PAnAx STEVENS. late hour last

PARAN STEVENS. AT late hour last
night there died at his residence, in this
city, one of the oldest and most active
of the peculiarly American order Of
"hotel princes" The American hotol
is an institution which, originating in
the business activity and migratory
habits OF American society, is fast max
ing with these habits the tour of the
world. Within the last twenty years it
has been introduced, with local modificG-
tions in each case, but in each case,
also, with all its OWL substantial features,
into every conspicuous capital Of Eu-
rope. At home during the same period
it has been amazingly ''developed" with
the development OF our social civiliza-
tion: and no one man probably has had
more to do with its progress and i'm
provement than Paran Stevens. MIR.
Stevens first became widely known to
the travelling public, some quarter of q
century ago, as the proprietor of the
Revere House, in Boston, which, under
his management, soon came to be re-
garded aa the "model hotel" of the
Union. He was q man of too much
energy and enterprise. however, to be
contented with one venture, and before
the outbreak Of the civil war he had be-
come the chief working proprietor OF
six or seven of the chief hotels of the
United States. His lines went out from
Boston to Mobile. The Fifth Avenue
Hotel, in New York, and the Continental,
in Philadelphia, were planned and con.
trolied by him. It may be considered a
decisive proof Of his executive ability.
that with all this vast extension Of his
operations as landlord, Mr.. Stevens
prospered steadily. and accumulated q
handsome fortune. which he used
literally in an Intelligent patronage o1
the fine arts and generous hospitality.
During the past year Mr.. Stevens had
been engaged in an enterprise of mo.
ment to New Workers. He had just
completed M apartment house on the
French plan, which, with a few excep
tions in Vienna and Perth, may pro
badly be considered the most complete
experiment Of the kind yet made. Mr..
Stevens in private life was man of kind
and excellent nature, and his death viii
be regretted by considerable circle o
friends. He leaves widow and an only
daughter. r.-New York IVorld

For the t,hmnix.

Will our Mayor and Aldermen grant
the very modest request of the Central
National Bank, to give it 5000 or $500
worth of land MS compensation for
erecting nuisance in the public streets
If they do. there will be general
scramble by holders of real estate for q
similar or greater extension of their
lots. Heretofore all our City Councils
have thought it their duty to prevent
distractions in the streets; but now it is
proposed to offer a reward for them.
Ought not the bank to occupy its own
ground, or buy more, as everybody else
does, instead of asking Council for what
is not theirs to give? And if they can
find no better object for their charity,
would it not be better to pay the bank
the value of the property in money, aud
leave the streets open to all?

These results added give 154 votes
against Grant, under the present, and
172 under the proposed apportionment.
n these tables we have omitted Arkan-
sas. The Radical majority in this State,
at the congressional election in 1870, was
less than 2,400-and this can be easily
overcome. AS Arkansas is entitled to
five votes, as the college now stands, she
will make up the requisite majority of
159. But these are by no meaus the only
States, which can be carried by the De-
mocrats and liberal Reformers. We
have not noticed the great Western
States. which are even now so nearly
divided in sentiment, and in which the
great Reform movement had its birth.
The Radicals may be considered certain

The Pres,den,ial Chances.

As public opinion is being very gene
rally exercised upon the next Presiden-
tial campaign, we have prepared table
of the electoral votes of the different
States. showing how they will probably
be cast in the coming election. The
table is prepared from statistics fur
nished by the Herald Almanac. and may
be relied upon as authentic. Under the
present Congressional apportionment,
the Electoral College consists of 317
votes, of which 159 are necessary for o
choice. The House of Representatives
has proposed new apportionment,
which, if adopted, will give 357 votes,
requiring ITO for choice. The follow
ing number of votes will certainly be
cast against Grant. The first column
contains the vote of each State under
the old apportionment-the second, its
vote under the apportiOn mant ,,roroao1 Z.

ANY one of these States will decide the
election against Grant, and it is very
probable that the Reform Republicans
would be successful even if oil voted for
Grant. Grants majority in Illinois was
10000. in total vote of near 500, 900.
In 1870 the Radicals carried the State by
$4,000. in vote of $4,000. On a
strict party contest the Republic ms
would, doubtless, again be successful.
But Lyman II. Trumbrh, whom his
State has always delighted to honor, has
proclaimed in trumpet tones for reform,
and John W. Palmer, her Chief Magis-
trate, has avowed himself determin ed
enemy OF military usurpation; and under
their banner, Reformers and Democrats
will roll up handsame majority. In
Ohio, q change of 10000 votes, or one
in forty-fve, will throw the whole State
in the hands Of the Reformers. The
victory gained by the Dem ocrats in the
last municipal election in Cincinnati
tho t1rstln many yaars-and the pressure
brought to bear on the State by the Gin
oinnati Convention, will certainly insure
the success Of the reform movement.
Grant. with all his military prestige, car
ried Pennsylvania by less than $4,000
votes. The next year, Geary was elected
Governor by 1000 majority, in vote of
$4,000. The present Radical State ticket
is obnoxious to the people. Hartranft, the
gubernatorial candidate, is accused Of
having hand in the Evans frauds. In
this State, the Reformers gained their
first victory in the election Of Colonel
Mcclure to tho State Senate, over his
Radical opponent. A strong delegation
has been semitic Cincinnati.
These statistics show that Grant is by
no means so powerful as his friends ina.
gino him. All depends on tho action Of
the Cincinnati Convention, md VIZ will

South Carolina to secede. as to have her
completely impoverished in the Union2
The one is as much loss to the United
States Government as the other would
have been. One thing is certain, if
South Carolina was worth fighting for to
keep her in the Union, she is worth
some little effort now to preserve her
while she is in the Union.
Four years more of Grants rule, like
the last, and South Carolina might as
we'll have seeded, or be wiped from the
face OF the earth, for all the benefit sho
will be to the common Government. As
a matter of interest, then, to the people
OF the North, outside of any rights that
the citizens OF South Carolina may
claim. the policy of the General Govern
ment towards the South should be
changed.
