Marriage Of the Aged Baroness Burdett- Coutts.
The London World of Aug. 5, says a
marriage has been arranged between Baroness
Burdett Coutts and Ashmeade Bartlett, her
secretary and almoner for some time past A
recent statement to the same effect, which was
contributed, was made by the intended BRIDE
groom. The gentleman is brother to Ellis
Ashmeade Bartlett, member Of parliament.
By becoming Bartletts wife the baroness will
lose very large portion of her inceme-to
the extent, it is said, OF over one hundred
thousand poudds yearly. This is in accord
ance with the will Of the duchess of St. Adams,
who bequeathed her vast property to Miss
Angela, now Baroness Burdett- Couttt, provid-
ed if she married an alien or naturalized sub
ject, her interest in Coutts' bank and other
properties shall cease. Bartlett is an Ameri-
can naturalized short time since It is as.
serted remonstrances against the marriage
engagement from the best friends Of the baro-
ness and from the highest quarters failed to
have any effect, and the marriage will shortly
take place. The baroness is 66, while Bartlett
has not yet completed his goth year.

Attempted Highwsy Robbery.

soCAAPtCW AlVOOC1y ss8
Near the Harvester works, in ST. Paul
Mimi, on the night Of August three tramps
about s p. NJ. attacken Mr.. Kiefer, brother of
Clerk Kiefer, and proprietor Of the half way
house between this city and Saltwater, Mr.
Kiefcr was driving home about 8 O'clock in
the evening, and had reached point a short
distance beyond the harvester works, when
he was suddenly attacked by three tramps.
One of the Williams seized the horse by the
bride and his companions attempted to get
into the buggy. Mr. Kiefer was armed with
heavy whip. and, realizing his perilous sit
uation, he dealt the men several sturdy blows
on the head. They rolled back from the shock
and whipping his horse, the animal plunged
forward and broke away from his captor. The
men were soon distanced, and Mr.. Kiefer
luckily escaped without injury.
Slaughter of Cattle.
Arthur Arnold, liberal, in the house
Of commons moved the following resolution:
aThat in the opinion of the house, the con-
pulsory slaughter at ports of landing Of fat
stock from the United States, restricts the
supply and increases the cost of food, and hav-
ing reg ard to the freedom from disease of cat
tie produced in America, the house deems it
desirable the government should consider the
restrictions with a view to their modif cation
ar their removal!" The resolution in the first
part closely followed that proposed by w. E.
Foster in 1878, for which resolution twenty
four members Of the present government vot-
ed in the minority. Official correspondence
with the United States on the subject will be
distributed in the house before discussion Ct
the rebellion.

Time, chronicles, as an interesting incl

ever served in New York, We have no
Darn native to our waters, and although
tbs common carp of Europe has been In
troduced from France into the Hudson
and other waters Of New York, 1t has eth
ar failed to thrive, or, as food fish, has
met with very little acceptance. 1t re-
NAMED for the United States fish com
missioner to introduce, four years ago, the
German carp, and to recommend 1t as q
valuable addition to the long list oil
American food fishes. The Maryland fish
commissioners also assisted in Its distri'
button in the waters Of that State. The
carp is eminently pond fish, preferring
ouiet waters with soft or muddy bottoms
and vegetable food to the Larvae Of aquatic
insects. The fine carp over which select
party Of New York ePicures have been
pronouncipg benediction was the pro-
duct OF the government ponds at Wash
ington. 1t weighed three and a half pounds
It was prepared for the table by Ger
man restauranteur famed for the excell'

estinp to know, was boiled with the scales
on, the skin being carefully removed with
a fish knife after it was placed on the Ia
bic. 1t was tried plain, with melted but
Ter, and also with white sauce to which
horse.radish gave piquaucy. The final
verdict was that the flavor Of the German
carp is delicate to degree, with taste
peculiar to itself, and equal in excellence
to that Of any fresh water fish.

leader of the Republican party in the United
States Senate, and their main stay and strong
reliance in every contest with their oppo-
nents. cannot now be put down as wanting
craftsmanship and positive qualities. The
people have noticed that Mr.. Edmunds's dis
position is not so retiring" that he is not
commonly found at the front in any great
emergency.
In fact, when the Utica Herald says that
MIR. Edmunds comes very near being the
ideal Senator, it gives up its whole case. The
qualities needed to make the ideal Senator
are those required for the ideal President.
The Senator is the constitutional adviser of
the President lie must pass upon all im-
portant appointments. He shares with the
President the treaty making power. He can
not do his duty without the craftsmanship,
acquaintance with public affairs and public
men, power of judging of men, integrity,
ability and independence, which are indis-
pensable to success and usefulness in the
chief magistracy. 1t is the popular recogni-
ton of these qualities which gives to MIR.
Edmunds the undeniable respect and favor
of all intelligent and patriotic citizens.
The suggestion that Mr.. Edmundss name
is pressed for the first place on the ticket,
with an eye to the second place, has, we
need hardly say, not the faintest foundation.
Mr.. Edmunds occupies higher place in the
Senate than that of its chairman and his
friends could not consent TO his being shelved
in the Vice Presidency.
The Edmunds ''boom," such as it is. IS by
no means calculated to advance Mr.. Blaine's
chances. That is what is the matter with
the Tribune and Utica Herald. That their
objection TO him can be simmered down TO
lateness in the canvass and want of personal
magnetism" is strong proof of his fitness
and availability.

