
civilization. That such transac
tions are allowed 1? as much a re
ilection upon the intelligence of
the country ns it is upon the con-
science of the people. It is little
less than amsJiing that a few men
should be permitted to corner the
market for their own selfish purpo-
ses beat down the prire of one
stock and boom the price of an-
other stock demoralizing business
and ieonardizinc the interests of
a' I classes of society. It is re
ported that the slump in stocks
amounted to seven hundred mil-
lions in value and that the New
York banks had to put up nearly
twenty millions of dollars to pre'
vent a panic. How will the his
torian describe nn nge in which p
petty thief is severely punished
while great criminals go unwhip

REMINISCENCE OF CIVIL WAR.

Col. T. J. Johnson who has re
eently come here from Princeton
Ky. nnd embarked in the under
taking business is nn old ex-Con-
dernteoldierand served througL
cut the war in the second Ken
tucky cavalry. The colonel says
that his command was ordered
ijnce in a while down into Georgia
and when they went there the boys
vould call it their summer excur-
n.on-
In the year 1SG8 they were down
nt Ri'secea Ga. a little below
Dalton and they retreated down to
Atlanta where Johnson was hold-
itg out against Sherman. About
this time Johnson was removed
and Hood put in his place.
About this time also Gen. Stone-
man (federal) started out for An-
dersonville with six or eight regi
ments for the purpose of releasing
the prisoners there which number
ed at least 30.000. In Stonetnan's
command was a

go down nnd help

Stoueman never dreamed of be
ing pursued until one morning
about daylight down near Macon
when four or five regiments ol
Confederates run in on them and
interrupted their slumber.
Col. Johuson says they killpd
andv captured Stoneman's entire
commnnd except the Keutucky
regiment nnd they took to the
woods. About 100 men were de
tailed from his regiment to pursue
them.
They overtook them at a small
