» Dr. Pierce's Ninetieth IMrtlulny.
A Macon correspondent writes: On
yesterday, the 24th inst., there was a din
ner given at the home of Bishop Pierce,
near Sparta, Georgia, cortaiuly worthy of
mention. It was strictly a family reunion,
bnt a gentleman not a relative, from Ma
con, was invited, and attended. Tho oc
casion waa the 00th birthday of tho imme
diate parent of the fumiiy, Dr. L Pierce.
Twenty-five persons sat down to tho
table besides the Maoou representative.
There wore four generations present,
including ohildren, graud-childreu and
great-graud-cbildren. It waa a happy
night rarely ever witnessed, and the grodt
bishop and his fathor must have set it
down as an epoch oven in their eventful
lives.

A Heroic Nashville PrleNt.
The New York Catholic Ilevietc says :
"The llomainc Rcligieuxe iuforuis us that
(he Catholic priest who behaved so gal
lantly on the ill-fated Villa dit Havre was
Father Simon, of Nashville;. He was
horn at Sommercourt, France, and loft
his country for America whilo quito a
young man. His untimely death, terrible
as it was, was a most noble one, anti a
Protestant lady who lost her only daugh
ter in tho catastrophe said of him: T
never saw a braver man or a bottor Chris
tian. Ho did us all much good by his
prayers. His voice was tho last wo hoard
ns the ship wont down. Ho was eryiug
out in a loud tone tho words of tho Abso
lution.’ ”
—The Kaleigh Ncm thinks tho earth
quake on Bald Mountain has boon pro
lo no publico. It says: It has caused fifty-
five conversions to religion, broken up
twenty-seven illicit whiskey distilleries,
drove from the country two sub-revenue
officials, rid tho mountains of a sorry
preacher, and furnished us sovora) col-
umns of reading matter. On the other
hand, the damage is slight, for had it
broken up all the crockery in the moun
tains, the loss would not have been £10,
while Mrs. Nannie’s chimney would have
tumbled with tbo first strong wind.
Arbitration Between Nations.—Tho
following is one item of Mr. tiumnors
will:
9. I bequeath to tbo President and Fol
Iowa of Harvard College one thousand
dollars in trust for an annual prizo for the
best dissertation by any student of tho
collego or any of its Schools, undergrad
uate or graduate, on universal peaco and
the methods by which war may bo perma
nently suspended. I do this in the hope
of drawing the attention of students to
the practicability of organizing peace
among nations, which I sincerely believe
tuny be doue. I cannot doubt that tho
sauie modes of decision which now pre
vail between individuals, between towns,
and between smaller communities, may
be extended lo nations.
Death of a Davoiiter of the Late
Senator Benton.—Madam GauldrinBoi-
leau, the wife of Baron Boileatt of Paris,
daughter of the late Senator Thomas II,
Benton, and sister of Mrs. Gen. Freni out,
died in Paris on the 10th instant. Her
husband wus recently Bonteucod to prison
for three years for participation iu the
Memphis and £1 Paso Kail toad affair, iu
which General Fremont was engaged, and
her death is attributed to the anxiety and
mortification resulting from her hus
band’s troubles. She leaves sir small
children.
—The Baltimore Gazette puts tho ad
vertising question thus strongly, and 1
commend what it s tys to our rcudors
being true in every respect: “Iu this i
lightened day and generation it would be
a work of supererogation to attempt to
prove the inestimable value of advertis
ing. Its immense advantages to business
men of every description are so positive
and decided that no argument is required
to impress them upon tho community.
While vast fortunos have boeu made by
judicious advertising, it is known that
tunny who might lmvo become rich
trade have failed to do so, because they
did not seize the golden opportunity, aud
nuke the public thoroughly acquainted
with the place and manner in which their
business wus transacted."
—The growth of Texas may bo under
stood by reference to tho vote polled a
few months ago. The entire voto of the
State was 158,000, indicative of a popula
tion of 1,050,000. In 1800 tho popula
tion was hut 004,000, and in 1870 it num
bered 818,000. An increase of nearly a
quarter of a million in less than throe
years is absolutely wonderful. The best
blood and energy of tho Huiith are con
centrating on her magnifioouL plains, and
it is there that New Orlesus should look
for patronage.—N. O. Picayune.
—The House Committee ou Territories,
by a voto of six to one, have agreed to
recoiuineud the passage of a bill for tho
admission of New Mexico as a Btato iu tho
Union.
—Arthur Orton, the Tichborne “claim
ant," on being weighed at Newgate, in
