At the evening service out tboir sang, Tor the f;rst time, "Jcrolen. y b117 Ikwm" to the cew air, "Mctropolie,"the mu sic hiving been written down from nirmorv bv Mr. Drown.

As no even ing meetings were ever held in the school house, every one knew tbe bell was ringing lor fire, so each man iu town seized his water pail, rushed out of Lis house, and hurried in tbe direction which was tbe lightest. The Cre proved to be ic tbe Lynd House, a large frame building in which an ambitious newcomer bad started a hotel and failed, all in the first vear of the town. Since be bad abandoned it it bad been principally tawous for lack or paint and for con taining the Tew hard characters who lived at Mount Zion. None of tbe occupants knew bow tbe fire occur red, but their ignorance on the sub ject did not have the least bit or de pressing influence upon the flames. TU j had taken foil possession or the lower portion or the side nearest the bodv or the town, and threw a strong light on the hurrying villag ers. Among these latter was Mr. Drown, bo bad a whole "nest" or pnils on bis shoulder, and was roar ing "fire !' as industriously as ir no env bad eves to see for themselves. Mr. Drown cut the striogs which held the pails together, lines of men were formed to neighboring wells, and wa ter soon began to be freely thrown upon the burning building. Those nearest the fiamet began to retire, however, and it soon became evident that the odds were in favor or tbe f re. Tbe wretched inhabitants were dragging out their miserable effects, and stood looking at the burning building, as ir by doing so they were fu! Idling the whole duty or man, when one or them suddenly, turned to auother, and asked: "Where s old Welsh?" TLc man to w horn he spoke stared i.t tbe Seaker a moment, looked at the burning bouse and ejaculated : 'Thunder !'' "What's that?" asked Mr. Drown, who had just been advising some or the homeless people to move their property into na vbfcudoucd log cabin ear by. "Old Welt-h he ain't come out, I reckon." drawled the Grt speaker. 'Where is he?'' asked Drown quickly. "You don't mean to say be ic in the bouse Tet!"' "Well, I ijw 1 do. though," re plied the man, with another drawl, "lie lived nil by bisseir in the top floor, end I reckon he didn't bear we mis when Jerusolem !'

Several men started, and one man who did not go roared: "Hooray for Drown!" to which sugsre6tion there was a loud re? ponse. . "Much obliged, boys," said the young storekeeper, hastily tying the ttlLer end of the cord to the ror -ow seep paying out t . rone acme. bodv brin? that Udder tipr 'Ite ladder quite a long one, but1, . 5 v. too short to reach the upper fitorv linnlF u-m.Wm... 1 Vi ..j .1 - " I V aLVl I . . ...... u .too uivuui, uu luc rpe cn.uivi itiMcneu io iu urown car ried it up to tbe front of tbe building out cf w hich the flames hadnotyet! l.urr!, iii J a pirtiun of the rope to , the lower round, and tbeD paid in a ;ow t0D(i tut vcry burriedlj: "X0w tell 'em to laul away.

The ladder and Drown safclv reached the roo?, ana L.rown managed to gei u close beside the scuttle way. Hej forced the door open, disappeared and soon re-appeared, followed suc cessively by the bead, Ehirt, panto loons and bare feet or old Welsh. The old man did not seem half awake, but did seem terribly scared and very much more inclined to share tbe fate or tbe bouse than to risk the ladder, but Drown forced him out, made hiui lie dow n on the ladder and submit to being tied. Suddenly the flames burst from the front of the bouse, and a warning shout came op from the men on tbe ground. Drown took in the situa tion at a glance, threw himself upon the ladder, grasped it tightly w ith one band, and w aved the other ener getically. The men at the rope at the foot of the ladder behaved admi rably; they hauled slowly and stead ily, and avoided any violent shaking of the frail skeleton which held two lives, but it was impossible to pre vent drawing it through a small por tion of tbe flame. Oid Welch howl ed as he felt the fierce heat, but he passed quickly through it, and with but little harm". As Drown lowered, however, the volume of the flame suddenlv increased, the young man threw his head back, bis grip relax ed, and be fell. A dozen men hurried 10 break bis fall, and be tumbled in i hp arms of Deacon Jones, who bad on' tbe day before whispered to his wife a fear that at the next election Drown would get to be supervisor and leave tbe deacon out in the cold. They carried him to the nearest house, and both the MouDt Zion doc tors hurried to his side, looked into bis eves, examined bis lips anxiously, and then looked despanngly into each others races. The minister edged one or the doctors aside, and whispered in the dying man's car. Mr. Drown opened bis Irmjrless eye lids a little wider, smiled faintij, gasped, and died. "Poor fellow," groaned Deacon Peterson; "his wuz a promisin ea rier, cut short or a sudden." "Cut short !" echoed Deacon Jones with more anger than a deacon should have so easy or access. "He's took tbe shine out or all or us at everything else, an' now he's got in to heaven before os!" And Deacon Jones' opinion be came that of the public at large. fthe Wanted II in Itrd Tj pe.

