DEATH OF THE POPE.

The death of Pope Plus the Ninth
took place on Thursday week, the
telegraphic intelligence arriving just
too late for insertion in our last
weeks paper. Solemn masses for
the rest of the deceased pontifFs soul
have been celebrated the world over
during the present week. The usual
cOnjectures and canvassing are rife
in reference to the expected action
of the College of Cardinals in elect
ing a new Pope, the point Of interest
being the probable policy of the Pa
pacy in reference to the Italian Gov
ernments; thequestion being wheth-
er friendly relations will be estab-
lished between the secular and
ecclesiastical governments or wheth-
er the new Pope will be as Pho Mono
was-an irreconciIiable. Austria de-
clines taking any part in the cleo

THE LATEST FROM EUROPE,

The aspect of affairs in Europe
looks much more threatening than
it did. On the intelligence received
that the Notifications around Con-
stantinople were virtually in the
power of the Russian army, the
Governments of England, Austria,
France and Italy applied for firmans
permitting their navies to pass the
Dardanelles and the Sea of Marmora
and anchor before Constantinople.
These firmans (doubtlessly at the
dictation of Russia) were refused,
upon which the English fleet of six
iron-cladS entered the Dardanelles,
and when last heard of were in the
Sea of Marmora. The Turkish forts
along the Dardanelles offered no re-
sistance to their passage. No intel
ligence has yet been received of the
advance of the Russian troops with
in the fortified lines of Constantine
pie.
This is the amount of what has
been officially announced; conjec-
lures, of which any number can be
heard, we spare our readers.

DIR. WRIGHT, of the GAINESVILLE
CHRONICLE, in an article on the
Eastern question, undertakes to
prove "that the English Govern
ment did not lead Turkey into the
war and was not bound i'll honor to
see her safe out of it." Few men in
this country are better acquainted
with the Eastern question, or have
written more ably on it, from mod
crate English standpoint. While
England, however, was under no
obligation to see Turkey through,
and did not directly involve her in
the war, Turkish reliance on Eng
land, it seems to us, both led her in

himself in the above paragraph. At

how the statement of simple fact
can be designated as writing from
an English standpoint. Last week
we gave Lord Salisbury's statement
to show that Turkey entered upon

aid of England in it, and since then
Musurus Pasha, the Turkish Embas-

that neither Lord Beaconsfeld nor
Mr.. Layard held out any eXpecta-

Turkish Government hoped against

would compel her to intervene be-

enough, but this groundleSS hope
certainly imposed no obligations on
England.

What Washington Lacks.

There are some very elegant and &C
complished young men in Washington

Count d'Orsay and Beau Brummells of

Washington beau is churlish and selfish
cub: In most places young men take
pride in rendering their cities entertain
ing and attractive to young ladies visit
ing them but here, if a poor girl has
few acquaintance, she not only has
chance of making more, but those she
knows avoid her, for fear, as they say Of
"never-changing partners Girls in re-
remote cities think, eff 1 could only get

Poor, deluded children! Do you know
there is more real fun, more genuine en-
joyment, at any provincial Virginia reel,
any old-fashioned New England candy
pulling, or Western house warming, than
at a bakers dozen of these official recep-
tons. There the Old adage, "No goose

