 IN MEMoRIAM.-With sadness we are called on to record the sudden death of Miss Han nah A. Shahan, only daughter of our esteem ed former resident, MT. M. F. Shahan. The deceased during her several years residence in this place endeared herself to all who knew her. Peculiarly situated from her ten der years, owing to the protracted illness of her mother, Hannah never gave exterior ev- idence of other sentiment than one of con- tentment and happiness. The choir of St. Edwards church lost an efficient and ready member some months since in her departure with her family for Millbury, Mass Here she experienced the realization of long coy eted desire to pefect herself in her studies already well advanced under the direction of the Sisters. As soon as practicable she found herself established at Mount St. Joseph's con- vent, Hartford, conducted by the Sisters of Mercy. An ardent student, she was already giving bright promise of an suspicious future, when death put an end to such happy pros poets. Slightly indisposed on Thursday, the 1st inst, her kind attendants anticipated nothing serious till the chill of death began to settle on her late that same night, and the early sun of Friday morn looked in on her lifeless corpse. The nature of her sickness is not we'll known, the doctors with much inde- cisien holding it was incipient scarlet fever. Deceased was IS years months old Besides her father and invalid mother, she leaves an only brother, Rev. Dr. Shahan, chancellor of Hartford diocese, to mourn her loss. The re- mains were taken to Baltic for interment at the conclusion of the funeral service, con- ducted by her uncle, Rev. P. P. Shahan, at St. Patrick's church Norwich

MoRRIsoN's scaling down" tariff bill has met it's death, the enacting clause hay ing been stricken out on, Tuesday by a vote of 15O to 155. There were Az dem- ocrats who voted with 117 republicans in favor of the motion. All of the New Eng land democrats except Eaton voted against it. This ends the matter for this session. The bill was doomed from the start, as it would have been killed by the senate if the house had passed it. It was a step to- ward free trade, its supporters being near ly all unqualifedly in favor of tariff only for revenue purposes. It is clear that the present congress is not controlled by the free traders, and the next one will be still farther from it.

THE appearance of the sun, moon and atmosphere on Friday afternoon and even- ing was almost phenomenal. The cause Was forest fires in New York and New Y lgland. The village of Gilman's Depot N l., on the Port Jervis aud Monticello railroad, was burned, the fires from the burning forests encircling it with such rap idity the inhabitants could only flee for their lives. The village was mainly tan nery and connecting buildings and resi- dences, and the loss is over $100, ,0OO to the owners of the tannery.
 THE feverish condition of Wall street af- fairs is not helped by the failure of the Marine Bank of New York and of the bro- kerage firm of Grant X Ward. Overdrafts by the latter firm broke down the bank Gen. Grant was a member of the firm, though not manager, having put $10Q 900 into it's capital, and was further liable to the extent in all of $25O, ,OOO, which, it is thought, takes all he has. There is muck sympathy for the ex-president, who is in no way responsible for the disaster, Mir. Ward being the active man of the firm.
