HORRIBLE SUFFERING

From a Skin Disease, which is Cured by the Cuticura Remedies. For two years my wife has en-lured the most liorrible suffering from a skin dLsea.se, so much o that I thought she would never Ret well. It started with neuralgia, which she had never had before, and after a week's sickness a humor broke out over her-right eye, in the edge of her hair. The Doctor (Dr ) called it a little eruption, aused by heat or some other cause, and gave her iodine to paint it with, but the eruption continued; to grow, so that she was obliged to discharge the doctor after paying him ten dollars, and get another physician. The second (Dr. ) pronenneed the disease Eczema, and I paid him rwtnty-five dollars without benefit. 1 tried a third (Dr. ). he said, "O, yes; I can cure her; it is only Eczema, that is easily cured," but he was no better than the rest; sol tried a fourth (Dr. ), but to no purpose. At last we came to Tn-'dad. Colorado, to a couple of honaa'opath.e doctors (Dr. and Dr. -, and doctored with them for three months, three visits a week, but my wife grew worse, and finally got so low she could not raise herself in bed. The eruption extended down into tier nose and throat until she could neither breathe through her nose nor swallow anything, and every nürht she could scarcely live from the pain and neuralgia in her head and chest. Seeing that something must be done soon, I went to the doctor and asked him if he could do anything more, for my wife could not live long, it was plain, in this condition. "No," he said, "I am doing all I can or anybody can do for her." I turned away in tears, thinking there was no hope for my wife, and in two or three days a bill for sixty dollars ($60) was presented. Thus I went on. until ten doctors were emploved at a cost of overSWD. my wife no better, but getting constantly worse. Thus closed two years of tne most awful sickness any one could live through or think of. About this time, when in despair, I met a lady whose child had been afflicted for three vears as my wife had been, and who had been entirely cured by the Ccticura Remedies. She presented my wita with a bottle partly full of Cüiicvka KE.SOLVEJST, and a box partly full of CniCTRA. and the result was a success. I tried another bottle of the cutkxra Resolvent, and a Jx)x of Cuticura, and a cake of Cuticura Soap, and in two weeks the eruption ceased to spread, and even with the end oi the ninth bottle of Resolvent, two boxes of Cuticura and one cake of Cuticura Soap, at an expense of f 10.25. My wife is entirely well, and life begins to look as it used to before this sickness. I thank God, after spending all I had. I can give you the praise for saving my wife for so tri a ing a sum. If it gives you the same great pleasure to read this letter as it does me to write it, I trust that you will publish it, that all who suffer from skin and blood diseases may be cured by the Cuticura .Remedies.

It affords me pleasure to give you this report of the cure of our little grandchild by your Cuticura Remedies. When six months old his left hand began to swell and bad every appearance of a large boil. We poulticed it. but all to no purpose. About five months after it became'a running sore. ikOQ other sores formed. Ue then had two of them on each hand, ana as his blood became more and more impure it took less time for them to break out. A sore came on the chin beneath the under lip, which was very offensive. His head ' was one solid scab, discharging a great deal. This was his condition at twenty-two months old, when I undertook the care of him, his mother having died when he was a little more than a year old of consumption (scrofula, of course). lie could walk a little, but could not get up if he fell down, and could not move when in bed, having no tn-e of his hands. I immediately commenced with the Cuticura Rem edles .using the soap and ointment freely, and when he had taken one bottle of the Cuticura Resolvent bis head wss completely cured, and he was improved in every way. We were verv much encouraged, and continued the use of the Kemidies for a year and a half. One fiore after another healed, a bony matter forming in each one of these five deep ones just before healing, which would finally erow loose and were taken out; then they would heal rapidly. One of these ugly bone formations I preaerved. After taking a dozen and a Laif bottles he was completely cured, and is now, at th age of six years, a strong and healthy child. The scars on his hauds must always remain : his hands are strong, though ue once feared he would never be able to use them. All that physicians did for him did no good. All who taw the child before using the Cuticura Jemepif and see the child now consider it a wonderful cure. If the above facts are of any use to you, jou are at liberty to use them. MRS. E. H.

