WASHINGTON, August 26_Johnson's and Grant's
correspondence, relating to Sheridan's removal,
was published this morning ia tho Now York
Herald and Boston Post.
Whits House gossip has the following : Sheri?
dan, leaving the Fifth District in chargo of Harr
suff, proceeds to the West, relieving Haucock, who
then assumes paramount chargo of tho Fifth Dis?
trict. They talk of Swayne as Pope's, and Meade
as Sickles' successor.
The Mexican Legation publishes documents
showing that Escobedo's letters against foreigners
are forgeries.
The excitement in the New York gold room had
its origin in an editorial which appeared in the
National Intelligencer of this morning, which only
tells an old story that the members of the Cabi?
net, in view of Stanton's tenaciousness, had in?
formally placed their offices at the disposal of the
President. There is no probability of immediate
Cabinet changes.
Grant's letter to thc President says that the peo?
ple who havo sacrificed their lives and spent their
dollars for their country's preservation, aro entire?
ly opposed to Sheridan's removal. He performed
his duties faithfully and intelligently, and his re?
moval will be regarded as an effort to defeat Con?
gressional views, and embolden to renewed oppo?
sition those who attempted to break tho Govern?
ment by arms. General Thomas hos repeatedly
objected to being placed in charge of either of tho
five districts. Hancox' department is intricate,
and he should not be removed. Grant adds, there
are military, pecuniary and, above all, patriotic i
reasons why this order should not bo insisted
upon.
The President, in replying, says he is not aware
that the question of Sheridan's retention has been
submitted to the people. It would be unjust to
tho army to assume that Sheridan alone is capable
of commanding the 5th District. Thomas' ad?
ministration of tho Department of the Cum?
berland will compare favorably with Sheri?
dan's government of tho 5th District. Sheri?
dan has'rendered himself obnoxious by his man?
ner of executing the law and more by as
suming authority not granted to him. His rule has
has been one of absolute tyranny without reference
to the principles of our government or the nature o' j
free institutions. His course has seriously inter?
fered with tho harmony and speedy execution of j
the Acts of Congress, and his removal cannot be
regarded to affect or defeat them. The object cf
the change is to facilitate the execution through
an officer who never failed to obey the statutes of
tho land, and, within his jurisdiction, requires like
.obedience from others.
Tne President compliments Thomas and Han?
cock, and feels assured that under General Sher?
man's ?Tiidance, Sheridan will win honor fighting
Indians. lu conclusion tho P.-esidcnt fails to per?
ceive any military, pecuniary or patriotic reason
why this order should not be carried into effect.
An immense crowd witnessed the defeat of tho
Nationals by the Mutuals of New York. Tho
President was on the ground, and received with
hearty cheers.
The Internal Rovonno receipts to-day amount
to $836,000.

RICHMOND, August. 26.-General Schofield bas
.decided that the State Poor Laws shall bo en?
forced with reference to the paupers to whom the
Freedmen's Burean has ceased to give rations. By
this decision all tho black vagrants who crowded
to the cities of Virginia after tho war will bo re?
turned to their respective counties where they oro
citizens. The white paupers will be treated in
the same wav. The City Council is about oponin;
anew Alma House for colored people.
The case of the colored Canadian who applied for
redress, because the owners of tho steamship Hat?
teras refused him a first cabin passage on account
of his color, was decided by U. S. Commissioner
Canoon this morning. He decided that the Civil
Bights Bill only referred to citizens of the United
States, and that foreigners could not obtain redress
under it.
Major De la Meter, Chief of the Medical Bureau
of this District, was mustered out to-day. This

A Republican colored meeting was held in Man?

"WATCHMAN, WHAT OP THE NIGHT ?
Tho New York Herald, in its issue of Saturday,
delivers itself of another sensational exhortation
to President JOHNSON. It says : "Will Mr. JOHN?
