Jared Sparks, the well-known biogra-
pher, died at Cambridge, Mass, on We'd
nesdsy morning, in his seventy-seventh
year. Mr. Sparks was born at Willing
ton, Conn, May 10th, 1873. He studied
at Harvard, supporting himself mean
time by school teaching, and graduated
from that college in 1915. For two years
after graduation he remained in the col
lege as tutor in mathematics and natural
philosophy. he sfterward preached for
some years as pastor Of the Unitarian
church in Baltimore, but left his pastor
ate in 1897 and became editor and propri-
etor of the North American Review,
which he published for seven years. After
retiring from this labor, he devoted his at
tention to the storico-biographiesl works
on which rests the foundation of his fame.
bis Life and Writings of Washington
Works of Franklin, Diplomatic iCorres-
pondence Of the Revolution, Life of Gou-
verneur Norris, and the two series of
American Biographies which he edited,
are well known to ell students. he also
originated and edited the first volume of
that valuable, but now unfortunately ex-
tinct annual, the American Almanac.
From 1899 to 1919 Mr.. Sparks wa pro-
fessor of History in Harvard College, and
in ls49, on the resignation of Edward Ey-
erett. he became President of that insti-
tuition: which position he held for three
years. Since that time he has lived in re-
tirement.

INC Indiana Demoeracy.

The Cepperheads of Indiana, who met
in convention on Thursday, have done all
they could to insure a victory at the polls
next fall. On the subject of recon-
structien they occupy precisely the
Presidents position. They not only en-
derse his policy, but they denounce Con-
gress for opposing it, and declare that that
body has no right to act in the matter ex-
cept in judging of the election
and qualifications Of It's members.
Indeed, this platform represents perfectly
the position Of Mr.. johnson on nearly all
the political issues. Of the day. 1t holds
that the Southern States are entitled to
immediate representation, and so does Mr..
johnson. 1t d%enounces Congress, and SC
does Mr.. johnson. 1t is opposed to pro-
lection, and so is Mr.. johnson. 1t is OPP
posed to negro suffrage, and so is Mr..
johnson.
In other respects this document is Gun
ningly devised to catch votes. 1t declares
in favor Of equalizing h bountles-In
other words, of. adding six hundred mil
lions to our national debt-in order to
gain the votes Of a few soldiers. II de-
elares against all p%rohibitory liquor laws
and sundry ordinances, in order to catch
the German vote. 1t declares in favor Of
the eight-hour labor movement in order
to rope in the working men. It declares
against the repeal of the Black Code, in
order to obtain the support of a few con
sentative and "nigger-hating" Onion
men. Almost every resolution is thus a
bid for votes, and not an honest declara-
tion of principle. Whether this political
trickery will be successful is another
question.

rrscARAWAs COUNTY.

From the New Philadelphia Chronicle
The Presbyterians are at present carry
ing on q very interesting meeting at their
church in this place, and quite number
have already joined the church.
The wealth of our county in minerals
is equally great with any other in the State.
We have sandstone in all parts of the
county suitable for fine and coarse build
ing material, grindstones, fagstones &c.
Limestone is abundant, and, although IN
thin layers, is valuable for the manufac-
ture of quick lime, Hydraulic lime, for
matchmaking roads, agricultural purpo-
ses &c. Beds of shale also abound IN all
parts Of the country, useful for manufac-
turing common and fine brick, and differ
emit kinds Of pottery. Shale is alse valu-
able for applying 10 loose sandy soils, as
it greatly improves their texture.
In the amount and value Of coal de-
posts, Tuscsrawss is not supposedly any
county in Ohie. We have several beds of
workable coal, and mines may be opened
on nearly every square mile OF a IN the
county. A large amount of the coal
which finds a market in Cleveland, is tax
en- from the mines at New Castle, a few
miles from New Philadelphia. Il is es-
timated that the whole amount of coal IN
this county is equal 10 q bed six
feet in thickness and extending over
the entire county, which would make
over three billion tons of coal.
Our mines are now doing well, but they
must eventually pay much better when
the forests of Western Ohio and Indinna
are cleared up for agricultural purposes
computing the value of u coal at SIX
cents per bushel for digging, we find our
coal alone is worth the enormous sum OF
three billions, four hundred and twenty
millions of dollars. But this is not eur
only mineralOf value, we also have sew
raj extensive layers of iron ore which
are separated from each other by bets of
shale, sandstone, DC. That our ore is of
excellent quality has been sufficiently
proven by the vast amount of splendid
iron produced from it at the Zoar, Gran
vile, Massillon, Akron and Dover furna-
ces. The beds vary in thickness fromthree
to twelve feet, and the ore is Of greater or
less value in different parts Of the u
try but everywhere yields a sufficient
amount Of iron 10 make it valuable. We
cannot too fully appreciate the value of
our minerals, and it is to be hoped that
more energy will be exercised in different
parts of the county in bringing this great
wealth forth from the bowels of the earth.

we're passed, among which were the fol.
lowing:
Resolpsd That ours being 8 republican

Col. Forney recently proposed in the
Washington Chronicle a platform upon
which he thought Congress and the Pres

let the Tennessee members in; second
let the Senate pass the amendment repu-
dating the rebel debt third, insist that
the other rebeIlious States shall agree tc
it before they are admitted to represents
ton; fourth, pass the civil rights bill
fifth, pass bills equalizing the bounties fol
the benefit of the soldiers. This PROPOSE
ton is as striking for what it does not in.
clude as for what it does.

The bill to strike the word white out OF
the act defining the qualifications Of cleo
tors in the District Of Columbia passed
the House Of Representatives, on the 18th
of January last, by q vote of more than
W to one, only eleven Republicans vot-
ing against IT. 1t has been in the posses
sion Of the Senate for more than two
months, and yet that body has failed to
act il, to debate it, or TO consider it
for a single hour. This neglect of a most
important measure calls for attention and
condemnation. We hope that it may not
be persisted in. We most earnestly en-
treat the Senate to take up this bill and
pass it at once. 1t contains only a propO-
sition which appeals to every mans sense
of Justice. It is nevertheless of vital con-
sequence, for If is a practical expression
of the national legislature in favor of
equal rights-an example and lesson to all
the states, north and south, Of the manner
in which the nation treats her citizens-a
declaration in favor of the liberty and
equality of mankind, which it is fitting
that the people Of this great Republic, act
ing through their representatives, should
nut on record. Let the Senate no longer
delay or daily with it.
Another reason forimmediste action upon
the bill is that it will give President John
son an opportunity still further to define
disposition. Many people are now anxious
lyasking: Where does the President stand7
They are still in doubt as to his present
position and intended policy. Now, if,
as the ofioe-holding supporters Of Mr..
johnson assert, he is still in hearty
unison with the Republican party,
notwithstanding his veto message, and
Wsshington's Birthday speech, the pas
sage of this bill will give him an oppor-
tunity to prove his sincerity by signing 1t.
If on the other hand he stands with the
Copperheads in opposition to Equal Rights,
as well as in favor Of restoring the traitor
Gus South to power, he will have 8 chance
to define and defend his position in anoth-
er veto message. We hope, then, that the
Senate win waste no more precious time
in dawdling over unimportaua4uestions
but will take up and act upon this bill
with the celebrity. which It's naturessssde-
mands and which the Union strength in
that body renders practicable.
