OBITUARY.
Death Of AN Estee,ne,I Citizen.

On last Friday mornin. Mr.. Cyrus Rut-
ter, of East Earl township, departed this
life from i bronchial affection of the throat.
The deceased was not ailing long, and the
case was not considered serious; but he
gradually grew worse, though medical
skill was used to its utmost extent. In
the death of this citizen the community
loses 4 faithful servant and 4 firm supporter
of the right; the church is deprived Of a
devoted member; and the family of an
affcctiOnatc father and kind husband.
Those who knew him best claimed him to
be reserved and unassuming, generous and
kind hearted. He was Il firm Democrat
and 4 strong supporter Of Democratic
principles which he earnestly desired
might be triumphant in tho approaclIin"
election. He leaves behind wife and
five children to lament his departure.
The funeral took place on Monday, the
remains being Inferred in the Lutheran
graveyard Of New Holland. The cere-
monies were conducted by Rev. J. W.
Hassler, of the Lutheran church. of which
deceased was member.

a Plea for shade.

An intelligent gentleman Of this city,
who has good taste, bcgs us to urge upon
councils the prOpricty Of securing the
plantin. Of shade trees around Centre
square. He brOils in going to and from
the postOiiice and thinks that believers in
a future place Of hot torment ought to-
have show for cool, refreshing and UNI
braSeOus rest in this word. lie thinks
that people who have dead sure thing
Of escaping the heat beyond tlelriver Styx
may patiently endure the temperature of
Centre square during the dog days. but
the moderately wicked can't. Shade
trees would be ornamental and use
ful, and the generous planting Of them
would greatly add to the many COM
forts and beauties of Lancaster
which attract strangers hithcr and keep
them here. Reading has her main streets
covered with light awnings ON the pave-
ments to protect her people from sun
strokes. Trees would bc hantlsOmer. Our
few remaining Oldest inhabitants tell of a
time when Centre square was surrounded
by noble shade trees under the ample
shade Of which our fOrefathers enjoyed
the pleasure Of living comfortably, which
We their degenerate children too often
lose sight Of i'm our desire to be more styL
isll. Those old fellows must have believed
fully in the philosophy which is the text
Of our correspondents appeal for shade,

to regulate their internal affairs and to
control their domestic institutions. But
they fail to show that any Democratic
national, state or local convention has
made any broader or more comprehensive
declaration of states rights than is con-
tained in the platform upon which the
Republican party came into power in
1850. The Chicago convention of that
year, in the fourth plank of its platform,
declared that 1.-THE maintenance invio-
late of the rights of the states, and es-
pecially the rights of each state to order
and control its own domestic institutions,
according to its own judgment exclusively.
is essential to that balance of powers
upon which theperfection and endurance
of our political fabric depends ;" and it
went on to denounce the lawless invasion
of the states and territories as grave
crime. No better Democratic doctrine
can be found anywhere than this, and
yet its incorporation into a platform to-
day would be met with bitter opposition
from the men who have forgotten what
the Republicanism of their fathers WAS.
