DEATHS

DIED, in Clarkshurg, in this county, on tn,
Sd inst, HOWARD YOUNG, aged SO years
He was sick only a Few weeks, but was
Christian fortitude, never murmuring, he CAV
every evidence of strong hope of Heaven
He was member of the NJ. +. Church 70
thirty years, and although nearly deprived o
reason, when surrounded by loved ones AM
friends, he was heard humming the old tune
"Wait ill Jesus Comes"
Impressive scene to see one die,
Then we must feel our end is nigh
AS coming darkness makes the night,
So fading life dims mortal sight.
Yet darkness came not to our friend,
Light shone around him to the end
Hank to the words he dying spake,
Trusting in God for Jesus sake:
"And have 10 the crossing come,
And is my work already done2
Then welcome Death | have no fear,
Although the closing scene be near"
An anxious group, with silent tread,
fingered around his dying bed,
A convoy came to bear him DER
To the bright scenes Of Canaan shore.
Angelic bands prolonged their stay
Until his spirit passed away;
His mission filed, his work was done
Lies battle fought, the victory won.
A star-decked crown he's gone to wear,
Aud in Gods Kingdom have a share.
We hope to meet on that blest shore,
Where we shall sigh and sin no more.
A FRIEND

OHIO ELE0rL0N.

We are sorry for Mr.. Iiayes--he has ex-
pended so much trouble in his paciicaton
policy and his ramables around his stolen
dominions to carry the Ohio election that we
really felt despondently sorry for him when
we received the news Of twenty thousand
Democratic majority from the old Buckeye
State" It is his home. There his eyes first
opened TO the sunlight Of Heaven, there his in
FAINT lips first drew the yirtuous nutrment from
a christian mother, there his feet first trod the
soil of earth and there dwelt the paymates of
his boyhood and the associates of his youth
There he pursued with wonderful energy his
studies, there he graduated with noble hOnors,
there he raised his gallant regiment, and there
he was destined TO return upon his magnlh-
cent retreat bearing confederate bullet in
his loyal bosom. There he was elected gov
ernor and there with the assistance Of Stanley
Mathews and Congress he stole the Presidency
of the United States. Oh when this glorious
climax of vauting ambition was reached the
yoluptuous bosom of Ohio heaved with the
tumultuous pillows Of an enraptured pride
Her gallant son nestled there with filial love,
and rose and fell to the heavings of her bosom,
guided by the hand Of the irresistible Stanley
Mathews Through the advice of Stanley,
Sherman went into the cabinet and Stanley
into the Senate These three deities Graded
in fraud were running a government to the
satisfaction of its people. All mankind OF
America, especially those of the South and
Ohio fell down and Sorshiped at the shrine
of this newborn trinity. Camp-Meetngs
ceased the worship Of God and Frustrated
themselves before the American Mahomet. He
sat upon his throne with Stanley Mathews
upon his right hand and Sherman upon his
left and Ohio in the centre. His eyes rested
lovingly upon his mother and babe her do his
bidding, but alas, affection was banished from
the maternal bosom, and she said "Thou,
Sherman, Stanley Mathews and fraud art no
children of minep and from her ballot boxes
came tho awful retributon of twenty thou
sand Democratic majority An Endorsement
by Ohio at this time, wher many Of his own
party have turned away from him in New
York and Maine would have been more than
gratifying to Mr.. Hayes. But his every STRAIT
agem has failed be stands in state OF
political isolation, neither claimed nor wanted
by either party. What will he do next2