To the Cuticura Remedies I Owe My Health, My Happiness and My Life. A day never passes that I do not think and speak kindly or the Cuticura Remedies, seven years ago, all of a dozen lumps formed on my neck, ranging in size from a cherry stone to an orange. The large ones were frightful to look at, and painful to bear; people turned aside when they saw me. in disgust, and I was asnamed to be ou the etreetorin society. Physicians and their treatment, and all medicines failed to do any good. Inalmoment of despair 1 tried the Ccticura Kemklhem; the small lumps (as I call them) gradually disappeared, and the large ones broke, in about two weeks discharging large quantities of matter, leaving two slight bears in my neck tolay to tell the story of my suffering. My 'weight then was hundred and fifteen aickly pounds; my weight now is one hundred and sixty-one healthy pounds, aid my height is only five feet, five inches.

OLD WORLD GLEANINGS

A War of Retaliation by Franco Against Germany Highly Probable. Proceedings of the Kassian Diet Members of the British Cabinet Not Opposed to Mr. Gladstone's Irish Impropriation Scheme, Kerum, March 20. On Friday night after the police had scattered the social democrat gather ing in the Andreas Platz, whicn Bedel had harangued, a mob assembled, which the police experienced much difficulty in dispersing. Seven oi the participants in the affair were arrested. All the semi-official organizations continue to dist uss the prospect of a war of retaliation by Frsnoe against Germany. They attribute the probability of such action by France to Orleanist schemes. The Post declares that Germany will await the coming of the war, proudly, resolute and ready. All hope is abandoned that a reconciliation between France and Germany can be effected by reasonable means. The Germans can not be restrained for au hour when the war cloud bursts. The National Zeitung, while admitting the great progress made by the French army in recent years, says that Germany has nothing to fear while France is isolated from the other Nations. Frenchmen, it claims, can not pardon the Germans lor tueir victories over tueui on the battle-field and their successful competition against French merchants in foreign markets. The introduction of the Espoinage bill in the French Chamber of Deputies has greatly embittered the feeling in Germany against France. . After the rejection by the Reichstag of the bill prolonging the anU Socialist laws Herr Waidthorst, the leader of the clericals, declares on behalf of that party that their adverse vote in committee does not imply a pledge as to their attitude on the measure when it comes before the full House. It is considered certain that the House of the Prr.sj.ian Diet will psss the Ecclesiastical bill, and that if it be thought necessary Prussia will increase the concessions made to the Vaticau. Emperor William is well. Invitations have been issued for a grand party on Monday, the anniversary of the Emperor's birth, and a theatrical performance will be given on that day at the eisser !aal. Prince Bismarck will give a grand bano.net to the Ambassadors of Germauy and other high officials in honor of the occasion. The Grand Duke of Hesse, during his stay In Berlin, will introduce his only son to Emperor William and Emperor Augusta, a fact which indicates that the former friendship existing between Darmstadt and Berlin has been restored. It is hoped that the Emperor will bestow upon the young prince some high distinction. The Government has become reconciled to the rejection of the spirit monopoly bill, and is drafting a bill raising the tax on spirits. An article in the Deutsche Rundschau by Pchoenbach, on American novelists, testifies to the Interest Germans take in foreign fiction. During the year lxx the number ot Germans who emigrated to the United States was 84.xf0: to Canada. 