DEATHS OF PUBLIC MEN.

Another U. S. Senator, Zebulon Vance
Of North Carolina, passed away in Wash
ington last week, and with him went the
most prominent and popular man in N orth
Carolina politics. and one who had earned
a National reputation in Federal politics.
He was a man who once seen was not like
ly to be forgotten, and few who heard his
address at the Opera House here, when the
Democratic party was in the low grounds
of minority, have forgotten either the NAL
OF what he said. He was not q great
statesman, but he was patriot and, with
it, a shrewed politician. Above all be was
Caroinian of Carolinians and was be.
loved by his people accordingly.
Just preceding him, David Dudley Field
of New Y DIRK, the great lawyer, passed
away, and following him Henry w. Slo-
cum. one of the most prominent Federal
generals during the civil war, and to the
day OF his death one Of the most intense
Democrats in the country. went.
Death has been busy with great names
in this country of late, and the harvest he
has reaped among U. S. Senators and Rep
resentatiyes has been unprecedented in the
same space of time.
