We find the following in the Army and
Navy Journal of Aug. 13 :—
MAJon CHARLES B. Wnrra,Surgeon United
States Army, died on Wednesday Aug. 10,
at his home in Wilton, Conn., in the forty-
fourth year of his age. . He was an officer of
large experience. and highly esteemed by his
professional brethren and numerous friends.
Appointed (from New York) an assistant
surgeon in the Regular Army, May 1, 1861,
he soon had occasion to exercise his skill in
active service in the field with the Army of
f' the Potomac. After the battle of Malvcrn
Hill he remained with the wounded left in
the hands of the rebels. He took part in the
battles of Chantilly, South Mountain, An-
tietam, and the action of Sheperdstown, and
served as surgeon-inchief of the artillery
reserve in the Army of the Potomac. With
General Burnside’s division he was present
in the battles of Fredericksburg, Virginia,
and afterwards took charge of the General
Hospital at Pittsburg, Pa. Appomted staff
surgeon to headquarters of the Thirteenth
corps, Army of the Tennessee, heparticipated
in the march through.MlSSlSSlppl, Louisiana
and Texas, serving in the last mentioned
State as medical director of the forces. He
also acted as post surgeon at Jackson Bar—
racks in New Orleans during the prevalence
of the cholera. March 13, 1865, he was made
captain and brevct major for faithful and
meritorious services during the war. He was
promoted May-28, 1866, to be captain and
assistant surgeon, and October 1, 1875, was
made major and surgeon. Surgeon White
leaves a Wife, three daughters and two sons,
one of'the latter an infant of three months.
His death resulted from a malignant tumor
in the left axilla, from which he has suffered
for over three years. The tumor was removed
three years ago, but .returncd with marked
increase in December last. A consultation
of distinguished members of the medical
profession, in and out of the Army, resulted;
in the conclusion that another operation was
not advisable. Exhaustion from the late ex.
treme heat, aggravating. the idistressing _ac-
companiments of the disease, was the im-
mediate cause of his death. The funeral was
held in St. Matthew’s Episcopal Church,
Wilton, Conn., on Friday afternoon of this
week.

Tun Tnnru Savnn Hint—As Mr: J. H.
Ridabock was returning to GreenWich, on
Sunday night, accompanied by Mr. _Swan,
who lives (when he is home) over his way,
he was run into and buggy upset—both men
being thrown out. The covered vehicle 910- ‘
ing the damage, occupied by a young couple,
passed down the road a short distance and
stopped, the sterner one of its occupants
returning to see if the men were hurt or the
carriage damaged. “1 am willing," said he,
“to pay the damage, and I am glad you are
not injured personally." “Well,” said Mr.
Ridabock, as he examined his vehicle as best
he could in the dark, “I don’t care as long
as my horse is not injured, but how came
you to run into us and we gmng you the
whole road ?" “Well, to tell the truth, I had
my arms around the girl and she. was driv-
ing; its all my fault and I am Willing to pay
the damage.". “I won’t charge you a cent
if You tell me who the girl is,” said Mr.
Ridabock. “I won’t tell that,” said the
stranger, “I‘ll pay first.” “You 1985’ 3‘0,"
said the man whose buggy was injured, "I
won’t charge you, anyway, You act like a

words by Rev. Mr. Hart,_and Rev. Mr.

the casket told of death’s irrevocable man-
date, but natural fioWers placed on its lid
relieved the force of its silent eloquence,
speaking as they did of hope and immortali-
ty. That there was nbnndgnt sympathy for
those unexpectedly called to mourn, could
be seen at the grave as the words “ashes to
ashes, dust to dust,” were uttered by Rev.
Mr. Hart. Setting all ejudices, if there
are any, aside, the rem al from ourjmidst

