Henry Rowe Schoolcraft. LII. d.

This celebrated and industrious author of
several works and historian of the antiquities
ofthe North American Indians, died at Wash
ington, D. G. a few days ago, aged IA. We
think the Tribune must be mistaken when it
said in an obituary notice Of DIR. Schoolcraft
that "he married Miss johnson the grand
daughter Of a celebrated Indian Chief" We
always supposed he marrieda daughter of Mr..
johnson whose wife was an Indian woman.
but not the daughter of an Indian Chief
Mr.. johnson was an early settler at Sault ST.
Marie snd engaged in the iur business. Our
impression is that Schoolcraft's first wife was
the daughter of this same johnson. She had
brother and one or two sisters, all well edu-
Gated and accomplished. We have been at
their house where they lived in good style,
but they would not forget the habits of the
Indians. Every spring they would go into the
woods, camp out and make maple sugar. Such
life for short season afforded them great
pleasure. The girls were very beautiful and
highly accomplished The brother was an in
telligent man and loved the magnificent seem
cry about Lake Superior. He told us he once
saw trout weighing one hundred pounds.
caught on the north shore of Lake Superior.
We did not doubt his word, for we saw one on
a wheelbarrow at Mackinaw that weighed sew
enty two pounds. This is great country and
we intend Its greatness shall not be diminish
ed by rebels or any other earthly power.

This American Minister to the Court Of st.
Cloud, died ofapoplexy on the I'd inst Mr..
Dayton was born in New Jersey on the 17th
Of February, 1907. He studied law, but
soon gave much Of his attention to the POI
itics of the country. He was very popular in
his native State, and exercised much influence
in political affairs, being one of the leaders of
the old wing party, and several times elected
to seat in the State Legislature. He was al
so, elected Judge of the Supreme Court. In
1912 he was appointed by Gov. Pennington
United States Senator for an unexpired term
and elected to ill it by the Legislature in Oc
tober. Ia 1s45 he was chosen for full term
ofsix years.
The Republicans nominated him as candi-
date for the Vice Presidency on the Fremont
ticket, June, 1856. After Mr.. Lincoln's cleo
ton he appointed Mr. Dayton Minister to
France. That duty he discharged with em-
inent ability until his death. He possessed
strong Intellectual powers, sustained an excel
lent moral character, aud exercised much in
huence 10 political circles, ere he went abroad
toserye his country in France.

George w. Sanders and Jacob. Thompson
are very busy in Canada about this time, and
the Toronto Globe has no doubt these fellows
have furnished the money used in the recent
raids upon our territory. 1t will be recollect-
ed that this Thompson was a member of Jas.
Buchanan's Cabinet. Being pupil Of the
"Old Public Functionary," it is no wonder
that he has been SO well instructed in the
school of treason, and perfectly qualified for
the role he is now acting In Canada, in COM
pany with the notorious Sanders who once
said, these Southern raiders would perpe-
trate acts at which European civilization
would shudderr 1t is not strange that the
Globe should utter the following language:

Dear Miss F.:-To your last letter of De-;

is the true cause of my dilatoriness, and I have

genuity to stow away SO many valuable sup
plies, in two tents, which are at once our read
ing room, dining room, parlor and, dormitory.
We have space enough to turn round, and
that is all I want. It is excuse enough for
me, to friends who call, and see. our store

up, because they feel so much for the wants of
our men.

that when Garibaldi visited Mrs. P. A. Taylor,

good thing for England to endow q profess

American history and geography. Mr.. Cob

to say nothing Of other classes, betray great
ignorance of our country, both as it relates to
our history and geography, and such profess

much service to the rising generation, upon

Tenements in Paris, France.

1t is calculated that there are now in Paris
not less than $4,000 apartments vacant, and
that many, If not the most Of them, have been
so for some years past, and they are likely to
continue so in consequence of the enormous
ntdemanded. The ground and buildings
cost so much that they cannot be afforded at
any thing like a reasonable rent Since Louis
NapoleOn's reign wonderful Improvement have
been made in Paris. Fountains, gardens an
squares stand where only few years ago no
human habitation was seen. People now talk
Of double road of statues running from one
