able to forecast.
Our people can we'll exclaim in
the language of the p' ct:
Good mother weep. Cornelia of the South,
For thou, indeed. hast lost jewel son.
The Gracchi great were not 50 much be-
loved,
Nor with more worthy deeds fheir honor
won.
Thy stalwart son deserves a Romans
fame,
| For Cato was not more supreme!y jnSt;
Augustus was not gre ater in the state.
Nor Brutus truer to The public trust.
II is eminently proper, and duty
which the living owe to the memory
of those who in their lifetime were
good aud great, and who achieved
distinction, and filled high position
with credit to themselves and benefit
to their country, that the memory Of
their noble deeds should be recorded.
What IS a country without the mem
ory of its distinguished men and
public benefactors? What a blank
in the history OF Greece and Rome
without the biography and special
mention of their philosophers, ora
tors, poets, statesmen, and heroes.
It would have been skeleton dives
ted of those vital parts essential to
form, lie and beauty.
The names of Washington, Ad-
ans, Franklin, Jay, Hamilton, Jeffer.
son, Webster, Clay, Lincoln, Sew
ard, Chase and Garfield will be han
ded down from generation 20 gener-
alton and transmitted as syno-
nyms of great ideas, liberty and self
government, while free institutions
exist upon the face of the earth.
But the subject of these memorial
services, was stricken down while in
the vigor of manhood, and at the ze-
nitn of his power, because of his
fidelity to the principles of civil ser,
vice reform and because he had re
fused to appoint an unworthy man
to office.
o most base, wicked, cruel and
infamous deed
A mother is robbed of her son, a
wife Of her husband, children of
their parent a whole people of their
honored chief, and he himself Of his
life, to crafty the malice and re
venge OF creature that it were base
hattery to cali "man."
But let US not despair, for "God
is just;" 81 will repay saith the
Lord !"
! To his mother he gave duty, to his
wife affection, to his children indul-
ttgenue, - his friends faith, and to his
country his life. But death triumphs
only over mans mortal frame. It's
elements dissolve and commingle
with their mother earth. Dust re-
turns to dust, but this is the limit to
deaths power. The man, his char
acter and achievements still survive
in memory, in influence, and far
reaching results. Great deeds, grand
heroic words, and thoughts beautiful
or sublime strike responsive chords
and are re-echoed in other sympa
thetic souls. They live and inspire,
mould, guide and sway present and
future generations. The manly form
of James A. Garfield will be known
no more. He rests from his labors
and conflicts. Triumphs and honors
cannot allure him to earthly scenes
His mortal remains are moulderinp
E IN the dust, but his lofty character
his noble patriotism, his example anc
influence will live and remind u.
that manly sincerity, integrity, anc
honesty of purpose, ennoble and ex
alt the possessor more than high DO
sition and earthly honors.

Getting Desperate.

The vote in the New York Legislature remains
prOpOrtionately about the same as heretofore,
but the total vote is small, on account of many
absences. But the desperate strait of the COnk-
lDgites is betrayed by the means they are re-
sorting TO, to stay the tide of opposition. Last
week, the York tactics of Kansas were suddenly
sprung, which, although they succeeded once in
this State, have become stale and thin. A
Conkling member arose in the Legislature, sent
mp package of 3d. SOC to the Speakers stand,
and proclaimed that it had been given him to
influence him to change his vote from Platt to
Depew. Instead of the sensation and stampede
that was expected to follow it, everybody ap-
preciated the gauziness of the performance, and
it was received with a snicker of incredulity,
Instead of causing stampede from Depew, it
increased his vote one. The Speaker, who is
conkling man, appointed an investigating COM
mittee, composed almost wholly of friends of
Conkling, who are delaying an investigation,
although the accused persons are demanding an
immediate hearing. 1t is hoped, by the delay,
to stop the tide of petitions that are pouring in
from constituents to members to not vote for the
return of Conkling; but, thus far, the effort has
been to the disadvantage of Conkling. Suffi-
cient has been developed by the investigation to
show that the bribery charge was fixed up by a
few of the COnkling men. The more abject of
Conkling's vassals are freely talking of combi-
nation with the Democrats, to elect Conkling
and Democrat to the Senate. This is the "Stal-
wart" forlOrn hope TO beat the BOlters,' and
"vindcate" Conkling. But that will fail. 1t
is doubtful if ten Conkling men can be found in
the Legislature who will consent to walk into
the open jaws of damnation, by such an act of
freacherv
