Death Of Theodore Parker.

The following, an extract from private
letter to Professor NEWMAN, dated Florence,
May IL, 1860, appears in the London papers:
IL have sad news to communicate. Our
dear suffering friend, Theodore Parker, died
yesterday evening. Yet there was never an
easier end to life but lately full of vigor.
| saw him about three hours before he died.
lying calmly, while life was ebbing away un.
consciously to himself He left written di>
rections for his funeral, limiting to five per-
SONS the attending him to the grave, Of whom
l am one. Many Americans here are ex-
pressing their wish to appear as mourners;
but it is thought right to abide by his in
structions. He desired the eleven first verses
of the Sermon on the Mount 1.-THE blessings
of jesus to be read over his grave; and then
plain grey stone, with his name and age
and nothing farther of inscription. Mr..
Cunningham, Boston Unitarian minister,
will read the passage. He is sincere friend
and admirer Of Parker's. We hope to get
a cast taken of Mr.. Parker to-day. Mrs.
Parker, his poor gentle wife, has hitherto
borne up well. Miss Stevenson, who has so
long resided with them, was also with him
W IuC loSG. OH0 Cuiuho, uOm Gut peculiar
tenderness of his manner yesterday, that he
knew that he was dying. He had been
dreamy for some days, and talked dream
ingly of two Theodore Parkers, one here,
and one planted in Boston, who would finish
his work perhaps true thought, only
mystically expressed. Among his last we'll
connected words were these of course

l longed to do. had great powers COM

"Since writing this, have seen him lying,
O, so peacefully! have never seen death
under form so devoid of terror. The hec-
tic color remains on his cheek and it is hard
to persuade oneself he has passed away. He
ceased to breathe without the least struggle"

MINNESOTA FLOUR IN ST.. LoU1s.-We
have frequently published statements of the
high estimation in which Minnesota wheat
is held at st. Louis, and we have now to
chronicle the equally good reputation Of our
manufactured -four. Capt. Broome of this
city sent to St. Louis 100 barrels of Xxx
-four from Minnesota spring wheat, and has
received advices that it was equal to the
best manufactured in that city, and that it
brought the highest prices.
The trouble has been here, in its imper>
feet manufacture, but this will now be OBJ
waited. Captain Broome has at Cannon
Falls, mill with all the modern impove>
ments, that turns out as good flour as can be
purchased in the market. He runs it not
entirely for the grinding of bis own wheat,
but for the accommodation of the farmers
in the country, although he has opened q
store for the sale of -four in st. Paul.
The mill is situated in the midst of q fine
farming couutry-is very capacious. and
has four run of stones. Adjoining it are
sheds and store-houses sufficient to accom-
modate all who have business at the mill.
1t will be strange anomaly, with all
our exports of wheat, if another barrel of
-four is ever imported from below-it will
deserve to rank with the speculation of "car.
rying Goals to Newcastle"
The weekly pioneer and Democrat. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. Territory) 1855-1865, 1860-06-08

TAN YARDs.-We have now got paper
mill within the limits of the State, and are
relieved from the expense of sending our
rags below to be made into paper, and in
that form to be brought back again; and the
next thing we want is tanning establish
ment, and then will spring up large estab>
lishments for the manufacture of boots and
shoes. Tanning is very much cheaper, and
labor is as cheap as the east, and there is no
good reason for our being entirely dependant
much longer. We believe the amount o.
hides now sent out of the State to be tanned
would be sufficient for the manufacture oil
all the boots and shoes required by its in
habitants,

The Cynthiana (Ky) Neys OF late date
says: Last week blooming young man,
between fifteen and sixteen years of age,
called to see his mother, in this county, after
an absence of over twelve years from her.
He was taken from her by her then heart
less husband when an infant. 1t must GER
tainly have been an occasion of great joy
for mother to find son, and for that son
to find mother. The mother had looked
upon her son as dead or lost to her forever,
for no tidings had ever reached her since the
time she lost him.

LETTER OF TOM SAVERS IN REPLY.

LETTER OF TOM SAVERS IN REPLY.
SIR-In answer to Mr.. Heenan's letter
which appeared in the Times of this day, l
beg, first, to observe that 1 have not been
hiding myself as he would insinuate l
called, with my hacker, at the Office of Bells
Life in London on Tuesday, the 9Th of May.
1 told him that my hacker and were going
out of town until Saturday. visited Tun>
bridge on Wednesday, Maidstone on Thurs.
day, Tunbridge and Hastings on Friday,
and Brighton on Saturday. My movements
were well known, and letter or telegram
addressed to "Tom Sayers," or "The Cham.
pion of England" would have found me at
either of those places, but none came to
hand.
The ridiculous suggestion, put forward by
Mr.. Heenan, of multilating the belt, laugh
to scorn, and could afford to treat it with
the contempt it merits, but that some good
friends of mine--of the Peace Society,"
have, iDnocently enough, patronized the no.
ton. The belt, sir, have fought hard to
obtain; striving for that prize have within
the last three years defeated some of the best
men of my country; and, without intending
to cast the slightest slur on my gallant op-
ponent, say that no American citizen, nor
foreigner from any other land, however
flowery and sunny, shall bear it, or the
buckle oft, from Old England, while my arm
and heart are capable of defending it. 1 am
as ready as Mr.. Heenan to fight again, and
repudiate with indignation the insinuation
that l am not. In very short time the
Champions belt will be mine by indefeasible
right; and even If Mr.. Heenan had defeated
me it would not be his. He would have to
do as have done-meet every aspirant to
the honor of wearing it for three years be-
fore he would become the lawful possessor of
the trophy. What, then, becomes of the
assertion made in Mr.. Heenan's letter, that
the belt is equally owned by both of US?
There is no such equality; but will do him
the justice he appears DESTROYS of denying
me, by admitting his equality in valor. To
run, swim, or wrestle for the belt of the prize
ring, is challenge so eminently absurd that
one can hardly imagine it emanates from
sane man, and the evidence of alteration of
mind is greatly strengthened by the propo-
sal to jump off house-top. The same
proposition was once made by lunatic, who
met his medical attendant alone on the roof
of the asylum. "Let US" said the mad pa>
tient, Selling the doctor with firm grasp,
Jump down." but the medical man, with
great presence of mind, replied, "Nay, any,
body could jump down; let US go into the
street and jump up" Like Teddy the Tiler,
1 know something of the roofs of houses,
and their foundations also, and while I UNI
questionably admit that Heenan is a
"brick," hope always to be able to say
with truth, as I do now, that am brick
layer. The offer to fight four men, at inter-
walls of thirty days, savors of bounce, and is
unworthy of John Heenan. He should re.
member that it might take him the first
month to vanquish TOW SAVERS

the particulars of his first speech to the In
dams at Watab, which was very amusing.
The entertainment was of such conver-
sational character, that we should do injus>
tice to all who contributed to it, if we at
tempted to report all the good things that
were said, and close by predicting that when
times become better, aud the State becomes
older, that the meetings of the Old Settlers
will be looked for with as much interest as
the anniversaries Of any other society in the
State.
