WILLI.V5I 31. TWEED
Died nt noon Friday, tlio 12th instant, ageil
55 years, in the Ludlow- Street Jail, New
York city, from a comjilieat ion of diseases of
tlio lieart nnd kidneys, aggravated by pneu
monia, tho result of n. cold contracted nlout
n week ngo, Tweed was horn in tlio city of
New York April 3, 1S23. IDs father was a
chair-maker on n small Boalc, nnd the son,
after receiving a very moderato common
school education, was put to work in his
father's shop. Ho was a poor workman,
and soon left tho shop nnd became a clerk
in a saddlery nnd hardwnro establishment.
After several years, nnd many changes of
wilioti, he and his brother, Richard
Twccil, jr., went into partnership and car
ried on tho chair-making business Jsueoess
fully. 3o soon began to be nctivo in poli
tics, and joined the Americus Kngino Com
pany No. 0, in tlio old New York Volunteer
Firo Department, It was thus ho obtained
his well-known soubriquet of " Rig Six."
In 1851 ho was elected Alderman from
tho Seventh Ward, serving for two terms.
IIo was elected to tho Thirty-third Congress,
and served one term, from 1853 to 1855.
In 185" he was a member of tho New York
Slnto Board of Education, and in 1858 a
Supervisor of New York county. In 1801
ho ran for Sheriff, but ho was defeated. In
1803 ho was appointed by Street Commis
sioner Cornell Deputy Commissioner. In
I SO i he was elected Stato Senator, claiming
a majority of 10,000 voles in his district.
Ho had early joined the Tammany Society,
and, when John T. Jloflmnn becamo Gov
ernor of New York, Tweed succeeded him
as Sachem of Tammany, a position which
gavo him enormous political influence, and
power. In July, 1871, tho New York
Timet commenced tho cxposuro of tho cor
ruption and dishonesty existing in tho New
York municipal government, by means of
which millions of dollars had been fctnlen
from tho city, nnd on October 27, 1871,
Tweed was first arrested and compelled to
find ifl,000,000 bail lo answer n civil suit
for the recovery of tho stolen public funds.
On December 15 of the same year ho was
;ain arrested on a criminal charge of
felony, and it was not until January 0,1 872,
that ho succeeded in giving tho additional
bail in $1,000,000 required. After many
lays nnd much legal mnnoiiivcriiig,
Tweed was, on November 19, 1873, convict
ed on 201 counts of the indictment against
him, nnd on tho 22d Judge Nuah Davis, jr.,
sentenced him to 13 years in tlio jicniten
tiary aud to pay a lino of over twelve thou
sand dollars.
After lighting through all tho courts up
to tho Court of Apjieals, the highest tribunal
of tlio State, n decision was tendered in that
court in March, 1875, by which Tweed was
st nt liberty. Ho wn, however, immedi
ately rearrested in tho civil suit for six mil-
ion dollars, nnd committed to Ludlow
Street Jail.
On December 4, 1875, ho escaped from
tho warden of tho jail, nnd was recaptured
at Vigo, in Spain, in September, 187(1, and
by tho courtoiy of tho Spanish government
sun-endcred to tho ollicers of the U. S.
frigate Franklin, who brought him to this
oimtry nnd delivered him to the Sheriff of
New York, Ho was returned to his old
piartcrs, in Ludlow Street Jail, where ho
:ias remained over since. His recent efforts
lo secure his liberty by confessing his part
u tho huge frauds and surrendering his
proierty nro fresh in tho public memory,
laving occupied a largo liortion of Iho space
in tho newspapers of New York nnd else
where for tho past two years.

l'as on lost among the crowd,
Time shall not restore theo
A loving heart that, lowly bowed,
No longer bends beforo thee,
A goal to win, a thread to weave
Ah I when my soul hath won it,
No sigh nor tear shall ever leavo
A stain of llmo upon it.

That shines for orbs sitieriiul ;
For every rose-leaf on the brink

Turn on a brighter day.

And sadder hearts shall wait)

