OUU KEUULHU COBKESPONIJKNCE.
" Our beloved mesident is dead." These
were the words communicated te our citi
zens litte last nijht or rather early this
morning, words which were as surprising
as they were sorrowful. It is haid te
realize their truth ; hut, alas ! such is the
case. The intelligence- has seemed te
strike our citizens powerless. Pale face?
and eyes that leek as though their owners
had been crying, arc te be seen en every
hand. President Garfield's death has long
been expected, but one and all were un
prepared for the sudden announcement of
last night's bulletin. Our town this morn
ing presents a scene of quietness and sor
row, such as has net been witnessed for
many a leug day. Numerous places of
business, public institutions and many
private residences are draped in heavy
mourning. Ne business houses have
as yet been closed. Seme very
aflcctinir scenes wcic witnessed en our
streets, when persons were inform
ed of President Garfield's death. One
man, v. hen told about it, lowered his head
and exclaimed, ' Oh my Ged, can this
be tine ! ' lie then biekc down atid .sob
bed like a child. Many who steed around
him had tears brought te their ejes by
his deep soirew. An old lady who
has been attending market for fif
teen years, upon hearing the sad
tidings, fainted dead away, and
upon her iccevcry her liist works weic,
" Almighty Ged have and help his afllict
cd family and keep a guardian eye upon
eurstiickcn nation." She could net be
comforted but kepi meaning as though her
. heai t would bleak. It is indeed a sad
day for the United States, and notwith
standing the prayers for the recovery of
the president lie has been taken from us.
IMarliCt rrlces.
A short time age we published an article
en the high prices farmers asked for their
produce. Yesterday in conversation with
Majer Yecuin, of the Spy, we were in
formed of some things which may have
, benefited our citizens. There are certain
farmers who attend our market invariably
ask five cents a pound mero for butter,
and two or three cents a dozen mere for
'ggs, and when asked why they de it
they reply that "their produce is
better than the average run."- In some
cases this is line, but in ethers it is net.
rersens who go te marael early are
charged mere for produce than these who
come late. This is without doubt as many
of our citizens can testify. This morning
buttci, at some stands, geneially these
who charge mere than the rest, sold for
40 cents a pound, while in ether stands in
the market house, people were getting it
for JIG and !S cents, and '-.very bit as geed.
The county folks Isave the. advantage of
us, for if they d net get their own pi ice
they take their things home, or ship
them te the oily. At the impromptu
meetings cveiy farmer is net
is net allowed te lie present, only the.se
who arc the highest prices. We would
advise our citizens te hunt all ever the
market house, who is the cheapest seller,
and if his things are net as geed as these
who receive five cents mera for the same,
we have no meiu te say, for the produce
the fanner biing.s te mailed arc necessities
and we must have them at any pi ice.

The President's Last Moments.

struggle, his breathing was heavy, but net
laborious.

ing of the president's last moments, said,
" He was net conscious after I arrived.
The attendants did net fully realize his
condition. He had spekcu te General
Swaim only a moment before, and the lat
ter could net believe that the end was
coming se seen. As I entered the room I
saw that it would seen be ever, aud I ox ex
claimed, ' My Ged, Swaim, he is dying ;
send for Mrs. Garfield !' He was never
conscious after that and did net speak. "
" When I get te the sick room I found
the president powerless, his heart was
slightly fluttering, the apparent cause of
death was neuralgia of the heat t Of which
we had symptoms before in the history of
the case, it was net probably embolism.
He suffered acute pain for a moment, after
that his death was painless.
" He was awakened by the attack. The
extreme emaciation of the president was a
surprise te the undertaker and embalmer.
It is possible te clasp the leg above the
knee with one hand. There arc some
doubts whether if the president lies in
state at Washington it will be deemed
wise te show the remains.
"The attorney general says that arrange
ments have been completed with the rail
reads for the transportation of the remains'
te Washington. The train will start from
Elberon at 10 o'clock te-morrow nerais.
It will be appropriately arrayed and
draped."

tending physicians. The train will take
the same reute as that taken when the
president was removed from Washington.
Ne steps will be made except at water
stations ; and no newspaper men will no
permitted en the train. It is the desire
of theso managing the arrangements for
the removal that no train shall be run
cither in advance or after the president's
special for observation or ether purposes.
The special train will be run slowly, and
all through trains will be laid ever for it
te pass.

mains will be again taken charge of by
