Actress Fannie Kemble Dead,

LONDON, Jan. 17.-Frances Anne KEN.
Die Mrs. Pierce Butler), the well known
actress, is dead, aged eighty-three. In
ie32 she visited America, and with her
rather performed with great success at the
principle theaters of the United States. An
account OF these wanderings is given in her
journal of Residence in America" in
1859. AT this period she became the wife
OF MT Pierce Butler, planter of South
carolina, from whom she obtained a divorce
In 1889 She resumed her maiden name
and retired to Lenox, Mass, where she re-
sided, with the exception of year spent in
Italy for nearly twenty years. From 1869
to 1873 she was in Europe. She then re-
turned to America, but subsequently came
back to London, where she resided until
her death. She published many volumes
of her own works.

gress would not agree in the counting of
the disputed votes.
In the emergency proposition was made
by the Democratic leaders to submit the
entire question to an electoral commission
composed of five senator's, five representa-
tives and five judges of the supreme court
This commission, by majority of one,
decided that the disputed votes should all
be counted for Mr.. Hayes, giving him a
majority of one vote, and he was duly
elected
In financial affairs his administration
was an unqualified success. 1t was his
good fortune to become president just at
the time when panic and depression were
giving way to better times" Seven years
oil uneXampled deficit in the crops of west
ern Europe and equally unexampled good
crops in the United States made the re-
sumption of specie payments possible. The
exports of grain in one year of his admins
tration exceeded the ten year average be-
lore the war, and one years imports of gold
were greater than all the previous gold i'm
| ports since the administration of James X.
Polk.
The exports of wheat alone for the ten
years terminating with June, 1881 (only
four months after President HAYES re.
tired), exceeded all preceding wheat ex-
ports since the country was settled Proyi-
dence had indeed come to the aid of the
country, and President Hayes and his able
finance minister, John Sherman, had the
nerve to seize the opportunity.
Mrs. Hayes died in Fremont in 1889. On
the day of her funeral thousands of per-
sons, many of them in the humber walks
of life, came from the surrounding country
to pay the last tribute of respect to her
who had been so universally beloved
From early morning until the hour set for
the obsequies an unending stream of visit
Drs poured in through the front door of the
homestead to take a farewell look at the
face of the benevolent but decided woman
who had passed away.
The last public act of ex- President Hayes
was his delivery of the opening address of
the national prison congress, of which he
was president, at Washington in Decem-
ber last
Mr.. Hayes was president of the National
Prison Reform association and of the
Slater education fund for the negroes; was
member of the Peabody Education Fund
for the South; was commander of the mill
tary order of the Loyal League of the
United States. The degree of LII. d. was
conferred upon him by Kenyon college,
Harvard university, Yale college and Johns
Hopkins university.

B. Hayes died at II o'clock last night, but
the information of his death was not
learned for some time later, as everything
was kept exceedingly quiet in the vicinity
of the Hayes mansion. An early report
that the patients condition was improving

suspicion, SO that the sudden appearance
of Webb Hayes with the announcement
that his father had just died proved shock

