The subject, being thus hygienic

to the best mode of preserving health
(a matter iu which we are all deeply

Joseph Jefferson, the actor, wrote
a Cincinnati gentleman that "My firt
appearance on the stage of life took
place in Philadelphia on the 2ith of
February, 1823. It would be quite
impossible for me to give you a full
list of all the parts I have played, but
the following are some of the principal
ones: Bob Acres, Doctor Pangloss,
Asa Trenchard, Dr. Ollapod, Calel
Hummer, Tony Lumpkin, Newman
Noggs, Dogberry, Mr. Golightly,
Touchstone, Fixture, Launcelot Uobbo,
Diggory, Ac. Oli! I forgot: Rip Van

By the elections of 18sn the Re
publicans secured a clear majority of
one of the Representatives of the
Forty-Seventh Congress. The roll
stood: Republicans, 147; Democrats.
134; Greenbackers, 9; Reudjusters,
2, and the Independent J. Hyutt
Smith, of New York. The vacancies
since made by death and resignation
have all been filled except the one
caused by the promotion of Nelson W.
Aldrieh to the Senate, but there is
doubt about the election of Colonel
Stooner the Republican candidate.
The defeat of Mr. Wm. W. Astor,
win) hoped to suceed Hon. Levi P.
Morton from New York, cuts down
the Republican strength to 14(1, or one
less than a majority, and Mr. Flower's
election lifts the Democrats to 135. Of
the nine Greenbackers. six are classed
as Republicans. J Hyatt Smith has
announced Ids Intentions of voting
for a Republican Speaker, and the
Readjustee from Virginia are very
likely to follow the lead of Mahone.
Hence the Republican control of the
next House seems to be reasonably
secure.
The Clearfield Republican says:

DEATH Or ONE OP TUB TRAtlt BOB
BERS IN THE ARKANSAS PENITEN
TIARY. A very sad death occurred In the
penltentlry yesterday. All deathsare
sad, but ot all deaths the death from a
broken heart Is the saddest. P. E.
Sullivan, alias William Delaney, a
young man of 23 years, one of the
train robbers recently sentenced to 70
years In the Arkansas penitentiary,
was the victim of a broken heart.
Several days ago he became gloomy,
and going to Dr. Lenow, prison physi
clan, complained of being sick. Upon
examination the physician discovered
that the man was not suffering from
any perceptible disease, but his pulse
was 140. He was ordered to the
hospital,
where every possible care was given
htm. He revived after a time, but
every one could see despair written on
his countenance. He entered the
prison cheerfully, and lightly spoke of
the long term of bis sentence, but
after a while ft letter came. When he
read the lines hU spirits slink. Tears
told of a misery that ink could not ex
press. He went again to his bed.
'The shadows are gathering fast
and night Is oppressing me with Its
darkness," he said yesterd ty to some
one standing near. "One crime, and
then death In a penitenitary. My old
father, who has preached the Gospel
for years, who many and many a
time clasped bis hands about my
head and prayed, lias been humbled
in his old age. And my mother! If I
could on y here her voice. But walls
and law are between us. I am as one
who is dead. She could come to me,
but I cannot go to her." His thoughts
wandered. At times he seemed to be
at church, listening to his father
preach; and then beseemed to be play
ing with his sister. He smiled and
laughed softly. "All!" he would say,
your brother never forgets you"
Suddenly bis face grew dark, ami,
waving his hands wildly, he begun to
mutter broken sentences. "Seizing
the bridle rein, he sprang upon bi-r
antagonist's horse and dashed away "
He's reading one of those wild books
that we used to steel away and devour,"
said one of the dying man's compan
ion in crime. "Halt! he exclaimed,
drawing a revolver and leveling it .t
the head of young Horace,'' continued
the sufferer. '-Slowly and sadly they
left the church and walked alon the
well-worn path to the rude grave of
Lawrence. Standing near the stone
placed there by the Indian, Casperand
his fair companion '' uud lie mut
tered incoherently the sentence dying
away with a deep groan. Suddenly
iic raided himself, looked intently
toward the door, and slowly sank
back. dead.

