Some Particulars About the Life and
Weight of Herman ID. Busch.
Captain Herman D. Busch, who died at
his handsome hotel in Hoboken last Sum
day evening, was probably at one time the
largest and heaviest man in this county
He came of fat family, his father and
mother both being stout, and his brother
being yet man of considerable avoirdu-
pois. At 16, when he came to this eoun-
try as a sailor boy, he weighed 1913 pounds,
and two years later his weight was not far
from 300 pounds. He was stoutest in 1878.
He was then perfect mountain of flesh.
He measured 721 inches around the girth.
and weighed over 55J pounds. He was so
broad that though he was over six feet
high he did not seem, to the glance, to be
more than feet or s. His consumption
Of food and liquors was something enor-
nous. He was elected to the Legislature,
and a chair had to be made to accommo-
date him, and when it had been placed at
his desk the aisle in the Assembly cham
Der had to be widened so that he could
reach it. His fat began to be uncomforta-
BILE, and he feared that it was unhealthy
as well, and he took to the Bahting diet to
reduce himself He abstained from all
e"OCt GAtuRS, anu at ouOSbhatlh fSSOGL-
bles, as potatoes, from milk and coffee.
and his meat diet was a little dried up
piece, only occasionally eaten. His drink
was a thin, unnutritious Mosel wine. In
Is months he had taken 40 pounds off his
weight, but sickness he suffered soon
after reduced him in three months by 60
pounds. He lost some days 10 pounds of
flesh. He weighed at death $40 pounds.
His wife is in singular contrast with him.
She is thin. delicate little woman who
does not weigh over hundred pounds. He
was the organizer of the New York Schuet-
zen Corps, and was its captain for a num-
Der of years. He was also a member of
the New Jersey Schuetzen Corps, and of
many other German societies. Enlarge
ment of the heart and dropsy were the
causes cf his death. He leaves, besides
his wife, three children, two daughters and
son, and fortune of 100000. The
funeral took place on Wednesday morning.

Cluverius, it is to be remembered, is a

good many instances of the morbid
idiocy Of presenting flowers to brutal
murderers; but there has hardly been
any instance which caps the climax so
completely as this attempt of the " al

hero of a man who betrays a member of
his own family and kills his victim to
escape the consequences. Is it possible
that there are true women who think so

STEWART AS A "FIklEND OF
LABOR

Virginia Chronicle: During the few
months that Mr.. Stewart has been in
Nevada for the purpose of acquiring a
constructive residence, he has posed as
the friend of labor. The miners OF
Bodie know what sort of a friend to
~workingmen Mr.. Stewart is. When he
was in that camp as the manager of the
MONDAY property-of which he was one
Of the OWNERSHIP. Stewart was open in
declaring his antagonism to the Miners
Union and all labor organizations. He
was loud in the expression of his belief
that cheap labor was needed to develop
the mines. Time and again he declared
to men, now in this State, that cheap
labor would be the only salvation of Ne.
vada. and that the State could not pros
per until the wages of miners and me-
chanics were reduced.
William NJ. Stewart, as a Senator, law.
yer and individual, always has been on
the side of wealth. He is over here now

THE UNION WITH IRELAND.

selves, have always held that the union
was founded upon gross violations OF
every national right, and had its origin
in chicanery and corruption, and there.
fore having never received the national
consent could stand only by force.
Historically, there never was any doubt
that they were right. Indeed, if a man
reads the history of that period and is
not convinced hat England's rule in
Ireland stands upon a foundation Of
groser wrong than any to be found in al
most any chapter of modern history, in.
Guiding the history of Poland, it is an al.
most necessary inference that his eyes
are blinded by some prejudice in favor Of
English authority. But this thing has
not, as a rule, been plainly spoken about
in England except by Irishmen them
selves; and the English nation has the
habit of not needing what Irishmen say
upon the subjects of this nature. Ire.
land, in fact, has the great misfortune to
have become q sort of Cassandra OF the
nations. She cannot be silent, and as
soon as her voice is heard upon the one
subject that is near her heart the audi.
ence rum away. But Mr.. Gladstone has
now done for her another act of great
friendship. He has raised upon this
very subject one voice to which England
will listen. Whether they oppose Mr..
Gladstone or believe in him, Englishmen
at least attend to what he says; and his
statement of the true nature Of the union
that it was never justly made and
never ratified by Ireland, and that she
does not demand a repeal of it, but
rather a just reorganization of her rela-
tions instead-will reach the reason of
the English people.

For the Ellsworth American
Easter-Bells.

The joy-ueils Of Easter are singing and
rnging-their glad chimes proclaiming the
glorious tidings Of the risen Lord
In chant and hymn the exultant strains
repeat the story and echo and reyerberate
The Lord is risen. The Lord is risen indeed.
And the children sing,
And the lily censers swing:
Sing that life and JOY are waking
And that Death no more is king
Is it, indeed, our own destiny that we
read in this yearly recurring miracle of life
in this reclo,hing Of the earth anew-in
this arising from the dead, of the green
grasses, and the clinging MOSES. and the
bright, bright flowers of spring? Though
stricken TO the core with winters cold, the
dropping tree revives. Shall not thus our
fainting hearts be warmed and fed, and the
stone from the mouth OF the sepulcher be
rolled away?
The human heart does respond rresisii-
bly, to this "happy tumult of the slowly
Frightening spring." and something of its
subtle spirit stirs to life new hope and a
clearer faith.
"And, as the earth her shroad of snow from
off her breast doth fling,
So may we cast our fefters off In Gods eternal
spring.
So may we find release at last from sorrow
and from pain,
So may we find our childhood's calm, delicious
dawn again.'