The jury of inquest impnnelled to look
into the causes leading to the death of the
late James Smibert, appeared Thursday p.
in. in Sturges Hall, before his honor J usticc
A’dams, having first visited the rocks Where
deceased received his fatal injuries. Not-
withstanding the mysterious character of the
case, which in any town but this, w Id have
caused very much excitement, re was
little stir in the village, the audience assem-
bled numbering less than twenty. It had
been hinted that a correspondence of the
decease would be introduced, and would
be'likely to clothe the affair in a new light,
but even this prospect failed to affect the
villagers, who pursued the even tenor of
their way as if nothingunusual was at hand.
When ;Mrs. Riley wa's sworn by the court,
the court misunderstanding what she said as
to her desire to testify privately, ordered the
hall cleared. This induced a temporary
flurry, some deeming their rights were thus
enfringed. Outside, then outraged citizens
formed themselves into knots and discussed
the law on the powers of justices of the
peace. They tried the ease themselves
drawing outline maps in the sand of the
sidewalks, showing positively how deceased
approached the rocks, his object for getting
there, and plausible reasons for his falling
down therefrom. Meantime Mrs. Riley
made it clear to the jury that while she had
written three letters to deceased, copies of
which she had, and had received several let-
ters from him, there was nothing in them the
correspondence being several months old,
which could‘in any possible way be connect-
ed with this sad affair, and from the testi-
mony of Capt. Charles and Sereno Allen, and
Miss {Jennie Smibert, the jury were led to
believe'that death was caused by an‘accidental
fall from the ledge. The verdict rendered
was in accordance with that view. After
their discharge the jury expressed themselves
pretty freely as to rumors which had been
current as to foul play theory, and by the
way, scores will continue to entertain that
theory, and expressed themselves almost
unanimously that the death was an accidental
one. Though settled by authority so high,
the end of James Smibert will remain forever
shrouded'in mystery. 3

KILLED BY A xanuxr. or coax.
An autopsy madelby Dr. Ohnesorg a few
days {ago upon the body of a five-years—old
girl of this city, revealed a singular cause of
death. The child had been ailing for about
three weeks with an affection of the throat,
but on the day of her death was around and
seemed to be improving. Soon after retiring
in the evening she was taken violently ill
with a convulsive attack which soon ended
in her death, all medical measures in the
meantime proving of no avail. The case
was so mysterious to the family and the
attending physician that it was decided to
hold a post-mortem examination. This
showed that the source of the trouble was a
kernel of green corn, the point of which had
lodged in the throat just below the larynx.
There was a slight congestion at this place,
but no other evidence of material injury. It
was plain to the doctors, however, that the
kernel had caused death by producing irri—
tation and a spasm of the glottis. resulting in
suffocation. Dr. Olinesorg says he has
knowledge of a case somewhat similar, the
only difference being that the foreign irritat-
ing spbstance was a'wasp instead of a corn