Assassination of Rnlsrs.
Within a period of. seventeen years
two Presidents of the United States
have fallen by the hands of assassins.
The full significance of the fact will be
more completely realized when It Is
remembered that, during the fourteen I
hundred years that have elapsed since
the foundation of the French kingdom
under Clovis, but twoof hersoverelgns
have fallen by assassination, and that
In England, from the time of Egbert,
who was the first to bear the title of
King or England (In 827)to. the pres
ent, but one case of unmistakable,
open assassination has occurred. Ed
ward the Martyr was stabbed In the
back while drinking a cup of mead on
horseback. William Rufus, It will be
remembered, was pierced by an arrow
while hunting in the forest, but it is
uncertain whether the arrow was dis
charged accidentally or Intentionally,
liven If wo give the worst Interpre
tation to the death of the latter, we
have but two cases of assassination in
In a period of soma thousand and fifty
years. Others or tno rngiisii sover
eigns, however fell by violence. Edw'd
IL and Richard III, were secretly
smothered after being deposed. Henry
VI, died in the Tower after the assas-
slon of Edward IV , but In what man
ner Is not known Young Edward V.
was murdered iu the Tower by order
of Richard III., before, however, his
reign fairly iiegaii. Tljls record Is
moody enough, and to It should bn
added, perhaps, the instance of Spen
cer Perceval, First Lord of the Treas
ury and Premier, who was shot down
in the lobby of the House of Com
mons in 1812; but we find only four
monarchs J perishing from unlawful
violence iu more than a thousand
years of English history, and two
rightful rulers in the short period of
seventeen years in our own history
struck down by assassins! When it is
remembered that English and French
istory covers many peroids of great
disorder, that there were numerous
wars, rebellions, and contentions for
the crown, and that the age of oolit
leal violence Is now commonly sup
posed to have gone by, the contrast
between the two records Is startling.

Forestville, Chautauqua county,
may not lie as large or lively as some
other places, but it lias managed to
get up u first-class elopement case, the
particulars of which are us follows:
There is a law firm in the village by
the name of Record !c Hooker. Mr.
Record has a handsome daughter,
Nellie, who became enguged to the
junior partner, Mr. Hooker, two years
ago. The wedding was postponed
once at the young lady's request, and
Thursday last was named as the last
day of grace. Invitations were out
and preparations made. Nellie was
not pleased with lier prospective union,
and frequently declared that she did
not wish to marry Mr. Hooker. The
night before the expected marriage she
took one Dell Dye by the big right
hand and together they went before
the Itcv. Mr Looli. Mr. Look in
spite of his name, couldn't see it,
and they then drove to Hamlet,
where a clergyman tied the desired
knot. Returning to Forestville, they
took rooms at the Forest House,
aiiounced themselves as man and wife,
and remained over night.
The bride and groom are of about
the same age, eighteeu summers. Mr.
Hooker lias the sympathy of the com
munity and is entitled to a certain
amount of congratulation.

The Sun.
NEW YORK, 1882.
The Sun for 1882 will make Its fift
eenth annual revolution under tne
present management, shining, as
always, for all big and little, mean and
gracious, contented and unhappy, Rep
ublican and Demooratio, depraved and
vituous, intelligent and obtuse. Tua
Son's light Is for mankind and
womankind of every sort; but Its genial
warmth Is for the good, while it pours
hot discomfort on the blistering backs
ofthe persistently wicked.
The Sun of 1863 was a newspaper of
a new kind. It discarded many oi
the forms, and a multitude of the super
fluous words and phrases of ancient
journalism. It undertook to report In
a fresh, succinct, unconventional way
all the news of the world, omitting no
event of human Interest, and commen
ting upon uffuirs with the fearlessness
of absolute Independence. The suc
cess of this experiment was the success
of The Sun. It effected a permuuent
change In the style of American news
papers. Every important journal est
ablished In this country in the dozen
years past has been modelled after
The Sun. Every Important journal
already existing lias been modified
and bettered by the force of ,Thk
Sun's example.
TllESuNofl8S2 will be the same
outspoken, truthtelling, uud Interest
ing newspaper.
By a liberal use ofthe means which
an abundant prosperity affords, we
shall make it better than ever before.
We shall print all the news, putting
it into readable shape, and measuring
its Importance, not by the trudilionul
yardstick, but by its real interest to the
people. Distance from Printing House
Square is not the first consideration
with The sun. Whenever anything
happens worth reporting we get the
particulars, whether it happens in
Brooklyn or in Bokhara.
In politics we have decided opinions;
and are accustomed to ex press them in
language that can be understood. We
say what we think about men and
events. That habit is the only secret
of The Sun's political course.
The Weekly Sun gathers into
eight pages the best matter of the
seven dally issues. An Agricultural
Department of of unequalled merii, full
market reports, and a liberal propor
tion cf iiturary, scientific, and domestic
intelligence complete The Weekly
Sun, and make it the best newspaper
tor the farmer s household that wus
ever printed,
Who does not read and like The
Sunday Sun, each number or which
is a Golconda of interesting literature,
with the best poetry of the day, prose
every line worth reading, news, humor
matter enough to fill a good sized
book, and infinitely more varied and
entertauing than any book, big or lit
tle? If our idea of what a newspaper
should be pleases you, send for The
Sun.
Our terms are as follows:
For the daily Sun, a four page sheet
of twenty eight columns, the price by
mail, post paid, is Go cents a month, or
$6.50 a year; or including the Sunday
paper, an eight-page sheet of fifty-six
columns, the price is 65 cents per
mouth, or, $7.70 a year, postage paid.
The Sunday edition of The Sun Is
also furnished separately at $1.20 a
year, postage paid.
The price of the Weekly Sun,
eight pag.is, fifty-six columns, is $1 a
year, postage puid. For clubs of ten
sending flu we will send an extra
copy free.
