Death of Queen Mercedes,
n. O. City Item, June q.

Yesterday afternoon, the young
and beautiful Queen of Spain, Mer-
eedes, left her Spanish throne to ap-
pear before that eternal and change
less throne at whose foot all the
kings and rulers of the earth must
sooner or later do vassalage.
Probably no death in the long
obituary of 1873 will create so sin
cere and profound a regret through
out the civilized world.
1t was only few months ago tha
the illustrated journals of Europe and
America made the nations familiar
with the beautiful face and beautiful
character of the young Queen, on the
occasion of her marriage. Pleasant
predictions of happiness for the
bridegroom and bride, and of pros
perity for Spain were heard the world
over; and although the Spanish dia-
dem has become a dim and shadowy
bapble, it mighHbe said that Merce-
des was the most beloved Queen dur
ing her short reign that graced a
European throne i'll the last half CEN
tury.
The universal regret will be, how
ever, not for the death of the young
Queen, but for the young and beau
tifuI woman so suddenly taken from
the midst of all that happiness could
desire in the present or promise in
the future. She was in the very
bloom of wolnanhood, beautiful, rich,
and beloved by her husband and her
subjects. Doubtless there have been
many hundred deaths within the last
few months equally worthy of regret,
but this one win be deeply felt be-
cause the victims social position
rendered every marked action of her
life visible to the eyes of the world.

How to Obtain Aid for the
leYeeS.
Pointe Counee peliean

Let our members of Congroas ask
for no general levee bill; the scheme
is too gigantic; fifty millions is too
mach to begin with ; it frightens Rep
resentatives. Ask for a specific ap-
preparation to build certain breaks
and repair designated ievees. Don't
go beyond this. Let your Repre-
sentatives 60 to the rooms of their
fellaw members, cultivate good social
relation, talk the matter over, and
our word for it they viii get what
they ask for. Thomas Jefferson ef-
fected all his legislation in that way.
Coils, Durable and Claiborne worked
through the press, through the cham,
bers of commerce, in the social cir
Gle and through government officials,
and they got almost aunanimous voto
of a Republican Senate III favor of Il
leyee appropriation. Let the same
effort, and in the same way, be made
again, and success is certain.
