A bill luis been introduced into
tho New York legislature to pro-
i liibit the marriage of girls under
It) andboyB under 18 years old.
As a rule marriage should bo
deferred until the man and wom
an are matured, but early marri
ages are by no means ranked
among the leading sins of socie
ty. Moro even can bo said in
favor of early marriages than can
be said in favor of deferring that
event indefinitely.
The idea that the young -wom
an must wait until the young man
has a competence or a fortune,
and they must begin life with as
much as their father? and mothers
accumulated during their years,
is a groat mistake.
Marry for love and work for
riches is a good motto.]—Chicago

Some days ago, Major Henry
E. Young of Charleston, receiv
ed a letter enclosing a postal
order for five dollars for the
Charleston earthquake sufferers,
from John Brown, Jr., son of the
famous John Brown, who was
hanged some twenty-five years ago
in Virginia, for his attempt to in-
cito the negroes t§ insurrection
against the whites at Harpor’s
Ferry. The writer said his fath
er and all his family had tho kind
est feelings towards the people
of the South, and that it was only
the institution of slavery which
they hated, and that he would
have sent tho money at an earlier
date hut for the faot that he had
to earn it first. He lives at Put
in-Bay, on lake Champlain, New
York.
Major Young replied, that “tho
story of tho widow’s mite had now
become a reality,” and the most
for appropriate uso he could find
for tho money was ‘ ‘a home for wid
ows and orphans of confederate
soldiers” which was located in
Charleston. He also thanks the
donor very sincerely for his con
tribution and still more for the
spirit which prompted it.
Surely the war is over when
such incidents as this become
part of our history.
Another Life Savod.
* About two years ago, a prominent
citizen of Chicago was told by his
physician that he must die. They
said his system was so debilitated that
there was nothing left to build on.
He made up his mind to try a “new
departure.” He’ got some of Dr.
Pierce's “Holden Medical Discovery”
and took it according to directions.
He began to improve at once. He
kept up the treatment for some
months, and is to day a well man.
He savs the “Discovery” saved his
life.

Beecher’s Death.
The Famous Preacher Died on the
8th inst.
Nk\v York, March 8.—Henry Ward
Beecher died this morning at 9 o’clock.
Ho began to sink slowly after mid
night, and the watchers at his bedside
soon saw that the end was hear. Mr.
Beecher passed quietly away while
asleep. He never recovered con
sciousness after paralysis Jstupifled
his mind.
He died in the presenoe of his fami
ly. Present at the bedside were Col.
H. Beecher, his daughters Hattie and
Bessie, And John Henry Ward Beech
er, MisB Edith Beeolier, W. C. Beecher
and wife, Rev. Samuel Soorille* Mrs.
Scoville, eldest daughter of ReV. Hen
ry Ward Beecher; Miss Scoville, who
has just come from the Paolflo slope;
Miss Bullard, Rev. 8. B. Halliday and
wife, Bella, the Scotch nurse, who
has been with the family many years,
and was a special favorite of the de
ceased preacher; the male nurse, Ki-
ordan, Deacon S. V. White, E. A. Sec-
comb, one of the trustees or Plymouth
Church, and Major J. B. Pond. In
accordance with the wish of Mr.
Beecher no crape was found on the
door, but, instead, a wreath of beauti
ful flowers hung over the bell knob.
The funeral will take plaoe Thurs-
... r day, and the services will bo held at
J W Hull (Wpiik.h1 i in i . s ^ tt ^ e . °[ i the house at 0;8O on Thursday, and at
on the 11(1 n il i nia. bo , U,Kle(1 I tho church at 11:20. It is the wish of
on the north bj J. H. Pully, deoeas-1 tho fftmjly thnfc the ftme ml be as
quiet as possible.
This bulletine lias been issued: 'The
services at the House will be confined
absolutely to relatives, without any
exception, it being manifest that any
selection outside the circle would be
impossible, the house being too small
to hold even a small portion of his
nearest friends.
Th^interment will be In Greenwood
cemetery. In accordance with an
agreement made years ago between
Mr. Beecher and Dr. Hall|that who
ever died first t he other should officiate
at. the funeral, Dr. C. C. Hall will per
form the ceremony.
Dr. Hearle has prepared the follow
ing statement: “Mr. Beecher failed
decidedly after 8 a. m. His breath
was more labored and slow, and his
pulse, gradually grew weaker, The
1 family was aroused about 4, and all
I gathered around his bedside. It soon

Sketch of the Great Preacher’s Life.
Rev. Henry Ward Beecher was 74
years of age, having been born in
1813, and was the most famous preach
er in this country, and, perhaps, in
the world. For a quarter of century
he led the religious thought among
Protestants, and was regarded as
without a peer as a pulpit orator.—
He was born in Litchfield, Conn., and
was griulnated from Amherst College,
Massachusetts, and the Lane Theo
logical Seminary, Cincinnati. His
fattier, Lyman, was ft great preacher,
and ids brothers and sister have made
their marks in the world. His sister,
Harriet Beecher Stowe, is tlie author
of “Uncle Tom’s Cabin.” Soon after
he graduated lie became pastor of a
little church in Indianapolis, whore
lie remained for ten years, lie then
removed to Brooklyn in 1847 and be-

trial, and was followed closely In all
parts of this country anti in England.
The jury stood nine to three for ac
quittal, and public sentiment virtual
ly conceded that to bo a verdict in
his favor. It is doubtful if any oth-
or preacher could have lived down
sucli a scandal us that was. That he
retained iiis pulpit, and was almost as
popular after as before the trial,
showed the remarkable strength of
character of the man. He inode

His free-handed way of doing things

OUR WEALTHY KEN.
Much has been said in newspapers
of men who have made large fortunes
in comparatively a few years in va
rious business industries. Many of
these articles are written by corres
pondents of prominent newspapers,
and copied into others of lessi^r note.
Correspondents generally are seldom
men of business qualifications and
wrongfully picture these men and
their business as a thing of accident:
this is not the case with those we
have met. We find that where men
have made large fortunes by their
own business talent and industry
they chose with sagacity and fore
thought such businesses as would
lead to success when handled with
business judgment. No man has been
brought before the public as an ex
ample of success, both in wealth and
magnitude of his business ("outside of
stock and railroad men) more promi
nently than Dr. G. G. Green of Wood
bury, N. J. He is at the head of
many lorge business industries, and
yet comparatively a young man.
When the fact that August Flower,
for dyspepsia anil liver complaint and
Boschee’s German Byrtip, for coughs
and lung troubles, has grown to a
wonderful sale in all parts of the-
world, it proves that it was not an ac
cident. or spontaneous strike at
wealth. His medicines are recogniz
ed as valuable and established reme
dies and the business lias grown grad
ually and permanently during the
last eighteen years on account not
alone of Dr. Green’s abilities as a bus
iness man or his “good luck,” but on
the actual merits of the two prepara
tions.—Copied from the N. Y. Weekly
Sun, of Dec. 22, 188fl.

congregations were among the larg

have generally been printed, have
had a wide influence at home and
abroad. His manner was impressive
and his sense of humor keen. He
early took a prominent stand against
