Mnnc LIFE.-Mrs. Mowatt calls the life
of the actor, mimic life and we think the
term very appropriate. But in our opinion
there is great deal of mimic life beside
the actors experience, and beyond the glare
of foot-lights.
There was a time when, looking at every
thing through the rosy dreams of youth, we
thought we could implicitly trust appear
ances; but the sober reason of ripper years
has convinced us that we were in an error
there, and tempted us to believe as Shaks-
peare says, that
'All the worlds a stage,
And all the men and women merely players:
They have their exits and their entrances
And one man in his time acts 1naay parts
When we know that rich merchant turns
deaf car to the wall of the starving: sends
forth the poor tenant who cannot pay the
high rent he demands, to wander through
the cold and snowy streets with her helpless
little ones; beats down the humble laborer
who works for him, and cheats his custom.

When we meet woman, who wears a ra-
di0nt smile, and appears to be the gayest OF
the gay, to hide the grief which makes her
existence a burden, which she would gladly
lay down in the graye-we think that is
mimic life
When we hear expressions Of interest and
protestatiohs of friendship from those, who
we feel assured, have not the slightest re
gard for us, and would rejoice over any mis-
fortune which might befal us, we say, there
is another phase Of mimic life
When we find family denying themselves
of actual comforts that they may keep ul
the appearance of wealth, Haunting along
the streets in silk and velvet, while they are
looking forward to a coarse and scanty din

A TRACT For THE TMEs-The Times is exer-
cised on the "tract controversy" and being
exercised has spoken right out! This event
has doubtless astonished Its readers; for It Is
we'll known that If our youthful neighbor is
celebrated for anything, 1t is not for plain
speaking. On the other hand, that journal has
Q most remarkable passion for sqmtting on
the fence. II is characteristic of that journal
to skip at random ell round the lot, to talk jo-
cosely a>a harnlessly, steering clear of affir-
natives and negatives with such dexterity as
to remind Us constantly OF the old refrain
"I'm sitting on the stile. Maryw
But the Times has jumped of from the fence
and is now down In the ditch with the Tribune
and the Independent, trying hard to drag the
American Tract Society into their company.
We Judge from the tenor of its remarks on
Saturdsy--semijo cose and semi-profaue--
that it considers that the American
Tract Society does very little good.

to have done much good in that

This city spends, one year with auotner,'

it has been since he took Office. Year after

that if any intelligent person would take the

A movement has just been started in Lon

here to ascertain what it costs to manage the
city business, or what the city actually spends;
but it would appear thai the following esti-

INCREASE OF Salaries CRY EyrrNsEs.-
A measure has lately passed the Board of
Councilmen to increase the salaries of the
Mayor, Comptroller and Street Commissioner
from fifty to one hundred per cent. 1t has not
passed the Aldermen, and therefore may yet be
stopped. BY all means let this be done. The
present salaries are quite sufficient. If auv

good morals and sound sentiments, and d..
them to think and act for themselves
The Times has concluded that this nati .oual
Institution ought to be abolisioaized; that,
because i. has published tracts on the "Siu Of
Dancing" "Sin Of Tosacco," &;., It ought to
publish tracts on anti slavery. Indeed, our
astute contemporary supposed tb at the society
had actually been PUBLISHING, abolition tracts,
until aroused by that meeting in the Brick
Church last week, where it learned, to its
astonithment, that the Christian admonitions of
the society were determined by degrees Of
latitude"
The Times ought to know that, constitution
ally, it is not lawful for the American Tract
Society to convert itself into that abolition
propaganda which sundry clerical Thespians
and Fourierite philosophers are now clamorous
for. And If 1t were lawful, it is evidently not
expedient. Slavery, as it happens to exist at
the South, is approved to the sentiments of q
large body Of evangelical Christians" who
are the constituents of the society. For the
society to wage war upon slavery is to wage
war upon these evangelical Christians mem
bers of its own family and to cut off ali in
tercourse with them in any shape. Let this be
done, and there will be no more colportage At
the South, NO more reviva,s and conversions
through the agencies of this Institution; and,
more than this, there will pe no longer an
American Tract Society.

FLORIDA.

jority 628. 1t adds, that several other counties
have been heard from-but not definitely. WASH
ington Calhoun and Putnam which have given
small majorites for the democrats, and Walton
and Holmes which have done the same for the
know -nothings. From two or three other small
counties nothing has been received. Yet nothing
to come in can materially vary the above msjori-
ties. An incrcaee or decrease to the extent of q
hundred will cover any change to be made in our
summing up.

democratic by from six to eight on joint ballot.

