A Long Journey Ended.

TROY, June sly eSterday a son
of b. Young, residing in Brunswick,
near st. Mary's Cemetery, found the
body of man lying near a creek
running thro' the premises. lie was
about 35 years old; and on his person
was a watch which was running and
indicated 2:10 o'clock, showing that
he had been dead but short time. -
An empty vial was found beside him
on the grass; and another containing
laudanum was found in the stream.
This morning Coroner went to
Albany and obtained his trunk at
the Delavan House, upon examining
which he learned that his name was
l.. Peck, and had worked at Hamp-
ton, N. Y. A cigar box full of love
letters from a young lady, signing
herself Laura" postmarked Well
ington, Ohio, was among his effects.
Peck arrived in Albany on Saturday
morning from Cleveland.
AT Oberlein he became very inti-
mate with Laura, but afterwards he
supposed her to be untrue to him,
and forsook her. In diary kept by
him was written, Dec. 81, 1874, at 10
D. m: ain after years, should hap

over my profigate life, may repent
and say it was wrong. AS | sit here

of the three past months for world
of wonders. Laura loves me as may
never be loved again, but ! cannot
make her happy, even / would, for it
is against my principle. | have got

Queer Talk for Beecher.

The Jersey City Journal says :
Mr.. Beecher.is reported as saying
in his sermon last Sunday in Ply
mouth church
" Alas that should say SO, but
I think that there are persons here
whose room would be better than
their company. Persons that have
been here for years without doing
them any good. Who they are /
don't know; God knows who they
are, / must say that there are per-
sons here who have long outlived
my power of doing them good. /
may do them little good in an
Intellectual way, but in respect to
that which is the vitality of men.
in That regard ! fear they are past
my ministry"
That is a queer sort Of talk for a
gospel one Does Mr.. Beecher
mean to say that particularly
wicked or hardened sinners ought
to stay away from church ? 1t APP
pears to us that they are the par
ties of all others to whom be should
be glad to preach, because they
stand in most need of exhortation
And how does Mr.. Beecher know
that any one has outlived his pow
er to do him him good, or is be-
yond being reached by the pure
gospel which OF course he breaches.
And if, as he says, he don't know
who these incorrigibles are, Row
does he know that they are there
at all? It appears to us that in his
anxiety to hit somebody back
handed blow, Mr.. Beecher allowed
his wits to go wool-gathering.

He Didn't Believe In Alver.
Using.

No, he said he didn't believe in
advertising in the newspapers. 49,
Didn't think it did him any good;
money thrown away.
But don't you advertise IN any
way p We asked.
oh, yes, he replied. / spend q
good deal Of money in advertis-
ing. Now, here is a thing ] have
invested in to-day. IT is tooth:
pick with my name and business
stamped on it. / have paid man
fifty dollars to have my business
card stamped on every tooth-pick
used at the hotels in this city for
one year.
How does he manage p
oh, easy enough. He keeps an
agent stationed at each hotel day
and night, furnished with stamp,
and when man steps up to take
a tooth-pick he dexterously stamps
one for him, and there is OH the
tootn-pick.

Good Example for Business
Men.

In a notice Of the death of John
Harper, one of the Harper broth
ers, it was said:
After Mr.. Harper had left his
Office for the day and retired to his
home on Fifth avenue, he would
give up all thought of business
matters and would refuse to con-
verse on business affairs" That
fact should be painted in white let
tiers on black background, and
framed in gilt and hung over the
desk of every business man in the
land. And over the portals of ev-
cry business mans home should
be the warning to those who would
thrust business into that house -
"No business transacted here. -
You cannot throw stone into a
crowded street that you will not
hit man broken in body, if not
mind, early in life, through the
wear and tear of business, which
has been permitted to fellow their
every step from morning to night,
and even the hours which should
be devoted to sleep. This very day,
stopping at the post office, one gen.
tlefnan could not wait the getting
out of the post-office corridor be-
fore he must begin to open his
mail, while another gentleman
was passing from the Office, and
in the street was breaking the en-
velopes and reading the enclosures.
Not even the short walk to his
place Of business, on a pleasant
day, was permitted free from bus
ness cogitations. Two-thirds of our
business men reserve until evening
the most taxing part Of their days
operations, and pass their even
ings, even to the small hours, in
devising plans for the next days
work. or course they break down
before they have reached the me-
ridian of their lives, while Har-
per, who drives business care from
him as he turns from his place of
business, devoting the time not
necessary for sleep to recreation,
and Vanderbilt, who in the even
ing calls for his game of whist, -
reach good old ages, Sound in body
and mind.

A PUNKINHEAD, :.
Groceries and Things.

