| KRNosHA WIS, Oct. 18th A. d. 1874.
AT a regular communication Of Kenosha
Lodgy No. ~. F. &c A. Mosons the
following Resolutions were UNANIMOUSLY
adopted and now form a part of the
records Of the Lodge.
| "WHEREAs our esteemed friend and
Brother Joseph A. Slossen died at his

September 21st 1874.
| Be it therefore Resolved, by Kenosha
Lodge No AZ, F. &. A. M that in the
death of Brother Slossen we fully realize
that this Lodge has lost one of its mos.
esteemed and worthy brother.
| Resol0ed, That in the daily life OF
Brother Slossen we realised to the fullest
extent our ideal Of a true and worthy
mason, not only IN the discharge of his
duties to the Lodge and the fraternity
but to the world at large, being 'urteous
aud gentlemanly in his bearing honest
and upright in his dealings. and kind and
charitable to all.
ResoLved, That we feel more keenly the
death of Brother Slossen from the fact Of
his being taken SO suddenly from our
midst IN the prime Of life, IN the full
vigor of manhood. in the midst of h,s
usefulness that his death has created
void in the business circle Of this cit,
not easily filled.
Resoloed, That while we realize that
words can avail nothing in assnagng h.
grief OF his wife and family, or healing
their wounded hearts, still we wish t.
assure them OF our sincere and heartfelt
sympathy In this the hour of their sff1Ic
llon.
Res0lged That these resolutions b.
spread on record in the books If tins

DIE o..

At Silver City, New Mexico, on the Sd October,
1874, George r. Derbyshire {, aged 56year.
| To say nothing Of the sorrow that this sad news
has brought to the hearth and home Of he widow
and iatheress children, as well as other near and
dear relatives, the intelligence has been received
with uniegned regret by a large number OF friends
and neighbors in this county.
Only la e last Spring Mr.. D. left his home in
Peasant Prai.Ie in perfect health. Il was the
selected by him on his first ENGRAVING here In
1886. He came with his father Christopher Derby
SHIRE among numerous brothers and sisters. Hav-
ing been elected by the stockholders superinten-
dent of the Wi sconsn Silver City Mining Co., he
left his pleasant home and repaired to that distant
place and entered upon his uies, Here he pros
ecuted the business with as much earnestness,
zeal and fidelity he exhibited on his farm,
until few days since when he struck down
with that fatal disease, Typhoid Fever, and sur
vived only ten days.
To eulogise the dead is a privilege perhaps too
| often abused but in this instance all who knew
Mr.. d. can testify to his quiet and unobtrasive
anners, his kindness of heart, his willingness to
he'll others that needed assistance, and his stead.
fast integrity. de was man that loved his home,
his friends and all enterprises that improved soc4-
ETY. and the general good. Few leave more friends
and better record behind him when summoned
away from earth. His faults, if any, were few, and
he never had an enemy. Patient and industrious
through ife he toiled on, and the saddest of all is
that he should die in a distant land. But death is
everywhere-at home and abroad, and all must
yield to the great destroyer.

Hon. c. G. WILLIAMS addressed
large assembly on Tuesday evening
at Simmons Hall on the political is
sues of the day. He showed that
there were but two great national
political pArties-the Republican
and the Democratic-that the Re-
publican party were the originators
and the Democratic party the oppo-
sers of all the great reform measures
of the day, and that they had been
carried into practical operation as far
as the Republican party had the pow
er TO do it. He showed what the
action and votes of the two parties
had been on the Civil Rights bill and
the Interstate, or Cheap Transpor-
tation bill. Nearly all the Republi-
cans voted for them and nearly all
the Democrats voted against them.
The statement Of the votes of the
two parties had telling effect on the
vast audience. Several other subjects
were discussed briefly, among which
was the Harbor Appropriation bill.
Notwithstanding Mr.. Williams
hoarseness from much speaking he
held the strict attention of his large
audience for an hour and half, and
after he closed it was frequently said
that it was very able and good adj
dress.

