Grant’s last lllness, the follow- irg facta In relatlon to the deaths of for- mer presidents will no doubt be found to be of general Interest: Gen. Washington, the first president, took cold durlng a five hours' ride over his plantation on the 12th of December, 1779, durlng the last two hours of which he was exposed to a severe storm of snow, hall and raln. The cold developed {teelf next evening, when he was very hoatse, but he made light of it. *'I never take anything for a cold,” he sald; *‘let 1t go as it came.” At 2 next morning he awakened his wife, but wounld not let her rise to send for a physlclan lest the Iatter shonld take cold, When Wash- ington’s secretary was called at daybreak he founa him breathing with difficulty. Physlcians were sent for, and mesnwhile ho was bled and a gargle was prepared, but on attempting to use it he was con- vulsed and nesrly suffocated. The reme- dlea of the physiclans were also without avall, and at 4:30 p. m, ho sent hls wife for his two wills, and had her destroy one and inotrusted the other to her keeplng, glving her inetructlons as to his letters, papers and accounts Between five and slx, when asslated to alt up, he said fo the physiclans, *‘I teel I am gelog, I thank you for your atten- tioos, but I pray you to take no more trouble about me, let mo go off quletly— I can not last lorg.” Further remedles wero trled without avell in tho evening. “About ten,” writes hin recrctary, ‘*ho made soveral attempts to epeak to me before ke could effect 15, At length he enid: ‘I am just golrg; have me de- cently burl A, aud do not let my body be put into th .2u't In lers than three dsys after I am doaa.

Ho then looked at me agaln and said. ‘Do you understand me? 1 replied, ‘Yes." “Tis well,’ eald he, About ten minotes before ho ex— plred (shich was between ten and cleven o'clock) his breathing became cssler. Heo Liy quictly; he withdrew his hand from mine and felt his own pulse. I eaw his countenance chavge, and spoko to Dr. Cralk, who came to his bedelde. Tha general’a hand fell from his wrlst; I took it in mine and preseed it to my bosom, Dr. Oraik put his bands over his eyes and ho explred without a struggle or a sigh,” The body was buried on the 18:b, & echooner being etatloned off Alexandrla to fire minute guns while the procession moved from the housa to the vaalt, The troops, horse and foot, led the way; then cisme four of the clergy; then Washingtyn's horee with his sacdle, hol. sters and platols, led by two grooms in black; thenthe body, borne by the ma- sonic order (of which he was a member), and officers, followed by the famlly and several old frlends, and the corporation of Alexandria. At the tomb the Rev. Mr. Davls read the funeral service and delivered a brief address,after which the body was deposlted in the vault with ma— sonic cercmonles.

Besides the large pork and beef house erected for ammond & Co., other dealers have com- menced the erection of similar institutions and still others are contemplated for the near future. Several dwellings have been built and twenty or thirty are now building. Employment is now furnished to about one hundred and fifty families, and conservative estimates place the figure at eight hundred to one thousand families that will find ems ployment there a year hence. =~ This offers great inducements to laboring men to secure homes now while they are cheap. Specula- tors will also find it to their advantage to buy at present prices. The company have made no change from the original prices, but some parties who first purchased lots have resold them atsplendid profits, in some cases at double the purchase price. If in so short a ime handsome profits are made, what will be the result when everything is fully devel- oped ? In the few other cities that are favor- ed with a first class cattle market, fortunes have been made by investors in real estate, and the same is certain to follow in South Omaha. While the whole city of Omaha will be greatly benefitted by the growth and development of the cattle interest, South Omaha lots will enhance in value more ra- pidly than any other by reason of the prox imity to the works.