SON finally riso to the demands of tho situation V
Can he ? Ibo next few wocks will show us. Judg?
ing, however, from past blunders-his apparent
desire to embody in himself all political puwer ;
to mergo into unity thc three branches of govern?
ment, and call that unit ANDEEW JOHNSON ; to
placo himself alone as tho exponent whicli gives
the only value to every political equation ; to make
the people, who have fought for and gained tho
great battle of nationality, believe that Congress
docs net reprcsont thom-he will fail to take for?
tuno at the flood and redeem himself."
Tho Herald then proceeds to say that Congress
ba? no moro risen to tho magnitude of the prob?
lem than has Mr. JOHNSON; that the first thin? the
President must do is to brush away his entire
Cabinet. New issues demand new men. ''Had
Mr. JOHNSON, upon his accession to power, named
a new Cabinet and called Congress together im?
mediately, the reconstruction of tho South would
long siuco have been ended; for he and the
peoplo, through their Congress, would have pulled
togothcr in a common purpose."
This we fully boliove. It is very easy to sec
this now, when wo know, from bitter experience,
that a contrary course has led to disastrous ro
sults. But iu what follows wo cannot agree with
the Herald : '-It is not too late yet to restore har?
mony between the forces of Government. Now,
however, is the moment to strike. Let the Presi?
dent, by virtue of the executive right given to him
by our fundamental law, suspend the Cabinet, the
Tenure of Office Bill to tho contrary notwithstand?
ing. If he has no courage to do this, he is
not equal to tho occasion."
"Besides tho reconstruction of his Cabinet, Mr.
JOHNSON is master of tho best method for the re?
construction of tho South, and by a single stroke
of his pen may, by virtuo of the power which the
Constitution gives him, proclaim universal amnes?
ty-amnesty for the white wbo was foolish enough
to run into rebellion with the idea that he alone
was created to govern tho countiy; amnesty for
the poor negro, whoso intellect ?B completely un?
settled by our political quarrel over him; amnesty
for the North, which is heartily sick of paying the
bills for theso Ethiopian theatricals; amnesty for
our commerce, our agricultural interests, our pro?
gress as a people; above all, amnesty for tho brains
of our statesmen. Let us, therofore, have a new
Cabinet and a general amnesty."
This is all very fine talk. Nothing more; utter?
ly impracticable). There aro soveral difficulties in
tho way of tho execution of this programme. L
The President is not equal to thc occasion. 2. He
cannot disregard the laws of Congress without
jeoparding his position and official existence. 3.
A declaration of amnesty, as wo stated yesterday,
would be of no avail.
Unless wo aro much mistaken, ninety-nine out
of every hundred ex-Confederates have already re?
ceived tho benefit, either of goneral amnesty, un
dor thc President's proclamation of June, 1865, or
of a special pardon since granted by him. A
declaration of universal amnesty, therefore, would
net add ovor one per cent, to the number already
enjoying tho immunity it would be capablo of con?
ferring. But ann.caty and pardon from the Exe?
cutive, wo have already seen, does not remove
political disability, imposed by Act of Congress.
However unconstitutional tho President may deom
this infringement on his prorogative, ho has nevor
signified his intention of sotting asid3 any of tho
Acts of Congress, either in whole or in part.
A revolution is necessary to effoct what tho
Herald proposge. But it in our finn conviction,
that tho Herald only desires to raise a sensation,
and gives little hoed to the logical result to which
its propositions would lead.
Letter* from the Co a nt ry.
WEBT POINT, GEO., August 23, 1867.
