HARD WORB AND SUICIDE.

A poor girl, who was fshed from the
Hudson River a day or two ago, ex-
planned her attempt at suicide by saying
that she worked very hard every day for
hardly enough money to keep her alive.
The unfortunate wretch thus snatched
from a watery grave, and all others OF
her miserable class, must have been
greatly cheered up and strengthened for
a desperate struggle against fate when
they read the following cheerful review
OF the circumstances in the New York
Herald: millions of people are work
ing hard every day with results about as
discouraging; but all such should remem-
Der that nearly every one who ever be-
came rich and great did likewise, and
would hardly have attained wealth and
comfort had not poverty followed them
like a cruel taskmaster and forced them
to improve their own condition. Pow
erty is almost the only sharpcner OF hui
man wits"

OBITUARY.

George 2. Marsh, the American Min.
lister to italy, who died suddenly at
Vallambrosa on the oath of July, was
born in Woodstock, Vt, March II, 1901,
and was therefore 81 years old. He was
graduated from Dartmouth College in

aligned to become Minister resident to
~Constantinople under President Taylor.
He served four years at that post. In
1852 he went on a special mission to
Greece. During his residence abroad he
travelled widely and gave much time to
the study OF the Scandinavian language
and literature. He was one of the new
State House Commissioner Of Vermont,
and for two years State Railroad Com
missioner. In 1857 he was appointed by
the Governor Of Vermont to prepare a
report to the Legislature on the artificial
propagation of fishes. In 1860 Dart.
mouth conferred the degree of IL. D.
upon him. In the following year Presi-
dent Lincoln appointed him Minister to
Italy, where he renamed till his death, a
period of twenty-one years.
Mr.. Marsh's contributions to literature
were voluminous and varied. Besides
his public addresses and speeches and
newspaper contributions he published
ga Compendious Grammar of the Old
Northern or Icelandic Language" "Tho
Camel; His Organization, Habits and
Uses, Considered with Reference to His
Introduction into the United States"
Lectures on the English Language"
'AIan and Nature" "Tho Earth as

4 traveller, just arrived from Siortle,
reports that Arab Pasha issued a mani
festo declaring that khedive Tewfk has
sold Egypt to the British and retired to
England. Arab therefore ordered the
people to obey him until the Prophet en-
lightened him to find a worthier khedive.
Six muders of Upper Egypt have ordered
a supply Of five hundred horses and six
hundred and fifty camels, to reinforce
Arab Pasha. Murders are constantly
occurring in the railway trains. Mobs

of a New Jersey railroad to the good old
president.
SWhy. my dear sir" said the pious old
man, Il can't understand what the obiec-
ton to them is; in fact I think they are
absolutely necessary. Will you tell me
why you think the road would be benefited
by not lighting the lamps when the train
passes through the tunnels"
"Well, SIR" replied the observing super
intendent, you know that our road carries
a great many young folks!"
swell, yes, I know that"
SWELL, you never have seen them hug and
kiss each other in the daylight on the cars

"No, can't say that I have" .
"Then, don't you see, if we don't light
up they would be more apt 70 patronize
our road, and the profits would be more

Him, yes. Very true. In future, if any
conductor allows a lamp to be lighted in
his train while going through the tunnels,
discharge him at once" said the pious
president.
