OBITUARY..
MISS ELIZABETH G. GUSHING.

MISS ELIZABETH G. GUSHING.
1.-The recent death in Augusta of Miss
Elizabeth 6. Gushing suggests brief no.
| notice of herself and family, both being
| noteworthy. Her family was one of the
| earliest, and has been one of the..most dis
| tinguished in tho history Of New Eng
land. 1t was an old history family in
| bingham, England, where Matthew, son
of Rev. Peter Cushing, was born 1888,
| the year of the Spanish Armada's defeat
reminding us of our connection with
the great events of English history. He
one of the early settlers of bingham,
| Mass. Rev. Jeremiah, born in Scituate,
| was the father of Ezekiel, one of the lead
ing military men and merchants of his
generation. Col. Cushing's house and
place of business was at Cape Elizabeth.
| near Simonton's Cove, and on the Point
which retains his name end the site of
his dwelling. Cushings island was first
named after him, who sold it to Col
Bangs, but in our day it has come to it's
original name again.
Miss Cushing's father lived on Federal
street, where Lincoln Park is now. The
family near and remote was numerous,
and nearly all proved worthy of their
ancestry. Miss Cushing was sister of
the late Mrs. Capt. Dunlap, whose home
has passed to the Orphan asylum. She
was also an aunt to the late Mrs. James
Russell Lowell, and like her woman
of literary tastes and culture. She had a
clear and vigorous intellect, warm and
generous heart, and all the leading
traits which characterized her family
from the first She lived and died in a
firm and reasonable Christian faith, and
at .he time OF her decease, aged "a years,
was the Oldest member of ST. Stephens

which have not yet been modified; give
him such latitude as to change at once
the hours during which vessels were for
hidden to leave and enter the harbor.
These hours it will be remembered were
from eight in the evening to four the fol.

AT the lighthouse board no orders have

the race to 60 over unfinished till today
Success and General were tied for second
honors in the preliminary guessing.
All three of these horses gave a good
account of themselves, each taking heat
and getting a new mark. This race was
the most exciting of all, the contestants
being we'll punched over most OF the
course, and their places continually
shifting. j. T., whose driver drew the
pole, is bad actor in scoring. Every
time he attempted to bring the field down
to the wire he went off his feet. Finally
the starter ordered the drivers to score by
the second horse, Queen Wilkes. She,
TOO, behaved badly and was the cause of
several vain attempts to get the field
away. Driver Proctor got down from
behind j. Z. and allowed Allen Lowe
to experiment with the animal. Lowe
had better luck, bringing the horse down
to the wire at level gait several times,
but in the critical test the gray gelding
went off his feet and fell so far to the
rear that to catch the field was hopeless.
But the next time Lowe landed in third
place.
The finish of this race today is bound
to be exciting. The horses will be called
at 1880. The regular programme this
afternoon includes 2.s4 trot, 2.a9 pace
and 2. IA trot. Merriman's band, led by
Mr.. Chandler, enliyened the occasion.

MOSAIC FROM COMMENTARIES.
Jehoshaphat: Shares with Hezekiah in having
the most written about him in the chronicles of
any of the kings of Judah after Solomon.-Whit-
tie.
Placed forces: The first thing Jehoshaphat did
was to check the growing greatness of Israel.
Henry
First ways of David: The distinction is nowhere
so distinctly made between David's first ways and
his ast.-Ibid.
Not the doings of Israel: Though the king of
Israel was his neighbor and ally Jehoshaphat did
not learn his ways.-Ibid.
All Judah-presents: The more of true religion
there Is among a people, the more there will be
of conscientious loyalty.-Ibid.
Gray.
High places and groves: Nothing had debauched
the nation more.--Henrv.
They made no war: Providence ordered it, that
while priests were instructng, neighbors gave no
molestaton.-Ibid.
THE TEACHERS CULVER.

pears in the dynasty of Judah-worthy son of

to give PROSPEROUS times. But it does matter
