Tue Dkath of thb Aged?It ill noteworthy that the severity of this winter's weather has been peculiarly fatal ' to persons of advanced age, pneumonia and its congeners having j found in that class a vast number of victims. This has been sadly obaerva bio in Baltimore and in more Northern I parts of the country, but it has arrest? ed attention ohiefly from the fact that many of the most prominent and worthy oitisens have been inoluded in the death-roll. It is a matter ef pro | found regret thus to lose the udvioe, ! counsel and conservatism that can come no other wise with ouch effect and [serviceable soundness as from the mel? low and temperate wisdom of ripened years. Nor is the situation mended if we observe bow very small is the num? ber of survivors of those oitizens who have for eo many yours been foremost in State und municipal councils, ar.d in all those business enterprises which have made us famous among the peo? ples. They have dwindled to a small band, truly, and soon evon these will puss away from our midst; but it it hoped that for them there will still bo many days und the honored fullness thereof. A painful instance of the fatality of pnoumonia in cases of old persons I chronicled in New York. Three bro? thers, Joseph, Edward and Henry De latio'd, died Saturday, Sunday am Monday, respectively, of that disease, the youngest being eigbty-oue years old, the eldest eighty-five and the {other one eighty-three. They were the survivors of a family noted for ho? nored and useful lives, eaoh of them having lived well toward his fellow men, and in the fullness of years they were buried together on the same day. I In Philadelphia, on Monday, Mr. Henry Q. Freeman died at the ripe ] I age of eighty-six years. Ho was ad? mitted to the bar in 1809. Mr. Horace Bioney, the Nestor of the bar in that j city, survives him, and is now in bis ? ninety-sixth year. This latter gentle? man and Willard Hall, of Delaware, j who was born in 1780, are the oldest living persons who served in Ooogresa ?oldest not only iu years, but in date of service. Wm. Collen Bryant was I bat just born when Mr. Biuney was at college, and the venerable Peter Cooper, of New York, is ten years younger than either of the deceased Delafields.?Baltimore Sun.

Washington, February 18.?Tho following- address bris just been pre? pared by tbe Demaoratio members of the South end Bo nth-west: To xiiB People or the South kun States: You have confided to tbe noderaigued ia- this conjuncturo of affairs the deiioate and difflon.lt task of guarding iu the Federal Congress your public interest, your rights aud reputa? tion. You will, therefore, pardon the liberty we take of addressing you at a period so critical upon a matter affect iog your destiny and that of your posterity. You cannot have failod to observe tbe persitdent efforts of some of the leaders of the Ropuhliauu party to revive the unimositiee of tho lute war, which, happily, are fust giving place to u spirit of concord aud unity in every sectioa of our commou country. It is impossible to predict certainly tbe effeot of these appeals to pussion. We believe that through tbe honest representation of a few upright und conscientious Federal offioers uud agents, an independent aud able pub? lic prees, and of many citizens without regard to party, the truo condition of the Southern States and the real souti ineut of tbe Southern people are being gradually made known to our fellow oitizens of the North. We hope for their favorable decision when fully apprised of the faots. Tho great ende of good government will be reached when the people of all auc? tions forget that we havo ever been enemies, and come together agaiu at* id the early days of tbe Republic, emulating each other only in devatiou to the best interest of tbe whole country. With this exalted purpose in view there is nothing inconsistent with tbe honor aud manhood of a brave people to resolve to Buffer with heroic patience whatever be their pro? vocations and wrongs, looking through the fearful preseut to a hopeful future and repelling unjust epitbetB and gratuitous insults with dignified mod? eration. Let every white man iu every neighborhood in the whole South regard himself as u commis? sioner of peace, maintaining the kind? liest relations toward tbe black man; remembering that tbe responsibility fur tbe extreme poverty to which we have been reduced, and the corrupt governments to which bis vote hut* subjected us, rests not so much upon bim as upon the bad men who wish the assurance of Federal support und have by appeals to his worst passion, sought to make bim our enemy. While we labor by all honest means to oonviuoe him of the truth that our interest, aud hi* are identical, aud that both must be preserved by good government, aud that those who stir up strife between as are the enemies of both races, let us, at tbe same time that he is fully protect? ed in bis guaranteed rights to vote as he pleases in all elections, continue