A FrTTING TESTIMONIAL.

A FRIENDS TRIBUTE TO MISS FLORA HARD
ING-THE FUNERAL AT CHARLESTON.
To the Editor Of The Sentinel:
SIR: AS the sudden and mysterious death
of Miss Flora Harding is exciting so much
comment and. attention from indianapolis
and other Journals, a line from one who has
known her long and well, may not be out OF
place at the present time. Flora Harding
was born and brought up in this city
charleston, Il.) Her father, George Hard
ing, ESQ.,, and her mother Mrs. Times Morris,
for reasons all their own, were divorced in
marriage in 1859. The care of the daughter
and one son devolved entirely upon the
mother. Her struggle was hard one in
those days. not only with poverty but with
that opprcbrium and ostracism which society
sees at to infiict
UPos ITS VICTIMS
az such times under like misfortunes. Miss
Hsrdiug's tastes were literary; books were
her companions, and teaching schools
labor she delighted in-was her occupation.
Thus Flora Inherited from her mother love
of learning. and from her father the points
OF ready writer. Her own productions
and her lifelong devotion to books and
study give evidence of the truth of this
statement. She was always old in judgment
and herself and mother were boon eompan-
IONS. She was, perhaps, from the force OF
circumstances. reserved and reticent
but her confidence once given, she was
sprightly and Communicative, always ex-
hibitiDg great powsr OF thought and judg-
ment of understanding. Her truthfulness
was proverbal. Later her mother married
Mr.. John Morris, and Flora engaged IN
teaching school here in Coles county. That
this terrible calamity should have come
upon her so suddenly, is a mystery unex-
plicable to those who have known her so
long and we'll We therefore hope and pray
that upon thorough and proper investiga-
ton the real facts in the case may come to
the surface. To her true friends il seems,
'.that all that is left of her now is the beau
tiful.r
HER FUNERAL
was largely attended at the residence of her
step-fstber, Mr.. John Morris, Saturday af-
ternocn at O'Clock, the Rev. Mr.. Bum, OF De-
catur, ILL.,. being the ofic ating clergyman.
His sermon was ono of marked abiii v
and particularly comforting to the grief
stricken and almost heart-broken
mother. The singers and pall-bearers were
mostly old classmates of the deceased.
Miss Aline Moore, the Misses Nesbir, Miss
Maggie G.. Vambers, Miss Helen Brigg

LETTER FROM COL. It. b. MURRAY.


McMNNYILLE, March %. lS74.-
Capt. J. NJ. Carnes., Dear Sir: You
misunderstood my conversation in rela-
ton to the action Of the Democratic
Committee with regard to the calling
of a convention. l said to you that |
had suggested to some of the commit
tee and other leading Democrats the
propriety Of letting the Democratic
people take i~nitiatory steps toward or
ganization, and that the suggestion had
found favor as far as / know. / also
gave it rs my opinion that that course
would be adopted by the committee. 1
farther said that conventions were un-
popular, and had been made more so in
the last canvass by President Johnson's
friends, charging that the party was
IN the hands of a ring, and the cOnven-
ton was packed by the committee. To
show how groundless the charge was, 1
stated that a portion of that commit
tee were ardent johnson men, and
quite a large majority if not all were
willing to deal out to him e~venhanded
justice. | believe every member of the
committee would have supported him
If he received the endorsement of the
party in convention. said farther that
l recognized in the johnson ranks as
good Democrats as were to be found In
the State and gave it as my opinion
that the Cheatham and johnson Dem
ocracy should meet in their county con-
ventions and harmonic their action.
/ furthermore gave it as my opinion
that all true Democrats would harmon
lei let alone by designing Office
seekers. Yours respectfully,

NN NAANaSO AnNCS
WASHINGTON, April 16.-There is
a good deal of gossip afloat here with
regard to impending Spanish complica-
tons, which may lead to a war with
that country. The resolutions pre-
sented IN the Senate to-day by Mr..
Carpenter for the recognition of the
Cubans, strengthens a belief that the
administration cOntemplates a change
OF front on this question. 1t is evil
dent, however, that such a change can
not take place while MIR. Fish remains
at the head of the State department,
and his early retirement is therefore
confidently predicted. The President
and his friends in the Senate and
HOuse-Messrs. Morton, Carpenter.
Butler and others-are said to be par
ties to plot, as the story goes, to in
volve this country in a wal with Spain,
believing that only a successful foreign
wal could secure to the Republi-
can party a further lease of
power. As its overthrow in 1876 now
seems imminent, measures are being
taken 10 pave the way for a war which
will take public attention from the cor
ruptlons of the present administration,
and gave a feverish impulse to bust
ness.
In this connection, the fact is recalled
that two elaborate articles, attributed
to Ben. Butler, have recently appeared
IN a Washington paper, in which the
recognition of the Cuban republic is
urged, and now Is declared to be the
opportune moment. One of the arti-
cles concludes as follows: ave would
impress upon Congress the ACCESSIBILITY
OF their resolving upon the immediate
recognition of the independence of the
Cuban republic and authorization of
the President TO negotiate a commerce
treaty with it. 1t may be inferred
that the President will lose no time
effect to such a resolve"