6V3: to Brazil, 1,000; to the Argentine Republic, 736; to Chili, 62; to Africa, 21. GLADSTONE'S CABINET. They Are Not Opposed to Ilia Irish Expropriation Scheme. London. March 20. The Pall Mall Gazette states tnat it is authorized to deny that Mr. John Morly, Chief Secretary for Ireland; Mr. George Osborne Morgan, Under Colonial Secretary, or Mr. Henry Broadhurst, Under Secretary for the Home Department, are opposed, as has been reported, to Mr. Gladstone's Irish expropriation scheme. The authority for the statement was a Cabinet Minister. He adheres to his statement despite denials put out in a semi-official way in behalf of the gentlemen said to be defected. The interview between John Bright and Mr. Gladstone to-day lasted two hours. When Mr Bright departed, Mr. John Morley, Chief Socretary for Ireland, had a conference with Mr. Gladstone, and the Premier and his Irish Secretary were in council together for a full hour and a half. The Monarch Line steamer, Persian Monarch, Captain Watson, which left here March 17, for New York by the way of Havre, went ashore near Torquay, Devonshire, in a den.- fog. this evening. Tugs succeeded in floating her and she is proceeding to Plymouth, where she will be overhauled. Mrs. Adelaide Bartlett and Rev. Mr. Dyson, Wesleyan minister, were committed to-day for trial at the Central Criminal Court on the charge of having cr.used the death of Edward T. Brtrtlett, the woman's husband, on New Year's evening. The allegation is that by the advice of the clergyman, to whom several yeirs ago Birtlelt had surrendered his wife, she killed him with chloroform furnished by the pastor while she was resisting an attempt on the part of her husband to regain the place he had given the preacher. Madame Christine Nilsson has signed a contract with Maurice Strakosch for a farewell tour in America. The tour will begin with a performance on October 11. Madame Nilsson will Bail from Paris early in September. lhe Daily Telegranh this morning says that Mr. Gladstone proposes that a Lieutenant General or Governor Le appointed to represent England at the Dublin Parliament, such otlieer to be vested with certain powers of veto. The News bays that if Mr. Gladstone's scheme tails, the coercion act mu.-t again be enforced. Boxes have been engaged for the Queen to wit"lausf and the performances of Mrs. Langtry and MiDnie Palmer at the Lyceum and "On 'Chanire" at the Opera t'omique. Jt is stated that she has promised to visit the Zoo to see the elephant Alice, before the latter departure for America. At a convention of Liberals at Belfast, last evening, resolutions were adopted promising general support to Mr. Gladstone, but urging Iii m to abandon the idea of home rule, aud advocating the abolition of the Lord Lieuteuantcy and the appointment of a Secretary for Ireland. LITTLE FOLK'S SAYINGS. A minister, having taught b.13 little girl the Lord'a Prayer, was surprised to hear her repeat it with the following variation: "Give us this day our daily bread, or biscuit and honey, if you please." A little girl heard some one remark that her mamma and auntie wre the pillars of their church, when the small woman gravely said, "If mamma and auntie are the pillows, papa and uncle must be the bolsters." Yout'hs Companion. The affectionate mamma of Jamie IL, aeed five, deemed it prudent to give him a dose ot castor-oil, and took him to a drug store, iq company with his little sister, to have it mixed with soda water. Jamie took the glass of suspected beverage in his hands, looked at it a moment, pursed up' his little lips to the edge, tilted it till the floating oil rose above his upper lip, and cooly drained all the sweet water. Having got all he could without swallowing the oil, he set down the J less and said : "It's sister's turn now." Jushforth (Mont.) Checkrein. There was a Sunday-school teacher, and her class was composed of a goo ily number of average small boys. The other Sunday the lesson was upon the Babylonian captivity, and the teacher had done her best in Ereparing the lesson so as to attract and old their attention. This is not always an easy matter in some of the Old Testament historical lessons, and so the teacher's enerf ies were .directed toward making the story ifelike and realistic to her young pupils, 'Now just suppose, boys," she began, "that pome great arm was to come here and take fathers and mothers and yourselves prisoner?, and carry you off to a strange land and make you work as slaves, and try to make you believe in their religion instead of your own," etc. As her vivid imagination entered upon the picture she was pleased to notice that the boys looked interested, but her satisfaction quickly ended as some patriotic urchin, amid the smiles of his comrades, exclaimed: "Yessum, 'twould be kinder rough, but there ain't a nation on the earth that's big enuf to do it" Boston Traveler.

