The Nations Patient.

General Grant is still among the
living, but his death is expected at
any hour. He has fought the grim
monster Death bravely. but according
to his own words he seems to think
further struggle is useless, and he is
resigned to 90 when the moment
comes. 1t is hardly reasonable to ex.
pect from the reports that the great
hero will live out the balance Of the
week May his end be peaceful.

HARRIsBURG, April 4, 'S5.
Monday evening session opened as
usual with the same quiet demeanor.
Very little excitement prevailed dur.
ing the week owing to the gloom how
ering over the House caused by the
illness of General Grant; much sym.
pathy is expressed here, and every
bulletin is hurriedly perused with
anxiety.
The House succeeded in transcrib.
ing the following appropriation bills
to third reading: s22,277 to provide
for deficit in the Department for the
support of Children of deceased Sol.
tliers; s13,S00 for current expenses
Board of Charities; $4,000 for
Board of Agriculture, which caused a
heated debate, but was finally tran.
scribed for third reading $159,326
for Reform School at Morganza !;
$125,500 for the Western Peun'a Hos.
pital at Pittsburgh; $59, 300 for the
State Hospital at Warren $3.50, 600
for the Industrial Hospital at Hunt.

tails, &c. Most all of the above bills
were opposed by Lowry of Indiana,
who endeavored to reduce amounts,
but did not succeed. We must give
Mr.. Lowry credit for his endeavors to
save the State money, but he should
not oppose all appropriation bills pre-.
sented. "Reform" is splendid word
to do battle in political concern, but
il is difficult to find fitting place for
its realization after victory has been
won.
1t is with much regret that the seat
of Mr.. Berry, of your County, has
been vacant during the week; his
smiling countenance has been missed
The following is copied from the Har-
risburgh Evening Independent, Of
Tuesday; "HOR. Peter Berry, Repre-.
sentative Of Forest County, was called
to Buffalo, N. Y, on Saturday by the
death of q favorite niece. 1t is the
first time he has been absent from his
seat since the meeting of the Legisla.

one of the best Committee workers of

qualities of Mr.. Berry, l shall do
likewise; if it does not meet with bis
approval | humbly beg pardon; men.
tion should be made OF the honorable

such man is Honorable Peter Berry.

part of this winter, almost total
