PARIS, JAN 2-Rochefort in the Intraas-
sigeant publishes articles headed: END of
Savior" reminding those whom Gam
beta threatened at Belleville that they can
now sleep in peace. Further details of
his death state that he was impatient to
see the end of the year which he consider
ed had been unlucky for him. The body
will be embalmed and removed to Paris to-
day. Gambetta's fortune is estimated
under rs. 900 francs.
The room is poorly furnished The
body lies on a small iror bedstead, COM
pletGly covered by sheets, except the head,
which rests on two pillows. The face Is
pale, the hair greyer than usual, and the
beard entirely grey. Gambetta appears
fifteen years older than he really was. His
friends seemed utterly beside themselves,
some aged men weeping. There were q
few flowers on the foot of the bed. Other
wise there were numD0T OF uOWeFS uSuAl
in France on such occasions. A
pointer was seated at the foot
of the bed sketching the scene.
Other artists for illustrated papers were
similarly occupied in their rooms. The
moneyGambetta leaves is principallyaccept-
ed from his newspaper. A correspondent
who made the tour of Paris streets ester
day says there was real CONSERVATION in
the bourgeois and trading quarters. In
the artisan dist. There was some indifference
among grovps of workmen and person was
exclaimed against for saying the Re
public had suffered great loss.
There's some idea of postponing Gam
betta's funeral until the 10th inst, so that
the Senate and Chamber of Deputies may
attend in body. 1t is estimated that
5000 persons visited the house at Vile d
Array yesterday People were admitted
by groups of five or ten into the hall whence
they assembled TO the small bed room where
the bodyis lying. The visitors include
ministers, senators and other functionaries.

the German hotel. The connection was
continued after their return, Leonie going
every Saturday afternoon to his villa,
where she was accepted as the mistress of
the servants, and returning Monday morn
ing in his carriage. Their quarrels also
continued. Within a week three dis
charged domestics revealed the mysteries
OF the ill-starred establishment. and
finally the dissensions eliminated
in the scene of the unhappy
pistol shot. Gambetta lost his temper,
giving vent to abuse and coarse language
such as he was wont to employ in a me-
ment of passion. She was exasperated,
seized a revolver and fired. He raised his
hand to turn aside the weapon and receiv-
ed his death wound, everything else is con-
lecture. None but they know the truth
and Gambetta died yet made no sign. I
can vouch for the authenticity of this
version of the unhappy story and / assume
entire responsibility for it, no matter how
different it be from the others which may
obtain publicity.

Common Sense.

Very few people in this world possess
what is known as practical common
sense, yet those who do claim moiety
of thatnecessary requirement say that IT
is foolish to assert that there is no known
cure for Rheumatism, when the great
medicine, Salicylica, is guaranteed to
give immediate and permanent relief. A
test of its efficacy is the fact that it has
been established for five years, and is an
assured success.
