LAST 6CENE OF ALL"

We yesterday briefly announced the
death Of Senator Foot, and now we have
the following particulars of this sad
event, which has cast a gloom over the
land, and is especially deeply felt by his
associates in Congress. We copy from
letter to the Tribune:
The death of Senator Foot created a
sensation of profound sorrow in the
hearts of his associates in Congress, and
all those who had the pleasure of his
acquaintance. From the beginning of
his last illness, the presentment that it
would prove fatal seemed to take COM
plete possession of the deceased, not
outstanding the fact that up to Tuesday
night his physicians entertained the
most sanguine hopes of his recovery.
Until Monday last, at about noon, there
seemed every reasonable prospect of his
recovery, when he was attacked with q
violent hemorrbage of the bowels.
This subsidiDg, he seemed considers
bly, better until II o. o'clock in the evening
of the same day, when recurrence OF
the hemorrhage took place; from that
time the Senator, although cheerful and
apparently suffering but little, was OBJ.
served by his physicians to be gradually
sinking. Fully cOmprehending his con-
dition, he calmly and cheerfully pro-
ceeded to dictate his last will and tesla
ment, even making suggestions relative
to the construction OF tile monument to
be placed over his remains.
Just previous to his death, he was
visited by Vice President Foster, Sen
ators Grimes and Poland; the latter, his
colleague from Vermont, and several
other members of both Houses. Atabout
o'clock this morning he was again at
tackled with violent hemorrhage, and
from that time rapidly sank until about
8 O'Clock, when dissolution took place.
AIS o'clock this morning, Mr.. Foot
asked his fiiends to raise him on his
pillow and draw aside the window cur
tains that he might view the dome OF
| the Capitol for the last time. While he
lay gazing, he suddenly exclaimed, 81

and it has been long and severe, we
have never been called upon until to-

not cherish it, we offer them our hearty
coincidence upon the verdict rendered
AGAINST their Veracity.

The Farmount (va.,) Vidette, reports
the following to be the present senti-
ments of Gov. Peirpont:
1.-THE Governor is thoroughly recon
structed,' aud candidly admits that con-
ciliation towards rebels is failure. He
made the following declaration, which
we regard as word of political philoso-
ply in nut shell-at the same time it
expresses the Governors position on the
issues before, the people of West Vir-
gina. The Governor said "The great
issue before the people of the United
States is-shall treason be made odious,
or shall treason be made respectable? ?
The late rebels, he said, were doing all
in their power to make it honorable in
order to save themselves and their pos
terity from receiving the brand of eter-
nal infamy. The Copperheads,' he
continued, were also trying to make
treason respectable; for II it is made
OdiOus and dishOnofable On tie pages vi
history, they whosympathized with the
rebellion will share in its disgrace"

Matte had an enemy in the world-ex-
cept the writer, who has written her
heart history. The literary perfections
of the above are scarcely equal to those
of the following: en
Nellie Wentworth, a young lady pos
sessing, like Matte, intellectual qualities
and affable manners as enticing as their
beauty, was the daughter of Matte Lees

sat with Jealous eyes watching the hap

Matte, as she was the recipient Of the
| smiles that Edwin Alton bestowed upon
her-although Nellie received more at
! tention from the sex.
We think we understand this, but are
perhaps, mistaken. 1t is of course rid
ale, and an answer is expected in the
next number. Our solution is, that Mel
lie had beautiful and enticing intellectu-
al qualities, which were more affable in
their manners, than those of Mattie's

CONSUMPTION OF POSTAGE STAMPS
Twenty tuns, or, by superficial meas
urement, forty-eight and half square
miles, of postage stamps have been
used during the year; enough to roof a
large township, with all its houses,
churches, barns, gardens, forests aud
farms or, if you choose to make rib
bon of them, enough to reach nearly
from the equator to either pole, or twice
the length of the Mississippi river. So
that if everybody would be obliging
enough to use the Government stamp on
the envelope itself, the mere omission of
these little extra bits of paper would
tighten the mail-bags by more than
forty thousand pounds, and save in
paper fifteen or twenty thousand dol
lars. The Postmaster General does not
impart this information in so many
words, but he assures us that nearly
three hundred and fifty millions of
stamps have been sold during the year
past, besides nearly forty millions of
stamped envelopes; and a simple cal
culation reduces the story to the more
tangible form we have given it.

A Low BUSINESS, AND ITS CoNsE-
QUENCEs.-We have already noticed the
fact that man calling himself j. R.
Kennedy had been held to bail in the
sum of five hundred dollars, to appear
before the next Court, to answer the
charge of exposing and circulating OBJ
scene prints in this city. The affair is
worthy of more extended notice than
we have heretofore given it.
Some time since store room on Main
street was rented by said Kennedy.
Bills were posted all over the house and
all over our streets promising to do
wondrous things for quarter of dol
lar. Anything in the variety or notion
or household way was to be had for
that trifling sum, and in addition mag
nifcent presents would be distributed
to all purchasers. One of our proml-
nent citizens stopped in to investigate
how matters were conducted and to
learn how n man rould afford TO do so
much for two shillings. AS the result
of his visit, he published a card in
which he denounced the gift enterprise
concern as swindle and warned all to
beware of dealing with it.
Business does not appear to have been
as brisk as it might have been. This
was not very pleasing to the manager
of the concern, and he resorted to
another way of attracting customers.
He passed over the counter, at different
times, obscene pictures, some of which
it is said he sold, but most of which he
gave away. Finally, he "missed his
man." and exhibited these evidences of
his and others deep depravity to q GUS
toner who had no relish for such de-
praving objects. Kennedy YVES arrested,
fined by the city authorities $50 and
costs and held to bail to appear for trial,
at Court.
We hope he will get the full benefit
of the law. To swindle the public is
bad enough; but to corrupt the morals
of community by circulating meretri-
cious prints is fiendish;-it is an evil
dence of depravity that shocks all who
are not utterly lost to all dcccncy and
honor. We have seen "what twenty
five cents will do;' we trust he will
discover what outraged law and decency
can intlict.
We understand that the "dirty rascal
halls from Pittsburg. We hope the re-
port sis unfounded. That city has
enough to contend against without
having any connection with j. K. Ken
nedy.
