ever taken by a President.

Senator Ben Hill, of Georgia, who has
been suffering for many months from an
incurab!e disease, and whose condition
from time to time has been reported in
the TINES, died quietly at his home, in
Atlanta on Wednesday last. His loss will be
sincerely mourned throughout the whole
country, and the Democratic party will
miss his able services in the U. S. Senate,
where he had made for himself an enviable
reputation by his outspoken candor and
denunciation of wrong. He was greatly
admired in the North as well as in the
South for his brilliant talents, while his
courtesy and kindness heart won for him
hosts of frinds among those who differed
most widely from him in political opinion
He was man of strong, earnest convic-
tions, and had the courage to express them
without regard to immediate consequences
but be was also one of the most generous
and tolerant of men towards those whose
opinions did not accord with his own. In
the Confederate Senate he was conspicu-
Gus character, and his opposition to Jeffer
son Davis brought him into sharp an
tagonis1n with a number of the leading
men of that body. In the House of Repre-
sentatives he won a national reputation
as ready debater and courageous party
leader, and when transferred to the Senate
he fully sustained the fame which he had
won in the House.

1t was terrible snub that the House of
Representatives administered to Speaker
Keifer and to Robson on Tuesday by in
tentionally emitting the resolution of COM
pliment to the Speaker that is usually
passed on the eve of adjournment. The
custom has the sanction of many years of
observance, and is in itself courteous ex-
preston of the fact that, however bitterly
party contests may have ragged during the
session, the Speaker has endeavored to be
just to all members. For this reason it
has been the practice for the resolution to
be offered from the minority side of the
House, and it was kept up even during
the embittered days of the slavery contest,
the war and the reconstruction period.
Moreover, it was not a meaningless and
empty honor, tor-to go back no further
than twenty-five years-Banks, Orr, Pen
nington, Grow, Colfax, Blaine, Kerr and
Randall are acknowledged to have been
digni6ed and impartial in the administra-
ton of their high Office. But Mr.. Keifer
has presented SO sharp a contrast to them
that the common compliment would have
been burlesque in his case; and, accord
ingly, Mr.. Robson vainly endeavored to
persuade any member to submit the reso-
luton which, it is to be presumed, he
had prepared in behalf of his pro'ege in
the.chair. Perhaps Chey are too thick
skinned to feel this severe rebuke but the
public can easily understand that it was
almost tantamount to vote of condemna-
tion Of Speaker Naturalization.

combined.

On Saturday last President Arthur left
Washington for New York on the steamer
Dispatch, making the trip on the ocean.
There was some comment in departmental
circles over the fact that that was the first
entire day in the history of the country
when there has not been President in
the country. Under the constitution the
President is not allowed to visit foreign
country during the term of office. He is
not, however, as some suppose, prevented
from taking an ocean trip, though he does
for the time leave his own country. Sail
ing in the United States vessel, under the
American and Presidents flag. he is legal
ly in the United States, even if he should
extend his trip to the Mediterranean sea,
provided he never landed anywhere. The
Dispatch, which carries the presidential
party, will arrived in New York Sunday
so that there will be two days in which it
can be said the country has been without
a President. 1t is said that was the ocean
trip ever taken by President.
