GEN. McCLELLAN's FUNERAL.


The funeral of Gen. George B. Nc
Clellan OH Monday last was noticeable
for It's extreme simplicity. 1t was at
tended by representative men from
different states. There was no display
Of military parades or bands of music,
not withstanding Gen. Mcclellan had
been a military man Of the highest
rank. There were no church decora-
lions, no funeral grafton, no elaborate
music, only two simple and familiar
hymns, the entire service occupying
only half an hour. When the process
sion moved there was no sound OF
drum or booming Of cannon. Fol
aught of unusual demonstration that
appeared, the funeral might have been
taken for that of a child, had it not
been for the crowd of distinguished
people present. Many persons will
say that such a funeral for one of higf
rank is quite as sensible as one of i'm
posing grandeur and display.

There have been many vague rumOrs
in respect to the manner in which
Michael Kleist came 10 his death, who
was found dead partly in the water on
Sunday morning last II ar the island
bridge. The only witness sworn at
the inquest was Dr. A. Farr, who
gives it as his belief that Kleist did
not come to his death by violence.
The bruises on his face or head DR..
Farr accounts for as not having been
caused by second person. Kleist had
been out OF employment for some time,
was depressed, and it is said was seen
badly intoxicated on Saturday evening
before his death. The saloon keeper
who sold him the drink that led him to
destruction is unknown, but it is not
impossible lie may be u candidate for
some city Office next spring, Mr..
Klest leaves a wife and several chill
dren.

For. Partners WIVES AND
DAUGHTERS

The services of Miss Hammond, Of
the Milwaukee Cooking School, have
been secured for lectures and practical
demonstrations in the service of cook
ing at some of the Farmers Institutes
to be held next winter. The advan.
tages OF a proper knowledge of cook
ing are probably not appreciated by
some farmers wives. Those who have
made the subject a matter of study
and investigation are confident that
the average cooking in families is
capable IF great improvement, not
only in preparing more palatable food
from the same materials, but also
securing greater economy in the cost
of eatables and rendering the food pre-
pared more conducive to health. It
cannot be doubted that much food
eaten which is pleasing to the taste is
detrimental to the human system.
How to avoid the unWholesome chemi-
cal combinations of different substances
used in cooking will be treated upon
by Miss Hammond and the rules of
hygine will be dWelt upon. Whether
Miss Hammond will be at the Farm
ers' Institute which is proposed to be
held for Kenosha and Racine counties
unitedly is not vet settled. But If it
is known she will be present, it is
reasonable to conclude the wives and
daughters of at least some of the farm
ers will be in attendance and avail
themselves of the offered instruction.

The details of criminal courts. seDsa-

the details of criminal courts. seDsa-
tional and exciting news. extravagant
stories and romances, prize fights, base
ball games and riots-all these are read
with eagerness and satisfaction. But
literature of high order is neglected.;
profound treaties on scientific, moral
and useful subjects, such as give
strength and power to the intellect, re-
ceiye but little or no attention. To the
credit of the women be it said that "A
large proportion of the literary month
lies and quarterlies are patronizel by
them. There is manifeStly a fault
here, which is chargeable to the early
training Of boys; instead Of being en-
couraged TO cultivate taste for the
better class OF reading, they have been
allowed TO crafty passion for profit
less publications; and when once the
taste for these is formed. it is difficult
to rise to higher standard
The universal reading in these times
is the newspaper; this medium of
news is scattered through the country
almost as plentiful as autumn leaves.
Probably but few persons realize the
amount of reading matter in the aver
age newspaper. BY a careful calcula-
ton the daily issue of large Chicago
paper contains as much reading matter
as good size book, while the paper
costs less than three cents per copy by
the year. The av erage weekly news
paper. costing from $3.50 to $500 per
year, contains reading sufficient in the
course of twelve months to make a
small library, were it put in book form.
Of all the general and miscellaneous
reading most accessible to the people,
the newspaper is the cheapest. 1t
aims to treat on all matters of interest.
There was time when religious sub
jects were almost entirely excluded
from the secular press; now the news,
papers in the large cities publish al
most as much religious intelligence as
IS found i'll the journals classed re-
ligious. One newspaper at least should
be found in every family, and, if but
one, that should be the home or county
paper. That supplies local want
which any other paper cannot.

ENGLISH ELECTIONS.

