CHARLES O'CONOR,
Brief Biography of the Deceased Great
New York LAWYER.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.

Especial Telegram to the Globe
New YORK, May 13.-Mr. OConor was ma
tive of New York city. He was born in the year
1904, the son of an Irshman of culture Il men,
Der of the Catholic church, in which faith his dis
tinguished son continued. The future eminent
lawyer did not receive a university education
The associations of his life at home while he was
a pupil in a common school We're, however,
favorable to the development of his mental pow
ers. tie was admitted to the bar when about
twenty years of age rapidly in his profes-
sion and was recognized a lawyer of
unusual ability and promise before
he was thirty. When under fifty years old he had
achieved a national reputation. OF the impor-
tant cases in which he took part, two are promi-
nent viz, the Mason will case, in which he was
considered to have made his greatest argument,
and the Forrest divorce suit in which he appeared
for Mrs. Forrest. The statement has been made
that the great actor one occasion threatened
personal violence toward the eloquent advocate
who represented his wifes interests in this law
suit but was oveN-awed by his cool courage and
dignity.
Mr.. OConor has been for sometime residing at
Nantucket, Mass, in the enj njoymeut of an ample
income earned by his brilliant at the bar.
He is said to have been worth about 81, ,OO0, 900.
NOT Il surprisingly large amount Wnen MS long
practice, during the best period of which he
made from $50, 900 to $4,000 year, and the ap-
probation of the real estate in which ha invested
taken into account. After being a bachelor
for many year he married of his clients a
widow belonging to the Livingston family, with
whom he lived but short time. Their tastes
were as opposite as their religious preferences
(she was Protestant), and they separated
When, after many years, Mr.. O'Conor received
the news of his wife's death, he is said TO have
wept bitterly. He leaves no children.
Mr.. OfConor was always fayorite among his
brother attorneys. His nature was gentle and
sympathetic, and his quick sensibilities often be-
lied the cold exterior which he assumed He
was Democrat in politics. During the pres
idency of Pierce he acted as district attorney for
few months. He was member of the New
York constitutional convention of 1864. His
nomination for the presidency in 1872 resulted
in a few votes being cast for him in several
states. These, perhaps, may be regarded rather
as complimentary to the man than as an en-
dorsement of the extreme views entertained by
that section of the Democratic party which nom
mated him. Some years ago he was reported
dead, but the day the news was published he
was able to sit up in bed and read his own
obituary. His recent illness was lingering,
though painless, and his friends had hoped
until within day or two that he would again
recover.
New YORK, May 13.-The remains of Charles
O'Conor arrived tonight, and was taken to the
cathedral and placed in the vault, to remain un-
til the funeral

little interruption rp to the close of business the
market becoming more completely demoralized

the excitement was intense. Stocks were sold
with perfect recklessness for what they would
bring, and there was no end to the amount for
sale.

Columbus (Ga.) Sun.

Ono of the proverbs of the people,
which is as old as the hills, and seems
destinedt to survive for generations to
come, says that "promises, like pie
crust, are made to be broken.' Such
FreaIly seems to be the case rs the
world now wags. If shell is paved
with good Intentions" the earth and
sky might be said to be scrolled all
over with broken promises. Men and
women generally are promising set,
and all sorts of promises are extorted
with little effort. Promises commence
with the cradle and end with the
grave. In the nursery children first
begin to learn faithlessncss of hu-
manity, by the promises which are
made and violated by fond parents.
The promised reward for meritorions
conduct fails to come and the child
grows Indifferent as to future conduct.
The promised chastisement is not ad-
ministered, and the youngster grows
bolder in disregard Of parental au-
thority, and reaches out after new
license in the paths Of disobedience
and folly. The youth is said TO be,,a
promising young man" who recklessly
runs in debt, and constantly meets
his creditors with fimsy excuses and
promises, which he does not expect to
fulfill. If the law of the land holds
contracts as sacred, the social law,
which seeks the highest good of the
community, should also endeavor to
enforce the sacredRess of promises.
Good faith between man and man can
only be secured by solemnly and faith
fully adhering to the sanctity of prom
ises.
1t is true that some promises are
better broken than kept, but against
such silly and meaningless promises,
or wicked and unprincipled pledges,
men and women should beware. The
greatest interest of our political and
social fabric call for thorough and
sweeping reform in this direction, but
while mankind is SO full of folly and
foible, so prone to err, it looks as if it
might be hoping against hope to ex-
peot that a universal era of good faith
will come in our day. But we are.
progressive creatures, and improve
ments in manners and customs, if they
come late, are better than those which
come not at ALL People had better make
no promises than to break those which
should be kept. The politician may fur
ther his schemes by pledges known to
be false, and men in general may secure
temporary gain by deceit and fraud,
but in the long run truth and candor
will pay best. Many an efficient busi-
ness man has been ruined by the in
fidelity of those to whom he entrusted
his interests. Many a heart has been
broken and many life prospect dark
eued through treachery and faIsehood.
1t is not necessary to success and
happiness that the world should pro-
duCe rich crop of idle babblcrs, but
it is necessary, whether man be
creature of many or few words, that
he be faithful and just in the matter
of his promises. Good men often
suffer iu character and interests
through the faithlesSn0ss of So-called
friends. Words are never more titly
and wisely spoken than when uttered
in the interests of CandoT and truth.
