Indication that it was to be the vener-
able ladys last sickness, her physicians
notified her surviving relatives. and
they came to the old-fashioned man

The patients death was perfectly
painless, and it seemed to those who

rather as if she had fallen asleep
than died. At the bedside were the
brothers of the deceased lady. Daniel
Leroy and William Henry Leroy; Mrs.
Jacob Leroy, her sister-in-law, and Mr.
and Robert Edgar. The funeral will
take place Wednesday morning from

The Grave of Mrs. Surratt.

The following relative to Mrs. Sur
ratt. who was hung in 1865 with the
Lincoln conspirators, appears in the
Washington Star: In Mount Olivet
Cemetery, on the Blandensburg road,
repose the remains of Mrs. Mary Sur
ratt, who, it will be remembered, was
hung on the 21st day of July, 1865, as
one OF the conspirators implicated in
the assassination Of President Lincoln.
Her body was buried in the arsenal
grounds near the scaffold, with those of
Payne, Harold and Atzerodt; and sub
sequently Wirz, of Andersonville no.
toriety, was buried near them. While
the bodies were lying there plain head
boards were placed over their graves.
When the old penitentiary building
was torn down the remains of John
Wilkes Booth, buried in the end of the
building, and the bodies above named
were all moved into one of the large
store-houses of the arsenal and placed
under the tagging. About the close of
President JOhnsOn's administration the
bodies were surrendered to the friends
or relatives of the deceased persons,
and were removed elsewhere-those of
WIZ and Mrs. Surratt were taken to
to Mount Olivet. When the body of
the. latter was exhumed black ribbon
tied In a bow-knot was removed from her
dress as a memento. A number ef her
former friends we're present when the
relnterment was made, in lot at the
extreme northwest corner of the ceme-
terry. Stones marked with the letter
IS" were set at the corners of the lot.
With no other mark the spot was diff
cult to find without guidance, and Mr..
Duffy, the sexton at the time, and for
several years afterward, was frequently
called upon to point out the spot where
Mrs. Surratt was buried About 1875,
Mr.. Gustavus Craney, stone-cutter re-
siding in this city, was engaged in put
ting up some head-stones in the ground
and MIR. Duffy called his attention to
the want of stone to mark Mrs. Sur
rats grave. Mr.. Craney agreed to cut
the letters on stone if Mr.. Duffy pro-
cured one. Mr.. Duffy having procured
a stone, it was chiseled by Mr.. Craney,
who cut the name "Mrs. Surratt," upon
it and set it at the head of the grave.
Since then there have been two inter
ments on the lot-one, grandchild OF
Mrs. Surratt, and the other DR.. Thomas,
of New Orleans.

The RAGE for New Words.

A few months ago, somebody in En-
gland hit upon the word cIOtaCre as the
French expression for the contemplated
parliamentary measure of shutting of
debate at a certain stage. This word
was caught up-ike an inspiration, and
the change rung on it. 1t w2s fitted
into all possible phrases and sentences,
and set out in all possible ways, since
the appearance of any leading word, in
public discussion, that has not previ-
ously been familiar, produces a sort of
mania in English journalism, whole ar
ticles being written for the purpose of
introducing it, and of showing respect
for it or acquaintance with it. The swim
ming of new planet into an astrOno-
mer's ken is the thing most comparable
to the injection of a wore like cL0ture
into British politics. Rut still more re.
Gently some other bright person discov-
cred that the word closure was good
substitute for cLot,we, and so used it.
The effect was again extraordinary.
All the British leader writers rushed
madly to be the first in talking Of the
closure instead of their previous
cloture. Their articles were no longer
speckled with this key-word in all the
glory of italics and circumfiex accent;
and now it is instructive to see how
the later equivalent has almost every
where dethroned the earlier British
journalism. Such are the fortunes of
words In our days of repetitions and
hasty limitations.