BURGLARY.-The Clothing Store
OF M. Craney & Son on Main Street
was broken into last Monday night
and goods to the amount of $500 to
800 stolen from it. Entrance was
made by breaking through a back
window opening into the front store,
and exit through the doors of back
adjoining building. The goods
stolen consisted Of four or five suits
of clothes, overcoats, pants, hats,
socks, skirts, shawls, &c. The bur-
glars made choice selection and
took the best Of goods. It seems
that in selecting the goods they acted
deliberately, and also in taking away
the goods till they were nearly all ia
ken and then went precipitately.
Some of the goods selected were left
in the passage cut and some hats
were left Between tie rear building
and the ally. There must have been
several engaged in the burglary, or
there must have been team in the
ally tor carrying away the stolen
goods, and something probably oc-
Cured to change the deliberate re-
treat of the burglars into a precipi-
tate flight.
Messrs. Craney and the authori.
! ties are on the lookout, out thus fal
there have been no arrests made
nor, so far as we know, any discov.
cries leading to the recovery of the
stolen goods.

And alter thinking for year,

Will vanish at your kiss.

Clarksville weekly chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1873-1890, 1874-06-20


In an article uponfhe crop pros poets
of the Western farmers, the st Louis
Republican says it does not recall a
Spring in period of a dozen years
that gave more cheerful promise Of
abundau nee than the present" 1t is
too early to make any predictions about
the Implanted, corn crop, bat of the
fruit, the growing wheat, and the con-
dition of the mea dowsf coniectures can
be made. The Republican continues !:
~Our accounts from nearlyall quarters
of the West represent the fruit of all
kinds as .uninjured, or but slightly in
jurea, and now beyond reasonable dan
ger of injury; and the prospect is that
we shall have peaches, cherries, pears
aud apples in abundance. The farmers
IN those counties of this State and H.
hnois where orchards are cultivated
for market purposes, are calculating
confidently on large fruit yield to
bring them supply of money In ad-
vance OF the field crops The growing
wheat, from all accounts, never looked
better in this State, and is nearly as
promising in Illinois. In many places
it is more than knee high, and on the
upiands unusually green, thick and
vigorous, with few of those bare patch
es that a severe winter makes in the
fields. 1t is not out of the way to say
that Missouri will yield third more
wheat this year than it did last. The
oats crop has been generally put in,
and promises well The profuse Spring
rains have been of great benefit to
meadows; the grass is thick and close
on the surface, aud the hay yield of
the West, one of the most important
and salea bic of crops, ought to be I'M
usually fine. The whole prospect for
farmers is most fattering, and if they
would look less to an unproductive
Congress sitting at Washington City
and more to their own fertile fields for
the supply of currency they need, they
would encounter less disappointment.

The Senate has decided against the
project known as the Fort St. Phillip S
canal, to cheaper and facilitate the
commerce of New Orleans We can
not see that the Jettie scheme prom
ises greater advantages, in the absence
of a sufficient fall to enable the cur
rent through the Jetties, to wash out,
or prevent the deposit of mud which
has ever obstruted the passage of deep
daft vessels out of, and into, the Gulf.
Both Houses of Congress are grossly
incompetent to dealwith the Mississip-
pi, whether to prevent its overflow or
deepen its channel at the mouth.
Competent engineers have decided that
levying, alone, cannot confne its food
tide within anything like reasonable
limits, and hence they advice a system
Of drainage, by divertiDg its surplus
waters, wherever practicable, into bay
Gus, lakes and the Gulf 1t is argued
that drainage and levying combined,
will not only protect the planta-
tons on both sides, but will make il
easy to reclaim millions of acres OF
swamp lands, and thus enhance meal
culably, the wealth of the country, and
p many times over, the amount ex-
pended.

Clarksville weekly chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1873-1890, 1874-06-20

As an appropriate sequel to the civil
rights bill, another has passed the Sen
tie to hush the voice of the press and
lrive its correspondents from Wash
ington, that the multifOrm villanies of
the government may not be exposed to
the public gaze. At the same time
the federal courts and officers are
clothed with the brutal powers Of the
[nqusition, with its pack of blood
hound spies and informers. If the
bill becomes a law, writ served upon
correspondent of a distant paper,
is all the preliminary needed to drag the
proprietors of that paper to Washing
ton, there to be tried bya mental judge
and a packed jury, upon some false
charge sustained by puUured witnesses.
Thus the earnfJ urgernautiS moving on,
crushing the liberties of people cor
