"a happiness to hand to you" (Of course the
expression q "a happiness is merely the young
man's polite hyperbole.)
Blushing with &c modesty, the lovely (76 as
before, of course) lady took the bracelet-which
was "a magnificent diamond clasp-24 mag

drawing back added
"Do not thank me; the pleasure of gazing

EDIroRs PRoMorEp.-The editors in Virginia
are lucky set OF fellows. Until OF late years
they were by no means to be envied; but now
thanks to the spread of intelligence and the
progress of liberal and enlightened views, they
are fast attaining that position to which the most
clever class Of individuals in the world are so
Justly entitled As an evidence of this we take
pleasure in mentiesing the fact that they are
now, in the district of country alluded to, actu-
ally placed on a footing with ministers, preach
ers. priests, or whatever you may choose to call
men of that profession. This, it must be con-
fessed, is . most wonderful stride, and lest peo-
pie may think the xtatement bit of romanciRg,
we append the following separate and distinct
paragraph, clipped from the advertisement of
the " Louden County Institute, &c, published
in the (va.) Tenth Legion. 1t comes under the

ALLEGED ELECTION FRAUD.--The citizens of
San Francisco are greatly excited about frauds
that are alleged to have taken place at the bal
lot boxes after the polls were closed in the First
Ward, and in one of the county precincts In
regard to the former, Mr.. Parsons swears that
about o'clock, A. NJ, Thursday Sept. 9TH, he
a man at the ballot box of the First Ward
with bunch of tickets in his hand tearing them
up-and Immediately afterwards be saw the
same person put his hand into the ballot box and
take out a bunch Of tickets and tear them up
and throw them upon the floor Edward ].
Smith also swears that between the hours of
one and two o'clock of the same morning he
was looking through crevice in the door Of the
First Ward polls and saw the lid of the ballot
box open, and saw and heard the same shut
again, and that this was after the closing of the
polls, sealing up of the boxes and mailing up of
the doors and windows, and stopping all the
crevices that could be found, with blankets
On the other hand Robert c. Benton swears
that he was with Smith at the time and that
Smith looked through the creyice about minute
and exclaimed there gent emen am satisfied
its now about two o'clock am going home
now"-that he (Benton) Immediately looked
through the crevice-that the ballot box was
setting on the table with bottle bearing the
marks of having contained a candle that
consumed there-that all the judges and in
spectors, except Mr.. Carr, apparently
asleep and that MIR. G. was walking up and
down the room This is all the evidence so
far.

REFoRM.-Horace Mann suggests reform
in the mode Of educating youths and maidens.
He proposes, and urges it with great earnest
ness and plausabilily, that they be educated in
the same college. Ii our experience might go
for anything, we think tho plan admirably
adapted to the cultivation of the social qualities
but if it is intended that the youths and mai
dens" shall do any very hard studying. why
then. we think the plan slightly defective. Put
youth Of seventeen and maiden of sixteen
together in an institution, with the privilege of
meeting thrice daily, and if they do not in three
days love harder than four old Santa Fe
mules can kick board fence, then we will con-
woman in this region. But hear the Pro-
fessor -
"Besides and beyond all this. believe that
the daily and thrice daily meeting of the sex es,
with occasional interviews in social circles will
be mutually advantageous to them. 1t will
work both moral restraint and intellectual ex-
citement. That innate regard which each sex
has for the other sex, over and above what it
has for the same good qualities in its own-the
difference between friendship and love-is too
precious and too powerful an agency to be
thrown away III the education of either be-
lieve it to be an agency which God meant we
should make of to promote the refinement.
the progress and the elevation of them both-
believe it may be made TO supersede many OF
our present coarse and crude instruments of dis
cipline-the goads and bludgeons of punishment
which are employed to rouse young men
from the stupefaction of ideness, or beat them
back from the gateways OF SIM"
Horace Mann evidently never was a school
boy. He knows nothing about the period OF
adolescence-that joyous, budding glowing,
flowery time Of life, when youths and maidena
dote on Byron, love to contemplate green
meads, and meandering brooks with ilowery
banks, and experience the utmost satisfaction in
apostrophizing the "moon, the bright, the sill
yer moon" He never, when at school, robbed
flower gardens, climbed high trees for wild
grapes, scaled fences to despoil peach trees ol
their luscious fruit, at the imminent risk OF
having his breeches torn by the teeth Of savage
dogs-and all with the view of winning a smile
from the witching eyes and sunny face of some
little divinity in short dresses and pantaletts.-
Horace Mann sprung from the bib and tucker
into long tail coats and boots; otherwise he
would know that his plan is utterly impractica-
