The legislature has begun the Senatorial
struggle The result of the balloting on
Tuesday, was 80 votes for Ferry, Stout so,
scattering 22. Wednesdays ballot was the
same, with the exception of two or three
changes in the scattering vote. 1t has be-
come very evident that the anti-Ferry Re-
publicans are in earnest, and do not mean to
yield. If this is so, Mr.. Ferry cannot be
elected by Republican votes, and an election
by aid of the opposition, either by votes
directly, or by absenteeism indirectly, would
be disastrous to the best interests of the Re
publican party. Why not drop him entirely
and all unite upon some other ADLER man, we
have plenty of them, harmonic the party,
please the people, and insure future Re
publican success in Michigan?

Another of natures noblemen has been sud-

Arceneaux could fail to respect him for his true
manhood, and none could know him we'll with
out feeling more than an ordinary regard for
him. His was an humble sphere in life, but he
performed its every duty. and who can do more?
His was the strength of the lion. yet was he as
gentle as a woman; though never lacking the
courage of his convictions, none could be more
charitable and liberal towards the opinions and
prejudices of another. We have long enjoyed
the privilege of counting him among our warm
est friends. and to see him laid away in the
the tomb was like gazing for the last time upon
the form of cherished brother.
Tho cause of Mr.. Arceneaux's death was per
nicious malarial fever. He had been sick only
a few days and none of his friends were pre-
pared for the rude shock of his untimely
demise. The funeral took place last evening,
and was attended by a large concourse of peo-
pie, including members of the Donaldsonyille

have been desired than that formed by the
five graduates, when with wreath of gold
upon the fair young brow and medal of gold
suspended around the snow white throat,
they bowed their thanks to loving teachers,
happy parents and admiring friends.
After the exhibition the pupils and their
teachers repaired to the shady and lovely
grounds of the st. Vincent Institution,
where they whiled away the afternoon in
the pleasures of basket picnic which was
most thoroughly enjoyed by all who parti-
cipated.

We tender our sympathies to the relatives.

FAREWELL TO ST. vINCENT'S.
Composed by the Gradnates-Read by Miss n. Lavigne
The sun, as he fingers at even,
Ere fading in twilight away,
Lights up with fresh splendor all Heaven,
And adds new charm to the day.
Fen thus doubly fair art thou growing,
Dear home, as l bid thee adicu;
The moment of parting bestowing
A brighter, lovelisr hue!
Natures fairest blossoms lend beauty and
fragrance to enhance the charms OF this, our
festive scene. Muslc's sweetest strains blend
with the melody of song, to usher in this glad
some morn; the myriad songsters of the groves,
with harmony celestial repeat the joyous lay,
and yet. amid this chorus grand, there signs for
us note of sadness deep; for ERE the rays of
the setting sun shall gid the western horizon;
ERE eve lights the beautiful yesper star, five
baraues which until this hour loated side by
side over the mystic waters of life, must leave
this harbor of peace. to be launched upon the
oceans dark and stormy wave. For US flowers,
music and birds have lost their bewitching in
fnsnce; they seem to whisper, but the bitter
word " FareWel1!'' This, must our lips repeat
while the heart is slnote with anguish keen.
For soon, alas! must sacred ties De broken; ties,
which by a thousand happy, holy associations,
bound US to our girihood's home; too swiftly.
