THE RESTING PLACE OF PRENTICE.

II e.
The grave where George d. Prem
tice sleeps is not made conspicuous
by outward adornments. but the
fame of the man whose bones rest
beneath its sod gives it prominence.
| Though one of the humblest graves
in the beautiful Cave Hill Cemetery,
it claims more attention than those
all around it marked by imposing
monuments. Long before he died
Prentice built a monument for him
self, a monument grander in its
every proportion than any hewn out
of marble. But it is only the mortal
part of the man that sleeps at Cave
Hill 1t can be said of him as he
once feelinglv said of Colonel Wal
lace, bending over the last resting
place Of the dead: g Farewell, old
friend Though the green sod is now
above thy mortal form, the blue sky
is no longer above thy immortal
soul" \ writer in the Louisville
Commercial. who has been wander
ing among the monuments of Cave
Hill Cemetery says:
AS We walk to the hillside We
stop and look with feelings of sor-
row at the humble spot where the
Nestor of the press. the man of
princely intellect, George d. Prem
;ice, lies. The poet and journalist,
whose pen evoked the admiration of
the world. whose name was synOny-
l. l-,1
poetic in literature. lies in an hum
bic and almost unnOticed grave. 4

four columns. with an urn i'll the

broken string-sO sadly expressive
Of .he music that has been lost to
the world-is all that represents in
material substance the illustrious
dead On the grass which is spring
ing up green and fresh over the
l1Wlv grave. IS broken goblet. in
which sometimes was placed some
flower tribute by grateful and low
ing hand. This is all that indicates
the re,ting-place OF the man that
Kentucky should he proud to honor.
The remains OF Courtland Prentice
lie near by. and are more distin
gai.hahle in their outward adorn-
ments than those of his father"

If he could but know himself to the extent of re- signing his sword entirely to the busi- ness of training up his vines and tig- trees in the way they should go. he might, in the language of the immor- tai Capt.

He would at least put himself in the line of promotion to pity, and thereby he might still be enabled to rise and shine as 2 school trustee-leave last ing impression as wide as the influence of one-story crossroads.

POWELL'S EXPLORATIONS.

Col. Powell, of Illinois, who has made the only valuable explorations of the upper Colorado, and it's tri- butaries, has again started out upon a campaign. This time his main pur- pose will be to make a survey of the Green River. Following is his letter to the Secretary of Interior upon which he secured from Congress the required appropriation.
 WASHINGTON, D. C., Jun. 13, 1871.
 DEAR SIR: 1 would respectfully re- quest of you to ask of Congress an appropriation of $12,OOO, to complete the typographical and geological survey of the valley Of Green River.
 The estimate made by me last year for the survey of the Colorado proves to be sufficient for that work.
 The Colorado is formed by the junction of the Grand and Green, the Green being the larger. The valley of this stream below the crossing of the Union Pacific Railroad is yet un- known for the great.r part of it's ex- tent, but have passed down the river, and made map of its course. now wish to include the adjacent valley on my map, and to determine with greater accuracy the attitudes, longi-, tudes, and attitudes of the more im- pOrtant points.
 I shall have party in the field, with instruments, boats, and pack train, and I shall be compelled to pass down the river to finish my work on the Colorado. Under these circum- stances the work can be done at much less cost than as an original enter prise.
 In addition to the topography and general geology of the region, I make careful observations of the extent of country that can be redeemed by irri- gation, and of the location and value of the coal and iror deposits, which are very extensive, so that the survey has great economic value in addition to any results it may yield to science.

Mr. T. B. Smith, of Warsaw, H., oblig- es Us with the following travcsty on Little Brooches, or A Pike County View of Spe- cial Providences," and says that Agnes M. Aldrich, daughter of Major Aldrich ot Tucson, is the author. All those who re- member the points in the, original poem, will surely enjoy one or more readings of this. Among all the limitations of this style of rhythm and phraseology, we re- member none better than the following:l You say, you Ecver have seen it.
 Wall, whar have you been pray? That you ain't hearn tell of the poetry,
 That was written by Jonny Hay; All about old man Crippler-
 And how one day he swore, That with Gabe and load of turnips,
 He'd go down to Taggart's store. Jonny will have it, he stopped thar,
 To fill his molasses jug; But the mount of it was, twas whisky:
 Or likely he wanted plug Of terbaccer to keep him from chokin',
 For Pm willing to bet my shears, They ain't had a drop of molasses
 Inside of the house foryears. And as for old Crippler's hunting
 And praying, and all siah like, That will do to gammOn stranger,
 But it won't go down in Pike. For the neighbOrs ali know for certain,
 That neither him nor Parr Would have gone from Taggart's till morn
 As long as thar's whisky thar. lin. Then, their finding Gabe in asheepfold-
 Whar he never had slept a wink; But sot thar yelling for packer,
 Is poetical, don't you think? And to dream that the angels toted
 The dern little cuss along, Is most too much of a good thing
 That's going it rather strong. For think the angels deserving
 Of censure, if they would dar To rescue four year older,
 Who had learned to chaw and swar: And if the tarnation critter
 Had belonged to me, you know Blast my eyes, if wouldn't
 Have left him out in the snow. And l VOW, if the Lord Almighty,
 Keeps his spirits rOvin' round, Tcting such tarnal cusses,
 Wherever they may be found, He'd better go runnin' saw-mill
 And sot the whole dern crew To work: for he'll find that angels
 Had better have something to do. But, there's one thing puzzles my poddle
 That seems alfred strange to me: Perhaps its because Pm ignorant,
 And ain>t hepn rOund VOu Caa. But lswar, that in ali my lifetime,
 Of all things Tve known, never hearn tell of an angel

