It crushes all the glory out of the profession, and were it not that an editor can feel that lie has pot only brightened a woman's mind, but Improved her shape, he might as well throw up the sporge in disgust aud retire from the bustle an<l deception. THERE IS a story going the rounds •f the press that an editor who started In Henderson county with fifteen cents Is now worth 9100,000. His accumula­ tion of weal Mi is owing to his frugality strict attention to -business and the fact that an uacie died and left him 990,998. Now, this should encourage all boys to adopt the profession. Does any on* believe that the uncle would bave left him all that money if he had been anything but an editor? No. He wouldn't Jiave died to accommodate any one bat an editor. .' INAL. MKS. Wit. WALSH is visiting with friends in Chicago this week.

WE give below the particulars of the death of B. N. Anderson, one of Chi­ cago^ noblest men; a man universally, beloved and respected by all who.knew him. While driving near Rush Street one front wheel came oft the carriage he was thrown out and the heavy car­ riage capsized in such a manner that be was clogged underneath it nearly two blocks, when some one succeeded In stopping the horse. He was taken up while nearly unconscious aud car­ ried to 32 Rush Street where he was tenderly cared Tor by his wife, and other kind friends, and everything done to alleviate his sufferings. Al­ though conscious all the time and able to converse, his nervous system had re «;eived a severe shock, from which he coqld not recover, and Friday Aug. 7th at 6 p. rn. he quietly passed away. The funeral serrices were conducted &t 32 Rush Street by Rev. Mr. Clark, Presby­ terian minister, assisted by RA'. Joel Wheeler, of McHenry. The floral deco- cration? were very tine. Mr. Ander­ sons firm, McVeigh <& Co., presented a very elegant piece, "Gates Ajar," with white dove; a pillow of pure white flowers with tiie motto ""Rest" inscrib­ ed in purple immortelles, presented by his pliys'ician. Dr. Flemmiug; also a wreath from the same, a beautiful pil­ low from Mr, George to Utile May, with motto, 'Papa," aud several other batrtffnl floral offerings, so IMrihe casket was literally covered by them. A long procession of hacks and car­ riages filled by kind friends followed his remains to Rose Hill to rest beside liia little daughter Mabel. )E. D. W. iFort Hill Precinct-Lake Co.

If you place your claims in iiis hands for collection, you may feel sure that they will be attended to faithfully and with all needed legal ability and skill. It has got so now that it takes about as much legal abili­ ty to take a claim through one of the Washington departments a? to, take a case through the circuit court--and in some cases more. Ilence the necessity for claimants to employ reliable and experienced attorneys if they expect ever to see their claims pushed to a just settlement. We believe Mr. Cow- lin possesses both these qualifications, and consequently have no hesitation In recommending his employment by all interested. Besides, soldiers should stand by oae another. Mr. Cowlln was a soldier and wrecked his Health in the service, and that feeling of "Fraternity and Charity," two of the foundation etonej> of the G. A. R. "which every­ where characterizes the true soldier," oliould na urally Induce as to employ a 6oldier to do our business for us, when we can. Address Mr. Cowlln, at Wood­ stock, III. Tha Richmond correspondent of the Gazette says to the eflect that the sol­ dier boys at Genoa think thit "If they could come down to Richmond In the rain" to ihe Grant Memorial services proposed for a week ago Sunday, when It rained wirhout cessation from morn­ ing till night, the boys bere "might have showed up better." We have taken some pains to talk with the Genoa comrades about this matter,and they .are as much surprised as we were at the slur. In fact, the Genoa bsyB to whom we have talked are so empli trie in the denial of any dissatisfaction with what the Richmond boys did on that occasion, that we have no hesita­ tion in believing the Genoa corres pondent lied--or of telling him so, either. Now he knows just whom and what wc mean, which is much better, we opine, than giving him a wipe by half understood innuendo. If he de­ murs to our opinion of him we think we can get the certificates of the Genoa comrades to back our judgment. If, under the unfortunate combination of circumstances anything in the power of ttie Richmond comrades to do. to show attention and respect to the visiting soldh rs from Genoa and Lake Geneva, have been left undone, every last man of us would feel the deepest regret thereat, but if we did ueglect anything we are not aware of it. We believe we do not boast in claiming that our comrades, among who u are some of the best citizens of Richmond and the surrounding coun­ try, are behind no other people in hospitality or politeness, and we shall never heat; them slandered j|r1tbout resenting It. ______ VVe had the pleasure of attending the Grant Memorial Services at Geneva last Saturday. The rain poured down In torrents and the exercises were therefore held in the Opera House in­ stead of tbe Park, as originally Intend­ ed. Tim exerci>es were txnder the auspices of the G. A. R., who fell In at tljeir hall aud marclied to tlie Opera IIouso where a large audience was already assembled. The hall and stage were beautifully decrfrated with por­ traits of Grant, Garfield. Lincoln and Washington, and a wealth of flowers. Each soldier as he marched past the stage to his seat deposited a boquet upo l a bank of flowers under the pic­ ture of Grant. The speakers werr general* ̂ W*ng of Chicago, Rev. Charles Frazer, of Richmond, and John E. Burton, of Genevi, and the music was furnished by the lfical