H00D.-0n Monday, February rs, 1879, athis
residence near Hull Prairie, JAMES HOOP, in
the sixty fifth year Of his age.
The deceased wasa native Of Scotland, but
came to the Maumee Valley in 1854, whsre he
has continued to reside until the period Of his
death. In lsi7 he entered into business rela-
tions with his brother WILLIAM, in Perrysburg,
in which he continued until their removal to
Bowling Green, when he retired from active bu
siness life, and on two occasions since then he
visited the home Of his youth aud the friendly
associates ofhis earlier days.
The deceased was gentleman who possessed
an extensive acquainlauce with mon and things,
| in fact there was scarcely subject for discuss
sion but which he could converse auentiy re-
gardiug it, so general had been his reading, his
habits of study and powers Of observation.
His ready address, genial manners and friend
ly psrsonpS commanded the respect Of all with
whom he associated aud his death will leave a
blank place in the large friendly circle Of which
hs filled an important part.
! His hshts of business were eVsr'in conformity
with the highest standard Of personal reetiuiei
he was frank. candid and houest man, one oi
those whose death is always loss to the com

DeYoaily % be wished. To pull, To sleep;
To sleep psrchance to dream; qy, there's tho
rub,
For in that ,oo,hlcss sleep what dreams may
come,
When we haye shaken all our grinders out,
Must give us pause there's the respect,
That makes calamity Of tothless mouth.
For who would bear tho gtipes and stings Of
tenthache;
Tho laudanum plugs, the smell Of orsoso,e;
Tie hypDcritic words Of sympathy,
The insolencs Of urchins whose fangs are sounl;
The endless round Of nasty remedies
Which the patient sufferer -duubly cursed
Takes from those with jaws aud prongs un-
wrung ;
When he, himself, might his quietus make
With II pair Of tOrceps who would toothach9
bear.
And groan and sweat under pain and ainpels;
But that the dread Of cumming a beefstsak,
Aud The undiscOurable mysteries
or hash and hominy puzzles the will,
Aud makes us rather bear the aches we have
Than too fly to others that we kuDw not Of.

improvement of the Maumee River
We learn from the Hon L. d. PECK. that the
Engineer, who was commissioned by the Govern
ment to survey the Maumeo River, has presented
his report aud has estimated the cost Of making
channel eight feet deep from the railroad in
Toledo to the Maumee bridge, at $4,000. 1t is
highly probable that an appropriation will be
made 10 effect this improvement. With Toledo
as port 0t entry and the navigation of,.he river
free from impediment, it will be found that a new
era has dawned on manufacturing and on our
commercial enterprise.
