THURSDAY, AUGUST 13, 1863
The late Leader of the House of Kepre
senatlvea. Dpbiko life it is a difficult matter to get any
current estimate of the obaraoter of an active
pollUoian. rolitioal friends are for party par
poses constrained to detect imaginary merits,
andpolitioal oes are for a like reason led to
deny virtue which are really possessed.
After death, however, this division of senti
ment is in a great measure done away with
and people oan give credit or oensnre as they
deem just. Viewed, then, from the stand
point of opinion whioh we oan oooupy the
day after the death of Mr. Thaddeus Stevens,
we oan emphatically Bay that a great man has
left us one of the pillars of the State, a pillar
which has lifted its head above all its fellows,
and done more to support the fabric of polioy
pursued by the United States for the
past six years than any other man,
living or dead. Friend and foe alike
0-day unite in an opinion as to Mr. Stevens
which is singularly unanimous. There is be
tween the estimate of the Democracy and tha
of the Republicans little difference. They alj
Join in granting to him transcendent abilities
abilities of a character which command re.
Bpect and success. From no quarter do we hear
it said that Mr. StevenB was not a singularly
able statesman. They may differ as to the pro
priety of his views, as to whether or not the
oountry is benefited or injured by their adop
tion, but all confess that he displayed consum.
mate tact in gaining for them a general
adoption. None can complain of the estimate
made by the Age in a sketch of his life, when
it says: "lie stood among the most prominent
men of our time. It will not be easy to name
another man who has exercised as wide an in
fluence, who has embodied eo many of his own
peouliar ideas in the measures and policy of
the government. The extraordinary quality
in Thaddeus Stevens was his force of charac
ter, Joined to a certain simpleness of purpose,
and a real sincerity in the pursuit of it."
From all sides come like tributes, and
passing from these we cannot hesitate to see
in these tributes testimonials of the real worth
Of the man, his great powers, his uudoubted
purity and sinoerity, aud unyielding will.
There are few men who within the allotted
Space of life oan see what has been vouchsafed
to Thaddeus Stevens. lie was past bis
prime before he entered politics. Com.
xnenoimr at a time when most men have
either arisen high, or lost . all ambi.
tion to seek for renown, he started hid
career with two purposes in view. The first
was to secure to every child in Pennsylvania
the advantages of a free sohool eduoatlon.
The second was to carry out the doctrines of
equality, give freedom to all men, and, if po3
sible, secure to them both social and political
equality. He had two seemingly insurmount
able obstacles to overcome. Around the two
demons of ignorance and slavery
Were clustered defenses seemingly impregna
ble. There was but a handful of the faithful,
'seeking to cause the walls of two Jerichos to
fall down. Yet the walls have fallen, and Thad
deus Stevens lived to see ' them fall, and to
inow that of all men he had done the most to .
accomplish the result. By his almost unaided
exertions, his inveotive, ridioule, and argu
ment, he foroed the Common School bill
through a Legislature opposed in its heart to
its passage, and dared his constituents to
defeat him beoause of his course. A etory U
told of how he visited a town in an interior ,
county to speak in favor ol the bill, and
Was met by an audience unanimously opposed
to it, who greeted him with hoots and howls.
At once commencing his adiress, he told him
that they were "ignorant foots," and that he
would leave it to themselves if their action
did not prove them to be so. By ha audacity
Le secured a hearing, and, it is even said,
gained the eleotion of a member in favor of
the bill. Certain it is that ' the children of
Pennsylvania have to thank Thadiens
Stevens more than any otbet man for
an excellent system of education.
. Overcoming the giant of ignorance, he turned
'Lis arms against slavery, and astonished its
friends by the audacity ot his taotics. Ever
watchful, a ready debater, he soon found op
portunities to aid his object through legisla
tion, and a strict watch was kept on all his
movements by the Southern delegation.
Whatever Thaddeus Stevens moved was
carefully watched. With the ascendancy of
the Republican parly in Congress he became
the master spirit. Ever ready with a repartee
and a caustio allusion, and thoroughly an
eorupnlous when he sought to attain an ob
ject as to whose feeliugs he trod upon, he was
feared with an exceeding great fear. lie be
came the leader of the House of Representa
tives. There can be no position more difficult.
The teacher of a back woods sohool,
with unruly children under his con
trol, leads a life of comparative quiet
When compared with that of a master
mind who seeks to shape the popular polioy of
our national legislature, lie has to maintain
Lis post of constant warfare. lie has opposi
tion both within the ranks of his friends and
from all the opposite members. It requires
tact ef rare quality, ability of the highest
order, a readiness never failing, and withal
oourage undaunted. All remember how
Thaddeus Stevens had to lay the whip over
the doubting member of the party, and by a
system of really arbitrary power oompel then
to support measures which he favored. - Per
six years be heW that position without a com
petitor, and now die leaving it still
in . his possession. Who now shall
govern' In his stea t 1 Upon whom shall
his mantle fallr We' oan 'recall none who is
fitted to take that vaoant' chair and hold the
reins whioh have fallen from his powerless
hands. . With all this he was popular with the
opposition. He was never false in kis pro
mises. If he agreed to give them a ohauoe to
debate they knew he would keep his word.
