The Middletown Transcript rays
None of the biographical sketches O.
Che Late Bishop Levi Scott, publishaC
since the death of that venerable di
vine, have made mention of the fact
that he was, when quite young man,
engaged for time In teaching school
A correspondent of the Transcript
writes that during the years 1823-4
the Bishop, who was himself a close
student, taught school in the family of
MIR. Arnold s. NAudain, who lived
about two miles south OF Midietown,
where X. l.. Naudain now resides. Al
this time he was studying for the
ministry under instruction of the Rev.
Mr.. Naudain.
Among his pupils, beside the chill
dren OF Mr.. Naudain, were John A.
Reynolds, A. Snow Nandain, DR.. An.
drew Nandain, w. II. Blackiston and
John u. Crouch, all now deceased save
Mr.. Reynolds and A. Snow Naudain.
1t was probably about this time that
Rev. Mr.. Naudain built, with his own
means' Salem church, eight miles
southwest of Middletown, and filled the
appointment. In this church Rev.
Levi Scott issaid to have preached his
1rst sermon. Our correspondent writes
hat he was given the above facts by
,ome of the Bishop'H pupils, and by the |
Bishop himself, with whom he spent |
many pleasant hours.

The American FAcet.

"ASliINGTON, July 21.
1t is stated at the Navy Department
to-day that Rear Admiral Nicholson,
commanding the American fleet al
Alexandria. Egypt, was instructed to
look afGer the protection of American
interests there and thatif he mixed I'M
in the war farther than that it was en-.

Nothing official has been received from
him since the day the bombardmeut
began, when he announced that fact
and also acknowledged the receipt of
the departments instructions to look
after American interests Nor has
the department communicated with
him since that time. Secretary Chandler
is not prepared to say that Admiral
Nicholson exceeded his authority in
assisting the British in patrolling the
streets of Alexandria and in certain
other acts until he has been officially
advised of the attending circumstances
Certain naval officials assert that
Admiral Nicholson has in nowise com
this country and that he did |
lothing beyond what was necessary
or the protection of the American
Consulate.

| NEW YORK, July 21.--James T
Walsh, who, in a quarrel, killed hi
sweetheart, Barbara Groenthal, at so.
Willoughby street, Brooklyn, January
., 1881, was hung in the Raymond
Street Jail, Brooklyn, at ten O'Clock
this morning, He was not quite twenty
years of age. .-...
During the earlier part of the morn
ing Walsh was with his spiritual advis.
ers. He prayed quite frequently for
his mother. The parting of mother and
son was painful in the extreme. The
priest who witnessed it, and who was
purposely present., said that he hopes
he may never be spectator of another
such a scene. go, mother, now, and
don't come back again; try and forget
that was ever born" said the wretch
ed youth. "Oh, no, my child, 1 won't
CO."
II can't leave you. God help me. Is
1t possible we are to 5e torn assunder
never to meet again ?" and she clasped
him in her arms. " Yes, mother, we
shall meet, hope, in heaven. After all,
l was not such bNl boy. Forgive me
and pray for me when am gone that
Goo may forgive me too" This scene
was so prolonged that the deputies in
charge were obliged to separate the
mother and child.
The scene at the galloHs was one
such as nobody would wish TO see again
walsh had hardly been placed under
the rope when the tall youth who cut
the rope which sent Sindrain and
Leighton into eternity at the TomDs
flushed forward with such haste as to
push aside Father Gallagher, who was
silently reciJing the De Profundis.
nOne moment, please" cried Father
Donahoe, VII look of Indignation.
The Sheriff noticed the Interruption
and motioned the exe,uttoner to stand
aside
Father, into Thy hands 1 commend
my spirit, Oh, James, like a good boy,
repeat this anu kiss this crucifx," said |
Father Donahue, earnestly, al the same
lime throwing his left arm around
" Walsh's shoulder. But Walsh seemed
iazed and the spectators thought he
vas about to fall. "Father, oh Father,
nto Thy hands commend nv spirit. >;
'epeated Father Dnnahue, and he
pressed the cruCitix to Walsh's lips
,hree times.
The effect was magical "Father,,"
aid Walsh, with terrible effort, as if
he word WAS choking him, and he sue
eeded in repeating the prayer word for
SOrd after the priest.
"Now kiss the crucitix and pepea,
ne prayer once more," said the priest.
Walsh complied this time with great
esolution, the two priests fell upon
heir knees, the black cap was pulled
own and Walsh WAS before his Crea-
Or.

Alliance, respectfully submit to your
consideration and ask the public read
ing of the following;

/ The Alliance presented to the last

signed by a majority OF the voters ask.
ing for Local Option. This emphatic
expression of public sentiment was a
safe basis for legislation, and a guaran-
tee that the law asked for would be
faithfully executed. But the Legisla-
ture failed to enact the law.
A new Legislature will soon be
chosen. On you, fellow citizens. in
part will rest The responsibility of nom.
inatlng and e.ecdng its members. Wei
nope for change of mind
or a change of men within our
legislative halls on the temperance
question. Aud we appeal to you as
good citizens to use your influence to
this end. 1t is not necessary that anv
old party be destroyed, nor that tenn
peTaDce men abandon their parties, nor
that new party be. organized. But it |
IL necessary that the men of all parties
nominate candidates who are willing
to execute the ascertained will of the
people on this question.
IL will be well for you, fellow citi.
zens, to realize the fact that TODAY
maJy temperance men are seriously
asking, Ito what extent should party
allegiance interfere with moral obliga-
tlon? Aud should not duty to our
fellow men and duty to God hold
drst place in the esteem of all good
citiz ns?"
The outcome will certainly be that
temperance men will vote hereafter ir.
respective of party lines for Legislators
who will do all in their power to sup
Dress by law the liquor traffic. And
he party which nolninates such men '
will retaio their truest friends. /
We therefore request this convention {
o recognize in their platform the right t
II majority of the voters of the State, I
II OF single county, to say what the i
aW should be within their limits on 8
he liquor traffic. And we further re-. d
ommend to you that the name of no O
