The New York World, in lis issue of Fri
day, publishes 8 very full and interesting re-
port of the arrival at that port of the re-
NJ aims of the author of Home, Sweet
Home" and says that he came of family
of conspicuous literary ability and of gentle
breeding. Robert Treat Payne, of Boston,
one OF the signers of the Declaration of In
dependence, and Robert Treat Payne, jr.,
were OF the same family. Miss Dolly Payne,
also, who became the wife of President
Madison, was his kinswoman. William
Payne, the father of the drsmatist, when a
youth studied medicine under the tutorship
Of Gen. Warren, of Bunker Hill fame. His
second wife and the mother of John Howard
was Miss Sarah Isaacs, Jewess, of East
Hampton, L. l., and her fathers tombstone
at East Hampton bears the inscription:
An Israslite indeed in whom there was no guile
John Howard Payne, the sixth of nine
children, was bern in New York, June 8,
1871; his eldest sister, the wife of DIR. John
Cheever Osborne, died in Brooklyn in 1865,
and his youngest brother, Thatcher Taylor
Payne, \ lawyer who is yet we'll remem-
bered, died in Brooklyn, December q, 1868.
John Howard Payne was a medium-sized
man, always careful and neat in his dress a.
gentle as q woman, modest in his bearing, oil
delicate sentiments and mild Of speech. He
had even q WON ans gentleness of manner
and kindness of heart, and he was a man OF
M any warm friendships, and counted among
his warmest admirers Charles Lamb, Ton
Moore, Irving, OConnell, Phillips, Tina
John Philip Kemble, Kean, WashiSs tor
Allstop, Hayden, Charles r Leslie (whc
painted full.length portraits of Payne as
douglas" and as "Hsmlet"), Robert Over
and Walter Scott, be sides nesrly all the states
men and literary men in America who were
his contemporaries. The truth is, he enjoyed
life keenly, the more keenly because, unlike
most literary persons, he did not carry abou
with him a worry about fame; yet on a
lucky day he CHANGED upon as clear title
to remembrance as any of mis- contemporaries

SOFT woRDs, HAED ARGUMENTS

We saw an announcement q day or two
ago that one oil the great lecturers Of the
country Was about 10 lecture upon the prob
lem: aIs the World Growing Better or
Worsep Our spiuion is that it is growing
better, and one reason Why we entertsin that
opinion is the improved tone of the newspa-
pers IN the country toward each other, for
the press ia Thermometer that shows the
range of public sentiment. Every reader OF
forty knows what even the principal jour
nails in New York used 10 be in this respect.
No mud was too foul far them to throw, no
vulgariiy too gross for them to descend to-
Nous auons change tout celia. A proper feeling
of self-respect now prevents The use Of insult
where there is a failure of sound reasons.
The press has generally learned the value of
that excellent axiom, use SIT words and
hard arguments" This improved tone of
the press is not confined TO large
cities, the country press is largely
affected by the same happy influence.

lang uage between the 'molders of public
opinion is certainly entertaining and will be
read with interest by parties who wish to
read and understand both sides of every
question: but low, course, vulgar language
is no argument, and only tends TO lower the

CLEVER COUNTERFEITs.
A New silver Dollar that is PuzzIfns
The Experts.

LOUISVILLE, March 27.-A very perfect
counterfeit silver dollar is annoying the BUSH
ness men of this city. Nobody knows whence
it has come. 1t is the best counterfeit that
has yet appeared, and it requires an expert
to detect it. The weight, size and color are
the same as those of the genuine, and when
dropped on hard wood it has the same ring.
There is only one way to detect the differ
ence. The ear OF the Goddess of Liberty is
larger on the counterfeit than on the genu-
inc. By rubbing ones hand over the face Of
the woman the big ear can be readily felt.
This new counterfeit has come across the
continent. They first made their appearance
in San Francisco. They weighed one of
them at the mint, and found that two-thirds
Of it was silver and the rest alloy. Thou
sands of them have been turned on New
York, and numbers have found their way
into Chicago. Where they all came from is
a mystery. 1t is evident that they are the
work Of some exceedingly clever men, who
are experts in their nefarious trade. The
secret service detectives have been trying TO
find the gang for months, but they have 30
far eluded detection.

The Old MAN blooming out Again.

Uncle Samuel j. Iilden is blooming again.
This is the latest account of him:
"Gentlemen who have visited Greystone
during TIE last month are surprised and de-
lighted at the marked and rapid improve
ment in Mr.. Tilden's bodily condition and
general health. They say his voice is fully
restored, and is now clear and firm; his eye
is brilliant and penetrating, his nerves are
steady, his carriage erect, and his tread
almost martial in its evenness and solidity.
His mental vigor, which always remained
unimpnired even in his worst bodily estate,
now acts hsrmc liolsly with restored phyei-
cal strength and recuperated erergy and ner-
vous power. In word, he appears to be, and
thinks he is, about entering upon the In-
dian summer OF life which followed The se-
we're prostration of his friend Charles O'Con-
or, and which has been vouchsafed to so
many distinguished men of the present and
past generations. In fact, he attributes his
restoration to health in great part to his fol-
lowing the example of O'Conor, who, after
escaping from the jaws OF death, dismissed
his doctors, threw physic to the dogs and.
retiring from the active duties and cares
of the world, lived a regular, methodical
life, and allowed nature to recuperate."
This is cheerful. 1t is even charming.

The ptsmoud miue Di.a,ter.

BRAIDwooD, ILL, March 27.-EIcava-

the work of The pumps, showing that great
body remains in the mines. Carloads of
debris are hoisted to the surface and dumped,
and few men and women stand listlessly
about, viewing the desolate scene. The fu-
neral train still stands near The shaft, wait
ing for it's next load of victims. A body
was identified yesterday as that OF August
Poland, but it turns out TO be that of John
French. The coroner has returned to Joliet
to await further developments.

PrTTssJRG, March 27.-The failure of c.
P.Msrkles' Som, paper m manufacturers, is the
principal topic in co numerical circles TO day.
As stated last night, the liabilities are about
$4,000 and assets close 10 81 100000. Mr..
Krider, chief bookkeeper, followed Capt.
Markle TO Chicsgo o. request of the latter's

Guilty, in persusding bin TO make an assign-
ment. Markle offered no explanation for
his conduct beyond stating that he was tired
and wanted rect. He had been drinking,
aud was still under the influence of liquor.
He made no etier to return the money,
although acquainted with the fact that his
action had ruined the firm. As the money
was his own, it cannot be taken from him in
any legal way, aud for that reason no pro-
ceedings will be instituted sgainst him. As
Besr as can be learned, he took with him
SEQ 600 of the firms money.

THE WHISKY POOL.
A DecIine OF Two Cents ordered at Gin.
nsfi-The Reasons Therefor.

CINCINNATI, March 27.-Whisky declined
two cents to-day BY order of the managers CT
the whisky pools. This action was accom-
panied by rumor of the dissolution of the
pool, but President Miller says there ia no
cause for trouble; that the pool is as strong
now as ever; that the disastrous failures
which have occurred of late, together with
the decentralization in Kentucky, makes the
existence Of the pool more important than
ever. 1t is the only safety OF the business,
SO long as cattle are in the stables. He at
tributes the decline 10 the fall in corn, and
says he thought 81 IA too high for some
time. The pool only extends TO the price of
high wines, leaving spirits and other goods
subject TO ssch fluctuations as manufacturers
choose to make.
