Obituary.


Died, a. his residence in Maury county,
Tenn, Nov. 18th, 1870. Capt. WILLIM GAR-
RErr, at the ripe age of s. years and 4 months.
Capt. WILLIAM GARRETT was born in Loudon
county, Virginia, in the year 11S5, married
Marian Marshal, daughter of Capt. William
Marshal, of Virginia, Dec. LIST, 1872. Emigrated
to Tennessee in 1918, profcssed Religion, and
Joined the Baptist church the year 1s32, in
which church he lived an exemplary life up to
his death. We can say that about Father GAR
REsr that can be said Of but few men living:
He died ou ing no man one cent and at ptac.
with his God, and all men, and was q general
~favorite with all churches and all his peighbos.
What better can be said Of any man! Father
GARRETT was a man who carried his religion
with him everywhere he went, and all felt Is
influence who came in contact with him. Ie
was noted for his sociability. Possessing The
capacity eminently for conversation, be charm
ed his hearers, and through all of his converse
ton there always ran O vein Of religious senti-
ment. No man was better beloved, and few
will be missed so much.
But in A~utumn's ull-ripe Season, willie the
ripe harvest is being gathered into the barns
and the flowers and ripe leaves Of the forest ire
sinking on the bosom of the earth, where thy
can rest in peace while the storms "fwintcr Ie

mus. endure the storms Of Life, till the Great
Harvester, shall gather us and house US safely
from the Winters blast. With regard u Fa-
thcr GARRETT's death, we can say Of a truth
that he died the death of the righteous. The
last word that ever fell from his lips, Lord
Jesus, receive my soul" after which he closed
his eyes and mouth, as if to sleep, with a smile
that fingered on his face when buried. How
blcssedthe righteous when he dies, az the DE-

WAsHISeroS, April 5.--fhe Senate Com
uittee on Foreign Relations had an irregular
weetjng yesterday, and gave some attention
to the Arctic exploration question. The opin-
ion was expressed BY prominent members Of
the Committee that the whole matter viii fail.
The Radical Senators who some days since
opposed Judge Bonds confirmation as Circuit
Court Judge for Maryland. have changed their
views and are now going to support him. 1t is
saBpesed that the influence Of the administra-
ton has effected this.
The Fernando ~osd, Howard investigation
begun yesterday, and seyers. Witnesses ap-
peased for the prosecution. General Howard
snd FsFasRde Wood were both present, at
tended by their counsel, Among the FIRST acts
of the committee was the passage Of a resolu-
1 tion making all proceedings of the committee
strictly secret Mr.. Wood was In favor Of
having the investigation open. and Of allow
;Be tho representatives Of the public press to
J be present. ~ tbs arrangement Mr.. Arnell,
chairman Of the coE9itiee. and majority Of
the friends Of General Howssd, objected The
counsel were informed that no copies sf ihe
evidence would be allowed, and that no re-
direct examination would be permitted in
shsrt the committee proposes 10. do what no
other inTesasa.ion committee has ever been
able to accomplish. asEely, stop all leaks and
constitute itself a veritable rssT Chamber.
Under these circumstances nothing can be
gained, except from witnesses who have not
the fear Of the committee before their eyes.
The witnesses examiled yesterday were A.
s. Cox. executor Of the estate upon which the
Howard University is erected, the Recorder oi
Deeds for the District OF Columbia. and ]. W.
Rumsey and William Hsrney. contractor for
the University building. The evidence mainly
related to certain real estate operations. Tes-
tissOpy was taken showing the worthless char
acter Of tho patent brick. out Of which the
Howard University vss built. and how How

SPECIAL NOTICE.

Help for the Miserable.-No wonder
that the face Of the dyspeptic has a dragged.
worn, hopeless expression that is pitiful to see.
No wonder that the miserable martyr to indi-
eestion Is fretful, irritable. and unsocial.
Whoever can bear the pangs of this torment
ing complaint cheerfully, and with an un-
rutfled temper, is little short of a saint. But
why should human fortitude continue to be
thus severely tried, when an absolute specific
for the disease is always at hand? Every
where within the limits of civilization in this
hemisphere Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is OBJ

eating. and of oppression afterwards, the fiut-
tering of the pulse, the intense nervous irrita-
ton, the morbid indisposition TO exertion, the
WEAKNESS of life and indifference to all its
pleasures. which are among the symptoms of
the disease in its chronic form, are rapidly
ameliorated by the tonic operation Of this pal
atable vegetable restorative, which seems to
renovate and quicken all the dormant forces
Of the system, and rouse the mind from the
apathy and gloom inseparable from derange-
ment of the digestive and secretiye functions.