Mr. Editor:-The prospects of trade from tho
northern part of this State with our city, are flat?
tering, and if our merchants, factors and bankers
do their share in providing facilities, cotton will
go to Charleston from all places on their lines of
Railroad. It will not do to send out prices cur?
rents and cards-but there must be actual con?
tact, man witii man. The country merchant
wants to sooUio city merchant and factor, aud ono
such interview is worth a dozen visits from a
subordinate. Rome, Cartersvillo, Mariotta, New
nan, Grantville, Augusta and West Point, all will
bo filled with cotton, and ire scant of goods. It
is as natural for this part of Georgia to trade
with Charleston, as it is with Savannah or Au?
gusta. And from tho former city a vast amount
of merchandise ought to be supplied to these pisces
as we'4 as tommy other towns. It is amusing
to see how tho intelligent merchants regard thc
efforts made by New York, houses to procure buy?
ers through "prices currents " and "circulars."
For instance, the other day I met a resident
merchant of ono of tho towns I havo mentioned,
and he laughed heartily at a " circular " ho had
just received from a " Cotton Houso" in Now York.
This " circular" undertook to tell him and tho
South, generally, "how tho negroes were work?
ing," how much rain bad fallen, and how the cot?
ton was affected by it, what the effect of guano
was on coro and cotton, Ac, and gave quotations
of prices for a week past, the writer forgetting
that the telegraph wire carries to every Southern
merchant who deals in cotton, tho prices at
Liverpool, New York, Charleston, Savannah, Ac,
of tho day before. Within twenty-four hours every
one is posted of any chango iu any market in the
world.
Let me once moro recur to tho subject of Rail?
roads for the purpose of urging on our citizens,
the project of the Milleu and fiajkahatchie Rail?
road. Gentlemen, one and all just spread c map
of Georgia beforo you and examine it as 1 pro?
ceed, a line drawn from Newnan to Griffin forms, j
with tho Railroads leading to Atlanta from thoso
towns, a triangle. Around that triangle up to
Atlanta, all the .cotton and merchandise, fromjor .
to, West Point, Lagrango, Newnan and the interme?
diate points, must pas* at present. But a Railroad
is now being built from Newnan to Griffin, which
saves forty-seven miles and turns all this trade
perhaps, toward Savannah. Now look at the map
and seo how tho road from Augueu to Columbia
cuts across your line of trado, and opening a short
n mt o to tho great Northern iiit:es from the far
South. I would not oppose tho bulidipg of that
road or any other. It is not our policy so to do.
There aio only two things required to build any?
where a railroad. First, tho demand of tho peo?
ple, an J, second, their ability to pay for it. Tho
Columbia and Augusta Scad ought to be built and
will be. But what should wo of Charleston do?
Look onco moro at your map; glance your ??ye.
from Pocotalig.o to Millen, a space of sixty miles
close that by a rail-and thence your eye runs
along over nearly a straight tine of railroad to tho
Mississippi, and even beyond. You have almost
an air lino to Macon, Columbus and Vicksburg I
niufting the shortest possible route from New Or?
leans to New York, and opening up a vast country
to the trado of Charleston-a country aoatjpod to
bo the yery garden pf tho South. Is there not
energy enough in the old city to tako hold of this
work ? $1,200,0<H) would build and equip tho road,
which, when completed, would increase our bus>
nets ono hundred per ceut. If that road was now
built, I am siiro there would ba sent over it this sea?
son 200,000 bales of cotton. This is no exaggera?
tion. Georgia and Alabama are full of Cotton.
Good judges aro placing tho crop of Georgia,
alone, at f>"'0,000 bales; and in a few years thw
State, under the inproved husbandry which is
being introduced, and abuut which I have some?
thing to say by and by, will produce & million and
a half bales of cottou, and provisions enough t?
feed her people beeides. Looking at the railroad
routes as now completed, uud as suggested and
surveyed, l am painfully convinced thar flic busi?
ness salvation of Charleston depends upm the im
nitidtate building of the Kalkahatchie and Millen
Road. H we do not build tins road, there must
be, by and by, a road built from .Millen tc Branch?
ville, and then "farewell, a long farowolP to all thc
commercial prosperity of our good ild, but Barely
afflicted, city. A. B. C.