Cornet Band, a quartette of gentlemen, and a large number of young ladies, curiously enough in the programme ealle I the ' Orion Quar­ tette." The programme was elaborate, ap­ propriate and was well carried out in every particular. The Gran'd Army boys of Geneva showed every courtesy to tho visiting comrades, even to Insisting on our sharing the hospitalities of their tables, a thing none of us will forget. The G. A. R. comrades of Geneva are men of the right stripe and know how to make a visitor feel that he is welcome. The addresses of Messrs. Frazer and Burton were eloquent tributes to the lite and character of Gen. Grant. , As we listened to them we t'elt proud that we could claim the eloquent Frazer as our own, and that the people of Geneva ought to feel the same way In regard to John E, Burtou. Both addresses ought to be published in pamphlet form that they may be preserved to tlie world, and we hope a movement to that end may be made at once. We wish we could say as much of the effort of "General" Strong. Tlie more we think of his address the more we feel convinced, as do also friends with whom we have debated the matter, that he intended to belittle Grant, In­ stead of exalting hi in. He seemed to us to be a man who had a pique against the great General, or a jealousy of his universal and commanding fame. His spirit was that'of an adverse critic and not an eulogist. If he^ould not appear on that platform, on that occasion as an eulogist, he had no business there at all. Wo hope we do not do the man injustice, but oar honest impressions are just what we write, and those Im pressions are shared by more than a dozfen Intelligent men with wlioni we have conversed ou the subject. It wa6 unfortunate that the deluge of rain compelled the abandonment of tho outdoor programme, as It was on such a grand scale and so complete iu all its detads that had it been carried out no city oi its size in the country would have outshone Lake Geneva. Contrary to everybody's prediction that we would have a rainy Sunday every Sunday of this month because the first Sunday was rainy, the 9th, though threatening in the forei>oon„ gave us an afternoon which left little to be desired. And so the J^rant. Memi- orial Services were held in the open air, as advertised, in the beautiful grove of J. V. Aldrlch. An ample stage had been erected, and our ladies dis­ played their usual good taste in Its decoration. It was backed by a very large national flag, draped in mouri:- ing, and on it, In white letters on a black ground was tha sentiment: 'Our Nation Mourns.*' The bass was trim­ med with the national colors. At each corner, on easels, was a large portrait of General Grant, draped in mouridng. A beaullfuj wreith of flowers sur­ mounted one of the easels, ani! at the corner opposite au evergreen sword, while a profusion of flowers in vases and otherwise, were placed in appro priate positions. The people began to arrive at an early hour, even before all the pre para tions were completed, and kept in­ creasing until fullj five hundred were assembled ou the grounds. Tmre was little gi)ess-work auout the number as the committee knew just how many chairs had been brought fr »m the Opera House for toe occasion. At 2 o'clock p. m. the members of the Grand Army ot the Republic and old soldiers assembled at tiie hall of Rich­ mond Post, and led by the Rich nond Cornet Band, marched to the grounds, and took a position directly in front of the stage. There were between 30 and 40 In the rank?. The stage was occupied by the speaker, Rev. Charles Frazer, and the members of his choir. ' • • After an appropriate invocation by Mr.Frazer, the band played aiaappro- priate selection, and the choir sing '•America," the congregation rising to their feet. Then followed a scripture reading and prayer, the choir sang '•Rest, Soldier, Rest," and Mr, Frazer delivered the address. To give an epitome of this address, such as it deserves, would transcend the limits at the writer's disposal, even were he capable of doing it justice. The pen and the type may be able to reproduce words, but cannot give the eloquenr-e of delivery which makes words appeal to the sympathies aud sway the hearts of the hearers Mr. Frazer's address WAS clothed in the choicest language, tlie most vivid and beautiful imaginary, and a thrilling eloquence. The moistened eye and quivering lip told how much his audi­ tors *ere in sympathy with him. His tribute to the soldiers who saved tin- Union was earnest aud high, and evi­ dently came from a full heart. His analysis of the character of Grant and his eulogy upon that character and the grand life now closed ou earth, was subtle, and eloquent. To him the American soldier was the ideal soldier, and Grant the grandest of ihem all. He fought, not for glory or fame, but for priociple. He was wonderful for his reserve force. The depth of his nature and the wealth of his resources had never been fathomed. His charac­ ter was beautiful in his divine rever­ ence for woman and the family tie, as well as for tenderness ft** Soldier, statesman, man, he died re gretted ly a world which had long honored him as one of tbe noblest specimens of humanity. ) After the address ih£ band and choir fayored the audienc^ withjnuslc, the benediction was pronouus&fi, ai|d the Grand Army again fell in antl marched to the Post hall, there to deposit the flag>draped iu mourning for sixty days, in honor of the great and honored comrade dead, ' • ' The members of the Grand Army hereby tender thanks to the Richmond Cornet Band and the Congregational Choir for music, to the ladies for floral and mourning decorations, to Mr. Frazer for his incomparable nddress acd to all others who in so many ways assisted in making the occasion the grand success it was.