The GRAND CENTRAL HOTEL.
the most striking types Of the progress
Of the age, is the development Of pala-
tal hotel enterprises. New York has
Just ushered in a new triumph in this
particular. The Grand Central Hotel
situated on Broadway, midway between
the up town and down town hotels!
rears its magnificent marble front and
swallows up almost an entire block.
Only opened, as it were, on yesterday, it
has become already crowded with
guests, from every part OF the country.
As YOU enter its magnificent portals,
the brilliant coup d all exceeds any
thing yet produced in this country or
the world. One becomes absolutely
confused with the surrounding magnif-
ceuce. 1t has to be seen to be ap-
preciated. The Grand Central bears
about the same relation to other first
class hotels as the Great Eastern did to
other firstclass ocean steamers. With
between one and two hundred rooms
more than any other hotel on this COZ
tinent, the Grand Central is the colos-
sus of the age. In all the appoint
ments, everything is fully up to the
mark for q frst-class New York city
hotel. The carpets, furniture, parlors,
linen, and all the ct eetera, are gorgeous.
The genial proprietor, Mr.. II. L
Powers, of hotel renown, whose re-
markable administrative qualities emf
| nently fit him to preside over this mod.
ern Coliseum, and all his numerous
CORPS of assistants, are most attentive,
| polite and kind, and appear to run tine
| vast establishment with natural ease
and system. Already the Southern ele.
| ment is concentrating at this house
| where one is almost certain to meet
with friends and acquaintances without
the trouble Of going around in the
search to the other hotels. To enter
upon q minute description Of this new
! wonder OF the world would be fatiguing
from the inexhaustibility Of the detail
Suffice it to say, that those who may
favor the immense establishment with
their patronage cannot fail TO be pleased
with the genuine courtesy extended
and to retain agreeable remembrance'
of the uniform and polite civilitIe'
showered upon them. The price o
board at this hotel is exceedingly mod

the DOmfnicans.
New YORK, January THE Evening
Post, Of yesterday, contains long arti'
Gle upon San Domingo, making, among
others, the following astounding state
ments: e.. .-. E..s....t
First-Several war ships Of the United
States are lying on the Dominican coast,
at the service and orders of Baez, and
used by him as though they belonged
to him. ... s.......
Second-That these vessels were used
to intimidate the people, when they
were asked to vote on annexation, and
that the vote sent to Washington was
obtained by such intimidation.
Third-That Baez could not main
tain his power if it were not for the
open threats of the commanders Of the
United States naval vessels to destroy
the towns on the coast, in case rising
Is attempted.
Fourth-It is asserted that. half a
million of paper money printed in the
United States, reported publicly, but of
course falsely, to be guaranteed by the
United States as means Of giving 1t
value, has been received by Baez and
he was about to put it in circulation.
Fifth-It is reported in San Domln-
90 that the United States Government
has paid Baez $l50,0O0 as a second
year rent for Samana Bay. Also, it is
asserted there, and not denied, that the
best lands in and near Samana Bay are
already in possession Of Canneau, Fa.
bens, Babcock and Baez.
Sixth-We are assured that the Dom
inican public debt, which amounted in
1868, according to the Comptroller. to
two million OF dollars, has been largely
increased, and that during the last six
months numerous old claims against
the government have been allowed, and
these claims have been bought up at a
very low rate by persons conspicuous in
urging the annexation.
Seventh-There seems to be no doubt
that Admiral Porter in the Severn was
sent to tell the Haytien government
that if it interfered with the schemes o.
the United States and Baez in San Do
mingo it would bring trouble upon it
self This is as though Napoleon had
said to the United States that if they
interfered with his schemes in Mexico
he would declare war against us. Yet
General Grant thought it would be right
and wise to send American troops tc
drive the French out of Mexico.
The persons who make these charges
are Dominicans, in favor Of annexation
to the United States; but they com.
plain that the United States Govern.
ment is proceeding with brute force
and unjustly in the matter; that its
power is grossly misused by bad men
to advance their own selfish ends; and
and that the people who see themselves
/ coerced by our navy and sold by Baez
are indignant and dissatisfied, and will
resist annexation and cause us trouble
when, if wisely managed, they would
gladly consent.