NEW AMERICAN CARDINAL. ELZEAR A. TASCHEEKAC, ARCHBISHOP Of QUEBEC, ELEVATED TO THE CAEDIJf ALATK. Monseigneur Taschcreau, who has just been elevated to the rank and dignity of a Frince of the Church of Home, by Tope Leo XIII, belongs to one of the oldest and most distinguished French families in Canada. Many of the Taschereaus have been Judges in the highest courts of the land, while others have made conspicuous names for themselves in medicine, science, arms and theology. Originally the family came fromTouraine, when Thomas Jacques Taschereau, the founder of the "Canadian branch, landed In Quebec in the early part of the seventeenth century. He soon took an influential position in the community, and it was not long before he was appointed Marine Treasurer, and in 173G a grant was given him of a rich Beigniory on the banks of the river Chandiere. The present Archbishop, now Cardinal Taschereau, is a grandson of this gentleman, and he inherits much of his ancestor's administrative and eicecutive capacity. He was born at Ste Marie de la Beauce, Quebec, on the 17th of February, 1820. He was a most precocious child, and was so far advanced in his studies that at eight years of age his parents entered him as a pupil at the Quebec Seminary, one of the most prominent Catholic educational institutions in the Dominion. Here he displayed great assiduity, and but a short time passed before he attracted the attention of his professors, who, finding him most apt and diligent, embraced every opportunity which offered . to push on to the higher classes. At the age of seventeen he was far enough advanced to undertake a journey to Home in company with llev. Abbe Holmes, of the Quebec Seminary, and one year later he received the tonseur at the hands of Monseigneur Piatti, Archbishop of Trebironde, in the Basilica of St. John Lateran. In the same year, 1837, he returned to Quelec, where he resumed his theological studies, and six years afterward, while still under canonical age, he was ordained priest. The ceremony was performed on the 10th of September, 1842, at the Church of Ste Marie de la Beauce, his native parish, by Monseigneur Turgeon, afterward the successor of Archbisnop Signai. The young priest was, very soon after his ordination, appointed to the Chair of Moral 1'hilosophy in the seminary, which position he filled "with perfect acceptance for upwards of twelve years. He was a bold and fearless teacher, exceedingly liberal in his views, and the Ultramontane element in his' church ever found in him an uncompromising and implacable obstacle. As an evidence of his courage, an incident in his career is related which reveals at once the magnificent self-sacrifice of the man, and his possession of extraordinary courage. In 1847 a terrible fever broke out at Grosse Isle, the Quarantine station in the Iliver 1st. Lawrence, some thirty miles below Quebec city. It raged with great virulence, and hundreds of emigrants and sailors died like sheep. Many of the sufferers were Irish Catholics, who. to escape famine and poverty in their own country, had sought homes in the Canadian colony. The island soon became a veritable pest house, and every day helped to swell the dreadful death list. When the disease was at its height Father Taschereau heard the call of dutv, and without a moment's hesitation, he volunteered his services to assist Father MeGavran, the Grosse Isle chaplain, in his ministrations to the sick and the dying. He immediately proceeded to the scene of his labors, where he worked untiringly until attacked himself by the pestilence, when he sank exhausted on a couch, from which his friends feared he would never rise again. In 1354 he was sent to Home by the Second Provincial Council of Quebec, to present its decrees for the sanction ot Pope Pius IX. He spent two years at the Capital, the greater part of which was devoted to the study of the Canon Law. In July, 1S5, the degree of Doctor of Canon Law was conferred on him by the Roman Seminary. Soon after this he returned to Quebec, and was appointed Director of the Little Seminary, which post he tilled with very gratifying results until the year 18ÖD, when he was chosen Director of the Grande Seminaire, and appointed a member of the Lower Canada Council of Iublic Instruction. Iu the following year he became Superior of the Seminary and Eectorof Laval University, the chief P.oman Catholic hall of learning in the Dominion, and the holder of a charter signed by the Queen. In 18G2, Dr. Taschereau accompanied Archbishop Baillargeon on a visit to Home, and upon his return, towards the latter part of the year, he was appointed Vicar General of the Archdiocese ofQuebec. Two years later be again went to Rome, this time on business connected with the University. In l&GG, his term of office as Sujerior having expired, he was made Director of the Great Seminary, and three years later he was re-elected Superior. He attended the great (Ecumenical Council at Rome, with Archbishop Baillargeon, and on his return to Quebec he resumed his duties at the University. In October, 1S70, the Archbishop died, and Dr. Taschereau and Grand Vicar Cazeau were called on to administer conjointly the affairs of the diocese. On the 13th of February, 1871, news reached Quebec from Rome that Dr. Taschereau had been appointed Archbishop, and on the 19th of March the ceremony of consecration was performed by Archbishop Lynch, of Toronto, in the presence of a brilliant throng of ecclesiastics and a multitude of worshipers. Since then His Grace has made several pilgrimages to Rome on business of importance, and only last year he visited the Kternal City on a mission in connection with the affairs of Laval University. His career as Archbishop has been marked by dignity of conduct, remarkable powers of administration, and a tact which is at c-' -e admirable and judicious. He has all the qualities of a successful prelate, and it is with confidence that his friends regard his elevation to the Cardinalate, there being no doubt that he will fill the position with dignity and zeal. Iiis health is good, his frame ia strong, and his sixty-six years of age sit lightly on his shoulders, and give promise of a long continuance of activity and usefulness. No Clew. Chicago, March 19. Six days since the horrible murder and robbery was committed on the Kock Island Railway, and yet apparently not even a clew to the perpetrators of the crime baa been found. The ende VOrS of the detectives seem to be centered in the captor of Mike Hamphreyi

and a man known as 'Texas." Lait night it was found that Humphreys had been working in tbe Grape Creek mines for five weeks tteadily, and was there the night of the robbery. "Texas," for whom the detectives were reported to be scouring the country, turned up at the Daily News oiüce this morning. He denied having anything to do with the robbery. The night of the robbery he said he was visiting friends on Twenty-second street until 10 o'clock. After that he went to his home on Nineteeath street and remained until Monday. THE MISSISSIPPI TRAGEDY.

