John Howard Payne's Grave.

A correspondent OF the leading York
shire paper, the Leeds Mercury, writing
lately from Tunis, says in regard to a
visit to the foreign cemetery there:
For the first time since I came to
Tunis great wave of home sickness
swept over me. How far off vel and
the silent dead beneath my feet-seemed
to be from the land of our birth? And
even as this thought was surging
through my heart, my eyes fell upon
searching. There was plain stone slab,
surrounded by a little bed of heliotrope
and dwarf roses, and it bore an inscrip-
ton telling how beneath it lay Col.
John Howard Payne, citizen of the
United States of America and how this
monument had been erected by his
grateful fellow countrymen in honor Of
the author of Home Sweet Home
Strange, indeed, is the irony of fate.
We shape our own destinies in fancy;
we plan and plot and labor and contrive,
and each one of US for himself has
formed his own idea of the end at which,
in due season, in the fullness of his
time, he is to arrive, and probably not
once, in the whole history of the human
race, has that end, when it did come,
been in harmony with the visions thus
INDUCED in. But surely, of all the
strange freaks of malicious fortune,
there has been none stranger, none sad
der, than that which sent the man who
wrote Home Sweet Home to die an
exile on African soil, and which has left
him o grave here among our Eng lish
dead at Tunis p -.
Since poor Payne died on the shores of
Africa, hundreds Of millionaires have
passed away who are now utterly forgot
ten, as are the writer's of hundreds of
pretentious works in poetry and prose,
now not worth the paper they are writ
ten on; but the impoverished African
consul's name remains household word
wherever the English language is
spoken, for his simple lines had about
them that which "makes the whole
world kin. He died a bachelor, with
but one near relative, an elder brother,

HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.

It will be apparent to any one who will examine
q SOLID GOLD WATCH, that aside from the neces-
sary thickness for engraving and polishing, large
proportion Of the PRECIOUS METAL used is
needed only to stiffen and hold the engraved
portions in place. and supply the necessary seidity
and strength. Tie surplus gold ia actually need
less 20 far as UTILITY and beauty are concerned.
In JAMES BOSS, PATENT GOLD WATCH CASES
this WASTE Of precious metal is overcome, and the
SAME soL1D1rY and STRENGTH produced at from
nethird to one-haf the usual cost of sold cases.
This process is of the most simple nature, as fol-
lows: plate of nickel composition metal, especial
~ adapted to the purpose has two plates Of SOLID
GOLD soldered one on each side. The three are
then passed between polished steel rollers, and the
result is strip of heavy plated composition from
which the cases. backs centres, bezels etc., are cut
and shaped by suitable dies and formers. The
gold in these cases is sufficiently thick to ADMIT Of
all kinds Of chasing, engraving and ename]ing the
engraved cases have been carried until worn per-

THE IRELAND OF TO-DAY.
a.. NJ. sullivan at Cooper Institute

No man who knew Ireland twenty,
even ten years ago has any cOmmensur
ate knowledge of the Ireland of to day.
A revolution has been wrought by the
school and the printing press, and, at
length, by the backward wave of Ameri-
can influence and sympathy. American
letters have filled Irish homes with hope
and spirit that is terrible to landlords.
There are scarcely any names that are
so Objurgated in England as those of
Charles Stewart, Parnell and Michael
Dayitt, [Applause.l In my Judgment
Ireland has discovered policy that will
lead her on to victory. l stood on the
streets of Dublin on August 10th. An
exhibition of Irish manufactures had
been projected. This had long been
considered impossible without aid of
capital and men with handles to their
names, and especially the patronage of
the lion and the unicorn. 1t was soon
apparent, however, that the people could
do without the lion and the unicorn,
and that the people wished it to be an
exhibition of Irish self-reliance. There
was building raised, $4,000 were
contributed and 10000 happy people
who were their own police, lined the
streets.

HOW HAYES LIED TO GEN,
BUTLER.

