s TlicY. Y. Advocate ot December lGthy
gives tlie following account of the death of
Kkv. John Van Clkve, D. D., the father
... of the editor oi the Register, in the city
of New York, on the eveuing of December
7th, 1S75:
Rev. John Van Cleye. D. D., of the
Southern IUinoise Conference, died In this
city on Tuesday evening of last week, Dec.
7. IIs was a member of the General Mis
sionary Committee, and came to this city,
accompanied by his wife, in time for the
lalo session, which began Nov. 10. He
was present but a single day, alter which a
most distressing maladv confined him to
the house, and for the mo&t part to his bed.
He was the guest of Gilbert Oakley, Esq.,
who, with the family, were unremitting in
13 attentions to the venerable sufferer..
By the morning of the seventeenth his diss,
ease had put on an alarming aspect, and
no ordinary instrumentality : could give
relief. The attending physician, as the
- only hope ot saving his lite, required that
he should at once be removed to St. Luke's
Hospital, so that sufficient surgical aid
could be had and the attendance of skilled
nurses secured. Dr. Keid, one of the
Missionary Secretaries, accordingly made
arrangements, and lie was conveyed there
in a carriage. In the course of the day
relief was found, but it was only of brief
duration. The disease raged on till it de
prived him ot lite. ,
He evidently anticipated a fatal termina
tion, and spoke of it with composure. As
the time approached he sank into a stupor,
from which he never roused, and may em
phatically be said to have fallen asleep in
Jesus.
Bishop Janes and Dr. Keid conducted
funeral services at the hospital, in presence
of Dr. Nelson and several city pastors and
friends. Dr. Dnsliiell had not yet returned
from North New York. The remains, ac
companied by his widow and grandson,
were taken on the evening train (Pennsyl
vania Railroad) of December 8. for his
home in Carlisle, 111. nc is to be interred
at Alton".
At the hospital tie bad a pleasant room,
and the best medical and other attendance,
and his wife spent each day with Iter afflict
ed husband. To the officers of the institu
tion a debt of gratitude is due - tor their
many kind attentions.
Father was in his seventy-second year,
and had been connected with the M. ,13.
Church for more than sixty years. For
over half a century he had preached ;a.
greater portion of the time in Illinois) tlie
.unsearchable riches of Christ, and when
death called him he was engaged in the
work of his Master, having been appointed
by the last Illinois Annual Conference to
the charge at Carlisle, Ills. After so long
a period devoted to preaching the Word
and faithfully working for the Master, he
goes to his reward, without spot or blemish
to tarnish his fair name, known and loved
by hosts of people for his great charity,
deep piety, faithfulness in the discharge of
- all his duties as a christian and 'a citizen,
and the nobleness of soul which character
ized his every act and deed. . He died poor
indeed in this world's goods, but he leaves
legacy of far more worth to his - children
but two of whom are left to keep sacred
liis memory than diamonds or gold; a
.; legacy rich iu good deeds, in kind -words
fitly spoken, in a character unspotted and
;intarniHhcd.
He made a good fight, bo won the race,
and ho has gone to his exceeding great re
ward. '

Emtoe Register: Peiliaps av word to
your columns from this part of the world
would not be out of place. lean imagine
you people on the sunny side of the Rocky
Mountains, beneath an Italian Sky, In the
enjoyment of a temperate climate. It is
far otherwise with me whose bones were
reared. in the genial climate of an Oregon.
With us the lime has gone by when, while
only the pale-faced moon with Iialf-hidden
face looks down upon the scene, the wing
ed boy flits above the gate urging the con
test of lovers. Yes, tbo inclemency of the
weather has driven such contestants from
their strongholds. Altliongh it Is not as
cold as we expect it will be, it seems to be
cold enough for all practical purposes. Ice
cutting, however, must be excepted, " for
we must have Ice, else the heat of our sura
' mers would be almost unendurable. The
extremes of temperature in this State are
very great; also in Ohio and Illiuois, as I
can testify by experience, r
Farming implements In . these States,
and the facilities for agriculture, excepting
corn culture in Illinois, are far inferior to
that of Oregon and California. In Illinois,
last season, ; we were a little afraid the
grasshoppers would niake a raid on ns, but
fortunately the embryo grasshopper irn
providently left its parental roof iu Kansas
' en twite tor Illinois, and was caught out in
the late Spring rains without umbrella or
waterproof, thus contracting: a fatal nut
monary complaint; so he did not reach us.
, and crops would have been good had they
. not oecn nrowneu out uuring tnc bummer.
We nave many fine, substantial buildings.
but a great number of mere excuses. In
Ohio I will venture there can bo found

Orezon. asked what kind
f t ec .a bred there. - He looked ns if he
tho..: t they rti.l not coma within the five
races. I replied tliey are just such people
a? they rre hrr. I was almo?t tempted
to reply that they see with their eyes, hear
by means of ear, talk with tongues, feel
with their finders and live, in houses. I
told him of Oregon's grand scenery, de
lightful climate and productive resources;
that she had lcr school-houses and her
churches; that a jcr!on there in looking
upwards seems to be in the middle of tlie
world, just as much as if lie were at Boston,
"the hub." about which, to a Bostoniau,
all else seems to revolve. -With eyes of
wonder and amazement at these revelation,
he expiessed a desire to see that country,
ar.d as the Professor rose for lecture, ex
pressing a dsire for a further interview, lie
withdrew to hi seat.
THE VKIVEKSITT OF MICHIGAN
Is a part of tlie public educational system
ot the Suite, and consists of three depart
ments. Literature, Science and the Arts;
Law mid-Medical. The buildings are
large and substantial. Besides the Art
gallery, the Geological. Zoological and
Botanical rooms all are well supplied with
scientific specimens. The Astronomical
Observatory is quite an interesting feature,
in charge of Prof. Watson, who was sent
bv the United States to Pekin to observe
the transit of Venus. The Professor has
also made some very valuable discoveries
in the stellar regions. The law depart

excellent facilities for reducing Blackstone

man is only content when he can lavish
npon his wife all the luxuries in the way
of dress the female heart can desire. He
is only happy when, iu company with
his wile, iu the house, iu the street, or
on the promenade, she is the b&t dress

husband there is no grumbling consent
to bestow upon you enough to buy a
pair of boots, while he spends ten times
that amount with his friends in cham
pagne snppers ; no long-drawn visage as

agance, Not a bit of it. ' On the con
trary, the Greek husband does not lead
his wife through by-streets, for fear of
silkmercers, when she wishes to go out
for a little walk. . He leads her past the
most fashionable shops, and -observes,
with the eye of a criiic, all the new styles
and is really, ladies really and truly