to deal with bim honestly and fairly, and let as continue cordially to invite to oar midst those of any political party who either seek to know tbe truth or to find homes upon our soil. We do not exaggerate when we admonish yon of the disheartening fact, that every street disturbance, every homicide of whatever oharaotor, by whomsoever committed, by black or white, Repub? lican or Democrat?such as are inci? dents to over}* community?each is perverted into evidence of a spirit of lawlessness and violence, aud a pur? pose to accomplish political euds. We well know tbe gross injustice of such charges, which havo weight only where ignorance of our true condition pre? vails. Strenuous efforts are now being made by those who misrepresent yon, to induce tbe passage by Cougress of tho most dangerous measures, in order to irritate our people, to drive them to despair, and to provoke them to vio? lent outbreaks, in order to furnish an excuse for applying for military inter? ference. We express the hope that u mujority of the present Congress will not bo found ready to sanction auch legislation. If it be accomplished, it would be against tbe protest, not only of tbe Democrats, but of the moral worth and tbe statesmanship here of the party in power, and of snob Re? publicans as Bryant, Evarts, Charles Francis Adams, and others, whose pa? triotism and sense of justice are known to the entire country. We may, how? ever, be mistaken, and the most ex? treme, oppressive and unconstitutional measures may be imposed upon you. In suoh an event, we would appeal to the wisdom and patriotism of a loog suffering people, by every hope of the future, for continued forbearanoe and hopeful reliance upon tbe virtue and sense of justice of tbe Amerioon peo? ple, for the ultimate vindication of our rights, the protection of *our liberties, and tbe safety of oar repablioaa form of government.

Dahino Outrages Near the North Carolina LSokdkk.?The Mariou Star says: "Ou the night of the 5th iuctuut, uud at the time when 700 barrels of rosin were in flames, the residuuce of Mr. A P. Pago was eutered by thieves und a trunk containing about $300 in gold, u handsome watch und chuiu valued at $150, u largo number of im? portant papers uud some wearing ap? parel stolen. These inhuman wretches wbo tlrst set Uro to the rosiu to draw out the proprietor iu order to enable them to effect their rascally object, after having guiued possession of the trunk, carried it to the river swamp, about half a mile from the residence, broke open tbo same, took therefrom the gold watcb and chum, und then left the trunk containing the papers and clothing in the swamp, where it has been since found, aud returned to its rightful owuer. Suspicion rested on several, but no arrests were made until Monday night, when uu uttuck was made by the same villains npou Fair Bluff, iu North Curoliuu. The citizens were on tbo watch, und cap? tured u white man named Hugh Hug giiiH, und drove off the rest. Ho made a full confessiou, implicating John Browu, William A.

These parties were to do the plundering, while twenty-five uegroes, who were in reserve, were to throw the train off the truck, plunder it aud muke fur the awump. All the above named parties were arrested and great excitement I prevails." United States District Cocrt, Charleston, February 13. ? The Court met at 10 o'otook, Judgo Bryuu presidiug. The petition of Newmuu B. Perry, of Colletou, for voluntary baukroptoy, was referred to Registrar Carpenter. The petition of Thomas B. Fraser, to establish lion in the mat? ter of James A.

"Wh3?"uskod Luureua. "They will lone their habeas corpus," was the re? ply. "Lose their habeas corpus!" ex? claimed Laarens. "Yes," said Lord Sbelbnrno, "we purchased it with centuries of wrangling, many years of fighting, and had it confirmed by ut least fifty Acts of Parliament. All this taught the net on its value, and it is so ingrained into their creed, as the very foundation of their liberty, that no man or party will evor dare trample ou it. Your people piok it np aud at? tempt to use it; but having cost them nothing, they will not kuow how to appreciate it. At the first great inter? nal feud you have, the majority will trample ou it and the people will per? mit it to be done, and so will go your liberty." Does Congress or the Presi? dent know anything of this prophecy, and are tbey endeavoring to prevent or promote its fulfillment? It is said that the only man wbo ever got ahead of Beast Butler iu oivil life was a man named Ames, a portrait painter. Aooordiog to gossip, he painted a portrait of Blanohe, General Botler's beautiful daughter. An ex? quisite picture it was?she, iu a pure, white drees, eteppicg from a rustic doorway. And then bo asked $2,000 for it. Her father refused to pay it. So, after waiting a little while, Ames wrote to him that be should paint a basket of fish on her head, and one in her arms, alter the dress some, and sell it to a Boston club. Butler