Stales Senate in the afternoon of the
10th inst., and on the night of that day
rapidly rcw worse of heart disease.
At 6 o'clock on Wednesday morning,
the llth, the painful announcement was
made that the great St hater lay co lii
death bed, auJ fliaf Lut a few boura at
most of life were his. At two o'clock
and filtj minutes of that da; the llth
be diet?. An hoar afterward the
cad news Lad beeti clicked in every
capita! and chief thoroughfare in the
ciriiiicd world. So tudden iu the
announcement that the nation a., as tt
were, shocked to a momentary stillness.
Business; was suspended at the White
House; Congress adjourned; lgal
bnntness in the Courts was postponed
an3 judges doffrd (he eraiine and came
dofc'a from the bench ; Legislatures ad
journed, and the public paused in its
rush, and in subdued drniL-anpr and
gentle accents rebelled its deep regret !
and sorrow. ' I
Charles Sutuaer was born January 6,
1S11, in Boston, Massachusetts. He j
was educated at Harvard, pursued the
atuJr of law. and was admitted to the
(
bar of Worcester in 1S24. In April,!
1851. he was elected to the United j
States Senate. He was there scarce!; j
a jer wheu he proclaimed that "Free- j
dom is national and slavery is section
al." It Wis j-ist the converse cf the
prevailing j-oiitical opinion of that time,
and startled the natioti and the world
almost as greatly as when the declara- j
tion was made in 177G, that "ail men i
are born tree and equal." He was pro- j
claimed a political heretic, aDd' for his I
adherence to that opinion, and by sua- j
taioing it with his masterly ability, was !
compelled to pass the ordeal of the
bludgeon of the Southern chivalry,
from which he received the germ of the
disease that so suddenly ended his life
one week ago. The extinction of slav
ery he desired should be brought about
by the education of the American peo
ple to the enormity of its wrongs and
crimes on the human race. He desired
its abolition by peaceful means of law,
vf legislation. To this end his efforts
were given. He saw with regret and I
sorrow the approaching stcrm of rebel- j
lion for the perpetuation of human slav- j
ry. His way was not abolition by tht
word, but by moral suasion ; but when
the shock of battle came he atood firm
ly by the side of the Government.
Otherwise be could not do justice to
bis conscience.
He had another idea, which is ex
emplified in the Treaty of Washing
ton," namely, "The peaceful settlement
of international disputes and once
the world has so far progressed in mat
ters of true civilization that nations
will settle their difficulties and disputes i
without resort io arms, then will !
Ch&rlrs Sumner be estimkted at Lis '
worth, Lut not till then. Our civiliza-1
tion is yet too crude lo correctly i
appreciate him. Hw he subordinated J
cunu'tDg and craft, the qualities which j
some wen would pass for greatness. j
ile trod such qualities under foot and
always held them beneath him. If he
Lid been so minded how ably he could
have used them.
The colored race idolize hiin for what
he Las done for tbem. Mankind gen
erally honor htm for Lis straggle for
the advancement of the rights of man-1
kind. The frcholsf and the philosopher
considered Lim a memt-er of their
srBtl and showered their best consid
erations on Lim without stint. The
aristocracy of Europe admired hiin for
Lis culture, and Anglican fecioty re
ceived him always with welcome for
Lis integrity, purity, fine manners and
(-race of person, and rare and superior
conversation. That he failed to fiad
the quality f congeniality in the com
panion 1 e c!i so was a greit misfortune
to himself a! cc, Lut ou that account j
co just criticism can arise. When are
we to Lave his like again !

