the Committee that he had ample evi
dence to fully substantiate the claim,
w hich, it will be remembered, was
buspended by a resolution of Con
gress several years since.
The long delay of Congress in set
tling the currency question, is prov
ing very injurious to the business in
terests of the country. While that
body is wrangling over the best
method nearly every member hav
ing a plan which ho deems a sover
eign panacea the business interests
of the country are languishing.
With trade on a generally sound ba
sis, a foreign demand for till the pro
duets we have to spare, and a fair
snpplv of money awaiting investment
so soon as the volume of currency is
definitely fixed, yet, at this season of
the year when trade is usually brisk,
business is dragging, and capital re
mains locked up lrecause Congress
neglects to do its duty.
If that body will only do some
thing, it scarcely matters w hat, so
only The present doubt and uncer
tainty is removed, business will at
once revive and accommodate itself
to the situation. It is the uncertainty
surrounding the monetary affairs of
the country that is crushing the life
out of all business operations.
The committee appointed by the
Legislature to examine and report
what alterations and additions are
necessary in the Capitol building, to j
accommodate the increased lesisla-1
th e bodies that will assemble in 1 S75,
have reported, that in its opinion the
only alterations necessary in the Sen
ate chamber is to replace the present
b"kswith smaller ones, similar to
those iwcd in Congress, and lessen
the space a few inches between the
rows.
But the difficulty in altering the
h ill of the House is greater, and to
i commodate the two hundred mem
bers it w ill be necessary to erect a
uc story addition next the land of
lice, with entrance and rotunda fac
ing that building. This, it is thought,
can lx done without marring the
symmetry of the Capitol building,
i he entire addition resembling a por
tico or entrance. This being accom
plished the Speaker's stand can be
removed back into the new addition,
which, will afford ample room for it,
aud commodious transcribing and
wash rooms, and the entire space of
the present hall can be filled with
smaller desks, and it is thought the
two hundred members can be as well
accommodated as the hundred now
arc. The estimate is that the entire
cost of erecting the additional building
specified, buying desks, and making
the necessary alterations, will not
exceed twenty thousand five hundred
dollars.
MILLARD l ILLHOnr.
Hon. Millard Fillmore, whose death
at Buffalo, on Sunday night, M arch
Sib, has already been announced was
born Jan. 7th, 1800, at Summer Hill,
Cayuga Co., New York. Hisearlyed
ncational advantages were few, but
by perseverance he did what he,
could to overcome his defects, and at
the age of nineteen lugan the study
of law, in which he subsequently be-,
came proficient He commenced prac
tice in 1823, at Aurora; in was
admitted as an attorney, and in 1S30
as a counsellor in the Supreme Court
of the State. May 1, 180, he re
moved to Buffalo. In 1832 be asso
ciated himself in practice with the
late Judge Hall, w ho had been a stu
dent in his office, and in 1S3C, the
late Hon. Solomon G. Haven was ad
mitted to the firm, which, tinder the
name of Fillmore, Hall & Haven,
had a State reputation, and lasted
until 1830.
From 1829 to 1832 Mr. Fillmore
served in the State Assembly, where
he became, ju&rkcd by his advocacy
of the act to abolish imprisonment
for debt, passed in 1831. He w as a
member of Congress for three terms
1S33-5 and 1837-41 and a portion
of the time chairman of the Commit
tee on Waves and Means, iu which
position he originated the Tariff law
of 1842. In Congress Mr. Fillmore
acted w ith the Whigs, He favored
the abolition of slavery In the Dis
trict of Columbia, and of the klave
trade between the States, opposed
the admission of Texas as a slave
State, and advocated a ' protective
tariff. From 1842 to 1817 Le prae-'
ticed his profession at Buffalo, but in
the latter year was elected - Stat

