DEATHS


In memory Of JOSEPH l.. CARROLL,
who departed this life on Friday, November
26th, 1880, aged As years.
Through number of years we lived as
neighbors, companions and friends, and we
deeply mourn his loss. But we have the
rich consolation that our loss Is his eternal
gain, and in all our association we found
him to be the same, Il just, honest man Of
the strictest integrity OF character; warm
genial friend, a pure christian gentleman !;
courteous in his manners, affectionate in his
disposition firm and confiding as a friend
We watched by his bed-sid for weeks dur
ing his painful illness, at which time he never
lost sight Of his blessed Saviour, and bowed
submlssively 10 his Heavenly Fathers will
When asked how he felt, he would hold up
his hands and say, 81 am only waiting for
that great messenger TO relieve me of my suf-
ferings." Death is the solace Of all earthly
wounds, the awakening to n higher life, and
we can but feel that he has joined his loved
ones gone before him; he has gone from us !;
his form lies pale and cold his eyes are for
ever closed, no more to be met with tears,
and his body never 10 suffer pain We
know that he is happier than those deserted
ones he has left behind. The community
his family an honored adviser and comforter,
and left his orphan boys 10 the care Of Him
whose ways are inscrltable and past find
ing out, and we trust He will prepare them
20 meet him in his heavenly home where
sorrow and pain are never known.
Sleep on sleep on / would not wake thee,
would not call thee back again
10 linger in this world Of sin, 10 feel once
more its lows and main

That Suicide Again.-It ha

That suicide Again.-lt has at last
been definitely settled as 10 the identity
OF the man who committed suicide near
Knowles Station. The following which
we take from the Washington Star, explains
this matter
"a Star reporter called at the eating saloon
OF Mr.. kunzig last Friday night, and learned
that the man described had been in the habit
OF going there for his meals, but that he had
suddenly disappeared. Ii was further learned
that his lodging place was at Mr.. G. Rup-
perts, 1011 + street Calling at the latter
place Ia tailor shop twas ascertained that the
name Of the deceased was Henry Schmiek,
German tailor, about 55 years old, single,
and for more than twenty years in the en-
ployment Of the late Christopher CammAck,
on + between 14th and 18th streets. He was
very quiet and inoffensive man, of the
strlctest integrity, and was as much respect
ed by Mr.. Cammack that at his death he re-
quested that Schmiek might be provided
with food and lodgings during his lifetime
at the Cammack House The deceased had
the weakness of occasionally drinking too
much, and during such times wander into
the country, he would stay until his merry
making was over, and ON returning would
evince sorrow and shame at his weakness.
For some reason he had left the house of
Mrs. Cammack, and for two years had been
working for Mrs. Rupert, and in one of his
weak spells had wandered TO the place where
he was found, as stated. He left some effects
IN money and papers Of value, but had no
relatives in this country"

PRINCE DEMIOoFE's GAMBLING.

A dispatch states that the Russian Prince
Demidoff recently lost 81, 100000 at BAG
carat, in a single night. This Prince Dem
idoff is one of the wealthiest of the Rus
sian nobility, and by all accounts very
eccentric and highly disagreeable person.
He had splendid palace at San Donate,
in Italy, and accumulated there one of the
most magnificent art collections in Europe.
His pictures, statues, gems, carvings,
were world-renowned. But this very
fame finally disguised him so that he
resolved to sell off the entire collection.
He declared that he was bored to death
by people coming to see his rarities, and
so about year ago he caused everything
to be sold at auction. The sale lasted
several weeks, and was attended by all the
collectors and virtuosi of Europe. The
aggregate receipts were extremely large,
and it was believed by several good judges
that Demidoff had actually realized a
very smart profit upon his original invest
ments. No question of pecuniary benefit
was present in his mind, however, for he
has always been too wealthy to enjoy the
delights of that form Ct speculation. If,
indeed, he has sustained as heavy loss at
play as the telegraph alleges, it will make
very little difference to him; and if he
should gamble away the whole of his prop
erty, and then go and hang himself, it
would make no difference at all to that
world which he has never benefited by his
eyistence

CHARGES AGAINST HANCOCK.


OF course it is inevitable that every
Presidential candidate should have charges
preferred against him. A considerable
part of the campaign is necessarily devoted
to ascertaining whether such charges have
any truth in them. Experience shows
that certain percentage OF campaign
charges is true, and this is natural, since 10
candidate can be found who is altogether
free from blemish. The present tendency
is to accuse General Hancock OF the very
kind Of laches which the Democrats
thought would be barred by his nomina.
ton. He was chosen because Of his al
legged loyal record, and he is already
rouudly accused of disloyal proceedings.
Apart from the question of the truth of
the charges, it is clearly not surprising
that they should be made, for Hancock is
VIGOROUSLY the candidate of the South,
aud when the South chooses Union GEN
eral for its leader, it becomes not merely
prudent but necessary to review his record
with suspicious care. It is row alleged
that during the rebellion he proposed, en-
the removal of Mcclellan from command,
to march upon Washington and depose
Lincoln and Stanton. It is further as
serted that in 1877 he informed General
Sherman that he regarded Tiiden as the
Sacramento daily record-union. [volume] (Sacramento [Calif.]) 1875-1891, 1880-07-07

rightful President, and that if the latter
should take the oath, and then call upon him
for armed support, he would consider it
his duty to obey the order This second
story fortunately admits of refutation or
establishment Ii Hancock ever made
any such statement to General Sherman,
the latter of course must remember it.
We do not regard this story as being
highly probable, for we doubt whether in
such case General Sherman would not
have been apt to consider that he too had
a duty to perform, and that this duty re-
CURED the prompt exposure of his subordi-
mates designs, at the very least. 1t is,
however, in order to point out that such
doipgs as are now ascribed to Hancock are
precisely of the kind most likely to endear
him to the Confederate Brigadiers Who
procured his nomination, and that an in
flexible loyalty To the Union has never
hitherto had any attraction for that class
of people. In seeking the reasons which
induced the South to insist upon the selec-
ton of this man, it is undoubtedly neces-
sary to look beneath the surface, and to
specially inquire for motives such as are
most likely to influence those who still
hope to reverse the verdict of the war
