DEATH OF MRS. CHASE,

Died, on the 18th instant, at her residence
in Cincinnati, Mrs SARA BELLA CHASE, wife of
the Hon. s. p Chase
After several years of suffering from a pull
monary disease, our friend has at last found
rest. We knew her from her childhood, in the
rich promise of early youth, the full maturity

and affectionate, with an intellect moulded by
a loving heart and heart controlled by

Mrs. Chase was the eldest daughter of
James c. Ludlow, of Ludlow Station, Hamil-
ton county, Ohio and Mrs Josephine c. Lud-
low, who were among the earliest settlers of
Cincinnati, and always distinguished for their
active, enlightened philanthropy.
For many years we enjoyed their cordial
friendship, and as we write a thousand tendar
recolections of their household, before Death
entered their dwelling, crowd upon us. First
the parents were stricken down, and we fol-
lowed them to their last resting place. The old
homestead was soon deserted, and the children
became the centres of new circles but Death
has been busy again and again, until at last
our dear friend has fallen, and another home
is made Observation-Disclosures to the survivor, who
has now been thrice smitten by stroke which
each time has left him without helpmeet or

colleague, Mr.. Brodhead Jones of Tennessee
Senators from the North, distinguished for
their submissyeness to slaveholding dictation,
are honored by being placed on several Com
mittees, slaveholding gentlemen of course gen
orally occupying the first places. Senators
from the North, who have stood up manfully
against the aggressions of Slavery are thrust
into inferior positions Thus, Mr.. Hale, who
has had long experience in Congress and
has marked qualifications as working mem
Der, is placed at the tail of two Committees
one on Engrossed Bills the other on Private
Land Claims Charles Sumner, distinguished
for his varied information and fine scholarship
occupies the same rank in the Committee on
Roads and Canals while Mr.. Dodge OF Iowa,
who himself would laugh at the imputation OF
literary tastes or requirements, is a member OF
the Committee on the Library. Mr.. Chase, a
fine scholar, an eminent lawyer, an upright
and a successful politician, to whom the Demo-
cratic party in Ohio at the last election was
indebted for its overwhelming majority, is hon
ored with second place on single commit
tee-that on Revolutionary Claims.
Precisely the same policy is pursued in the
House. Shareholders alone, or with their ad-
herents from the free States, control every I'M
portant committee, without an exception. Take,
for example, the following Committees: Ways
and Means Claims Public Lands, Indian #
fairs, Military Afdirs Nardl Afdirs Foreign
affairs the Chairmen severally are, Houston
of Alabama, Daniel of North Carolina Hall
of Missouri Johnson Of Arkansas, Burt OF
South Carolina, Stanton of Tennessee, Bayly
of Virginia--iour of whom during the last
Congress were among the most violent of the
Slavery men.
Three important Committees, on the District
of Columbia, the Juiiciary and the Territories
have Chairmen from the free States, but they
are men who have never disappointed the ex-
pectations of their slayeholdng friends, viz :
Ficklin of Illinois, McLanahan of Pennsyl-
vania Richardson of Illinois
Now, bear in mind that the Slave States
which are thus represented, contain not more

correspondent may form some idea of the aid
and comfort given to Slavery by the American
Government.
