They had occupied themselves thus for
short time, when Esch spoke to his
companion Rehrig, and receiving no re-
ply turned to look at him, when he OBJ
served that he was shaking, and before
he could reach him, Rehrig, had fallen
headlong over the side of the boat into
the water. Esch seized him by the
collar, but the boat tipping he left it,
jumping onto log, and becoming ex-
hausted let go his hold, when Rehrig
sank beneath the water. Esch imme

StoughtOn,s Reward.

The Hon. +. w. srouGuToN has not watt
ed all these years in vain. GRANT has at
last rewarded his ndelity. his humility,
and his extraordinary patience, by giving
him mission. The Hon. +. w. Slough
TON is now the duly accredited ambassador
of President GRANT to the Louisiana Re
turning Board and the Court of KELLOGG.
The moral of this appointment is that
even u mission is not beyond the reach of
the humblest citizen, provided he will give
his whole mind TO the work of getting one.
Louisiana was the occasion of the Hon. f..
w. SToUGHroN's first services TO Grantism.
1t Is therefore peculiarly appropriate that
his mission should DO TO Louisiana. But
what will the people think Of sending to
KELLOGG as n scrutinizer, "a fellow who has
endorsed KELLoGGs greatest frauds and
approved them beforehand7
However, we congratulate the Hon. Il.
w. SToUGHToN upon the well-deserved
honor which now descends, like q crown,
upon his silvercd head.
