A Beecheristic Priest.

Protestant clergymen have, for

of the mag. business, but it chan
ces that a Catholic priest is the vic

Louis quite a sensation in the persons
of a vonng lady from St. Gencvieve
county, III company with Father
Stem, as her protector. The young
lady's destination was one of the city
converts. The officers of the boat
tell the following story: During the
trip the steward discovered that the
reverend father and his charge were
occupying the same state-room. lie

Death Of Ralsten.

San Francisco, Aug. -3O.-At the
funeral of Ralston to day were the
most imposing obsequies ever wit
messed in this city. Services were
conducted at Colony church, which
was crowded TO its utmost capacity,
and decorated with flowers and
floral wreaths. A concourse of cit
liens numbering probably 10000
marched around the church. After
the services at the church the pro-
cession consisted of q battalion of
cavalry, three regiments of infantry,
a battery af artillery and citizens
and the clerks of the bank of Cali
fornia, regents and families the uni.
versal members of the chamber of
commerce. San Francisco stock ex-
change, members and friends of the
family, including officers and en-
ployes Of the manufacturing con-
Germs in which the deceased had
been interested and concerned, and
citizens numbering thousands
brought up the rear. The services
at the cemetry were conducted &C
cording to rites Of the Odd Fellows.
The streets an route of the process
sion were lined With people, and a
great many gathered at the Gem.

Prairie Church.

Last Sunday morning Bro. Quarles call
ed for US, and getting into his buggy we
had a very pleasant ride out to Prairie
church. The road lay through the worst
part of the grasshopper country, but from
the looks of the heavy crops now on hand,
no one would think the hoppers had done
any harm. Arriving at the church we
found a goodiy number OF the bone and
sinew, as well as beauty and chivalry of
the :neighborhood, gathered together
to hear the ''old, old story of
Jesus n his love.' The sermon was
deeply interesting, and not a word was
allowed to escape the audience. At the
close OF the sermon an election for Elder
and DeacOns was held. George Green
was nearly unanimously chosen Elder
and Camilus Barnett and David Lyon
were chosen as Deacons. They will be
installed and enter upon the duties of their
offices to- morrow, after which there will
be communion services. The singing at
Prairie Church Is the best we have ever
heard in a country church. Good singing
and good sermons will surely Induce the
people TO turn out and build up a large
congregation there. We hope so, at least.

Houser House.

The Houser boys. who made their es-
cape from the chain gang in this city three
or four weeks ago, are part of a large
family who live some eight or nine miles
southeast of town. There were eight or
nine men. two boys and three or four
women and girls, and they all occupied a
little shanty about sixteen feet square
How they managed tn make a living
nobody knew, but the nelghbors have moi
regarded them with very trusttul ewes.
AT one time, we are informed, a move
ment was on foot to send a committee to
invite them to leave the neighborhood
but the plan was not carried out.
One day last week after the robbery Of
Col. Young, o Of the neighbors went
over to this shanty, thinking the los,
property would be found there, but the
mansion was tenantless. This made sus-
picion stronger, and II party was sent oul
to overtake the fugitives and make =
search. We don't know whether thu
whole family was searched Of not, but
some OF them were. The watch was moi
found, aud the party told the Housert
that they could 60 on. But the Housers
did not want to 90 on. One of them ever
went PACK into the old neighborhood,
and gave out word that he had com back
for revenge. At last accounts he had no,

stances. we are disposed to think, he will
find it more profitable to leave vengeance

ANDREW JOHNSON'S ESTATE.
No Will or Insurance Policy Yet
[ErOm the Knoxville Chronicle

From the Knoxville Chronicle
From those conversant with ex-
President Johnson's private affairs
we learn that it is not known as vet
that he made a will previous to his
death, or rather that any such docu-
ment is now in existence. 1t is be-
loved that he wrote more than one,
but 1t does not appear that one of
them is in force. 1t is known that
he incurred a heavy loss from the
failure ofJsy Cooke, and it is pos
sibIy that this change in his estate
made it necessary that he should
change any will he had made pre-
vlous to that time, and it is prob
able that he eve made a will after
wards, owing to the uncertainty as
to what his actual losses would be,
Those who have the custody of his
property and papers know nothing
of the existence of IN insurance poll
icy on Mr.. Johnson's life, and they
do not believe that he had any such
policy. Mr.. Johnson's estate was not
large, but sufficient to keep his fam
lily above want. His manner Of liv.
ing was simple and economical, and
his family, no doubt, learned the
same lesson from him that he pa
tised all through life.