administration the following note
worthy bills became laws: Utah
Territory, Texas boundary, Califor
nia State, New Mexico Territory,
Fugitive Slave and abolition of slave
trade in the District of Columbia.
This series of measures were all in i
the nature of compromises between
the North and the South, and, as was
natural, some were distasteful to one
section and some o the other. The
passage of the Fugitive Slave M.r!
and President Fillmore's signature '
thereto caused great excitement at j
the North where the administration j
lost favor in the eyes of the anti-slavery
party, without gaining the adhe
rence of the pro-slavery partisans.
The result was the death of the Whig
party, whost last President Millard
Fillmore was. At the end of his
terra be returned to Uuffalo, and in
155-C visited Europe, lathe fall
of 1S5G he became the Presidential
candidate of the American party, but
the movement most wofully miscar
ried, and as one of the results Mr.
Fillmore was defeated. Since that
time he has not mixed with politics,
though it is understood that his pred
ilections have been tow ards the Dem
ocratic as the conservative party of
the country. At home he has always
been honored and respected, and has
held the position of President of the
Buffalo Historical Society, and en-
joyed other tokens of the esteem of
his neighbors. Until quite recently,
Mr. Fillmore had enjoyed good
health; but in February he had a
stroke of paralysis, which caused his
death on the 8th insts Pill sburgh

The foremost statesman of Amer
ica Las dropped suddenly from the
ranks of Lis associates, and lies to
day an inanimate, corpse in the city
that has beeu, for nearly a quarter of
a century, the scene of his patriotic
labors, and for the most of that time
his home. He Lad a technical resi
dence in the State which he represen
ted, but of late years he was there so
seldom that his domicile was rather
a legal fiction than a substantial fact
For the last three or four years his
vacations, as a general rule, were
spent in Washington, and while other
Senators were engaged in profession
al duties, or resting quietly at their
homes, or travelling abroad with
their families, he remained at the
Capital and studied the questions
which were likely to become the sub
ject of legislation. He was a labori
ous student and a patient investiga
tor, as well as a prolouna thinner;
and when he spoke he had a right to
assume the air and manner of one who
knew that he was standing on solid
ground. Massachusetts crowned him
with her highest honors, and gave
him a royal welcome ' whenever he
consented to visit his native city; but
his devotion to his public duties was
so complete that neither the society
of beloved friends nor the applause
of his admiring fellow citizens could
win .Liia from his labors, except for
brief- intervals, which were uot fre
quent '
This generation will not be able to
do Mr. Sumner justice. He will loom
out a great- character in history, and
it w ill be ' the wonder of those who
succeed ui that we did not set up his
etatue while ho lived. .It was his
fortune good or ill) to have lived a
half century before the mass of his
countrymen could comprehend the
principles for which he so bravely
contended. , He stood ; upon a higher
piano than tbo average Btatemen of
his time. - Ten years ago those who
believed fn the abstract justice of bis
political theories considered him an

