The Closing Details.

The remains of Caroline Gest were
taken in charge by the brother law and
sister OF deceased, yesterday, and conveyed
TO De Witt for in:erment. The grief of the
lady on viewing the corpse of her erring
and heart broken sister, moved all who
witnessed the scene to tears,
Caroline Gest was not moneyless girl.
Had she chosen she could have gone to
some distant place. and been secure from
disgrace on account of evidences of her
fall She owned farm of eighty acres
near Sabula and had eight hundred dollars
on deposit in one of the Savings Banks of
this city. Had she not idolized Wegener,
and been driven to despair by his
desertion she would not have killed herself.
As for Wegener there were various re-
ports yesterday concerning his movements.
1t was stated that he returned Wednesday
evening, appeared at Mr. Wuuder's place,
was told of the fate of Caroline. and went
away aud has not been seen since. But
persons who were at the hall all night
did net see him. 1t is likely that he went
to Mr.. Evers, at Hickory Grove, on Tues
day and married Emile Evers, to whom be
had been engaged for two years. He told
an acquaintance before he left, that if he
got into any deeper trouble by bis conduct
that he would shoot himself. At any rate
it is not likely he will return to Dayeu-
port-that would be the worst thing for
himself that be could do. ~Gax. y4h.

Ii5;ne's Sneech and its Purpose,

Those who attribute Mr. Blaine's fiery
speech to a sudden impulse Of patriotic
indisu4tion, do not know the man or un-
dcystanl the line Of policy which that
speech inaugurates. Blaines patriotism
is like the granite of his native hills-hrm
enough, perhaps, but constitutionally cold
and he is the last person in the world to
permit emotion of any sort to run away
with his judgment He cares little for
Jefferson Davis and still less fer Amer
sonviile, and the rhetorical wrath poured
out on both was carefully prepared and
bottled up long ago, and has been used
just at the time and just in the way origi-
naly intended. Its object is plain-to
renew the passions and prejudices of the
north, and to annoy and provoke the south.
More, however, is expected from the lat
| ter than from the former. The old south
feru element is strong in the house, and the
plan Is to charge the leaders of the defunct
confederacy with all the crimes in the cal
ender, and thereby compel this element
to come to the front, lose its temper, and
say things which had much better be lef,
unsaid. Blaine expects to reap more
benefit from the replies to his speech than
| from the speech itself. In other words
he hoped to make the ex- confederates SC
angry that they will sink all discretion and
return the attack in kind. Butler played
similar game at the last session, and
found one man, John Young Brown, Of
Kentucky, foolish enough to be caught by
it. In the present Instance, though the
stakes are much larger and the cards more
skillfully handled, the plans and the pur
poses are the same-,S Louis RepubE

Rural Grange.

To the Editor of The Argus
/ had the pleasure of being present at
the installation of the officers of Rural
Grange No. 375, which was held at the
new town hall last evening. The meeting
was an open one and was largely attended
by those outside the order as we'll as from
other oranges.
After the installation bounteous repast
was served by the ladies, to which ali did
ample justice. Excellent music was
provided and all appeared to enjoy them
selves, many tripping the light fantastic
toe" until the wee sma' hours did arrive.
1t was an occasion long to be remembered
by those so fortunate as to be present.
Rural may well be proud of her grange
and of her new town hall.

True Flavoring Extracts and Cream
