A Memento of Affection,
The reared (lusband.
Engraved on the feitjr sides of the Marble
sub-base :
"WIHTK." (la front, under tue frontls-ptece.)
"HAMPTOS." (On ttoe pjnttite side of Uxe "Die,"
on main shaft.)
"WHITEST-OWN." (On the right side from the
frontls-piece.) -
"tJALWiiCRY.'' (On thef side from the frontls
ptece.) On the Die," on main shaft, on the right
side from the frontis-ptece :
"The sweet remembrance of the Just,
Shall blossom while they sleep la dust."
It was the rare destiny of Mrs. White, to have ac
companied her Husband on most of his varied Mis
sions and Pubuc Employments. Civil, Naval, Con
sular and Diplomatic:' And it Is consolatory to him
and to her many friends to know, that In all her as
sociations, whether amidst the blandishments of
Offlolat Position abroad, or In the quiet of social life
at home, she ever maintained a high type of refined
womanhood : Loving: and devoted to friends, cour
teous and kindly to au she died as she ever lived, a
gentle, a generous. Christian woman.
On the left hand side of the "Die," from
the frontis-piece :
. " Blessed are the Dead who die In the Lord."
Nurtured and educated In the principles of a strict
morality the Deceased became a Communicant of a
Church in Salisbury at an early age; and her entire
lite, in that relation, was characterized by the 'vir
tues and graces of the "true and earnest Christian.
Her example and her counsels were a blessing to
others; and her pure spirit pass'd from Its pilgrimage
on earth, with the full assurance of at last enjoying
that blissful rest promised to those " who die In the
Lord."
On the reverse side of the " Die"
" Blessed are the pure In heart."
An esteemed Clergyman of the Church, who en
Joyed aa Intimate acquaintance with Mrs. White,
wrote thus after her decease :
" As her lite was gilded o er With the bright sun
shine of that peace which the world cannot give, at
its close she coull hare said. In the words of a favor

Head. On what road. from Salisbury did
Col. (or Gen'l.) Locke live, aud who occu
pies the place now f
E. F. H.
We think it waa on what is known here
as the Lincolutou road, aud that the house
stood on the north side of the road about
six miles from Salisbury. The old house
was removed some 30 or 35 years age, to
a new settlement on the same tract of hand,
aud may yet be seeu. v The spot ofgronud
on which it stood has been and is yet in
cultivation. The property is held by Mr.
Richard H. Cowan of this place.

Proc. Money. "For almost a centnry
after the settlement of America, the En
glish Colonies rated coins in ster
ling money. But the scarcity of money
called for a remedy, and some of the Col
onies attempted to remove the difficulty
bv passim: Laws to raise the value ot tor
eirii coins. This occasioned a Royal
PriKilamatiou bv Queen Ann, 1703, which
fixed the current value of coin in the
Colonies, ut-oue fourth above tlie nominal
value iu sterling money; so that a dollar,
which was tour shilling ami six pence
sterling, passed for six shillings. In N. E.
and Va. this became aud still remains, the
current denomination. But in some of the
colonies various causes raised the nomi
nal value of silver ami gold still higher. Iu
New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Maryland
the dollar w as fixed at seven shillings and
six-pence; iu New York aud North Caro
lina at ei:ht fhiilinirs: iu South Carolina
and Georgia it was four and eight-jeuce
But these were differences merely in uame,
for the real value of the dollar was and is
the same iu nil the States." Webster.

Glasgow, Oct. 15, 178. Failnres aud
rumors of failures havo rilled the air here
to-day, caused by a panic, not only iu the
iron trade (which is most affected by tlie
suspension), but to some extent iu the
StKak Exchange. One failure is positive
ly aunounced namely, R. Wotherspoon,
irou broker, whose liabilities are fixed at
10,000 ($50,000.) It is also kuowu that
a large firm of shipping agents aud tnsur
auce brokers, doing business at Leithaad
having extensive cuunectioiis iu Glasgow,
tn-dav ldaced their runiLs iu the bauds of
this hnn ; e.u-ctedity lc Tr-ry heavy.

day. although some slight improvement
took place after official hours.
Loxiox,.Oct. 15, 188. There, is much
anxiety heie in every branch of trade re
garding impending failures. The market
was much depressed to-day. Two firms
in Manchester and one in London innst
sUHpend-to-iuorrow. The failure mf West
wick Si. Co., spice merchant'1! at No. 23
St. Mary-at-Hill, E. C, and Nos; 12 and
13 Cross lane, E. C, occasioned little cem
nieiir. Their liabilities were only 70,000
(.35O,00O).' k,The East'Iudia trade is con
sidered rotten. So cautious are the banks
that even the best bills are taken vary
cautiously. The Messrs. Gorton, stock
brokers of Manchester, have failed. Their
liabilities are believed 4o be considerable.
Money is very scarce. Call loans have
reached their higjiest rates. AJ1 American
securities were very flat alLday. English
bank shares were also low. Paris is buy
'"U Egyptiau bonds enormously.
Pauis, Oct. 15, 1873. There is nothing
abnormal in the state of tinaucial feeling
here. There is nothing exciting; the mar
ket is a little dull, but that is all. The
failures in Scotland have had little or no
effect here.

Preising' Close to the Wall.
Probably no man ever stood closer to
a wall than did the four miners, who,
workisg Ib the shaft of a Nevada mine,
heard tbe hoisting car break front its fas
tenings far abors their '-heads. They
know that there would be just a foot of
pace between the falling car and the
wall, bat they were not so sure about
their own thickness, and there was no
time for calculation. They made them
selves as flat as possible, and escaped
injury, although the shirt of one was torn
off.

GOOD DIGESTION, j
"Give us this duv our d.iily bread," and rood
medecine to digest itj.is both reverent and hu
man. The human stomach and liver are fruit
ful sources of life's com fori; or, disordeted and
diseased, they tingle misery along every nerre
and through every artery. 1 he roan or woman
with good digestion see beauty as they walk,
ana overcome obstacles they meet in the rout
ine of life, where the dyopeptic sees only gloom
enu Mumble and growl at even imaginary
objects, the world still needs iwo or three
new kinds of medecine before death can be per
fectly abolished; but that m.iny lives have been
prolonged, and many tmf&rer from Liver dis
ease, Dyspepsia and Headache, have been cur
ed by Mekells Hefatine, is no . longer a
doubt. It cures Headache in twenty minutes,