LGYE AND DUTY.
"You havo grown pale nnd thin since last
wo met. For my sake, Fanny, if not for
your own you should lako better caro of
yourself?"
Fred Folliott had met Fanny Harrington
faco to face.
At first sho had colored, and mado as
sho would avoid him.
Hut tlio encounter was inevitable, and tho
deep pink that overspread her cheek as her
timid eyes met his, betokened that the meet
ing was not altogether disagreeable
Fanny Harrington was dressed in a su
of much-worn brown debage, guiltless of
trimmings, and mado up after tho scantici
of fashions but sho needed not tho oxtcrnal
adjuncts of dress lo set off tho rare, delicate,
loveliness of her faco and form.
She was tall and pale, with a transparent
complexion, faintly colored with rose, bluo
eyes, deep and soft as velvet, and dewy
crimson lip, whilo her luxuriant brown
hair, waved in ripples of Nature's only
crimping, was worn in a heavy coroncl
around the top of her head.
"Am I pale?" sho said hesitating. "Not
more so than usual, I think. Hut then tho
weather is so warm, and the atmosphere op
pressive."
Mr. Folliot had turned and was walking
witli licr now.
Sho glanced doubtfully up nt him.
" Do not let mo tako you out of your way
t red," she said.
"My way isyour's, Fanny; unless," and
he looked keenly into her eyes, "you woul,
prefer to be rid of my company."
"Fred, that is hardly justl"
" But you are tho strangest girl, Fanny I"
ho cried impulsively! "I can't mako vou
out all. Sometimes I think you don't want
my companionship."
Fanny bit her lips.
" I can't help your thoughts, Fred."
" You lovo me."
" You know that I do, Fred," sho answer
ed piteouly.
" Then why will you not become my wife
ntonco? Why will you toil on, wearing
your life away nt that sewing inachiiio,whcn
I stand ready and anxious at any moment
to givo you a homo nnd work for us both ?
I havo asked you the question many times
before,Fiimiy,I ask it now for tho last time."
"I cannot marry you Trcd!" uttered
Fanny Harrington with a paling check and
faltering voice.
"But why not? You confess that you lovo
me."
" If wo could always follow tho leadings of
our hearts " Fanny began.
And then sho stopjK-d.
" No, Fred It is better that wo should part
at once. I havo no right to ask you lo wear
out your life anil youth In awaiting my pos
sible future. Your lovo lias been a bright
sjiot in my clouded existence, and I thank
you for it."
" Your words are a riddle, Fanny."
"My life is a riddle," she retorted iniia
tiently. "And Iho key is in God's hands.
Now, gooil-byo Fred I"
" Forever Fanny ?"
" Yes, forever."
" Funny," he cried, passionately, "you
know that it cannot bo so. You know that
I cau no moro help loving you than tlio sun
can help shining. You may scorn mo and
fling mo away, if you choose, but I shall bo
your faithful slavo still."
Sho stood looking sadly at him.
" Heaven bless you for thoso words, Fred.
But you must go no further with mo now."
" May I not go homo with you?"
" No."
"Why not?"
An expression of pain came over lier coun
tenance. " Fred you must not question me. You
must only trust."
Ho turned away oMiont to her words.
But as lie walked slowly, loosing himself,
as it were, in tho great current of humanity,
a tanglo of perplexed meditation flitted
through his brain.
"1 don't understand lier atoll," ho mut
tered, If I did not know that sho was puro
nnd true ns tin angel, I should think that
somo evil was nt tho root of this slrungo do
lay aud mystery I As it Is well, I don't
know what to believe ! Of one thing I nin
quito certain life without Fanny would bo
life not worth having."
Tlint night a nolo came to Folliett's house,
having theso words
"Wo must part forever; don't try to sco
mo again don't try to alter my resolve, for
It would cost us both needless pain, lielicvo
mo I havo acted for tho best, Fassmk."
" But I will try to niter her resolve, and
I'll alter it, too," Follictt muttered to him
self, "or I'll know tho reason why."
Ho was descending tho stops of (ho front
door when Charlie Hydc,an intimate friend,
came hurriedly in the opposito direction.
" Follictt, I wanted to speak to you."
" But I nm in a hurry 1"
" So am I Folliet, I have heard bnd news
very nearly concerning yourself and an
other who is very dear to you."
"Not Fanny 1"
"Yes, Fanny. Bo a man, Follictt, nnd
cast her oil'. She is unworthy of you. Sho
is an inebriate."
" Impossible I"
" My sister-in-law has a friend who occu
pies tho next room to her In Mrs. Digwall's
house, in C street, and sho saw her stag
gering homo at midnight last night; sho
heard the noise and comments of the house.
Sho soys, moreover, that it is a common oc
currence!" "Great heaven!"
Folliet stood palo and stricken, as if somo
mortal blow had descended upon his heart.
This, then, explained tho nolo now lying
in his pocket.
Fannie, had known that they could never,
never bo moro to ono another than they now
were.
Fannio's eye had lienelratcd further than
his own could do. Tanny was an inebriate.
Ho turned back again, sick at heart, re
jecting tho proffered consolation of his
friends. Solitude alono could comfort him.
The next morning ho left tho cit v to try and
fight tho battle of his heart in tho silenco of
nature, but it was in vain. A week after
wards ho returned.
" I would marry her if sho was a common
Irunltard," ho told himself. " I will try anil
redeem her and if that were impossible, I
would givo my life to lier, to shield her im
perfections from tho public eyo. Tor sho is
mine mine only, and foicvcr."
ith lids obstinate determination in his
heart, ho went straight to tho house, which
was tho only homo poor Fanny Harrington
knew.
"Is it Miss Harrington you want?" said
tho maid. " She's in trouble."
"In trouble?"
" It's her mother, sir. Just buried," said
tho girl, lowering her voice to a whisjier.
Ho mother I I never kuvw sho had a
mother here."
No, nor any ono else," said Peggy, de
lighted with the new auditor to the nino
days' wonder at tho house. " It was a step
mother sho was. Sho kept her at a placo in
tho country, till just of late, and when 6ho
got so bad that thpy wouldn't keep her, jwor
Miss Fanny had her here."
"Sho wn3 my father's wife," says Mis3
Fanny, " and I must tako caro of her."
" But no ono knew but mo nnd Mrs. Dig-
wall what a trial Miss Fanny had of il try-
ng to keep it from tlio rest, working all day
and watching tho poor drunken creature all
night. Sho got out onco or twice, nnd a
pretty uoiso eIio made ; but sho's dead nnd
gone now, and Miss Fanny will get lier re
ward for all sho has dono for tho ioor soul
that hail no friends but her in all the wido
world."
As Peggy ceased her revelations, the door
beyond opened, nnd Funny Harrington,
ressed in plain but deep mourning, stood
beforo her lover.
" Fanny I" was nil ho said.
And sho camo forward with wistful eves
and lips npart:
" You know all, Fred ?"
" I know it all, dearest. Tho obstacle is
gone you will bo initio now?"
"I could not marry you, Fred, with that
chargo burdening my life. I could not weigh
own a second existence with tho blight of
my own. I had to chooso between lovo and
duty, and chooso tho bitterest lot, because I
are not cast her off tho resiionsibilitv Gal
had laid upon inc. Oh, the bittcrncssof that
hour when I wroto lo you that wo must
part!"
It's over now, darling," Folliet whtsticr-
cd, soflly. " And I shall not lovo inv wifo
10 loss because she lias wrought out tho
problem of duty I"
And l'a liny secret, asleep in tho grave,
