KETCH OF HIS CARKUR. Samuel Jacksen Randall was born In Phil idelphla, Oct. 10, 1828, and was there fore, in the UAl year of Ills age. Ills father was Jesiah Randall, a distinguished law- yer ; his mother Ann Worrell, a daughter or .General Jeseph Worrell, a noted Upcratle leader in the tlme of Preal Preal Preal uonTMelTerson. He received his education In the old University academy, en Fourth street, then under cbanre of Mr. Crawford, a well-known educator of his time. Frem the academy he at once passed te the counting room of Merris L. Hallewcll & Ce., silk merchants, where he remained several Tears. Subse quently he entered the iron business, being the Junier partner In the Dim of Earp fc Randall. While still young he was elected as a Whig te city council. In 1850 he changed his political affiliations upon the final disruption of fie Whig parly and seen after was sent te the stale Senate as a Democrat. While still in the Legislature the war broke out, and Mr. Randall went with the City Troop under the ninety-day call. Elected te Congress from the First district, (ul most the same as that new known ns the Third) he has sluce then been re-elected te represent his district in everr Congress. On Lee's invasion of Pennsylvania the Troop was ordered te Gettysburg en skir mish duty. They were successively driven from Seuth Mountain te Gettysburg, and en the 27th, after a Slight skirmish, re treated across the Susquehanna te Colum bia, bringing the tlrst autbontle news of the alze und alius of Lee's urniv. On the same day CaptaiA Randall, who liud succeeded te the command of the Troop, was appointed proxest marshal of Columbia, wliore the Troop re mained until July 4, when they were erdered te Harrlsburg. They followed the retreat or the robel army from Gettysburg, scouting and bringing In Intelligence of the results of the great battle, but took no active part in it. Until the Forty-third Congress he seldem spoke at length but was noted for his activity in committee work. In the Forty-first Congress he delivered a brief but powerful spcech en the subject of the repudiation or the national debt. He said : " Fer my seir and I think I speak for my. consti tuents I am utterly opposed te repudia tion. But the niiment allowed me gives the opportunity te remonstrate against the enunciation or any schems of legislation which I believe would place my country in a dishonest attltude bofero the world. Net only de I bollevo that we should pay the debt, but I believe, what is or vastly mere Importance, that the country has the ability, the disposition and the reseuicss te pay it." In the Forty-third Congress he catne prominently into netice in opposing the famous ferce bill, and its defcat was largely due te his skilful use of parliamentary tac tics. The majority had determined te force through a scries of bills which aroused the most violent antagonism en the part or the Democracy. Te tacilltate the passage or these measures they had adopted rules and had enforced the rules en their own mom mem mom bera. The caucus force bill gave te the president almost despotic power ever the government in the states recently in re bellion, by suspension of the habeas cor pus and the use of the army and navy whon when whon ever.ln his ludgnient.it should be necessary. T- The in all Democratic minority determined te resist this measure, and, in splle of the organization of the overwhelming majority, the careful framing of the rules te prevent such action and the able generalship of the great leaders of the Republican party In Congress, they succcoded In sodelaying the bill that It reached IheSennte tee late for action bofero adjournment. This w as done by the skillful management of Mr.Randall, who remained upon the fleer of the Heuse for 72 hours continuously, altor alter uatcly demanding a call of the Heuso en the question or no quorum and en motions te excuse members from net voting, The justke of the pretest was nvidenced en the final vote, when although it was carried by the e erw helming Republican majority, 33 or the members or that party, in srlte or caucus rule, voted with the Democrats. In December, 1870, he was elected speaker of the Heuse, succeeding Kerr, wlie dled during the preceding summer. His attitude duilng the famous presidential count gave him a strong held upon his Prtv. and the next Doccuiber he was re elected speaker. As he said in his valedictory at the close or this Congress : " The Democratic party yielded temporary possession or the ad ministration rather than entail upon the peeple civil war, with all its attendant horrors." He took charge or the Heuse in a moment of great excitcment, und by his firmness and patriotic spirit succcoded in averting serious complications. His service upon the appropriation and ether important cemmittees was or Inostlmable aluote the nation ; while he always opposed extravagance he was liberal in the treatment of worthy measures, Above all his sterling honesty has com manded the respect or the country. Mr. Randall had been in peer health for the past two j ears. Mr. Randall had been suffering w Hh fistula, and had undergone several surgical operations. He was al most totally incapacitated for duty in the Fiftieth Congress and had net appeared en the fleer of the Ilouse during the present session. Congressman Tucker, of Virginia, thus described his industry: "Randall, ai a masterly leader or men In the most turbu lent and difficult assembly te handle In this country, is w ell known. Te his fellow members us a committeeman of very gieat industry he Is also familiar, but his closet llfe of labor Is almost unknown. The amount of work he does diyring a sessien is prodigious, nud It is no wender te bis friends that there come, times when his ex hausted nercs pretest with rbeumatic twinges. Though he is seldem absent from the lloer of the Heuse whlle that body Is In session, his 72 hours or continuous servlce there en one occasion being new one or the traditions that will go down te future con gressmen net yet born, und though he Is always at the haul or the table when his committee meets, yet, great as these dally labors are. they constitute) only a part or the task that Mr. Randall Imposes en him self. It is at night, after he has si out nu hour with his tainily at the dinner table, that Mr. Randall botahes himself te his workshop, und thore begins labors that l.ibt sometimes far Inte the night. "There are lawyers whose fees are greater In a month than Mr. Randall's In come is for a year, who would regird as a geed day's work the labor that Mr. Randall does In his little workshop before he puts out his light at night. He has never lweu satisfied te take the estimates of the depart ments or the amount of money needed. He has net always been satisfied te take the estimates of the suleioniniltlecserhls own committee. He has always tried te satisfy himself. Se that he has been accus tomed te examine, as far as passible, every slngle Uem calling for an appreprl i i tlen, whether for a hundred or a bundled thousand dollars. This sometimes In volved prolonged labor. The laws are ex amined, the reason for the existence of the department looked Inte und Its functions studled. He bocemos an auditor of accounts in a measure. And when we romeaiber that at each session there are, or were before the change in the rules, some 12 general appropriation bills, wme of them with two or three hundred sepa sepa rate items of appropriation, it will be been bow prodigious must be the labor ex pended by any roan te master them all. He uld net pay much attention te religious matters until recent years, but en Sunday, January 19 last, Dr. Chester, or the Metro politan Presbyterian church, Washington, announced te hit congregation that Con Cen Con freMUua Samuel J, Randall and bis wfe, 192. who waaa daughter of Gen. Aaren Ward, or Sing Sing, N. Y., had been admitted te membership In that church. He has always been a med'l husband and father. Three children will mourn his less a daughter the wife of C. C. Lancaster, a lawyer of Washington, Susan, unmarried and a bright boy who bows his fatber'a name. Mr. Randall waaa llUle mera than six feet In height, but a alight steep reduced his stature somewhat. He waa bread of shoulder and loose of limb, weighing erer 200 pounds. His face was beardless and his complexion aallew. Hia ayes were black and piercing. Ilia large sited head was surmounted by waving, short grey hair, but in late years a little bald. The ex-speaker diea a peer man prob ably poorer than any ether man In Con gress te-day. Yet nls life haa been the Elalnest and least extravagant of any ment or that ran be pointed out. The Heuse In Mourning. Waruimoten, April 14 An air e( Bad ness pervaded the Heuso chamber when the speaker's fa vel called the body te order at neon te-day.

Bring them and us te that hlgher life, we pray, through Jesus Clirist. Anion.