The Atlanta Exposition.
When the international Cotton Exposition .
was first planned and arranged, the idea was
to hold a’ grand cotton exposition for the
benefit of the world, and more especially of
the South. Before the enterprise had gotten
thoroughly under headway, representatives
of other industries asked to be admitted, and
ultimately it was determined to hold one
immense Exposition open to all the world.
An organization was affected under a special
charter, an executive committe was chosen
and Senator Joseph E. Brown was elected
President of the company. By the unani-
ous voice of the executive committee, Hon.
. I. Kimball was made Director General
and accepting the trust he entered at once on
his arduous duties. That Mr. Kimball was
a man well fitted to be the chief executive
of the Exposition few doubted befoi'e and
none doubt now, as he is managing the gi-
gantic enterprise with great good judgment
and extraordinary energy. Commissioners
are at work in all the states of the Union,
also in Canada and Europe. Dr. H. V. M.
Miller, the European commissioner, is meet-
ing with marked success and has promises of
extensive exhibits from foreign manufactu-
rers. That Great Britain and the continental
nations will be fully represented at the Expo-
sition both by capitalists and exhibits is now a
well assured fact, as a considerable area of
space has been bespoken from across the
waters. ' ‘he book of entries show that fifteen
hundred exhibitors have applied for space,
and every day’s mail adds largely to the list.
The park in which the Exposition will be
held embraces over fifty acres most eligibly
and conveniently situated, being about two
miles from the city, and directly on the line
of one of the most important trunk roads
coming into Atlanta. The main exhibition
building will be 720 feet long with a trans-
verse 400 feet and the width of the hall will
be 96 feet. Other buildings for special .ex—
hibits and f9; ‘various uses . are also being
constructed.“ Just outside of the grounds a
hotel with 400 rooms is being put up for
the convenience and comfort of those guests
in attendance upon the Exposition who pre-
fer remaining near the grounds rather than
' to board in the city. Arrangements have
been made with all the railroads of the
United States for the transportation of visi-
tors to the Exposition at reduced rates, and
ample accommodations will be made here for
their entertainment. The old hotels have
been enlarged, new ones are building, and
boarding houses and private residences will
be thrown open for the convenience of those
who will attend the Exposition.
The International Cotton Exposition,which
will be second in importance onlyto the Gen-
tennial, will open October 5th and continue
until the last day of the year. This will be
the grandest opportunity ever offered to the
manufacturers of the United States and
Europe to make exhibits of all kinds of
goods and the machinery used in their manu-
facture. Special attention will be paid to the
exhibition of such natural resources as coal,
iron ' ores, precious metals, clays, and all
other crude materials that by the joint action
of labor and capital can be converted to
many important industries. -
Many of the states of the Union, and es—
pecially those of the South, have remained
in entire ignorance of the immense value of
these natural deposits, and one object of the
Exposition in to bring to light these hidden
treasures, the value 'of which is lncalculable.
Many of the states of the Union have arrang-
their valuable products, both mineral and
vegetable, for this exhibition. .
The miscellaneous departments will .con-
sist of all sorts of wares and merchandise as
well as the various kinds of machinery em—
ployed in their fabrication.
The best and most intelligent citizens of
America will attend the exposition; capital—
ists, - manufacturers, mercha‘s, educators,
inventors, and agriculturists Will be there to
learn from the great show what will advan-
tage them in their respective callings. The
attraction to their minds will not be the mere
spectacle; that of itself would not draw a
thousand visitors outside of Georgia. The
real attraction of the Exposition to these
numberless visitors will be the insight it will
give them into the varied and vast agricultu-
ral, manufacturing and educational possibili-
ties of the Sunny South; Practical consid—
erations will induce them to come to the
Exposition, and if convinced that these
possibilities can be converted into tangible
realities they will invest their capital and
, apply their trained energies in those lines of
development which they especially favor.
The one business of these Southern States is
to make the best possible exhibit of the
abundant natural wealth now lying dormant
in their mountains, valleys and plains. Let
these be set before the throngs of intelligent,
wide-awake people who have the brains to
estimate their value, and the money needed
for their development, and wealth will flow
into the South as never before in her history.

