Dcafb of Hon. HWiGm Z. R'res.
Hon William c. Rives, one OF our
o,aost ,,ublic men, died at Charlottesville,
virginia. on Sunday the Goth ult, He
was horn in Nelson County, Va, and
odncated at Hampton, Sidney and Will
liam and Mary Colleges; and studied
lou under the direction Of Thomas JEFF
ferson. He began public life in lsl4-15,
~ aid-de- camp in the Virginia volun-
taers. In 1916 he was chosen a member
Of the convention for revising the con-
stitution of Virginia; and in lSl7-l9,
and in 1922 was member Of the State
LEGISLATURE. In 1929 he was sent to
Congress, and continued by successive
elections. member of the House of Re
nresentatives till 1896. He was then
sent minister to France by President
Jackson, and succeeded in negotiating
= very popular treaty with the govern
ment of Louis Philippe, forthe payment
of five millions of dollars, for spoliations
of American commerce by Napoleon's
cruisers On his return to this country
he was Immediately elected in 1882,
senator in Congress but this position
he resigned in 1884, being unwilling to
vote on the L. 5. Bank question as in
structed by the Virginia Legislature; he
supporting President Jackson's meas
ares against that bank. But his con-
stituents showed their appreciation Of
his ability, and their confidence in his
integrity, by returning him to the Us.
Senate in 1885, and again in lS40 po-
sition which he retained about five
wears. In 1S49 he was again sent min
lister to France, by President Taylor,
and remained abroad until 1858; since
which time he has taken but little part
in the public transactions of the times.
Mr.. Rives, in 1861, was one of the
peace commissioners who met at Wash
ington TO confer with President Lin
coin, and with Northern gentlemen.
with a view TO adjust our national diff
culties and prevent civil war The ne
gotiation proving fruitless, Mr.. Rives
went out of the Union with his State:
and was a member of the Provisional
Confederate Congress which met at
Montgomery in December 1862. Mr..
Rives, however, afterward did not take
avery active part i'm the rebellion, doubt
less believing that the war would end
a. il has in the success of the Union
men. For many years past he has been
engaged in writing the life and times of
James Madison, two volumes of which
have been published. The remaining
record of the life of that distinguished
Statesman, it is to be hoped, will soon
find its way into print.

his defeat and death, is Magdala, a
place of considerable strength, but too
small to find place on the usual maps.
As Theodorus had numerous wives,
and as any male child of royal birth
may legally take the throne, it is quite
uncertain who will succeed TO the rule.
Perhaps the English may have some
thing to say in the premises.

SENATOR YATES. - This gentleman
who has for some time past disgraced
himself and his high position by drunk
enness, has written a letter addressed to
the People of the State of Illinois, y
acknowledging as substantial truth the
criticisms passed upon him by the press
of that State. He claims that their state
ments are exaggerated, and apologies
for his bad conduct, without reserve or
defence. He declines positively to re-
sign; but promises to reform at once and
do his duty hereafter, free from the be-
setting sin which has dragged him down.

Items from UOshingtOn.

The Cincinnati Chronicle philosophis-
es after this fashion: while we may
hope for the best-the removal of Mr.
Johnson from the Executive chair, that
peace may be restored to the country
we shall prepare ourselves for different
result, and meet it with such philosophy
as we can command"
The Springfield Mass Republican,
has private information which sustains
the belief that the President will be
eventually convicted:
1--WE are assured that no more than
three Republican Senators are likely,
under any circumstances, to vote for the
President. These are Grimes, of Iowa,
Van Wrinkle, of West Virginia, and
Fowler, of Tennessee. The withdrawal
of these from the Republican vote
against the President still leaves il sew
eral in excess of the number necessary 10
a conviction"
The Herdtd's correspondent exercises
his imagination as follows:
ut seems TO be generally conceded
that ii Wade gets possession of the exc
cutlve patronage for the ten months in
tervening between this time and theneXt
Inauguration, the least he will aim 10
accomplish will be his nomination for
the Nice-Presidency The installation
of Ben. Wade in the Presidential chair
Will, therefore, be the virtual settlement
of the question regarding the Vice-Pres-
idency. Notwithstanding this, it is not
to be supposed that any Senator will per-
init such consideration to bias his vote
on the merits of the impeachment case
1t is understood that Secretary Seward
advised the President not to comply with
the commands of Judge Black after the
articles of Impeachment had been laid
before the Senate in regard to the Alta
Veta case.
The 10 Urlars correspondent SAYS in
view of the possibility of the nomination
of Mr.. COlfaX as Nice-President on the
Grant ticket, there is already some cal
culatiOn as TO the succession to the
Speakership of the House. An eastern
man will undoubtedly be chosen, and
rumor assigns to Mr.. Blaine, of Maine. a
very fair chance for the honor. 1t is
quite well known that Mr.. Blaine will
be supported by many of the oldest and
ablest members Of the House from the
Western and Middle States.