PRESIDENTIAL RACE-SPECULATION SLOW ON THE
TOI'IC-0 RANT THE ONLY SURE MAN IF NOMINATED
FREEDMEN'S BUREAU-WHO IS TO BE SECRETARY OF
WAU? ETC., ETC.
WASHINGTON, August 22.-Tho administration of
the affairs of tho War Department, by tho General
in-Chief, in his nowly created offico of Seoretary
of War, aa interim, has been characterized by a
very remarkable activity in one thing, nt lea t,
even if no other could be noted, and that is tho
summary disposal of volunteer officors, many of
whom had become settled vory comfortably in
their various positions; some under tho Freedmen's
Burean; somo in thc Surgeon and Adj n tan t
Goneral s oflico, and others in other spheres
of military existence. As a gonoral thing, tho
"Regulars," those of the old army, are rather glad
to seo this, as for some reason or other tho esprit
du corps, among tho West Pointers, keeps them
aloof in their foelings and social dealings with tho
"hardy volunteers." General GRANT, however, is
working on the score of economy, and intends to
keep on reducing tho expenses of the War Depart?
ment ; and with it, of course, the expenses of the
Government, in a style which olicits praises from
manv, and solid denunciations coupled with dole?
ful misgivings as to his political complexion from
almost as many more. His deeds are not hid
under a bushel, for every morning brings out new
orders of special importance, which indicato
tho manner of work-that of clearing out tho vol?
unteer army-in which ho is engaged, and tho en?
ergetic General, with his constant segar, may bo
Beon froquontly during the day en route to his
headquarters, the War Department, or to the
Whito House, busily intont upon the performance
of his duties, whether it consists either in fram?
ing orders or in obeying thom, and then at three
o'clock he goes home and takes, first his dinner,
and then his drive, and no ono who, not knowing
the Genera], who would see him on the Fourteenth
street road behind a fast horse, and sometimes
bohiud two, always holding tho reins himself,
would imagine that ho was tho man so very much
talked about and who dooa so little talking.
I hear of very little talk now on thc Presidential
topic. Tho numerous martyrs in the field, com?
bined with the multitudo who have claims in that
direction, and who press them, has, for tho nonce,
put an end to that kind of speculation, and conse?
quently an atmosphere of silence prevails. Thora
is also a well-defined anxiety among tho leading
politicians of tho extreme radical school to know
more of tho spirit which shall rule tho fall elec?
tions befor? proceeding to compromise themselves
in favor of any particular candidate. It is every?
where conceded that thero must bo a military man
on tho ticket, but whether the shoulder straps aro
to go into tho Whito House or preside over tho
United States Senate is anothor question not yet
agreed upon. Not p. fow of the Republican poli?
ticians (particularly the New England members,
of the party; want Gonoral HOWARD, of the Freed?
men's Bureau, on tho ticket as tho candidate for
Vicc-Prosident, and would not object to it in com?
pany with Chief Justice CHASE, who is from Ohio.
SHERIDAN'S backers aro still strong, but STANTON,
I since his removal, has materially lessoned tho
prospocts of that officer, although tho late War
Minister is known to have emphatically asserted
that he would, upon no condition, be a candidate
However, there is ample timo to discuss this, as
thc. wire-pullers themselves aie now entirely at
sea aud at tho mercy of the wa voa. Of .tho wholo
affair, thero seems but ono thing that is absolutely
certain-Gon. GRANT can be President if ho wants
to, and tho only singular thins; in connoclion with
this ia. that somo of his friends, who only a short
time ago wcro proud to hoist his name upon their
standards with loud expressions of applause, in
di-cussing tho matter now cannot seo how a sol?
dier with a life long career of greatness before him
could be provailcd upon to relinquish it for the
precarious four years' position of Proeident. Well,
nobody knows to a certainty ; but possibly that is
what GRANT thinks himself,-and possibly not.
