The death of Abraham Lincoln, the
Is year old son of Robert T. Lincoln,
is heard with sincere sorrow by the
American people everywhere. Aside
from the interest which attached to
him by reason of his bearing the
name of his grandfather, the mar
tyred President, was the fact that he
was a youth of unusual promise, I'M
spoiled by his surroundings, and
possessed of many of the qualities of
heart and mind which characterized
the boyhood of his distinguished an
cestor But he could add no new lus-
tire to the honored name he bore and
his early death takes away the re-
mote chance that he might prove I'M
worthy of it.

WONDERFUL ADVENTURES OF HENRY NJ.
STANLEY.-The man who would have dared
three hundred years ago to attempt crossing
this American Continent in the face of hostile
and treacherous Indians, uncertainties offOod
water for long distances and in peril of
wild beasts, would have been brave indeed,
and hero if he succeeded. But Africa is far
larger than North America its sayages more
treacherOus, its wild beasts infinitely more
ferocious, its toPrid suns more dangerous, its
feyers and poisonous insects more deadly.
Yet through this dark continent for thous-
ands upon thousands of miles Stanley has
penetrated its recesses. braved its myriad
dangers, explored its immense rivers and in
land seas, discovered its untold wealth and in
twenty years has given to the world u new
and vast continent for civilization and cult
walton. Upon this land of gold, diamonds,
fruits, ivory, spices, etc, all the great nations
are striving for colonial possessions. Stan
ley stands to-day greater than Columbus,
Franklin, Livingstone, or any other of the
world's previous eX ploFers and his adventures
excel in thrilling interest all the records of
fact or fiction. The most authentic volume
recounting his marvellous adventures and
achievements from his first entrance into At
RIGA to his late return to civilization is that
issued by the enterprising firm of Hubbard
Bros, of Boston, they having employed able
literary men to weave from Stanleys own
fragmentary writings a graphic connected
narrative of the whole twenty years story.
1t is practically Stanley's own story is in
tensely interesting, very profusely illustrated,
contains a new and superior map of the whole
region and sells at only S2.75. This work
must inevitably have an immense sale and we
should suppose wide-awake young men and
women who want to make money quickly,
and good deal of it, would apply to the
publishers at once for an agency. Our read
ers will certainly be glad of a chance to secure
so rich book at so low a price.

The question of a successor to Con

sion. The Bennington Banner for
mally announces the candidacy OF
Hon. ]. K. Batchelder, while it is I'M
derstood as has been previously an
nounced by the Clipper, that Hon. II
Henry Powers is a candidate. Mr..
Powers will have a strong and vigO-
rous support from this section of the
State, while Mr. Batchelder will meet
with a cordial support from his own
county. Both are able men, but we
believe that Judge Powers will hold
the lead from the start.

into the story in detail, but corrects
misleading statements and erroneous
ideas which have heretofore been pub
lished regarding this "cheese box on

Griswold, John F. Winslow, and c. S.
Bushnell, assumed the entire burden
of responsibility-the former contrib
uting his time and labor, and the
three latter bearing the financial bur-
den, which was by no means a specu-
lative enterprise. True patriotism
and strong faith was what encour-
aged them to take risks in the ven
ture, and We're it not for their persist
ent efforts the first Monitor would
probably never have been built.
