DEATH or HORACE GREELEr.

Last Friday the melancholy news
flashed across the wires that Horace
Greeley was no moro, his spirit hav-
ing crossed the Dark River on that
morning, after a few days of rapid
mental and physical prostration. The
cause of his death is not very clearly
stated by the brief telegraphic dis
patches, but it is generally understood
10 have resulted from his excessive
labors during the late political con.
test, coupled with grief and despond.
ency at the loss oc his beloved wife.
Horace Greeley was born at Am
herst. New Hampshire, IN the year
1911, and was consequently sixty-one
years old ut the time of his decease.-
In 1925, his parents having removed
to Vermont, Horace, who had always
been lover of books, obtained en-
ployment as an apprentice in print
ing Office, aud in August. 1881, ar
rived in New York City, where in the
profession which he adopted he sub
sequently carved his name in the
highest niche of journalistic famc.-
For the past thirty years his career
has been so intimately associated with
the history OF our country that all are
familiar with it.
The following touching and beauti-
ful tribute from the New York Iri6-
u'e of last Saturday may not be out
of place in referring to the distinguish
ed dead, and we therefore quote it in
full: The melancholy announcement
of the death of the editor who found
ed the Tii6ao,e, though for few days
it has been expected by his family
and intimate friends, falls upon us
sll with the shock of a sudden calam-
ity. He indeed reached a high old
age, but time had not laid its wlther-
ing touch on him. His splendid con-
stitution easily bore strain of enor-
nous labor; his mind was as fresh,
strong and suggestive as in the prime
of life. His generous impulses were
unchilled by the disheartening ex-
perience through the trying cam
palgn which has Just closed. His
physical vigor, his tact, his intellectual
activity, surprised even those who
knew him best, aud seemed to prom
Use many years of usefulness. 1t is
certain that no history of the critical
period of our national life can ever
be written in which he will not be
conspicuous figure. His only am
bition was to alleviate human misery
and leave the world little better
than he found it. That he had done
this was a consolation that frightened
his last days and assured him that he
had not lived in vain 1t is not for
us in the hour of our loss to saint bis
character or catalogue his virtues
Although for months We have missed
the inspiration of his presence and
guidance, his wise counsel, his spirit
which never ceased to animate those
chosen to continue his work, and the
elaspbonds of sympathy between the
chief andahis assiatants have never
been broken. We leave his praise TO
the poor, whom he succored; to the
lowly, whom he lifted up; to the
slaves. whose backs he saved from
the lash; to the oppressed, whose
wrongs he made his own"

THE perplexing question now is, in
view of Mr.. Greeley's death, TO whom
will his electoral votes be cast in the
Presidential contest. 1t is suggested
by prominent journals that the votes
should be thrown for Grant so as to
make his election unanimous. 1t oc-

TO which they could be put.