withstanding this, he was the friend )t,jut Mrg Wm I 8tor at a rccent
of the lowly, and devoted his life to
securing equal and exact justice to
the humblest of his fellow men, but
it must be confessed that he kept
himself away from coutatt with the
masses for whose rights he labored
so zealously.
Mr. Sumner's great powers matur
ed early. lie was a writer on consti
tutional law before he was admitted
to the Bar; and he was offered a
chair in the Law School of the llarv-
ard University before he tried a ease
. , . , , ,
in Court. The orations which he de -
livercd thirty years ago are quite as
finished and classical as those which
i.M...i,t hmr. ftw hi n.
tered public life. Like Milton,
i
-w
delighted in showing his scholarship,
and he could not engage even in an
incidental debate without citing some
illustration from the classic authors,
ne bad a habit of using Greek quo
tations in his prepared speeches which
were oftentimes, taken from authors
whom nobody but Greek professors
had ever heard of. His pedantry
was oftentimes annoying to his less
learned associates. When the able
Southerners were in the Senate his
technical knowledge of the law was
of great advantage to bim, and be
often used it with telling effect.
Although a Whig, Mr. Sumner was
elected to the Senate by a coalitiou
of Free Soilers and Democrats
Upon the death of President Taylor
all the members of his Cabinet re
signed. Mr. Fillmore appointed Mr.
Webster to succeed Mr. Clayton as
Secretary of State, and this made
the vacancy that brought Mr. Sum
ner into the arena of national poli-
tics. His first great speech was a
protest against the enactment of the
Fugitive Slave law. Mr. Fillmore
signed this bill and ended bis politi
cal carcei. Mr. Sumner opposed it,
and won such power and influence
that the country could not afford to
do without his services to the day
of bis death. It is a singular coinci
dence that these two eminent men
should have ended their earthly jour
ney almost together. They represen
ted two distinct types of Northern
statesmanship, the conservative and
the progressive, and the retireme nt
of the one while in the full zenith of
bis powers, and the labors and the tri
umphs of the other through the event
ful years that suc-jeeded, abundantly
show which served his country best.
Another coincidence we cannot
omit In a time of great political
excitement, when partisan zeal usurp
ed the place of reason and discretion,
the Massachusetts Legislature passed
a resolution censuring Mr. Sumner
for what was considered an ill-advised
vote in the Senate. On the last
day that he spent in the Senate Cham
ber he saw his colleagac, (M' . Bout
well,) rise in his place and read the
certified record of the proceedings of
the Legislature which gave notice to
all the world that Massachusetts had
recalled the hasty net, and by a unan
imous rote had declared that her
illustrious eon had done nothing
worthy of censure. When his fel
low-citizens read his last injunction
to Jodge - Hoar how devoutly . they
win man Heaven that lliey were
permitted to do this act of justice be
fore death made it forever impossi
ble! "Take care of my Civil Rights
bill." To secure the constitutional
guarantee of equal rights to every
American citizen was the burden of
his life, and when he was about to
enter the valley of the shadow of
death he made this last request of
his trusted friend, and then went to
his leward. Balitimore American.

the Howard Committee fitted up the
basement of a building in Howard

without price. They serve a sub
stantial supper of good soup, bread,
and coffee. This costs nt the whole

FEMININE INTEMPERANCE.
Intemperance is by no means con
fined to the men of New York. In
deed the vice is wide-spread, and is
not limited by sex.' The wives and
daughters of the "best families" are
addicted to the maddening bowl, and
are as much the slaves of appe
tite as their fathers and brothers.
They get it first by the use of wine in
the social circle then the exhaust
ion resulting from late hours, and ex
citement calls for stimulents as a sus
tained And once fastened there is
an end. Such habits grow on wo
men faster than on men, and are
more certain to stay. Thousands of
fashionable women leaders in soci
ety have in their rooms the brandy
bottle, every day requiring more and
more to satisfy the cravings of an
alchoholized J system. Does it not
show? Not at first, or indeed for a
long time. The art of the enamclcr
hides thofte 'ugly red blotches.
But finally it gets beyond the cnam
ler's'art the lady in 'a debauch
makes an exhibition of herself the
secret is out,j and with no restraint
she devotes herself entirely to it and
goes down to the pit. " It is time that
a reform be inaugurated in the homes
of the wealthy. There' is but little
use of talking reform or ' temperance
so long as wine is 'set before every
gnest by the ' lady of the house,
and stronger drinks by the head there

