Mr. James Parton says that a curious circum stance occurred maoy years ago, when a testator In England left 2,000 to a friend, but with the condition that one-half of the sum should be bur ied with him in his coffin. The legatee took ad vice on the matter. "Where is the money now?" asked his friend. "In the hank," was the reply. "All right," said the adviser, "write a check for 1,000 and put it into the old gentleman's coffin, payable to his order." Dean Stanley There ia general sorrow in England oyer the death of Dean Stanley which occurred last Monday from an attack of erysipelas in the head. He was born at Alderley, Cheshire, on the 13th of December, 1815. His father was Dr. Edward Stanley, for thirty-two years rector of Alderley, and afterward Bish op of Norwich. He wa3 sent to tlug by school, where he soon became the favorite pupil of the illustrious Dr. Ar nold, beginning a friendship which terminated only with that great teach er's death. He afterward became his biographer, and in 1844 "The Life of Arnold'' was published, and was con ceded to be one of the best biographies ever written. From Rugby he passed to Oxford University, where he com menced a brilliant career by carrying off a Balliol scholarship and soon after the Newdegate prize for his English poem, "The Gypsies." The next dis tinction he gained was the Ireland scholarship, following it up, in 1838, by a first class in classics. 1&.1S39JM.A& tained the -Latin essay prize andl tliq English essay"5 prize,and the Ellertoni theological prize in 1840. in the same year he was elected a Fellow oT$ni4 versitv College, and for many years after was known as one of the-alslest tutors in Oxford and as one of the pioneers of what was then known as 4 liberalism" in the Church- On his father's death, in 1860, he refused the Deanery of Carlisle, tendered to him by Lord John Russell as a mark of re spect to his father's merits. as a liberal bishop. Having been secretary of the Oxford University Commission, and one ot its guiding spirits, ne was re warded, in 1851, with a canonry at Can terbury. which he held until 1858. Re turning to Oxford he became Regius Professor of .Ecclesiastical History and Canon of Christ Church. In 1860 he was elected a member of the Hebdoma dal Council. He was for many years chaplain to the Prince Consort and in a smilar capacity to the Prince of Wales he accompanied him to the East, pub lishing in 1862 a volume of sermons preached in the Holy Land, with some interesting notes of his tours. He was also examining chaplain to the Bishop of London, and while holding that posi tion he published a pamplet in favor of relaxing subscription to the articles, which he dedicated to the Bishop. In 1864 he was installed as Dean of West minster, and since then he has been conspicuous a3 a churchman of broad and liberal views. His congregation was always a large one and his elo quent discourses attracted much atten? tion.

In the fall of 1878 he came to the United States, landing at New York, and making a rapid tour through the country. He preached several sermons in Boston and Philadelphia, remarkable for their breadth of view and freedom from sectarian bias. Travelling on to Washington he received a warm wel come, as he did also at Richmond, Va. . He had made many friends in this country by hia liberal views. He was the author ot several valuable works and wrote much for tbe reviews. and 4 magazines. : . . - . " , What the Love of Children will Dr. A great lawyer, when yet unknown, one day stood in the court-room and made an eloquent plea before some men of . great legal attainments, and a gen tleman said to him afterward ( "How could you be so jcalm tanng in that august-preserifetf' -Oh,' said Ersfclne, "I felt my children pulling at my skifcts crying for bread," .What streamsjwa you not swifiV what cavern will you not enter, what battle will yod -not fight, what hunger will you not endure for your children ? Your children must have bread though you starve. Your children must be well clothed though you go in rags. You say: "My chil dren shall be educated, though I never had any chance." What to you are weary limbs, and aching head, and hands hardened and callous, if only the welfare of your children can be wrought out by it.

The man claims that he is from Le noir county. Fearful mortality from Heat In clnnatl. Cm- Eive hundred deaths last week in Cincinnati, a city of about 255,000 in habitants, is a terrible exhibit of the fatal effects of heat. A raging plague could nardiy nave done such havoc in six days. Had the city been bombard ed by a beseiging army so great a loss of life would have been remarkable. There was not so much slaughter in the first three months of the war of the re bellion on both sides. A special dispatch from Cincinnati says that to the record of 500 cases of death from the sudden access of high temperature should be added a large number of other deaths which are credited to old age and vari ous diseases but are really due to the excessive heat. The dispatch says : The deadly heat came without warn ing, and did its work with a merciless swiftness that the most fatal epidem ics have rately equalled. Men Were stricken and died while being carried to their homes. Others fell in the streets or at their places of busi ness, and were dead before intelligent assistance could be rendered thera. Bolts of revengeful .lightning, could hardly have done thelx work quicker. sFrom the first warning to the last-com-iing breath the victim was conscious ionly of suffering, and night brought al imost no relief. People died in their the hospital ambulances were Kept running until the hery rage of another sun hroke over the city. Many of those whose circumstances would permit fled to " the; North, hut this number was small, compared to what it would have been had tbe, fear ful mortality been known at the time,. People became gravely apprehensive but it ia only now that the official'1 re port o deaths has been given that they realise the fiery ordeal through which they have passed. It is remembered, too, that many hundreds were severely stricken who escaped death, but will henceforth be particularly sensitive to excessive heat and are prepared for the most obstinate diseases, brain trouble. Prohibition in Dave, Elizabeth City Economist ' , Mr Hooper, one of the Commission ers of Dare county, states that the working of the act of the Legislature forbidding the sale of liquor in Dare county has been : most admirable. Drunkenness is very rare, men are more industrious, and the public sen timent is altogether in ravor or prohi bition. Its effect upon the criminal docket of the court is most marked; indeed there was no ease oa the doeket 4n violation of the eriminal' law.