The poet' sensibilities are correct.
The face of a dead friend may awaken

rif those who sricerely loved bim while

not be so. The gaze of the pubHe is

Th3 Temperance Cause at Harrifi
barg. The Repeal of the Local Option Law
.frgued before the Committee on Vice
and Immorality Ladies take Posses
sion of the Hull "Praise God, from
whom all Ll'Ssinzt flow," sung by the
Vast Audience both Inside end Out
side of the Building.
The ladies of Pennsylvania are as
deeply alive to the suppression of the
liquor business as their Western sis
ters, they are howe'vtr, organizing in
a different way. Generally, they have
not inaugurated prayer-meetings in and
in frout of saloons, and taverns and
other places where liquor is sold, but
they have gone quietly to work aud
organized societies for prayer, and now
in most of the large towns throngbt the
State, there are regular daily prayer
(nettings held for the tetnperenee e ause.
The cause assumed an unlooked lor
phrase last W'eduesday evening at Har
risburg. That evening bad beeu set
ap.rt by the Committed on Viof and Im
morality, to hear argument, by men in
favor of repeal of the Local t )ptio n La w.
The liquor men thought their case
was swiiuing delightfully, and expected
an easy conquest of the Committee.
They expected a house fall of the ad
herents of the traffic, how disappocted!
Such an audience as the Legislative
Hall filled with ladies bad not been
dreamed of, their silent presence threw
confusion into the ranks of the traffic.
The Ilarrisburg Telegraph; describes
the meeting as follows. At an early
hour in the evening the women were
fl ecking toward the Capitol building iu
great numbers, aud when half past
seveu arrived, the committee could
hardly gai'i admittance. Mr. Wain,
right, the Chairman of t lis Committee
0:i Vice and Immorality, accompanied
by Messrs. Robert Liduell, Wm. J.
Friday, Marker Rush, E. Werthaiier,
T. D. t ascy, and James Lit toll, made
their way through the crowd, aud Mr.
Wainwrjfht called the meeting to
order, and notified Mr. LitteU be would
hear anything he bad to say.
Mr. Littell came forward and said
be was astouished at the immense
audience. He supposed they were to
uieet the committee quietly and lay
their casi befors the Legislature, like
law abiding citizens. He was in favor
of a fair licei te law which would
take the sals of liquor nut of
the hands of bad men. I hate a
drunken man as bitterly as any of you.
You cannot legislate on the jtppetite.
Teach them to g.ivern their appetite
and restrain themselves, and yon will
then do iuore in the cause of temper
ance. He then excused himself for
detaining tha committee aud retired
under a cloud.
General Pennypacker, of Chester,
was the nest speaker. Il said thit
legislation was safest which looked be
yoad the present feverish excitement.
He arraigned the inquisitorial system
under the local option law, which
drags our citizens to prison, and bis
neighbor bas to ransom Lim with hun
dreds of dollars. The law, be claimed,
is practically a nnllity now, because it
was too severe, fur there had been n
prosecution before the Grand Jury of
Chester county last term, although the
law is violated from one end of the
county to the other. The temperance j
men had formed a league and would
say to one, M You have violated the
laws, but we will let yon go if you pay
so much into our treasury, which Le
did, and they let Lim go. " They said
to anc'ttief, " Unless you contribute
$200 to the school fund we will prose
cute yen. "
They took an old druggist of Coats
rille who Lad furnished liquor on a
doctor's certificate, dragged bim to jail
and demanded $1,000 as the ransom;
and now when a magistrate sentences a!
man iz Chester county, be goes out of I
his way to say That " it is not for the
Court to question the propriety of law."
Local option Las driven the people out
side o! the law, and these habits are
formed, and appetites created whicb
cannot be changed by such Enactments.
Thus this irresponsible Committee con.
trol things because the reguitr law of
ficers will not prosecute, and it bas
thus bted cp with as a spirit of law
lessness and a disregard of law which
is demoralizing in the extreme.
Mr. Hinpmax, of Lycoming, was
tho next speaker, and continued at
some length in the same strain. There
had been mire men sent to thi peni
tentiary from this county since local
option has been a law than since it was
made a ccunty. Does that speak well
of the moral reform? There are
pedlars who go around with calico, aad
a jug of wLisky under the calico. DtKs
thaC speak well for the effects of the
law? The Williaiusport movement
cancelled ail Lis arguments.
A lull was here had. Mr. W'ait-
wright called opoa any one else who !
desire! to speak, but do one responded,
and an old gray-headed gentleman rose
and addressing the audience, said:
All those in favor of local option will
ri:e and sing, 'Praise God from whom
al! blessings Cow;' " whereupon the
entire audience rose to their feet and
made the hall ring with the old tune.
A large audience bad gathered out
side the hall, in the rotunda, and on
tlie pavement outside the building.
There people took op the song of praise
as raised inside, and such a song of
earnest, heartfelt praise to God uever
before went op from the Legislative
chamber of the Commonwealth of
Peuniy'iania to the throne of Grace.

