The course TO be pursued by this gov-
ernment in view Of the present condition
does not appear to admit OF serious doubt
Having labored faithfully for many years
TO induce Great Britain to submit this dis.
pute to impartial arbitration and having
been now finally apprised Of her refusal to
DO so, nothing remains but to accept the
situation to recognize its plain require
ments, and deal with IL accordingly Great
Britain's present proposition has nevor
thus far been regarded as admissible by
Venezuela, though any adjustment of the
boundary which that country may deem
for her advantage and may enter into Of
her own free will cannot, of course, be OBJ.

Of Venezuela will remain unchanged, the
dispute has reached such a stage as to

States to take measures TO determine with
sufficient certainty for its justification
what is the true divisional line between
the republic of Venezuela and British
Guiana The inquiry to that end should
of course be conducted cassully and iu-
dicialy and due weight should be given
TO all available evidence records and facts
in support of the claims of both parties
In order that such an examiSatiun

satisfactory manner, ] suggest that tho
congress make an adequate appropriation
for the expenses Of n commission, to be
appointed by the executive, which shall
make the necessary investigation and re-
port upon the matter with the least possi-
bic delay. When such report is made and
accepted, it will, in my opinion, he the

preparation by Great Britain of any lands

In making these recommendations

that while it is n griovous thing to CON
template the two great English speaking

than friendly competitors in the onward
march of civilization and strenuous and
worthy rivals in all the arts of peace,
there is no calamity which great nation

COLUMBUS, O., Dec. 13.-Ex Senator
Allen g. Thurman is dead. The passing

him and lies down to pleasant dreams"
The end vas peaceful in the extreme, and
the spirit of the great man left its earthly
habitation without sign Of physical dis
tress. At the instant of dissolution and
for some hours prior Mr. Thurman had
been lying in an unconscious condition,
and the change was hardly noticeable to
tho members of the family gathered at his
bedside. On Nov 1 he slipped and fell
while walking in his library, causing a
severe shock to his nervous system. 1t
was feared during tho week following that
he would die but it is believed that he
had quite recovered from the effects of
this accident. He had since been in fair
ly good healtlp for one of his age, and his
demise at this time was unexpected. He
was sitting up reading yesterday, when
he was taken suddenly i'll and soon be-
came unconscious, in which state he re.
mnined to the end. Death was not due to

says it is expected that the next
President will be a Republican. Ii
so, it is highly probably Senate
Quay will be invited to and will ac-
cept a place in the Cabinet, thus
leaving his scat in the Senate to be
filed by Il man from the western sec
tion of the State.
This hardly agrees with the state
ment in other papers that Cameron
will be offered a seat in the mex
Cabinet, provided the President is &
Republican and Senator Quay is in
favor with the administration as he
doubtless would be but il is far
more acceptable news for the Re
publicans of this State to peruse.
Senator Quay in the Cabinet would
please the great majority of people
in this state just as much in proper
ton as Senator Cameron in the Cab
met would displease them. Quay
has shown himself a Republican. and
his services in the campaign of 1855,
and subsequently, and his work in
behalf of the manufacturers in this
State in the last Congress whereby
changes were forced in the Demo
cratic tariff bill are not likely to be
forgotten.
Nor will the people forget that
senator Cameron is not a Republi-
can. His vote in the Senate confirms
them in his belief.-Free Press.

gether with the captain and 10 men, who
were part of a crew of 20 men, the first
mate, second mate and four seamen being
picked up by the British steamer Tafna,

plosion of the ships cargo of naphtha and

and the port holes at the stern. terrif-
10 explosion followed, and instantly ev-
cry man on board the doomed ship was
either thrown or jumped into the icy wa
ter, The Tafna put out boats to rescue
the mon, but they were only able to pick
up six. 1t is supposed that the remaining
ii were so injured by the explosion or
numbed by the cold water that they were
unable to battle with the heavy sea which
was running at the time.
The Athena was owned by Auborohard
& Rostwick Of Bremen. She was 1, 3SS
