LONDON, August 16.-The TIM.
dispatch from Foo Chou Gays: France
rejected the mediation of any power.
China refuses to pay the indemnity
demanded by France and declared
war. Admiral Courbet demanded
1000 men from Tonkin. General
MilOt sent 900 men with two batteries
of artillery on Monday with sealed
orders. Six thousand Chinese troops
landed at Hoi Haw. Heavy masses
of troops are stationed on the
Kivangs frontier. French and Chi
nese wal ships have steam up and
decks cleared for action. The Chi
nese dispatched war orders to the
.vicerOYs of provinces. Officials pre-
tend they are prepared for war, but
as a matter of fact the condition of
troops, ports, etc., are no better than
last April.

More About the M0rey Letter.

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-Hadley ad-
! mits that he wrote the name of Henry
l.. Morey in the register of the Kirt-
land house, at Lynn, and substituted
it for the name of Geo. E. G ..Morey in
the affidavit of Mrs. Clara Morey, de-
claring that he was her son. These
forgeries were made to sustain the
original forgery. There was no such
man as H. L.. Morey to whom the
forged letter was supposed to be
written, nOr was there ever any such
person as John w. Goodali. who
claimed to be the executor to II. L..
MOrey, and who transmitted the
forged letter to Truth. Hadley wrote
the GOOdall letters also.
Davenport also says that a week or
ten days before the publication in
Truth of the Morey letter, Chas. A.
Dana, of the New York Sun was told
that such a letter was in existence,
and upon his expressing a doubt
thereof his informant assured him
that such was the case, and that he
believed that he could obtain it. and
show it to him, Dana.) TO this Mr..
Dana replied that he did not care to
e it for the reason that he believed
it any such letter was in existence it
was a forgery and he wished to have
nothing to do with it.
Lindsey, like Mo-ey, was a icti-
tiOus person, and the man O'Brien,
who persOnated him or the Phillips
examination, vas arrested for for
gerry, confessed, and is now serving a
term in Sing Sing prison for that
offense. The language of the Morey
letter is shown to have been culled
from the speeches of Cutter, of New
Jersey, Williams, Wisconsin, Phillips,
Kansas, Lutrell, California, and 9TH
ers on the Chinese bill, and from the
testimony of Henry George and others
before the house committee on Chi
nese immigration, and in no sensea re
extracts from Garfield's writings.

Fine Beef Cattle. - Mr., Aug

Fine Reef Cattle. - Mr.. August
Eickhorn, of this place, bought Tues
day six of the finest beeves ever brougt
to the Frostburg market. The weights
were lao, 1,470, 1000, 1,5l7, 1,525
and 1865; total, 9,147 lbs. These
cattle were reared and fattened on
Hon. Lloyd Lowndes' Potomac river
farm, and are fine evidences Of what
can be accomplished by our farmers.
According to Mr.. Els calculation they
will net c, 48S lbs. AT any rate those
who patronize him while this supply
lasts may be assured of getting rich,
juicy and tender beef, even better than
the excellent quality he is in the habit
of furnishing his customers. The APP
pearance of these cattle on the streets
attracted general attention and adj
miration.

IN MEMORIAM.
MIR. A. j. BOgck.

DIED-April 16, 1884, in Mt. Savage, Md,
Mr.. A. J. BoGcK, aged 6s years.
Mr. Bogck leaves widow and three daugh-
tiers.
He was n man of rare education and culture,
and of an excellent character in every respect.
He was born in Williamson, Provinz Saxony,
Prussia; studied i'll Eisleben and afterwards
philology and also heard theology in the cole
brated University in Halle. Having finished
his studies with honor and distinction he was
called to a professorship in the Gymnasium in
Halberstadt, which position he filed sew
eral years with honor and satisfaction. He
married III 1si9 Miss Idalia Grimm, of the IA
nous and world-renowned family-Grimm.
Domestic affairs induced him soon afterwards
in ls49 to emigrate with his young wife to the
United States. He went to Wisconsin and
served a congregation as pastor for three years
in Thinsvllle, near Milwaukee. But the
honest and highly cultured man could not
content himself with the queer and loose &C.
clesiastcal affairs of this country. In 1852 he
came to Mt. Savage and was employed as
weighmaster, but did any work demanded for
the honest support of himself and family.
He laborcd hard until death called him from
labor to refreshment-to rest. Mr.. Bogck
was over thirty years with the well-known
Superintendent, James Il. Thomas, and full
filled his duties faithfully All right-minded
and good-thinking men who knew Mr.. Bogck
bear testimony to his noble character and I'M
questionable honesty. He was buried by the
Odd Fellows on Thursday, April II. The
ceremonies were held in the German Luther
an church, Frostburg, the pastor, Rev. NJ.
IIcrberg, making appropriate remarks, bear
ing tribute to the life of the deceased, after
which the remains were inferred in the Luz
theran cemetery.
May he rest in peace
Honor to his memory.
In the name of the widow and daughters,
Mrs. and Misses Bogck, the undersigned ex-
presses to the Odd Fellows, the choir and all
friends who proved their sympathy during
the sickness and obsequies of the beloved hus-
band and father, the heartfelt thanks of the
bereaved NJ. HERBERG.