foot, and though but forty or fifty men fol-
| lowed so close as to keep up with him this
squad captured battery which had been
deemed perfectly secure. Again at Fish
er's Hill and Cedar Creek he performed
prodigies of yalor. His commission as
brigadier general sopn arrived, and on
March l3, 1865, he was made brevet briga-
dier general "for gallant and distinguished
services" In the meantime he had been
elected to congress from a Cincinnati dis
trict.
1t was on this occasion that he made his
famous retort. A friend having written
to him to come home in the fall of 1864 and
canvass the district, he answered with a
rather sharp reproof ending with this sem
tence, IAN officer fit for duty who at this
crisis would abandon his post to cleo
tioneer for seat in congress ought to be
Bcalped."
He was reelected in 1866, but his two
terms in congress were uneventful. He
voted with his party throughout, except
on some minor resolutions on finance In
view of his subsequent prominence as a
prompt resumptionst," it is rather singu-
lar that these votes indicated an opposition
to strong measures leading toward resump-
ton.
In 1867 he was nominated by the Repub-
licans for governor of Ohio and was elected.
No election of that era excited more aston
ishment. The state had long been over
whelmingly Republican, the majorities
ranging above 10000 for some years, yet at
the first election after the soldiers came
home, with phenomenally large vote, the
highly honored general had less than 5000
majority over Allen G. Thurman, and the
legislature was carried by the Democrats.
That body chose Judge Thurman for the
United States senate.
Governor Hayes was reelected in 1869,
this time by over 1000 majority. He had
now become the exponent of advanced
"hard money" views, and on the platform of
prompt resumption he made his third cam
paign for governor in 1875 receiving about
s, 800 majority after a campaign of almost
unprecedented vigor on both sides. In the
meantime he had run for congress in 1872
and been defeated by some 800 majority,
and had in 1873 retired from public life and
settled in Fremont, o. Soon after he came
into possession of the large estate of his
uncle, Silas Birchard, which further con-
firmed him in his resolution to lead a pri-
vate life, and he only yielded in 1875 to the
most earnest solicitations of the Republic
ans.
As President of the United States.
His repeated success in Ohio induced the
Republican national convention in 1876 to
nominate him for the presidency after
deadlock between the two great forces in
the party led respectively by Senator Ros-
coe Conkling and Speaker James G. Blaine.
When the election had taken place it
seemed certain that of the 1863 electoral
votes 1s4 would be cast for Mr.. Tilden, the
Democratic candidate, being one less than
a majority. There were thirteen electors
in respect to whose election there were
grave questions in dispute. In order to
secure the election of Mr.. Hayes all of
these thirteen votes must be counted for
him.
AS the Republicans had majority in the
senate and the Democrats in the house, it
was certain that the two branches of con-

George l.. Harlow was sent to the hospital
in Boston with broken leg. He was at
tended by DR.. Walker, who then sent him
home in herdic, distance of five miles,
giving him prescription of morphine to
be taken "a teaspoonful every hour" Har

into stupor and died. DIR. Walker was
called while Harlow was in the stupor, but

Eyes, but 1t will take just as
many dollars then to pay the debt
you owe to-day with this differ
ence, that they will be harder to
get. I want to ask any of you who
may have mortgage on your
farms, were you loaned money in
gold? Mop. All, they loaned you
Treasury notes and silver and now
they want to demonetize silver
and want you to pay them in gold.
They say that the silver of the
world will be dumped into the
country. Why don't they do it.?
Let me tell you that there is not
an intelligent man in this country
who would make such an assertion
who believes it. They know that
it is an improbability, aye, even an
impossibility. France is the great
est silver country of Europe. 1t
has in currency $75O,OOO,OOO of gold
and $9s0,0O0,000 of silver, inter-
changeable on an equal basis.
"Their ratio is 154 to l less than
ours. 1t takes more silver to make
an American dollar than its equiv
alent in French money. In fact,
it takes $l.10 of French money to
make an American silver dollar.
How could it pay France to dump
her silver here? There is practic-
ally no silver bullion in Europe"
Governor Stone in closing said he
had expressed his sentiments and
proposed to abide by them if he
was the only Missouri Democrat
who thought his way. He declar-
ed that the State of Missouri could
not have been carried last fall on
the issue of demonetizing silver.
The Governor was frequently
applauded throughout his speech,
which lasted fully two hours, and
was roundly cheered at its close.

"This issue, 1 believe as sure as
believe that God controls the
ways of the stars, is the result of a
foul, deliberate conspiracy formed
in Wall street with threefold
purpose.
"First, the conspirators want to
compel the Government to make
a new issue of gold bearing bonds,
to hear them talk, where on earth
will they get the money to buy
them?
Second, they hope to secure the
