large. some 400 persons being present.
The programme of the burial was
about as follows: :,
On leaving the residence of the de-
ceased the hcarse which contained the
remains was flanked on either side by
three pall-bearcrs who walked with I'M
covered heads and regalias draped in
mourning. Following the hearse came
the relatives of the deceased, and next
the sisters of the Order clad in full re-
gala. The brothers came next, follow
ing them the vast concourse OF people,
who had come from far and near to wit
ness the ceremonies. The remains
were first taken to the church, where a
priest went through service peculiar
to the Catholic Church, of which the
deceased was a member. When the ex-
ercises here were concluded the pro-
cession took up it's march for the Gem.
etery, where the Granger funeral rites
were performed. The coffin was placed
on supports directly over the open
grave, and remained there till the i'm
pressive and interesting service was
concluded. G. b. Coffin, Master of the
Franklin Grange, conducted the cere.
monies.
When the brothers and sisters of the
Grange Of which the deceased was a
member had assembled about the grave.
the master read selection from the
burial ritual, followed by second sc.
lection by the Chaplain. and then the
members repeated slowly and solemnly
the Lords prayer. closing with a beau
tiful and appropriate hymn. The broth
ers of the Order then stepped to the
grave and threw into the opening sew
eral bouquets of flowers and ever
greens. A short but powerful address
was next delivered by the Chaplain.
While the Coffin was being lowered a
beautiful and soul-inspiring hymn was
sung, and during the singing the sis
tiers showcred bouquets of flowers up
on the descending coffin until it reach
cd the wooden box at the bottom of the
grave. The Master then sprinkled
portion of dir, thrown from the grave
over the coffin, and the service closed
with the solemn bcncdiction Of the
chaplain

were very beautiful aud impressive.
This is the first burial of "A Granger in
the county, and. il we are correctly in.
formed. in the State-that is with the
of the Ordcr.-Leaucnnorhh
Times.

ANCIENT TRoY.--Dr. Schleimann, the
antiquarian, having discovered what
he believed to be the ruins of ancient
Troy, English savans and critics assert
ed and attempted to prove his discov-
cries humbug; that the ruins are not
those of Troy and that the gold and
silver ornaments now in his possession
were not taken from that place at all.
The Doctor has proven the truth of his
assertions beyond doubt; that he has
found all that he claims--save that the
city unearthed may not be Troy. But
If it is not, what city is it9 His exca-
vations show the ruins of some
andvery ancient city, as plainly as
those Of Ninnevah large or Pompeii.
He has exhumed towers, walls, pal
aces. gates and temples, that show
antiquity and unmistakable Grecian
architecture, but which are married
and partially destroyed by FIRE. Il tai
lies fully with the description given by
Homer and is doubtless the ruins Of
Troy. Skeletons were found encased in
copper armors and large number Of
gold and silver candlesticks, vases,
bowls and numerous other ornaments,
all OF which show exquisite workman
ship. The controversy between these
English critics and DR.. Schleimann
arose from jealousy. The English want
credit for oil modern discoveries and
treat with contempt the reports Of dis
cover'es BY the representatives Of 9th
or nations. = as.ss.,s....sg .4

The Justice was sitting in his Office
when the policeman entered with the

"Your honor" said the officer, Il

"Stand up, sir said HIS Honor to the
prisoner, in his usual magisterial digni-
ty. "What was We trying to stale in

PRlsoxER-"Please your Honor"
"Hould your tongue, said his Honor,

with heavy thud. Mr.. Officer, state
to the Court what diabolical act the
villainous rascal was engaged in when
you nabbed him."

fair grounds by tree. / observed the
prisoner skulking about on the outside,
and thought he meant mischief of
some kind. stood behind the tree
when the villain, not seeing me, jumped
the fence. Immediately collared him
and brought him before you, your Hon
Tor. That is the man."
JusrrcE-"Ye hard hearted monster,
you. Amt yces ashamed to be rob

PgisoSER-But, your Honor. haven't

The prisoner, seeing that the Court
was memorable. pulled up his right
trowscr's leg, and drew ont piece of
paper from his boot, which, after I'M
rolling, was found to contain $50
greenback. lie passed it to the Jus.
ticc, who returned him as in change
The Justice placed the grccnback in
his wallet, and the Officer and prisoner
withdrew.
The next day the Squire went to the
bank to deposit, when the cashier po.
litely informed him that the $50 green
back was counterfeit
It Immediately occurred to his Honor
that the bogus officer and prisoner were
"dirty swindlcrs.'
Since that time the bare mention of

hearing subjects the audacious man
who darcs utter it, to fine for contempt
