WILLIAM X. SEWARD.


 On Thursday afternoon, the Hon. eWil- ham H. Seward died at his residence in Auburn. N. r., after few days illness. Mir. Seward was born in 1901, and grad uated at Union College in 1919. He first became prominent in politics during the anti-masonic excitement; went to the State Senate in 1880; was twice elected governor of New York, in 1888 and 184O; and was sent to the United States Senate in 1S49. There he took strong anti-slave- " ground, and on the formation of the Republican party became its recognized leader. From motives of policy, however, Fremont and Lincoln received the presi- dential nominations. During the seces- sion fever of the winter of .1S6O-1, Mir. Seward made speech, somewhat conser- vative in tone, and did not take the de- cisive ground that was generally expected of him. MT Lincoln made him his sec- retary of State, and for a considerable time he was the controlling spirit of the first Republican administration. His conservative tendencies becoming more and more apparent, he gradually lost the influence with his party that had marked his earlier national career. His attempt cd assassination on the night of Lincoln's murder restored temporarily something of his former popularity; but, on being re- stored to health, he favored Johnson's re- construction policy, and with the retire nrent of that administration retired from public life. s7sf r +.,.-,
 The general and We believe the just criticism upon Mr. Stewards political ca- reer has been that his great success was owing rather to his adroitness as a politi- clan than to wisdom as statesman Still he was unquestionably one of the first of the leading Wings to recognize the para mount political importance of the slavery issue, and to him more than to any other man was perhaps due the successful or ganization of the Republican party.

Our correspondent mistakes our posi- tion. If Prohibition has heretofore re-

 even partially, it should be continued by vote of ''no icense." If, on the contra ", Prohibition was an abandonment of all restraint, then ':license' promises some alleviation, at least, of the evil.

THE FATAL TRICHINA.-It behooves
those people who are fond of pork to be
particular as to the quality of the article.
We have already referred to two deaths in
Cleveland from trichina, through eating
diseased pig meat. Two other people, in
the same city, are now suffering from the
same disease, with very little probability Of
recovery. AS in the first case, the COM
plant was brought on through eating sau-
sage made Of pork. Part Of the food was
composed of meat bought in the market,
and part from an animal fattened by
the sufferers themselves. On examin-
ing the two kinds of pork with a
microscope, it was discovered that the
meat procured at the market was full of
tricbina, while none could be seen in the
home-fed portion. AS there is no intima-
ton that the former was at all deeomposed,
the disease was probably the result of bad
feeding of the hogs from which the pur-
chased meat was taken. However that
may be, it is incumbent upon the con-
sumers Of pork to be very particular as TO
the quality of it. There is no doubt that
many diseased beeyes and sheep, as well as
hogs, are killed and sent to market for
food. The poorer classes are, of course,
the most likely to suffer from thus unscru-
puIous conduct of the dealers; but beei
and mutton, fortunately, are not effected
with trichina, and ought at all times to be
preferred to suspiciously cheap or doubtful
looking pork. --ETchQnge.

Tn PRESENTING TO YOUR NOTICE, FOR
Il the fist time in an extended way, the +. +
(FAMILY FAVORITE) WEED SEWING-MA-
CHINE, we will state some of the reasons why
we think we are justified in claiming it to be the
BEST:
BECAUSE before being offered to the people,
1t was tested by able sewing-machinists, and by
them pronounced;
BECAUSE, it took the first prize at the great
Paris Exposition in 1867;
BECAUSE, it took the first prize at the great
four weeks contest between sewing machines at
the Baltimore (Maryland) Institute in 1882
BECAUSE, it will do what any other first
class locls-stitch will do;
BECAUSE, it will do what most of them can
not do We say this without disparagement to
the merits of other machines;
BECAUSE, in the five years it has been before
the people, the sale has been SO rapid that the
company have been unable to supply the de-
nand, thus leaving Virginia and great part of
the country unsupplied; and last, but not least,
to give a woman's reason,
BECAUSE, it is just little darling and so
easy to learn. 81.
