WASHINGTON IRVING AND His FRIENDS
| AND WESTINGHOUSE LAST INTERVIEW
WITH HIS MOTHER.
Gen. S. M. Southard. of Vorgennes,
has on exhibition at the State House fran.
ed copies of these great national pictures,
and has, we understand, the exclusive
agency for their sale in the United States.
They are engraved ON steel in the highest
style of art ut an expense of $4,000,
pr inted on heavy plate paper 30x40 and
3OX30 inches. and sold ut $40 and S. per
copy. The first represents an interior
view of The lamented Irving's library at
Sunnyside In the center of group of
| fifteen American celebrities is seated the
amiable and unassuming Irving. Around
this genial sun the artist has traced the
orbits of our brilliant literary system, APP
parently preserving those distances and
positions which are suggestive of the in
dividual correlation borne by each in his
sphere. Upon the right and left, and in
Irving's immediate vicinity are Prescott,
Cooper, Bancroft, and in wider circle
revolvs Emerson, Kennedy. Bryant, Paul
ling. Willis, Hawthorne, ialleck. Holmes,
ttIlu uShCi tllftH tlIG !" AOlt group
forming a constellation of which every
American should justly be proud.
The second represents the immortal
Washington at Fredericksburgh Gust after
his election to the presidency where he
had gone to bid his mother what proved
to be last farewell. After informing her
of his election and that after the press of
public business was over he would visit
her again, she replied in prophetic words.
" George, you will see me no more in
this world. But 90, my son, fulfil the
high deslinies which Heaven has assigned
to you-go, and may Heavens and your
mothers blessing be with you always"
Washington, overcome by her words,
leaned his head on her aged shoulder
and wept. The hero and the man sunk
before the feelings of the son, and tears
that honored him more than the laurels
he wore stood on his care-furfowed cheek.
What thrilling scene for nm artist do
they present as they thus stand together!
That TALL. commanding form which had
been the terror of so many battlelields,
bowed over the trembling form of his
mother, and that brow before which the
nation bent in homage hid on her neck in
silent grief. In the margin is steel
vignette of Washington's birthplace. Gen.
Southland is also publishers agent for the
great historic picture OF the Gettysburg
battlefield, in which Vdrmcnters perform
ed most glorious and efficient service.
Here. too, the general himself Was wound
ed and MANNED for life. So, every con-
sderation, the value of the superb engrav-
ings, the value of the services rendered,
and his personal misfortune. alike strongly
commend him to the public for patronage.
Orders addressed to S. Nj. Southland at
Vergennes will meet with prompt atten-
ton. or can be left at the bookstore of L.
c. Phinney or at the drug store of F. IL.

SIn Calais October atth. oserssro,s mensns II
cen years and eight months.
This young man had been at work on a
farm near his home during the summer
and apparently enjoyed tolerably good
health. Feeling indisposed he went home
COR rest, and for u few days seemed to bt
suffering from slow fever. his disease
not assuming violent form until about
Sunday, Oct. goth. from which time q
former brain trouble was greatly aggra'
waited, and he grew rapidly worse until his
death, which occurred last Thursday.
In his death the community and town
suffered a loss which is deeply and widely
felt. Though quiet and unassuming in
manners, yet he possessed rare qualifica-
tons as q scholar, combined with integri-
ty of character, that placed him at once
among the most promising young men in
town. For more than year he had been
an active member of the Christian church
and died in full possession of that hope
and trust that does not shrink from death.
Surrounded by friends, with every pros
pect of usefulness and activity before him,
he naturally chung to life with all the
tenacity of hopeful youth. but often ex-
pressed himself as in perfect submission
to higher will. He was thoughtful,
consistent Christian young man, and his
daily life was such that
when his summons came to Join
The innumerable caravan, that moves
To that mysterious realm where each shall take
His chamber in the silent halls of death,
sustained and soothed ..4
b. an unfatering trust. he approached bis grave
Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch
About down dreams
His funeral was attended at the Christian
church last Sabbath, where one of tho
largest audiences ever gathered in that
house attested the esteem in which he was
held by the people of the town.
