ELECTRIC LIGHT, TJie New York Herald, of the 21st: announces that, at last, unison has perfected his electrio lamp. Mr, Edison has been for many months craed in the solution 01 the. eiec trie light problem. From time to time it has been given out tnas bo had, at least in theory, arrived at a practical conclusion of his labors.

Several of the public places, and one of the great avenues cf were lighted by It was csed with good effect in the Uip 'podrome'' at Paris and at the Madison SqnareGarden in New York. It served to light the Thames Embankment in London, and was adopted in many factories in England and in this But the method employed was still the method which it was Mr. Edison's task to improve, or to supessede.

It was unreasonable to expect a sudden success 'at his i .1 It was scarcely probable that, in a few short months, he should be able to overcome obstacles which were sup I posed to inhere in the laws of elec tricity, and that he should in a year solve a problem which had been nn 6uccessully attacked by all the great electricions of the last loxtj years.

An 'i tamer filed recently at ii, LlouJ poieoniog cnsel by the a rco feraaie titer, liia body was "Miss Eloper, the owner of Tur nert 'Elave has bequeathed that fanous 1 picture to" a nephew," This paragraph going the rounds of the press. The picture referred to has been, we beueve, for some tiina on exhibition in a Boston gallery It has not been what may be call popular" in this country, in pit of elaborate praise which II ask in1 has bestowed on it.

Kuskin says that the the Slave Ship is the noblest ever painted by inan. Per haps it once was, but now it seems to to be nothing but an' kicongruoui mass 1 of meaningless color, which has lost its original tone. The subject of the painting is indicated by some repulsive looking, arms and 1 legs, with manacles on them, floating impossibly on the; waters, and by a ship laboring in a confused jumble of sky and wave. If Turner's fame rested on this painting alone he would' be forgotten in ten years. Fortunately, in the Turner rooms of the National Gallery in London, and in the museums, there are' magnifi cent specimens of this great master's work, both in oil color and water color specimens, ''which justify; his fame as the greatest artist, in landscape that England ever produced 4 the greatest, perhaps with the possible exception of Claude Lorraine, that the world ever saw.

Strange to say his water colors, which were painted, during, 'the earlier part of his career, have stood the test of time better than Ms oil and his earlier works in oil, such as his Venetian scenes, seem to be more enduring than ids later productions, in which he has carried exaggeration of form and color to an absurd excess. Turner's water colors haye not received the attention that they deserve. They are comparative ly neglected. And yet they did more than the works: of all other artists combined to form that exquisite school of art. which culminated in modern English water color painting, and 'which has of lata years been rivaled, perhaps excelled, by Spanish school.

Even now Turner's water colors will take rank with the very best productions of modern artists artists who have had the advantage of studying the methods and the works of Turner himself and his brother wateT colorists, who? found water color art a dreary and barren waste and left a fertile and bloom ing garden.

at 8:30 A.M., A.B. MYKR3, a native of Alsace, Oer many. When a good man passes from the walks of life on this earth, however quiet and retired he may have been, the wnole community suffers a loss. Such a man was he whose death wo here record. For many years a merchant of this city.

a law abiding cltlien, a faithful friend, a kind husband and loving father, in every position he commanded the respect, esteem and love of those around him. His Intercourse with his fellow men was an example of integrity and honor, while with his family he displayed all those qualities that make happy and sacred the home circle. A fond wife weeps over the loss of one who was always a loving and sympathising companion children mourn for him who was an Impartial and indulgent father; a large circle of friends and relatives wiU miss hi cheerful words and kind actions. 5 He has gone to reap the reward of an upright and well spent life, and while our hearts are bowed down in sorrow, we feel that "our loss has been his gain."

Eliza Ellial how shall we mourn you I wife danghlkr sister friend 1 Upon whom shall we lean when dependent I to whom shall we go when distressed 1 As wife, Hha stay, th prop, the earthly all as loving; quick hearted, self sacrificing. As sister, tender and devoted, giving the love of many in one more than the unity of sisters la severed in this broken tie! As friend! Oh, KUsa, Ellxal shaU the haunts of our girlhood know ns no move together In these riper years 1 The one whose tender band has so often pointed out to me Sho light abed In the dark valley, whither my loved ones have hastened, hath herself entered Its shadows.

Who now may discern for me thaA hidden radiance who from afar catch a ghmpse of the light that broke upon her as she passed out of its dark portals! vr Lost in the individuality of each great grief, we at first forget how widely her loss Is felt. Near and dear relatives, close friends, here and tn lands beyond the sea, mourn for her. Beloved sssociates orphans, bereft again In the loss of her they loved so well the meetings at the home, the Sabbath school, the thousand things that come np every day. Just as they used to do, only she is not of them or in them. Eliza! Elisat beautiful in Ufa, and beautiful in death! It we might touch your hand, or meet your hps, or pnt our arms about yon as wo did of old! And so bulk of her weakness, a sleep fell upon her, and In it she passed away.
