IArscU FINALLY INsIItUTt,
Ellieou's Mills, md April 8, 1886.
DIED.,

On yesterday, Mrs. ANNE HERREN JESUP,
daughter Of the late Major WmLIAm CRooHAs, of
Kentucky, wife OF General THoMAsS. JIsUr, ofthe
United States army
The obituary notice which should do full Justice
TO the character Of the admirable woman who is Just
lost TO multitude Of friends and affecdonate rela-
tives-to devoted husband, and group Of almost
idolizing children-would only increase the grief
which IL sought TO console. Ii would impreas more
deeply the sense ofthe deprivation.
Those TO whom she was most dear must reflect
that the one they mourn has performed every Office
Of life most happily; every duty both religious and
domestic, and to society, has been fulfilled most
meekly, faithfully kindly and generously; and al
though she has sunk in the midst Of life and active
usefulness, her own probation was full. The I'M
tried future, to which she has been translated,
could only have been looked to by her as approach
ing Bliss but for the breaking of the tender ties
which attached her, she was unsppalled in her last
moments; she was perfectly resigned. Her unself-
ish nature was only affected by the thoughts Of the
grief which would follow her.
Mrs. Jesup was born in 1898, married the 18th OF
May, 1922, died April 2ith, 1886.
The friends Of the deceased are invited to attend
the funeral from the house of General Jesup, at 5
O'Clock tomorrow Saturday evening.

FROM inc Na'H'IIIe UHIVHi
GRIN cASS,S SPEECH. e.

Saturday nights mail brought us a full report Of
the main speech OF Gen Cass upon the Oregon
question Its great length, occupying fourteen col
umns of close print in the Washington Union, pre-
cludes il from our columns to-day, but we shsll lay
il before our readers at the earliest opportunity
When we saw it characterized by the opposition
press, and the champions oftOriy-nins, as mastery
effort, exhibiting talents Of the very first order, we
confess that our expectations Whatever they might
have been from the character Of the man) were
raised to the highest Pitch but we declare, in all
sincerity, that those expectations have been more
than realized by a perusal Of that mastery effort
Il is worthy Of the man. the occasion, and the coun-
Try. II is dignifed, patriotic, ssatesmsnlke, and
American throughout, and as we conceive, perfect
yindication Of himself Of his positions and of the
administration. Every point that has been made
in the whole discussion by those who differ with
him, is met and successfully answered; and we
venture the assertion that no man, whatever may be
his views upon the question, will arise from its pc
rusal without feelings of pride and admiration ofthe
man and the effort But our limits to-day will not
enable US fully to express the pleasure that its peru
sal afforded u.s. Ii must be read to be appreciated
and we are sure its length will not deter any one
from reading it.

believe il is Mr.. A. Stewart, Of Pennsylvania, who
suggested in his speech, that these goods might b,
appreciated very low for the sake of effect. Thi,
remark h. suggested to a correspondent the des
that those who exhibit the British goods and tn,
American manufactures should pledge themselve,
tofurnish to merchants who may visit Washington
to see the goods that are exhibited at the fair or il

sestion may be tested at the time Of the exhibi

CONGRESSIONAL sLAUGHTERING.

"Another great day in the Senate, and the late
Mr.. Allen has been laid out stiff and cold in DEATH
beside the remains Of Messrs Dickinson and Inger
SOIL There no telling where this political slaugh-
terlng will end, unless Messrs. Crittenden and Web
ster can be brought up and punished for inficling
such cruel punishments upon the victims Of their
wrath. There is security for life and limb in the
Senate if these political giants permitted to
dance such pas de deur among the smaller speci-
mems of humanity around them. This thunder
storm will leave the senatorial sky little calmer
than heretofore"
The correspondent of the New York Tribune,
in his letter from Washington of the 10Th instant,
gives the above specimen of the style usually EN-
poyed by the correspondents of wing papers wri-
ting from this city. All the speeches made by the
wings are, in their eyes, more eloquent than those
of Cicero more castle than those of Grattan, and
more overwhelming than those Of Burke. Their
geese are all swans Their friends are all diamonds
Of the first water. A democrat, on the other hand,
is always sure to fail; and not only to fail, but to
meet in his encounters with "the gants Of the OPP
position certain and speedy death There is no tell
ing how many democrats have been laid low since
December last, by the ponderous batt'e-axes Of the
wing Richards, and pinked by the keen Damascene
scmetars of the wing Saladins The Andrew Ferrara
of Mr.. Webster, the glittering napier of Mr.. Crit
tenden, the hair-trigger pistol Of Mr.. winthrop,
the Paixhan gun Of Mr.. Dixon, have each accom-
pshed "deeds Of dreadful note" and made daily and
numerous contributions to the congressional burial
ground, and aided, amazingly, the undertakers OF
this goody city. At the rate of this congressional
defamation on the democratic side, effected by
these giants" of the opposition, our imposing ma
iorities will dwindle into most feeble array, and
the numbers of widows and orphans be fearfully
increased. We agree then, with M "Richelieu," that
"there is no telling where this political slaughter
ing will end" and that "the giants" before named
ought not to dance any polkas, pirouettes, or
pas de deux over democratic senators and represent
atives, crushing thrm into nsign6cance, or pulver-
izing them into the gravej and we hope our city
fathers will nerpose their grave authority and ar
rest these melancholy additions to the bills OF NOR
tality in the legislature Of the nation. ....
