chusetts, in 1860 and 1861, and was
elected to the thirty-eighth, thirty-ninth,
fortieth, forty-first and forty-second Con
gresses, his service dosing with the late
session.
Few men of his age oomld have passed
the ordetl of the Credit Mobiler ex
amination and the subsequent censure of
the House, with the nerve displayed by
Mr. Ames. The strain, however, was
too grent Jbr eeen his iron constitution.
With Mr. James Brooks, another of the
implicated, he has now passed to the
land of silenco and quietude. The lead
ing men of the country are falling out of
their places rapidly and suddenly. We
are living in an ago when intensity of

Tuf.iie is something startling in the
rapidity with which prominent publio
men are dying. The year is still young,
but it has already witnessed the deaths
ol many prominent men on both conti
nents, of whom we call to mind at this
moment Napoleon III, liulwer, Baron,
Liebig, pnd Baptist Noel in Europe, and
in this country Joshua Leavitt, Com
modore Maury, Governor Geary, Sena
tor Bison, General Canby, James
Brooks, Minister Orr, Chief Justice
Chase, Captain Hall and Oakes Ames.
This is of course only a small portion of
the record of eminent men deceased. It
will be one of the remarkable coinci
dence of history that the same month
fchould witness the funerals of both
Ames and Brooks, the two victims of
Congressional censuie. John Stuart
Mill, the most eminent of the Britibh es
sayists and writers on political economy,
is a loss which may well be mourned by
the civilized world. He was a man of
spotless character, looking ever to the
right as his rule of action,. But the
great, as well as the humble must die !
State Journal.
Some people havo a chronic habit of
despairing of the country. Scarcely a
day passes that we do not hear some
somber-minded indivdual declaim against
the general rotteuness, and prophesy of
coming evil ; scarcely a day that we do
not read in some exchange, gloomy fore
bodings as to the future. What non
sense all this is. Men are no worse to
day than they were twenty centuries, or
one couture, or half a century ago ; in
fact, they are generally supposed to have
improved, morally and intellectually,
taking them as a mass, sinoe the advent
of Christianity ; and that improve
ment in both morals and intellect is still
progressing. What if a supreme rascal
does occasionally appear upon the sur
face, or a dozen of them, for that mat
ter 1 Has not every other age produced
the like, and why should we of the pres
ent expect exemption ? The masses cf
mankind are honest ; intelligence is be
ing more generally diffused ; and whils
this is the case we have certainly raorj
cause to hope than to fear. The r ct.U
that appear periocliceily ia pubVo end
private are but the ouui throrn to tie
surface by the bnbbling of tH caldroi
the principal ingredients of tVa poi a.e
the sounder anl sweater for tbe'r expul
sion. We certiinly can re? J in the
signs of ihs times no danger to onr
country in the near 'uture; and ii' wc
can put faith in the declarations of the
press of all parties, thp- e is ipno; for
we Republicans contend that our party,
as a whole, is pure, trid the De'nocrMs
and Liberals claim to be the very soul cf
honor and honesty. We except of
course, the few black Eiiojp in ill pirtios
occosionally oiscovered and eiautcd lrom
the fold. Toh bein so, the oor.niry,
for the present, must be sifs. What
may occur a century cr tea centuries
hence is not worth considering1 (".Har

Chief Justice Chase was thrice mar
ried. His first wife was Miss Kate Gar
niss, by whom there was no issue. We
believe she ,'aa a !aughtsr or niece of a
Mr. Garniss, well known ia Cincinnati
forty years ago. His second wife was
Miss Lizzie Smith. She was ton mother
ot Miss Kato Chase, now the wiij of
Senator Sprague, of Rhode Islanu. nis
third wife was Miss Sarah B. Ludlov?,
gra nddaughter of Israel Ludlow, one of
the first colony of settlers on the Sym
mes purchase. She was the mother of
Miss Nettie, now Mrs. Hoyt of New
York, at whose house the Chief Justioe
died.
The $300 Law.
The Uws of our 8tate have wisely
thrown some restriction around the
grasping rapaoity of those who would
roinetirhes invoke the aid of ornelty to
enforce the demands of justice. Unfore
seen circumstances may sometimes pre
vent creditors from fulfilling the letter of
their bonds aad in such cases Shylock
should be restrained from exacting his
pound of flesh. Although the intention
of our exemption law is good, we yet
think that it is framed in such a way as
to allow too much exemption to those
who are disposed to live by the sweat of
some one else's brow instead of their own.
As the law now stands, it allows a man
to retain from creditors, goods' to the
amount of 8300. If be only has goods
to that amount he can keep them from
being sold to pay his just debts, even
though his pockets were stuffed with
greenbacks at the time. Or, if he has
thousand of dollras' worth of property
that happens to be located in some other
plaeo, out of the reach of creditors, he
can still retain the amount of exemption
from the articles that creditors may be
able to find. A man may have real es
tate or a stock of goods and contract
debts to a large amount on the credit of
them, bat when his creditors proceed to
collect their demands, he sells out, puts
the money in his pocket, and then claims
3300 besides.
It seems to ns that the law should be
so amended as to obligue the debtor to
at least make an affidavit that the goods
he claims under the exemption law are
all he posesscs; and that he has neither
money nor securities, which when added
to the value ot the goods he claiais, will
exceed the valuo of 8300. If in addi
tion to this he bc'conipelled to testily
under oath, and answer such questions
as might be asked by parties interested,
it would do much to close a door through
which honest men do not care to travel,
but which often affords a means of escape
for the fraudulent shyster. The unfor
tunate honest man does not care to hide
his effoots from his creditors, and the
unfortunate scallawag should not be al
lowed to. Protecting honest debtois is
one thing ; assisting lraud is quito an
other. It has been urged by some that
there should bo no excmpliou, becau.se it
teuds to encourage extravagance and
ruuning in debt. We think, however,
for the sake of humanity, no creditor
should have the power to cast women
and children iu the street without any
thing. All we want is that the law shall
not be allowed to shield rasoals. Scran

Over the the thriving little town of
Dixon, Illinois there is, at present a pall
of sadness, the gloom of which the least
interested cannot help feeling. It is oc
casioned by a calamity that occurred
Suuday, May 4cb, 1873, the particulars
of which are substantially as follows :
From 200 to 300 people had gathered
on a bridge to witness the baptism of ten
converts. Just as the third candidate
was presenting himself for baptism there
was a sharp, quick crash a heavy rum
bling, nud a prolonged, soul-rending
shriek from those on the structuie. The
main western stringer of the north span
of the bridge broke like a reed, tipping
three hundred persons into the stream,
and falling fifty feet with crushing
weight upon them. The fall dislodged
the stays from the abutments. The
shock ran along the whole lcught of the
bridge like a flash ol electricity and span
alter span was drawn from the piers and
sank to the water's surface, till the whole
five huog like immenne bags holding a
bruised, bleeding, frightened aud.frau
tio mass of men, women and children,
and horses. The imagination can
scarcely conceive of a more terrible cal
amity. The situation was so terrible,
the chances of escape so fjw, the
chances of aid so scanty, that it is
merely marvellous that the loss of life is
not greater. ' As it is, over fifty were
either drowned or crushed to death
beneath the great mass of broken iron
and timber.
