DIED. Died Suddenly In Chicago, on
the 18th inst. John p. Farrar, recently q
citizen of this place, age 90 years.
Thus, without warning, he leaves be-
loved family in the depths Of sorrow, and
business of high promise, without a
head-another impressive fact regarding
the uncertainty Of life and our liability to
step into the grave just when most san
guine of prosperity and length of days.
Last Wednesday afternoon we noticed
young blood setting his watch by the
painted sign in front Of R. H. Frazee's
Jewelry Store
A subscriber to paper died few days
ago, leaving four years subscription un-
paid. The editor appeared at the grave
when the lid was being screwed down
the last time, and put in the coffin palm
leaf-fan, linen coat, and thermometer,
which is only used in warm climates.

The following poem is very applicable
to some Of the business mcn Of To.cdo:
Our town must grow and trade increase,
Ey nerve and enterprise,
And they who'd live must have the pluck
70 risk and advertise.
There. are some men III our town
Who will not advertise;
Good customers pass by their doors
The CHEEKY cash likewise.
And when they post their books at night,
They're the saddest men IN town,
And ever and anon they moan:
'.ThiS town is rOirr DOWN.

Is the Pope Going TO the United
states?


The correspondent of the De6dts IN
Rome, writes thus:
@The appointment of an American Car
dinal is an act more important than has
been generally supposed. At the same
time the Pope nominated considerable
number of Bishops for the United States
The prelate who carries to Monsigneur
McCloskey his baretta will not perform a
mere act of ceremony; he is charged with
a most important mission. The Holy See
has firmly resolved to transport itself to
the United States should the stay in Rome
become insupportable. 1t knows well
that neither France nor Austria could
give it an asylum without an almost GER
tain risk of war with Germany. 1t is
doubtful whether England would main
tain the offer she once made Of the Island
of Malta, and Spain is too much disturbed
for the Pope to think seriously of refuge
there, at least under existing circumstances.
We must not forget that the Saint Siege
has taken the precaution to create con-
siderable reserve fund, which would be by
no means useless in the United States.
This reserve does not count hundreds of
millions, as som papers, unused to calcu-
late, are pleased to declare, but it amounts
to over $40, 200, 900 (fs, s,oOo, ,OOO,) and in
creases almost daily"
1 have often heard this idea broached
in Paris by Ultramontanes, and there is
every reason to believe the De6ats' cor
respondent to be well-informed. 1t re-
mains only to learn how the statesmen of
America will receive the notion. The
same obvious reasons which have made
England tacitly withdraw her profered
hospitality, will carry their weight even
over the Atlantic

wonderful Feat of Endurance.

At this moment, while the feat of Cap
tain Boyton in attempting to cross the
Channel in his life-dress, or close-ftting
canoe, is the subject of much conversa-
tion, it may not be uninteresting to call
to remembrance a long swim which was
most involuntarily essayed some forty
years ago. The hero of this adventure
was one of the crew of yawl of Var
mouth, and the powers of endurance dis
played by this man are certainly some
thing to be remembered. 1t was on the
9th November, 1885, that the yawl went
out to the assistance of brig showing
signals of distress, and in returning to the
shore with nine souls on board was taken
aback by tremendous squall when about
two miles off the Newark lightship, and
Immediately capsized. This happened
about $3.50 P. NJ, and in about fifteen min
utes the vessel and all the crew, save one,
disappeared. That one, named Samuel
Brock, managed to get hold of an old rush
horse-collar, which had been used as a
fender, and with the slight support thus
afforded, he was able with his knife to cut
away his oiled-cloth overalls and frock.
His other clothing he kept on him, partly
from inability to disencumber himself of
it, and also because he feared he might
become entangled in it and thus be
drowned. The horse-collar he kept by
him for time, but finding it retarded his
progress he threw it aside, and struck out
for the Winterton High Light. Soon he
was driven out of sight of this light by
the food and nothing remained for him to
steer by but two stars which he had
noticed, and which shortly afterwards
became obscured by clouds, leaving him
battling on the waters in utter darkness.
Fatigue aud hopelessness were weighing
heavily upon him when the moon shone
forth, and, urged to fresh endeavors, he
succeeded in freeing himself of his shoes
and made for the land, swimming over
the Cross-sands ridge for Lowestoft High
Light, going with the food past the buoy
of ST. Nicholas Sand and making for the
Gateway. But the strength of the tide
took him westward, and by the increasing
roar he knew he was nearing Corton Sand,
where a tremendous sea was running,
through which he actually passed, though
nearly exhausting the little life still left in
him. Here he sighted vessel, but when
within two hundred yards of her he was
caught by the ebb and was fast drifting
away. His despairing cries, however,

LESSONS OF THE SITUATION FOR AMERICANS
"A LETTER FROM Ex-sECRETARY NC
CULLoCH.

Few countries have ever been in q
worse condition than France appeared to
be in at the close of the late war with
Germany. Her armies had been routed !;
her Emperor had become fugitive; her
strongholds, such as Strasburg and Metz,
had been captured; Paris, starved into
submission, had been entered by the Ger
man forces. Some of her most fertile and
popular districts had been so devastated
that agents of contributors in Great Brit
ain and the United States had been sent
into them to supply their unfortunate in
habitants with food and clothing, farming
implements, and seeds for the next years
crop; and as if all these unfortunates had
not filed her bitter cup, it had been filled
to overhowing by bloody contest
Frenchmen against Frenchmen-for the
possession and control of Paris. Her
beautiful Capital had been again besieged,
not by foreigners, but by her own people,
the monuments of her glory had been de-
stroyed, not by the Germans, but by those
who shared in the national honor of the
achievements which these monuments com.
memorated. By this civil war, SO unnat-
ural and so deplorable, the sympathy of
other nations, excited in her behalf as de-
feat followed defeat in her contest with
the Germans, had been turned into indif-
ference, if not into disgust, and so help
less had she become that submission to
the demands of the conqueror was her
only alternative. What those demands
were, the world knows-the cession of
two of her beautiful and productive prov
inces, and the payment ofa thousand mil
lions of dollars to idemnify Germany for
the expenses of the war. Never before
had great and powerful nation been so
speedily and thoroughly mastered rarely,
if ever, had a brave and proud people
been compelled to conclude hostilities
with so disastrous results With Gov
ernment provisional only; with demora-
lized people; with an empty treasury, an
immense debt, to be nearly doubled by
the expenditures of single year Gnclud-
ing the indemnify this great nation,
heretofore one of the most powerful and
influential in Europe, seemed to be on the

reached those on board, who lowered q
boat and ultimately picked him up. This
happened at halfpast one A. NJ, on the 7th
of November, when Brock had been seven
hours struggling in heavy sea at night,
with bleak northerly wind, during which
time he had gone some fourteen miles.
Such wonderful endurance on the part OF
a seamen, heavily clothed, must in all fair
ness be said to surpass the recent attempt
of crossing the Channel safely corked up
in an india-rubber bottle.
