In Their Last Resting Place.

New YORK, Feb. 25.-At ten o'clock
Saturday morning the remains of the De
Long party arrived by the tug Catalpha.
They were brought forth and placed in
hearses in the following order: Lieutenant
Commander De Long, Seamen Kaack,
Gartz, Dressler and All Sam. The line of
march was then taken up to the Church Of
the Holy Trinity. When the procession ar
rived the church was filled Mrs De
Long, her little son, and her father
and mother, who had come over from
Brooklyn with the remains, occupied
seats facing the altar. just back sat her
brothers and their wives and the Misses
Bradford daughters Of the Arctic artist.
All were dressed in deepest mourning and
sat throughout the services with their heads
bowed upon their clasped hands. To the
left of the sad groupe sat Messrs Melville,
Nindermann and Neros in full uniform.
Bishop Potter delivered an address, closing
with a prayer, after which the choir sang
the anthem, 81 Heard Voice from Heay-
en-" Then the vast audience slowly filed
out and the funeral rites over the bravo
dead were ended. The remains were then
conveyed to Woodlawn Cemetery, where
they we're inferred.

A PERFECT DAY,

We went together up the side t..-I,1 80
OF some far hill, on that far day;
Where, in the grass, clear streamiets glide.
Where Pickering shadows softly play
T.- All me!
That this should be but one long memory!
A brook was singing in the sun,
As If it strove our lips to teach
Some secret Of its waters run,
Some words that scarce find sound in speech;
And so
We drank loves cup, and listened to its flow
My sweet, we fingered near the stream
Till melting gold turned all to gray; -.
And now it only seems a dream
The memory Of that perfect day.
-- r- Thus pass
Loves hours like breath-stains breathed up
on glass.
ALI the Year Round.

Cited with Long Life.

1t appears from the gathered statistics
of the world that women have a greater
tenacity of life than men. Nature wor-
ships the female in all its varieties.
Among insects the male perishes at a
relatively early period. In plants the
seminate blossoms die earliest, and are
produced in the weaker limbs. Female
quadIupeds have more endurance than
females. In the human race, despite
the intellectual and physical strength OF
the man, the woman endures longest
and win bare pain to which the strong
man succumbe. Zymotic diseases are
more fatal to males, and more male chill
dren die than females. Deverge asserts
that the proportion dying suddenly is
about 100 women TO $50 men L,060 men
in the United States. in 1870, committed
suicide TO 285 women. Intemperance
apoplexy, gout, hydrocephalus, affections
Of the heart or liver, scrofula or paraly.
sis, are far more fatal to males than fe-
males. Pulmonary consumption on the
other hand, is more deadly to the latter.
Females in cities are more prone to con-
sumption than In the country. All old
countries not disturbed by emigration
have a majority of females in the popu.

Nearly all insurance companies doing
business in the West write promiscuously
on hazardous risks suoh as hotels, livery
stables, mills, factories, stores, etc. Oh
the Iowa companies, the old Burlington
stands distinguished as the only one which
confines its business exclusively to detached
sci ool- houses. 1t rejects all special hsz
ards and has not one mercantile risk upon
its books-hence the absolute character OF
the indemnify it furnishes. The Burlington
policies cover against fire and lightning and
against tornadoes, cyclones and wind
storms.