house with marvellous dexterity, and into the

sad, too, and one young person was so much

that he burst forth, 81 see how it is; you

Orion. He was not the son of rich par
ents, but he had influential connections.
He went to Fall River, and speedily be
came known as the smartest young bust
ness man Of the place. Fortune strewetl
his way with flowers. She smootbed the
path for him. She gave him helping
hand whenever he needed it. He became
interested in some of the great manufac-
turing concerns of the town, and at last
he undertook to raise the capital to start
a mill of hissown. He found not the least
difficulty. Everybody liked the young
fellow, theScapitalisrs looked on him with
favor. and the laboring men with conf
dence. He established his mill, and
shortly afterward was sent to England as
the chosen representative CT the Fall
River interests.
What young man ever started out in
life with brighter prospects? But he was
not pure gold. He didn't have the hon
esty Mr.. Orion had. Lacking that he fell
and all the ability and smartness he had
could not save him. Whether his story
is taken, or that OF his cousin, S. A.
Chace, matters little. In the one case he
was weak tool. In the othe: he was a
crafty betrayer. In either the result is
the same, the ruin of kindred, friends and
acquaintance, the loss of reputation,
honor, family, home and freedom. It is
sad ending to what might have been a
brilliant life, and to what, according to
all human seeing, would have been bril-
liant life, if the young man had only
possessed honesty in addition to ability.
The contrast between these two lives
need not be dwelt upon. 1t only has to
be stated to be realized. Hathaway
could have had money enough for all his
needs if he had but kept his integrity.
His dishonesty was the very poorest in
vestment he could have made. Perhaps
there are some who will heed the lesson
OF these two lives. 1t is very old one,
but 1t cannot be too often repeated in
these days of trial and temptation.

The Lesson of Two Ltces.

Mr.. Orion began life poor boy. He
enjoyed but little schooling, and the
friends he had were at the start of but
little influence. He worked hard and
faithfully, from all accounts, at whatever
he put his hands to. He was always
straightforward, always energetic, faith
full, trustworthy: self-reliant. He was con-
nected at one time with a concern that
did not turn out very we'll, but it was &C
knowledged on all sides that the failure
was due to no fault of Mr. Orion. The
failure did not make any difference in
the public regard in which MIR. O1ton
was held. He resumed work again, and
apparently new friends, in addition to
mis- old ones. gathered about him. He was
always hard worker, and was growing
man when the war broke out. He was
given an official position in New York,
and the tact, decision and ability he dis
played called to him the attention of the
Government, and he was appointed Com.
missioner of Internal Revenue. This
place he occupied only short time, leav-
ing it to go into the telegraph business.
When he left it he received a letter from
the Secretary of the Treasury compli-
menting him on the efficiency with which
he had discharged the duties. He was
about forty years old when he began his
new work. and though he thought it was
rather late in life to begin to learn new
business, he probably never regretted the
change. He finally became the head Of a
vast organization, whose interests he at
tended to with the most scrupulous fdel.
ity and the most unremitting energy
During all this time not a whisper was
ever raised against his integrity. he went
to his grave with reputation. so far as
we know, absolutely unspotted.
Wearing the white flower Of blamelsss life
and it is to be remembered that
it was this confidence in his absolute
honesty, his answering integrity as
much as his fine abilities, that won the
esteem Of men. Controlling vast sums Of
money, he never used them for his OWL
benefit. He might have made, by
methods which in these days are well
understood, large fortune. He died
worthless than many man who has not
done one-tenth part of his hard work OF
displayed hundreth part of his ability
But he leaves an honored name, and his
memory will be long enshrined in the
hearts of many to when he was true
and faithful friend.

Come, children, comen' cries old Grand
mother Nature.
I've swept the cobWebs all out of the sky;
Polished the sun till it shines like mirror:
Hung my white snow blankets all out to
dry:
busted the trees until no spec or blemisl
Rests on their delicate garments of green /;
Washed up the floor and put down my new
carpet
Loyeliest carpet that ever was seen.
"Caused my best handmade, the wind, to
move swiftly,
Clearing out rubbish, so long slowed
away,
Airing the chambers and shaking the curtains,
Seeming the air with the odor of May;
Shook up my beds till softer than ever
Wait the coming of tired little feet;
Down in the grove where the wild flowers are
thickest,
Fashioned for you delightful retreat;
Loosened the brooklets from letters that
bound them
Chains Of the Frost Kings that prisoned
them down;
Leaping and dancing with Joy at their free
dom,
Haste they my message to bear to the town,
"Come. then, my children, away with your
school-b books;
Leave now the town, with its turmoil and
heat.
Frolic with glee in my winespreading mead
ows.
Wearied, at night your repose shall be
sweet"
