At a special meeting of Jacksonville
Lodge, No. 10, I. O. O. F., held in
their Hall, March C, 1S81, the fol
lowing resolutions in remembrance of
Jacob lib. were unanimously adopted.
Whereas; It has please! God, in
the wisdom that passe th all human un
derstanding, to remove from his earth
ly affiliations, our worthy and bo
loved "brother, Jacob Ish, while yet in
the noou day of his usefulness; there
fore, be it ,
Resolved; 'That- w;hile"', bowing
with sad submission to the Diyine will,
we feel keenly the loss of a brother
whose every action- sprung from a
broad and liberal charity, and whoe
every-day affiliation with his fellow
man proved that the golden chain of
friendship and truth by which he
was bound to us was interwoven with
his heart strings, making him the type
of a true and worthy Odd Fellow.
Resolved; Tlint in tho death of
Brother Ish, Jacksonville Lodge has
lost a member hoxe wise counsel and
unswerving ffdelity to the principles of
our order had endeared him to nil
men and who leaves behind him a
pure and spotless character, both ns a
citizen and Odd Fellow, that can
never fade away.
Resolved; Tbat the tender sympa
thy of this Lodge be extended to the
sorrowing family of our deceased broth
er, with the hope that He, who poured
oil upon the waters, and can alonp
still the wild and troubled bpatings of
human hearts will soften their heavy
affliction and assuag their poignant
grief in his own good time, and that
when tho hart est is gathered, the
worthy brother and loving husband
and father will bo found among the
golden sheaves
Resolved; That in memory of our
departed brother the charter of this
Lodge bo draped in mourning, the
members .wi ar the usual badge of
fmouFrS,.1SU' .7V"S".'W
SaifdithatJSl'cJpv of these resolutions
CCTtiuwH battle teal of the Lodge be
given lo the family of the deceased.
It was also ordered that the forego
ing resolutions be published in the
papers of Jacksonville.

Committee.
Senator Mat Carpenter, one of the
Repub'ican side in the U. S. Senate,
died on Thursday evening, having been
in very poor health all winter. He
was born in Vermont in 1S24, en
tered the Military Academy at West
Point in 1S43, and remained there two
years; studied law with ltufus Choatc,
and was admitted to the bar; removed
to Wisconsin inlS4S, where he entered
upon tho practice of his profession;
was elected to the U. S. Senate to
succeed Jas. R. Doolittlp, serving from
March 4th. I860 to March. 3d. 1875.
and was again elected to succeed Timo
thy 0. Howe in 1879, his term to ex
pire in 1885, if he lived.
Fresh Air. Live out of doors as
much as you can. It is tho place for
a man to be. It is good for the health.
A distinguished physician was in the
habit of spying: "However bad the
air may bex Ait of doors it is always
worse in the house." It is good for
the temper. People who are always
shut up in the house aro apt to grow
fretful nnd peevish. They are prone
to acquire narrow views of things, and
to worry over trials not worth consid
ering. It is good for the whole char
acter for strength, hope, patience 'and
fortitude. It expands and softens one's
nature and makes us more charitable.
Few brighter and quieker replies
have ever been made than that of the
resident of Louisiana who was talking
with a "visiting statesman" four years
ago. The latter was pndeavoring to
establish the respectability of the mem
bers of the famed Returning Board.
"Now take that man" said he. "He
is surely a respectable man. Is ho
not a planterr "Well," replied the
person addressed, "you may call him a
planter, but the things he plant's don't
come up. He's an undertaker.1'
"How old is your book-keeper, M
Tarantretl" asked the customer. And
the old man icily replied that ho be
lieved Mr. Figgers was somewhere in
his adage. And after a solemn pause
the customer got up and said he had
some election bets to look after.
Whereas, it has pleased the Supreme
Ruler of the Universe, in his divine
wisdom, to remove from our midst our
beloved Sister Katie Jones by the
hands of death and,
Whereas, she being taken from our
circle, to that land of eternal bliss, we
feel greatly the loss of our beloved
sister and shall miss her cheerful pres
ence arid her willing help to the cause
that was so dear to her; we sincerely
regret that she has been called from
our circle of Champions of Honor,
therefore be it
Resolved; That in the death of Sis
ter Katie Jones this Order has lost a
member who was ever honest, the ad
vocate of right, the enemy of every
thing that was wrong, a Champion
thoroughly imbued with the principles
of our beloved Order Temperance,
Fidelity, Unity, Justice and Mercy.
Her example should not he lost on us,
although she has passed away from our
sight, the recollection of her devotion
to duty, her love for Championship, her
steadfast and inflexible purpose and
dpsire to promote the success nnd ad
vancement of our noble order, should
linger long with us.
Resolved; That we extend to the
sorrow afflicted family of our deceased
sister our profound sympathies in this
the hour of their sad bereavement, nnd
while trusting that the Supreme Ruler,
who has seen fit to remove from our
circle our beloved sistpr, will soothe
and cherish them, and hold their lives
securely in His merciful hands; let us
not forget that we owe them tho sacred
duty of care and protection.
Rpsolved; That our Lodge Charter
be draped in mourning, and that tho
members wear tho usual badgo of
mourning for the space of thirty days.
Resolved; That these resolutions be
spread in full ujion the records of this
Order, and a copy of the samo' be for
warded to tho family of the deceased
wwMjLtiMV a-vSfrfS. MMMrWsTUf UUUllCy

