Yesterday l went to Old Orchard
with some friends, and learned some-
thing of the storm there. Breakers
of huge size seemed to rise much far
Their than usual and the foam was
driven high on the beach. Old sail
ors say they have seen nothing like it
for years. We saw friend, who is
stopping at the Atlantic House, and
he told us young man came near
being drowned there. / afterwards
learned that his name was Bangs from
Ottawa Canada. He waded out, then
swan toward the breakers. Carried
by the retreating waves he was far
ther out than he knew. A large wave
broke over him and he went over be-
fore it and was driven toward the
shore, and was not able to again get
upon his feet, and had he been left a
moment more his fate would have
been sealed. When taken ashore he
was pulseless and apparently lifeless,
but in about an hour was restored so
that he breathed regularly. One lit
tie girl thought it would be sport to
take off her shoes and stockings and
wade III the shallow water, and her
mother allowed her to do so, keeping
close watch over her. But one
wave came up much farther than any
of the preceding ones, and when it
reached the little girl was large
enough to kick her feet out from I'M
der her and lay her fiat on her side
in the water, drenching her thorough
ly. Her mother caught her at once,
but she can say what few little girls
can, that she has been in bathing in

George w. Childs of the Philadel-
phia Ledger, Gen. Grants most init
mate friend, has recently made the
statement that the movement for
a third term was from the very
beginning against the judgment of
the General, and that those who
pushed the movement were well
aware of the fact. Mr.. Childs states
that shortly after the return of Gen.
Grant from his foreign trip, the two
met, and the matter was discussed in
all it's aspects between them, and as
a result of the conference, it was de-
cided that Gen. Grant should write a
letter to Mr.. Childs, announcing that
he was not candidate for the third
nomination, and that he could not
accept the nomination if it was tend
cred Before this letter was put into
writing, the movement for third
term had been so thoroughly organ
lied. and its leaders were so wholly
committed to it, that their earnest
solicitations dissuaded the General
The letter was never written but
those who supported the movement
never had from Gen. Grant any init
nation that he would accept thu
nomination ifathe convention tender
ed it, and were apprehensive to thu
last that declination would follow
a nomination. Es

Sir Moses Montefore, who died in
London on Tuesday, at the age of
more than one hundred years, con-
tributed, among the last acts of his
life, $500 toward the Garfield Memo
rial fund. Sir Moses was jew.
He was born in Leghorn in October,
1874, and educated in England,
whittier his father had emigrated.
After serving an apprenticeship to
a provision dealer he became a
member of the London stock ex-
change at time when only twelve
jewish brokers were allowed to carry
on business in London. Becoming a
partner in the banking house of the
Rothschilds, Sir Moses was able, at
the age of As, to retire from business
a millionaire. The remaining years
of his life he devoted to works of
philanthropy. In whatever part OF
the world Jew has been in trouble,
in Palestine, in Russia, in Africa, or
in farther places still, the money of
Sir Moses Montefore has contributed
to his relief. Nor have his benefac-
tions been extended to the children
of the promise alone.

LETTER FROM PEAKE'S
ISLAND.
PenEe's Island. \

Peake's Island, Me-, dug. 6, 49,
Mr.. Editor,-You were quite right
when you said in your letter of Aug.
9Th, that eff the east wind RACES as
hard on the Island as it does here the
sea must be grand" Old residents
say we might stay all summer and
not see another such sight. Hundreds
of men and women with their rubber
coats and gossamers went over to the
back side of the Island and stood in
the rain, which came down in ssOld
Virginia STYLE" and watched the
waves for hours. There was some
thing which seemed to fascinate and
bind us to the spot as we stood near
the shore and saw the great waves,
one behind the other, rise and fall
like big hills, from the level of the
sea, and dash toward US as though
they meant to submerge the Island,
and then roll over, break and crash
with almost deafening roar against
the huge rocks that line the shore,
sending spray thirty feet or more into
the air. For % rods from the shore
the sea was complete foam and
| looked as white and soft as carded
| wool. We saw, several times, seal
and what was probably a sea-hog, Or
porpoise, that had been driven near
the land, and for time, ''with sus-
pended animation and fond expect
ancy," we watched for them, hoping
they would be stunned on the rocks
| and washed ashore where we could
capture them. But they were equal
to the emergency and got out to sea
again, and this is all the "fish story
we have to tell. The residents here
say that the rain probably never fell
with greater force or violence, for a
longer period than last Tuesday. In
Portland, on Commercial street, which
is near the wharyes, many cellars
were flooded, and number of streets
were badly washed. One cellar
over which a new building is to bt

The conviction and sentence of

The conviction and sentence OF
Louis Riel, the leader of the North
west rebellion, is all the absorbing
topic of the day in Canada. The
jury recommended him to the mercy
of the Crown, but the Judge before
whom he was tried said he could
hold no prospect of a reprieve or in
reference by her majesty. Riel was
sentenced to be hung on September
18th. The Orangemen and English
subjects generally consider it a right
eous judgment, while the French
Canadians claims that the trial was
not a fair one. AS his execution
will only serve to increase the hos
tile feeling of the half-breeds to the
Dominion government, probably the
worst use that can be made of Riel
is to hang him.

ENGLAND'S TRIBUTE TO GEN.
GRANT.

In was a notable scene which took
place in Westminster Abbey last
Monday afternoon when Grant me-
mortal service was held, with an adj
dress by Canon Farrar. That it
should have been held in that edifice,
sacred to the memory of English SOW
ereigns and of the most illustrous
among English subjects, and that it
should have been attended by the
most eminent living Englishmen, in
Guiding the chiefs of the late and
present ministries, the representa-
tives of the royal family, the COM
mander-in-chie of the English army,
and the highest in rank among the
nobility of the country, gave signifi-
cant proof of the change which has
taken place in English sentiment be-
tween the days 1861 and 1885, and
of the closeness With which the
ties of race and a community of ma
tional spirit and purpose have bound
the elder and younger nation to-
gether.
But more significant still were the
words of Canon Farrar in his memo
rial address. They included fer
vent and eloquent eulogy of Gen.
Grant as the product and representa-
tive of our American political and
social freedom. ''Such careers
the speaker declared, "are the glory
of the American continent; they
show that the people have intrinsic
force" Grouping with Lincoln and
Garfield the "leather seller of Gale
ma he avOwed that "every true
man derives a patent of nobleness
direct from God. Was not the Lord
for thirty years a carpenter in Nazar-
eth? Lincoln's and Garfield's and
Grants early conscientious attention
to humble duties fitted them to be-
come kings of men," And referring
to the war for the Union Canon Far
rar said: Goods own light has
shown for the future destinies of a
mighty nation that the war of 1861
was necessary-a blessed work.
The cause for which Grant fought
the unity of great people, the free.
dom of a whole race-was as great
and noble as when at Lexington,
THE embattled farmers stood
And fired the shot heard round the world
Considering the station of the
speaker, the place aud occasion o.
the address, and the character o.
the audience, Canon Farrar's word:
convey most generous and pecu
liarly gratifying tribute to the grea
American General and his country
When we remember the attitude o.
England during the dark days o
1876, and the ill-concealed hop
af the ruling classes for southern
success, it is evident that twent,
years of time and observation hav
opened English eyes to the rea
significance of the American war TO
the Union and the result.
