The death ot any man who ban achieved honor- able dlotincUoii In his Une ot llle mtiat be ra- gBTdod no a common mlatortnne. It snatten compomtivoly UtUe what ehnpe genlos aunmee— whether dlapUyloK Itself In art, Illeiatnre, states- manship or wartore, lis loss Is to be deplored bj the world at large. Not music alone snffered when Uozsrt died, nor art when Michael Angelo bresUied his last. Oenlus has no naUonalltr, and lor this reason Its loss affects all mon. The civilized world, andnotOermany alone, monmed the death ot Ooothe, Just as all the world, and not Fnmoe alone, will raonm tor Victor Hugo. Oe- nlos. In whatever form It manUesls Itselt, Is a gen- eral bleaalne: so Its loss Is a general misfortune. The Cuppeb this week is csUed upon to chron- icle the death ot an old and esteemed member ot tbe theoDlOBl proleselon—one who bad been long Identified with the American stage, and who bad won distinguished honors both at home and abroad. Hr. Davenport leaves a name which will be long cherished, not only becanse at his trltunphs In art, but also becanse ot his blame- leas lite. It is not our purpose. In this ooimec- Uon, to sketch the career ot the dead actor. In another colnmn will be found a thorough ac- count ot his lite, troin whleh the reader will be able to form bis owni eatlmats ot DaTenport's proteaslonal standing. While, tbeietoie, we lesva to othan the task ot determining his position In art, we cannot retrain trom paring a trib- ute, humble though It be, to the character ot the man who has passed trom our midst. Ur. DaTenpori wis a true trlendi a desirable com' panlon. and an upright citizen. -He was thor- onghij conscientious, both In his art and In his deaUngs wllh others. To this txsit, more, per- haps, than to onT other, was due tbe sooeoes which crowned his etrorta. WhateTer he under- took ha did with all the power he pcaseoaed. Nothing was too trivial to be alighted. He worked laboriously during the earlier days ot his career, and in s meaautv be reaped the rewanl which comes ot honest and persistent effort. The friends he made were lasting ones. His success as an actor was not sudden, nor was it al- ways uninterrupted. Uke other men, he met with the reverses of fortune, as well as Its smllee; but whether In adversity or prosperity he clung fast to the golden maxim ot his lite, whleh was to do well whatsoever his hands found to do. It was, perhaps, unfortunate for Ur. Davenport's tame that his talents were ot so dlverslded a nature. But It si>eaks volumes In his praise that. In turning tbe sharp aagles be did, he never once alighted the work which for the time engaged his attention. The talents en- trusted to his care were hlddeu under no napkin ot Indolence, nor burled In any slough ot vice. They were put to the best possible ose, and they returned abundant Interest. Now that he lies dead, the many good qualities ot E. Ii. Davenport will be remembered by all who knew him. A sincere, earnest, honorable man, loving his art and treading always In the path ot duty, he leaves behind a memory bright with professional triumphs and fragrant with gtx>d deeds. It wonld seem that the American stage Is called upon to mourn almost simultaneously the loss ot a number ot Ms old and dlatingolsbed toUowen. Benedict De Bar's death, which preceded that ot Davenport by a tew days only. Is to be deplored none the lees deeply becatue It was expected. Hr. De'Bar was a tepreeentatlvs ot the old school ot actors, which bos wellnlgh poaeed away. Like Davenport, he had won his spurs by the dint of bard work. He began at tbe foot ot tbe tedder, and m<|pnt<xmowly. jievei; two runnds at g Ume. Iran'd the prae'nt knew htm, and. knowing Um, they appreciated hira. Ben De Bar—for In any more precise form his name eounds uimatoral—vras a warm favor- Its both belore and behind the footUghta. A reference to Tbb Clippeb's biography ot him will ahow that his career was a dlveralOed one. If, OS a director ot theatres, he suffered some re- verses, he gained a goodly share ot success. He was a clover actor, s capable manager, and a reliable man. His life and character may be studied with proOt by the younger members ot the prafesaloD, aod especially by those who aro overanxious to snatch the crown before they hare BOhooIed themsolves to bear the cross. It Is to be admitted that.of most arts, the actor's brings the least enduring tome. Even the giants ot the English stage In the golden era ot the Sld- dons are known to tho great mass ot the people only by name. Their strong points, their favorite characters, their peculiarities and their distinc- tive tmlts are already torgotton. We cannot hope that either Davenport or De Bar will be very long remembered In this bustling, torgettul age. Tet their loss Is a common loes to humanity; and to those who knew them best, who held them dear- est, their memoTlee will remain forever precious. assAT coMPKmiox between the old broad- gauge and new narrow-gauge railroad lines from Philadelphia ta Atlantic City.

Af terwords he became a pointer and glazier, and at tbat trade be worked uutll 1833. In the follow- ing year he was converted to Mormonism by Samuel H. Smith, brother ot the famous Joe Smith, who, like Samuel, was about ISM murder- ed by a mob in Nauvoo, 111. Joe Smith was tbe founder ot Mormonism and tbe expounder of the •■Mormon Bible," which purported to hove bad on ancient and more than earthly origin, but which there 18 reason to believe was nothing mora than a romance written In Ohio by tbe Bev. Solomon Spauldlng. thenoutof the ministry and running a small iron foundry. He wrote it for his amuse- ment, and In the BlbUeal strain. It vras at a time when so many mounds were discovered at the West, and Dr. Spauldlng, taking this fact as a cue to the title, called bu romance "Manuacrlpt Found." It professed to be a history ot ancient America. It was never publlshsd, but Dr. Spauldmg frequently read It to his nelgbliore, among wbom wore Joe Smith and Sidney RIgdon. and Smith on one occasion. It Is alleged, borrowed it tor a week or so. AtMut thirty ysan ago the Doctor's widow loaned It to a atzanger wboee proteeaed object waa to expose Mormonism, and she never saw the HS. again.

From Klrtland tbeBalnts moved to Independence, Ho., and trom there they went to Nauvoo. From Nauvoo Brigbam blmsslt went to England to make convene, ar- riving at Liverpool on April S. 1810.

While ho was temporarily In Boston, the Nauvoo Blot occurred, and Sidney RIgdon proclaimed himself president after tbe murder ot Smith. Returning to Nauvoo, Brigham deposed and cursed RIgdon, and eventually led the bond in search of newquar- tere, which, after repeated hardships and many deaths by the wayaldo, tliuy tuund In Salt Lake, where In 1818 he proclaimed hlmsoif "Prophet, Seer, Bovelator and President of tbo Mormon Peo- ple." In September of 1850 tbo territorial govern- ment ot Utah was catabllehed by the United States authorities, and President FlUmoro appointed Brigham Its Governor tor tour yean, to which, altera brief Interregnum, he was reappointed by Presldont Pierce.
