RALPH WALDO UMERSON and "Wendell Phillips are compared in a very interesting manner In an ar- tlclo which appears on the first page of to-day's issue. IF those London peace-makers don't hold that meeting before long , some of them may not be there when it is held. Theyare liable to be Bleeping the long sleep on the old battle Gelds of the Crimean war. IT is expected that an effort to pass a supplemental silver bill , pro viding for unlimited coinage , will be undertaken at once. The bill is all ready , and let it come. If tbe people are in congress lotus hear from them. A NEW ORLEANS journal warns tbe president not to appoint Packard to a Federal position. Now what would that terrible Journal do if Hayes ahould appoint Packard to an office ? In fact , what would Iiouisiana do about it ? ONE year ago to day , President Hayea was inaugurated , blucethat time he has done some good work , has left some things undone , matfe some mistakes. Ho reconciled Boutb Carolina , and Louisiana well , Louisiana is not quite so much reconciled as she promised to be. THE Chicago Tribune has taken some of the religious Journals to task for publishing loose advertise ments. That is a good idea ; and let the Tribune open out , while it is in that line of business , on some of the infamous trash published these days and distributed over ( ho laud for our boys and girJs to read. PAUL CASSAONAG , n French jour- nalistand politician , , hasjusf'tilled his man" on the "field of honor. " For the third time this eminent humbug has shot or stabbed one of his countrymen. If Franco would give Mr. CaEsagnac a shave on the national razor it would be a good thing for tbe country. THE Irish World comes out with n fluely illustrated Robert Emmet centennial number. Emmet was Inrti one hundred years ago to-day , The dyiug speech of that brave and eloquent Irishman is given in full ; and how onn of hia countrymen can read it , and not ba thrilled with an ambition to finish the Ajprk he be gan , we cannot understand. Cer. talnly , a greater oration never fell from the llos of man. LITTLE SDNEET Cox sank bohitd the hills the ether night wilhfiut much cf a "halo" of glory about his limited head. The Speaker entirely ignored the noisy little Democrat from New York in his attemrl to make a fool of hinuclf and assault Hayea. THE second dav of April will scon be upon us , and with it the day of our next municipal election , when fix eage men will be chosen to oc cupy 'the aldermauic positions , ft ftU which in this country are thefiral fltepping stones from tbe shades of private life to the high station of presidency. Audrew Johnson vras * once an alderman , and be became I president. It is to be honed that , f * * following his bright example , some of our aspiring and ambitious mer chants will not feel too jroud to al low their names to be used for these important trusts , and do themselves credit and the country Fomo good. A VERY interesting letter from our Denver correspondent appears i-Isowhere in this issue. Jt gives a concise and comprehensive descrip tion of tbe water works of the me tropolis of Colorado and illustrates the financial progress of tbe com * pany. Denver , it will be observed , has a system of works ombracfng fifteen mtlea of pipe and a large number of hydrants , adequate to the demands of a growing city. The company owning the worku are beginning to renl'za handsDmo prof its from their investments. Cor- sidering that these works were built several years ago , when material and labor was nearly thirty per cent more costly than now , it is not eurpriiicg that it has taken several 3 ears before the returns from the investment began to be profitable , Omaha , thougti much more unfa , f v jrably situated for its water supply , I can , under the reduced rate of labor aud material now secure water works equal , if not superior , to those of Denver , at a aost not exceeding that of the Den * ver works ; and while the opportun ity exists for a company of capital- iits to tenure a liberal charter aud a -pajlng investment , it would bo well for njn of means to take time by the forelock and proceed in this un dertaking. At present no doubt ex'sts ' but what a * reasonable charter could be secured ; but , unless tbis is undertaken soon by outside cap. ilnliB'.B , this enterprise must ere long be taken In baud by the city itself. FKA5KIA1V WADE. But few of tbe earlV leaders of the Republican jarty are left. Qreeley , deward , Sumner , Chase , Lincoln , Morton , Curtin , Andrew , Fessen- den , and last , but by no means east , "Old 'i'bad. " Stevens , have eng since passed into the unknown future. Associated with theae em inent men in the great struggle against slavery , was Benjamin F. Wade , no seemed to have been created especially for that work , and the faithful manner in which executed his part is a matter of history. Ho , too , has been called from earth ; and bo left it at tbe ripe old age of seventy-eight years , more than fifty of which was spent in the servica of his coun'.rymen. When Ben. Wade v/as one of the "wheel hcraea" of the Republican organization , plunder was not the object sought by either party in a political campaigu. It was a tre mendous struggle between two great sections of country for su premacy. The question of the extension of human slavery was the one direotly at isbue ; but indirectly , millions of dollars in property were at stake , and that great question which would not down the right of one man Jo rob another of