THE ROMAN FORUM.
An Interesting Article on the Historic
Spot From the Pen Of the Rev.
7. q. BVrne.

j. q. BYrne.
The first contemplation Of place,
concerning which We have both read
and heard much, never fails to awaken
in us the most profound emotion. Our
fanc1es then are carried away by the
widest, the most grotesque and anon
alous pictures, which crowd in iostling
and pushing one another for the favor
of a passing recollection. II the place
is one which, through declining ages
was often the theater of great spectacular
and historical events. like the Roman
Forum which I am about to describe,
the observer loses thought Of all around
him. and grand separations Of the past
people once more the haunts 80 long
deserted, men aud times return, things
broken stand erect. the old and dis
mantled become new and brilliant, and
if he does not fall into reverie not
unlike dream it is because his imagi-
nation has been seized with decay.
Some years ago, one beautiful evening
in May, the writer, somewhat versed in
Roman history, enough. at least, to
highly appreciate the favor he was en-
joying, stood on the Sacred Way, and
leaning against q broken pillar, for the
first time gazed on the most fanous
spot on earth, the Roman Forum. Bnt
what desolation was there! Pillars that
had sustained the most palatial struc-
lures, lay broken on ell side; stones
with inscriptions most ancient. telling
of the triumph Of this emperor or the
munifcence of that, were strewn around
or ignobly heaped together, triumphsl
arches, blackened and shattered BY the
ravages of time, stood totter1ng;; Of the
once magnificent temples but . few
arches and Auted columns remained. A
little further on grass and moss grew
on the crumbling walls Of the palace Of
the Caesars, and fresh supports were
being built to hold the there Of the
coliseum in place. Howall was changed
from the daNsof long ago, when, IN the
grandest magnifcenoe, and through the
widest throngs on this very spot. en-
perors walked like gods nay, proclaim
ed Themselves to be endowed with the
divinity! How all was changed from
the days when the people here met and
made laws, winch were felt in the last
nesses Of the Caucasus, on the shores OF
Britain and on the far-of banks Of the
Gnadalquiver! But fancy. which was

He was the son of Presbyterian clergy.
man, and grew up model of moral excel
lence, physically strong and vigorous, a
large, commanding figure, a great hearted
man, endowed with superior mental facul.
ties. and thoroughly educated.
He entered the legal profession with all
the old time preparation, an accomplished,
dignihed, honest lawyer. He was never
known to even seem TO influence client to
engage in doubtful litigation. No one ever
suspected him Of attempting to demoralize
a witness. He could not stoopto the unpro-
fessional method ofroping in clients or even
soliciting professional business, never was q
sycophant or toady to corporations or indl-
viduals for political or professional perfer-
ment, never fawned nor latttered to obtain
employment of any kind.
His manly uprghtness was proverbial
during all the thirty years and over that he
resided at Two Rivers, in this county. His
modesty in reference to SeifwaS unsurpassed,
always prudent and conservative in his legal
advice, always for compromise and settlement
of differences, where settlement was possible.
He was not much sought after by the
chronic ltigant. Most of his clients desired
to avail themselves of his law knowledge fol
purely business purposes, and mainly out
side of llugated trials in Court. His mind
was clear, and his legal conclusions concise
and to the point.
He was eminently fitted for the Bench,
and as County Judge of Manitowoc County
for three years, from 1862 to 1865, he care
fully, economically and honestly guarded
AMI protected the interests of parties inter
esjcd in the estates Of deceased persons. and
made such equitable and fair adjustment;
and distributions Of said estates that not q
single appeal was taken from his decisions.
In all his professional and official work
his acts were those of master in the use
of his favorite implement, although the du-
ties of life called MIN to other and different
employments. yet the law and its admins
tration was his JOY and his ornament.

THE Green Bay road from Roepke's
Mill south to within half mile of 1'eit-
gems is in most wretched condition. 1t
Is almost impossible and is always in
that condition after a rain. No work has
been done on that portion of the road for
years. TO compel the people to put the
road in passable condition would be an
infringement upon personal liberty, just
as compulsory education in English is,
and the democratic managers of the state
would likely make the compulsory im-
provement of that bit of road an issue in
the state campaign. This personal
liberty business on road matters is death
to horses. though.

HERE IS more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable For a
great many years doctors pronounced it
local disease, and prescribed local RENE
dies and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced It in
durable. Science has proven catarrh to
be constitutional disease, and therefore
requires constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure, manufactured by T. j.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. 1t is
taken internally in doses from 10 drops
to teaspoonful. 1t acts directly upon

system. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for

returned he found his watch chain dang
ling and his watch was gone. On making
