The DEATH OF DIR. PEASE.
1t is with feeling of profound grief that
we announce to our readers this morning an
event which nc DOUBT many Of them have for
some days past been apprehendng, but which
will come as shock upon them and upon
our whole community the death Of the Rev
Dr. Pease. 1t has been generally understood
for nearly week past that there was but slight
hopes Of his recovery and If we may Judge
from the frequent and eager inquiries which,
have during this time been made Of those
who were supposed to have information Of
his condition, seldom has sick-bed bee o en-
crcled with more anxious and sffectionate
sohcitule on the part of all classes in the
community. 1t is now our painful duty to
inform our more distant readers, that after
gradually sinking through the night Of We'd
nesday. he breathed his last at half past nine
O'Clock Thursday morning.
Dr. Pease was born IN Canaan. Conn. Sept.
lst, 1918, and therefore had Just completed
bis iiueth year. His fathers family having
removed to Charlotte, 10 this State. during
bis boy hood, be entered the University in this
place IN the year 1884, aud was gr duated in
1888 -Four years after his graduation he
was elected 20 the Proiessorship of Greek and
Latin, office he held for / 3 wears. On the
death Of President Smith, in 1855 he was
called to the Presidency Of the University. a
post which he es.gned rather more than eight
cen mouths ago, to accept the charge OF the
First Presby yterian Church in Rochester, New
York. He was also for FIVE years = member
Of the Vermont Board OF Education, and for
three years President OF the State Teachers
Association.
DR. Pease's life, though suddenly cut short
just when he mad attained the full ripeness of
bis faculties, was a laborious aud an eminent
y useful one. lie was scholar Of fare ac-
compliments. Every product Of his mind
was characterized by chaste and classic ele-
gance. As critic IN the higher departments
Of literature ancient and modern, he proba-
bly, bad few equals among the scholars Of the
country For the last ten years he had been
gradually concentrating all the powers Of his
finely cultivated mind and all the fruits Of his
study mainly upon one great object-the M
huenciug of mems minds and hearts by divine
truth from the pulpit. We need not inform
our readers that be was an impressive and
powerful preacher, and that short as was his
career ia this department Of labor be was per
mitted TO see himself looked up to as rec
ognzed leader in the great cause to whiohShe
had devoted himself, He was a man who
will be missed not only in this region where
he was mos, intimately known, but every
where throughout, the wide circle over which
his influence extended. We take it for grant
ed that some competent hand will give us a
memorial Of his life worthy of his distinguish
ed reputation aud Of his eminent services.

The military government Of New Orleans
is so much more efficient and economical,
than any previous municipal government, that
the people are delighted With it. General
Shepley, the military governor, recently call
ed together some twenty of the weathiest and
most influential Of the loyal citizens, and ask
ed their opinion to the propriety of order
ing an election Of a city government by the
people. But with one voice they adjured him
to do no such thing. Ne'FnSelore," they
said, have we had upright, safe and eco
nomica city government as since you Yam
KEGS came here. Our streets have been clean
ed ; great lakes of stagnant water, which bred
pestlenoe and disease, have been drained
our police force is perfect, and we. who for
years have not dared to walk through St.
Charles street after nghtfall, are now perfect
ly safe in any part of the city, at any time Of
the day OF night. You have slved forty per
cent. of the yearly expense OF admi nstering
the government and you have saved the
credit of the city by paying $500 900 of over
due OF repudiated debts. For Heavens sake !,
put off an election as long as you can