The Late John Cain, Of Rutland,

John Cain was born in Castletown, Isle of
Man, January IS, 1909. lie emigrated to
this country in 1892 at the age of 90 years,
and settled in Rutland with brother, as an
architect and builder. In 1884 he married
Mary, daughter of Avery Billings, Esq, a
prominent and wealthy citizen of Rutland,
who survives him. Five children were born
to them, William j., John, Avery b., jew
EFT p and Mary, wife of Henry C. Harrison,
Esq, OF Brandon. William and Avery b.
both died in 1879. Mr.. Cain was closely
identified with the interests of the town Of
Rutland for more than quarter OF a century.
and held various town offices of trust, such
as selectman, lister and grand juror. He
superintendent the building of the United
States court house and postoffice, the town
hall and the Rutland freight depot. AT the
organization of the Rutland and Woodstock
railroad, he was elected its president, and he
devoted much time and money to that sue
cessful enterprise. He was a lifelong and
active Democrat was delegate to four
Democratic National Conventions, and was
postmaster of Rutland under the administra-
ton of Franklin Pierce and James Buchanan,
and twice the candidate of his party for
Congress.
He was the founder and proprietor of the
Rutland Courier, which was for a series Of
years the organ of the Democratic party in
Western Vermont The Courier proved his
financial ruin, and after its suspension he
led quiet and retired life, as one of the
agents of the Vermont Mutual Fire Insur-
ance Company. Mr. Cain was man of ar
dent temperament and unguarded expression,
which often involved him in enmities. He
was warm friend and bitter opponent, yet
among his dying words he said: Il bear no
enmity against any man." lie was genial
and social gentleman in his intercourse with
his fellowmen. For several months Mr.
Cain had been great sufferer, compelled to
sit in chair day and night, until last Sab
bath when he took to his bed. He was con-
scous to the last, and few moments before
his death on Tuesday evening, summoned
his family around his bedside and babe them
farewell" and passed gently into that sleep
which knows no waking.

The Springfield Republican insists that it

were taikigs a'olt him two years ago; and
il was in J,.ly, 1873, that the Albany Eren-

Senator Edmunds's name for the presiden-
tial nomination said Mr.. Edmunds is a
strong. acute, Drained, sound hearted
man. His service in the Senate is of meal
cu.able value to 'he country. He is in
dependent he wants no tavors: he has
no difficult ami divided home interests to
deal with; he has nothing 10 hamper him in
striking boldly against every wrong; and
all This. with his superior knowledge of legis-
lation. puts him in the best possible position
10 protect the public interests. He is the
remorsrless foe OF all crude laws and i'm
proper schemes, is always vigilant and never
afraid to object lie is too useful a man in
the Senate to be lost from that body, in the
presidency or anywhere else"

Opposition :, Gr. Eimunis,

1t IS not putting ii too strong to say that
the Republican Press Of the country has con.
ceded the fitness Of Mr. Edmunds for the
candidacy Of the party, and for the Presi-
dency. Tihre are two exceptions TO this
unaniniiy in the New York Tribune and
Utica H-oaiH, two leading and active Blaine
organs. The 1nGaae's argument amounted
To nothing more than prediction that Mr..

The Hera!Fs objections to Mr.. Edmuuds
are:
First, that he has none Of the gifts of popu-
larlty.' If this means that Mr.. Edmunds
is not running around and shaking hands
with everybody, or wiring letters thanking
editors for their expressions in his favor -
that he is using 10 arts TO ingraiate himself
personally, and tells everybody who ap-
proaches him on The subject, that he is not
candidate, il Is true. Mr. Edmunds has
always been too busy with matters Of large

Bishop Peck.

This distinguished divine was born in the
humble log cabin home of pioneer, in Otse.
go county, N. Y, April 4, 1911. The
youngest son of large family, his life
presents another of those remarkable illustra-
tons of struggle and success furnished by the
annals of our Nation and of the American
church. In 1882 he joined the Oneida Con-
ference of the NJ E. church on probation,
filling laborious charges in Central New York
from 1924. Afterwards he removed to
the ST. Lawrence region, New York, in
1856, and was appointed to the charge of
the Black River Conference Seminary in
1887. After earnest efforts in behalf of the
institution he was transferred to the princi-
palship of Troy Conference Academy in
1871, and to the presidency of Dickinson
College in 1919. Again he was in the pas
torate at Washington, d. c., in 1852; cor
responding secretary of the tract society in
1854 then for several years in the pastorate
at San Francisco, Cal Back again in the East
we find him from 1863 leading in warfare
upon social and political corruption in the
Empire State and in 1S70-72 he founded
and generously and tenaciously labored for
the endowment of Syracuse University, n.
Y. He had been elected member of success
sive general conferences, from 1874 to 1872.
At this last, he was elected bishop of the NJ.
L. Church. When set apart to this Office &C
cording to the forms of the church, it was an
interesting and affecting event that he should
be presented as candidate for the rite by
his senior brother, the venerable, now saint
ed Rev. DR.. George Peck. Since then, his
labors have been truly apostolic and mar
vellously abundant. lie has travelled sever
al times ever the continent, and everywhere
and always his labors are characterized with
the most intense industry and persevering
effort 1t has been well said of him. He
has trinity of faiths,-great faith in him
self, faith in his mission. and faith in God.
lie has all the elements of an orator-pres-
ence, voice, matter, manner; power, like all
other orators at times, to fail power al
other times to be overwhelmingly eloquent"
For the Troy Conference he has warm af
fiction, having for years been member OF
this body, and it is no small qualification,
to him, that he anticipates spend
