Gordon by treachery and numbers
was overwhelmed and the brave
leader was laid low. '.
Gen. Gordon was fifty-two years
old and of small stature. He was a
man of much simplicity and was an
intense enthusiast. He believed in
doing things that to other men ap
peared impossible, perhaps wild and
unreasonable. In the United States

est act of duty of record among all
the splendid acts of the martyrs and
heroes. Even Luther's sublime cou
rage .and splendid boldness when
summoned before the Emperor was
not as great a trial and as pure an act
of trust as we conceive was Gordon's
wonderful ride across the desert on
the dromedary, going as he felt he
was to death among cruel and venge
ful barbarians. The Christian hero
and saint has fallen. As long as men
love the heroic and the courageous;
as long as men shall delight in duty
and respond to the demands of a
high patriotism; as long as men shall
revere the good and great, will this
story of Gordon's life be read with
sympathetic and responsive hearts
and with a kindling admiration. He
made God his trust and duty his
gliding principle. What a lesson for
oil!
THE LOCATION OF THE INDUS
TRIAL SCHOOL.
The Constitution of North Caro
lina has this clause;
"As soon as practicable after the adop
tion of this Constitution, the General As
sembly snail establish and maintain, in
connection with the University, a depart
ment of AgrieuUwre, of Mechanics, of ilfin-
tft, and of Normal Instruction.
'..This is the organic . . law, and from
it there is no appeal. By it it is made
the duty of the Legislature to "es
tablish and maintain" certain col-
leges or schools. But more than this:
the Legislature is not left to ' decide
where certain schools or colleges may
be established. The Constitution is
I specific:' it is to "establish 'and main-

for twenty years. During this time the
number of students has steadily increased
from 72 to 579, and this last number is
more than double what it was in 1880.".
But there are many other schools
of this class all through the North.
The memorial says
"The Worcester Free Institute of In
dustrial Science bad. in 1883, a total en
dowment of about $624,000. with an an
nual income of about f 24,000. The Thir
teen professors were employed. The pro

benefit of the institution which realizes
some $5,000 per annum from this source.
"Tne Uhicaeo Manual Training school
was founded by association of gentlemen
connected with the Commercial Club of
Chicago."
Of one mentioned we have had
some knowledge for a year or two.
It is-the admirable school in our
sister State of Virginia. The me
morial says of it: . -
"The .Miller Manual LaboT School, of
Albemarle county, Va., was richly en
dowed by the will of Samuel Miller, in
which he left instructions that buildings
should be erected for the comfortable ac
commodation of one hundred pupils and
their teachers; and that these pupils, being
residents of the county of Albemarle, shall
be lea, ciotnea ana instructed tree or ex

Iron working running of steam engines,
technical drawing, printing, electrical en
gineering, agriculture, and in the other
scientific and general Btudies usually pur
sued at such schools. Boys cannot remain
in the school afte'rHhey are eighteen years
of age save -in- exceptional t cases, and
parents and guardians must relinquish bold
upon them during the time they shall be re
quired to remain at tne school '
A year or more since the editor of

the Richmond Christian Advocate
gave a most interesting j account of
this school and paid a fitting tribute
to the generous and worthy founder
and benefactor.;

K long time before that . hour the crowd of
spectators remained patiently 10 the corn-
..a viattnra haBtanai, ,n tn eannra
ieats, and in a few moments the galleries
were filled and the steps utilized for rest
ing places. That portion of the gallery
reserved for the families and friends of
Senators and Representatives was occupied
mainly by ladies, while the portion given
up to the general public was almost exclu
sively filled with - gentlemen. The Execu
tive gallery was vacant, , and one diplomat
sat in solitary state, in the- gallery reserved
for the Diplomatic Corps.
Mr. Townsbend offered a resolution pro

