Thad. Stevens on Mr* Davis' Case.
Tho extraordinary speech ol the Penn?
sylvania Radical leader has created quite
a flatter, and hence wo make no- apology
for reproducing it at this late day. The
Atlanta Intelligencer says that the unex?
pected announcement of Stevens that
President Davis could Dot be convicted of
treason, and that he could only be tried
as a belligerent has created a profound
sensation, particularly among political
friends, some of whom now allege that
he is soured and means mischief to his
party, because of their having ignored his
leadership in the House. The bill which
tailed out this utterance from Mr. Ste?
vens, was that introduced by Lawrence
to hang Jeff. Davis?for that was its ob?
ject?which was up for consideration and
discussion on the 11th of December. We
copy below a full report of the remarks
of the Pennsylvania agitator, aud com?
mend a general perusal:
Mr. Stevens, of Pennsylvania, obtained
the floor and said: Mr. Speaker, I ap?
proach with great distrust all bills of this
sind, which are evidently brought for?
ward for the purpose of ascertaining how
we can convict men whom we cannot
convict under laws existing when the
crimes were committed. I do not believe
that it becomes this nation?I do not be?
lieve it is safe for us to undertake to pass
laws by which we can or may be able te
punish men, however guilty, that could
not be punished under the laws existing
when the crimes were committed. Could
we now change the Constitution so as to
change the place of the trial of traitors,
to say that the venue might be changed,
and that they should be tried by jurors
' Bummoned from another bailiwick ? The
Constitution and our laws provide very
carefully that, especially in the case of
treason, the party charged with the crime
must be tried at the place where the overt
act was committed, m a district previous?
ly ascertained by law, and by a jury from
that bailiwick. Now, any law which
!)rofesses to change that in any respect
ooks to me so much like an attempt to
commit judicial murder that I have al?
ways been afraid to attempt it. I am
afraid that the traitors in the South, if
tried under our existing Constitution and
laws, will not one of them be convicted.
I should never attempt to try them for
treason?I would try them as belligerents
under the law of nations and the laws of
war.
Mr. Lawrence of Ohio. We have no
reason to expect of the Administration
any such trial.
Mr. Stevens. I am stating what I
would do if I were the Administration.
[Laughter.] Now, aithough I would not
discourage trials for treason, I mention
this to snow that I am convinced that
none of these can ever be convicted of
treason under our present Constitution
and laws; and yet I would rather let
every man of them go unpunished for?
ever than make a law now by which they
could be punished. I think our govern?
ment would be endangered in its future
existence, in its sense of justice, in its
charactor before the world, by conduct of
that kind, more than it would by endur?
ing the evil. I think the British govern?
ment suffered more from its murder of
Russell, although it was done by means
of a court condemning him, than it would
have done had he been suffered to escape.
It was by just such contrivances as this
that that judicial murder was effected,
and by which the British governmont
suffered more than it would have done by
the escape of forty traitors. I think our
government had better be careful how it
tampers with the crime or the remedy. It
had better treat them as guilty partly of
a political offense and partly of offenses
malum in re, than now to attempt to pass
laws because otherwise the malefactors
might escape. This professes to be a bill
to make indefinite the prosecution of those
offenses which of all others should be
quieted by lapse of time. Although trea?
son is as high a crime as can possibly be
committed, yet there are so many engag?
ed in tho crime of treason and in rebellion,
and in my judgment there must be some
quieting law, and in my judgment there
ought to be. Now, it does not follow
that every traitor will escape who is not
prosecuted within three years of tho time
of the commission of the offense. The
statute never runs in any case, unless it
Ms possible to enforce the remedy. It
only runs from the time it was possible to
enforce the remedy. Por instance, I will
refor you to the men now in Europe?
Benjamin, Slidell and others; I do not
suppose that anybody will say, that while
they were abseut beyond seas the statute
of limitations would run. The statute
would bogin to run when tho time arrived
that they could be prosecuted. But
whether that bo or not, still, during the
time of war, during the prosecution of the
war, the crime continued; it was a con?
tinuing offense, and the offense continued
up to the time when peace shall be pro?
claimed, which it never yet has been. I
know that a gentleman in this city has
made publio a statement which he de?
sired to have considered as equal to the
decrees of James and Charles, of England,
overruling the law. But it is of no more
importance than so much waste paper.?
The question of peace or war is yet to be
decided by this party. I say there is no
peace. This nation is still in a belligerent
condition; and the conquered belliger?
ents are within the power of the conqueror,
to be dealt with as captives, not as crim?
inals. Therefore, sir, I can see no neces?
sity for a measure of this sort. But if
there was a necessity, I should certainly
object to any alteration of the law as it
bow exists m regard to treason, which
would enable the government to convict,
where it is confessed that a conviction
could not be obtained under the law as it
stood at the time of the commission of
the offense. I should be very glad to see
condign punishment inflicted upon many
of these men, bet not capital punishment.
