The tears of sorrow are falling from the
' Nation’s weeping eyes,
The broken heart of the Nation sends forth
its mournful sighs.
Ah! Well {nay we‘sorrow for our leader
manly and great .
Whose trusted hand no longer guide the helm
of State.
Well may we grive with that saintly mother.
whose loyal son
Ran life's race so grandly,and now a Victor's
crown hath won;
Well may we mourn with the stricken widow,
who as a loving wife
Sharedthe sunshine and shadow of her hus-
band’s noble life. ,
With the fatherless children let us mingle a
sorrowing tear;
Their father's sacrifice for as c
too dear.
O, Godl in times past, Thy mercy has pre-
vailed, .
Thy purpose for good never yet has failed.
But the shaft strikes home, and our hearts
are rent -
By the and blow which Thy Providence sent.
Oh, guide us, sustain us in these sorrowing
days,
And teach to trust, to trust in Thy mysterious
ways.
Hereafter Fame, upon her scroll and History’s

Shall write of our martyr President, futuri—

Saturday, Mr. James R. .Jessup and “8d”

they had good luck off Seymour’s Rock,—a
spot not favorably thought of by average

The case of S. G. Taylor es. George H.
Nash, for trespass, Olmstead of Stamford,
for plaintiff, Wm. Randal Smith of Norwalk,
for defendant, was tried last week before-
Judge Hall of the Common Pleas and a jury.
By the testimony of witnesses it appeared
that defendant ploughed so deeply in front
of plaintiff's premises that plaintiff could
not go in or out of a barway leading to his
property, and further, that defendant remov-
ed the earth thus ploughed tO a point so far
distant that plaintiff could not, without diffi-
culty and expense, bring it back again. Do-
fendant brought to show that in the prmecu-
tion of his duty as highway surveyor it was
necessary to excavate in the manner aforesaid.
The jury took a different view, and brought
in a verdict for plaintiff.

A narrow sidewalk is an abomination. It
excites the risibles Of pedestrians. The citi-
zen who planned the walk on our village
bridge has long since gone knee, his end
being hastened, it is said, by the part he took
in its construction. People,oflener than other:
wise, go in pairs, and when two.pairs meet
on that sidewalk, one pair must give way to
the other by stepping into the mud and dust
of the street. While the right of way on
bridge walks is equal in the eye of the law,
there are those, who by their size or good
looks assume it belongs to them, and every
hour in the day witnesses somebody growling.
It being evident that the public can never
be educated to keep to the right on walks,
our only redress, after finding fault with the
projector, who, though deceased, yet speak-
eth, is to solicit the effort of some devoted
man with plenty of time at his disposal who
will strive to correct the left-handed tenden-
cies of those unconscionable people who de-
cline to keep to the right as nature and law
directs, and persist in holding to the other
side against the general tide of travel. The
Boston Journal says: “It might be unwise,
perhaps, to recall two or three missionaries
from heathen lands to labor with the afore-
said barbarians, but some one should take
hold of the work of their conversion, and
the public would look upon the men engaged
in that duty as endowed with a large share
of consecration.”

Pour Ausrm, MICIL, Sept. 15, 1881. ,
Mr DEAR Faun—I can give you a but faint-
idea of the great tempest of fire that has, I
wrought so serious a destruction of life and
property in our immediate vicinity. i,
For about six weeks past we have had a
remarkable drought here. During that peri-
od have had very little rain—hardly enough
to lay the dust in the roads, with prevailing
winds from the west and southwest, which
were very drying. The farmers throughout
the country have been industriously firing
their log heaps and applying the torch to the
vast windfalls, so that the fires were very
generally distributed through nearly all the
old timber in the county. Fer two or three
weeks prior to Sept. 5th, when the first great
fires began their devastating work, the whole
county was enveloped with a dense smoke
that often obscured the brilliancy of the sun,
and brought to our remembrance the terrible
fires of 1871. No great apprehensions were
held that we were to have a recurrence of
the great fires of 1871, for we were daily ex.
peeling rain and the meadows and rcadsides
were still green, not like they were in Octo-
ber, 1871, when all the vegetation was ap-
parently dried up and dead. But the intensoi
heat of the sun added to the'heat of the
burning woods, seemed to set the whole at-
mosphere in a violent commotion, and a bar. ~
ricano of wind fanned the embers of the
forests into i tempest of fire, wind and dust
which swept with the velocity of a race
horse from the south west to the northwest
over some thirty-two townships, embracing
an area of about 1,100 square miles. In
some townships at midday, the darkness was
so intense that objects were not-visible a rod
distant. Adistant rumbling like an earth-
quake, accompanied with tho meaning of the
forest trees spread terror and dread of some
great disaster to the unfortunate inhabitants
surrounded as they were by the intense dark-
ness that was more terrible because'it occur.
red in the day time, while the sun was still
high in the heavens.
The first great fire. that we heard of was
the destruction of the towns of Bad A x and'
Verona and partial loss of Pt Hope and the
total destruction of Huron City, Ight miles
east of us, where Langdon Hubbard lives.
We fought the fires here about twenty.
four hours, and passed one night that for
two or three hours from midnight to three
o'clock were fraught with terror and con-
sternation to all the people of the village of
Port Austin, but we came ofi.conquerers
without the loss of a single building.
1 will not, however, weary you with de-
tails, for these you may glean from the pa-
pers. These fires have ravaged a large
part of Huron and Saranac counties.
Have destroyed in these two counties so far
as ascertained about 300 human lives. The
ibss of human life will probably be much
greater When the full returns are in. Here
are rendered homeless about 10,000 of its
inhabitants and swept out of existence at
least a million dollars‘ worth Of property,
a greater part of which belonged to thepoor
farmers n the new country.
The énorons and benevolent citizens of
this State as well as other states are nobly
coming to the rescue of this bereaved country
and people, and it is expected that before
winter sets in their most pressing wants will
be met and they will be made comparatively
comfortable. .} ‘
At a public meeting here we raised $1,000
to relieve the suflerers in our immediate
vicinity. The Central Relief Committee of
Detroit have thus far received about $28,000
cash subscriptions, and the work of relieving
the wants of this stricken country is. nobly
advancing. .
This is an occasion that appeals to the
benevolent and generous people of the whole
country, and I believe that the appeal will be
generously answered.
If any of your citizens desire to contribute
to relieve the want and suflerings of the sf.
fiieted here, send to my care and I will see
to it that it is properly applied and so as to.
do the most good. Affectionately yours”

Adisastrous fire occurred at Wheeler &

the room used for Japanuing and was caused
by a lamp that was set too near a can at tur-

a large quantity of work that was nearly
cBmpleted was destroyed. The loss will
amount to nearly $10,000. Assoon as the
fire was put out a force of men was set to
work cleaning up the ruins, and the damaged
portion of the building will be immediately
rebuilt. .

over the railroad tracks near the foot of
Wall street. Much was knocked from the

His forehead evidently struck the bridge or

was crushed at the shoulder beneath the car

the same cause this season. Lynch belongs