The interest which continues to be
manifested in this country in respect
to the coming elections in England is
greater than before for years. The
new voting power of 2,000,000 which
has been invested with The exercise of
the suffrage rights gives great import
ance to the election, especially when
the momentous questions involved are
to be submitted to the people for their
decision. The question of church dis
establishment, although not directly in
the issues, nevertheless enters into the
controversy. 1t is asked will the Eng
lish Catholics favor the disestablish-
ment of the English church? We
have been requested to publish the
views of Cardinal Manning (Catholic)
on the English Catholic vote, printed
in the London Telegraph. We cannot
comply with the request, as the publ
cation entire would cover number of
columns of this paper. A couple of
paragraphs of Cardinal Manning's arti-
Gle are given, showing his friendly re-
gard for the English church. and
Catholics are counseled to vote accord
ingly.
1--WE may ask then further question
of closer application. What are the
duties of the Catholic Church in Eng
land to the people of England, especially
at this moment when two millions
have been admitted to the exercise of
political, that is of governing power?
1.-THE answer seems to be as follows
The first duty which is by necessity
laid upon us is to sustain, to confirm,
to uphold, and to perfect everything of
Christian truth, and of natural morali
ty still subsisting in the English PEG
pie. England, indeed, is not Catholic,
for it has lost it's participation in the
unity of the faith, but it is profoundly
Christian still.
1.-THE lives and actions, the words and
writings of multitudes are Christian
In the last forty years between thirty
and forty millions of money have been
spent in restoring, or enlarging, or
building churches; IL million is contri-
buted every year for the Christian mis-
sions to the empire or to the heathen
Every day in the month of Maya
time specially dear to the Catholic
church some society of charity or
piety, having its centre in London, and
it's ramifications in all the country,
holds it's annual gathering. Since the
year 1888 some thirty millions at least
have been spent in Christian educa-
ton, and every year Christian schools
have multiplied These are not the
works of people which has ceased to
be Christian"
Rev. Sturgeon, the great preacher
takes the opposite view of the question.
He has written letter for publication,
in which, while he wishes the church
well, he considers the union Of church
and state unscriptural, fraught with
countless evils and injustice towards
dissenters, and therefore ought to be
discontinued. In conclusion he says:
" / am not disposed to handle the ques-
ton with bitterness, and cannot regret
the impending change" It is under
stood that differences of opinion are
entertained IN the Episcopal church in
this country on the question of discs
Enlistment. some holding that the adj
vantages from the present order are

The new election law which was
framed az the last session of the legis-

Parnell, the leader for Ireland's in
dependence, has by common consent
great powers entrusted to him. In
stead of holding nominating meetings
or conventions for obtaining candi-
dates, to be supported for members of
Parliament, Parnell travels through
the different election districts in Ire
land and selects the men whom he
deems the most proper to be voted for,
His selection of candidates appears to
be cheerfully acqmesced in; but such
& method would be rejected by the
anxious office seekers in this country
nor is it probable it will be submitted
to for more than once in Ireland.
But there is Il reason for comforting
this power on Parnell at this time
there is a necessity for unity of action
between the members chosen from Ire
land to accomplish the INDEPENDENCE
which the people seek to gain. There
are diverse opinions as to the best
policy to be pursued; divided, Ireland
cannot hope to accomplish delivermce;
united, much may be achieved.

Gen. George r.. Mcclellan, who died
on Thursday of last week, removes and
other prominent man who has occupied
a large space in our history. When a
distinguished man dies the press and
people are quick to unfold his history.
All his public movements in the past
are brought out and made the subject
of praise or unfriendly comment.
Gen. Mcclellan, now that he has pass
ed away, will have his history chron-
icled in the public press more fully
than ever before. While there will be
no disposition IN any respectable quar-
ter to do him injustice, his mistakes
will be freely noticed and his good
qualities spoken of as they deserve.
AS amilitarY man he was great for
planning, but a failure in executing.
Had he been the sole commander. the
war would have been interminable.
When it would have ended no one can
have an intelligent opinion From
the high position Gen. Mcclellan has
occupied, his death has been appropri-
ately noticed throughout the Union
and sympathy by telegraph expressed
from the other side Of the Atlantic.
His funeral was attended by large
number of distinguished persons at
the Madison avenue Presbyterian
church, New York city.

TUESDAYS STATE ELECTIONS.

The elections on Tuesday last re-
suited not materially different from
what was generally expected; except
New York was claimed by both parties.
New York city, where there are many
good and noble men. yet where are
congregated the worst elements of
society in larger propt rtion than in
any other5city, is always Democratic
The rura districts of the state, in
which resides the moral power and
general intelligence, are almost certain
to have their verdict at the ballot box
reversed by the great city of New
York. The state has given Demo-
cratic majority for Governor of about
1850.
The Senate elects II Democrats and
81 Republicans. The Assembly elects
81 Democrats and Is Republicans; the
latter have q good majority on joint
ballot.
One of the chief causes of RepubIi-
can defeat in New York is attributable
to the political prob ibitionists. The
leading prohibition organs had quite
as much abuse for the Republican
party as for the liquor sellers. The
prohibitiOnists were alnaterial aid to
the Democrats.
VIRGINIA.
A few oVer-sanguine Republicans
had hopes of carrying Virginia, but it
is useless to entertain such expecta-
ton until the time comes when there
shall be tolerance of speech and peace

GRAFT, elected Governor by 1000 major

Larrabee, Republican, elected Gov
ernor by about 5000. The Republican
majority in the state two years ago
was a little less than 1000. Iowa is
really an overwhelmingly Republican
state, but legislative prohibition and
other questions have divided the party
and greatly reduced its old-time ma