L am informed he continued,
that four hundred thousand eight
hundred and seventy-two tooth
picks are used by the Cincinnati
hotels every year, which Is equal
to that many business cards of
mine distributed to the public. -
Two. fifty dollars couldn't buy that
number of business cards and in
sure their distribution
Certainly not. But this inscrip-
ton On the tooth-picks must be
very small | don't see how it can
| be read
Nothing easier, my dear sir; you
see each agent carries small mi
croscope to assist people in max
ing it out. But that isn't the only
advertising plan ] am in with
You see this piece of rag with my
card printed on it? Yes; well, you
probably couldn't guess what it Is
for. I'll tell you. It's for doing
up sore finger.
What has sore finger got to do
with advertis;ng?'
Everything, my dear sir, every
thing. There are over million
OF sore fingers in America every
year. At a very moderate expense
an advertising firm in Philadel-
phia prints my card on rags like
these and furnishes them to VIC
Tins of sore fingers free of charge,
so they will use them In prefer
ence to all others. A million of
these rags are sent to all parts of
the United States, and / am only
required to pay $3.50 for the privi-
lege of having my name put upon
Them
And you paid it?'
Certainly / did had lin or
der to prevent any other man from
getting the chance ahead of me-
"A sore finger, then, you consid-
er a better advertising medium
than an established and popular
newspaper
We'll yes, ia this case. Been ira
Yelling lately?'
Yes made trip to Minnesota
and Iowa, not long ago.
Then you must have seen my
business earl printed In black let
tiers on white board, and nailed
to the telegraph poles?'
We hadn't seen anything of the
kind.
Singular if you didn't. A man
came along last fall and collected
400 of me for mailing such board
on every telegraph pole in the u.
States. This was his contract, and
| paid him the money on his afii-
davit that the work was DONE.
But perhaps you wasn't noticing
telegraph poles. Ne, / don't be-
lieve / will put my advertisement
in your paper this week. You see
/ am advertising a good deal al
ready
Just then man came in and col
lected a bill for sticking s'Punkin-
heads" carbon every balloon that
went up during 1874. and effected
new contract for 1875, with what
he called the diving bell supple
ment,' agreeing to attach a card
to all diving bells that go down in
1875, without extra charge, conn
pliment, as he said, to their regu-
lar advertisers.
When we left, another advertis-
ing agent was laying before Pun
kinhead the great advantage of in
vesting in patent stamp, to be
attached to the seats of boys pants
when they go skating. When they
get a fall, his name and business
twill be neatly stamped upon the
Ice, SO that all who skate may see
and read 1t.
When 1t comes to judicious adj
vertising, the race ofPunkinheads
is very numerous.

1t is claimed by the officials of the
Interior Department that the late
visit of the Indian delegations to
Washington was not altogether a
failure, in that the Indians were con-
WINGED that the Government was not
bound by any treaty heretofore made
to feed or clothe them any longer and
that whatever they may hereafter re-
ceiye in that way will be a mere gra-
tuity ON the part of the Government.
With regard to the Black Hillsques-
ton, it is claimed that all that was
desired at this time was accomplish
ed, and the Indians have gone home
thoroughly convinced that it will be
utterly useless to resist the pressure
of the white emigrants.

The Reecher Jury.

THEY COME INTO COURT AND REPORT NO PROSPECT
OF AonEEMENT-THH LOADER BUSINESS.
The jury in tho Tilton-Beecher case yesterday
informed Judge Nelson that they could notagree
and all but one (Taylor) desired to be dischar-
ged. A consultation Of the counsel was had
upon the propriety Of Informing them Of the
confessions OF Price and Loader heated DIT
pute followed which resulted in nothing.
The jury were called into court, and
after stating that TIM differences which
divided them were upon several points OF
fact, including difference of opinion as to the
veracity OF Witnesses, they were sent back with
orders to communicate with the judge at
o'clock. At that hour they Uniformed him that
agreement was impossible, lut he sent them
word that he should keep them locked up for
the night, and at once adjourned court until IL
o'clock this morning, R sil
= When the LAWYERS were discussing the qneB-
tiop..of dischaIging the jury, Messrs. Beach and
Morris were very anxious for 1t, being apparent
ly fearful that the jury might agree. Mr. Evarts
said little but thought ii WAS matter which the
Court was entirely competent to take care of. 1t
was case which had taken very long time to
try. and would take a long time If tried again,
and the defendants counsel did not see why the
jury should not make q further effort to agree.
& Mr.. Sherman, in regard to the Loader business,
insisted that the fact that Price had confessed,
and that Loader was on trial for his crime,
should be communicated to the jury. He argued
that the jury had gone to their room with dis
torted and magnified idea OF tho character of
this new evidence, to which the counsel for the
plaintiff had given false Importance by offering
1t in court on plea to reopen the case. Mr..
Beach, however, would not agree that the jury
should be informe- of these facts. He said the
proposition was not to be entertained for mo-
ment.
The hearing in Leaders case was continued
yesterday and adjourned until next Wednesday,
Justice Riley refusing to admit him to bail. The
testimony Of J. M. Pearsall, a law clerk, as to
the manner in which the afldavits of Price and
Loader were manufactured, 80 seriously implica-
ted F. D. Moulton. that Che counsel for Mr..
.Beecher have already taken steps to indict him
for conspiracy as we'll as subornation Of perjury,
and will make application TO go before the next
Grand Jury. If Mr.. Moulton should return to
Brooklyn before the Grand Jury meets, he will
be arrested, and an examination be lad prelimi-
nary to action by the Grand Jury.

A SLIGHT STRUGGLE FOR THE OFFICES TO Bic
FILLED BY coUNon-NAmEs OF THE CANDY
DATES.
On Monday evening next, Council will meet in
special session to elect successors to several city
officers whose terms expire on that day, These
are City Solicitor, Street Commissioner, Clerk
Of the Market, weghmasters, &c. There are
several names mentioned in connection with the
successiona. all so far as we are able to learn
among the Republicans. The Democrats being
In minority are not pressing any men that we
have heard of. Those whose names have been
mentioned are az follows:
Street Commissioner-D. II. Coyle, tho present
incumbent, and Levi II. Springer.
Clerk of tho Market-Thomas Hawkins, the
present officer. G. B. Woodward, VIM. II. Bacon,
W. L. Alrchs, and Cornelius Fipps. A petition
was sent to Council last night, from numerous
butchers and farmers asking the appointment
of Joseph Pearson.
For City Solicitor no names are mentioned be-
sides that of VIM. O. Spruance, who is now hii-
ing the position with satisfaction and ability.
lie will most likely be re-elected unless he de-
ulines to serve.
The Weghmasters and wood corders will pro-
baby all be elected, unless some OF them de-
cline. We hear or no new names In connectlon
with these Offices.
