Mr. Stephens was elected to e6ngres IS
shortly after the reconstruction Was COM
pleted and served continuously until dur
ing the past year. hen he re- gned to ac-
cept the position OF Governor of Georgia,
to which he had been elected by an over
wheiming majority. In Congress, since as
we'll as before the war, he exercised very
great influence, and his views upon all
questions were always received with the
difference due to the utterances of broad
minded PARROT and statesman.
His life and works, especially in the lat
ter years of his life, furnished a very re-
markable exception to the rule, which is
generally true as physiological principle
that the necessary habitation of a sound
mind is sound body-''mens sana in cor
pore sano." Though for great many year,
previous to his death confined to his in
valid chair, and entirely helpless physi
cally, the vigor Of his mind remained un
impaired to the last.

Col. Harry Gimor, whose serious illness
we-no' cd last week, died shortly after 9
o'clock on last Sunday night at his resi-
dence in Baltimore city. The position
which Col. Gilmor will hold in the legend
of the late civil war, is a distinguished
one. This is due, of course, to the large
qualities of the man-as a soldier, gallant
and brave; AS a gentleman, genial. courte-
Gus and kind as a friend, warm hearted
and true In the Valley of Virginia lay
the Scene OF his explains, and many an old
ton when they recall his deeds of daring
and bravery as they drop a tear to his
memory. The beauty of that region, the
thrilling events associated with tho name
of every stream, mountain and village, all
predispose the mind to dwell with pleas
ure upon the career of our gallant Mary
land trooper, rather than upon the opera
tions of others-opers'ions equally impor-
tant perhaps, but performed under cir
cumstances less romantic. Gi'mor is chief
among the heroes OF partisan warfare in
the valley. Here the people with rustic
wonder. saw him facing the superior num-

The bill for the reduction of the inter
nal revenue of the government, otherw Use
known as the ''tariff BILL" passed both
houses of Congress during the latter days
of the session. The Senate bill, which
consisted of series of amendments tack
ed on to the internal revenue bill passed
at the last session of the House, was re-
ceived in the House aud the Senate amend
ments non -concurred in, after which it was
referred to a conference committee. The
action of the conference did not materially
alter the bill as originally passed by the
Senate, the principal charges being an in
crease of the duties upon iron and steel,
which was brought about by William D.
Kelley, surnamed "old Pig Iron" As
thus amended the bill was passed by both
houses by very nearly party vote the
Democrats voting almost solidy against
the mes sure. Thus, while the Democrats
have carefully avoided inteiposing any
dilatory measures for defeat OF The bill,
they have determined that the Republic
cans should take all the responsibility Of
of this sham measure, and that they won d
not preclude themselves from showing up
its iniaui'y and bad faith before the peo-
pie in the coming campaigns by record
ing their votes in its favor. This Is, no
doubt. a prudent and wise as we'll as
proper and consistent course. Had the
Democrats re.orted to dilatory tactics,
they would have incurred the accusation
of preventing the Republicans from accept
ing the verdict of the late elections and
relieving the burdens of the people. A.
it is they have permitted The Republicans
to show to the country what they would
do in this direction, and instead of holding
aloof, have exerted themselves, with some
exceptions, in good faith toward revising
the tariff upon an honest revenue basis
Their efforts in this direction, were how
ever, unavailing, and the bill which has
been adopted fell so far short of q true
reform of the tariff, as advocated by the
Democratic parry and demanded by the
people, that the Democrats in Congress
did right in refusing to give it their sup
port. As We have heretofore predicted, it
will remain for the next Democratic House
to pass measure looking to an honest
reform of the tariff burdens and throw
upon the Republican Senate aud Execu-
tive the responsibility Of defeating il

The Republicari brethren do not dwell

The Republican, brethren do not dwell
together in harmony. They are rivsn IA
sundet by bitter contest over Mr.. Ditty's
place as collector of internal revenue for
the Third district of Maryland. Two
RichnondS from Southern Maryland are
in the field. Mr. j. Henry SeIman. OF
Anne Arundel county, and State Senator
Joseph S. Allston, of st. Mary's county,
and The fight between the friends OF these
two gentleman wakes warm. Representa-
tive-elect Holton has endorsed Mr.. Sellman
while Senator Allston claims the support
of the four lower counties of the State; not
by any means an insignificant endorsement
as they are the stronghold of Republican
ism in the State. This strength represents
fourteen woes in the next legislature,
which in the case of the impro hahle sue
cess of the Republicans this ia !, may be
a veIy important factor in the election of
q United States Senator in January next
1t is this representative power back of Mr.
AllS'Ou tldt has hSue MI. f1OltOn ptuSe
in his advocacy of Seilman, and confess
that if he had known of the Senator's can
didacy he would not have pledged him
self Tor Sellman. AT best Mr. Sellman
cannot hope to carry Anne Arundel, for 1t
must be remembered that the breaches in
the Democracy in that county are healed
beyond any hope of the Republicans to
reap any advantage from old ieuds, and
it won't to put man in such position
who cannot bring rength to the party =
Thursday evening of last week Senators
Lancaster, of this county, Magruder, of
Prince Georges and Allston, had an inter,
view with Mr.. J. A. J. Crsswell in Wash
ington to solicit his influence for Senator
Aston. Whist that gentleman could
not give his services as asked, because, he
having had MIR, Ditty appointed, was com
PEELED to support his efforts at retention.
He very frankly confessed that he recog.
nized the strong representative backing
of Senator Allsten, and did net hesitate to
say that if Mr. Ditty was turned out he
would net finch from giving his advice
TO the President to recognize the Senator's
claims. As the kite now fl les it looks as
if Senator Allston held the winning string
