DEATH OF SENATOR MORTON.

The long and painful illness OF Sena-
tor MORTON eliminated in his death yes
terday At $40 P. NJ. He was conscious TO
the asst, and signifed to his attendants
that he had no fear of death. Although
Senator MORTON was man OF rare
ability, rs his whole life fully sttests, yet
his desth will be regarded by few as 8
great loss to the country, but rather as
Il calamity to his party, OF which be was
the acknowledged leader. His brlllsnt
talents he prostituted to the base
purposes OF his party, and he
was, more than any other
man, the embodiment of the spiri: of
sectional hatred engendered during the
late war. There seemed to be in his dis
position no charity for the erriDg, 10 for
pivness of wrong, and since the close
of the war he devoted his best efforts to
keeping slive sectional snimosity; but
let us hope that his course in this respect
was stimulated more by desire to serve
his party than from hatred OF his fellow
man