It has boon a question of no Little interest to
know who would succeed Major General HOWARD
as Commissioner ol' the Bureau of Freedmen's
Affairs. Several officers of prominence. in tho
service liavo beon mentioned, among them Gen.
SICKLES, who it was said yesterday would bo trans?
ferred to duty in charge of tho Frocdmon's
Bureau new in chargo of General HOWARD,
whilo tho latter would bu assigned to duty in the
place thus mado vacant. To-day, however, new
rumors in that connection are on the tapis, and
two or thrco others havo been brought forward.
General HOWARD'S friends think that although
ho may bo divested of his volunteer rank of
Major-Gcnoral, which loaves him a Brigadier
Goneral in tho regular army, novertheloss ho will
remain in charge of the Bureau. Certainly for tho
purposes for which that departmont was institut?
ed, General HOWARD is a very proper man.
There have beon somo speculations as to the
length of timo Genoral GRANT will remain in chargo
of the War Department, and successors to thc ad?
ministration of its affairs aro almost daily brought
before tho public. I know, from very positive
authority, that so far no thought bas entered the
mind of the President as to whoo ho (Gen. GRANT)
will be relieved of its cares, and a now incumbont
appointed. The matter is one of tho greatest un?
certainty-it might bo in the course of a woek,
and possibly not until the meeting of Cjngross.
In tho meantime tho Genoral-in-'Jhief, by a syste?
matic devotion of time to tho requisite duties of
the position nt tho head of that Departmont, is
earning for himself praisos for executive and ad
mintrativo abditios, and the President is very well
satintiod to have him there. HAL.
Making Glass Eyes.
{From the American Artisan.]
It is asserted that thero aro in this city at least
seven thousand peoplo who wear false eyes. Thero
aro two or three places there where falso oyes aro
mado and inserted. One house informs tho public
thai "persons dopiivod of an oyo can liavo this de?
formity remedied by tho inset tion of an artificial
one, which moves and looks like tho natural organ.
Nopain when inserted. Patients at a distance
having a brokon oyo, can have anothor ono mado
without calling personally."
Tho manufacture of those oyes is done cntiroly
by hand. A man nits down behind a jot of gas

is simply a thin glass shell, whian io intended to
cover tho stump of tho blind ovo. After being
dipped in water this shell is slipped in place,
being held by tho eyelids. The secret of
imparting motion to it depends upon work?
ing thc glass oyo so that it shall fit tho

effective manner iu which tho plans were carri
out.
At tho confluence of tho Congareo and Water
rivers a narrow neck of land is formod that
known as tho Fork. This is settled by plante
who wero formerly largo slave owners, and wi
havo si nco tho war gono boldly to work on tho ni
system, trusting that timo would nhow lo thc
employees that although thoy wero no longer thc
property yet thoy wero connected by tics whit
Bhonld bo fostered. Knowing that thc harangu
of tho radical fanatics were having an injurioi
offoct on their hearers, tho plantors in tho Fork, i
wo havo already stated, determined on last Satu
day to present to tho freedmen tho opposite sic
of tho question, and leavo them to judgo lor then
selves. A lovel plat in front of tho Fork Churc
was selected, and tho Btind for the speakers erec
ed under tho shado of some wide-spreading tree
Ample space was loft for tho accommodation of tl:
audience, and iu tho distance wero placed tl
tables and paraphernalia for thc preparation of tl:
barbecue. Those woro surrounded by rope
stretched from poles drivon in the ground, wilie
kept tho eager crowd at bay and prevented an
depredation.
