duties Of that distinguished position, with
rare ability for eight years. In the spring
CT 1865, he was thrown from his carriage,
and his arm and jaw broken. While thus
crippled, on the fatal 18th of April, he
was attacked in his bed by Lewis Payne,
one of Wilkes Booths accomplices. and
severely wounded in the face and neck
with a knlfe-his son Frederick received
broken skull from the same desperate.
The great mistake Of Mr.. Stewards po-
lltical life was his support of President
Johnson in opposition to the reconstruc-
ton policy of Congress. After the cleo
ton OF President Grant, Mr.. Seward re.
tired to private life, made an extended
tour around the world, and was engaged
in preparing his autobiography for pub
lication at the time of his death.
Mr.. Stewards last public utterance was
in letter to r. P. johnson, Esq, of San
Francisco, which will be found in this
paper. In that letter he says: II haze
seen no sufficient reason to soitbar0so mine
from She support Of the principles and poll
cy aOhtch carried To country safely through
the clciL conJ9'ct, or from the party organi-
zatson and candidates s0ho represent them"
1t will thus be seen that Mr.. SEWARD to
the last, remained true to the principles,
of the great Republican party. ,...-..
MI. SEWARD was not only statesman
and politician, but his published works
Dear ample testimony as to his general
scholarship and literary attainments. His
orations on John Quincy Adams, O'Con-
mel and Lafayette, and his numerous lit
erary addresses before colleges and soci-
cites, are fine productions In 1849. he
wrote the life of John Quincy Adams
which was popular work. He has writ
ten q biography of De Witt Clinton. The
Works of WILLIAM II. SEWARD" in 4
volumes, include his orations, addresses,
&c. We hopeehe has left prepared for
publications. work on his life and travels.
If SO lt,cannot fail to, be one of deep in
terest. -....t
But we can dwell no longer upon the
life of this truly great man. His labsrs
have been immense, and of value to the
county. Errors he has committed, but
the good he has done by far oYerbalance
the evil and his name will live in history
as enc of the shining lights of the age in
which he moved. The death of such a
man is truly national loss and the peo-
pie of this great nation will sincerely
mourn the death of the statesman they
have SO long respected-WILLIAAt H.