Mnssns. Enrrons :—Tuesday, Aug. 19, ’81,
finds us becalmed of! Oak Bluffs, but headed
for. Newport but yith little prospect of
reaching there at present. Monday the wind
blew so hard and the sea ran so high that we
were obliged to give up Nantucket“ put
about and make Edgartown harbor Where
we have been storm-bound until Thursday
the 18th. Though storm-bound in a little,
old, out-of-the-way place and the elements
against us, the spirits of this jolly party
were not to be dampened, though our clothes
were many times. With the Bluff only six
miles away, accessible by rail and several
’trains a day,‘ our first business naturally was
to find what pleasures this place had in store
for us, which proved to be not a few.‘ With
our letters of introduction to a few acquaint-
ances, and our quartette, we soon made our
way into some very pleasant society, and as
the storm continued we improved all our op-
portunities. The skating rink found us there
each evening—with the beautiful music, the
pretty girls and the skating the time flew by
a thousand times too fast. We leave the
Bluffs with many pleasant memories and
friends, and as I look back a few pictures
present themselves to my view. We are all
old ice skaters and thought we could take to
the rollers as naturally as a fish to water, but
sad was Tom’s mistake when he tried to heel
up. ’Tcm thought'he was an angel until he
came to light, but the cracking of the floor,
the groan he gave, the intense pain, and the
laughter of the crowd brought him to a
vivid realization that his wings were not
large enough for anything more than orna-
ment. Sufiice it to say that Tom jumps up
and' peels off the skates. and is very well
contented to look up gentlemen to skate
with his girl. .
We think our Commodore and Commissary
must be having a remarkably fine time. Oak
Bluffs and its picture store have completely
captivated them as it is almost impossible to
get them away. Some chromos are very
pretty and some people never tire of their
company and beauty. Thursday we again
pulled out oflthe harbor for Nantucket, but
the fog shut down upon us and we were
again obliged to put about and back to Vine-
yard harbor. Some of us took steamer from
the Bluffs for Nantucket and returned this
morning, while others betock themselves
again to‘ the rink. This morning, while
waiting for the wind and fog to lift we visited
the town of Vineyard Haven, and with our
magnificent glee club made glad the hearts of
the villagers. We were very cordially re-
ceived. The church was opened and an
impromptu colicert given to the few who
happened in. The concert consisted of choice
selections sacred and organ music by our able
and accomplished organist, Frank H.
Shepard, of Bethel, and hymns by our club.
It was truly a pleasure long to be remember-
ed. At one o’clock we set sail with just
wind enough to carry us out of the harbor.
The wind has now left us, the day is most
over and the prospect is that We shall put
about, anchor, and possibly spend another
evening at the Bluffs.
Yours Respectfully, Naurlws.
A Lay Sermon.
The following words of reproof and warn-
ing to the young, inspired by the, terrible
tragedy which has agitated New Haven and
all the country, over 6 death of a young
girl of remarkable beauty, and the arrest and
incarceration of two young men of good
family, we clip from the Palladium, under
the and conviction that they are needed righ
here in Norwalk, 'quite as imperatively as at
New Haven: .
“I made the acquaintance of Jennie Cra-
mer one night on the Green,” said one of the
Malley boys in his testimony before the coro-
ner, and this statement reveals the first false
step which, so far as the public knows, led
to the death of the unfortunate girl and to the
trouble, of which the end cannot be foreseen,
for' the young man. Human wisdom can
never forecast the end to which the first false
step may lead young men and maidens. The
recent and tragedy ought to serve as a warn-
ing to this class, and yet the giddy youth of
both sexes still pursue their nightly walks
upon our streets, cutraging all decency and
bringing the blush of shame to the cheeks
even of those who lay no particular claim to
refinement or good breeding. That which is
corrupting and ruinous, and sure to end in
vexation and remorse, if nothing worse, is
carried on- every evening by young men and
women even in the most densely populated
portions of our city. Young women to their
shame be it said, promenade our streets for
no other purpose than to attract the attention
of young men who are silly enough to give
them notice. So, too, young men lie in wait
at the street corners to beguile and entrap
the opposite sex into ways that “take hold
on death.” Young men and maidens, be-
ware how you conduct yourselves, and for-
get not that a good name is better than riches.
You cannot be too circumspect in your
actions, for public opinion is inexorable, and
of those deemed by it but few recover.
Parents, a word with you. Your life is
bound up in the welfare of your children.
Have you not then a mission to perform? Do
not your children need good advice, constant
to guide them and lovingly teach them that
they may shun frivolity and vice and thus
prepare themselves for a useful and happy
ife ? May the young men and women and
the parents of our city heed the lesson which
the recent sad tragedy teaches.

The President’s recent letter to ‘his moth—
er in Hiram, 0., has been published.
“N othing," says :the Hiram correspondent
of the Cleveland Leader, “could have so cf-
.fectually cheered and comforted her as this
evidence of his increasing strength as well
as his thoughtful love for her. She is
at present spending a few weeks in Hiram,
at the home of her niece, Mrs. P. B. Clopp.”
The following is a verbatim copy of the let-
ter :
Wasnmcrou, D. 0., Aug. 11, 1881
Dear Mother : Don’t be disturbed by con-
flicting reports about my condition. It is true
I am still weak and on my back; but I am
gaining every day and need only time and
patience to bring me through.
Give my love to all the relatives and
friends, and especially to sisters Hitty and
Mary. Your loving son.

