It was Jones that Wrote il,
From the Springfield K publican.

From the Springfield K publican.
The Jones-Grant memorapduu sounds
very Jonesy. He is fascinating man,
Iones-talks well-smokes a good deal,
and can tell II story better than Logan or
Carpenter or Butler. We should not be
surprised 1t it was Jones who goes into the
White House now without knocking.
From the Cincinnati Commercial.
Another Western Senator said he sup
posed hereafter it would be necessary for
Senators to consult Jones before voting for
or against any measure brought before
that body. He also remarked that he had
frequently conversed with Senator Jones
on the subject of the finances of the coun-
try, and heard that gentleman express
himself freely and unreseryedly, He was
struck with the similarity of the language
used during the conversation and certain
sentences in the President memorandum.
OF course it was quite possible Jones had
drawn his inspiration from the President,
with whom he is on intimate terms, and it
might be surmised quite the reverse.
From the indianapolis Sentinel.
President Grants platform for third
term is promulgated this morning, and will
be very apt to arouse considerable com
motion. You will observe that nearly ey-
cry word of the Presidents plan was ut
tered before by Mr. Greeley, and that be-
cause of that utterance he was unsafe. u
Now for divers panacea,
From the Chicago Tribune.
1t is an intelligent elaboration of Horace
Greeley's aphoriSm, that the way to re
sumo is to resume. The President may
not be able to induce the present Congress
to adopt his views but he is in position
by the exercise of his veto, to bring the
question before the people in simple form
and thus divest it of the complications with
which some of the compromise Congress
men desire to befog it. We are not SUR
but this would be the wisest plan,
From the n, Y Tribune.

when its Marion and Sumpter made glori-
Gus its name on the ensanguined fields OF
the Revolution, and Preston and Calhoun
in the Senate, reflected the lustre of long
line of statesmen. Alas the tables have
turned. The State is now negro pro
vince and her Senators are only known for
the open bribery and corruption by which
they obtained their seats, and her Repre-
sentatives as negroes, who vote as Boss
Butler or their malignant luminosity against
the white man may dictate-tit represen
tatives of fit constituency. "Ichabod

why should we complain because the

|ty,-who, recreant to their birth and race,
are striving with might and main to turn
the tables in Maryland.
Let us then bide our time with patience
and reliance on the God of nations, and
when the day and hour comes, arouse our
selves and crush these men, who, serpent
like, have crawled into the high places

The Difference.

The Washington papers are engaged in
the ignoble race of seeing which can out
do the other in fulsome praise of the Ring
and abuse of all who object to being rob-
bed by it. Just now the principal object
of their rancor is the venerable w. W.
Corcoran, because of the sensation created
by his statement lately published in the
Baltimore Sun. The Capital heartlessly
says, in speaking of this gentleman, that
s'first class funerals are now in order;
whilst the Star enters into an elaborate
and insidious comparison between him
and Boss Shepherd man of wax and
the man of whacks"-Mr. Corcoran's
father having been shoemaker, and the
Boss's father carpenter. 1t says, that if
Mr.. Corcoran has established that beauti~
full city for the -''Oak-Hill Cemetery
the Boss has beautifed the city of
Washington for the living; if Mr.. Corcoran
has established the Louise Home for ladies
in reduced circumstances-the Boss has
established large public works for mechan-
les and laboring men; if Mr.. Corcoran has
established the superb Corcoran Art Gal
lery-the Boss has beautifed and parked
the streets of the entire city. But there is
one difference in all this, which the Star
overlooks, in its sycophantic appreciation
of favors past and to come in the shape OF
advertisements from the Boss. All that

Died on the 9TH day of last January, after
several months of illness, LEONARD SMALL
WOOD ROBEI, in the 7+th year of his age.
He was the second child of Major TowNLEi
and ANNE RoBEy, and grandson of WILLIAM
MARBURY SMALLwoop. For long time before
his death he had been seeking more complete
preparation for that most solemn event which
be toresaw WAS inevitab bic and rapidly approach
ing, declaring his confidence in the truth that
Jesus would, according 10 His promises, have
mercy upon and save even the most unworthy
and sinful man, il ne but sincerely repent OF
his sins and believe with all his heart on Him.
And hen death did come it seemed to have no
terror for him. On the morning of the day OF
his death. he told his household that he would
die that day, and after the day had advanced,
he said he thought he was dying; but II was
not until about nine o clock III the evening
that his family became really alarmed. From
that time he sank rapidly, and breathed his last
without struggle or groan in few min
utes thereafter. W.

Died, in Port Tobacco, on Sunday, February
22nd. EDITH WILMER youngest and below
ed daughter of WILLIAM and MARY F. BOSWELL,
aged II years, months and days.
OF her may it truly be said, '.none knew her,
but to love her; none named her, but to praise y
Dedicated to God in early infancy, by holy bap-
tsm, she continued to live as Il consistent and
earnest Christian, and not quite two years ago,
openly ratified her baptismal VOWS and was add
mitted to the Holy Communion. In her death,
her bereaved family have lost d dutitul and af-
fectionate dau shter, kind, thoughtful ana
gentle sister, and the Church has lost faithful
and devoted member. 1t is very seldom that
such universal and sincere sympathy is felt by
an entire community, ITS that evlnced at the
funeral Of this lovely Christian child. The
simple trusting faith in God, which she show
ed in health, did not forsake her in sickness.
She did not fear death, and even while dying,
she said to the grlet-Strlcken friends around
her, Il am perfectly conscious and | am not
afraid why should you be? Do not weep"
MAY the dear mother who has trained this fair
flower 10 bloom in Paradise, find strength and
comfort from above, in this hour of trial. Per-
haps this atction was sent, to make us all
more thoughtful. and the memory of this Chris
tan life NAV serve us link to bind US all to
Christ.

For friends b, loved, no longer nigh,
Submissive still would reply,
'rhy viii be done.'f
The same fathers hand which led her to her
first Communion, sustained her bodily weak
ness at her last. As hand in hand with him,
she went to the altar two years ago, so on her
death bed, with her hand in his, did she receive
for the last time, the tokens OF her dear Saw
our 5 love. May God sustain and comfort this
devoted father. 1t is not wrong to weep for
her, tor our blessed Saviour wept for Lazarus;
out we do not sorrow those without hope,
for those who sleep in the Lord May the sor-
rowing sisters and brothers strive, so to live,
that in the resurrection of the just they may all
once more be a loving aud united family. May
they fully realize in this life, the truth of the
words which were sung at the funeral of their
dear sister:

Exempt from toll and strife;

At his residence in this county, on Monday
night last, of pneumonia, Mr.. ALFRED P.
WlLLETT. A few weeks since he possessed a
powerful and robust frame and constitution,
which bid fair for a long life of usefulness to
his family and the community. He was a thriv-
ing citizen, industrious almost to fault. Such
men, when they die, are decided loss to the
whole community.
