Chase, and Writ, and Martin, and the
able peer of fancy, Mcmahon, Nelson,
Meredith and Schley. As statesman
he was trained in the school Of some of
the greatest men of the republic,
occupying high position in public life
when Clay aud Webster and Calhoun
divided the honors OF political leader

Among the honors to which he attained
were those of Senator of the United
States, Attorney General and minister
to England. Apart from his great
claims as public man and citizen
upon the respect and regard Of the
community in this city and State,
where Mr.. Johnson lived and where
his children and grand children survive

tached to him by personal ties of
kindred ami affection, who will deeply
feel and mourn their personal loss, and
who willreceive the respectful sympathy

Hon. RRvERDY JoHNsoN-Despite OF
the venerable age attained by our
lamented and distinguished fellow
citizen, whose sudden decease at An
napolis last Thursday we are panied to
announce to-day, the news of his death,
no less of the fact itself than of the
pai;,ful circumstances attending it, will
strike like sudden shock the COM
munity and the country. Mr.. johnson
had preserved in so wonderful degree
his vitality and all the vi ger OF his fac
ulties, that death seemed no nearer to
him than to much younger men. Only
within the last few weeks the veteran
statesman and jurist crossed and re
crossed the ocean on brief professional
visit to England, and during his absence
there was published in these columns a
letter from him to the proprietors of
this paper, indicating how keen his in
terest and acute his observation as to
all the topics of the day, and how
undated his capacity for social and in
tellectual enjoyment. The very occasion
Of his presence in Annapolis was pro>
,fessional engagement in the Court OF
Appeals, before whom he was to-day
to have argued a cause. His death APP
pears to have been the result of an
acc dent, and owing to his impaired
sight, which was doubtless the cause Of
his fatal fall. All the particulars, as
furnished by telegraph, will be found
elsewhere. To review all the incidents
of Mr.. Johnsons long and busy, and no
less useful and distinguished career, we
have not here the time nor space. In
another portion of to days paper will
be found sketch of the leading in.
cidents of his life. While his fame
belongs to the country at large he was
peculiarly son Of Maryla and one
Of whom Maryland will always be
Justly proud 70 her service IN the
councils of the State and the nation

REMOVAL OF CONFEDERATE DEAD
In 1871 the Pennsylvania Legislature
appropriated $4,000 for the removal Of
the Confederate dead, buried at Gettys-
burg. For the disbursement Of this
amount, Senator Jones, of Philadelphia,
has introduced bill in the Pennsvl-
vania Legislature which authorizes the
State Treasurer to pay the amount to
trustee to be appointed by the Gov
ernor under this act. The bill further
provides that all the confederate sold-
iers inferred at Gettysburg and other
points in Adams and Franklin counties
shall be removed to Washington Gem
etery, Maryland. and properly buried.
The bill was drawn up at the instance
of Major H Kyd Douglass of Hagers-
town, who has been at Harrisburg, for
several days

Measures of relief for the benefit of

The trial of Gen. Babcock, the Presi
dents private secretary, at st Louis,
on the Indictment charging him with a
participation in the Whisky Ring
frauds continues to attract public at
tention. The prosecution, guided by
the opinion of the presiding Judge,
abandoned the course previously taken
to introduce evidence regarding the
conspiracy existing in 1871 and 1872,
and confines their witnesses to the
Ring operations from 1873 and 1878.
Several witnesses were examined, but
nothing in relation to the defendant
was elected. The Court adjourned to
allow counsel ON both sides to agree
upon series of heterogeneous to be
propounded to President Grant, the
examination to take place before the
Chief Justice of the United States
Supreme Court The opening speech
of District Attorney Dyer, made in the
Babcock trial on Tuesday, though not
an extraordinary piece of oratory, is
considered to be powerful presenta-
ton of the case for the Government.
The general public are somewhat sur
prlsed at the bold confidence with
which the prosecution asserted its readi-
ness to trace ring money directly to the
hands of Babcock, and it is conceded
thai if the Government makes out
ca sc as strong as it promises, the defen-
dant's conviction is foregone conclu-
sion.- Much speculation is INDUCED in
concerning the character of the jury

anxiously looking for the adjournment.
Our representatives have been con-