Death of Milliard Fillmore.
" Millard FIT1 more the thirteenth
President of the United States, died at
Buffalo on the 8th inst. He was the
second child in the family of a pioneer
in Cuyuga county. New York, and was'
born the seventh day of thia century.
His earliest years were w.thoutany ad
vantages, and he was an apprentice to
a fuller and a farm hand, attending the
district schools in winter, until in Lis
nineteenth year, Lis father removed
He then began to read law, and after
conquering obstacles that would Lave
daunted many, was admitted to the
bar in 1823. He removed to Buffalo
in 1830, and was elected Comptroller
of the State in 1847. Hir first politi
cal distinction was won in 1823, when
he was elected to the Legislature as an
anti-Mason. He was twice re-elected ;
elected to Congress on the anti Jack
son ticket in 1S32; again as a Whig in
1S3G-33-40, aud declined in 1342
He favored receiving anti-slavery pe
titions, internal improvements and a
protective tat iff. He was a candidate
for the Vice Presidency in 1 844 ; was

New York that year; was elected Vice
President on the Whig ticket with Gen
eral Taylor in 843 Taylor's death

ring his Administration. He retired to
private life at Buffalo on the expira
tion of his term, and was a candidate
for the Presidency on the ticket of the
American party in 1856, aud as mch
received the vote of Maryland. He!
was not promiuent during the war. )

How the Ladies Elected a Cold
M ater TlcLet In Iowa.
Ti e ladies of Atlantic, Iowa, have
set a good example to the crusading
women in the matter of breaking up
the whii-ky busiuess. Evidently be
lieving that there is as much efficacy in !
work as in prayer, they took advantcge j
of the annual city election on Monday
last, stormed the polls and successfully j
carried them. The modus operandi was I
very simple. In the first place, during !
the campaign, they demanded officers I
who would not grant saloon-licenses ; !
and, to clinch the matter, they held aj
caucus and put a true blue, cold water I
ticket ia nomination. Then they got a I
pledge for the signature of voters who I
would abide by and support the nom- 1
inations. They circulated this freely
and got sufficient signatures for a uu-1
cleus to the good work. Having done
this, tbey prepared themselves for the
fight. Promptly at 7 o'elock on Mon
day morning they were on the ground,
and tbry stayed there until the polls :
closed at night. They hired the vil j
lage bass band, and it discoursed most ;
excellent temperance music, none of
the players taking a born during the
day. Tb only hand-organ in the vil
lage was also subsidized, and ground
its mournful musical modicum steadily
from a barrel hicb Lad never been
tainted with liquor. The buildings of
the town were decorated with flags and
banners. The ladies peddled the tick
ets, and, when the voting lagged, tb-y
talked and sang. Thus the day wore
on, and when the polls closed the tired
women took carriages and went home.
The result of their work was that their
ticket was elected entire by fifty ma
jority. Thus, by one day's good honest
work they routed their enemy, and will
not be aoBoyed with bim for a year
longer at least. The victory is a sug
gestive one to those who are engaged in
the temperance business wherever a
municipal election is pending. There
is bo more tfTtctife tfay to dispose of
whisky than to vote it down. It is bet
ter than closing p saloons and pouring
whisky into the streets, because new
ones may open again. It is better than
getting drunkards to sign pledges, be
cause they may Lreak tbeai. The la
dies of Atlantic have gone to the fuuo-tain-head
and acaled it up. The victory
tbey have won is a legitimate one.