Particulars of the Circumstance Leading to Killing' of the Negroes. New Orleans, March 18. A special from Winona. Miss., gives the following particulars of the circumstances leading to the tragedy enacted at Carrollton 'yesterday: Some months ag? Herbert Moores, a young man, went to Carrollton. There he met Ed Brown, a negro, with whom he had an altercation, and the negro smeared and poured on him molasses, which he carried in a jug. J. M.Liddell, Jr, of Greenwood, a friend of Moores, happened to meet with Brown, nd made some allusio&s to his treatment. Brown gave him impudence and Liddell started at him, but was prevented by bystanders from attacking him. The negro then armed himself and induced others to do likewise. They stationed themselves on the street, some concealing themselves behind trees. When Liddell came after supper from the hotel he saw them and asked what he meant, whereupon Ed Brown responded it was none of his d d busiaess. At that Liddell struck at Brown with his fist, and Brown and his brother Charles both simultaneously fired upon Liddell. one ball striking on the elbow of his right arm. About this time some fifteen to twenty shots were fired from different quarters. Liddetl pulled his pistol and hit Ed Brown in the abdomen, and received one shot in the fleshy part of his leg. Charles Brown was shot in the shoulder. The parties who had taken part in the affray were brought before the Mayor forthwith, waived examination and were bailed to appear before the next Circuit Court. Threats were continually made by the Brown brothers that they would have Jim Liddell's blood. Further, they had five double-barreled guns loaded seven fingers deep, and would "kill the first man who put his foot on their ground." On the 12th inst they made affidavit against James Liddell and others, including some of the best citizens of the place, and men who knew nothing of the difficulty, charging them with assault and intent to murder in the previous difficulty. Previous to the opening of the trial yesterday Brown boasted on the street that he had his body guard and would shoot the first man that made a motion in his direction. The case was called at noon, f, hen the Court-house was immediately filled with negroes, who stationed themselves around and about the Brown brothers. The attorneys were proceeding with the case, when there suddenly appeared about a hundred white men, all well armed. PerceiviDg their entrance, Ed Brown drew his pistol and fired in the direction of Liddell, who was between his attorneys, and thereupon the firing became general. Ten negroes were instantly killed and two others have since died. Some escaped by jumping through the windows, a distance of at least twenty feet from the ground. On most of the dead bodies arms were found. The room was completely filled with smoke. The judge's bench is on the north tide of tbe room, and the benches facing it are toward the south. It is a very laree court room, with windows all around. On the south wall were counted 133 shot holes; in the wall of the passage leading down btairs, ten shot holes; and in the benches, thirty shot holes. .One shot struck the northeast window sash and glanced into the wall. Five other shots show on the north wall from the direction of the benches. Large pools of blood were on the floor of tbe court-room. The mob then left a quickly and quietly as they came in. The general impression isthat this will end in further trouble, as heretofore a few of the negroes killed were constantly creating bad feeling, and led other negroes, peaceably inclined, to produce strife between the whites and blacks. The good people of Carrollton deprecate all this and regret that a few innocent people were drawn into the fuss. Following is a list of the killed: Andrew Robertson, Charles Brown. Ed Brown, Joe Land, John Money, Simon Keys, Jim Harris, Amos Matthews, Scott Moore, French Hughes, Coley Little, Jim Johnson. The following is a list of the wounded: Will Dodd, Jim Keys, Christian Preadner, Jim Hows, Jake Kane, seriously; Bill Ewing, Charles Price, Henry Cile, Coley Thompson badly, and reported dead. Payton Hemingway and Walter McCloud juwped through" a window, carrying the sash along with them. The former received a slight s-hot wound in the hand but was otherwise uninjured. Amos Matthews was skot dead while trying to make his escape in the same way. One colored man threw himself out of one of the west windows, falling on the brick pavement outside, but got up and made his escape unhurt. Ashe was getting out, three shots were fired at him, two of which struck the window sill, and one