stanley Matthews,

WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.-The following spe-
cial to the Baltimore Sun is wonderfully
truthful: Mr.. Stanley Matthews is evidently
going little too far when he makes, as in
his discussion with Gen Ewing, so plump and
comprehensive a denial of the fact of his ne
gotiations last winter with prominent South
ern leaders.
There are hundreds of witnesses to the fact
that Mr.. Matthews repeatedly sought out
Southern Congressman and others, at the
capital and at the hotels, urging them to
allow the electoral count to proceed, and as
sured them that everything would be made
right for the South

Death of an Early Settler.

= EDITOR NEws MANY friends and
old acquaintanees among the many
readers of your paper, will no doubt
lament the death of Jane Terrell, and
read with interest, some of the par
ticulars of her last days. She was
known to great many of the Pho
neers of Highland county, (she be-
ing an early settler of Hillsboro.)
She was born in North Carolina,
June 27, 1896, her maiden name be-
ing Jane Johnson. She came with
her people to Ohio, when six years of
age, when Hillsboyo was a mere viii
derness,and witnessed the laying out
of the town and its growth.
aiezsvea number of years in
Highland county, when she married
and moved to Clinton county, where
she raised her family. She was the
mother of ten children, had over 20
grandchildren, and a great many
great-grand children. Four of her
children are dead. Ali lived to be q
good age except one, who died in in
fancy. The remaining six are scat
tered over five different States, Ind
lana, Illinois, Kansas. Missouri and
Ohio.
After her children separated she
took great delight in visiting them,
and travelled back and forth often
until in the last eight years of her
life, when she settled with her son
in Clinton comfy, where she died
on the 14th of January last.
" She possessed a remarkable con-
stitution. strong intellect for one
of her age, retained a good memory
to the last. She united with the
Christian Church when 1t was hrst
organized at Lynchburg, of which
she remained faithful member un-
til she died. During her last illness
she suffered considerable at times,
yet she bore it with great patience,
always expressing a great desire to
go and when death came it had no
terror for her. She said her work
was done on earth. Her favorite
song was, mo work to do" When
friends were gathered round her dy-
ing bed, she said, Il am going where
saints die no more, and ''nearer,
my God, to thee"
"Fate seemed to wind her up for four score yers,
Yet ran she on one winter more,
Til like clock worn out with eating time,
The wheels of weary life at last stood STILL"