I never realized the sufficiency of the
atonement made by the execution of tho
miserable Wire, a Dutchman, I believe,
with a hump baok, who was obeying the
orders of his superiors, and who, in ordi?
nary times, when men were tried aecor
ding to law, would never have been con?
victed, because his government was an
swerable, not ho. I do not believe that
the starvation of thousands of Union pris?
oners is to be atoned for by the execution
of one of the keepers.

Kindness Rewarded
It is a dreadful thing to be old and poor,
and have no home; but there is a deeper
depth of human calamity than this?it is
to have, in addition, an old age of wast
? ing, wearing sickness, which is often su?
perinduced by the constant depression of
mind which attends the consciousness of
being alone, friendless and in want. One
of the very best means of avoiding an
old a?e of destitution and bodily suffer?
ing is^to cultivato while young all the be?
nevolent and generous feelings of our na?
ture, never by any possibility allowing
an opportunity pass of befriending a fel?
low traveler, as we are passing alonglife's
journey, for sooner or later the reward
will come?the reward of a happy heart
and oftentimes a comfortable provision
for declining years.
In 1812, a wounded soldier was lying
helpless on the plains of Chalmette,a few
miles below New Orleans. A youth pass?
ing that way kneeled at his side, inquired
as to his wants, conveyed him to a shel?
ter, and remained with him until he was
able to leave for his homo in the city.
Nearly half a century later the wounded
soldier died, but old Judah Touro never
forgot the youth who helped him on the
battle field, and left him fifty thousand
dollars in money, besides some duties to
perform, which eventually yielded Mr.
Shepherd one hundred thousand dollars
more.
While living in New Orleans, about
the year 1850, a poor young doctor, with
a large family and a small practice, came
often into my office. He was always
courteous, always kind, and always sad ;
and who could be otherwise when anxie?
ty for to-morrow's bread for wifo and
children is always pressing on the heart ?
But there came a letter one day, with the
English post-mark, making inquiries for
a certain young American doctor who;
had greatly befriended an English gen
tleman during a long and dangerous at- j
tack of sickness in ihew Orleans a num?
ber of years before. This grateful gen?
tleman had died, and left our poor young
doctor a large estate.
Ten years ago and less, there lived in
the city of New York a clergyman
whose name and memory are sacred to
thousands of grateful, loving, revering
hearts. Ho has not been dead long; he
will never die out of the holy affections
of the people before whom ho came in
and went out so many years. Among
his people there was one man, and he was
of large wealth, who seemed to make it
his special business, as it was his highest
happiness, to see that his reverend pastor
wanted nothing. It was not a fitful caro.
It did not spring up in May and die long
before December came, but through
weeks and months and long years it was
always the same ; incessant, perennial,
gushing up always like a never failing
spring. The pastor died; his lovir.jr
watcher, by no fault of his own, failed r,r
almost millions; any recovery was i.uso
lutely hopeless. The grief that oppressed
him most was the loss of ability to help
the helpless. Men looked on and won?
dered, and began to question if Provi?
dence would let such a man come to want
in his gray hairs. But there was an eye
upon him. A man of very great wealth
said: "He must not suffer who cared so
well and so faithfully and long for myoid
minister. He is just the man I want to
attend to my estates, and ho shall have
all he asks for as compensation for his
services."
? "Have you any limbhorn bonnets?"
inquired a very modest miss of a shop?
keeper.
"Any what?"
"Any limbhorn bonnets."
"Any?you don't mean leghorn ?"
The young lady was brought to by the
proper restoratives.
? A gentleman who takes a business
view of most things, when recently asked
respecting a person of quite a poetic tem?
perament, replied: "Oh he is one of
those men who have soarings after the in?
finite and divings after the unfathomable,
but who never pays cash." There aro a
great many of that sort in the world.
? "Look out there I What are you
kicking my dog for." "I am kicking him
because he's full of fleas, and I don't want
to get them on my good clohes!" "Fleas,
the devil? Why, that dog sleeps with
mo." "Yes, darn you I know it; and
that's whar he gets thom."
? "Mr. Jones, have you a match ?"
"Yes, sir, a match for the devil, there
she is mixing up dough." Jones pointed
to his wife and* then "slid" tor the front
door and down the road, hotly persued
by a redheaded lady with a cistern-polo.
Poor Jones!
? A widow lady, sitting by a cheerful
fire in a meditative mood, shortly after
her husband's desease, sighed out: "Poor
fellow?how he did like a good fire! I
hope he has gone whero they keep good
fires."
? A young lady in San Antonio thinks
of going to California to get married, for
the reason that she has been told that in
that country the men folks "rock the cra?
dle." Her bead's right.
? A boarder at one of tho hotels was
observed to shed tears when the cheese
was passed. Upon being asked the cause
of his agitation, he replied that "the
cheese was a very moving sight."
? Josh Billings says: "There is only
one advantage that I can see in going to
the devil, and that is the road is easy, and
you are sure to get there."
