Rev. Dr. Alexander Clark, of Pittsburg,
editor of the MdhodxH Jltcordcr of that city,
died at tho residence of Governor Colquitt,
In Atlanta, Ga., on Saturday evening, after
are illness of about threo weeks. Dr. Clark
was a great worker. In addllionto his cdi"
torial labors he contributed to several relig
ious weeklies, and was also author of several
religious hooks, which had-a largo circula
tion. Alanson Work, famous among tho early
abolitionists of the country, died in Hartford,
Conn., Sunday,, aged 60 years. In 1835 he
moved from Connecticut to riymouth, III.,
and subsequently went to tho Mission Inst!
tuto, near Qulncy, where, with James K.
Burr find George Thomson, two theological
students, he engaged in an attempt to liber
ate slaves in Missouri by getting them over
the? fiver on to free soil. Through treachery
this scheme was disclosed while the three
men were on Missouri territory, and they
were surrounded by an armed band of slave
holders and conveyed to the jail in Palmyra.
Three months later they were tried, convict'
ed and sentenced to twelve years' imprison
ment in the penitentiary. It is said that
armed men wore outside the court room
ready to haufr. them in caso they wero not
convicted. In the prison In Jefferson city
their accommodations were scant and their
food was poor, and' they wero forced to cat
tfith their fingers. After serving over 31
years, Work was pardoned by Gov. Edwards
"on the express condition that ho returned
to Connecticut, his former residence, ami
settled himself there." Tho condition was
not known to Work till after his release.
Burr was kept in prison i years,and Thom
son nearly five yeais. Mr. Work has lived
quietly in Hartford' for nearly thirty years,
very few persons of tho present generation
knowing anything concerning this chief
event of bis- life. IIo had nine children.
Ono of his sons is-Henry C- Work, tho well
known rmnlcal author and composer.

Darn's Kearney is ambitious to be United
Stales Senator from California, and at the
rato at which political affairs arc degenerat
ing thcro his ambition docs not seem a bold
one.
I.co Miller, a Greenback talker, said
last week in a speech in Lcwiston, Me..- "It
is a great wrong to stamp ono dollar on a
piece of coin that is wortli cighly-four cents,
when it can just as easily be stamped on a
piece of paper wortli nothing."
A Maine letter to tho Boston Journal
Bays: "It is freely admitted by dcmocrals
that if Governor Garcclon is nominated he
will not gel over twelve thousand or fifteen
t'mnls.-rud votes. It is nil open secret that if
the Greenback-Democratic combination car
ries tho Legislature it has agreed to drop
Garcclon and inako Smith Governor.'
Tho Charleston (S. C.) "Sows" (Dem.)
referring again to llio Army bill, says: "We
do not know ofasiuglo instance in South
Carolina where tho presence of United States
troops at tho polls has prevented any Demo
crat from voting. Wo know of hundreds of
instances where, in tho absenco of United
States troops, colored Democrats dared not
vole as they desired."
Mr. Wattereou's editorial expletives for
Mr. Conkling, in connection with tho lato
bout with Mr. Lumar, are characteristically
liberal and definite. Tlio Senator from
New York Is "a horso jockeyy "a butcher,
an oratorical vender of wart cures," "a poor
coward," "a swaggerer" and "is aa corrupt
a hound as ever eat in Congress, for thcro
are donna of people who- havo moro than
reason to suspect that ho was willing to sell
Himself to tho DcmosiaU tr a prico in
'76-T." Mr. Lamar, on the other hand, is
"of sweet, gentle, womanly nature," " a
dreamer and a poet," and finally "a states
man and- philosopher,"
Tho Fayette. (Iowa) Union was an out-and-out
Democratic party organ. Tho edit
or went on a trip to Manitoba,- leaving tho
newspaper In charge of a friend. Tlio next
number of tho Union was Republican
throughout, and the following explanatory
paragraph was inserted: "We were request
ed by the editor of tho t'm'ou to conduct its
columns in a proper manner, and wo have
conscientiously endeavored to do so."
The fact is, saya tho Springfield (Mass,)
Republican, tho movement to make Grant
President, which Bone and Chllds and all
of Grant's old cronies are working up with!
all their might and cunning, is a great big
transparent fraud. Wo don't want Grant
again, any more than Franco wants a Na
poleon dynasty. And we need to shake off
all the Grant worshippers the whole Rorie

and we are doing it.
Secretary Sherman will leave Washing

make several stump speeches. He may also
before his return, address the Boston Board
of Trade. A special correspondent of the

who Is on a visit to Washington, has "frank

To the already long list of aspirants for
the Republican nomination for State Treas
