CLERGY 1MBR0GLIO.-It appears that a
question of "right and propTiety" has arisen
between Rev. John T. Craig, OF the High
street Baptist Church, and the Rev. Father
Dausch, of st. Vincent's Roman Catholic
CHURCH, in regard to the burial of Annie Nc
DonneIl, IA years old, who on Monday last
was burned to death by a coal oil accident
at No. 56 Albemarle street. She was buried
according to the rites of the Catholic church
an q Mr.. Craig made statement from his
pulpit yesterday 10 reference to the matter
claiming that the girl had attended his Sun
day school for years, and, having been quite
regular in attendance at church service, he
never dreamt, he said, OF any ''prior claim
his Catholic neighbors of st. Nincent's would
make upon her dying moments. He (Mr.
Craig had called upon the girl at her urgent
request, and heard from her dying lips her
hope In salvation. Father Dausch, he said,
was however sent for by some jealous
friends, not relatives, of the family, "and in
the course OF his duty" came, and having
asked her "DO you wish to die Catholic?p
and claiming that she so signified ne admin
istered the rites OF his church to her and in
sisted on burying her, despite, continued
Mr.. Craig. the protestations OF her mother,
who was lying in q most delicate state of
health. Mr.. Craig stated that he had called
on Father Dausch in reference to the matter,
a nd the father said he attended the girl AT
her request, and as she wanted to die a

rites OF that church, he had simply carried

DEATH OF MISER--William Riley, the

ing jug full of money, was known as a
miser, and among the 81 ,l70.75 in specie that
were found after his death was the first piece
OF money ne ever owned-a dime. The cause
Of his death was an injury he received
week before he died by falling through the
railroad bridge over Pohick run. 1t was
known by his neighbors that he had money
concealed somewhere, for he Sold them so,
and said that none of his kinsfOlk should
have 1t. He selected his burying place, and
as IL was nowhere rear that OF any other
member of his family, IL was supposed, and
as II turned out rightly, that he wanted to
be put close 10 his treasure so as to guard II,
and search resulted in finding IL a short
dtstapce from his grave. His treasure was
buried in jug, from which the mouth had
teen knocked of, and the hole in il covered
by the half of a soldiers canteen, ant was

deliberate falsehood.
Every voter who desires the preservation
of honesty in the City Government, strict
and economical expenditure of the city mon

Grant can forgive, but forget he never
can. He was dropped from the party with

forgiven it he has never forgotten It. He

1t is singular fact that the Republican
party always mentions the names of Hayes
in connection with Reform, and yet at the
same time they say the Republican Admin

The remark of DR.. MaxMell in his speech
at New Castle on Saturday, that govern
ment with Tilden as President and Thomas
+. Bayard as Secretary of State, would en-
sure honesty and reform, struck KEY note
