Reunion.

There was a reunion OF the descendants
of Col. Mathew and Capt. Henry Allyn,
at Homer Allyn's, in Northeast Well
ingtor, on Saturday, the 18th, which
proved not only very pleasant but to
the younger members of the families
very entertaining and instructive. A
summons to dinner was beard, and
soon forty people, young and old, were
seated around the sumptuously loaded
tables. All seemed to do justice to
the good things there. John Allyn,
the oldest living representative of
Col. Mathew Allyn and for many years
a resident of st Helena CAL, was called
on for remarks. He responded, ,giying an
outline history of the families, begin
ming with Peltiah Allyn, great grand
father OF both families and one of the
pioneer settlers of Barkhamsted, Conn,
and following down to the present
time. Hiram Allyn was called, also
Pei, Allyn and Mrs. Henry Saxton, of
Oberlin. Each responded and recounted
many incidents of pioneer life in Well
ington as it was found thirty-five and
forty years ago. In this way the day
soon passed, apd one TO be long remem-
bered by those whose good luck it was
to be present. G..

rem were ever so taken to the great heart
of the multitude Of all nations, as this of
our stricken and dead President. The
representatives of every class, from the
peasant to the throne, Emperor, Gar,
King and Queen, Ministers of State,
Corporations, Societies and individuals,
have deluged cable, wire and mail with
heartfelt expressions Of sorrow and
sympathy. Difference of nationally,
political barriers, prejudices bred by
opposite teaching in latitudes widely sep
arated, have all been lost sight of in the
spontaneous humanity that recognized
the monstrous injustice of striking a
man down because he represented a
principle and had been honored by the
people. This common sorrow, and
united pity, has done more to cement the
hearts Of the divided brotherhood OF
States than any or all the studied exper.
ments that have been made. But it ives
costly sacrifice. The self-reliant, cour'
sgeous boy; the noble, useful man; the
brave soldier, the eloquent statesman,
the devout Christian, the honored Presi

whole record has been so clean that hi'

Among the noble host of those
Who perished in the cause Of Right"

TIE post mortem examination revealed
that the ball which entered President
GaIfield's body fractured the eleventh
rib. passed through the spinal column in
fIont of the spinal canal, fracturing the
body of the first lumbar vertebre, driv-
ing a number of small fragments of bone
into the adjacent soft parts, and lodging
just below The pancreas and behind the
peritcnenum, where it had become COM
pletely encysted. The immediate cause
ofdeath was secondary hemorrhage from
one of the mesenteric arteries adjoining
the track of the ball, the blood rupturing
the peritoneum, nearly'a pint escaping
into the abdominal cavity. This hemor-
rhage is thought to have caused the
severe pain of which he complained just
before he became unconscious.

saved thousands of nervous, debilitated, =,
headaching mortals to lives of usefulness
and the full enjoyment of robust health.
If you are weak, nervous, debilItated,
or suffer from Indigestion and dyspepsia

self great injustice if you fail to try this
medicine. You will find it a perfect
panacea for all your troubles. In few
weeks time your shattered nervous sys-
tenn will be restored to a natural and
healthful condition, all symptoms of
dyspepsia and indigestion disappear,
and the possibility of paralysis, ,apoplexy
and other disorders that lead to certain
death, will be removed forever. This
meritOrious compound is a preparation
of Iron and essential vegetables tonics.
1t is the only preparation of Iron that
does not give headache or blacken the
teeth. 1t is called Browns Iron Bitters.
Demand it of your druggist and take no
substitute. 1t will give the greatest
satisfaction, for its effects are lasting,
and not temporary, as is the case with
alcoholic preparations. Browns Iron
Bitters contain no alchol.-Enquirer.

Another Chapter OF the Bonaparte
Romance.

TEE widow of Jerome Napoleon Bona
parte, daughter-in-lsw of jerome aud
Elizabeth Patterson Bonspsrte, died in
Baltimore, Sept, 18th Of paralysis.
She was the daughter of Benjamin
williams, a wealthy shipping merchant
of Baltimore, was married at seventeen,
and was sixty-nine years old at the
time of her death. 1t will be remember
ed, that, though according to American
ideas, she was every way suitable and
worthy to marry as she did the nephew
of the Emperor Napoleon, her proud
mother-in-law was violently opposed to
the match, and notwithstanding the
manner in which she herself had been
ignored and ostracised by the Bonapartes,
was yet ambitious for her son, and was
determined that he should be recognized
and assume what she considered his
rightful place in the royal family.
From infancy to manhood she had
most carefully educated him as Bona
parte, Ito the manor born, and intended
that he should marry some princess
suited to his rank. The boy resided
much abroad, and regarded what he
saw of the mingled pride and poverty,
the parade and the restraints of royal
life with the strong common sense of q
true American, and he surprised and
shocked his mother by loving and mar
rying in what she considered a plebian
way, though the wedding was brilliant
society event, and tho union a happy
one. The husband died in 1870, and
his mother in 1879. Mrs Bonspsrte
leaves two sons and fortune of g., 900,
600. The eldest son, named after his
father and grandfather, graduated at
West Point, was distinguished Grim
can officer, and served in various for
eign campaigns, lives in Paris and his
wife is a granddaughter of Daniel
Webster. The other son, Charles Joseph
Bonaparte, is twenty one years younger
than the first, is graduate of Harvard,
and practises law in Baltimore. His
wife was Miss Ellen Claiming Day,
of Boston. Mrs. Bonsparte had been
in failing heath for some time, and
both sons were with her at the time OF
her death.