COMMENTS OF TORONTO PAPERS. Toronto, August 2. Tbe morning papers contain eulogistic obituary notices or ex-President Johnson. The Mail says : "In intellectual capacity be was not to be placed beside Jefferson, Adams and other rathers of the Re public, but ho had much or their spirit or personal, patriotic virtue, and we may say be was the last American President or the old school." Tbe Globe says : "He must now be numbered w iih other great men whose lives were sborteued as the result, directly or indirectly, or the fierce and terrible stmggle through which the nation passed." TUE REMAINS LYINO. IN STATE. The following special from Green ville, to-day the L'nion and Ameri can was received to-night : Tbe funeral will take place on Tuesday at eleven o'clock, under charge of the Masons. The remains arrived here Sunday morning, aod were deposited at bis residence until this morning, when they were tnken to the court bouse, where they lie in state. His children are here, except bis daughter, Mrs. Drown, who is detained at her residence with Ler mother, who is not expected long to survive the shock occasioned by the ex-President's sudden death. . VMOtltiLNO; .XT ghees villi; The court house, stores and pri vate residences arc drapped in mourn ing, and a deep gloom prevades the community. A large concourse is expected, civic and military. The Governor and State officials aud the Nashville Committee arc expected the morriog. A BEALT1FIL CASKET, in w ith rich silver mountings and ma- sonic emblems, contains the corpse. The body showed 6gns of decompo-i anion iuis morning, anu me ease sras j closed, excluding trom new the lace i or any part of tie body. Upon the silver plate is engraved "Andrew Johnsoo, aged 67." Upon the walls or tbe court room, where the body lies, are three oil portraits of the de ceased and many photographs of various styles, steel cngraviogs and a splendid bust in medallion, all sur rounded wth badges of mourning. Upon tbe casket, amid wreatb3 of flowers, lies a large steel engraving, in a rich goilt frame, with beavy Masonic insignia. THE TLACE OF BC RIAL. A civic, military and MasouiiT p cession will escort the remains from the court bouse at eleven o'clock, to the place of burial, on Johnson's Hill, balf a mile southwest or the village. This bill is a tract of land owned by the deceased, overlooking the village and plainly visible from tbe railroad. It is said that tbe ex-' President, before the war, marked' the place where he wished to be ' -11 !. .1 1 ouriea, oy planting on the spot a willow, taken, from Lis yard, which was an offsbot of a willaw tree grown, on Napoleon's tomb at St. Helena.

