OBITUARY-Died in Hamilton, O., May
l8, 1879, Miss Mary Belle Clark, aged six
teen years and twenty-six days. Her life
bility of youths contentedly resigning the
world and of being wholly consecrated TO
Christ, perfect demonstration that suffer
ing can be SO sanCtilied by the gospel
as to yield the richest spiritual fruits
Her death was demonstration that
in Christ death has no sting and the
grave no victory. 81 am standing
in the gate of Heaven" 81 have no hope
or wish to live longer" DO not mourn for
me as without hope" and similar thoughts
she uttered showed her complete submis-
sion, and when the hour came Of the trial
of her faith she fell asleep as trustfully as
one who draws the drapery of her couch
around her and lies down to pleasant
dreams. Her funeral took place on Tuesday
the Goth from the Christian Church. Of
which she was a member. Lay the sod
lightly over her breast calm be her sum-
bers; peaceful her rest; gently and
solemnly bend over the bed where ye
have pillowed thus early her head; twine
sweet rosebud over her tomb; sprinkle
fresh buds there, beauty and bloom"

An Unhappy owner of a Bear.

l4'S" ioih AiibuhC'J
Jean Pierre Barat, the Frenchman
whose performing bear was seized by the
customs officers for duty, is loud in his
complaints of his treatment. 1t appears
after Barat had decided. not to pay the
duty, the officers sent for an express
wagon and cage to transport the animal
to Central Park. Barat then borrowed
$40 and offered it to the officers, who
then decided not to let the Frenchmar
have his bear unless the charges for tax.
ing it to Central Park were paid. The
extra payment was refused, and the
Frenchman was then ordered TO put the
bear in the cage. He replied: ooh, no.
you have taken charge of him; now take
care of him."
The Superintendent then called to one
of the officers: "Put that ar bear in that
ar cage" The officers, one after the
other, refused to touch the animal, and
then the Superintendent of the Dock
told the Frenchman that unless he put
the bear in the cage it would be shot.
After the animal was loaded, the French
man jumped on the cage to go with the
animal. When ordered off he refused to
so and was put under arrest.
The Frenchman, with tears streaming
down his cheeks, drew book from his
pocket, saying: "Here's my livret, show
ing that during my whole life in the SER
vice of my country ! have not been
arrested, and my character is pure. But l
come to free country to be arrested for
the first time in my life." The French
man followed the wagon to Central Park
on foot, and yesterday returned to Castle
Garden, hoping to make some arrange
ments to have his bear liberated, but the
Customs Officers were immovable.

Brothel Keepers Arraigned.

Emma Settles, a colored woman, was ar
raigned in the Common Pleas Court to-day
on charge of keeping a brothel. She
pleaded guilty and was sentenced to pay
fine of $50 and to be imprisoned sixty days
in the Work-house.
After the woman was taken to Jail by the
criminal bailiff, the Court, being informed
that she had recently been delivered of a
child, ordered that she be brought back to
the courtroom.
The Court then inquired if she would
give up her present mode of life if execu-
ton of the sentence was suspended The
defendant replied she would do so, and the
Court then suspended the sentence and
allowed her to go on giving 5000 bail to ap-
pear and answer the charge.
Madame Campbell was arraigned on a
similar charge and entered a plea of not
guilty, and gave bond in the sum of $500 to
answer the charge.

Copabia and Mercury discarded. Purely

medicines given by quacks are Balsam Co