A young man from the country saw steam
fire engines working at a confiagration upon
his visit to the city, and asked his father,
"What in thunder makes ’em heat the water
by steam to put fire out with 1’ Cold water’s

Little Phil, a bright five-years-old.is afraid
of thunder. During the recent hot spell his
mother would remark, “Oh, I pray for rain.”
One day when she said it Phil thus address-
ed her: “Oh. mamma, I will tell‘ you why it
don’t rain. When I say my prayers, I don
say, ‘Pleasc don’t pay any ’tention to what
mammu says, cos I am ’fraid of thunder.’ ”—

Amendment, Hope.”
Such is the title of a Thanksgiving sermon
by Atticus G. Haygobd, D. D., Presi-
dent of Emory College, Oxford, Ga. preach-
ed before citizens, Nov. 25, 1880, and pub-
lishcd by their unanimous request. Emory
College has been recently endowed, in part,
by the munificent gifts of George I. Seney.
Esq., of New York City. , .
This sermon is the outcome, if not the be—
ginning of Hiew style of preaching in the
South. After giving reasons why the nation
should respond to the President’s Proclama
mation, the author proceeds, “I come now
to mention some reasons why we of the South
should both ‘thank God and take courage.’ ”
Here is one. “For one illustration take the
home—life of our people. There is ten times]I
the comfort there was twenty years ago. This
is seen in better houses, better furniture,
better taste, more luxuries—a great increase
of mattresses, cook stoves, sewing machines.
glass and blinds for windows, lamps,carpets,
parlor organs, pianos, pictures, etc. 2d. The
social and civil order existing in the South.
3d. The restoration of its relations to the
General Government.”
As to the 2d point he says, “Considering
what were the conditions of life in the South
after April. 1865 the socialjand civil order
that exists here is wonderful,” for which he
gives chief credit to the “conservative power
of the Protestant religion.”
As to his third point—“Gratitude for the
restoration of relations to the Federal Gov-
ernmenl"—he says “Possibly some do not go
with me here. Then I must go without
them, but I shall not lack company ; and as
the years pass it will be an ever increasing
throng." And among reasons “Why we
should not be surprised or discouraged be-
cause our section does not . control the gov-
ermneut," he assigns this as one, “the im-
measurable capacity for blundering which
the leaders of the dominant party in our
section have manifested during these years
of political confiict”——“the wild utterances
of a few extreme impracticables who have
never forgotton and have never learned.”
His 4th reason for “profound gratitude to
Almighty God” is “the abolition of slavery.”
“I say what the vast majority of our peop
feel and believe, and on many accounts. T,
For the negrocs themselves,” especially if
constrained “by every token, the whole na-
tion should undertake the problem of their
education.” 2. “Because it is better for the
Whole people of the South—unspeakably
better -for our children and our children's
children." . '
In conclusion he says; “First of all, as .a
people, let us of the South frankly recognize
some of our faults and lacks and try to reform
and improve. Let us endeavor to overcome
our intense provincialism. My hope is that,
in twenty years from now, the words ‘The
South’ shall have only a geographical signifi-
cance.” * * " “Finally let us
cease from politics as a trust and a trade.”
There is very much else in this sermon
equally wise and unusual in that section.