The Irreparable Loss.

q
The wounded President released at last
from the pain, the fever and the chill, is
safe IN the bosom of Him Who said, "Come
unto me, and will give you rest" And
yet it cannot be said that the long agony is
over. The poor old mother, the faiherless
boys, the tender daughter, and, more than
all, the healtbroken wife-ihese, with an
that they have suffered, have not yet
fully entered into the lonely darkness OF
their bereavement. Its shadows they now
but family comprehend. Surrounded by
physicians, attendants, friends; the sym.
patty of the whole civilized world poured
upon them; a many strsnded cable OF
prayer ascending in iheir behalf; the con.
fusing pageanhy of the last obsequies NOT

loss, and for them the long agony is not
over, but just begun. 1t was something

dead that is SO hard to bear. Just so long
as there was life the family kept heart
they would not give him up. The poor,
pain-tortured wreck was still theirs to
love, to pity, to pray for. There was inf

than the separation of de,ith-thc despair
of losing him altogether. God ply them

this man our President we have robbed

less by way of reparation than to provide
suitably, amply, for the education of the
children and maintenance of the family
and allow them to have no pant in paying

ages and started for EIberon. They gathered on
the porch discussing the situation. DIR. Boyn-
ton had a few moments before told them that
the end was approaching, and all waited with
bated breath to hear what was coming. One
of the doorkeepers came over on a run to get
carriage to summon the members of the Cab
met, and in less than five minutes Warren
Young, one of the Presidents executive clerks,
came out of the cottage and walked rapidly
toward the telegraph Office, bearing in his
hand some dispatches.
"What is the matterl" asked one of the
newspaper men.
ITS all over" said Young, in a voice that
showed his emotion. He fled his dispatch at
lO;55, saying: "These dispatches to the fami-
ly must go first.n The wire was Immediately
surrendered to the Government, and the CORE
spondents, in order to send bulletins, took
the messages back to the West End, two miles
away. The greatest confusion prevailed; the
road was thronged with vehicles going and
coming, and collisions were almost unavoida-
bic, but happily no serious accidents happened.
MIR. Morris, the Long Branch undertaken,
was summoned Immediately, and he will have
charge of the remains until tomorrow, when
York, who have been telegraphed for, will
arrive. The body will be embalmed immedi-
ately thereafter. An autopsy will take place
tomorrow afternoon. DIR. Curtis, of Wash
ington, and the three surgeons who were for
Woodward and Reyburn, have been tele-
graphed for, and they will be present when
the autopsy is made. The arrangements for
the funeral have not been fully completed
The wishes Of Mrs. Garfield will be respected

An Unexpected Bonanza.

There was pretty well-authenticated
report on the street last evening that a
man living in the northwestern part of
the CiTy-up near the big water-tank of
the Ophir Company-was engaged in
repairing and setting back dilapidated
bulkhead in front of his lot, when he
struck into a three-foot vein of decom-
posed material completely filed with
pure gold. This is said to be the same
kind of rich vein stuff that was en-
countered near the surface when the
first discovery was made at the Ophir
of early days. The man had been at
work at the Union shaft, but being laid
off concluded to tix up things little
about his house and lot. If all we hear
be true he has made very good wages,
as it is said he got about SIS, 200 before
the Ophir management heard of the
matter and requested him to desist from
his labors. His wife also participated
in the toll of extracting the shining
metal from the little home-mine, and il
is said has half-gallon glass jar nearly
full of gold that she herself pounded
out of gathered Jumps. 1t is hard to
keep" ducks out of a dough dish," and
we are informed that some workmen
found their way back to the vein night
before last and got out about $1,000.
The vein is supposed to be a tender
that made out toward that point from
the old Ophir vein, and this is doubtless
the case. 1t might never have been
discovered but for the tumbling down
of the old bulkhead. One old surface
tunnel passed through the ground some
distance to the northward of the de-
posit and another to the southwark.
Thus the rich pocket was left concealed
between. Had the discoverer covered
up his find with new bulkhead so con-
structed as to leave a small '' coyote
hole" by which to pass in and out, he
might have worked his vein for months
had he used proper caution in his min
ing operations. u Virginia City (NeU.)