He generally gave them the floor in preference
to his friends, and never failed to treat them
with unvarying respect. , Suoh was the dead
man for whom half the flags of the nation are
at half-mast. Imperious and resolute, able,
unscrupulous, kind-hearted, and generous, he
was a strange mixture, one whioh when com
bined with suooess merits for its possessor the
undeniable title of great,
European Topics.
In Great Britain the approaching election pro
mises to be scarcely less exoitiug and import
ant than the Presidential contest in the
United States. Perhaps even greater interest
is attached in England to the struggle for Par
liamentary power on account of the fact that
while scarcely a doubt is entertained in this
country of the election of Grant and Colfax,
a considerable degree of uncertainty surrounds
the British canvass. The chanoes are appa
rently in favor of the Whigs, but in view o;
the new elements introduced into the contest
by the discussion of the Irish Church ques.
tion, and by the extension of the right of
suffrage, the result cannot be predicted with
much confidence. A striking illustration of
the rottenness of the English electoral system,
notwithstanding the many efforts to reform
it, has recently been given by the change
in the representation of an important
district whioh has been effected by a young
echool-boy. lie is a Marquis, owning the
landed property occupied by the electors, and
having, for such reasons as seemed to bis own
mind conclusive, deemed it fitting that the
politics of the sitting member should be
changed, he has issued a Vermillion edict
which the free and independent electors are
expected to obey without a murmur. Thus
tbe slavish old doctrine, that the lord of the
manor should control the votes of his tenantry,
seems to remain in full force, and it is only in a
pottion of the districts that the real voice of the
people can find expression. Considering that
open bribery prevails to a frightful extent in
many of the Inghsh districts where the voters
possess a comparative freedom of choice, and
that in others they vote, not as their judg
ments dictate, but as they are direoted by their
feudal lords, it is evident that with all her pro
fessions of liberality, and boasts of progress,
Great Britain has made but a slight advance
on the highway of true Republican freedom.
The influence of her aristocracy rejuains
supreme, no matter which party triumph, and
in her warmest contests, the question after all,
is as one of her many novelists has described
it, mainly whether Lord Poodle or Lord Noo
dle should exeroise controlling power.
A recent speech of the Emperor of Franoe,
which is apparently a mere common-place
effort, has again set the critics to disputing
whether he intends to maintain peaoe or to in
augurate a war. There is nothing in his re
marks, .or the occasion which oalled them
forth, to justify this diBoussion, and it oould
scarcely have been started if the Emperor was
not In the r habit of occasionally indioating
in oracular sentenoes his : polioy on
great questions. lie . is evidently de
termined to be prepared for war, but there i
s at present no sufficient motive for precipi
tating a conflict. He has recently endeavored
to confirm and strengthen his friendly rela
tions with England,: and he still maintains,
apparently, his entente cordicde with Austria,
and if he has not forgiven Bismark, he ap
pears to have no good reason at present for
precipitating a conflict with Prussia. It has
been suggested that ,. the real design of
the French., Emperor is to attempt,
in ' the present - revolutionary condition
of Spain, to gain control of that
distracted country, and thus rather imitate
than punish the ambitious Prime Minister of
the North German Confederacy. This may
prove a mere idle conjecture, but in no other
direction oould the Frenoh monarch seek with
equal hope of suocesa territorial aggrandize
ment, and the French people are growing tired
of fighting other people's battles for mere
glory.
In Austria the Protestant Prime Minister,
Baron BeuBt, has reoently written a significant
reply to the allooutlon of the Pope, from
whioh it clearly appears that the new polioy
of religious freedom is to be firmly maintained,
and that any further interference from Rome
will provoke retaliatory measures inimical to
Catholio interests. .
A pacific interview between the Czar of Rus
sia and the King of Prussia occurred at
Langensohwalback, on the 11th instant. These
monarohs probably intend to perfect and
maintain a close allianoe, as an offset to the
alliance between Franoe and Austria, and it is
a settled part of their polioy to oultlvate
friendly relations with the United States.
From the Czar we reoently obtained Alaska,
and from the North German Confederation the
first treaty whioh fairly and fully recognized
the right of adopted citizens to change their
allegiance.
We regret to learn that it is reported from
Russia that the benefits of emancipation have
been greatly weakened, if not entirely neu
tralized, by the idleness ef the serfs and their
inordinate love for brandy. They have con
strued freedom into license for lnt:nperanoe
and an abandonment of all forma of
useful industry, and as a natural re
sult produotlon has greatly diminished,
and some districts, onoe fertile, are now
threatened with famine. The freedmen
of the Southern States appear to have passed
the ordeal of emancipation in a uiuoh more
I
oreditable manner than the emancipated -millions
of Russia. , The' best hope of the latter
is that they will speedily learn wisdom from
their self-imposed misfortunes, and be taught
by want and hunger that no political changes
can exempt the mass of mankind from useful
,',- J
Opinion or Jlr. Evarts.
