regular, and erratic, and either was
doing very little, or was doing very
much. He lived very rapidly, took
no care Of bis health, and q consti-
tuition that was once like steel gave
way under the cruel treatment
which its master gave it.
In the Senate lie was alwaye found
when great debate was in progress,
and seldom did the discussion Of an
important topic close without a
brilliant and persuasive argument
from him.
So entirely in harmony with his
own views were the principles of the
Republican party, that he worked
in perfect harmony with that party
and was, indeed, in critical times
one of its pillars and ablest defend
ers. He was not constant to one
thought and purpose like Morton
and Sumner, but he was always with
them when it came to vote, and
when, during the reconstruction
times, constitutional points puzzled
the Senate, and even these states
men with all their wealth of reaso on
ing failed to satisfy the doubts that
arose, Matt Carpenter came to the
rescue with arguments SO clear and
logic so unanswerable as to coufound
his opponents.
He was very handsome man.
Short in stature, with the complex
ion of child, regular features, hair
and mustaches fine and silken, which
, were once a golden brown, but Of
late years silvery white, he had a
striking appearance, which was
heightened when not at rest by an
extraordinary gracefulness of man
ner. A great attraction was his
voice, which for purposes of oratory
was never surpassed at the bar or
forum Of this country-a silvery
tenor, always as clear and resonant
as the tones of bell, it was the envy
of orators and the admiration Of lis
| teners.
The great men of the second great
era in our government are passing
away very swiftly. 1t was the fash
ion, even when Sumner and Morton
and Seward aud Lincoln and Doug
las were alive, to bemoan the de-
cadence of craftsmanship, and to
point with regretful pride to the
days passed, when Webster and Clay
and Calhoun lent glory and renown
| to the Senate of the United States.
| But now, when the race Of later
! giants is about run, and one by one
they are disappearing, we begin to
see that craftsmanship has not been
in process of extinction, and that
even before the glamour of time has
softened or obscured the defects of
mortality, the great men of our own
generation will compare most favor-
ably with any that have given
American politics its luster and its
fame. Though occupying among
these second place, for Mr.. Car
penter preferred to be known as the
first lawyer rather than the first
Senator, the dead statesman wi
long be remembered in political life
as one Of the ablest debaters, and
perhaps the ablest constitutional
expounder, since the days Of
( Webster.

blow to polygamy. 1t shows that
there are more males than females

THE Democrats tiatter themselves
that the death Of Senator Carpenter
will give them the organization OF
the Senate, They forget, however,
that there is no certainty that Gen,
oyal Garfield will call that body to-
gether until Senator Carpenters
successor shall have been chosen,
and it is not probable that he will
do so when, by waiting few weeks
he can have Republican Senate.

Jacksonville, 3.--The particulars of a
most horrible triple murder have Just
reached here Sheriff MeckIer, of Her
nsndo County, who lives some miles
from the Court House, having occasion
to go there on the 29th ult., left his three
children, aged s, IL and II, alone with a
negro named King, to whom he had been
very kind. The feud shot and MORALLY
wounded the Oldest. then droyethe Others
to tAe woods, and shot the elder dead and
cut the throat Of the younger, and left it
also for dead. He then returned, robbed
the house Of Whist he could carry, and
way laid Mr.. Meekler, designing to kill
him on bis return. A neighbor accom-
panied Meckler, aad the murder was
thwsrted. The two wounded children,
when found, were able to give an &C.
count of the terrible affair, though one,
and perhaps both, are now dead. The
assassin was captured and confessed the
crime. He was burg in the presence Of
and with thu approval of 200 citizens,
white and colored He died sullen and
unrepentant. There csme near being a
riot at Fernando on account of the arrest
ofthe negro. Troops were called out.

The Albany Bribery.

Albany, 6.-Scott, in the assembly, re-
ported for the majority that the bribery
committee thought proper not to report
on the alleged bribery as indictments had
been found by the grand jury. Both
charges and denials were positive and
circumstantisl. The minority reported
that if the charge were true great crime
had been committed. It bears somewhat
on Bradley for receiving money at All.
and compares him with Judas Iscsriat.
Either Bradley or Sessions had the crime
of perjury on their conscience, the AL
mighty alone knew which. The testi-
mony shows that no money was offered
any legislator but Bradley. The whole
testimony is traVersed by the minority.

With a deal Of mounting and moan
ing, growing and groaning over the
action of the democrats, Mr.. Dawes
wound up with a motion to 90 into
executive session, the same motion
which has been made time without
number from the democratic side and
until to-day invariably resisted by Mr..
Dawes. For two months Mr.. Dawes
and his party associates have kept the
senate in session, and for what?
$50 change the man who tends the door,
To change the scrubbers Of the floor,
Tho wench who cleans the cuspidor."
This is all there is about it, and il
tho secrets Of the republican caucus
could be revealed, it would be shown
that sheer shame at the position in
which they found themselves caused
such expressions from several of the
republican senator's as convinced Their
more indurate associates that it was
time to staad from under. Mr.
DaWes undertook to say to the demo
Gratis that his motion was not to bC
construed as a back down on his part
or on the part 81 those he represented
Possibly not, but as Mr.. Dawes knew
that there were a number Of republi-
can senators for whom he was not au
thorized to speak 10 his iDtimatiOr
that the struggle over che offices wal
to be resumed, his bravado was Of nj
consequence whatever.