went through the glass. All is quiet now. It is impossible to get any one to state the names of any person in the mob, and it will be very difficult to ascertain them, as nobody in the excitement took notice of any of those who entered the house. JSo arrests have vet been made. "In Our Father's House to Stay." Charleston News and Courier. The recent visit of the Boston Lancers was a very pleasant way of bridging the bloody chasm, and we are gratified that the efforts of the citizens of Charleston to entertain and amuse the soldiers from the Hub were received in the spirit in which they were extended. In a letter to the News and Courier a prominent politician in Boston writes as follows: "Allow me as an independent Republican or 'Mugwump' to thank yOU lor the generous and noble sentiments expressed by you in tbe enclosed slip, which 1 cut from tbe Boston Herald. "It is in accordance with the manly speech recently made in the United States House of Representatives by Mr. Wise, of Virginia, in reply to Boutelle, of Maine, when, in response to a speech which in spirit and expression was both narrow-minded and cowardly, he said 'we have come back to our father's house to stay' a fitting rebule to a contemptible harangue and 1 have heard many hearty expressions Of approval of his opportune reply. 'It Joes seem to me, as a former member of the Republican party, that, having sustained the unity of the great Republic, it should consummate its mission by being tbe agent of a tine and lasting reconciliation between the two sections who have had their differences. "When the wandering brothers resume their seats around the family table with a feeling that they have a right to be there, It is mean in the older brothers, who, by superior strength, were successful in their quarrels, to " be continually reminding the others of the cause of them. I believe the people, Nortk and South, entertain a more sincere and hearty respect and admiration for each other than the politicians are willing to admit. Let us all, putting the past aside, Tjuil together in the future, and feel, with the good old saying of old, 'Thy people shall be my people, and thy God shall be my God.'" A boy hearing the story of the creation in Sabbath achool, listened with breathless interest 'while the teacher was saying: "Once upon a time there was no world here; no land n )r water; nothing to be seen any where. Then the Lord" Here the boy interrupted her with a tough question: "Please mum, what was there here when there wasn't anything here?"

THE OREGON. Jude Uroumosd'i Graphic Account ot tbe Disaster.

Inter Ocean, March IS. Judge Drummond, who was a passenger on the ill-fated Oregon, arrived in the city last night. He went to the residence of his daughter, Mrs. Farwell, in the Charlevoix, where he will remain for a day or two. The gentleman was looking well, and there was a feeling of lively contentment visible in his face as he sat beside his daughter and talked of the narrow escape of the passengers aud crew of the Oregon from death. " You know." said the Judge, "I only went over on a matter of business. We left Liverpool for home March G, and had enjoyed very pleasant weather, considering the time of the year. March 14 the accident occurred. I had been awakened early in the morning of that day, how I can not tell. I lay awake for a considerable time, listening to THE ONLY BOPSDS AUDIBLE, the measured throb of the massive engines, and the low SDlasli of waves, as the 'ship threw aside the waters. Suddenly there was a crash, accompanied by tbe crunching of wood, then a sound as if some heavy substance bad fallen a great distance. The noise lasted only an instant; following it there was a silence, and then, above me, I heard the rush of feet, the surge of the waters, and the voices of officers in command shouting orders to the seamen. The crash occurred but a few feet away from me, a little forward of amidships. I jumped up, and after hastily dressing went on deck. The greatest confusion prevailed; passengers and seamen were alike excited, although the officers did their utmost to quiet and allay their fears. Looking around I tried to find the cause of the crash; it was dark, about 4:20 o'clock, and I could see no craft on the waters. l'o our right the lights on Fire Island shone clear, only seven miles distant; on the left lay Long Island Sound, stretched awey amid tbe darkness. The Oregon was still steaming ahead, and the Captain ORDERED ALL THE PASSENGERS on deck. The liope delusive, it shortly appeared that the ship could not sink because she was water-tight, bouyed us up for a time, but the Oregon