good men, before our convention, and got
himself pslmed upon us as a candidate. We

THE DEATH OF Mr.. STEVENS.

Although the condition OF Mr. Stevens has
been such for months that his death was an
event to be looked for at any moment the
snock that the snnounceme Mt caused this morn
ing that he had passed from earth indicates
unmisiakably-if the evidence were wanting
the remarkable hold he has had upon the pub
lie mind. For many years he has been the
central figure IN Congress, as he was pre-
yiously amongst the distinguished public
men Of his own State. Bold to audacity fertile
IN resources, Of fearless frankness, md irape
rioas will with great powers of mind al WAYS
al command, he was born leader The public
have seen with wonder his Tremendous power
OF will, enabling him to triumph over the
seyerest PHI steal Infirmities, and despite ,hes,
drawbacks, TO assume and maintain the leader
ship In Congress during the most exciting and
trouoious periods of American history. He
VIII be mourned throughout the country as
a great party leader and public man, but
mere tears Of special regret Will fall to the
memory OF one who, in his public course. was
always large-minded and generous towards
the people Of the District No considerations of
narrow minded parsimony ever swayed him
TO oppose the appropriations necessary
TO carry on great public Improvements for
the national city, and, indeed. his warm
and persistent advocacy could always
be counted upon for any great measure
for the development of the country.
HIS generous championship Of what he be-
heved to be right and just regardless of party
considerations was shown by his earnest but
ineGectual efforts To secure adequate conpen-
sation for the hard-workeo and poorly paid
Department employees. No tribute to his
memory will be more sincere than that given
the Department clerks Of Washington, to
one W ho devoted almost the last hours OF his
public life 10 their service

full if there is any power to stop its progress.
The Herald also puts cut a theory, calculated
to rather startle It's business readers, that this
popular impulse or revolutisl is to result in
repudiauon Of the war debt. Revolutions,
says the Herald, always repudiate the debts of
civil war. Such repudiation is the basis of
compromise, for neither one side nor the
other will consent to repay money Dor.

confusion ensued. Many persons ran OH, and
the negro who threw the rock was supposed to

wound. He was taken to the station house and