It will be remembered that the ex President left Greenville, after being attacked by cholera, when, as be said, all seemed gloom and despair. Nashville, August 3. The fol lowing special, received to-night from Greenville, Tenu., to tbe JJan ner, says : The events of to-day have justified yesterday's expectations. The body of Andrew Johnson has been buried in presence or such crowds or people as, liviag, be delighted to free and address. The day opened gloomily, the town being shrouded in mist, which, rising, showed the mountains enveloped in clouds. Many misgiv ings aud fears were expressed as to the weather, and many hopes were entertained that the day would bright en. It did so, aud was all that could have been wished for occasionally warm, and somewhat sultry at times, but alternating ia sunshine and shad ow aud free from rain. ARRIVAL OF STRANGERS. Governor Portor, Comptroller Gaines, Senator Fowler, Mr. Durnes, George White and other Nashville visitors ; Deputy Grand Master Con nor, cf tbe Knoxville Commandery, and many Lower East Tennesseeans arrived on the morning trains, cn route to the houses of friends, where they stopped The Governor's and Comptroller's carriage stopped in front or the Court House and they en tered and visited the remains The taste and industry of tho ladies and the energy of the gentlemen of Green ville bad united to make the dingy old court room sadly beautiful and almost a suitable place for the re mains of even au ex-President to lie instate. The casket, plain but ele gant, resting on colliQ-stands in the midst of foliage and flowers, was closed so that no part or the body was visible, butoa it lay au excellent steel engraving or President Johnson, in a beavy gilt Masonic frame, while upon the walls and canopy posts were hung various portraits and en gravings of the deceased. The regu lar trains from the East, arriving at seven and ten, brought a large num ber cf people from tbe up-country, and n special trdiu of seven cirs from Knoxville, at eleven o'clock, brought a large delegation from that city cud many from the other towns along the route. Meanwhile the citizens had been steadily thronging the roads from all directions, and before noon fully 5,000 persons were assembled to attend tho burial. At noon the fami ly came from the residence to the Court House. THE FUSE UAL PROCESSION. Greenville Lodge brought the body out and placed it in the hearse. Tbe procession wa3 formed and marched to the grave, under charge of marshal and assistants, in the fol io win j order: Johnson Guards, Pa trons of Husbandry, Odd Fellows, German band and Dickinson Guards, of Knoxville; Masonic lodges and chapters, hearse bearing the body, with psll bearers attending and Knights Templars as a guard of hon or ; the family iu carriages, Gover nor Porter, other State officers and distinguished guests, members or the press and, lastly, citizens on foot and horseback. Special coverings for the hearse horses, adorned with va ried Masonic insignia, bad been pre pared Tor the occasion by the under takers. MSTINGUSIir.n VISITORS. Among the distinguished visitors no already mentioned, were Judges McFarland and Frigg and Chancel lor Key, Congressmen McFarland, Thornburry and Crutchiield; Repre sentative's Dutler, Taylor, Bnd Lekgewood; Coljut-l John Williams, Colonel Luttereil and Mayor Staub, or Knoxville, to whose industry and energy ia no small degree may be at tributed the large and respectable delegation from that city. Til E GRAVE ON JOHNSON'S HILL The grave is on a hill, a balf mile south west of town, in view and on the left cr the railroad as you go to Knoxville. It is a natural mound, about oue buudrel fret high, and commands a view orthe Unaka range, on the soutbea?t, for fifty miles, while oa the northwest mar bo seen tbe l;l00 Didge and Cumberland moun- taiu. SERVICES AT THE GRAVE. Thither, to the music of the bands, the mournful procession moved, and wa3 arranged in a double circle around tbe grave, leaving an open space or about two hundred feet in diameter, iuclosing the family, the Kuoxville Camruandary, the Knox ville Glee Club and the Governor and other distinguished visitors. The knights tbeu performed their beautiful funeral ceremony, under the lead of Commander Woodward aud aided by the Glee Club. A brief abridgement or the Master Ma son's ceremony of burial was then conducted with much foeling and eloquence, by 1. G. M. Connor, aid ed by the Greenville Lodge, amidst the moans and sighs and tears or th bereaved family. The clods rattled upon the coffin lid of Andrew John son, his body was committed to the dust, his scul to the God who gave it. Nothing whatever of an un plcasent nature occurred to mar tho mournful harmony of the solemn oocasion. Order and quiet reigned during the whole day, and tbe res pectful silence of tbe large concourse of people wa9 a feeling tribute to the I : memory of one who ranked gratitude as tbe chiefost of haraan virtues. PEPARTl RE OF THE STRANGERS At three p. m. the services were concluded and the orderly crowd dis persed. At four o'clock the trains bore awav most or the East Tennes see visitors. Tbe Nashville and Chattanooga