took a list, aud some among us knew she was doomed. Pilot boat Xo. 11 hove in sight, but remained at a respectable distance. The captain ordered that the women and children be put on board first. By this time the water had reached and extinguished the fires of the steamship, and the firemen had come on deck. As the first boat was about to leave a number of the firemen jumped forward and tried to press their way into the departing boat. One of the officers barred the way and a scuffle followed. The mutineers seemed determined to get on board, but were beaten back by the use of axes.: After all the women and children had been put on the pilot boat tbe schooner Fannie A. Gorman, of Belfast, Me., hove in sight, and we prepared to board her. By the mismanagement of that ship many hours were lost in transferring the passengers; she lay about a mile distant from us, and it took some of the boats two hours to get to her. The saving of minutes means in such cases. THE 8 AYING OF LIVES, and affairs looked desperate for us at one time. Of course everything was done to effect a stoppage of the leak. A couple of steamers passed us, but they did not come to our assistance; it is fair to presume they did not understand us. By 12 o'clock we were all on board of the schocner. By that hour it was plain to see the Oregon must sink ; even before I left for the schooner the water swept the main deck. Forty minutes later she went down. The stem rose high in the air; she was poised a minute, then gradually and gracefully she disappeared. It was a dreadful catastrophe, but her end was worthy of her beauty and grace. The opinion of all was that a finer ship than the Oregon never crossed the ocerrh. After she went down, and we thought had been lost sight of forever, her topmasts re-appeared. Shortly after she sunk the steamer Fuldy hove in fiipht. and w wpr transferred nnictlv and safely to her. I can not speak too highly of J tbe treatment we received while on board ship. I lost everything I had, except some yapers which I took occasion. to remove from my trunk.". "In regard to the question of WHO WAS TO BLAME, it was said, by the men on watch that the schooner did "not show any lights until she was almost upon tbe Oregon. However that may be, several of the passengers, who happened to be on deck, said they saw the schooner's lights Ion? before the collision. lhe steamer was Romg at the rate of eighteen knot3 an hour, the wind was blowing slightly from the southwest, and there was little sea on. It appears to me that the steamer tried to cross the bows of the schooner, and the distance was miscalculated. The only thing to offer in palliation of the dreadful error is, that just before the vessels met the schooner changed her course. It was a wonder we all escaped. Our safety was due to the time at which the collision occurred, the character of the day, the arrival of the pilot and schooner, and the length of time the Oregon floated. It is a matter of wonder, though, that she sank at all, being provided with air-tight compartments. I am enjoying good health and suffer bnt little from a bruise I received on the right leg. I am glad to be back again, and it is likely I'll remain at home."

Blaine on Tliurmnn. I Blaine's History. His rank in the Senate was established from the day he took his seat, and was never lowered during the period of his service. He was an admiraoly disciplined debater; wa fair in his method of statement, logical in his argument, honest in his conclusions. He had no tricks in discussion, no catca phrases to secure attention, but was al ways direct and manly. His mind was not preoccupied and engrossed with political contest or with affairs of state. He had natural and cultivated tastes outside of :bose fields. He was a discriminating reader, and enjoyed not only serious books, but inclined also to the light indulgence of romance and poetry. lie was especially fond of the best French writers. lie loved Moliere and Racine, and could quote with rare enjoyment the humorous scenes depicted by Balzac. He took pleasure in the diama and was devoted to music. In Washington he could usually be found in the best seat in the theater when a eood play was to be presented or an opera was to be given. These tastes illustrate the genial side of his nature, and were a fitting complement to the stronger and sterner elements of the man. His retirement from the Senate was a serious loss to his party a loss indeed to the body. He left behind him pleasant memories and carried with him the respect of all with whom he had been associated during his twelve years of honorable service.
