Sorrows Come Not singi,.

This statement seems especially true
in the case of Prof. ]. S. McGhee and
his wife, in their recent bereavement.
A few days ago their household
could well have been counted among
the happiest OF the happy, as it re-
sounded with the play Of gleeful Don,
mingled with the sweet cooings ofbaby
Ona. Well might the parents be
proud oftheir beautiful promisingchild-
ren, but alas The destroyer came.
Little Don was attacked with a mali.

yield to no treatment of skill, care or
love, and on November 18th he pass

affliction was LAID heavily on the sorrow
ing parents still as they returned from
the grave of their darling boy, sweet
Ona, with her innocent, infant prattlc.
was left them, as solace in the hour
of anguish. Her winning smiles con-
tlnued to gladden. the hearts of her
parents but one day longer, when the
same disease that had bereft them Of a
son, began to develop IN the little
daughter. Every possible effort was
made to restore her to health, but day
by day she grew weaker, and at
O'Clock a. NJ, November a5th, she
died.
To the doubly bereaved parents,
thus rendered childless, words of hu-
man consolation must have little mean

grave is dispelled, when, by faith, we

floor,' and in about half an hour upset
all that the ex-senator had said. Mr.
Brewster's argument pleased the law
yers inside the bar of the court as much
as Mr.. Conkling's remarks had pleas.
ed the spectators on the outside. An
amusing incident occurred just as At
torney General Brewster was finishing
his argument, the closing speech in the
case. Sitting behind him we're ex-sen-
ator Conkling and Judge Sanderson, of
California, who were opposed to him
in the case. One of tn gentlemen
made some remark, apparently play
upon some word used by The Attorney
General. Mr.. Brewster overheard it,
and referred to it in his speech, at the
same time turning to Mr.. Conkling
with the remark, "it was their parting
shot," Mr.. Conkling Strengthening
himself up in his chair, said; "Shake
not thy CORY locks at me, thou can'st
not say l did it," Attorney General
Brewster answered that ne could not
say who stabbed him in the back"
but that it was one Of the gentlemen.
Speaking of Conkling it is said that his
practice now brings HIM a handsome
income, whetever may be said by his
critics, and he will be able if he desires
to re-en,er politics in few years with
a fortune. While here he held a con-
sultation with Mr.. Merrick, General
Williamson. and other lawyers, in the
interest of Rufus Hatch's Yellowstone
park scheme. Mr.. Hatch's effort to lease
and run" this Montana park, which is
as big as the States of Rhode Island
and Delaware together, has met with
little setback on account OF the crlti-
cism of General Sherman and the
doubt of some Congressman about put
ting SO much public property into pri-
vate hands. But really there seems to
be no way in which the Government
itself can do the things that need to be
done to accommodate the 10000 visi-
tors who will flock to the park in 1853.
Uncle Sam is hardly prepared to turn
hotel-keeper and game preserver, and
perhaps he had better make as sharp
contract as he can with Uncle Rufus,
and then let the latter make few dol
lars out of it. Dom PEDRO.

Colonel Samuel H. Williams, late OF
kirksville, Mo. In the management
of its affairs Mr.. ]. E. Williams fills to
acceptabili;y the position Of Chief
Clerk. We would do an injustice to
others who are entitled to much praise
for the success OF this house, if we fail
ed to mention the amiable wives of
the two gentlemen. Their handiwork
is seen everywhere about the house,
and the burden of responsibility is
assumed cheerfully and willingly. From
its opening hour to this date, the house
has, grown constantly in public favor
with the travelling public. and its pat
ronage will increase still more. now
that our railroad facilities are better
than ever before.
