Last Words Of Eminent Mea.
i5 f AGris," the funny man of the Cincin-
natl Times, gets off the following "last
words of eminent men,
All eminent men have their 'last
words" just before giving their mortal
coil the shake, and these words are often
quoted and preserved. Some Of them
appear to make a study of rendering
their closing remarks as effective az pos
sible; if they didn't, they wouldn't be
eminent men. No common man ever
e thinks it. worth while to say anything
smart, just because he is going to die;
, if he does, be is sure to make failure
i oft. What world of grandeur in the
final exclamation of Bonsparte-''Head
of the Army, and what prophetic
meaning was embodied in Weester's II
stlll i've. -.ei9ri.
All eminent men have tn die some
time, which, in mans cases, isn't alto
gether public calamity, and,the emf
nent men with whom the present day
is so layishly endowed must naturally
4 pas away They win, ofoDuBe, be q
little anxious about their last words
s9-be concerned as it were, to state
about the right thing as they de-
part. and in the hurry of going this
might not readily present itself. 1t has
occurred to us that we might be doing
our eminent men service by sugges-
ting some "last words" which they can
: adopt if they choose to do SO. We don't
charge anything for them.

N. Feyrnet gives the readers Of the
Paris Temps curious anecdote in re-
gard to the Day & Martins backing,
which has been advertised throughout
the world; and. even on the Egyptian
pyramids. rs-Es lo4
One afternoon, Day, then poor
workman, was drinking his half-and-
half in q London ale-house, when a
poor and ragged indiyidual entered,
and addressing himself to those present,
said:
"Who will give me pint of ale for a
good recipe for blackingp
81 will" said Day, and he ordered
the pint of ale for the new conner.
"Now let us have it, said he, and his
new friend gave him the desired docu-
ment.
"Good" said Day; "now i will give
you another pint" which the unknown
drank and then took his leave.
The next morning Day sought one OF
his friends, q commercial traveller
named Martin, and showed him the re-
cipe. They made a quantity of black
ing, and filled all the old bottles they
could obtain of the mixture.
This done, q friend Of the partners
went to all the partners and backing
merchants of London, and addressed TO
each one the question, "Have you Day
& Martins backing"
And all the shopkeepers naturally
on ough answered, "No."
The next day another friend went the
rounds, and TO each merchant he pro-
pounded the question that his predeces,
s0r had done. In each case he received
the same answer. The next day another
friend went to each merchant, but this
time the question was, "Would you like
to buy some of Day & Martins black
ingi" And all the merchants answered,
"Willingly," and the fortune OF the
house of Day s. Martin was made. They
adopted for their labeisa picture of q
cat engaged at seeing hisimage reflected
in polished surface of a boot, us in q
mirror, and this label has become world
famous. 1t only remains to be said that
Day, on the occasion of his daughters
marriage, was enabled to give her as
wedding gift the nice little sum of two
hundred ,thOusand dollars, which was q
good deal in those days.

Size Size. Or : completeness. Mr.. Muller has
received an expended on these

which has been sent to him voluntari-

part. He feeds, clothes and educates

has carried it on ever since. He be-

Whatever he wants he prays for. If

God for it and gets it. At least he
has for 80 years. He lives in the SIM

he began, and he is poor man to-

Western Hal or 200 more than last week, and
about 100 less from Maine. Trade at Cambridge
was dull, and of the few at that market, several
drovers were obliged TO close out at Brighton
At Brighton trade was more brisk, and perhap
shade better than last week. at the same figures.
Possibly the good dinners eaten by the forty or
fifty thousand strangers who visited the CITY last
Monday as participants in or spectators of the
Masonic display and the Presidential exhibition,
may have diminished the amount of meat in oar
market somewhat, and thus encouraged the
butchers to more liberal purchases. But when
us remembered that notover one-eighth of the
beef sold at the Boston market goes inside of
Faneml Hall, and that large part of those who
bought their meals here, saved the purchase of a
days supply at home, less disturbance in the
meat market will be expected from so great an
influx of visitors than might at first thoughts be
anticipated. We have therefore very little chan ge
to notice in in the cattle trade.
But the ship of the sheep dealers has struck
snag. When the rich Western and Kentucky
corn and blue grass fed sheep can be bought in
Albany for 6 IL cts per h., great prices can
not be expected for common northern flocks-
LAMBS, though dropping, hold up better than
those which have raised cror of wool. Lambs
were sold from 81 so to $780, the latter price for

GREAT TRoTTNG M New
York, June 81. The great match for
$4,000 between Dexter in harness and
Ethan Allen with a running mate, mile
heats, best 3 in 5, came off to-day on
the Fashion Course, Long Island
Upwards of 10000 people were pre-.
sent and Notwithstanding the absence
of the customary police force the best
of order prevailed. Dexter was the
favorite at 100 to 60.
In consequence of Ethan Aliens
running mate, Charlotte F., having
gone lame, all bets On that match were
declared off, as the substitution of an
other running mate made the original
match off. Ethan Allen won in three
straight heats in 2.15, ZIG, 2.19, be
ing the fastest time on record. Dex

by the judges, was ZIG "a.
