Few women were more widely known and none more highly re spected and beloved. Her life has been a remarkable one. She was born in Lebanon. Grafton ca, N. H.. and moved to Broome county, N.

Mr. Haekett cut away a spot in the vast wilderness and reared his log house in the midst of a fine plain on which now st.-.nds a considerable portion of the village of Lewtsvifle. He had not more than two or three neighbors within a day's Journey. The nearest grist mill was at Lawreneeville. Tioga county. Fa.

Nearly all the first settlers, as they sougiit a home in the new count ry, stopped f- T a night at least, and her hos pitably. and for years her house was a chosen gathering-place for young and old. Middle-aged men still gratefully remember how. as boys they usedtogather from the clearings that dotted the forest around to sjseud the evenings with her, and with motherly kindness this i- ir ge hearted woman welcomed them to her home and her bountiful table. She possessed a large share of that ski i in Lie use of medicinal roots and herbs which seems al most inn-hive in some people, and for many years it served her family and neighbors instead ( of the more learned and costly practice which physics and bleeds in accordance with scientific principles by virtue <>f authority contained iu La , tin stamped upon siieep skin. Her funeral was also a somewhat remarkable ; one. Kev. Tracy Scott, himself an old citizen far beyond three-score and ten. pronounced the fu neral discourse. About fifty persons sat in the mourneis' seats, scarcely one more distantly re lated to the deceased tha-i grand-child. Ten children she had reared to man and womanhood and all were permitted to mingle their tea r% over the form of the dear departed. Five stalwart sons, all now in the decline of iife, followed her to her last resting-place, fine had but just ar rived on a long expected visit from the far west, fortunately in time to lie recognized and welcom ed by the Lst failing faculties of the aged, moth er and to receive on his bowed and stricken head her last blessing. Four daughters came to > weep and condole with their sister whose atTc-c --tiouate arms had been the stay and support of ! of their mother during many of the last years of . her life. Two sisters of the deceased, themselves nearly four-score, bowed their heads among tiie bereaved children. One had come hundreds of miles iu time to clasp the beloved elder -isier In her arms before she passed over the river. As these two aged women sat among the large circle of mourners, bowed more with grief than years, 1 . their healthful and benevolent faces showed that they were worthy sisters of her they mourned: that they, too, had led quiet and orderly lives in i all godliness and honesty. No doubt, as they turned their faces toward the fa r land to which their sister had gone, they fancied they heard the welcoming voice as it pronounced the words, ; ■'tVell done, good and faithful servant"; andcer- j taiuly, could she have unclosed her ears to the voices of those who had know n her so long, echo ing back the words "Well.done."

The Line between New York. Qut-enstown and Liverjaiol isconiixised of the most celebrated steamers in the world and their average time is not far fjomabout nine days. Theacconimi la tion for steerage passengers is of the ' b -st character, t->mprisiiig many com forts and conveniences not to be found , on other ships. P.tssengers to and from Bristol, Cardiff.

London Line is composed of the older J vessels and offers very good accwumoda tion to and from the south of England and Continent of Euroj>e, but the steam ers are not so fast as the Queenstown & Liverpool Line.