The Manchester Journal, Of September lst
says: Major Gen. Doubleday arrived in
town on Thursday last. and is stopping at the
Equinox House. In conversation the Gener-
al speaks in the highest terms Of the Vermont
troops-the I'd brigade being as will be re-
membered under his command at Gettysburg.
He thinks they have never had full justice
done them for their achievements on that Jay,
and is willing we should give his opinion Of
their services in repelling the enemy and Sc
curing that important victory. He describes
our lines in the second days fight AS similar
in form to horse shoe, the centre being ad
vanced toward Gettysburg, upon the high
hill on which stands the cemetery, and the
hanks curved to the rear, resting upon two
large hills, the whole occupying the summit
Of a long range Of hills, of less height. Han
cocks corps was formed upon the left centre,
and his own upon the left Of Hancock. The
remainder Of his corps being badly cut up in
the first days engagement, Gen. Doubleday
was obliged to put the % Vermont Brigade
in an exposed position to the front and down
the decliyity, although he was told they were
raw troops and had never seen battle Ir the
afternoon the rebels concentrated a force
upon that portion Of the line. Failing to
make any impression they advanced in column
across the plain directly in front of the Ver-
mont troops, but being warmly received sud
denly wheeled, passed down to their right and
charged upon Hancoek's lines, driving them
in. Gen. Doubleday moved to the assistance
Of Hancock and while he was forming troops
in front Of the enemy, Gen Stannard. whom
he characterizes as an officer of quick eye on
the battlefield, without waiting for orders
hurled his brigade upon the flank and rear OF
the attacking column. They broke and fed
in great disorder. To this prompt action Of
Gen. Stannard and the vigorous charge Of the
Vermont boys, Gen Doubleday attributes the
victory, for if it had not been for that he thinks
the rebels would have completely broken our
lines and compelled the Abandonment Of the
position. This compliment from so distn-
guished an officer, and one so closely connect
ed with the Vermont troops on the battle
field, will be extremely gratifying to the many
who think that the troops from this State
have not had the raise their conduct has
merited.

DEATH OF REV. CALVIN PEASE. y. d.
We record an event which carries sorrow to
many hearts, in the death Of Rev CALvfN PEAsE.
of Rochester, N. Y, which occurred at Buring-
ton, on the morning Of the 18th inst. As scholar,
teacher, and preacher, his equal has been rarely
il ever found among the sons of Vermont and
as pastor, for brief space only aud in a com
munity new 10 him. he had earned the fullest mea-
sure Of respect and love Mr. Pease was a native
of ofConnecticut, but graduate Of the University OF
Vermont. After few years employed in teach
ing, and most Of that time as Principal Of Wash
ington County Grammar School, he was first called
to Proiessorship in the University, aud then to
its Presidency, which he was compelled to resign
in 1861 much to the regret Of the friends of that
institution, because both Of the inadequacy Of the
salary for the support Of his family, and his pref
erence for his profession a preacher Of the gos-
pei. We say preference yet whether as teacher
or preacher, his whole soul and strength were
given to the work. The schools have not had
warmer or an ADLER friend and the State recoeni-
zed his merit by placing him upon the Board Of
Education We look for fit memorial TO his
character and services by competent hand.
Mr.. Pease was born at Canaan, Conn, Aug. y,
1913, and was therefore in his DIST year.

correspondent Of the Cincinnati Gazette,
who recently had an interview with BGutus
j. Clay and Green Clay Smith, gives some in
teresting information as to the course the
Kentucky delegation will pursue in the organ
ization of the next House Of Representatives
The writer says
" Mr. Clay, it seems, was asked during his
short campaign the question whether, under
any circumstances, he would be tempted to
vote for a republican for Speaker. His reply
was destinct and emphatic If his vote was
necessary to the organization of the House,
and its organization on the basis of the war
to suppress the rebellion, he would. Greene
Clay Smith was asked the same question, and
gave substantially the same answer, adding
that under no circumstances would he vote or
affiliate with the peace organization now con-
trolling the democracy of the North. >"
The Cincinnati Commercial has an interest
ing account of Gen Burnside's late campaign,
from which we extract the following 1.-The
East Tennesseeans were so glad to see our
soldiers that they cooked everything they had
aud gave it to them freely, not asking pay,
and apparently not thinking of it. Women
stood by the roadside with pals Of water,
and displayed Union flags. The wonder was
where all the stars and stripes came from
Knoxville was radiant with flags. At point
on the road from Kingston TO Knoxville, six
ty women and girls stood by the roadside
waving Union flags and shouting " Hurrah for
the Union" Old ladies' rushed out of their
houses and wanted to see Gen. Burnside and
shake hands with him, and cried, g Welcome,
welcome General Burnside welcome to East
Tennessee! -
