DEP1RTED.

The JcfTersonian. of Richmond, Indiana, thus
notices the demise of one of the most noted
characters of the country:
OBITUARY.
Died, at Philadelphia, on Thursday, June 8,
1913, Universal w. Party, Esq, aged about
l6 years.
The deceased was on visit to his friends in
that city, where he arrived in the enjoyment of
his usual health, (which has been feeble for
some years in consequence of constitutional
weakncss,) where he was attacked very acutely
with tie Available Fever, which terminated
his earthly existence ira few hours. 1t will be
source of consolation to his relatives and
friends TO learn that every thing was done that
skill or humanity could suggest by his atten-
ding physician Or Clay, to avert the fatal con
sequences, bui all III vain
death loves shining mark"
wv Party was bonat Hartford, Conn, and
attained his full physical development al inc
was a native of New England, and was of I'm
glsh, extraction. His mother, Miss -Anti-Ma-
SON sprung from Western New York, and was
nearly related to the lion. Frank Granger
The friends of young Mr. Party indulgcd the
most sangune hopes of q long life of fame and
honor for their young friend and no pains or
expense was spared in his early education The
Hon. DIR. II. Clay was early struck with his
precocious developments, and Immediately
upon learning his fathers residence, took him
into his own family and watched over his daw
niug powers with more than fathers fond so
lictude.
At six years of age, Mr. Clay admitted him
full partner in the American system estab-
lishmcnt which, although not as profitable as
was anticipated, yet it afforded him fine OPP
portunty for displaying his financial abilities,
and gave him a great deal of useful informa-
ton; since that time he has been too closely
identified with the historyof the country 10
need particular comment. His demise has
cast gloom over the circles of his numerous
friends and admirers who were about making
some little arrangements for extending his bus
mess operations too considerable degree.
We understand that his old tutor Mr.. Clay
is so deeply affected by the loss of his favorite
pupil, that he has retired from business and is
intending 10 take orders in the church.
The business of the old concord will be car
ried on by Taylor d co., who alone are author
sed to use the name of the late firm on settle.

noble blood Of France is really and truly
as muchin existence TO day as it was a
hundred years ago. Hence it is that the
brothers Montesquiou are commanding
the regard and watchfulness of the
French government. Were they poor
French republicans, we should hear moth
ing, probably, of any attempts to give
them the aid of the Government. AS
they arc noble, however, il is different
matter The people of France have
no reliance upon themselves, and the
government awaits the day when the
country again will be ruled by the scep-
tire, and foyrishing under the crown.
Hence the pains taken to preserve all
noble blood, and TO keep the cscutcheons
of the old families from the furnishing
blots of circumstances. The appearance
of the French Yice-C onsul at st. Louis
is an ample commentary on the state of
feeling towardf the French nobility in
France. She is "a republic in name, but

TRurH. WELL SAID,

Christianity has doctrines and dutie:
which relate particularly to our fellow
beings, which form its moral and socia
side; and it has doctrines and duties
which relate particularly to God, which
form its spiritual side, and comprehend
direci'r whatever relates to our personal
salvation. These together form its com
pleteness. 1t can no. be truly embraced
without embracing both. 1t is possible,
/ however, TO embrace its social and moral
side alone, and to exhibit herein great
beauty of character; like the young ruler
who propounded to our Savior the impor-
tant question Good Master, what good
thing shall do that may inherit eternal
life?" 1t is possible also to embrace its
spiritual side alone, as far as the profes
sion Of creed is concerned.
Now there are many men, who, owing
to the fortunate circumstances of their
education, are the stern believers in an or
thodox creed, while violating every beau
tiful charity of life. And these men claim
TO themselves great merit for their dog
matte faith, although it be a 'faith with
out works.
There are other men, who, owing, per-
haps, to the equally unfortunate circum-
stances Of their education, are building on
a false foundation their hopes of eternal
life, while distinguished FOR amiable tenn
pcrs, and a generous and efficient mora!i
ty in the ordinary walks of life.
1t would be an unwise preference
which should attach us in kinder bonds to
the former than to the latter. The one
has faith without virtue. The other has
virtue without faith. The one processes
to believe according 10 the most orthodox
standard, but brcathes no atmosphere of
holiness. The other believes at least in
social virtue, and is true to his belief
The last is the finer and noblcr character
Both are essentially deficient.
Christian Charity will estimate their
defects impartially; and will neither al
low herself to be imposed upon by the
proud assumption o! unproductive ortho-
doxy, nor to be led away from the Just
proportion and momentous value of the
spiritual side of religion, by those kindly
virtues which she prizes, but which, new
crthc'css, when they stand alone, show
that one thing still is wanting-[N. Y.

Evangelist.
PARENTS AND CnILDREN-It is said
that when the mother of Washington was
a. ked how she had formed the character
Of her son, she replied that she had early
endeavored TO teach him three things:
obedience, diljgencc and t,'uM. No bet
ter advice can be given by any parents.
Teach your children TO obey. Let it be
the first lesson. You cannot hardly be-
gin too soon. 1t requires const;nt care
to keep up the habit cf obedience, and
especially TO do it in such way as not to
break down the strength cf the child's
character. Teach your children to be
diligent. The habit Of being always en-
ploycd, is a great safeguard through
life, as well as essential to the culture Of
almost every virtue. Nothing can be
more foolish than an idea which parents
have, that it is not respectable to set
their children TO work Play is good
thing; innocent recreation is an employ
mcnt, and the child may learn early to
be useful AS to truth, it is the one es-
sental thing. Let everything else be
sacrificed rather than that. Without it,
what dependence can you place in your
child? And be sure to do nothing your
self which may countenance any species
of prcvarication or falsehoOd. Yet how
many parents do teach their children the
first lesson of deception.
THINK OF Ir!-Little things 90 a great
way to make life what il is. We ought
to study them more. If kind word
that costs nothing, will give pleasure, es-
pccially to those who have but little
pleasure, why is it not well to have n
kind word always ready to be given? If
an act Of friendship will make a sad heart
light for an hour, why not be ready when
it is so easy, to scatter pleasure in the
path of life? This is called "valc
Of tears" and so it is, for sin has blighted
| mowers anu planleu lnOrnS; Dut the Vaie
would be brighter. and there would be
fewer tears. if those who have it in their
power to make others happy, without
depriying themselves of single Joy,
would try to shed blessings about them
as they journey towards heaven.
a WORD TO THE LADIEs-Our readers
may remember the notice we gave of the
bread making machine of DR.. Lewis, ex.
hibited at the late Fair of the mechanics
Institute. Having been favored by the
Doctor with recipe, we (that is, wife
self, and couple of friends in family
council, } concluded to try the cxpcsiment
of bread making OH the new plan. The
first two attempts were failures, but the
third was crowned with triumphant sue
cess, and since then we have had brcac
not to be equalIed by the bakers-light
moist, sweet free from the mixture o.
sour and bitter usually found in fermen
ted bread Here is the recipe for a gooc
sized loaf, large enough to fill common