delegations left on the seven p. m. train, and Greenville is left alone to mourn tbe loss of her illustrious dead. The Famlaa la Minor. A correspondent of tho London Time, in a letter from Karaman, Asia Minor, after giving many terri ble details of tbe horrible sufferings in manv of the villages in what was anciently known as Lycaonia, con eludes as follows: "I could cite the cases of many other villages. I will end with the worst Devlab or Lvcaonia, was be fore the famine a very considerable village of seven hundred houses; two hundred onlv are now left, all the rest are ruined and deserted. I my self saw a whole quarter of the place in ruins. It possesses a verr exten sive pastoral district, consisting of rounded marble hills, with much grass, but little areable land, and is four to seveu hours' ride distant from a&y other village. Tbe scarcity be gan in 1873. There was no rain; but it was the winter ot 1873-4 which ruined them.- They possessed 43,000 sheep; all perished. Tbey bad 400 pairs or oxen; about five per cent are left. Every house possessed a cow or two, almost all are gone. When no food could be found the poorest of the villagers ate grass, herbs, the bark of bush wood, - and they died by scores, for there was no help nearer than Koniah or Adaoy, every one round them being in the Eame sad condition. At last, in their extremity, some of them found a kind of clay, which they ground down, mixed with water, and swal lowed. I was solemnly assured of tho truth of this. No help came; a few managed to escape toKoniab; or those who contrived to reach Adana neaily all died or typhus. And so the fire went on till nothing was left for it to foed on. Only those w bo once were rich are left now; even they are reduced to the extremity of indigence, and scarce know how to support themselves till the new bar vest comes in. Tbey live on money borrowed from tho merchants with whom they used to do business in better times. For them, as for most other villages, th5 Government did little or nothing. Seed was given indeed, bad that not been provided this year would have been as bad as last. Tbe harvest will be good, but it will onlv just be enough for their absolute wants. Last year the Gov ernment taxes were raised, in many cases by the most violent means; this year the same thing would occur, but there is nothing absolutely nothiog left to take. "'Had all this been told to the Sadr-el Azaiu' (Grand Vizier) said one of my informants, 'he would have been indignant with the Wali for not reporting it before. Tbe au would have been furious with tie Kaimaken for deceiving him as to the real state of things; the Kaimakan would have laid all the blame on us for not bring ing our complaints to him.' And to this bitter irony he added: 'Any gov eminent would be better than this. Such is the present state of things in this beautiful but unfortunate coun try. Let us hope the incoming har vest will bring some relief and tbe Ottoman Government be brought to see the absolute necessity of estab lishing proper communication by roads and railways. Had these ex isted how many useful lives might have been saved, and what a terrible amount of suffering prevented?" Do More for Mather. Is there a vacant place in this bank which I could CU?" was the inquiry of a boy, as with glowing cbeek be stood before tbe manager. "There is none," was the reply. "Were you told that you might ob tain a situation. Who recommended you?" "No one recommended me, sir," calmly answered the boy. "I only thought that I would see." There was a straightforwardness in the manner, and honest determin ation ia the countenance of tbe lad which pleased the man of business, and induced him to continue tbe con versation; he said: "You must have friends who could aid you in obtaining a situation; have you told them?" The quick flash or the deep blue eyes was quenched in the overtaking wave or sadness as he said, though half musingly: "My mother said it would be use less to try without friend?;" then re collecting himself, he apologized for the interruption, and wa3 about to withdraw, when tbe gentleman de tained bim by asking him why he did not remain at school for a year or two, and then enter the business world." "I have no time," was the reply. "I study at home, and keep up with the other boys." "Then you have a place already?" said the interrogator. "Why do you leave it?" "I have not left it," said tbe by quietly. "Dut you wiVh t leave it; -Abut is the matter?'' For a moment the child hesitated; then he replied w ith h lf rtluotaut fraukness, "I must do more for uiy mother." D.-ave word.! Talisman r suecess anywhere, everywhere. They tank into the heart or the listener, recall ing tbe r8d:ent past. Grasping the I hand of the astonished child, he said with a quivering voice: i "My good boy what is ywur uanie? You bhull fill the first vaeaney for an apprentice that occurs in the bank. If, meantime, you need a friend, come to me. Wby do n w ish to do more for your inotl.ei? Have vou no rather?" Tears fillrd the bov'sevea as h re plied: "My rather is dead, my bnlbr.- and sisters are dead, aud toy mother and I are lc-ft aloue to help eucb oth er.

