In UxOris Memoriam.

The nineteenth of July, in the
year of Christ, one thousand, eight
hundred and eighty-five, will be iu-
etfaceaby recorded in my memory
as one Of the saddest days that have
cast their dark shadows across nv
path OF life. On that unhappy day,
after untold suffering for six months
OF the severest bodily pains which
were borne with a fortitude that
excited the admiration of all who
witnessed it, my wife, my loving and
beloved wife, passed through that
fearful ordeal which awaits US all.
How inexpressible the sublimity
OF the scene when conscious of the
near approach of dissolution, but
unappalled thereat with unfalter-
ing voice she planned the order of
her burial, dictated the distribution
Of the memorials Of her love, the
little keepsakes of the heart, for
friends whom she named, and final
ly taking the sacrament, that holy
emblem of the faith, her prepare
ton for the passage of the dark val
ley was complete.
And prayers too, were recited
and hymns such as she most loved
to hear were chanted by soft and
gentle tones that lent touching
charm to the exercise of that sooth-
ing office.
No eye was left undimmed by
the irepressible tear save that of
the expiring form before US, whose
soul, dignitied and majestic, like
some Alpine peak that towers high
above the clouds and storms of
earth, looked calmly down on the
swelling pillows of emotion, and
irradiatcd them with angelic sweet
ness.
With answering faith in the
hopeful promises of the Church
thus passed away from earth, my
best friend, my only companion,
and my loving wife.

The National Administration May As
stat Him-ChIIia Attitude.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-"An expert
enced diplomat has been giving report
er Of The Sundag Herald his views RESP pee
ting " the ADMINISTRATORS foreign policy
and the likelihood Of a rupture with any
OF our neighbors." After referring to
several 'snubs" which he said the United
States has received from Chilli in the last
three years, The Herald informant con-
tinued: "But there is something coming
up very soon that will bring the whole
matter 10 a head. Il is this: The most
important mercantile firm in Peru is the
American house of william X. Grace h
Co. For years they have mOnopoliZed
certain branches Of commerce which have
been exceedingly profitable. The bead OF
the concern Is now Mayor Of New York.
During the war between Chilli and Peru
great damage was done by Chilli to the
property Of foreigners. mostly Americans,
and particularly to that Of the Graces.
This house is especially obnoxious TO
Chill because it stood by the Peruvian
government as long as 1t could render
any service, and without the warlike ma
terial brought into Peru by it that unhap-
py country would have surrendered to
Chill long b tore it did.
GAN this the Chilians knew, and when
they occupied Peru they were harsh to
all Americans, and TO the Graces in par
ticuar. This firm has a large claim for
damages against Chill, which II will soon
present to that government and demand
settlement, which it expects Will be con-
tempuOusly refused. 1t will then invoke
the power Of the United States. The
Mayor il a person of great political con-
sequence. Az the autumn elections q in
New York; are soon to occur, IL is i'm
portant that the administration should
maintain the friendliest relations with
MIN.
The cause Of this arrogance on the
part of Chilli is because OF her close COM
mercial relations with England. Four
fitths OF the entire business OF that coun-
try is with English merchants. The new
American Minister to Chill is Mr.. Will
liam r. Roberts, Of New York. By birth
he is an Irishman, and was the Fenian
head centre many years ago. He hates
England with the intensity that only an
Irishman can feel when be believes his
birth land is oppressed and downtrodden.
Now you will see the situation. / think
it entirely probable that Chilli will scOrn-
fully reject the demand for indemnifica-
tion which the New York firm will pre-
sent soon through our Minister. He will
then refer the matter to his government
at home, asking at the same time for in
struetiOns. New York merchants VIII
ask the administration whether they are
TO be protected or not, and then will
come the final act. From what | know Of
the matter-unofficially mind YOU
should say that the case is one in which
our government Will be obliged to inter-
fere il it is necessary 10 compel payment.
How far Chilli will maintain its preten-
tions l cannot say"