Long beforo tho hour appointed tho woods i
tho vicinity of tho church resounded with th
neighing of Bteods and the hum of voices, an
busy hands wero soon engaged in arranging th
platform and tables. A United States flag lin
been brought, and, under tho direction of Mi
JEFFERS, was unfurled and suspended over th
stage between the boughs of the trees. Honcho
and chairs were placod on the platform, and th
invited guests assigned positions. A band c
music was also in attendance, and during (he prep
arations enhvonod tho assembly by their tunos
Among tho guests present woro Gon. SCOTT, AS
sistant Commissioner of the Freedman's Barata
Chaplain M. FRENCH, Mr. REUDEN TOSILINSON
C. M. Wilder, (colored), Deputy United Stato:
Marshal at Columbia, besides a numbe: of tho plant
crs in tho vicinity, citizens of Columbia, and a fer
stn? ngers.
On mo ?ion of Mr. W. W. WHITE, Mr. Jon.'
ADAMS waa callod to tho chair, and tho moctini
opened with pravcr by tho Rev. W W. ADAMS
After a short interval, during which thc bant
playod a few tuncB, General 8coTr vas called 01
to address tho froedmon, and occnfiiod their at?
tention for noarly an hour. His remarks wert
directed chiefly to tho freedmen, bul wero intondet
for both whites and blacks, and vere upon sub?
jects of gcnoral interest. Ho stalod that it wat
his duty, and that of other military officials, tc
dabblo as little in politics as possible, therefore
he would malic no sot speech, but would talk on
thoso points which are interesting tho paopln ol
this country at the present time. In referring to
tho flag that was now waving over him, he said
that he was glad to moot them indcr its foldH,
and though it was the first time ii bad boon un?
furled since 1858 in that locility, ho was
proud to know it was dono -oluntarily. A.s
a soldier he was proud of his flag, hit
particularly when ho remembered that it
was an emblem to the world of a freo people,
and that under tho stars and stripes all men wero
placed on an oqual footing. Ho pioccodod to show
the blighting effect of slavery, and urgod upon the
freedmen tho necessity of educatbn, if thoy wish?
ed to CBcapo the moral bondago that ignorance
entails upon every on?. On the mbject of lands,
he said that it was but natural for the colored man
to desire a homestead, and they mould uso ovoiy
legal means in their power to obtiiti one. Many
thought that it was unjust for . tow persons to
monopolio tho lands; but they vero tho rightful
property of thoso mun, andwoud nover bc ob?
tained by tho freedmen through confiscation. By
adopting a system of equal taxaion, tho prico of
lands now uncultivated might be put no low tbat
an honest, industrious man couldiccumnlato suffi?
cient money to purchase a homes.ead. This plan
of taxation would bo a boaoflt to ill parlies, as it
would tend to improve lands that iro now compar?
atively uaoloss, and thus add to tho riches and
welfare of tho Stato. His speocl was admirably
adapted to his hearers, and was loplcto with good
and wholesomo advico.
Ho was followed by tho Rev, lr. FRENCH, and
as thia gentleman was known in thc commu?
nity only by his reputation, conadorablc anxiety
was Mt regarding his sentiment). His invita?
tion was thought by many an unwise movement,
as ho w.iH gouetally considered a mischief niakor,
and ono who would stir up a spin of antagonism
botwocn tho racos, but this impression was dissi?
pated at tho opening of his speech. From hie
long connection with the Bureau as Chaplain, ho
is thoroughly acquainted with tio nogro cliarac
tor, and his remark? wore at once indera tood. Ho
spoko principally in a colloquial stain, appealing
to the negroos to answer his qucsions by a show
of bauds, and by interesting thom n II?M discourse
probably did far more good than .thor speakers,
He referred to tho emancipatioi from slavery,
and showed that it carno not from man, but God;
drew a picture of slavery and its cons?quences
as opposed to freedom. His ?leech was omi
nontly conservativo, and corhined nothing
that could offend; but some few of his idoas were
oyifjentlv not thoso of his white bearers- For ih
stanco, in referring to the march of SHI?UMAN to
tho ?ea, ho said tbat tho United States Govern?
ment were convinced that they mold be victori?
ous, and tho torch was applied, net with a desire
to lmrrasB and annoy tho people, tot in a spirit of
loving kindii??i?, hoping ju this. we; tp living them
into tho fold. Tho result was all bat tho Govern?
ment could have expected; but .ho motives at?
tributed to it by tho Reverend routh) tn an were
taken cum grano salis.
