FERNANDO WOOD.

I can not help thinking that if
!Oharies Dickens were to write anoth-
er American novel, and were to intro
dice American politicians into its
chapters, he would select Fernando
w ood for one of them; And simply
because he is such a peculiar, sort of
persona perfect riddle to the ordi-
dinary newspaper correspondent, in
whose tread mill life there is little
time for the study,of such a character,
5even if the ability for its portrayal
were there; but an ''ineXhaustible bot
tle' for illustration and. development
inatlea hands of the great novelist. -
There is something about him which
1ieertainly can not describe, but can
only write about in a jerky and unsat-
isfactory sort of way. First, there is
the man himself, as be sits in his seat
or stands on the'foor. Straight as q
fishing-pole and, / was about to say,
nearly as tall; but the reader will at
once perceive that that depends very
much upon the fishing pole; always
dressed in the neatsst of black trow
sers, and the neatest .of black coats,
with the shiningest of velvet collars
never by any possibility letting US
know whether he wears waistcoat or
not, but giving slight assurance of a
shirt in the exhibition of SO much of
it as can struggle into notice above the
third or fourth button of his outer
broadcloth. Whether he looks so
straight because he is so thin, or looks
so thin because he is so straight, l
shall not attempt to say, but when to

abused and often misappiied, in the
sense Of being thrown away upon per-
sons whose '.self:make" is no make at

which kept them there. A hundred

IMPORTANT DECISIoN.-M the t.
3. District Court of Vermont, Judge
Woodruff lately gave a decision as
to the conStitutionalitN of the pro
hibitory liquor law of this state.
There are several eases brought be.
fore the court Tor decision. which
rc.atlirmcd the conStitutiOnaIity of
the law and decided adversely to the
claims of It's oppoScrs. Officers who
enforce the law are backed by the
courts, therefore, Express compan
les and common carriers viii net be
protected in bringing liquor into
the state in confirmation Of the
law. We Ire glad to see this de
c!sion, as it will have a tendency
10 set at res the controversy that
has arisen at intervals relative to
the conSliiutionality of the act.
We believe it has always been suS
tanned before every court where il
has been compelled to put in an APP

DEATH OF GEN. R0BER? l.. LEE

DEATH OF GEN. ROBER? l.. LEE.
"A Lexington Va, dispatch of the
18th inst annOnccs that General
RObert L. Lee died at half past three
that morning, Of congestion of the
brain, and was aged 81 years and
months. A Richmond dispatch of
the 18th says: "Richmond presents
To-day sceue of mourning seldom
witnessed in this generation. The
stores and public buildings are all
closed, and the bells in all pants OF
the city are to''ing. On many doors
are pictures and photographs dra-
ped in Grape, with evcrgcen."
The facts in the life of Gen. Lee
are so well known that there is no
need to make more than the brief
est alluSion to them. That he was
by all odds the greatest soldier of
tue Contrderacy, there is no doubt.
1t has been stated that he never re.
pented Of rebellion, but he bowed to
the consequence and was IN honor
abe in defeat as he had been cour-
ageOuS in resistance. Siucc the
close of the war Gen. Lee has been
80 manly and upright in all his do
ings that he has won, at least, re-
spect from the North. His treason
was more the result of family Cd
uCation, and the influences under
which he was reared than of person
ai baSeneSs Of character. The au
;umn after the war Gen. Lee was
chosen president of Washington col.
lrgc, at Lexington, Va, and has
since continued in close Application
10 the dntics of the place, and has
taken 10 pant IN public affairs
Gen. Lee was a traitor To his coun
try betraAing that government
which had reared and educated him
it is true, but he has goue to great
er Judge han the American people
and we think the latter will not b
mkind to the memory he has LEI
behind.
