ALEXANDER ii. STEPHENS, one oi
the most noted of Americans. has nj
last passed away. His death occurred
last Sunday. AS Is well known, he
has been for years a confirmed invalid
and n is only matter Of wonder that
he has survived so long. Probably mo
Southern man has been 80 universally
respected in the North As has Alexan
der II. Stephens. IT was generally
published that he very reluctantly
east his fortunes with the South at the
commencement of the Rebellion and
although he held the office of Vice
President Of the Confederacy, he still
preserved to great extent the SYM
pathy and respect Of Northern men
His late election to the office OF Gov
ernor of Georgia brought him into
prominence again and his success in
this respect was most acceptable &c
the members of all parties.

THE Legislative conference COM

the House by vote Of 100 for to Il
against, aud also passed the Senate
We publish the new law in full THU
week. While the law is not all that
could he wished, il is a step in the
right direction, and its defects rs they
appear upon trial. can be Iemedied In
future legislatioa. The members
who were the most extreme i'm this
kind Of legislation, voted against the
bill, preferring TO have no law at all
than one which did not conform Il
their idea of the wants of the people
in the matter of transportation. 1t j.
feared that that part of the law pro
viding for the compensation of the
commissioners is unconstitutional.
But the State must commence Eek
perimenting" in this matter some
time, and can as well do IL this year
as at any other time.
