The Age of Distinguished Men

Although most of us have been ac-
custOmed to speak of Mr.. Greeley as an
old man, yet, says the New York Times
| if we estimate his life by the standard
which often prevails among distinguish
ed men, we are justified in saying that
MIR. Greeley's life came to premature
close. If medical men are right in the
opinion that smoking is injurious, and
that even moderate Indulgence in stim-
ulants tends to shorten life, surely the
absence of those habits in Mr.. Greeley
should have tended to prolong his days.
1t must be remembered that Mr.. Gree
ley was much younger than many men
whose names are associated with his
own in American political history, or
who have been on the stage of public
life during the whole of portion of
his career. Mr.. Seward lived TO the ACE
OF seventy-one, and Mr.. Thurlow Weed
still lives at the age of seventy-five. Mr.
webster was seventy when he died, and
Henry Clay, to whom Mr.. Greeley was
devotedly attached, was seventy-five.
Old Ben Wade enjoys very fair health at
the age of seventy two, Mr.. Chase is
sixty-twO, and Mr.. Sumner is only MIR.
Greeley's age. The late James Gordon
Bennett was seventy-one when he died
and Martin Van Buren, was eighty. The
newly elected Governor of New York,
is older than Mr.. Greeley by thirteen
years.ihai a.f tFat 4@-lsmal ~
If We look to other countries, and
turn to the men who have led very ac-
i've and hard-working lives, we find the
comparison equally striking, NJ. Thicrs
is seventy-live. Lord Brougham lived
to the age of ninety-three-no doubt an
exceptional instance; but the presen.
Premier of England, Mr.. Gladstone, is
sixty-three, and his great opponent, Mr..
Disraeli, is sixty-seven--six years Mr..
Greeley's senior. Palmerston lived to
the age of eighty-one, and the present
chancellor of the EXcheqner, Robert
Lowe, is only Mr.. Greeley-s age, and is
expected to do great deal of hard
night work. to say nothing of his inces-
SAINT attention to Office duties during the
day. MIR. Greeley, then, cannot prop
eriy be described as an old manss

An unusually large assembly OF white and

The impatient crowd manifested so much feel

Mr.. James Butler, colored, however, at the top
of his voice, finally succeeded In arresing the
attention of the audience, and, upon motion,
The doctor was conducted upon the
rostrum by special committee Of excel

the life of the Hon. Horace Greeley to the de-

with uproarious applauses, and the chairman
took his seat amid deafenIng yelIs for Greeley

that Mr.. Greeley, unlike General Grant, the
warrior, would, il elected, carry his sword

There is weeping and walling aud gnashng
of teeth just now among the hungry hangers.
on OF the Blue Ridge Ring, on account Of a
very serious hitch that has occurred in the
long expected issue of Blue Ridge scrip. 1t
seems that an injunction has been obtained by
an attorney bearing the appropriate name OF
Bang, who represents parties holding one mil
lion of the four million fret mortgage bonds
OF the road, endorsed by the State. These
bonds not having been paid, as provided by
the law, the holders have obtained the lnjunc-
ton against the Issue of-the scrip, which they
claim should be par1 to them. AS to what will
be the result of this unexpected procedure
there is said 10 be wide difference OF opinion
between the State fnancIers In New York and
those Identified with the passage of the last
Blue Ridge bill.
A case was heard In the Supreme Court to-
