Female DiplOmatists i'm wash.

The Washington correspondent Of the Phil
adelphia Pennsylvania says:
Among the institutions Of Washington is
class of female s'dipIomatists,'' ssintriguers' -
'spoliticians," }" or coffee beggars,o as you may
please to style them, which, as class, cannot
be PARALLEL in the world. These women are
generally strong minded in the fullest sense Of
the term. No little feminine scruples among
them; no blush Of modesty ever comes be-
tween them and success; but they ego in to

"when woman will, she WILL

So there's the end on't,'
A few days ago, one of these amaxons arri-
ved here to secure a position for . son who
seemed to inherit all the feminine traits which
his mother lacked. True to the principle of
her c ass, she went to work. If she caught a
glimpse of a Cabinet officer, she hailed him.

if she came in contact with poor "Member''

carried into his sanctum, and that the states
man OF half a century had to qnail before the
modern Xantippe. At last, in the course Of
events, she met distinguished Senator from
New England State, who has tongue OF
his own, and knows how to use it. Her bat.
terry was at once opened. Round shot bombs,
canister, slugs, grape and ssBB" were pour

Punch's Charge to the Jury.

The subioined "charge'' was not written 70.
the present time, fact which is evident from
that other fact that we cut it from an old file
Of the Lancaster Intelligencer, into which it
was copied from the London Punch about fif-
teen years ago. notwithstanding the antio-
uity Of the document, we consider it. in some
respects, "modep' charge-it, at least, pos.
sessing the merit Of leaving the jury unbiased
In their deliberations upon verdict:
GENTLEMEN OF THE jury: You are sworn
in all cases to decide according to the evidence
at the same time, if you have any doubt, you
are bound to give the prisoner the benefit Of it.
Suppose you have to pronounce on the guilt OF
innocence Of gentleman accused Of felony.
You will naturally doubt whether any gentle
man would commit such offences-according'y
however strong may be the testimony against
him, you will, perhaps, acquit him. The evil
dence of your own senses is, at least, as CT ed
ible as that Of the witnesses il, therefore,
your eyesight convince you that the prisoner
is a well-dressed person, you have right to
presume his respec.abilitys and it is for you to
say whether a respectable person would be
likely to be guilty 0. the crimes imputed to
him. In like manner, when you see shabby.
looking fellow in the dock, charged, for ex-
ample, with sheep-stealing, the decision rests
with you, first. whether OF not that Individual
is a ragamrffin, and, secondly, how far it is
probable that a man Of that description would
steal sheep. or course, as has been before
said, you will always be guided by the evil
dence but, then, whether the evidence is trust
worthy or not, is matter for your private con-
sideration. You may believe j, il you choose,
or you may disbelieve it; and whether, gentle
men Of the jury, you will believe il or disbe-
lieve it. will depend on the constitution Of you,
minds. II your minds are so constituted that
you wish to find the prisoner guilty, perhaps
you will believe it; il they happen to be SO
constituted thst you desire to fird him not gull
ty, why then, very likely, you win disbelieve
it. You are to free your minds from all pas
sion and prejudice il you can, and, in that case
your judgment will be unbiased but il you
cannot, you will return verdict accordingly.
It is not, strictly speaking, for you to consider
what will be the effect Of your verdict but il
such a consideration should occur to you, and
you cannot help attending to 1t, that verdict
will be influenced BY it to a certain extent -
You are probably aware that when you retire
you will be locked up until you contrive to
agree. You may arrive at unanimity by far
discussion, or by some Of you starving out the
others, or by tossing mp; and your conclusion,
Cy whichever Of these processes arrived at,
will be more or less in accordance with your
oaths. Your verdict may be right it ;s to be
hoped it will; It may be wrong it is to be
hoped it viii not. At all events, gentlemen OF
the jury, yon will come to some conclusion or
other; unless it should 50 happen that you sep
arate without coming to any. En-

"Indeed, little Willie," said his mother,s

the sidewalk and try the aext door, suppose
you step into the entry, throw of your little

treaty says, to the protection Of the neutrality
of these Central American routes of commerce
Here is a patriotic sentiment that will find a
warm responsein many American hearts:
Il deprecate the policy Of going thousand
miles away from our own soil for the purpose
of engaging in this kind Of ENHANCEMENT with
other countries 1t is against the wise coun-
sells promulgated In the Farewell address of
Washington, against the principles taught by
Jefferson, and all the patriots of this country,
who have spoken of the policy TO be observed
towards other nations with whom we have in
tercourse. Let us therefore leave Central
American States to build their own railroads.
open their own ways, take care Of their own
neutrality and let us abstain from both nation
al and private fillibustering, and turn our at
tention to the development Of our own vast in.
terror, where eur enterprise and energies will
find ample field, and where the capital expen-
ded will remain among our own people. Such
policy will give employment to our people,
activity to our industrial pursuits, and tend to
preserve the continuance Of peace and pros
perity among the independent States Of this
continent.
The gallant Colonel with the enthusiastic
generosity of the true soldier comes thus ear.
nestly and eloquently to the defense of brave
| and tried veteran officer:
This Commodore Paulding has borne ou
flag for forty FIVE years gloriously on every sea
He comes before the world with houor unim
prached and unimpeachable. And yet, with

is made in this House to strip the epulets from

charges to bring against one who has Ion.

over your honor on far-off sultry, sickI,
shore. What has this officer done to brinl
down such threats upon him? II gentlemen
will examine the orders under which he acted
and consider the position which he occupie,
they will find abundant cause to Justify III
act OF true and honest sailor.
The speech closes with the following ius
seneiment which is strikingly in contrast will
the fillibustering notions of r1any of the pub
lie men OF the present day.

nally and externally, but desire to make ac
QUESTIONS only by far and honorable means
wish to see surrounding States attracted b,

that our department toward contiguous coun
tries should be especially conciliatory and gen

tension to the limits Of this continent, but

Liberality

Men ought to become liberal and large-hear-

reverse is the rule. Men grow avaricious and

o, give to me heart that throbs
In responsive tone;
Which kindly shares part in griefs,
And sorrows not it, own;
That seeks to shed around on all
The holy light OF peace,
And by its unpretending love
Bid others woes to cease.
They who possess this precious gem,
Have peace at their command;
They live not merely for themselves,
but Tor their fellow man;
And the purest, richest earthly gift,
Which they can call their own,
Is heart that throbs for Others woes,
