DEATH OF ADOLPHE THEIRS.

Died on Monday last, Sept. 3rd,
Adolphe Theirs late President of the
French Republic. NJ. Theirs was
born April 18th 1897, and was there
fore eighty years Ofage at his death.
He rose from the humblest classes in
life, his father having been black
smith, and his primary educa-
ton having been received at the
public schools of Marseilles. By
the generosity of friends, who re-
cOgnized in him the promise gilmore
than ordinary talent, he was ena-
bled to study law at AK in the of
fee of NJ. Arnaud, but soon aban-
doned that profession for literature
and became one of the editors of the
Constitutional, paper whose lead
ing principle was opposition to the
unconstitutional measures of the
government of Charles Y. When
the revolution of 1880 had issued in
the accession of Louis Philippe as
King ofthe French, he accepted office
under Latitte as under Secretary of
State. He rose rapidly in political
office and in 1886 become Minister
Tor Foreign Affairs, which Office, af-
ter Temporary retirement, he re-
Sumed in 1910.
He was not idle in a literary point

of view during these stirring times,
but produced his History of the
French ReUolattion in four volumes
between 1923 and 1880, and his His
tory of the Consulate and Empire in
1912. Lord Brougham correctly
designated those two histories as
political pamphlets rather than his
tories they were indeed written
for political effect and produced eff
fects of much political significance.
The first mentioned work was large
ly instrumental in bringing about
the down fall of the legitimist gov
eminent of Charles x, and the lat
ter aided materially in breaking up
that of Louis Philippe, and paving
the way for the Republic with Louis
Napoleon as President. This did
not prevent its author from vigorous
opposition to the Imperial govern
ment when, by his coup d'et0t, Louis
Napoleon had destroyed the Repub-
lie which called him to Office, and,
as soon as the Empire was establish
ed, Theirs was banished. He was
subsequently restored and, in 1868,
elected to the Chamber of Deputies,
where he was long recognized as
leader of the opposition to the adj
ministratiOn of Napoleon III.
When the disaster at Sedan had
put an end to the second Empire,
M. Theirs was called upon by the
new Republic, first to act as its en-
vOy in the various courts of Europe,
and afterwards as President. His
talents were always more successful
in opposition than in power, but his
great abilities and unimpeachable
integrity secured him the unwaver-
ing support of the whole Lib
eral party, both Conservative and
Radical, and, when the intrigues
of the MOnarchists succeeded
in substituting MacMahon for him
in the Presidential chair, he became
the unanimous choice of that party
as candidate for a second Presiden-
tial term whenever an election
might take place.
His death at the present time is
an untOward event for the RepubIi-
can party, as the Conservative por-
ton of that party entertain dread
of Gambetta's extreme views and
might, in case Of his candidacy, be
driven to unite with the right CEN
tire or moderate MOnarchial party.
1t is said that NJ. Grevy, late chair
man Of the Chamber of Deputies,
will now become the Liberal candi-

ADMIRAL RAPHAEL sEMrEs

This celebrated Naval officer died
on Thursday, the Both ult. He was
born in Charles county, Maryland,
in 1909, and entered the navy as a
Midshipman, attaining the rank of
commander in 1866. He did service
in the Mexican war both as a naval
officer AMI and as an aid to Gen.
Worth. AT the commencement of
our civil war he resigned his posi-
ton as secretary of the lighthouse
board, and took command of the
steamer Sumpter Of New Orleans,
on which he ran the blockade and
operated on the commercial marine
of the United States in the Gulf of
Mexico. He proceeded afterwards
to England and thence to Gibraltar,
closely watched by the United States
ship TuscarOra. Unable to escape
with the Sumpter from Gibraltar he
abandoned her there and in August,
1862, took command of the Alabama
built in England and manned by an
English crew; in her he continued
infiicting serious damage ON the
United States and in January, 1868,
sunk the gun-bOat Hatteras off Gal
weston. On June 18th of that year
the Alabama was sunk in an action
with the Kearsage off Cherbourg.
Semmes was rescued by an English
yacht and remained. we believe, in
England till the end of the war,
when he returned to America and
practised law in Mobile, Ala. He
was an accomplished lawyer, being
specially versed in international
law, and his literary abilities were
manifested in several works descrip-
tive of service in both the Mexican
and civil wars, his best known pro-
ductiOn being the " Memoirs of Ser
vice afioat during the war between
the States" 1869.

