I'm NIemOriaml


 Miss Sara O. Eaton, whose funeral will be attended to-day at her late residence, 761 Chapel street, was the daughter of Prof. Amos Eaton, the distinguished pioneer in the cause of natural science in this country, and was also the sister of the late General A. B. Eaton, U. s. A. The life and character of the deceased deserve more than passing notice.
 To rare natural endowments, and culti- vated mind and taste, were added the warm, generous sympathies of loving heart. Few characters have combined gentleness and re- tiring manner with such resolution and men, tai force. Her physical constitution was very delicate, but she seemed to possess a re- markable power of overcoming difficulties and achieving success. This power was of ten exercised in her life as a teacher, voca- tion which she early chose. In this relation she was connected with Troy Seminary, N. Y, where she graduated; with Monticello Sem- mary, one of the oldest literary institutions in the West, and with the Rochester ladies' seminary, N. Y. This last mentioned insti- tuition was established mainly through her in fuence, and she continued it's acting princi- pal until failing health required her to aban- don her chosen life-work. Many of her pupils scattered over the country will hear of her death with sorrow, and to many of them, es- pecially among her correspondents, 1t will be regarded as a personal loss. They will re- call her influence in awakening the love of the beautiful in nature and in life, and her power of inspiring them with something of her own enthusiasm in the pursuit of truth, and above all her strong desire to prepare them as noble Christian women to serve well their generation in the different relations of life
 During her residence in this city as an in valid1 she was deprived of the opportunity of attending public religious services, and of the privilege of nningling in social circles; great deprivation to her, whose social and relig- ious tastes were perhaps the most decided ele- ments in her character.
 Her long continued illness was borne with singular patience, and hardly seemed to dis turb her habitual serenity, or mar the sweet ness of her disposition. She was long accus- toned to think of the near approach of death, and when told that the end was very near she joyfully exclaimed "Good news 1! shall soon be at rest.''
 The love of her Saviour was the ground of hope that all would be well with her when she passed through the swellings of the dark river The world is brighter and better that such..spirits have lived in it i; it seems darker when such have departed.

From the Troy (N. Y.l Times.
 Letters pour in daily, sometimes by doz- ems, scores and hundreds, to Dr. David Ken nedy, of Rondout, N. Y. in grateful acknow1- edgment of the great benefits received from his '.Favorite Remedy" And they illustrate the power of the medicine in some new and perhaps hitherto untested phase of operation. But it is when sufferer comes miles to tell the story of his deliverance in person, to grasp the doctor by the hand and greet him as 8 true and valued friend that the interest in his case deepens and multipGes.

GAkPEI kUUMN i!
 On Monday, April M, our
 New Carpet Rooms will be
 thrown open to the public.
 On that day Gor which event so many
 economically inclined housekeepers have
 been anxiously waiting) and during the week
 the most astounding bargains will be offered
 We will in many instances sell our Carpets
 at less prices than the same goods are
 owned by other dealers. We represent in our stock every standard grade of Carpets manufactured, from the Finest Administers down to the cheapest Hemps and Ingrains. Our stock is entirely new and fresh, no old styles, no old goods. A comparison of our prices with those of other dealers will show purchasers plainly the value of their invest ments. We will mention two of the very | many substantial reasons why we can sell Carpets cheaper than any dealer in the city : FIRST-Other merchants are entirely de- pendent upon the PROFITS of their Carpet Sales to pay high rents and other expenses, ! which with us is not the case
 SECOND-Our Carpet Department is run exclusively in the interest of our customers and for their accommodation only. We pur- chase our Carpets in larger quantities than
 any ordinary dealer dare attempt, and when | making our purchases our presence is felt in l the inner channels of trade, where the foot. l steps of the Retail Carpet Dealer are seldom
 heard, and where the rarest gems are to be l found. This is 8 tide in the affairs of Carpets
 only to be met with perhaps once in a life time.
 Therefore all who are in want of Carpets at but slight advance above actual cost oi production should not fail to examine ou1
 stock before making purchases. Our Carpet Room is the Largest, Best Lighted and Best Ventilated Room in New England, three large skylights furnishing an abundance ot ! light by which to make your selection.

Isabella and Pedro.
An old-Fashioned Romance Run to Seed
[San Francisco Argonaut.l

[San Francisco Argonaut.]
The last gleam of day was silvering the wa
ters Of the Guadalquiver, at the mouth of
which stands the ancient city of Valencia, as
the congregation was slowly departing from
the cathedral of Saint Cecilius. Among the
last of the worshipers was a young female
closely shrouded in a mantilla. In her hand
she carried fan of the most exquisite work
manship; behind her hobbled an old duenna,
who with difficulty kept pace with the tripping
feet Of Donna Isabella, for such was the name
of the maiden. Close by her side walked
young and noble cavalier, whose deep, dark
eye was riveted upon her, while ever and anon
glances of recognition were exchanged between
them, till at length the suspicion of the old la
dy was aroused, who, seizing the arm Of her
young charge, quilted her not until they
reached mansion in the Ieighborhood OF the
ever verdant Glorietta.
Just as Donna Isabella was ascending the
steps leading to her mansion, she dropped her
fan, as il by accident. The opportunity was
at once seized by the young cavalier, who, lift
ing it, unseen by the duenna, slipped within
its folds billet, and, kneeling, presented it to
the blushing damsel. .
"You will not fail to meet me as the note
says" he whispered beseechingly. "You un-
derstand?'
81 tumble" was the maids reply.
That night, when the bell of Miquilet tolled
the midnight hour, Isabella stood in her balco-
ny, which overhung the garden. A slight
movement was soon heard among the orange
foliage, and tall figure, shrouded in flow
ing martle, advanced and stood beneath the
balcony.

scarcely audible from terror.

THAT morn you will never see," cried a
man who advanced from an umbrageous
shrubbery close by, and struck Pedro power
full blow under the left ear.
The unfortunate man sunk senseless into the
arms of his assailant, who bore him swiftly
away.
The next morning Donna Isabella was bur-
led in grief and a percale wrapper. Corsetless,

exclaimed, despairingly. "Who could have
