Henry Ward Beecher lately preach.
ing on the subject of death, made the
following remarks: Generally, there
is no pain at the last moment, for
it seems that the body suffers in pro-
portion to its remoteness from death.
1t is commonly supposed that evil
men die in great horror of their doom.
They don't. Wicked men usually
pass ont of life as TRANQUILITY as any
one else. Tranquility is the law of
decadence. Pain or exquisite pleas
ure at the last are only experienced in
exceptional cases. Men suffer more
every day of their lives than they do
in dying. Every man subject to the
incursions of rheumatic affections, or
the pangs of tooth ache, suffers>a hun
dred times more than he will when he
is on his death bed. No death is more
painless than sudden death. Living
stone records his experience when
sprung upon and struck down by a
lion. The moment when the beast
was upon him was one of the most
exquisite tranquility. No death is
too sudden for him who is doing his
duty. Not the stroke of the lightning,
nor the fall from the precipice. Right
living is the correct road to right dy-
ing, and no man need fear DEATH"

Washington Notes.


] The Senate probably will not yot'
to repeal the Arrears of pension act.
In the House the Apportionment d.
bate flows on, and lessons the chance:
of the Seaton measure becoming {
law.
The House will hold two evening
sessions per week, beginning on the
10th.
The Land Grant question is in 6
fair way to be pretty thoroughly in
vestigated by the House.
Another bill for the payment of the
/ French Spoliation claims has beer
presented to Congress, for the thirty
fourth time.
Two Southern Senators strongly
indorse the Arrears of pension act.
Rather than refund $50, unjustly
taken from a New Hampshire mar
for duties on pair of steers, Congress
spent about $1,000 and finally voted
to repay the sum demanded. =
Senator Hoar presented to-day 8
protest from the National Woman
Suffrage Association of Massachusetts
against any law DISTINGUISHING the
women of Utah, unless the men Of
that Territory be also disfranchised.
Mr.. Miller of New York and Mr..
Dawes presented petitions for Con-
stitutional amendment to prohibit any
abridgement of suffrage on account
of sex.
Senator Blair introduced a joint
resolution to-day, proposing an amend
ment to the constitution prohibiting
the manufacture, sale, importation and
expectation of alcoholic liquors and
other poisonous beverages from and
after 1900.
Guiteau is becoming very much de-
pressed. The Jail warden says that
he never assumes the confident air
which he always has had, except in
the presence of newspaper men. He
is to be cut off from all communica-
ton and that fact depresses him very
much.
Some 300 clerks have been dis
charged from the census bureau, and
nearly all of them are to-day besieg
ing Congressman and Others in au-
thority for recommendations for en-
ployment in the departments already
full. Many of those who have been
discharged are women, some of whom
have families depending on them, and
their discharge makes a dreary out
look for the future.
The case of Cadet Whitaker will
be referred TO the attorney-generalI
for an opinion on the point raised by
the judge advocate general, as to the
of the findings of the court
martial.
1t is now considered possible for
Congress to adjourn by the middle of
July.
The Apportionment bill has come
into the House, and the trouble has
begun. The members from every |
State which loses representation by |
its provisions, are in an excited frame
of mind. They are fighting the inev-
liable. The shifting of political pow
er from the East to the West is pro-
cess which has gone on steadily for a
hundred years, and is likely to con-
t;nue for another century. 1t is part
ly counterbalanced by the growth of
the great cities in the East, but con-
change in the relative weight
of the two sections in Congress is
necessarily effected by each decennial
census.

but should we go into quarantine,
this will be my last letter for some
time probably. Before l close let me
say:
Vermont my native land love thee;
All thy scenes love them still,
Every breeze that floats above thee,
All thy rocks and every hill.
Every friend which there 1 knew,
Every dear familiar haunt,
Every plant which ever grew
On thy green banks dear old Vermont.
Now don't think / am homesick,
that is not so, although Dakota don't
wear the same look that it did before
my brother died. The sun somehow
does not shine so brightly and the
wind takes on sadder sound since
it sweeps over his lonely grave, out on
the boundless prairie. IT'S true we
have cemetery precincts, but it is as
yet fenceless and treeless, and nothing
but low monument, with a stick at
the head to mark the silent resting
place of the dead, to distinguish it
from other places out on the prairie,
and it is suggestive of sad and lonely
thoughts. The lot doubtless be fenced
and beautified with trees and ratings
in the spring, if it is not moved to an
other as there is talk of doing, as it
is said that the ground which it eccu-
pies now has been decided the town
for a Normal school. / have nothing
to say against Dakota in the abstract ;
business is as good here as anywhere.
The interests of the Territory (now so
soon to become state) are onward,
and commerce wears an encouraging
look. lis true farmers are not the
s'big spoke in the wheel as when
crops we're more abundant, but their
turn comes round every time the wheel
