Death of Hon. Robt. Ranto,ll, Jr,

INTEL. .gence of the dcccase Of Mr.. Rantoul.
member of congress from the second district
in this state: -,
Hon. Robert Rantoul, Jr. died last evening.
He was in usual health up to Monday, the I'd
inst. and had been for some days previous to
that time engaged in laborious investigation
on the matters in dispute between Great Bri-
tain and The United States growing out of the
northern fisheries. At this time he had upon
his forehead what lie considered small bile
which did not attract attention or prevent his
being in the house ON Mondayand Tuesday.
On Wednesday, morning, at breakfast, consid.
erable infamation of an erysifelas chmacier
was noticed around the bile, and he was ac-
oordngly prevailed upon to remain in his room
and pgoaaEs medical adxiea,s During 1hs re-
maindef q Wednesday ard Thursday the dis
ease made no perceptihle progress On Thurs.
day dispatch was sent informing Mr. RAN
toul's family of his illness. On Friday morn
ing he conversed freely with me and appeared
much better, and expected in the course of a
day or two to resume his duties in the house.
On the evening of Friday he became much
worse, the erysipelas spreading over the whole
face, and his brain being also somewhat afiec.
ted On Saturday morning Mrs. Rantoul ar
rived. Mr.. Rantoul knew her perfectly, and
made inquiries of her, though his mind con-
tinualey wandered. On Saturday evening an
effusion took place one side of the body became
paralytic and much swollen. with inability to
speak. From this time he sunk rapidly, and
expired al half-past ten o'clock OIL Saturday

Mr.. Wise. Were You not III New

army TO march lRcn the South, and
put down slavery q
N; 4: 4: r. K: s:a;s S:::,. -; &.
lin PicrU0 feply to Ind say-aIf'
Hale should head an army to march
on the south, he had first to march
over his (Pierce's) dead body; for he
would head an army to oppose him2'
Mr. Mas | did.
The court house rang with shouts
of applause, repeated again and
again. Mr. Wise then requested his
opponent to state the facts again,
which he did to an almost hreathless
auditory. "General Pierce did say
(slapping his hand upon his breast)
that Hale would have to pass over
his dead body before he marched ups
on the south.'
Apretty figure these southern Scott
wings cutin charging General Pierce
with abolitionism. No wonder such

From the Indiana Madisonia
The Issue Fairly Made.

General Pierce was in the Senate in le4l ,du-
ring the celebrated extra session, and on recur-
ring to the journals we find the following facts;
On the 25th July, IS4l, the bankrupt bill
passed the Senate--aycs 26, nays 90. General
Pierces name in the negative.
Three days after the United States Bank bill
was passed by the same vote, General Pierce
voting againstit.
On the 2Gh Of August the distribution bill
was passed-ayes 2s, nays 90. General Pierce
voting in the negative.
Thus it will be seen that General Pierce vo.
ted against the bankrupt bil--aganst the in
corporation Of the United Statos Bank--and
against the distribution of the proceeds Of the
public lands.
What is General Scott's position on these
questions? In his great platform letter hl
says:
"If had had the honor to vote on the occa.
sion. 1T WOULD HAVE BEEN IN pAyoR Of the land
distribution bill. the bankrupt bill, and thu
second bill for creating fiscal corporation"
There is the record, clear and undisputcd
and there is the issue fairly made and present
ed General Pierce stands committed and vo.
ted against the bankrupt bilIapd the bank bill;
General Scott says hewoud have voted for all
Of them. and stands committed in their favor.
Again, we say to the people, "Choose ye be-
tween them"

rador fishery, the most iN0MZit part of the
whole, and that of which 1t was at Client pei
culiarly the intention of the British Govern
ment at all events to deprive us. This fishery
cannot be prosecuted without the use Of the
neighboring shores for drying and curing the
fish. 1t is chiefly carried on in boats close to
the shores, and the loss of it, even il the rest
had been left unaffected by the same principle,
would have been loss of more than half of
the whole interest The convention has also
secured to us the right Of drying and curing
fish on part of the island Of Newfoundland
which had not been enjoyed under the treaty
of 1883. 1t has narrowed down the pre'ensions
Of exclusive territorial jurisdiction, with re-
ference TO those fisheries, to three marine miles
from the shores. Upon the whole, consider our
interest is secured by the convention of 1918
in a manner as advantageous as it had been
by the convention ofl7S3. Wehave gained by
it, even of fishing liberties, as much as We
have lost; but if not, we have gained practical
ly the benefit ofliberties in the fisheries recog-
nizee by the treaty Of 1883 were not abrogatcd
by the war of 1912.
