all in their accustomed places.

HonT. W. frenchard presenting

of age, and the assault consisted in a
quarrel with some negroes, which re-
suited in blows being struck, and
Powell admits having struck blows
buthe injured no one. Mr.. Trenchard
strongly urged that if consistent, the
Court would suspend sentence, he
thought there would be no further
trouble from Powell.
Prosecutor Logue then moved the
case OF the state against William Ar
mold, charged with grand larceny.
Mr. VanSyckle representing Arnold,
said that to his utter surprise, he was
compelled to ask for adjournment ow.
ing to the absence of material witnes
ses. A fair statement was made by
Mr.. VanSyckle, and there being no OBJ
lection upon the part of the State, the
case was adjourned until one week
from to day, at 1890 o'clock.

William Wainwright, taking horse
without consent, 80 days in County
Jail.
Henry Powell, assault, 80 days In
Jail from time of commitment.
Isaac Morris was given severe sem
tenee for cruelty to animals, because
the Court said it was disposed to brake
up this business, and fine of $100
and costs of prosecution was levied
upon him, and he will stand commit
ted until paid.
Sherman Pierce was told by the
Court that ne would have to stay in
jail for three months for obtaining
money by false pretense.
Michael Mcdonald was told by the
Court that he had twice before been
arrested for assaulting an officer and
he had also peen in State prison for it.
For the last offense he was sentenced
to two years in prison at hard labor.
Harry Goff, for grand lrrceny, was
told he had been in State Prison.
"Yes, sir, said Goff. "but was not

Court"
II was pardoned, sir" replied Goff.
"WeI, the Court will give you an
other opportunity of obtaining par
don. You are sentenced to IS months
in State Prison, and thence until che
costs of prosecution are paid"
Bert Thomas had sentence sus-
pended and went home with his
mother.

IIirsch, nee Whitney; passed away
from this life of sorrow to enter on
a newer, happier one.
The thought of death is always o
sad QUO hut oh! how doubly sad when
a yeung mother is called away from
her little babe; leaving it to struggle
through this world without her low
ing care and guidance. Hardly has
she tasted the joys of motherhood,
Ger her eyes are closed forever, and
the tcndst blossom she has given life
TO. is lost to sight: her ears are deaf
TO its pathetic cry; the mothers heart
is stilled in silest lasting sleep.
Deceased was a good Christian and
a worthy member of the Methodist

She was q good daughter, a true
friend and n devoted wife. The be-
reaved parents and sisters have sus-
tanned shock they will not soOn re-
cover; but the greatest loss is the little
ones, TOW doubly orphaned.
Dear pareEts do not grieye Tor her.
She hiss only gone before;
E'an now she watches over you
From that bright and heavenly shore.
Her sOrrows all are ended now;
Her pains are all forgot;
She is happy Nth the angels there,
And begs you, sorrow Eot.

HIS word be ever blest.

No British Interference. w..,.a

The comments Of the British pres;
upon the Presidents message and
Chfle's alleged answer thereto exhibit
} that lofty superiority of tore, and
contemptuous disdain Of the United
States as a second or third class pow
er. TO which we are accustomed from
English journals. To tkciR it seems
preposterous thu. the United States
should put themselves upon the same
plane as Great Britain in guarding
the rights OF their citizens. While il
would be OF. of the question for
England to pocket an insult Ike that
put upon Us by Chile, in the English
view it would be ridiculous for US to
pretend TO regard American citizen
ship as just and sacred as British citi-
~zcnship.
With the ordinary British obliquity
of view. the press, both Tory and
Liberal, affect to regard the Presi-
dents message as simply al election
ecriug document 10 catch the Irish
vote. Because Mr.. Egan is an Irish.
'nan, he is regarded as an enemy and
everything he does or docs not do is
upon in England as being ill.,
by Fenian hatred of that coun-
Try. and as having reference solely to
interests.
British subjects have tremendous
financial interests in Chile, and the
Government cannot view
with indifference any event that would
have a serious effect on British in
1t is. altogether probable,
therefore,. fiat that government will
volunteer to use its "Eind Offices" il
t has not done 50 already. to bring
bout a cessation of the present diff
iculty on p~caccable terms. To the
Tory, our difficulty with
lille is inst apetty squabble between
equally insignificant nations, the
lights of neither of whom can be con-
idered for a moment in comparison
nth British interests.
The responsible government Of
treat Bri'ian, however, has reason to
ours, and especial reason to
the administration of Presi-
ent Harrison. 1t is well Swnre that,
it should adopt the tone of the
british press in IFS relations with this
Duntry, it would promptly be brought
, a realizing sense of its imper-
nence.
In this matter of Chile. we can set
C onr own affairs without any help
ON Great Britain, and will not
from her any attempt at
indrance. 1t is our government, not
lie British, that will decide whether
reply to our demands is salts
Ictory or not. AS for arbitration
lat. in the present state of affairs, is
out Of the question.
