Among the stated number of bona fide
applicants for employment at the Castle
Garden labor exchange are large numbers
not counted. These nonorecoded may be
classed as follows Those who attend
from day to day ostensibly for the pur-
pose of obtaining employment, but who
persistently refuse fair offers, demanding
extrayagant wages, or for some other friv-
olous reasons; and those who drop in at
the Labor Exchange from time to time
asking for clerical appointment, or for
some select situation. and who depart in
disgust when informed that the chances
for such kind of employment are very
scarce, but that their services will be
greatly needed in some other less elevated
position and those who pay hurried
visits at the Office, declining to remain and
to wait for an employer, but offering to
leave their cards, with the request that
they may be notified whenever suitable
place can be found for them and those
who restlessly swarm In and out of the
Labor Exchange, continually importun>
ing its officials for employment, but who
are never at hand when they are wan,

THa LATE Hon, TnApDEus STEVENS

Ina LATE Hon, IHADDEUS STEVENS.
We last week announced the death Of
Hon. Tbaddeus Stevens of Pennsylvania.
He had been for long time i'll, and his
death some months since would not have
been a surprise, Indeed. it seemed for
more than six months rs if his iron will
alone kept the old man alive, and several
times it has been reported that he was at
the point of death.
Mr.. Stevens was a Vcrmontcr by birth,
born in Peacham, Caledonia Co, April
a, 1898, and consequently in his 20 year,
at his death. lie was for a year n SUI
dent in the University of Vermont; but
left that institution and graduated at
Dartmouth in 1914, aud Immediately
removed to Pennsylvania, which State
became hencelcrth his home. He settled
permanently at Lancaster in 1912, lie
was four times elected to the Pennsylva~
MIA Legislature. in 1884, 1885, 1887.
and 1910; and in 1913 was elected to
Congress from the Ninth District He
was reelected two years afterwards TO
the XXXIInd Congress, again to the XX-
XVIII Congress from which time he SER
we'd continuously to the day of his death,
nearly eleven years. His last election to
the XLth Congress was by large
majority over his Democratic opponent
His position as chairman Of the special
committee on Reconstruction has brought
him even more prominently before the
public than ever before, and only his bed
ly infirmitics prevented his taking more
active part than he did, as one of the
managers of the impeachment trial last
spring. lie had been several times chair
man of the Committee of Ways and
Means, and served also on other impor-
tant Committees.
Mr. Stevens abilities as legislature
were undoubted, and less impulsive tenn
permanent would have placed him in the
front rank, but his hcadlong fiery spirit
often carried him further than cool judg-
ment would have decided to be necessary
or prudent His power of invective and
sarcasm was unequalled in Congress, and
friends and foes stood in fear of the Of his
tongue. He was genuine patriot. a
bitter halter cf rebellion and of all sympa-
thzers with it, and probably no Northern
man wa, more hated and ieared-Lincoln
perhaps excepted-by the rebels, who
showed their malice by burning his iron
works in the invasion of Pennsylvania. -
But bis wiIful nature and disregard Of
consequences, or of prudential consdera-
tions, made him an unsafe leader, lie
was often voted down by the House, yet
he was constantly represented by our
opponents as par excellence, the leader and
exponent Of the Republicans party, and
some Of his reckless admi-sions-aa for
instance, the essentially false one, that all
the reconstruction work OF Congress was
"outsde of the Constitution have been
the CHIEF capital of Democratic spouters
and presses, and have undoubtedly done
damage TO the party. Bot we are willing
in his death TO remember only his better
qualities, and to own that Il strong and
great man has departed

Bg War is talked of as possible con-
tngency among our neighbors across
the water. Indeed it seems to be the
general impression that France and
Prussia will soon decide some of their
old grudges by an appeal to arms. We
know of no real foundation for the i'm
preston except the undeniabl lie fact that
that France is getting large armament
and there have been long existing be-
tween the two governments a feeling
which must break out in war, if either
party commits the least indiscretion.

AUGUSTA, Jan. 9.-There has been no report
from the Senatorial Committee on the York
county Senators. 1t is understood that the
committee are agreed upon every point except
the counting of the vote of the town of York,
and on this question there are two members
in favor of disallowing the Democratic vote
and five opposed. 1t is not now decided
whether there will be minority report. The
matter will be reported on tomorrow in full.
Lengthy resolutions on financial matters
were introduced by Mr.. Smell, of Kennebec,
in the Senate, and referred to the Committee
on Federal Relations. These resolutions en-
dorse the recommendation of Mr.. McCulloch
and call upon the Senators and Representa-
tives to act accordingly.
The selection of delegates to represent the
State at large at the Republican National
Convention is one of the questions talked
about. Hon. Samuel e, Spring, Hon. Samuel
Cony, Hon. Hiram Ruggles and Major Gen.
IT, l.. Beal are mentioned, among others, as
suitable representatives
Inc constaoulary question was again before
the House to-day. There was more division
among the Republicans than on anv former
occasion, but the outside indications are that
the question will be met with conciliatorv
spirit, and the final action of both branches
will be against the legislation of last year.