The strong desire er smart, respecta b'o young women to obtain the place of bar maid behind a public house counter is evinced by the number of applicants offering their service in the licensed victualers' newspapers, describing themselves as tall j.cntee!, well educated, attractive, never been out before, and are willing to serve months without wages. I have in my time known many attractive bar maids, and have often beard from their lips tales of misery, whilst oth ers, full of gayety, would not ex change their position oxcept upon a "very eligible offer." Numbers of young females have been brought to the bar throueh unthinking friends of "mine host" the latter t. king the maids upon the sole rcc u menda tion of customers, and, oaeo iutalled bar maids, bar maids they must con tinue, unless married, for few would except their services in any other ca pacity. A great many undoubtedly like the position from pure love cf admiration and vanity. Tbey like to be talked to and converse with flat terers and admirers ; aud their fond ness for dre.-s is considerable height ened by the opportunities afforded of "showing off" to the "fellows" using tbe tavern. It would be far from the trnth to assert that all this al lurement to improprieties with men leads to evil courses as a rule, for as a class, placed ia so many ways of temptatoa' bar maids are far more moral tbaa many other female em ployees that could be easily named. They have no objection to be made love to and accept presents from "softheads" and "spooneys," but! catch them outside the bar with such! In many houses at the West End and the city used by clerks, lawyers, and shopmen, the landlords find it greatly to their interest to bave handsome. fine, thowv, attractive and talkative young ladies behind the bar. The conversation at thes houses is by no meaus or the "good school alphabet." Many of these "voung ladies" have rich dresses in the height of fashion, found them by their employers, and onlv serve at those hours when tbe giddvites" look in to liquor up and feed. It mar be pietv, or something else, that causes this branch or bar maidenhood to forsake the taps oa the seventh day, but cartain it is they always bave their Sundays out and are to be seen at Kew, Richmond, and even the "Zoo," escorted by rich admirers. Many marry rich men, and not long since a Jermyn street bar maid was united to a wealthy ship-owner and member of Parli- ment. The old gent in this case married out of gratitude fortbe young lady's civility at a time when be was taking beer at the bar. Most bar maids possess tbe virtues or civility j and politeness, until tbeir customers get queerly otherwise, and asking for "tick," when the virtues disnppear al together, and instead of "pleas give your orders, gentlemen," tho gentle men are "ordsred out." ith re spect to remuneration being an in ducement to enter the services of the "bar," it must be otherwise, for the general wages average only 10 to 12 per rear. In regard to easy and pleasant duties as encouraging fe males to seek such employment, those who have thought so at first must hare been sadly disappointed. In many West Knd houses, and in those in the great thoroughfares, bar maids are down by fire o'clock in the niorninr, and with the exception of three hours rest in tbe less busy hours of the day, they are at work until half-past 12 at night. They hare to clean the floor of the bar, the taps and too glasses. Iber are in many cases never still or off their feet from early morn to tho middle of the night. On Sundays they hare a few hours to themselres, which are taken up ia cleaning out their garret, and arranging or mending their clothes. Once a month they are al lowed a "day out." They hare to silently bear the filthiest language and disgusting sights, particularly from their own sex. They hare to put up with insults from tbe lowest of the low without a murmur, and all this for less wages than is paid for maids-of-all-work Emibj Faith- Jul Golden drains Nothing is intolerable that is nec- essarr. Dountr, being free itself, thinks all others so. Character is the diamccid that scars erery other stone. All flowers will droop in absence of tbe son that waked their sweets. The imagination is so delicate a texture that even words wound it. A man's own safetr is a god that sometimes makes rerygrini demands. Tbe mind wears the colors of tbe soul, a3 the ralet does that of his master. Prosperity seems to be scarcely safe unless it be mixed with a little adver sity. Sin is tte fruitful parent of distem pers; ana ill lives occasion good phy sicians. There is no voice so simple but as sumes some mark of virtue on its out ward parts. lie who surpasses or subdues man kind must look down on the hate of those below. Suecess has a great tendency to conceal and throw a veil over the evil deeds of meu. Truth is the shortest aud nearest way to uur eud, carrying us thither in a straight line.