PENNSYLVANIA,

The Democratic Central Committee of Pennsy-
vania claimed a majority of $500 for their State
ticket in October It will fall but trif1e, if any,
below that. The same committee claimed, in the
same estimate, 10000 majority for the Buchanan
electoral ticket in November. We have not
doubt that the msjority will exceed that
In the fret place, BUCHANAN is twenty thousand
stronger in Pennsylvania than any local ticket. In
the second place, the fusion, which was perfected
on the State ticket in October, cannot be made
available in November. If Fillmore know moth
ing ticket is exclusively against the democrats,
1t will lose the whole of the German vote, near
half of which it carried in October. If The black
republicans and the know nothings run separate
tickets of course there is no further contest. Or
if black republican ticket only is run, there is
small Fillmore strength all over the State which
would have nothing to do with it
We say, then, that Pennsylvania is certain for
BUCHANAN by thirty thousand majority over any
fusion which could be formed. But the opposition
must, in addition, hang on one of the horns of the
dilemma we have suggested, and be beaten an In
definite number ueyond that thirty thousand.

VOTE OF LANCASTER CITY.

At the recent election in Pennsylvania, the city
of Lancaster the home of James Buchanan, gave
a democratic majority of SOS votes over the COM
bined force of Fremonters, sboIitonists and know
nothings This is a clear gain of 447 votes on the
majority of last year in thstcity. This gain speaks
louder than words for the popularity of the demo-
cratic candidate where he is best known.
Lancaster county, which, all familiar with poll
tics know, usually gives four to five thousand ma
jority against the democrats, gave only $500 fu-
sion majority at the late election. Old democrat.
ic Berks which used to be counted only an offsett
to wing Lancaster, has now given democratic
majority Of over six thousand.

COY. JONES AT LEBANON.

The favor of friend at Lebanon, who sends US
a lengthy report of the speech of Gov. JoSE, at
Lebanon, is postponed by imperative necessity. We
can give only the following brief extract {:
"Gov. Jones proved conclusiyely what has of
ten before been proved from the record of the
votes in the House of Representatives, upon sll
questions affecting the rights and equality of the
south under the Constitution that the democratic
party are the only party at the North that hold
their rights 10 the least consideration. He de-
clared that the course of the northern members of
that party in the election of speaker of the House
of Representatives,, in upholding constitutional
principles, when the members of all other parties
from the North were but fansticsl and reckless
crusade against the rights of the South, was the
most sublime example Of patriotism and mora |
courage that he ever beheld. The Governor in
conclusion said truly, that the only issue in this
election was the Kansas Nebraska bill, and upon
this subject he approved Of the resolutions of the
democratic party and the positions of their can
didates, and declared his intention of supporting
them at the polls in November next.

c,pT WILLIAMS IN EAST TENNEssEE,

We greatly regret that we cannot find space for
an admirably written notice of the speech of Capt.
WILLIAMS, at Jscksboro, in Campbell county
The writer says, in conclusion,-
Every county in East Tennessee, have no
doubt, will give a gain for democracy. A feehn 6
of pride and certain victory seems to perVade the
ranks Of the democracy; while chagrin and newt
able defeat are clearly manifest in the ranks OF the
opposition. The feeble efforts making by the know
nothing party, seem to be but the last squlrmlngs
of the monster, already fatally wounded, and ces-
tined 70 q premature death"

THE NEXT CONGRESS.

Not the least interesting characteristic of the
memorable election of last week is the assurance
which it gives that the next Congress Is to be Of
q very different complexion from the present. A
gain of ten in Pennsy lsans, eight in Ohio, six in
Indians, makes change in of favor Democracy and
the Constitution of the twenty four. Thatisto say
should there be no further changes the next Con-
gress will contain just about double as many con-
sentative Northern Democrats as the present.
Add fifty sound free state members to the whole
Southern delegation of ninety, aud it gives l40-
leaving but 81 to the Black Republicans and Know
Nothings.
1t is decidedly probable that the Democrats will
be largely in the mgorityoSer the abolitionists
and the southern Know Nothings combined. TIE
rage Of the free sellers st this prospect may be
imsgiaed-is indeed very delightful to think of.
