K years « months and l*y». e subject of the above notice was born in the town of Nunda, in this county, and was the youngest son of James Tyrrell, an old ani highly re­ spected citizen of that town. When wc say that Arthur Tyrrell was an un­ exceptionable young man, we do not exagerate, and must say that no re­ marks that we can make will add in the least to the high esteem in which he was held by all who knew him. Strong, robust, of jovial temperament and geuiel manner, he made friends wiherever he went. He had always re­ mained at homo until about three years ago when he went to Ohio to attend school, where he remained four months. He then returned home, where lie remained until about fifteen months ago, when he again went to Alexandria to finish his studies, and from that time until his death re­ mained there, a part of the time teach­ ing, tlie^ Istter of which he was en­ gaged in at the time of his sudden death. The death ot one so young, and whose future was so bright and prom­ ising, isv indeed sad, and the aged father and^iother, brothers and sisters; have the hei^tfelt sympathy of all in this, their de^p affliction. To show in what esteem Arthur wss held by those most in timate with him in his new home, we append a letter from one of the teachers in the Public School at Wen Alexandria, Ohio: There is nothing so sure as death, and with a relentless hand he quite as often strikes those whose character and influence are the greatest and the best. It seems especially so in the short life ot Arthur Tyrrell, a young man who has, for the past two years, either been a student In the Public Schools of West Alexandria, Ohio, or a teacher in one of the schools of the county. He possessed rare ability, and was fast making his way to that eminence of which his relatives and friends could justly be proud. Arthur loved his associates, and with them delighted to be. It Is said that he never tasted strong drink of any kind whatever, and that young men would frequently absuin from t!ie use of it in his presence out of respect for him But Arthur Is no more, the good ex­ ample set by him is «1I that is left to serve as* lie aeon light, to direct others who are left behind to pilgrim, yet a years, through lifes uneaven few journey. He wa« brought here hy Prof. M. C. Tyrrell, au elder brother with whom he made his home while in Ohio. This Ions seems doublvgreat on account of its being the first sus­ tained iu a family of eijfht children, and he the stoutest of tlSein all. While mentally and physically he had few equals, he was, socially, one of the -most jolly and agreeable young men In uii tiie iarid. The parents, the brothers and sister* have the sympathy of the ent.lre community in th|,\ their great bereavement, and none doubts but that "In the hereafter angels may, roll the stone from his grave away."* We also give the following preamble and resolutions passed at the Teachers' Association, held in the couatjr^ where he taught in Ohio, """ At a meeting of the Southern Teachers' Association of Preble Countv Ohio, held at Wc*: Elkton, Feb., 11th, 1883, the loiiowing resolutions were idopted. WHKKKAS: It hss pleased Providence to remove Brother Arthur Tyrrell from us, therefore, J\e$olved; That in his death we. the teachers of Preble County, have lost au honored member; that we deeply re­ gret his untimely death; and that our sincere svmpathv he tendered hi* brother.

About six head of horned stock, twenty-five to thirty hogs, two horses aud three mules were killed outright. .In the^car with the horsei and mules was a boy, fast asleep, who crawled out from the debris when things came to a stand still, rubbing his eyes and inquiring if the train had gone through a bridge.

