John c. Breckenridge and Benedict
ArnnTd

a correspondent of the Cincinnati
Gazette describes the following incident
in the life of join G. Breckenridge:
Soon after the expiration of Mr.. Breek-
inridge's term of Office as Vice President,
and he had returned to his home in Ken
lucky, his State, then wavering between
loyalty and rebellion, he received 8 letter,
upon opening which his countenance be
came as pallid as marble, and his manly
frame quivered as though he was suffer-
ing from an ague fit. What was the ter
rible import Of that letter? What did it
contain TO so utterly overcome him? a
single name, but n of i'll omen it was
the autograph of "B. Arnold The ex-
Vice President unable to conceal his
emotion, in the anguish of his spirit, ex-
claimed, ut is too later and next dsy
escaped to the rebels, so closely pursued
that he left his horse and servant behind.
He is now in weary exile, paying the
penalty of his offenses against his country.

Acommittee sent fromthe Pennsylvania
oil regions to press the reduction Of the
tax on crude petroleum, has reported.
The Report attributes the fsilureto accom-
plish anything tangible as largely owing
to the inattention of Mr.. Culver, member
from tho Venango Co. District adding:
Thus il appears that the producers Of
petroleum in Pennsylvania are not repre-
sented by men from their own vicinity,
not even by men from their own State,
but they are almost exclusively dependent
for the protection of their interests in
Congress upon the courtesy of represents
tives from other States among whom
General James A. Garfield, of Ohio, is
particularly deserving of the gratitude of
every ~inhsbitant Of this section of coun-
try; since whatever prospects there may
be for the repeal Of this burensome tax,
they are due to his faithful and persistent
efforts, and from present Appearances he
Is the only advocate of this measure

does he desire any praise, but the offering

-pAxIELsrEyEss DICKINSON.

In the death of Mr.. Dickinson, we have
lost another of our distinguished public
men. The compeer of Webster, Clay
and Calhoun, of Benton, Everett and
Crittenden, be has followed them 10 the
tomb. and his -nams will take 9 high place
beside theirs in the annals of American
craftsmanship. Since the death of Mr..
/ Everett, only Cass, Dickinson and Dix
have remained of the great men whose
senatorial deeds mads them famous TWEEN
ty years ago,
Mr.. DickinsoA was born in Connecticut,
September 18th, 1900, but has resided II
New York since his boyhood. With lin
tied means of education, by ambition and
| application he acquired q good education,
read law and became q successful attorney
and iurist studied politics and rose to an
exalted place in the popular estimation.
He was State Senator from 1896 to 1870,
| Lieutenant Governor from 1912 to 1874,
and United States Senator from ls45 to
1881. During the latter period he was
among the lesdingminds of a body whose
intellectual power has not been surpassed
in this country. BE was a prominent
Democrat of the s~trictest sect, straightfor-
ward and earnest in carrying out his priu-
eiples, and eEerready to defend them with
a learned pen and eloquent speech.
In 1882, he came very nearly being the
candidate of his party for the Presidency,
and might have been chosen but for his
disinclination to the use of his name IN
der circumstances which he deemed pecu-
liar. From that time until 1851 he was
extensively engaged in the practice of
law, achieving new fame and considerable
wealth in his honorable vocation. He
was engaged in all the tribunals, and not
u~nfrequently before the Supreme Court
at Washington. When the rebellion
broke out in 1861 he Immediately aban-
doned party and became powerful advo-
cate of war, and afterwards gave much OF
his time to earnest labors in behalf of the
Government. he delivered several
speeches and a few exceedingly popular
lectures on the preservation of the Union.
In 1861 he was elected Attorney Gen
eral of New York, and last year was ap-
pointed o. s. District Attorney for South
ern New York. In 1884 be was a leading
candidate for the Vice Presidency, and
but for the influence of Preston King and
one or two others would have been nomi-
mated in the place of Mr.. johnson.
There have been two periods lin 1882 and
1854 when but for the action of two or
three men of his own State, he
zwpuld have been placed in
situation which would have speed
lily made him Chief Magistrate of
the nation. In that position he would
have demeanod himself, as he has de-
meaned himself in less exalted places,
with great dignity, integrity and patriotic
devotion to the country. As a man of
good literary capacities, of fine legal edu-
cation, of distinguished experience and
abilities, of pure motives and patriotism,
he will be mourned by the entire country.