his labor , his liberty , and his manhood , demand ed settlement. When lieu. Wade became active in political affairs , the Democratic party was in its glory. The Whig pirty had died with its great leader , Henry Clay. The Republican party was just organizing , and its mana. gers were young and inexperienced. In that period of bitterness and par- llamontary strife a few years prlpr to secession , Democratic Senators aud Representatives took tbcir own time and occasions to assail Repub lican Senators and Representatives. They had Congress and the country EO completely under their control , that a cowardly bully , one Brooks , a member of the United States Con gress , could sneak upon Sumner , aud , after the inhuman man ner in which an Indian or a panther would pounce upon its prey , almost take his life , and bis partizan friend * dared to applaud the act. But there were a few men with whom the valiant fire-eaters of the south , Dustalued by their milk aud water brethren north , did not care to grapple with. Thnd. Stevens , in tbe House , always uttered bis views without any attempt at smoothing over the rough places. It had once been announced that he was again to attack slavery , in that style pe culiar to the "old commoner , " and some of the more rabid slavery men had declared that ho should not speak. Stevens , surrounded by bullies , laid a six shooter on the desk before him , and made his re marks. In conclusion , he whirled upon the braggadocio member from Virginia who was one of the loudest - est , in proclaiming that he should not tpeak exclaiming , "And Vir ginia , tbe proud birthplace ofpresidents , has become a breeder of slaves for the Southern market. " Anybody who knows a bully , would know that Stevens was not molested. In the Seuate there were two men in particular with whom the South , crn hot-heads never courted contro versy One was William Pitt Fea- ceiideu , and the other waa Benja min F. Wade- Once when * "esstn- don was speakingho was Interrupted by one of the South Carolina Sena- tow , with the remark : "I ( such Eoutiments a3 yours prevail , we want dissolution right-away ; or , what Is better yet , a trial of right by might. " There was no begging Feaeuden did not know what that meaul ; but quicker than a flash he shot the answer back : "Don't de lay it on my accouut ; don't delay It on account of the * people at the A'ortta. " "Sturdy Old Ben" Wade and Robert Tcombs , of Georgia , never could get along. Toombs was the prince of Southern hoi-heads. He fairly hated Wade , aud Wade fully reciprocated the feelings of the ar dent Georgian. Toombs was elc- quen * , polished , able and corngcous. Wade was equally courageous , but less eloquent and less polished , al though he never failed to send his arrows of logic or sarcasm with uc- erriug aim. Wade deliyered a spee3h on slavery in which he took occasion to handle in that vigorous style characteristic of himself , the doctrine of human slavery , and he also expressed , with tolerabla free dom , his opinion of the men who Btutahied it. Toombs was furious ; and he intimated to a friend that II Wivie ever repealed euch eenli. menta as ho had on that occasion uttered , hu ( Toombs ) would chal lenge the man from Ohio to meet him on the field of honor. Wade heard or it , and of course lost no opportunity to repeat , in substance , what he bad said before. "Well , " fays iVade , to oue of Toombs' friends , ' ! wonder if he'll fight now. " ' 'Restassured he will ; Toorabs is uo coward , " responded the friend. "I hope he will challenge me , " muttered Ben. " 1 would have my choice of weipons. Lei's sec ; I w'll pin a little white paper over my heart , uud Toombs shall pin a little white paper over his ; we will fight with rifles a forty rods , aud if I don't cut that paper , d n me ! " Ben. Wade was considered one of the best jifla shots in the country , and the challenge was never sent The announcement of the death of Ben. Wade caused no eurprlse. Tbe telegraph informed us some time t-iuce that his end was near , and ail that could be doue was to send him messages of cheer , laden also with gratitude for tbe great work he had done. Mr Wade was a bitter partizan. But that is not against him. A man who is not a partizan is without a positive conviction ; and such a man citmot do any good nor tny Jjarm. He will have no enemies , it is true , but he will have no friends The Ohio statesman wa no H i-h mnn as that. Hia convictions tveru a part of him * self , and bis partisanship was as strong as his convictions. His friendships werejdeep , firm and true ; tie was au uncompromising foe , and like all great men , he was as gener ous ns he was bravo and honest. He has been called "Sturdy old Ben Wade , " of late years , because of his physical and mental vigor at an advanced ago. This was largely due to his strictly temperate habits. He did not use tobacco in any form ; was a hater of intemperate drinks , indeed cold water was hi3 only beverago. In conclusion let it be remembered that he was in office a greater portion of bis Ufa , and a charge of corruption was neyor laid at his door. Let the young men who read of the death of 'Sturdy Old Ben Wade" profit by his example. Let them be as true to their country ; b.o as true to their canvictions of duty ; and what is of fir more importance , b3 as true to themselves as was bo , and a ripe old age , with a lifo well spent which is the dearest of all consolations as the old man nears the future will be theirs.