Mb. Evabtb, Attorney-General, has, in re
sponse to a request of Mr. MoCullooh, Riven
his opinion in writing on the question,
whether there is avaoanoy in the Corneals
sionership of Internal Revenue. Mr. Rollins,
in June, sent to the President a resignation,
to take effect on the confirmation of his snooes
sor. The Senate refused to confirm any one
nominated, and adjourned. ' The question
arose, whether or not Mr. Rollins had resigned.
Mr. Evarts decides he has not. That his let
ter, with the oondition annexed, took no effuot
until the condition was fulfilled, and that,
therefore, there was no vacancy. The opinion
is an able legal one, and is written with all
the judicial acumen for which the Attorney
General is so noted.
Poverty of the Pope.
Tub poor old Pope Is becoming "hard up" in
his age, but we are glad to peroelve that, inj
stead of becoming down in the mouth, or
ohapfallen on the occasion, he is plucking up
his courage and soundly berating those who
have left him in suoh a plight. He goes
faither than that too, for he pelts and pun
ishes as well as reprimands them. Victor
Emmanuel, it seems, owed him lately three
millions of francs, but there was no possibility
of getting the swash-buckliog king to pay up.
All the money was required for defraying the
expenses of his Majesty's various humbug
establishments and other petite pleasures. Iu
this emergency the effect of anathemas was
tried in vain. The Italian King stood firm
against all the threatened thunders
of the church, and does not seem to
have been specially moved by the
Holy Father's refusal to bestow his bene
dlotion upon the recent marriage of the Crown
Prince. In these circumstanoes, before re
sorting to excommunication, Pio Nono fortu
nately applied to Louis Napoleon, and a hint
from the French Emperor at once made the
recusant sovereign 'Vump up," or "knuokle
down" whichever of the two be the latest or
most elegant synonym for the remarkably
disagreeable ceremony, to suoh persons, of
paying in cash. Louis Napoleon, aocording to
all accounts, has not much of that commodity
at present to spare himself, but he has a host
of bayonets and broadswords on hand, whioh
can readily enforce payment from others. A
hint accordingly was sufficient to make the
money forthcoming from the delinquent.
But, mark the amusing part of the affair
we shall not venture to say the ingratitude of
the Pope. The tables are nxt turned upon
Louis Napoleon himself, or hia troops; and the
Holy Father has wounded them in the ten
derest and most susceptible of all parts that
is, in their stomachs. The Pope, it appears,
was lately called upon to inspect Borne legion
of the French Guards in the neighborhood of
Rome, and what must have been a very,
desirable ceremony to suoh innocents to bless
their banners. Inspired by that gratitude
which is said to be a lively sense of future
favors, his Holiness complied, ani volun
teered, moreover, with his own sacred hands
to perform a mass in the camp for their
special gratification. The devout troops,
were in ecstaoies, but the weather, 'we
regret to say, was not propitious. It lowered
most menacingly in the early part of the day,'
and when Pio Nono arrived on the ground the
rain descended in torrents, i With exemplary
pluok, however, he went through the whole
ceremony, though long before the end of it he
was drenohed to the skin, and eventually
quitted more like a half-drowned dnck than
the head of the most numerous body of Chrisi
tians upon earth. . And the wrath of the Holy
Fathei was -commensurate; for, like the black
ram on Salisbury plain, which Invariably
tnrned the posterior portion of Its spine to the
wisd when a shower was appr oaohing, he had
foreseen the shower, and ordered a temporary
shed to be erected over the altar, in wood,
with the view of guarding against it. The
French commander had used one ' of the ordi.
nary tents instead, and thus his Holiness got
ducked. In revenge, Pio Nono counter
manded a dinner whioh he ' had ordered for
sixty superior offioers, and matters were in
this preoious state of embroglio when the
latest despatches left.
Cruelty to Anim&ls. The Committee of the
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Ani
mals, appointed to consider some means of
alleviating the sufferings of horses and dogs
during the warm weather, have made a sen
Bible report. It is an address to the owners of
horses and mu'es and dogs, nrging on them
kindness to the dumb animals under their
charge, In view of the disastrous effeots of
the heat to horses and mules, they urge that a
wet sponge be placed on the animal's forehead,
and that their mouths be frequently washed
out; that the horses in the street oars be
driven slowly and constantly refreshed; that
the muzzles for dogs be made sufficiently Urge,
so that no torment will be inflioted on the
poor creatures by their use. Tbe report is
eminently practical and will, we hope, do
good. We sincerely desire its enoouragement
by all of our citizens.

more than $28,000 higher than in July, 1867.
