Josiah o. SteRrns.

Josiah o. Stearns, late superintendent OF the
New Jersey Central Railroad, died at his resi-.
dence In Elizabeth, yesterday morning of ty-
phOid fever, after an illness of ten days. Mr..
He commenced railroad life as conductor on the
Pennsylvania Central road. from which he sub
sequently transferred his services to the New
Jersey Central, occupying the position of Assls-
tanJ superintendent thereon Till 1862, when he
succeeded his relative, Mr.. John O. Stearns, as
superintendent. Mr.. Stearus was indefatiguble
in the discharge or his duties to the Company
and was universally esteemed for his liberaliJy
TO the poor and his many social virtues. He
was bach elOr, but, at the time of his demise
was on the eve OF marriage. He was q member

Rev. DR.. BasiIiO Manuel ArIlIaga.

The Rev. DIR. Basilio Manuel Arillaga. Supe-
rior of the Jesuits in Mexico, and rector OF the
College of san Ildefcnso died in the prison
there OF the privations to which he was sub
jected. DR.. Arllaga was over eighty years of
age, and was arrested by the Liberal authori-
ties, together with Bishop Ormaechea, of Vera
Cruz, He was probably the most erudite scholar
that Mexico ever produced, and at some time
or other had under his tutorshtp the
most prominent and eminent men of his
country. In 1856 the Abbe Testory, head
chaplain of the French forces, wrote
q pamphlet In defense of the Nationalist.
ton OF Church property. In the course
of his remarks he characterized the Mexican
clergy as ignorant and corrupt DR.. Arillaga
replied to this brochure in three pamphlets,
and brought down upon the Abbe Testory the
Indignation OF all uniuterested foreigners then
in Mexico. The reply of DR.. Arillaga is a mas
terpiece of learning, statistics w.t. and sar-
casm. Perhaps nothing contributed more to
the estrangement between the native impe-
rialists and foreign interventiOnists, and ulti-
mately to the downfall of the empire, than this
pamphlet of the Abbe Testory. The memory
OF Dr. Arillaga will be revered by all Mexicans,
without distinction of party.
