MATURE IN YEARS,
COVERED WITH GLORY, AND
RICH IN THE AFFECTIONS OF THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE.
When men of common character
are swept from the theater OF life,
they die without the tribute OF pub
lie notice or concern, as they had
lived, without a claim on public es-
TEEN. When personages OF exalted
worth are summoned from the
scenes OF sublunary existence, their
death calls forth burst of general
regret, and invigoratcs the fame OF
public gratitude. In obedience TO
the wishes and TO the voice Of their
country, the orator, the poet, and
the historian combine TO do justice
TO the virtues OF their character,
while the labors OF the painter, the
sculptor, and the statuary, in per-
petuating their likeness, DO homage
to their memory.
But when in compliance with Heay-
ems high mandate the HERO OF
THE AGE lies numbered with the
dead: when the reverend sage, the
august statesman, tie FATHER OF
I HIS COUNTRY has resigned his
breath; when the idol OF an emp re,
the envy and admiration of distant
nations, and the BRIGHTEST Or
NAMENT OF HUMAN NATURE;
when
WASHINGTON
Is no more, let sense OF the public
loss be testified by the badges OF
general mourning; but let not the
voice of eulogy be heard, lest the
weakness OF talents and the deficien-
cy or language do injustice TO the
luster aud fame of the deceased!

HERO riscl
Resplendent forms attend him thro' the
skies

The movement in this city for the or
ganization of a society and the building OF
an'apparatus to cremate the bodies of the
dead is only one of several similar enter
prises in the larger cities. In Cincinnati
crematory of most elegant design is about
being erected. Before the end of the cen
fury this custom will have become, if moi
common, at least not exceptional. There
will be probably enough found in Detroit
who desire incineration for themselves and
their families to support modest estab-

Cured to the Emperor Wilhelm as he
was driving ont at Ems. A man sud-
denly threw down a Watering before
the feet of the horses drawing the
Emperor's carriage. The perpetrator
was at once arrested and turned out to
be a native of Frankfort-on- the Oder, a
cooper by trade, and we'll known there
as harmless lunatic. He told the
police he had come to Ems to tell the
Emperor about the means he had dis
covered for preventing foundations, and
he thought he could best obtain an
audience by breaking the ever in his
Majesty's presence. The poor fellow
was at once placed in safe-keeping in an
asylum.

Tax growing demand for American
corn abroad is indicated by the fact
that our exports of this grain were
larger the past year than ever before.
The area under cultivation is estimated
at 1000, 900 acres more than produced
the large crop of 1884. 1t is almost
too early yet to speak with certainty,
as untimely frosts may spoil a crop
which was got in late in the spring,
and which is yet backward. Present
conditions in nearly all parts of the
country are favorable. A few more
weeks OF good weather, and we shall
have crop of corn more valuable than
the largest wheat crop. and of which
we shall almost certainly have more to
export than of wheat the coming year.
