Mr.. and Mrs. Senator Douglas
Directing and Franking Doc.
lumcnts M
We quote the following passage from q
Washington letter printed in the Cincinna-
ii Enquirer:
aI called on Senator Douglas last even
ing for short time, and found him busy
IN his study franking copies of his speech
all over the Union. Diligently engaged
IN directing the speeches as they were
franked, was Mrs. Douglas, radiant and
beautiful in her elegant evening attire
She wrote rapidly bold, firm hand, which
evinced energy and decision of character,
while she carried on part of the CONVEX
sation at the same time. She is truly a
very beautiful lady in form and figure,
with a countenance expressive not only of
intellect and energy, but affection and pure
womanly sympathies. She has evidently
the mind to investigate and compre-
hend questions Of politics, for some of
her remarks exhibited considerable feeling
concerning the position of Kansas affairs.
A gentleman had just brought in some
three hundred names of citizens of Cincin-
natl, and she proceeded at once to direct
each copy of her husbands speech, while
Mr.. Douglas added his frank. Those who
receive the speeches will, therefore, have
specimen of the chirogaphy of Mr.. and Mrs.
Douglas"

A Catholic Priest Arrested for
Murder.

On Saturday night, the 18th inst, the
murdered body of VIM. Mullen was found
on the pavement in front of the house of
Rev. Daniel Downey, Roman Catholic
Priest at Stanton, Va. The Richmond
South says:
The blood was traced to the front door
of Mr.. Downey's residence. From the ru-
mors afoat in regard to Mullen and young
woman, Mrgaret Leigh, resident of Mr..
Downey's house, it was supposed that he
had been murdered in the house and sub
sequently dragged out and left on the
pavement. 1t is said that Leigh, who is
now supposed to be enciente, had institu-
ted suit against Mullen, some days be-
fore, for breach of promise of marriage.
When the officer of the law arrived at the
house, be found the front door locked, but
finally effected an entrance by the rear of
the building. Blood was found at the
front door, inside, and thence traced thro'
the passage and front foom to small back
room on the first floor, in which, near the
hearth, was quite pool of blood. Upon
searching press in the corner of the room
next to the fireplace, one of Colts FIVE
shooters was found, two barrels of which
were loaded and three discharged. Mrs.
A. Orchard and Dr.. Downey were the on
ly persons found in the house-the latter
prostrated on the floor, apparently in pro-
found slumber, but in the opinion of the
physicians present, thoroughly intoxicated.
One McAlear testified at the Coroner's
inquest as follows:
He, accompanied by deceased and Thos.
Honihan, went to the residence of DIR. Dow
ney. When McAlear entered the house,
Downey, Mrs. Crickard, Miss Leigh and
the little boy were in the front room
While he (McA. was playing with the lit
tie boy, DR.. Downey and Mullen went into
the back room. In short time the form
er returned, and taking book, returned to
the back room. A few minutes afterwards
the report of gun or pistol was heard.
On the witness entering the back room, he
saw Mullen in reclining position on the
floor. Witness and Honigan then dragged
deceased from the house out on the pave
ment. McAlear testified that DR.. Dow
ney was sober. DR.. D. was not in the
room after the shot.
. Thondcs Honihan corroborated the tes-
mony of DR.. A.
The Coroner deemed the evidence suffi-
cient to warrant the arrest of the priest,
and he is now in Jail.

The Love of Truth.

Education is constantly and almost
universally eulogized. But why? Not
as an end, but as an instrument. Not
for itself, but because knowleds se is pow
crit is respectable-it is an important
means of success in the world.
Such views, although by no means
themselves, utterly inadevuate. The v
can never result in that Symmetrical
and harmonious development of the
whole nature of man which is implied
1ip,the word Eslseasion The fenpda:
ufe. Something else Is needed The
need is the lore of trRth in the IN ind OF
theiperson to be educated. Implant in
the mind of any youth a sincere and.ar-
dent love of truth-a love of truth for
truths sake-a love which will lead him
to seek for, truth wherever it mayalead,
and you have done more for the educa-
ton of that mind than can possibly be
done by the communication of any
amount of mere information. Such a
mind will be educated 1t may have
moro or fewer facilities and adEanta-
ges, but where there, is will there is a
way; and where, there is living and
active love of truth, there viii be an ed
ucated mind. LOG + @
The influence ofthis principle may be
seen in brothers or sisters of the same
family, in scholars of the same class, in
school, or in college. OF those whose
natural abilities are equally good, you
will see some making rapid progress-
growing up in. the fulness of the statute
of perfect manhood, while others grow
in nothing but that which is corrupt
The same thing is also seen in those
sudden Transformations which sometimes
occur in intellectual character, by which
persons who have heretofore been con-
sidered dull and stupid, become fred
with zeal for knowledge, and ever af-
ter go on to make great attainments
1t is said that the celebrated DIR. Bar
rows. was so very dull when youth
at school, that his father used to s:y,
that if it should be the pleas ure of
Providence to deprive him of any Of his
pine children, he hoped lit would be
Isaac. Yet Isaac was the only Ione of
the nine of whom anything is now
known. Becoming possessed Of. this
new motive to study--the love of truth
he made attainments in learning, and.
in command over languages which have,
been, rarely, if ever, surpassed. So
great were these .attainments, that Lord
Chatham, as a means of perfecting
'himsclfin oratory, copied with his own
hand, eight times, his published works.
Nothing can prevent the progress of
mind possessed of his.'prihciple.--.
1t matters little. who or where-its pos
SCISSORS may be. 1t is awake and open
to those Impressions Of truth, which
are ever coming to such a mind from the
whole rance of existence. - =