before hisdeath he had several
friends invited to dine with him. It
. . .
is a singular cuiuciuence that his
death occurred the day after the res
olutions as the Massachusetts Legis
lature repealing their previous cen
sure of bis course regarding the bat
tle flags had been read in his pres
ence in the L'. S. Senate. He will be
sadly mourned here by a host of per
sonal friends, and be will go down in
history as one of the greatest and
purest of American patriots and
statesman. Eminent for scholarshii
and oratory, be will be best remem
bered as the devoted advocate of free
dom to the American slave and to
the security of the civil rights of the
colored race. Many have thought
him extreme in his views, but no one
who knew his real character has ques
tioned the purity or his motives. All
must admire his unswerving adhe
rence to convictions of right though
they most widely dissent from bis
opinions.
The election returns from New
Hampshire will be in by the time
this reaches the eye of your readers.
At present there appears to be a close
run for both Governor and Legisla
ture. This State has oscilated for
many years past back and forth be
tween the two parties, and if it is
lost this year, through tho running of
a lemperance ticket, there will be no
national significance, though croakers
will try to make of it a huge bug
bear. The Howard Court Martial was
occupied to-day in reading document
ary evidence. The Court is now full
and it will proceed regularly. Little
doubt is entertained among those who
knew this soldier who left his right
arm on the battle Geld, that he will
be vindicated in the trial from all
dishonorable conduct charged against
him, whether it be sins of omission
or commission.
A bill has been reported from the
Committee on Printing authorising
the committee to inquire whether, in
view of the abolition of the franking
privilege, the Government Printing
Office cannot be dispensed with.
This proposition sounds rather old in
these progressive times, when prin
ter's ink is such a power in the land.
The Treasury Department is to be
reorganized, aud the Civil Service
Committee of the House are engag
ed in preparing a bill for the pur
pose. The clerk of the U. S. Supreme
Court gave a grand dinner party on
Tuesday evening to the judges of
that Court and others of his friends.
I I A bill was passed in the House,
yesterday, amending the act of Feb.
14, 1871, granting pensions to sol
diers and sailors of the war of 1812,
and restoring to the pension rolls
those names that bad been stricken
therefrom lor disloyalty. Also a bill
to increase the pensions of soldiers
who have been totally disabled; also
allowing $30 to soldiers who have
loot an eye, to enable them to pro
cure an artificial one.
The Republic .Magazine, the only
exclusively political work now pub
lished in this country, has just issu
ed a new number, being the third of
the second volume The contents are
fresh and of the most important char
acter. All the live questions of the
day are discussed from a standpoint
of statesmanship-rather than that of
the partia;i, and the greatest care
seems to be taken to propound with
truthfulness and precision tho most
important aspects of politics as a
science, and as a growth of national
experience. No one who values Ke
pifblican government should be long
without this text book of political
knowledge. ...
Sworn statements of Judge Dur
ell, Mrs. Norton and Hon. Caleb
Gushing have been filed in the Dur
11 impeachment case contradicting
the testimony of Mrs. Myra Clark
Gaines in her prayer for the impeach
nieut of Judge Durcll, of Louisiana.
It is thought by many that Mrs.
Gains' mind has been so long on the
strain regarding intricate law ques
tions, and her feeble organization has
been so worn upon by a nervous san
guine temperament continually agi
tated that her mental powers have
been impaired, so as to unsettle her
judgment concerning her numerous
transactions with courts, vc. lears
of such anxiety as hers would be
likely to unsettle the strongest intel
lect, as illustrated in Dickens' "Blenk
House." I
Numerous letters are received by
Congressmen from the half million
of Russian Mennonitics who desire
to locate together in this country, if
properly encouraged. They have
large means and arc au upright peo-
j '. resembling the Friends, or Qua-
kers. and would be a most valuable
acquisition to our western country.
The appropriation for West Point
has been reduced 7 per cent, less
than that of last year by the House
Committee. This is paring down to
the quick, ns it is also proposed to
increase the, eadcta in tho proportion
of the iucrease of membership in the
House.
As the general subject of reducing
expenses by throwing clerks and em
ployees out of employment in the va
rious Departments is considered and
debated, it is losing its favor among
the members. The facts are coming
out that no perceptible relief to tax
ation can be effected in this way, as
at the most, the reduction of about
300 employees will only amount to
about $300,000, a mere drop in the
national bucket, while the Govern
ment will probably suffer financially
in consequence to a much greater
amount. Mr. Bandall, the Demo
cratic leader, is still harping on my
daughter, because he well knows
that a wholesale reduction will dam
age the Republican partv next fall
more than anything else that could
occur.
The numerous claims for the $15,
000,000 allowed the U. S. by the
Geneva award is causing much
trouble, and the fund is likely to be
come an elephant on the hands of the
Government on account of the vari
ous diverse demands for its distribu
tion. The letter of Genl. Beauregard, of
New Orleans, to Senator Gordon, of
Georgia, on tho subject of political
troubles in Louisiana is such as might
be expected from this artilleryman.
"He njx-aku pliu cannon. Ore ana sniokc.anJ
bounce;
llu given tlic tuslinailo with Mi tonsil?;
Our car are cul(?elled."
. He don't seem to know what he
wants; for while he calls all the set
tlers iu Louisiana, who a-c opposed
to his own views "merciless adven
turers w ho are the cause of all our
trouble," he Apposes present acquies
ence iu the Kellogg government until
the fall elections, and says "an elec
tion of a new Legislature would be
merely perpetuating the Kellogg
usurpation." He threatens us with
"a day when sonic bold men shall
gather force enough to thrust Con
gress from the Capital." It makes
our flesh crawl to think of a sally on
the Capital by bis friends, the Colfax
murderers, who killed over a hundred
defenceless Begrocs with fire and
sword. Of course they are not mer
ciless. Oh no ! And he is not a par
tisan in the least. He has retired
from politics to a railroad monopoly,
where he has learned meek submis
sion and confirmation in State rights
doctrines. At the same time he op
poses non-iiiterfcreuce, suggesting a
l'ol!ax remedy, if Congress docs not
keep the people down, while ex-rebels
elect their friends to all the offices.
It. were well to inquire:
"What cannoneer l'ut thislustv tilcx?"'