C. M. Wilder, tho United Stabs Deputy Mar?
shal from Columbia, followod Air FRENCH. His
speech was of a similar oharacitei- urging the col?
ored potpie to obey tho laws and rori their way to
a competency.
Captain ROBERT ADAMS and Jr. REUBEN Toil?
LINSON wore tho two last speakers. Thc first is
a planter in tho neighborhood, arl tho second tho
Suporintcneleqt o? Education of rcodmen in this
Stato. Their speeches were cweorvativc, and
wero well received.
Among tho persons on tho pkt form, were Mr
ROBERTSON, of Columbia ; Rev. Rudolph, a color?
ed missionary, and - ARMSTIUHO, Hie Columbia
martyr. Tho lcttpr waa prepanl to speak, but
the latonera of tho hour, and tho loairo of Gcnoral
SCOTT and others to tako the Camion tram, caused
an adjournment from tho reston to tho table,
and tlic meeting was dismissed ty a prayer from
Chaplain FRENCH,
Tho tables were arranged in a hollow square,
and were supplied at intervals wth slices of bread
and barbecue meat. As the crovd was too large
to be accommodated at one timothey were served
by relays, and several sepiais roeei vee! their
rations in this way until tho nunber ol thei.se not
vet supplied bael greatly dihinishod. At Lhii
juncture, Mr. W. \V. WHITE, tl e Chairman of tho
Committee, mounted the table aid made tho must
effective (pooch of tho day. After expatiating
on the quality and quantity olshe provisions fur-;
nished, anti tlni disposition malo of wem, ho gave
tho command to cut the ropa, enter thc arena,
and then each man for himself and God for you
all. This command was uteraly obeyed, tor tho
crowd rushed i i with such a vim that the tables
went before thom and tho food was thrown some
distanoe in tho dirt. With thi? exception, the day
passed quietly, and the large iudier.ee disp . rsc cl
to their homes without any demonstrations. The
meeting was, in every respect,i success, and tho
conservative doctrines that w sc advanced hythe
speakers gave general satisfaction. It is lo be
hoped that this is but ono of nuny similar gather?
ings that will result in cirivinr tho radical emis?
saries from tho State.

OBITUARY.
"Dust 'thou art and to dust shalt thou return" is the
Divine announcement to thu human family, which, soon?
er or later, must meet us all. This heavenly declaration
was again verified by the yawning gulf of Death having
claimed as his victim an affectionate father, a model hus?
band, and a bright luminary of Israel's faith.
Mr. JOSLVH BLANK is no moro, his earthly career
having terminated in this city on tho 3d of July, 1867.
Conscious that mortality could no longer hold immor?
tality, he resigned bimsolf to tho will of his Creator, at
whoso call he shook off las tenement of clay, to bo borne
to eternal rest. Satisfied of hiving fulfilled the holy mis?
sion of his sacred faith, and placing implicit confidence
in tho mer..;- ot Israel's God, ho parted in full expecta?
tion of that glorious reward promised to the good and
true, bearing in mind thc words ot tho wise kings: "Man
gonth to bis long home, and the mourners go about the
streets." Wo offer our sincere and hean felt condolence
to tho bereaved widow and nilli to, 1 family, the mourners
of his untimely cm), praying the Father of widows and
orphans to take them under his omnipotent caro and
gracious protection.
Mr. BLASK was a native of Gallicia, Austrian Poland,
aged 47 years. May his memory be perpetuated among
Ids co-roliglonirtts. and his immortal soul having soared
to tho 'Hoing from whence it sprung, there rcccivo its
heavenly portion allotted to tho faithful in Ufe.