Wc arc glad to know that Nlies has con­ cluded that single life has less charms than married life, and cordially wet- come him and his fair bride to the ranks of those who are content to "do well" without "doing better," (Read St. Paul.) That their united lives may be ble»sed with inula than the ordinary amount of sunshine, Is the wish of tho subscriber. The Elgin Daify News discourses thus on the case of "The People or Mc- Henry County t» Sauthworthglennon:" Mciienry County is awake and ac­ tive just at present. The past course of Messrs. Southwortli and Glennon has so aroused the press and people of that county and especially the good citizens of Woodstock, that we fear our good friends of the Sentinel are In a fair way to become political orphans should tliey pursue longer the same track o'er which they have strutted in the past. It is a lesson worth learn­ ing that, even when in the ascendencv, man should not attempt to shine too brightly lest, as a natural consequence, he come to griel ami "fall down like a falling star." A public iran or an editor, in order to maintain the dignity of hi* profession and hold the respect of the people, must take a stand of some kind. So long as he oe copies a seat upon the fence he 19 viewed from either »!de with equal feelings or distrust and oftltnes eon tempt. Brother Hurteh, of the Har­ vard Independent, one of the best papers published in northern Illinois, has challenged the jovial edijor of the Sentinel to "come out" and let the anxious public know where he does sm d. One week he pours oil upon the head of one candidate, and the next week sweet tally drips from his pen upon the cranium of another political aspirant. Brother Van Slyke, of the Mcflenry /Va/wifja/er, other wise known to the Republicans of Mcflenry county as the tried and true Ptaindealer, has aluo become anxious aud wants Mr. Southwortli to say where he Is. Up to date he has not descended from the teuce, but occupies a seat upon the top rail and smiles complacently upon those who beseech lilui. Policy, no doubt """ •••Kftt the policy wliicli the old proverb declares Is the best. It is high time that the curtain fell upon this tragical inclined drama. The audience, tin* < ntire public of Mciienry county, can uot stand it to have their feelings thus worked upon. Let the closing aet be a climbing down from the fence by the "two orphans." "Gard" and Glennon, Whichever side of the fence they alight upon will matter but littie, only that it will bring to a close the awful drama and lift a heavy load from the hearts of the spectators P. S.--It is stated that this happy denouncement can not be brought about until Glennon hears from Samuel J., of Gartnercy, his chief counselor in times of dire distress. Wc Will try to wait witli patience. 'The Newt is quite right when It makes the statement that "McHenry County is awake and active" In tha matter referred to. Most Republicans in the County fail to see what Mr. Southwortli or the Sentinel has ever done for the party to earn a fat Gov­ ernment office for both the editors of t.hat sheet. We have heard many thinking men remark that the Sentinel is the weakest paper, with one excep­ tion, in the County, and uot to be com­ pared in political influences to such sour.d sheets as the Mciienry PLAIN- DEALKK and the Harvard Independent. Aud yet, we arc informed, it was through gross misrepresentation of its influence that Mr. Spalding was in­ duced to appoint Mr. Glennon to a position in tiie Chicago Custom House. Again, there is uo getting around Mr. Gienuon's Democratic antecedents and associations and for that reason Ids appointment to a Federal office is a hard pill for old Republicans to swallow. Mciienry County has about 400 Republican ex-soldiers who look witli no favor upon the appointment lo Federal office of a man whose politi­ cal antecedents are unsavory and whose Republicanism is believed to be any­ thing but nound. Those soldiers will * vote as they shot" should the oppor­ tunity ofler to show their resentment' for rewarding with a Government of­ fice one so little entitled to' it as Mr. Glennon. But what exasperates the people of the County more than anything ehe is the wide spreud belief |liat the pro­ curing of tiie ofilce for Mr. Glennon was a corrupt bargain.and sale between John M. and G. S, Southwortli as party of the first part, and Ed Glennon as party of the second part. This is cur­ rently reported, and we have uot yet seen a denial. If it be untrue Messrs. Southwortli and Glennon have a right to stand up and deny it apd bring on their proofs. The nature ot the trans­ action referred to Is thus reported.-- Mr. Glennon has a 500-doIlar Interest in the Sentinel. The Southworihs agreed to procure Glennon his Governuiein. appointment aud secure it to him for a specified time on consideration that he surrender his 9500 interest iu the Sentinel and pay to J. M. Southwortli personally $-00 ca*h for hift*'intluence." That is the pl»in English of the story, if true the Soutiiworth Brothers ap­ pear in the unenviable role of otlice brokers-T-meu who sell their 40 called 'Influence" fur money, or its equiva­ lent. The transaction involves much more tliau the persoual reputation of the men said to have tieeu engaged iu it. it strikes a vital blow at the purity of civil service appointments. If of­ fices are to be bought and sold like commodities of tucrcbaudiso it la high Business i > time that uot only McHenry County, but the whole country 'as well be "awake and active." We have no per­ sonal feeling against Mr.Glennon, but we do strenuously object to haviug the public offices made merchandise. We are thoroughly convinced that Mr. Spalding W HS led into the serious mis­ take of appointing Mr. Glennou by misrepresentation, and that he can make the matter right with tho peo­ ple of Mciienry County only by remov- ' " s W ' f y Nnnda Taxes. ^ The undersigned Collector of Taxes for the towa of Nunda, will be at the following places, at the time designat­ ed, for the purpose of receiving the Taxes cf said town, as assessed for the year 1881.
