. est sect, and devotedly attached to
the Union which the fathers left
US. In 1864, when Governor Hol-
/ den ran against Governor Vance, Rich
ard Short boldly announced to his fellow
citizens of Pitt, his preference for the Tor
mer. When again Governor Holden ran
for the Gubernatorial chair, and was defeat
ed by Governor Worth, Mr.. Short could
neither be cajoled nor coerced to vote for
Governor Worth. He adhered closely and
faithfully to the great fundamental prlncl-
| plies of the Republican party. While lie be-
| jieyed in the cardinal doctrine of the uni
versal brotherhood of man, and the equality
| of all men before the law, he was too honest
| and sincere man to indulge in a slckly
sentimentality about race and color. While
he insisted strenuousy upon the equal lights
of the colored man, he never forgot the
claims of his own race. He was a Republic
can, but not partizan. His large hearted-
ness i'm this respect often rendered him OBJ
noxious to the censures of his political asso-
cates, and probably deprived him of much
of the influence which he might otherwise
have cxerted in this body.
If there he any who doubted his Republl-
canism, pray them not to forget that Rich
ard Short avowed his sympathies with that
party when many of us who are now occu-
pving prominent places within the pale were
found among its railers and opposers. fle
did not wait to avow his sentiments until
the rising sun of power and prosperity gil
died. the mountain tops, but III the darkest
hour in the history of the State he gloried
in being recognized and cursed for his Re
publicanism. 1t required no small quantity
of moral nerve. surrounded as he was In Fit
county by men of standing and wealth who
abhorred the principles of the party, to
come out and bear the reproach and social
ostracism to which his political faith sub
jected him. And moreover it must not be
forgotten that Mr. Short had intermarried
into large and influential circle of relatives
who were, and are mortally averse from Re
publicanisni, so that lie had not only to bear
up against the pressure Of outsiders, hut even
to resist the most irresistible of all infiu-
ences, the alternate frowns and blandlsh-
nents of those most near and dear to him.
But amidst all these adverse circumstances,
Richard Short was faithful even unto death
to those principles which he SO fearlessly
and frequently avowed.
Let US. who survive him, strive to be equal
ly faithful in our day and generation. We
have ourworkto accomplish, and our time to
do it is short and uncertain.
Two members of this Assembly, within
a few months, have passed into eternity.
Who will be the next one? Let each of US

Mr. HoDNETT reminded the House, that
when the measure proposing to resume the
payment of the interest on the public debt
was before the House, that he had declared
that the people were unable to pay that
interest, and that he had begged
delay until they could in some measure re-
cuperate. The Treasurer had found it i'm
possible to borrow sufficient funds to meet
the required interest, and in view of this
fact would the Legislature go on and ruin
the people and Government OF the

Mr.. Downing that Mr.. II. was not speaking

speech. Railroads were wanted and they
would be had; money can also be secured
The passage of a revenue bill would be fol-

Mr.. DowNING said that when the Treasu-

Important Diseoverv--A New Way
Of Preserving the Human Body.

Important DtscOVery-.A NcSC Way
Of Preserving the HMNsan Body.
A correspondence of the london AsAenoum,
writing from Naples, gives some interesting
information respecting the means employed
by Professor Abbate of that city for pre-.
serving the human body. He says:
"Some secret similar to Mr.. Abbate's has
existed for q long time, rs all the travellers
who have visited Florence probably we'll
know. In the Cabinet of Physiological
Anatomy in Santa Maria Novella, there are
preparations Of portions Of the human body
by DR.. sega,o. The Grand Ducal Govern.
mcnt refused to purchase the secret, which
died with Segato. His preparations, re.
peat, were only portions of the body. where
as that which is now being exhibited In
Naples, in the ex-convcnt of Santa Maria
della Nuova, Is the entire body OF youth of
seventeen years Of age, who died Of phthisis
about the end of last January. For five
months, therefore, it has resisted the action
of 4 very variable atmosphere. The features,
the integrity of the form, are perfectly pre-.
served as they were at the moment of death.
The nails have roscatc hue; there is no
odor OF any kind; and the flesh has the
hardness almost of marble To this let II be
added, that the hair adhcrcs SO tenaciously to
the head that II is impossible to remove 1t,
of course without violence. The operation
of embalming or petrifying is effected In .
few hOurs. without the ncceesity of remOv.
ing the dress; indeed another body had been
petri6ed, according to the same system.
without taking off the dress, and even pre-
serving the gloves on. We know says =
medical gentleman, not an italian, to whom
l am indebted for these details, that some
gentlemen In Naples, after having proved
what we have stated, made an alteration In
their wills, imposing It As an obligation on
their heirs that they shall apply the system
of Abbatc to their bodies, in the event OF
their dying before the professor.

How A JOLLY SENATOR BATHED A DIS
1Nau1snED LADY.-A Long Branch CORES.
pondent relates the following:
We saw several bathing together at the
same time, and seeing the bathers handling
the round, plump and Venus-fomed girs
we became much excited. Many amusing
incidents occur In these delightful bathing
operations We will relate one: Senator
Murphy, who is tine-l looking, jovial, whole
souled, intellectual fellow, went down to
bathe, and while in the costume Of the bath
ers was addressed by lady OF distinction,
who had come down alone to bathe: " You
can come and bathe with me r The Senator
jumped at the opportunity, and taking the
fair lady by the hand, led her out into the
water, protected her from the under currents
and sometimes dangerous waves, at thesame
time listening to her joyous exclamations,
such a., "Oh, how delightful!' 1T Is In
deed deliciousr' etc. After getting through
with bathing and paying tho Senator tho
dfty cents, which 10 the regular price chazg-
Cd by the "bathing men," !" one Of whom she
supposed the Senator was, she said to him:
We'll, sir; wish you to bathe meevery day
q eleven o'clock. What name shall I call
when I want your" "Tom, madame; I
win wait on you with pleasure" Soon A.
terwards the lady met the Senator In tho
parlor. She saw her mistake, and blushingly
left the room. Tom Murphy, however, met
her at the breakfast table and removed her
embarrassment BY saying, In bic winning
way, " Tn nobody but Tom, madame, and
hope you win call for me at eleven o'clock."
