KRISE.-On the 18th inst. at Creagers-
town, Nd, after a short but painful ILL
Ecss, Bessie, daughter Of II. j. and Sa-
rah p. Krisc, aged 2years, 3 months and
90 days.
BY the death of little Bessie we are once
more reminded that "in the midst of life
we are in DEATH But few short weeks
ago she was enjoying the best of health
and spirits, with the promise of a long and
useful life before her, but now alas how
changed. All within her home which she
frightened with her presence is now sor-
row and darkness. Her kind and loving
father and her idolizing mother will no
longer he chccrcd by her childish prattle
and will listen in vain for the footsteps
that will never come. She now sleeps the
sleep that knows no waking until the
morning of the resurrection, when she will
be assigned to the right hand of Him,
whose son died that she might live. Fond
parents weep not for your little one; she
has been transplanted from earth to hcav-
en- where all is peace and happiness and
where sorrow cannot come. TO a mldcr
cline and purer air, and brighter skies,
and greener fields, and statlicr groves, and
clearer fountains, and daintier fruits, and
richer flowers, and swcetcr songs, in the
land of everlasting blessedness

dead. Let those who have friends buried
in the several grave yards so forth and

Or the argument that the city papers are
cheaper and better than the county papers
because they give more columns of reading
for the money. DO the city papers, it asks,

they say anything in regard to your own
county? Nothing. Do they contain no.
tees of your schools, churches, meetings,
improvements and hundreds of other local

ever say Il word calculated to draw attcn-

enterprise? Not word. And \ ct there
are men who take such contracted views Of
| the matter that unless they src getting as
many square inches of reading matter IN
their own paper as they do in II city paper,
they think they are not getting the worth
of their money. 1t reminds us Of Il person
who took the largest pair of boots in the

the pair much smaller that fitted him.

ROYAL REMALMS.
A Distinguished Corpse Imported to France.

A Distinguished Corpse Imported to France,
The remains of King Louis Philippe,
accompanied by the remains ofnine mem
bers of his family, buried in England.
have Just arrived in France to be placed
in the mausoleum of the Orleans family
at Dreux. Twenty six years ago this
same King took the first steps in gen.
erous and popular act. Just before his
death Napoleon 1. had expressed the
wish that his ashes might find resting
place upon the banks Of the Seine, in the
midst Of a people he loved. Louis Philip
pc saw that wish realized and the Prince
de Joinville was sent to Saint Helena in
La Belle Poule to bring the body of the
Emperor back to France. The ceremony
when it was deposited in the Invalides
was splendid and imposing, and the oc-
casion furnished patriotic fete, which
reused the better feelings of the masses
The King showed himself generous in
giving to the Emperor the homage that
history accorded, and which was really
due. And now the remains Of Louis
Philippe are brought to France and
buried in silence. There is something ot
ingratitude in all this, for Louis Philippe
was an excellent monarch, well inten-
toned ruler, and good and amiable
man.

YES REPRESENTS GRANTLSN

All the developments since the Cincin'
natl Convention make it plain that the
combination of influences through which
Gov, Hayes was nominated was simply
seeking to prolong the corrupt and de-
moralizing system, now known as Grant
ism. Gov. Hayes was adopted because
of his pliable and plastic nature, his med
iocrity, and his dependence on superior
minds to guide him in public affairs.
Grant naturally seeks to perpetuate his
power through a weak successor. There
fore he not only promises all the aid his
Administration can give butpresnts him
self at ratification meeting with Brother
Newman, his conscience keeper, as if to
serve notice on the army of officeholderS
that every one of them is expected to be
active, and to initiate the Presidents ex-
ample. M .......................
Mr.. Conkling applauds the nomination
as good, and claims for New York the
credit itofmakingit. Mr.. Morton declares
the ticket unexceptionable, and says he
will work for it with zeal, as his friends
did at Cincinnati when they dropped his
name and went over in body to Hayes
Blaine of course is quite satisfied, for has
he not so written, and promised trans
fer of those Railroad Rings which so
eagerly bore his banner into the front of
the fight? .. .r..-
Simon Cameron openly asserts that
Don did it by the sacrifice of Hartranft.
Zach Chandler is in raptures with the
ticket, and calls it inspired. Ben Butler
was one ofthe foremost ratifers at Wash
ington. William D. Kelley rejoices at
the financial plank of the platform as
sound and an end ofiesumption. Boss
Shepherd is stirred with new activity for
the cause, and welcomes Hayes as worthy
to step into Grants shoes. Mcdonald,
Mckee, Joyce, and others who are on
the retired list of Republican leaders
have not yet spoken out, but they are
known to approve the nominations.
All the Rings that have nominated the
councils and shaped the legislation.ofth the
party fort last twelve years are enlisted
for Hayes with as cordial zeal as they
would have exhibited for Grant or Blaine
under changed circumstances. The
whole party machinery is to be driven at
double speed under the guidance Of Zach
Chandler and his man Edmunds, the
Postmaster at Washington, .,.. -
Gov Hayes has nothing in his character
or his career which separats him from the
crowd of Republican politicians. His
record in Congress would be blank, ex-
cept that he pocketed the back pay in
1866. He never raised finger or lifted
his voice for any real reform and during
the controversies ofthese recent year he
has been dumb, while to the extent Of
his influence he has exerted himself as
champion of the Administration. Ruther
ford B. Hayes is little else than mere
fgurehead for Grantism. AS President,
he would be an instrument to prolong
misrule and corruption.-M Y. SIM .