? There is a man in Cororado so thin
that when the Sheriff is after him he
crawls into his rifle and watches his adver?
sary through the touch hole.
? Why are young ladies kissing each j
othor like an emblem of Christianity??
Because they are doing unto each other
as they would men do unto them.
? '1 do not say," remarked Mr. Brown,
"that Jones is a thief, but I do say that if
his farm joined mine I would not keep
sheep."
? If any one speak ill of thee, consider
whetbor he has the truth on hfs side; and
if so reform thyself, was the wise remark
of an old philosopher i
THE HEW YEAR.

Old Time lias turned another page
Of Eternity and Truth,
He reads with a warning voice to age,
And whispers a lesson to youth.
A year has fled o'er heart and head
Since last the yule log burnt,
And we have a task to closely ask
What the bosom and brain have learnt.
Oh! let us hope that our sands have run
With wisdom's precious grains;
Oh ! may we find our hands have done
Some work of glorious pains.
Then a welcome and a cheer to the merry
New Year,
While the holly gleams above us,
With a pardon for the foes who hate,
And a prayer for those who love us.
We may have some loved ones pass
To the land of hallowed rest;
We may miss the glow of an honest brow
And the warmth of a friendly breast,
But if we nursed them while on earth
With hearts all true and kind,
Will their spirits blame the sinless mirth
Of the true hearts left behind ?
No, no, it were not well nor wise
To mourn with endless pain ;
There's a better world beyond the skies,
Where the good shall meet again.
Then a welcome and a cheer to the merry
New Year,
While the holly gleams above us; !
With a pardon for the foes who hate,
And a prayer for those who love us.
Have our days rolled on serenely free
From sorrow's dim alloy ?
Bo we still possess the gifts that bless
And fill our souls with joy T
Are the creatures doar, still clinging near T
Do we hear loved voices come ?
Do we gaze on eyes whose glances shed
A halo round our homes ?
Oh ! if we do, let thanks be poured
To Him who hath spared and given,
And forget not o'er the festive board
The mercies held from Heaven.
Then a welcome and a cheer to tho merry
New Year,
While the holly gleams above us;
With a pardon for the foes who hate,
And a prayer for those who love us.

Death, of the Empress of Mexico.
The last intelligence of particular in?
terest from the Old World was received
across the Atlantic cable yesterday. This
was tho death, at Miramar, of the Em
Eress Cnrlotta, of Mexico. This lady?
Lnrie Carlotta Amelie Victorie Clemen?
tine Leopoldino by name?was the only
daughter of the late Leopold I., King of
the Belgians, by his second marriage with
Louise, eldest daughter of Louis Phil
lippe of Orleans, who was king of the
French in the timo botween the Revolu?
tion of July, 1830, and February, 1848.
She was niece, therefore, of the sons and
daughters of Louis Pillippe, and first
cousin to Queen Victoria, whoso mother
was Leopold's sister. The Empress Car?
lotta was in her 27th year, having been
born in June, 1840, and was married at
the age of seventeen to the Archduke
Maximilian of Austria. At the time of
their marriage thoy were considered as
handsome a young couple as could be
found, that day, in Europe. The union
was not fruitful?which, under existing
circumstances, is scarce to be regretted?
but is understood to have been singularly
happy.
In an evil hour, tempted by ambition,
Maximilian accepted the crown of Mexi?
co, to which he had boen chosen by a
species of election, the persons voting
calling themselves "DOtables," who adop?
ted the Austrian Prince by orders of Na?
poleon. He arrived at Vera Cruz in May,
and entered the city of Mexico in Juno,
1864, and has ever since endeavored,
without success, to obtain recognition
from the Mexican nation. His material
force consisted of French troops, and on
Napoleon's refusal to give him further
aid, in treasure and soldiers, he would
have abdicated, but his wife induced him
to let her visit Europe, in order to mako
a personal appeal to Napoleon. This she
did and failed. Soon after, at Rome,
while she was paying a morning visit to
tho Pope, her conduct showed unequivo?
cally that she was insane. She believed
that she was the object of a conspiracy to
poison her, and her brother, the Count
de Flander, was sent for. He took charge
of her and escorted her to Miramar, where
the first years of her marriage had been
happily passed-; but before she quitted
Rome she solemnly decorated, with the
Knightly Order of the Gaudaloupe, a large
white cat belonging to the hotel where
she lodged, having taken a fancy to the
animal becauso it allowed her to feed it
from her own plate, before she would
venture to eat tho viands provided for
her. It has latterly been reported that
her disease has become less violent, and
that her restoratiion to mental and bodi?
ly health might reasonably be looked for
ere long. But it was a vain hope. She
is reported to have died on Friday. Her
mind was distraught, no doubt, by the
difficulties which she and her husband
had to encounter in Mexico. His fate,
still to battle with them, against hopo, is
even more mournful than hers. Their
whole story is a sad example of baffled
ambition, and a notable illustration of tho
instability of human greatness.?Phila?
