r,r RAtrIupNr AMERICAN says, during the
debate that occurred in the Senate on the reoeP
a., q Tho Presidents veto of he bill granting
Id f,r the insane. Senator Douglas was placed
:, ,sit;on that must often befall the politician
who guides h. curse by exped'eney and not oy
nrinciple. A known and open advocate "i ihe
Homestead bill. he vet approved the veto oil TIE
hin ,rs,,inr land to the insane, and was at once
questioned for solution Of the paradox Of supper
ting the one and yet approving the other. The
embarrassing force Of this inquiry.eontlnnes the
American, was felt by the Senator, aud he en-
d.axorad to escape from il by the plea that he
was nor TO be drawn from argument against
one hill by questions as to how he would vote on
another But his querists would not permit u,is
evasion, and he was asked directly where he
found the constitutional power to give land 10
sane man. aud withhold ii from the insane with
the intimation. very parliamentary conveyed
that In the absence of n more favorable distihe-
tion. the country would be apt to think that 1t
was because sane men could vote and insane
men could not. The Senator very Indignantly
repelled this insipuation, aud stated That when
the Homestead bin came up he would be able to
show thatit was quite a different measure from
that then before the Senate That Senator
Douglas will do this 10 bis own satisfaction, and
perhaps TO that Of thousands Of others who sur
render their own right Of thought 10 the dcia-
ton Of party leaders. may not be doubtful but
ihns he can hope to convince the intelligent and
reasoning public thai the Homestead bill does not
embody in il, principles more aniagonste to the
Constitution than any to be deduoed from the
bill that has encountered the Presidential veto,
We DO not believe and the very aEkard position
IN which the Senator found himself placed By

SCANDAL. IN NEW YoRK.-The following bit of
gossip appears in the New York Correspondence
of u Philadelphia paper:-Gossip here has had
as the Bible says of sin, II sweet mOrsel' to
"roll under the tongue" in the shape of scandal
for a few days. The gentleman concerned in
the contretemps is n Mr.. +. about nineteen; and
the son of one of the firm of the important silk
house of - Co. The lady is or was, a
Miss Bsset or Bishop, doaseuSe at some of the
theatres. Mr.. F., rumor assures us, becoming
enamored of the face feet of the fair Bayadere,
disguised himself in shabby clothing, and ap-
plying to the property man OF the theatre, secur-
ed an engagement as ''supe," III order TO be
near tho object of his idolatry. Such devotion
could not be without its effect. The lady aud
her cher annie were soon seen riding out together
on the High Bridge, dining in the private rooms
of the FLORENCE" and suppiDg in the recherche
ditto of the City Hotel. Last week the two low
ers visited Brooklyn in company and were mar
ried. Three days after, the enraged papa of the
bridegroom discovered the meSSdHiance. But
instead of hushing up the unfortunate affair, he
lost all common sense and made himself the OBJ
ject Of universal laughter first by threatening to
prosecute the whole theatre for conspiracy to
ruin his son. and next by using the most rdcu-
lous to obtain the lady's certificate of mar
rage, under the belief that if he could once des-
troy the document in question. the union would
be annulled. The old gentlemans folly has fill
ed the streets with comments of course. In the
meantime, the lady holds on to her young hus-
band, who alternately finds himself locked up one
day in fathers attic and the next in his brides
arms--a refreshing alienation. The elder F.,
as a dernier resort, is now hunting up evidence
of the impurity of his new daughter-in-law, and
making arrangements, dd interim to ship his son
off to Canton n Curiosity,

RELIGION at the University

The Charlottesville Jeffersonian noticing an in
teresting revival of religion, which has for several
weeks past been progressing at the University of
Virginia, says; "Sunrise and other prayer NEE
tings have been voluntarily kept up for several
years by those students who were professors of
religion, and one-ffth of the whole number of
students last year were professors of christianity
and the number this year is probably larger
Unlike other Universities, there is no regulation
TO compel students to attend religious service on
Sunday or at any time. The chaplain, whose
salary is paid by the voluntary contributions of
the Professors, Students and Officers of the Uni
versty, is left to do as he may think best to pro-
mote the religious welfare of his hearers; and we
are inclined to think, from what we have seen in
the University for more than quarter of cent
ury,that there is as much pure and genuine christ
lanlty among the students Of this institution as
can be foundin any other College in our countrv.n

Of the god OF day. Soon high noon will
come, and the Gun will have reached
the zenith, only to pass rapidly onward
bringing in their turn the shades Of

The days Of childhood are a mist in our
existence from which we soon emerge
into the brish, hours Of youth; but like
the sun, time passes on with rapid flight,
brining with ii the noon Of life, the twi.
light hours, and the time when the sun
Of our earthly existence will set forever.
But that sun will rise again when cloud,
and disappointments are never known,
and where the immortal mind Of man
will be free from the ills Of mortality--
free from the trials and perplexities Of q