When, by the help Of the Electoral
Commission, Hayes, who was not elected,
had been seated, | called upon him in
December, after he was inauguTated
and said to him, being then a member
of Congress from the Lowell district:
SIN the town of Methuen there has been
Postmaster who has been in office quite
number of years, and his term of
Office is about to expire. He has had
another office for a good many years.
He was an office holder of some sort
during the war. There is man who,
having lost limb in the war, is obliged
to tend an engine for half price, because
he is but little more than half a man so
far as physical strength goes, and
would like to have him appointed.
will send to Methuen and get recon-
mendatiOn from the best men there that
he is good man to be appointed. If
there is any doubt about that l will
bring the poor fellow on to see you, and
you may see him for yOlrself.'
Mr.. Hayes took a memorandum and
promised that no appointments should
be made until after the holidays. |
came home for the holidays, and just 90
l went back | saw the appointment of
the then incumbent of the office. The
old OfficehOlder had been sent to the
Senate.
went Immediately up to the Presi-
dent and said: There is some mistake
here, Mr.. President. l supposed that l
was to have the papers here, and you
would appoint that one armed soldier,
that wounded soldier, and here | have
plenty of papers showing him to be one
of the best men that ever was. He was
in the army, and is perfectly competent
in every way. | told you abOuu him be-
fore went away. You can't have for
gotten" NO" he said, Il have not"
You haven't forgotten that l under
stand also you said that the appoint
ment should stand. The Office Is not
Eacant-that is the old Postmaster had
not deserted it till l came back, and if
you have forgotten it you can do exactly
as all the Presidents have dOne-just
withdraw the name Of the other man,
hear the story of my man, see his papers,
and appoint him" Said he, 81 can't do
that, l think" But" said l, "Mr.
President, in my judgment it is your
duty to do it," l took up the statutes
that lay on his desk and turned them
over and said: "There is| an exact law
that one. armed soldiers, MANNED sol
der, shall be preferred, and here is a
case, and / want to make a test case !
whether this law is to be enforced or |
not" He said to me: There is no
pei atty attached to that law" / said, |
Then you don't mean to appoint this |
man." He said, No" / said, you
will never say that but once. Good
morning, sir"
That was the last time 1 ever called |
on Ru, ,herford B. Hayes, and it is the |
last time ever shall call on him.-From
General Buffers speech at Springfield. |

A HERO OF TODAY.

A week ago, outside of his own little
circle of friends and acquaintances, no.
body knew Joseph A. Seeds, of Jersey
City. He was plain, humble, unpre-
tending man. The "best people" of the
place did not come in contact with him;
he never went into society" he cut no
figure anywhere that was at all snowy.
When on duty he ran an engine on a
railroad. When off duty he spent his
world at very few points; his desire and
content lay in simple things. And yet
1T was reserved for this unknown one of
the common people grandly to demon
strate the truth of MiltOn's line:
Time runs not back to ind the age of gold,
There were dazzling heroes in the
days Of old whose fame will ever re-
main unwashed. But Horatius on the
bridge or Leonidas in the pass are not
more heroic than is Joseph Seeds delib.
erately giving himself up to the flames
IN order that he might save the lives of
Lne passengers upon the train which his
disabled engine was drawing. The an
nails OF the long past contain no more
touching example Of devotion to duty
even unto death. Who shall saw that
the former times are better than these
while pOndering on the story of Seeds
perfect fidelity, courage and unselfsh-
ness!
The six hundred men and women
whom he died serving will doubtless not
feel that they have done their duty or
improved their privilege until they have
allowed their gratitude to take prac-
tieal form. The dead engineer leaves
behind him wife and children to fight
the battle of life as best they may with
out him. 1t would be crime against
right if their circumstances were not
made comfortable. And in addition to
those who were on the wrecked train
there are sure to be many others who
will really esteem it favor to be per-
mitted to befriend the family of such
hero. Every one who reads the closing
chapter Of his life may well feel that

internal communication, and the in
creased facilities of intercourse with
other nations; for the general prevail
ing health of the year; for the prosperity
of all our industries, the liberal return
for the mechanics toll, affOrding a
market for the abundant haryests of the

Wherefore, do recommend that the
day above described be observed through
out the country as day of national

to us, and praying that His blessings
and His meTcies may continue.
And do further recommend that the
day thus appointed be made a special
occasion for deeds of kindness and char

rejoice and be glad in this season of