TlTK fearful character of the famine
in India can hardly be Conip ehended
in this country. According to Lord
Northbroi'ke, Viceroy of India, ''thirty
millions o: psople are in deep distress,
aud fix millions of people are thrown
upon our hands to save or let perish."
Of course, the famine has been fore
seen, and for months the Govern.ueut
has been' busy with measures of relief.
It is confidently asserted that sufficient
fool is on hand. The great trouble is
lack of carnage. Still, money can do
much, and England stands ready to
pour OCT ronriey with desperate lavish
ness. Private subscriptions are being
called for, in England and Hindostan,
to supplement Government grants.
Queen Victoria unwisely headed the
London subscription with XI ,000. No
native henceforth dare to give more,
lest be should insult bis sovereign. At
a meeting held in Calcutta on the 4th
inst.. statistics ef the famine at that
time were read. In the Providence of
Tirhoot, one million people out of the
fout million population will have to be
eutirely supported for several months.
Altogether, the Patna Division will
have one and a bait million recipients
of relief. In other quarters the out
look is as gloomy. In many places the
people Lave but one meal a day.
" They are anxious, but wonderfully
patient." Even the higher classes
are forced to ask Government aid.
Everything within mortal power is
being doc to carry that aid where
ever it is needed. Bnt with the best
efforts, it is quite certain that Terr'
many will perish. Ptttsburgk' Gasrtte. J
The Temperance War.
New York, March 10. A large
temperance meeting was held to-night
at the Brooklyn Academy of Music,
under the auspices of the Catholic To
tal Abstinence Uuion. Rt. Rev. Bish
op Lau'ghlin and about twenty of his
clergy were present. Rev. Dr. Treet
and Rev. Wm. Keegan made strong
addresses, stirring the people to activ
ity in the temperance crusade. Twenty
temperance societies, numbering about
3000 people, were present.
OLCMBCS, Ohio, March 10. Sixty
two women, divided into five squad,
labored in the crusade to-day, with
about the usual experience. About
forty places were visited, but no signa
tures were ottained to the deaieis'
pledge. At several places heretofoie
visited the saloon and grocery keepers
frankly told the women their visits wer.
getting to be a nuisance and must be
stopped. At several places the women
were refused permission to pray on the
sidewalks.
Pattox, Ohio. March 10 The cru
saders to day, in detachments of twen
ty each, visited thirteen saloons on
Fifth and West Tbirty-eigbth streets.
A large and turbulent rabble followed
tbem, and the uproar at times wa deaf
ening, and the voices of prayer and
song were inaudible. Rioald jests
were bandied about by the outside mob,
with indecent loud talk and swearing.
Ciowds of beer-dri; kers pressed into
the saloons and drauk as fasc as they
could, inockiu the pray inj women with
loud blasphemy aud louder bacchana
lian songs. Even women joined in the
ribaldry, and at oue place flung out
pieces of boh-gna sausage and pretzels
among the crusading women, who meek
ly bore these insults and persisted aud
prayed.
The band which wen to Vf est Thirty
eighth street passed the corporation
line to the saloons where the veterans
from the Soldiers' Hume mostly con
gregate, and being beyond police pro
tection were subjected to shamfal in
sults of bummers. The tendency of
jucb infamous conduct is to inflame the
public mind. This was demonstrated
to-night by the greatest ttmperance
mass meetings yet held. A mats of
people crowded into the First Presby
terian hnrch till no standing room re
mained. The iusults which had stung
tho women to the quick wer merely
reported, and the etlect was to waken
up the feeling cud to make the crusa
ders more determined than ever. The
police labor patiently and heroically to
protect the womeu and preserve the
peace, but their taik is difficult and
delicate. The wcrk will be resumed
to-morrow.
New York, March 10 All the
liquor saloons in Greenville, Darke
county, Ohio, arc closed, the result of
two weeks' crusading. There is great
rejoicing there.
Daniel Boone Baker was one of the
party who robbd a mail car on the

Lim bad been given up, ho finally set
tled in Corvalis, California, under the
name of John Bent. He was only
25 years old, and with the evident
intention of beginning a new and de
cect life, Le became a reputable citi
zen. Nobody there knew of his past,
and a year ago he married the daugh
ter of one of the richest men iu the
place. It all ended, however, io Lis
being ferreted out and arrested. His
wife was nearly crazed, and he was
reckless. On the way back to prisou
he tried twice to kill himself once by
cutting his wrist with a sharpened nail,
and again by throwing himself under a
locomotive. A petition for his pardon
is being signed by Lis friends in Cor
