IN MENTORIAM.

WILEY-Died in Memphis, on the evening
of the 18th instant, at 20 minutes TO o'clock,
after a lingering illness, Mrs. CAROLINE F.
HELEN WILEY, aged 3S years, II months and
rs days.
The deceased was born in Caskaskia, Illl-
nois. At the age of seven years her parents
settled in Memphis, where the whole of her
life was passed, with the exception Of few
years spent in her native State during the
war. On the Sth of June, 1854, she was united
in marriage TO Mr.. Charles z. Wiley. Thls
proved very happy union; for she gave TO
her husband the unselfish devotion OF a low
ing and faithful heart, which, being appre-
ciated and reciprOcated by him, their lives
blended harmoniOusly, and peace ana haPpl-
ness reigned in the quiet household.
In the spring of 1868 she united win the
First Cumberland Presbyterian Church In
this city, in the communion Of which she
lived an acceptable and consistent memOer
TO the hour of her death, exemplify ing ever
in her life and conduct the pure principles OF
our holy religion. AS to the precise time when
she gave her heart to God, we are not in
formed; probably in early life; for from her
early glTlhOOd her mind seemed to have re-
lgious bent. In her last illness, which was
lingering ltOr she was an invalid for two
years, all the christian grsces seemed to have
grown to perfection. such faith and love,
such gentleness and meekness, such patience
and resignation, have rarely been witnessed.
Her death was a sublime testimony in favor
of the power OF faith in Christ to comfort and
sustain the soul in this last fearful struggle So
glories of the invisible world, that she was
lifted above care and concern for things pres
ent, and earnestly desired to depart, and to
be with Christ" She was frequently heard to
say, 81 desire TO go just nOw," and TO pray,
LORD Jesus receive my spirit a few hours
before her death, after her pastor and several
friends had prayed with her, she requested
him and her husband and children, and all
her friends, to meet her in heaven. Her last
words, addressed to her sister, were: ''I am so
thirsty; give me, sister, little water; only a
few drops, for very soon L shall drink gObletS
Of water from the river OF He. On, how beau
uful the shore OF that river appears! What
beautiful pebbles. What a precious time l
shall have, ga herring those pebbles with Ell
and Laura" These are two lambs OF hers
whom the Good Shepherd had taken 10 the
heavenly fold She leaves a husband and
four children and many relatives and friends
to mourn her loss. And alas, how irrepara OHs
the loss! But, stricken ones your loss is her
everlasting gain. Let this thought console
you. And may God help you to comply with
her dying request, and meet her in heaven.
FRIEND.

4 Delegation Of Ames'S Officials in

into the Governmental Ear.
4 Tale that TaperS Mostly at the Small
End-COnyiction Of FalsehOOd Out
Of their Own Mouth.
A Further Conference 10 be Had-More
About Sheriff Harney's TclcgramS
About the Recent Troubles,

WASHINGTON, September l5-The
attorney general was visited to-day by
delegation representing the Republi-
can voters oil Mississippi, and cor siFting
OF United States Senator Bruce. VIM,
u. Buchanan, eX-shsTiif OF Marshall
county; A. X Howe, ex- member OF con-
gress; Jas. Hill, secretary Of state; A.
warner, chairman OF the Republican
executive committee, ard JnO. b. Ray
mond, ecItor Of the Mississippi Pilot.
lhe Delegation called to explain the sit
1@tion OF affairs In their State, aud as
serted that, owing 10 white-lesgde or
gsniEstiOns which are very general
throughout the State, the Republican
voters are not able at all times to exer-
cise their political rights. Although the
Republican party, which is composed of
the entire colored element, with COM
paratively few white men, is largely in
excess in point Of number, yet, owing
to the lack Of organic alton, they are ever
at the mercy of the hostile organizations
of the opponents, who by force Of arms
and riOtous demonstrations generally
refuse to allow Republican voters to as
semble at political meetings, to register
at proper places Of registration, or TO
vote upon election days. Upon the sub
ject of disturbances at the present
time, the delegation was united in
the admission that none existed. Their
political meeting had been broken up,
and there was, they asserted, no reason
for any further disturbance. What they
lted was that there was always
danger OF serious difficulties unless the
State government, which is utterly un-
able to give them protection, shall have
assistance from the general government.
In fact the State government could uJ
be carried on without the aid of the
United States. The delegation expressed
the opinion that a recent and unpub-
lished letter from the attOrney-general
TO Governor Ames, referring entirely to
these troubles, and the inability OF the
State government to prevent them,
would, If published, have had a favor
able effect upon the advlcs Of the attor-
The delegation will return
to Mississippi and confer further with
the governor and ascertain what they
cen 90 in their own support. A report
Of the result Of this conference is ex-
pected and may probably be made the
subject for consideration at an early cab
met meeting.

Ohio Politics.

COLUMBUS, September 15.-In re-
sponse to request from committee
OF the State bar association, the State
executive committees Of both political
parties have issued a circular letter to
the committees of the various counties,
declaring that as the general assembly,
by unanimous vote, adopted the resolu-
ton authorizing the submission Of the
amendment to the State constitution
providing for commission to DISPOSE of
the unfinished business before the su-
preme court it cannot be considered a
partisan matter. The circular states that
the judges Of the supreme court believe
the proposed measure to be of vital i'm
poItance to remedy the delay of the
present system, which amounts to a
practical denial ofjustice. In view Of the
fact that there seems to te no opposition
to the amendment, the committee sug-
gest that the tickets of both parties be
printed, saying on them simply the
words "FOr the commission" This
will leave all opposed to the amendment
free to express their disspproval by
striking out the words suggested.

New YORK, September 15.-PIesi-
dent Jewett, Of the Erie railroad, to-day
received by cable from the bond and
shareholders in England q proposition
to issue fifty per cent. more Of common
stock, one new share for every two now,
which means that suppOsing the price Of
twenty-five dollars i be obtained, an
amount OF ten mi lion dollars cash will
0e secured. IL this arrangement can be
effected, 1t is proposed to narrow gauge
the line, including the purchase OF
large amount of new locomotive stock,

ID complete the steel railing of the main
line and to open up the coal lines; to
complete the double track on the main
line, improve sidiDgs, stations, etc,
alter the grading and curves to such an
extent as will be attended with econ
omical advantages and add 10 the roll
ing stock. The total amount to be
expended in these Improvements is
eighteen million dOllars, tn whole to be
expended over the next two years, dur.
ing which period the new shares would
be paid up by half-yearly instalments,
and the capital Of the company would
then consist OF seveniy.One mill.
ION dollars Of bonds, and ore
one hundred and seventeen million dol
lars Of ordinary shares. Prior interest
charge at seven per cent. would be five
million dollars, and rentals, at most,
one million dollars; total, six million
dollars, with q line flushed and
equipped. As it is proposed working
expenses should be bought down to
sixty per cent, and traffic within three
years from now should be at least tWen-
ty-four million dollars per snnum,
affording a net revenue of nine million
six hundred thousand dollars per snnum,
meeting all bond and preference liabili-
ties and leaving three per cent. on Or
dinary shares.
