difference between the business classes in that
city and our own with regard to local politics.
The New York Chamber of Commerce, which
took the initiative year ago in the creation
of the Committee of Seventy, and again this

purely business and not political organiza-

apparent resignation, closed of them

that sweet placid smile, often noticed
at such moment, betokening as we
would feign believe, the spirits happy
release from mortality, and yet which
makes the features seem yet alive.
At the same instant the soft faint
strains of hymn being sung in the
Presbyterian church, across the way,
foated through the open window and
over the bed, suggesting the joyful
welcome the emancipated soul was
then receiving among the angels who
had come to meet it and conduct it
up the shining shores to her mansion
of promised rest. A lovelier day the
dear Father never appointed for
souls journey to the skies; and she
herself could not have hoped for an
easier parting of the cord that had
SO long held her to the beautiful
earth. We could only say, cit is well

the Episcopal church, near by, and

Forest Hill, Boston. The funeral
procession, our own family only, in
Guiding the servants, entered the vine
arched door of the church, at precise

in their vestments met the bearers
and their charge, and whom we sol
emily followed down the aisle past
vacant pews. Of all besides half
dozen strangers and ourselves, the
great quiet room was empty. 1t was
