A HEALTHY RIDE.-Everybody knows
that riding in the heated term is good
tning. It's healthy. Promotes digestion,
ana all that sort of thing. Thus thought
Ellen preston. On Saturday she was fined
% for violation OF the ordinances, which
she paid amid solemn protestations to the
Mayor that he would never capture her
again. She went straight from the Mayors
Office to rum shop, and got "as full as
tick" and went to work to raise a row, She
succeeded in her efforts too much, for she
not only raised row, but also officer Kile,
who offered her an escort to the calaboose.
She wouldn't walk, so the officer hailed
swlll cart just then passing, and tumbled
her i'm. There, amid sour swill and slop
iu her laces, jewelry and flowers, she rode
in state to the Sinners Rest. The Mayor
assessed fine of So and costs on her,
which she paid.

THADpKUs STEVENS Is DEAD.

1t is difficult to realize that such man
as Thaddeus Stevens has ceased to be among
the forms of terrestrial life and secular acti-
witty. So instinct was his whole being with
the concerns of the visible and breathing
world, 80 passionately informed with the
hopes and hates, the aims and struggles that
60 on, without ceasing, upon the fretful
scene of human existence bounded by the
earthly horizon, that the mind cannot readily
from the scene, that this remarkable, and
in some sense formidable incarnation of
fierce, unresting, remorseless energy is now
still forever in the sleep of death. There was
something in his nature, as there is in all such
natures, which seemed to defy the subtle
agencies of decay and dissolution. But, in
spite of his defiant and naughty win they con-
auered him. After Pickering for months,
flashing up now and then with preternatural
glow, his vital flame at length fickered out
The name of Thaddeus Stevens no longer des-
ignates one of the most important actors in a
political drama of unsurpassed interest. He
is not now political leader or political op-
ponent be belongs to history, and that will
judge him.
Mr.. Stevens was born in Caledonia county,
Vermont, April 4, 1892. He graduated at
Dartmouth College, and removed to Pennsyl-
yania in 1874. After teaching school for a
brief period he was admitted to the bar, and
practiced law with success and distinction for
a number of years. He was a member of the
Pennsylvania Legislature in 1888, 1884, 1885,
1887 and 1S41 was member of the Constitu-
tlonaI convention in 800" 800 "PP'in'eu
canal commissioner in 1888, and removed to
Lancaster, which continued TO be thereafter
his residence, in 1872 From the Lancaster
district he was elected to the 3lst, 32d, Seth,
3Tth, 3Sth, seth and 40th Congress, where he
persisted in performing the functions of a re-
preventative and political leader and organ.
izer up to the time of his death. During this
period he was successfully Wing, Free
Soiler and Radical Republican.
This is not the place to speak fully and I'M
reservedly of the late political course OF Mr..
Stevens. 1t may be remarked, however, that
thoroughly as Democrats and conservatives
have detested him as a politician, they have
felt towards him a certain respect which no
other Radical of like prominence could COM
mand. Others sought to cover their bad pro-
pensities and cruel designs with some sort OF
hypocritical cant. But he scorned disguise,
and made no effort to seem better than he
was. L
Tine loss to the Radical cause by the death
of Mr.. Stevens is great almost beyond CON-
putation. He was the congressional head OF
the party-its boldest and its shrewdest leader.

The ALABAMA LEGIsLATURE.-Thep purpose
of the Radical Legislature of Alabama in adj
journing to the day before the presidential
election, is not to be mistaken. They feared
to incur additional odium for themselves and
party by passing over the governors veto the
bill authorizing the Legislature to choose
presidential electors and they equally feared
TO abide by the issue of the popular vote for
electors. The result Of these two fears is adj
journment, without action on the governors
veto, to day early enough to admit of their
taking the choice of electors in their own
hands, and yet late enough, as they think, to
prevent the scandalous proceeding from being
known to the detriment of their party in the
North. They viii know by the first of No
yember whether their ticket has any
chance at the ballot box. II it has not, then
they will be prepared to suppress the ballot
box.