Mr. Hewitt, of Ala., made, the point of

of the II 'iie, and must go to the commit-

The Sneaker pro tern (Blackburn) over
ruled the point nf ordr, and the resolution
was adopted 184 to 72.
While tie motion, was under considera
tion, Mr. Sprincer remarked that as this
was the day which let the "Outs" in.no
Democrat should oppose it.
Mr. Follett.from the committee on Ap
propriations', reported back the District of
Columbia Appropriation bill, with Senate
amendments, recommending concurrence
in some and non concurrence in others of
those amendments. The recommendation
was agreed to, and Messrs. Follett, Hutch-
ins and Cannon were appointed conferees.
Mr. Hnrineer. from the committee on
Expenditures in the Department of Justice,
reported a bill relating to the compensation
of Marshals and other United States offi
cials. This is the bill which was incorpo
rated in the last Sundry Civil bill, but
which was stricken therefrom in the Sen
ate. . - . ,
On motion, of Mr. Keifer. the Clerk of
the House was directed to inform the Sen-,
ate that at 13 o'clock the House would be
prepared to receive that body.in conformity
with the provisions of the concurrent reso
lution relating to the counting of the Elec
toral vote.
At a few moments before 12 o'clock the
Speaker pro tern, requested members to clear
the two first rows of seats for the accommo
dation of Senators.
At precisely 12 o'clock the Senate of the
the United States was announced, and
beaded by Mr. Edmunds and the officers of
that body, the Senators filed in and took the
seats assigned them, the President of the
Senate sealing himself by acting Speaker
Blackburn.
Mr. Edmunds, in calling the assembly to'
order, said: "The two Houses of Congress
have met, in pursuance of the Constitution
and laws and a concurrent resolution, for
the purpose of executing the duty required
by the constitution and laws of the nation
of counting the Electoral Vote for Presi
dent and vice President of the United
States for the term commencing on the 4th
of March, 1885. The tellers appointed by
the two Houses will please take their
places."
- Senators Hoar' and Pendleton, and Re
presentatives Clay and Eeifer, having
taken their places at the Clerk s desk, , Mr,
Edmunds said, "the President of the Sen-
ate wil1 Pen the certificates of the several
States in alphabetical order, and now opens
the certificate for the State of Alabama."
He handed to the Chairman of the Tellers
on the part of the 8enate the certificate
from Alabama received by mail, and to the
airman of the Tellera onthe part of the
House of Representatives the certificate re-
reived by messenger,
The certificate was read by Senator Hoar,
who announced ten electoral votes for
Grover Cleveland for President, and ten
electoral votes for Thomas A. Hendricks
for Vice President.
Mr. Sherman asked unanimous consent
that only the operative parts of the certifi
cates be read, the formal parts being in
spected by the tellers. This was agreed to,
and only the statement of the votes cast
was read.
The certificate from Arkansas announced
that seven votes of that State bad been cast
for Cleveland and Hendricks. '
The certificate from California an-,
nounced that the eight votes of that State
had been cast for Blaine and Logan.

to i figuring, for several minutes, Senator
Hoar read and handed the result of their
computation to the presiding officer, who
said: ' t'Mnv.". : : ; ' ' r' J-
"Senators and gentlemen of the House of
Representatives, the tellers have reported
to the presiding officer, ;the state of the
vote, from which it appears that Grover'
Cleveland, of the State of Mew .York; has
received 219 votes for the office of Presi
dent of the United States; that James, G
Blaine, of the State of Maine, has received
182 votes for the same office; that Thomas
A. Hendricks, of the State of Indiana, has
received 219 votes for the office of Vice
President of the United States; that John
A. Logan, of the State of Illinois, has re
ceived 183 votes. for the same office; where
fore, I do declare that Grover Cleveland,
of the State of New York, has received a
majority of the votes of the whole number
of electors appointed, as they appear in the
certificates read, by the tellers, and so ap
pears to have been elected President of the
United States for the four years com
mencing on the 4th day of March, 1885;
and that Thomas A. Hendricks, of the
State of Indiana, has received a
majority of the votes of the whole
number of electors appointed; as they ap
pear in the certificates read by the tellers,
acdso appears to -have been elected Vice
President of the United States for the four
years commencing on the 4th day of March,
1885; and the President of the Senate makes
this declaration only as a public statement,
in the presence of the two Houses of Con
gress, of the contents of the papers opened
and read on this occasion, and not as pos
83ssing any authority or law to declare any
legal conclusion whatever."
Here the immense audience broke into
applause and cheers, which the presiding
officer attempted to suppress, but with
little success.
The Senate at 1.20 then retired to its
Chamber, and the House took ajrecess for
fifteen minutes. . -

Throw our Dinner Away.
Perhaps such advice may seem like a
suggestion of poor economy. But if your
digestive apparatus is out of ordetyou
might as well throw your dinner in the
street as to eat it; for it will do you no
good.. To en joy a square meal, put your
stomach in good order and tone up the
nerves and muscles by the use of Brown's
Iron Bitters. Mr. M. L. Drake, De Land,
Florida, says, "Brown's Iron Bitters will
cure indigestion when physicians fail."
