The steamship Anchoria, so long
overdue, and concerning the safety of
which so much anxiety was felt as she
had 700 passengers on board, had a most
eVentful voyage. Her shaft broke when
four days out from Glasgow, and for
fourteen days she drifted helplessly up
on the waters. The temporary repairs
then effected only held good during
again helpless hulk upon the ocean.
At this time she was found to be but
eighty miles of Newfoundland, and
there being a scarcity of supplies it was
determined to attempt to reach land in
an open boat, First officer MacFarlane
and seven others, volunteers, left the
ship on the eighth instant, the silence
being unbrOken by human sound rs
they pulled away on their heroic errand.
The ship steadily drifted landward and
the welcome cry OF land, no! ran
through the ship, and another volunteer
crew was despatched to secure tow
for the disabled steamer. Both crews
reached land safely. and the ship finally
came to anchorage. after a weary voy-
age Of twenty-three days, nineteen of
them with little or no power OF direct
Ing the vessels course. The passengers
all arrived in good health, and no acct
dent of any kind occurred to any on

membered and will form an epoch in the

SALMON =. CHASE, chief justice OF the
United States, born January 10, lSOS,
died May 7, 1873, now rests in the Gene
terry Of his native State, according TO his
oft repeated wish. When he died
great man, trHe republican, and an
honest judge was taken away from this
nation. The example he left, the les
sons he taught, remain. There Is much
that is pathetic in his life, and much also
that is deeply instructive. For the
daughter whom he cherished-beautiful,
brilliant, beloved Kate Chase, the nation
has never ceased to sympathize. Her
sad history will never cease to move
American hearts. She was true daugh-
ter; she has proved herself devoted
mother. and would have been self
sacrificing wife to any man, noble
minded enough to have commanded the
respect OF her dignifled womanho0d.
Yesterday, the noble old chief justice
was laid silently to rest in the vault pre-
pared for him in State that ever loved
to do him honor. In hOnOring him she
only honored herself and approved her
appreciation of his sterling manhood and
great craftsmanship. Ohio has had
many noble Sons. and Salmon p. Chase
was the peer Of any one of them of all;
many brilliant intellectual women, and
sad-hearted Kate Chase was no whit be-
mind the Chiefest of them all.

The subjoined is published with,

4 Nv 'ND - I" 49,
out comment, because to candid
minds it speaks for itself, especially
when read between the lines.-ED.
To tie Editor of the Herald:
The report you gave last week of
the address given by the Democratic
candidate for Lieut-Governor, Mr..
Meldon, was of such nature that ]
Judge you did not attend the meet
ing but took your cue from some
one who did attend, but not being
in sympathy misrepresented the pro-
ceedings. You call the opening re-
marks, | suppose you refer to those
of the chairman,) "irrelevant and
personal" Had you known the CON
nection in which Mr.. Fitzgerald
spoke rs he did, you could not have
thus described them. In substance,
he alluded to the fact that he was
addressing a minority, and said that
they would remain such until they
acted en- force in the March meeting
and put down the ring that is run
ming the town just as they please,
and not tor the advantage of the
citizens. TO prove this allusion to
mismanagement he cited the High
School case, which we all know he
did not exaggeratc. Do you sup
pose any individual member of the
Board would allow five cents over a
private contract ? Of course not.
SO You see in speaking of the audi.
cncc as a minority and showing why
this was so he had to allude to mat.
tiers which you are pleased to cal
irrelevant" Do you think so now
The remarks were "personal," but
none too much so. Do you allow a
man to insult your opinions without
saying a word? l had supposed
myself as well posted in regard to
the address as you, yet I have not
heard one say he was not pleased
with Mr.. Meldon's remarks. If you
have heard of one who was not,
would like you to state what he dis
approved of. In an assembly of two
or three hundred it is hard to please
everyone and it may have been your
good fortune to have met the one
man who was displeased. But it
would appear to me that before
coming out and saying what you
did in that connection it would have
been better to see if you expressed
the general opinion. The speaker
did not expect to please the opposi.
ton. lie was not here for that pur.
pose. He undertook to show that
Republican rule in this State and
the general government was not ir
accordance with the best interests
of our country. Of course, we dc
not need to take his word for it. We
knew it before, but what he sale
went to show that the Democrats Of
Island Pond are not alone in having
those beliefs.
This article, Mr.. Editor, is not in
tended as censure against you
but as reproach and protest against
your sending to your subscribers the
idea that we have been disappointed
in Mr.. Meldon, for | do not thinl
we were, except, possibly, in SOM
one or two instances which occur il
all parties but which should not b,
taken as the rule: Your reference
to the result of the elections a
showing the effect of the address
are uncalled for. We knew we wer,
beaten before we began, but l Dc
not think it in good taste to sneer a
an opponent after he is down.

Mr.. SPARKS, the alleged land COM
missioner, must retire from office. He
is incompetent for the position he
holds, and should emigrate west and
grow up with the country. He would
do well to take claim in some min

When he was christened, q grievous
mistake was made in titling him
"Sparks," as he is less Of a luminary
than any spark we have ever seen.
Since he has been in office. he has at
tanned a reputation which he can
wallow in the rest of his natural days.
The reputation is so thick it could be

DIMINISHED traffic and unremuner-
tive rates have brought low the earn
ings of the railroads in the southwest,
and to the cutting of the tariffs to the
extent INDUCED in 10y competitive
railway companies can be ascribed
the result of the labor troubles which
are at present so agitating the country.
Diminished traffic and low rates were
the cause of the reduction in labor
wages or the corps of laborers, and the
railway operators are now paying the
penalty of their folly in slaughteripg
rates. To guard against a REPETITION
of such folly, there should he better
railway legislation in the southwest,
and Congress should take voice in the
matter OF railway competition in cut
ting rates and destroying the harmony
of the operation of the railway in all
its departments. Regulation by state
boards is not equal to the task. Laws
fixing minimum rates are of little use.
Congress must take action.

CORRECT was DR.. Talmage, when he
said in his sermon last Sunday that
the newspaper is the great educator of
the nineteenth century. There is no
force like that of the newspaper, and
nothing can be compared TO it. 1t in
fluences public opinion, and is the
prime factor in every good movement.
A good, live newspaper in a country
town, daily or weekly, does more 10
encourage industry than all other
means put together. The newspaper
does more for civilization than all the
preachers, school teachers and mis-.
sionaries in christendom. IL Is book,
pulpit, platform, forum, all in one.
And there is not an interest-religious,
literary, scientific, agricultural or me-
chanical--that is not within its grasp.
There are comparatively few people
who read the works of great authors
On modern science, but still all are
familiar with them. And whence
comes this knowledge-from the
newspapers. 1t is the grand agency
by which the gospel is to be preach
ed, ignorance cast out, oppression
dethroned, crime extirpated, the
world raised, Heaven rejoiced, and
God glorified.
