France-gets in debts thrown into prison.
He has no money, but he has an enormous
body of wild lands lying beyond the seas,
among the hills of Kanawha. He passes
them to his creditors-they finally come into
the hands of French mercantile firm, who
know nothing of their value. They depute
one of their body to make investigation, and,
to his amazement, he discovers that these
lands abound in materials which, if properly
developed, would furnish wealth for king
dom. This wealth being now locked up and
unavailable, his fertile brain Immediately fell
to work to devise means for releasing it, and
in the development of those MEANS it may SO
happen, and we believe it will, that he will
be the instrument of Providence for working
a most important change in the current Of
commerce, and in opening 10 the world one
of natures vastest reservoirs of treasure.

THE LATE JARED SPARKS, THE
-. HISTORIAN,

Jared Sparks, the well-known American
historian, who died at Cambridge, Mass, on
Wednesday, was born at Wilmington, Conn,
May 10, 1889. Like so many of our Ameri-
can public men, he rose from humble life by
dint of his own exertions We give the fol-
lowing sketch of his life:
His earliest occupation was upon farm,
and he also wrought in grist and saw-mill
This latter leaving much spare time, he de-
voted it to books, and thus imbibed great
fondness for learning, which he soon improved
as well as he could in the public schools
Being next apprenticed to a carpenter, be
worked at that trade for two years, during
which his taste for learning became so strong
" developed that his master cancelled his in
dentures, and Sparks became a village school,
master at Tolland, Conn.,, earning a living in
summer, when the school was closed, by odd
jobs as carpenter.
1t is a curious instance in his early struggles
that he shingled the barn of the Rev Hubbell
| Loomis, in consideration of that gentleman
| teaching him mathematics and Latin. Ano-
Their clergyman, the Rev. Abel Abbott, Sc
cured for him Il scholarship at the Phillips
Exeter Academy in New Hampshire, on
| charitable foundation, which gave him at the
| same time education and home free of cost.
So destitute was the young student that he
had to travel on foot to Mr.. Abbot at Coyen-
Try, and thence to Exeter to begin bis studies.
He was subsequently sent to Harvard College,
where he graduated in 1916 During his COL
lege life he taught for a time small private
school at Havre de Grace, Md, and while there
served short time in the militia called out to
| repel an anticipated attack by the British.
He afterwards began the study of theology at
Cambridge, Mass, and for two years, 1818-19,
was college tutor in mathematics and natural
| philosophy He also became one of an associa-
| ton by which the North American Review,
established in 1915, was conducted.
In May, 1919, he was ordained minister of
Unitarian Congregation in Baltimore, and
the next year published Letters on Ministry
Ritual and Doctrine of the Episcopal Church.
% volumes, Boston.) He remained in charge
of the church in Baltimore four years. In
1928 he published life of John Ledyard,
the American traveller, which became quite
celebrated in Europe and America. This was
the Keynote OF his great career. Alter nine
years OF elaborate research and preparation,
he published in successive volumes, from 1885
to 1857, his famous Life and Writings of
Washington, the most thorough and reliable
work on that theme extant. In 1910 he COM
pleted the publication of the works of Benia-
min Franklin.
All Mr.. Sparks historical works are distin-
guished by thorough research, candid judg-
ment, dispassionate criticism, and accuracy
and simplicity of style. Mr. Sparks was Nc
Lean Professor of History at Harvard College
from 1889 to 1849, and President of the Col
lege from l849 to 1858. In 1857 he made a
tour in Europe, and since his return he resided

In the House of Commons, on the 9Th, Mr..
Gladstone said the reform bill would be read
on the 18th. 1t would only apply to England
and Wales. He hoped then to state the
course taken regarding Scotland.
The London Times says that the courage
and decision exhibited by President johnson
in refusing his assent to the Freedmens Bu-
reau bill confirms the respect in which his
policy has been held in England, and will en-
title him to credit as one of the ablest states

CIVIL RIGHTS BILI.-A dispatch from
Washington says: ~
Your readers may rest assured that the
President will veto the "Civil Rights BILL"
and that, too, before many days. was not
able to say this positively in my last dispatch,
but am able to do so now Your readers
will remember that this bill originally formed
part of the Freedmen's Bureau bill, as pre-
pared by Senator Trumbull, and was only
separated from it and formed into separate
bill, because otherwise the Frecdmen's Bureau
bill would have been too long. s-F
This Civil Rights bill contains the same
principles, and is designed to effect the same
ends that the Freedmen's Bureau bill had in
view. The President regards it as not only
unconstitutional, but entirely unnecessary,
because all the rights of the people of the
United States are already abundantly secured
by the Constitution and if the negroes have
any wrongs to complain of, the State laws and
the State Courts afford them abundant re-
dress.