Osnlan Pasha.

J. B. Wickliffe in a letter to the
COurier-JOurnal, denies the state
ment that Osman Pasha is Marshal
Bazaine and says:
81 happen to know very well who
Osman Pasha is, as | have CORES
pOnded with him for several years
and have received letters from him
since he has been given command
Osman Pasha is an American, a ma
tive of Hawkins county, Tennessee.
His name is r. Clay Crawford. He
was colonel of a regiment of artil-
lery during the late war between
the States. He afterwards entered
the service of the liberal Govern
ment of Mexico and was made a
General of a division. He created
considerable stir by the capture of
Bagdad, Mexico, passing his forces
over the Rio Grande from the Texas
shore. He finally quarrelled with
Juarez, the Mexican President, and
returned to the United States with
a large fortune. He resided for sew
eral years at beautiful country seat
on the Delaware, near Philadelphia.
He is of a restless disposition, which
caused him to seek excitement, and
he entered the service of the Khe-
dive of Egypt, and was soon after
transferred to the service of the
Sultan, and commanded the Tur-
kiSh army at PleVna."

The tumor grew so rapidly that an opera

that The tumor would result in death in a

EYnching Kentucky

Those who are fascinated by the
annals of crime have long been fa-
miliar with tales of murder and
robbery in a district of Henry and
Owen counties, KY, of which Lock-
port, small town on the Ken
lucky river, is the centre. Richard
Shuck was hung there for the muir
der of a man named Parrish, not
long ago, and on the scaffold made
a confession of many past crimes,
duplicating five other men named
James Simmons, Robert, Joseph
and Samuel Goodrich and David
Carter. These men were arrested
and Carter, to save himself, turned
States evidence. His statements
tailed in all essential points with
those in Shuck's confession and were
cOrrObOrated by the discovery of the
bones of victims in various places
designated by him. The surround
ing population was intensely excited
and violence seemed imminent at
their preliminary trial, but they
were allowed to be taken to Jail.
On the night of the 3rd inst, how
ever, the Jail was visited by an arm
ed mob, who took them to a bridge
near New Castle and hung them over
its parapet, where their bodies were
found the next morning.
No punishment could be too bad
for their crimes, but it is a melan-
chOly symptom of something wrong
in a community when justice can
not be done on crime in due course
of law. We say this in no spirit of
reproach to our sister State; our
own skirts are not clean. One only
remedy can ever be applied to this
unhappy state of things and that is
a radical reformation of our crimi-
nal law in reference to murder and
manslaughter, and this must be
backed by an enlightened public
opinion to be effective.

THE SITUATION IN THE EAST

Since being driven from the LON
last week that portion of the Russian
army which fronts towards Niche
met Ali, Eastward, remains on the
defensive under the Czarovitch; but
there has been movement in the
right wing fronting Osman Pasha
Westward. The initiative was taken
by Osman who, advancing from
Plevna, took strongly entrenched
village six miles Southeast of that
town, losing large numbers in doing
so. This was followed early this
week by an advance of the whole
Russian line against Osman's posi-
ton, which was successful in captur-
ing Lovacz, a very important posi-
ton in reference to the Balkan
passes, and also in preventing juno
ton between the two Turkish ar
mics. If it be true that the Servian
army is coming up from the West
on Osman's rear it seems likely that
he will have to retreat on Sofia,
which is at present his base of sup
ply; but, if the Servians do not
fight any better than they did last
year, they will not give much
trouble.

with that easy dignity which sits
so gracefully upon him, and with
that genial charm of manner which

THE prospect of a large orange
crop this winter is encouraging.
Among fruit-growers the only thing
to be dreaded is the possibility of a
gale in September, or it may be
sooner, which sometimes visits the
South Atlantic coast. The gale of
1871 thrashed off about one-third of
the oranges, but that was very Sc
we're, and another such may not Oc-
cur in a long time. The young
orange groves are very promising to

AND now we are told that Osman
Pasha is a Tennesseean; once an
expelled cadet from West Point,
then an inmate of the penitentiary
for stealing, then a Colonel of artil-
lery in the Federal army, then a
Mexican General growing rich on
plumber, then in the service of the
Khedive, and lastly the fighting
Pasha who whipped the Russians at
Plevna. We have no objections,
but it does read a good deal like a
dime novel.