New Steamer for the ORrUox
Coast. The New York Sun says:
The steamship "Mississippi," recently
purchased by the Oregon Steam Nav
igation Company, will soon take her
place on that line. The "Mississippi"
now lies at the dock of the Morgan
Iron Works, at tho foot of East Ninth
street. This vessel was built at Dum
barton, Scotland, in 1862, to run the
blockade of Southern ports. While
endeavoring to pass into the port of
Charleston the "Mississippi was cap
tured by the United States steamer
"Magnolia." She was condemned as a
prize and sold to the Navy Depart
ment for $500,000.
A book agent, who had retired from
active labor upon the hard-earned ac
cumulations of a life of industrious
cheek, says that tho great secret of his
success was, that when hd went to a
house where the female head presented
herself, he always opened by saying,
"I beg your pardon, Miss, but it was
your mother I wanted to see. That
always used to get 'em. They not only
subscribed for my books themselves,
but told mo where I could find more
customers."
A Great I'mlrrtaLlnjC.
The project for tunneling the British
channel .so long talked of at intervals,
has at last been actually undertaken.
Preliminary excavations have bean
made on both cides the straits, and the
engineers of each nationality speak
hopefully of the ultimate success of thp
scheme. Tho vital question is, first,
whether the gray chalk stratum on the
English hide is impervious to water;
and second in case it is pervious, how
far it tuns toward tho French sidel
At present the prevailing opinion
seems to be that water cannot pene
trate the chalk. Should the tunnel be
completed, and railway communication
bo established between England and
France, a great impetus would be
imparted to international transit. S.

The details we publish of tho prin
cipal facts elicited by last year's census
of.the United States conSrm the im
pression the original summary of re
sults produced. A nation has never
exhibited a more magnificent picturo
of material progress for 10 years:
Since 1870 more than 11,500,000 have
been added to the jopulation at a rate
of 30 per cent increase. Except in
China and Great Britain and Russia!
no Government can count more sub
jects. -In the number of citizens nior-
ed by similar impulses, and recognizing
common ends, tho British Empire it
self yields to the great Republic. Fifty
millions of human beings in a land
like America more than match the 86,
000,000 of European and Asiatic Rus
sia. The 425,000,000 of China aro not
to be compared with tlmm as a force
among mankind. The growth of a
population may generally be under
stood to imply the growth of wealth
and resources. As each census ii a
European State indicates a numerical
advance, it may for the most part bo
inferred that fresh means of support
havo been made available. When,
however, every successive census in tho
United States reveals nn expansion by
bounds and leap, faith in tho instinct
of human nature not to multiply,
beyond tho power of existence is scarce
ly needed to rc-assUfe anxiety. The
grainery which is to feed the now mil-'
lions which have come and the millions
which are to follow, piles its stores for
the whole wcrld to certify them. Each'
added American citizen has not to
scarrh for tho livlihood nature hides'
somewhere or other for all its children,

A citizen of New Jersey, recently
introduced to a newly married man,
congratulated him warmly, and said:
"Ah, those Paterson girls make clever
wives; I'vo hnd three of 'em." .
"I wonder, uncle," said a litUe girl;
"if men will ever yet live to be 500 or
1,000 years old?" "No, my child," re
sponded the old man, "that was tried
once, nnd the race got so bad the
world had to bo drowned."
A voung lady was caressing a pret
ty spaniel and murtriurinc: "I do love,
a nice dog!" "Ah," sighed a dandy
standing near, "I would I were a dog."
"Never mind," retorted the lady
sharply, "You'll grow."
A Boston man found a rough look
