ne Death of Commander Irvine Shuhriek.

The Delaware Republican has the fol-
lowing notice of this officer, who died sud
denly, on Thursday last.
Commander S. was a native of South
Carolina and had been thirty-fve years in
the navy. During the war with England
he served under Commodore Decatur, and
was with him in the very severe action of
the President with the British squadron.
He again served with Decatur in the Guer-
riere Frigate, and was in the action with
the Algerine Squadron in 1916.
In 1892, while First Lieutenant of the
Potomac Frigaie bearing the Flag of Com
modore Downes, he commanded the Ex-
pedition of Sailors and Marines who Ian
ded on the Island of Sumatra, and after a
sharp conflict with the Malays, having
stormed and taken three forts, took pos
session of the town of Qualla Batoo, and
broke up a horde of pirates, who had re-
Gently murdered the crew and captain OF
an American ship.
In 1916, Commander S. returned from
a cruise in the Gulf of Mexico and on the
coast of Brazil, with his health much shat
tered.
As as officer he was brave and capable
l-as man he was upright, honorable and
exemplary In all the relations of life. A
firm faith in Christ, his Redeemer, gave
the crowning grace to his character.

NAUF00. ILLINOIS.

Nauvoo, Illinois, is becoming an object
of attention again in the West. The
Missouri Republican contains letter from
Nauvoo, which says:
One week since, there was an arrival at
Nauvoo, of three hundred citizens of
France, who are seeking th.t repose in the
quiet of our own well regulated govern
ment which they could not enjoy amid the
stormy and proscriptive spirit which has
so long agitated their own country. This
band of emigrants, struck with the pictu-
rescue beauty Of the place, and impressed
with the fertility of the surrounding coun-
try and the healthfulness of the locality,
have come TO the conclusion that no place
can be better adapted to their wants than
Nauvoo. This company of ernigrants is
headed by the distinguished CADET, who is
determined to make this pl.c.ce rueieus
for emigration. Il Is said that seven hun
dred' VINO hssiong 10 the same association.
are expected to meet their friends here in
a snort time, and that thirty thousand,
who are still in France, and who are said
to belong to the same brotherly fraternity,
will emigrate and settle with their brethren
who are already in the United States, un-
der the flattering expectations that Nauvoo
will be made the nucleus of this emigra-
ton.