Washi.nutox, March 11. Senator
Sqmner died at a quarter to 3 o'clock.
He passed away calmly and without
a struggle,
During the last two hours of his
illness bis intclect seemed to be much
clearer, and he was perfectly con
scious to the lust, this condition be
ing doubtless the result f bis recov
ery from the effect of the morphine
which bad been freely administered
to him this morning to relieve him of
the intense pail which he suffered.
His sufferings towards the last seem
ed intense, and he several times ex
claimed "I want quiet. . I am tired."
He recognized friends w ho came iu
to the room, and one" of the last to
whom he spoke was ex-Attorney
Hoar, ot Massachusetts, to whom he
saidijrTakc care of my Civil Bights
Bill."
About a quarter before 3 o'clock
he was attacked by a flight spasm,
in which he died.' Around tho bod
at the time were ex-Attorney Gen
eral Hoar, Dr. W. P. Johnson of this
city, Major Ben. Perley Poore, Geo.
T. Downing and James' Wormley.
Other Mends, who had been with the
dying Senator, throughout the day,
had left just previous, not anticipating
that death would Iks so soon. Sena-.

breathed his last,, but Mr. Sumner
was too near disolutiou to recognize

spasm which in a short time culmin
ated in his death, that he wanted to
talk to him about his health, as he
was afraid he was working too bird.
Dr. Brown Seipiard, of New York,
who attended Mr. Sumner ia Paris,
and who has been his consulting
physician for the past fifteen years,
who arrived here on the late train
this evening in response to the tele
gram sent him early this morning an
il 'unceiiig Mr. Simmers illness, and

his attendance here.
After viewing the !ody at the resi
dence of deceased, Dr. Brown Se
quard had a consultation with Dr.
Joseph, Talier Johnson, the atten
ding physician of th Lite Senator, in
regard to au autopsy, arid it was
agreed that should such a:i examina
tion be considered necessary but in
regard to which no definate conclu
sion has been reached it will not
take place until after the remains ar
rive in Boston.
The physicians who attended .Mr. S.
in his last illness, wcte Drs. Joseph
i
j Tuber Johnson, W. I'. Jnhnston.N"
Lincoln and Surgeon (Jer.cra! Karnes,
all agree in the opinion that his
death was caused by angina pector
is, a disease arising from the ossifica
tion ot the corronarv artery, and
which invariably proves fatal ai'itr a
few paroxisms. Dr. Brown Sequard,
on the other hand, expressed the
opinion to-night thai death resulted
from the rupture of a blood-ve..-i at
the heart.
After Mr. Sumner htid the p n..x-
jysins his body
remained co'.l

tee to be appointed ly the Massachu

About the last wordsof the deceas
ed Senator were expressed to Jtidge
K. K. Hoar, and were: ' Tell Iimer
son I love him and revere him."
this sentence was uttered about ten
minutes before bis death, and just
after it escaped his lips a paroxysm
seized him, in which he appeared
to suffer severely, and he passed
away a few minutes after the sp ism.
His strength seemed to iucrease from
10 o'clock this morning to the time
of his death. Weston Powers, a son