Household Notes.
Srnwan Coma—Scam the corn just enough
to harden; slice off the ear so as to divide
the kernel three or four' times; scrape the
chits (the sweetest part) from the cob, add
sweet milk. a little water, a little butter and
salt; sinmer ten minutes. Beat one egg and
add, stirring in evenly just before taking off
the fire. A very little sugar improves it for
the taste of , most people.
Faint) SQUASE.—A delicious dish can be
made of the summer crook-necked squash
simply by frying them in butter. Slice them
as you would cucumbers, dip in dry fiour,fry
to a brown, and imagine that you are eating
fried oysters.
Conn Fairruns.—One-half teaeup of but-
let, the same of flour, one egg, pepper and
salt; one pint grated corn, beat it up, and'fry
on a well buttered griddle. They are as good
as fried oysters.
A Goon War or Cooxmo ONIONS.—II: is
good plan to boil onions in milk and Water;
it diminishes the strong taste of that vegeta-
ble. It is an excellent way of serving up
onions, to chop them after they are boiled,
and put them in a stewpan with a little milk,
butter, salt and pepper, and let them stew
about fifteen minutes. This gives them a
fine flavor, and they can be served up very
hot.-
LEMON Panama—Put in a basin one-
quartm- pound of flour, same of sugar, same
of bread-crumbs and chopped suet, the juice
of one good-sized 1emon,and the peel grated,
two eggs and enough milk to make it the
consistency of porridge ; boil in a basin for
one hour, serve with or without sauce.
CREAM Commas—One pint cream, two
cups sngar,three eggs, two teaspoonfuls soda,
four teaspoonfuls cream tartar; mix as soft
as possible to roll; nutmeg or cinnamOn;
bake quick.
Pastime ron Luxouaox.--These are made
of eggs, flour and milk. The just propor-
tions are one tnblespoonful of flour to each
egg. To make small pancakes,beat two eggs
thoroughly, and add sweet milk. Then take
two tablespoonfuls of flour, work into a thin
paste and ductile batter by adding the milk
and 'eggs and a little salt. Grease the pan
with a piece of sweet lard or butter, and stir
briskly to prevent adhering to the bottom.
When the under side is suficiently browned,
turn it, Leave the cakes folded, with sugar‘
or honey and butter between the folds or
sugar alone. If this be too solid. add more
eggs and use less flour A slight sprinkle of
grated nutmeg willbt in addition“
Bump Mxoanom.~—Break up as much
macaroni as you desire for your dinner, put
it on to boil in tepid water, so as to allow it
to swell. In twenty-five minutes, if soft to
a fork, drain it through a culiender. Butter
:1 deep dish, place a layer of macaroni, then'
sprinkle over it salt and pepper; cover with
grated bread crumbs and a. little grated
cheese. Fill up the dish in this manner, and
lay bits of butter over the cheese of the top
layer. Bake in shot oven fifteen or twenty
minutes; if left too long in the oven it will
dry up and become tough and unpleasant.

Production.
The Union Investment and
Promoting 00.,
155 and 157 BROADWAY,NEW Yonx.
OFFERS for sale to investors the preferred stock
ofthe Gold Gravel Hydraulic.Uo., or Plumas
and Sierra Counties, California. This property
which has been a largely paying one for the last
eleven years, is a consolidation of placer claims
which have already produced nearly twelve mil-
lions in gold—and which are extensive and rich
enough to produce one hundred millions ore.
The present facilities for gold washing the
property will suffice for an annual net production
of at least 8300,000,whichproduction it is proposed
to largely increase by the construction of new
water work ands the use of additional apparatus
tor exacting the gold. The Union Investment
and Promoting Company, which itself owns the
Common Stock of the Gold Gravel Company,
which is not for sale, guarantees that the pre-
ferred stock which it chars to the public at par,
shall receive 12 per cent. annually before any di-
vidend shall be paid on the common stock—at the
present rate of production, however, the divi-
dends on ,the total capital stock of one million,
should not beless than twenty-five per cent. The
Union Investment and Promoting 00., Is a Con~
necticut Corporation with its chief office in New
York City. Its President is A. F. Wilmarth, the
Vice President 0.18 Home Insurance Company;

dent of the llartford Bank, with others 01 the

It is admitted by all who have any acquaint-
ance with the subject that the placer gold gravel
beds ofCalilornia, afford an entirely sale and con-
servative field for investment if sufiicient water
forh draulic operations is available Prof. Wm.
P. B ake, of New Haven and other experts ofthe
highest character have reported most favorably
upon this property. In answer to the question
likely to be first asked by the cautious N cw Eng-
land investor: "Why, if this is. so good a thing
does this wealthy company Wish to sell any of
the stock”—it may be said that through the. com-
panies’ agents and experts in.0al_iio.rnia, It has
opportunities to use capital in similar invest-
mepts which Will pay the company fifty per cent.
which is amordinary rate of miners interest. It
proposes to continue so long as possible this
profitable use of moncx while giving the public
the advantage of pure using a twenty-five per