Gov Hampton, of South Carolina, made
rcquisiton last v eek on Chief Justice Cartier
! Of the District Of Columbia, for the rendition
of John j. Patterson, United States Senator
| from that State, on a charge of bribing mem
bers of the Legislature and hiring one N G
| Parker to commit petit larceny, and now
described rs a fugitive; from justice The
Senator was arrested in Washington on
Saturday, but appeared for a hearing before
Justice Humphreys under habcas corpus, who
adjourned hecas to The 18th instant, two days
after the meeting of Congress, and admitted
The Senator to bail in 81, 800.
The New York Tribune says that the roman
tic story that has been going the rounds Of
the press about lady to whom Archbishop
Bayley was engaged before he became priest
dying OF a broken heart is a pure fiction. Mr.
BAyley and the lady 10 question were friends
from childhood, but not lovers. They never
were engaged TO be married. She never suf-
fered from consumption or a broken heart but
remained in excellent health and spirits for
more than thirty years after he entered the
priesthood, and died 10 Europe onlya year
ago. She made short trial of convent life
as a novice Of the Sisters Of Mercy, but as
this was when she was middle-aged woman,
and as much as ten or fifteen years after the al
legged separation from her betrothed, it could
love Neither was there anything peculiar in
the circumstances of her return to the world.
Finding that the convent did not suit her, she
went home in the most commonplace manner,
as novices and sisters often do
The.rite saying that at never rains but it
pOurs" applies not less to crimes ard calamities
than SO other things. The Boston Post is
disposed 10 think that gross depravity has
become almost an independent influence, af-
fecting animate and inanimate things alike
Within the last month-almost within the
last night--there has been fearfully ac-
cumu latng record Of evils in the country
The infection of coufagration has passed from
town to town, eating into the vitas of bust
ness and sroiling the symmetry OF carefully
buided and prosperous cities and villages
Providence, Putnam and McKcesport are but
part Of the victims to bear testimony, while
the burning of the Patent Office at Washing
ton must not be left ont of the record of dis
aster. But the insatiate genius of mischief
has worked as widely aud effectively through
man as through mere matter Bursting banks
in Chicago ia New York and elsewhere,
forgeiies in Wall street, million-dollar fraud
in Philadelphia form portion Of the outline
of grand abrie of criminal speculation and
mismanagement for which the current news of
the day shows there is detail and filling ia
abundance. The public is not as much shocked
as it would have been once, bat il less loud
in its protests it is not less determined and it
does not mean 10 let the day Of reckoning 60
by unmproved.

Dom Piatt, writing to his paper, the Capt.
tai, while on his western visit denounces the
imposition practsed upon and the advantage
taken of the State and United States by the
railroads in the following manner:
''What shame, what a national disgrace it
is, that these great thoroughfares of trade
should be subject to such influences and abuse /
Grown ieyond the control of State legisla-
ton, they laugh congressional control to
scorn. Invested with privileges that no longer
make them private enterprises, they have
actually come to own the country they so
wantonly plumber. When they get into
trouble with the labor they Cypress and the
producers they rob, call is made upon the
General Government for bayonets TO protect
them, as great national enterprises But the
moment any attempt is made, through legisa-
ton, 10 arrest their extravaganza, misman-
agement and plumber, they are private invest
ments, entirely beyond the control of law
making power. If the incoming Congress
does not inaugurate measures looking TO a
reform Of these evils, the people will take
them in hand and make short work of the
abuse, that is simply Infamous"

THE ARCHBESHOP'SB BURIAL.

The final obsequies Of the late Archbishop
Bayley, primate of the Catholic church in
America, were solemnized yesterday, and the
remains of the distinguished prelate placed in
the tomb at Emmttsburg. Not since the death
of Archbishop Spalding has there been at the
cathedral SO imposing service as that of yes
terday, and the final rites at Emmttsburg
were invested with peculiar solemnity aud in
terest. While the Catholics Of the archdiocese
unite in lamenting the death Of Archbishop
Bayley, they are TO be congratulated on the
admirable selection of Archbishop Gibbons,
who succeeds him, as the ninth prelate of the
Catholic church in America. The latter is
the youngest prelate ever elevated to this
high rank and, besides being man of deep
learning and piey, possesses fine executive
powers. The trust is an important one, but
one which he is in every particular peculiarly
well qualified to discharge .-BaLto. Gazette,
