of Thad Stevens, in the Chicago Journal,
says:
"Thaddeus Stevens is not too great q
kind among men to be clear Of faults. Not
he. A fayorite recreation Of his has been
for twenty years, in Pennsylvania avenue,
to spend an hour quite every evening over
the exciting contest of the faro-table. Re-
cular as clock-work would he bet about
fifty dollars, and though he never seemed
to bet from any desire to gamble in the
spirit Of that nefarious practice, his faro
bank account would foot up annually, on an
average, about as much lost as won.

THE QUESTION IN NUr-sHELL.-The
New York Times says:
when the heat Of party passion has
passed away, sober and rejecting men will
wonder how they could have been betrayed
into such violation Of common sense and
common decency. The senators who will
have to justify themselves TO their own
consciences and at the bar of public Opt
mon will be those who voted for conyic-
ton on this preposterous charge-not those
who voted against it. And every man who
mas any appreciation Of what it is that con-
stitutes the honor and security of the ma
lion will rejoice that the country was
saved the scandal and reproach Of deposing
President under so shallow and barefaced
a pretext as this. We have escaped this
black and lasting stain on our national re-
putation and it is one of the narrowest
escapes any nation has ever made from one
Of the greatest dangers which any nation
mas ever encountered"