paid the money then and acknowledged the oorn. Advioe to bnsbands: Settle *e mach money upon your wife ss you can, for her next husband, poor fellow, may not have six pence. Tbe reoeot disstroos conflagration in the famous Shaker village of New Lebanon, N. Y., by which their mam moth dwelling boose was destroyed, has awakened deserved sympathy for the people. Tbe bnildiog destroyed was that of tbe Cboroh family, and was tbe home of that eminent apostle of Shakerism, j?lder Frederick W.Event. Tbe whole family lived in one boose, probably from 150 to 200 persons, the men living on one side and tbe women on the other. No spplianoes for ex? tinguishing fires were to be fonnd in the town, the Shaker idea not tolerat? ing such a thing as a fire engine. Nor was there any outside insurance, tbe Shakors insuring their own property. The disaster will cripple bnt not per? manently injure the society. They are a noh people, living simply and owing no man, and they will quickly retrieve their losses. Their housos are of wood, not beoanso they are non progressive and penurious people, bnt because ono of the rules of their faith is that their dwellings shall be of cheap material, and wood is tho only build? ing material they are permitted to use in their construction. Their houses are plain within and without, |and there is notbiug iu the way of furni? ture that tbey have not made with (heir own hands. Independent and industrious, tbey will not be compelled under any ciroumstauces to nsk aid, and in this respect they are to bo en? vied. I I'be Republicans are much alarmed at the idea of losing the oontrol of the uext Senate. It consists of seventy eight members. There will be twenty eight straight out Democrats, includ? ing one to be elected from West Vir ' giniu. Tho nominal Republicans of ' the body inolude such Seuators ub Robertson, of South Carolina; Oono ver, of Florida; Alcorn, of Mississippi; Booth, of California; Hamilton, of Texas; Ferry, of Connecticut; Chris tiaucy, of Michigan; Cameron, of Wis? consin; Paddock, of Nebraska, and Sharon, of Nevada; noue of whom can be counted on for the revolutionary Radical programme. Iu order to over? come this tendency, the Republicans are eudeavoring to get in two rotton borongh States, by which they hope to get four Senators. Iu the Brooklyn scandal trial tbe cross examination of Tiltou has at last beeu concluded, and he has been allowed "to step down and out." It must be admitted that his testimony has not greatly strengthened his ease; ho was by no means as good a witness as Moultou. Nothing new was de? veloped, aud tbe explanation given by Tiltou of tbe considerations that in? duced bim to publish his letter to Dr. Bacon was weak and unsatisfactory. He also spoke of a threat made on a certain occasion to shoot Beeoher, which, in tbe light of his subsequent oondaot, seemed exceedingly puerile, and was quite on a par with his talk about "vindicating" his wife. Another Comet.?The famous one of Eucke is on its way back to tbe earth, aud has been discovered from the Washington observatory. As it is yet 183,000,000 of miles uway from uh, however, there is yet no reason for alarm. This is tbe comet which shows such a curious disposition, if the astronomers are io be believed, to shorten itti orbit with every trip, ran ning a ?ort of spiral, so to speak, that will laud borne duy 'in the sun's em? brace. A rather novel phase of disappoint? ed expectations has just developed at Baltimore. Two old ladies have eu tered iuto a suit against the adminis? trator of the estate of a Mr. Robert Tuttte, who, they allege, died owing them for board for twenty-seven years. He had frequently promised them sub? stantial remembrance iu bis will, rely? ing upon which they had not enforced puyment of their claim dariug bis life. Patti, on her appearance at Mosoow, was presented with live stars of dia? monds and rubies. 2,000 bouquets were thrown to ber duriug tbe night, and she was called before the curtain sixty times. This is enthusiasm at white heat. We hope Moscow may escape a second great conflagration. The Paris Temps, speaking of the new Versailles laws, begins an urticle thus candidly: "All this means the de? finite aud irrevocable establishment of tbe republic, unless a coup d'etat inter? venes." That is plain talk. Death op a Centbnaihan.?John Qlover, a oolored person living on tbe Glover plantation, Ashepoo Ferry, died on tbe 1st instant. He was 115 years old, u native of Africa, leaving thero when he was ten yours old. A paper informs its readers that "when u gentleman and lady are walk? ing upon tbe street, tho lady ohoaid walk inside of the gentleman." How thu lady is to do it, is not stated. "Pray," said a gentleman, the other day, to a ludy, "do yon like steam? boats?" "No," she replied, "not muob, but I am exceedingly fond of a smack." He took tbe biut. Charles H. Wilding, a Prussian, a boot-maker by trade, was killed in Co? lumbus, Ga., Monday night, by Peter Finnegan.
