With th exception of Pater Cooper and Bryant, who were always pushed forward a the two honest men of Rew York City, few figures were more ramiliar to our citi zens than O'Connor and Evarts. The death of the former has left the latter the moafc prominent lawyer in the country. Mr. Evarts is cf interest not for himself lone, but as a type of no small body of our ablest men. These are the dignified but melancholy shapes who haunt the hither side of the river that flows around the presidential chair, and await the tardy fcoat that shall ferry them over to that seat of empire. The body of our great lawyer is as trans ptrent as his mind is opaque. Tail and slender, he resembles Ralph Waldo Emerson, somewhat as a file resembles a blade of grass. This difference is due to the diverse actions of law and poetry, the former of which has given to Mr. Evarts a more stable and per sistent back bone than would be appropri ate to a votary of the latter. Born in Boston in ISIS, Mr. Evarts has been conspicuous in the triple character of lawyer, orator and statesman for more than a quarter of a century. As a lawyer his reputation has grown without interruption since his admission to the New York bar in ISiL Contrary to the general opinion, American law is even more exacting upon a lawyer's time than English. Based upon the English common law, changed, re changed, enlarged and contracted by our Btate and United States statutes as well, the changing detail of our law requires such constant study that it is next to impossible for an American to be a great lawyer with ut being otherwise minute. In the impeachment of Andrew Johnson in 1868, in which Mr. Evarts was bis principal counsel, bis merits es a lawyer and his natarf .. defects as a larger student were marked. . His English reputation reached its blghest point when he represented the United Ctatcs in the Alabama claims. In his speeches before the tribunal of arbitration his wonder ul memory of details, and the staying power of his sober oratory that car lied him day after day through spectral Clouds of figures and over sandy legal wastes struck the hearts of his learned opponents cold. . The great Beecher trial showed us the fur niture of Mr.' Evarts brain more clearly than any other. No one can deny that as a lawyer he earned his moderate fee of seventy five thousand dollars. But the case de manded not only a legal, but a moral acquittal, and to the latter Mr. Evarts can hardly be said to have greatly contributed. Eb should hare taken a hint from his enemies and employed scholars to select from Baint Augustine, Calvin, Knox, Jona than Edwards and other great divin sen tences in which they accused themselves of every form of wickedness. In this way he would "have taken the wind out of those sentences in Mr. Beecber's letters which, in the opinion of many literal persons, were damaging to his cause. In the war against the Tweed ring Mr, Evarts1 course was . more creditable than that of the well-known jurist, David Dudley Field. That war, as is not generally known, was begun and waged by young lawyers, te whom was presented the alternatives of starvation or enlisting under the banner of the thieves. Though Mr. Evarts fees from our largs corporations were probably liitle less than those of Mr. Field, he did not long hesitate about joining the young crusaders, and in one of his r-peecbes against the ring made his nearest approach to impassioned oratory in the seutence that warned the ring that in cotnting bayonets there is no false count. As an orator Evarts does not stand the severe test of being able to be read. As a statesman Evart's career culminate in JH.ayes' administration, when he held tht office of Secretary of State. Since then his influence seems to hr-e rapidly declined. The cause of a public man's power's waxing or waning Is as hard to discover as the secret of the weather. Yet sometimes one can make a lucky guess. There is, of course, the gen eral reason which we have given, that a great American lawyer cannot well to day be anything else. There is perhaps anothes? reason. " Men trip not on mountains ; They trip on ant hills." When Mr. Charles A. Dana attacked Grant, Mr. Evarts, who had been one of the backers of Tbe Sun, at once sold out his stock. It has been often remarked thai men feel gtoat injuries far less than slights. At it was a custom at that time among some republicans to speak of Mr. Dana as a trsitn.irian, Nr. Everts pTebabJydjd net give the matt3r ot selling out a few shares of The Sun's stock more than a passing thought. Broken men of brains have, how ever, a wonderful knack of getting mended, and when mended they are much stronger than before. Now, though Mr. Dana is the most forgiving man in the world, his for giveness springs from a sense of Christian duty and not from any defect in bis mem ory, which is remarkably good. Soma persons have thought that in tbe playful banter with which The Sun speaks about Mr. Evarts, and of which Mr. Dana is so marvelous a master, you may still detect a passing remembrance of the former's de ' etion at a crucial moment Certain it is At since the full-grown Sun has made jerry with Mr. Evarts' long" sentences, his olitical aspirations have not been looked on so serious. y by the public. But Mr. Evarts for a lawyer is still young, and by the time he is seventy will, I hope, find himself again in the public swim. William Washburn. New York, Oct. 8.
