WAsHIHGroS SocIETy.-An effort is al

the dep!orable tragedy which has excited
such deep emotions here and elsewhere.-
This is entirel y unjust. There is no more
refined, pure and cultivated society in the
country than that which is composed of the
stationary population here. Between it and
the cflicial society, which is necessarily
transcieI,:, there is wide distance, the first

recognition, and the other, Of late years es,
pecially, opening its doors wide 10 the world
10 court popularity, and without any real
regard to the standing of the multitude so
admitted. This has become a subject of
remark, particularly since the advent Of the
present Administration. And il is very
well known that the consequences obtained
by Tie parties in the sad aiIlir was derived
mainly from the open and unconcealed par
lality and intimacy of the President. They
brought no social aniecedents of any kind
here which might clam regard, and if IL
the Of what is now in etery mouth be true,
the imposition of such people on society at
all was gross outrage, from first TO last, in
yoirins all who are concerned in it, ofiei-
ally or otherwise. As these facts are like

How to Cure Stammering.

Stammering may be cured in all personf
having perfect organs of speech, and wha
are of sound mind. The last is indispeIy
sable, in order that they may understand
the rule, and have force of will 10. exeen,G
it on the ,ebeilious organs. Success ii
more certain in adult persons than in chih
dren, for the reason that it requires cara
and close attention for while to fully break
up the habit. We have seen men and we.
men cured instantly, but in most cases =
little time is necessary. The plan We woulis
recommend is simple one, and may be thus
presented: -
Take phrase, or number Of words, and
utter them while keeping time with the in5
dex finger, bringing it down on the kneefoT
each syllable distinctly pronOuncing the syls
lables then awhile with full round voice.
The mind is thus withdrawn from the act,
ion of the vocal organs, and placed on tins
keeping, and the nervous spasm of the or
gang is obviated. Take an example. % 80
Suffering and siam -ner-ing can be cUsa3
Now, at the moment The attempt is made
to utter the first syllable stgt--let the fn1
ger come down with force; and then beat
accompanies each syllable in word or sem
tence. 1t will not be necessary to continue
this process longer than to accustom the,
mind TO it; bat it should be continued as long
as the tongue falters at any word. -7-s 3gsw
This may perhaps serve TO show our
meaning. As we have intinated, children
are not relieved as readily as grown-up
people; on account of the difficulty Of secu-
ring and retaining their attention. Soms-
times, too, the faltering and stammering of
the tongue, and it will be impossible to se-
cure regular "beat,'' and finally ii will
only follow the utterancc Of syllable, IN
stead of being current with it. When this
occurs, no further attempt need be Iuads to-
enforce the rule, as it would be useless.
It's not easy to present successfully in
words, lesson on this subject.-the living
teacher would be better,-but as we are Of
ten written to il regard TO It, we throw out
the above for the use Of such as may need
the directions it contains. Pittsburg Ad'
vocate.

WHAr AN IRIsHMAN THiNKs OF THE
PARrY,-John Mitchell, speaking of the
late Kansas debate in the Senate, uses this
vigorous language:
The National Democratic party hos van
ishel like the morning mist, and passed
away as tale that is told! On Wednes-
day, in the Senate, for the first time this
session, our National Democrats ventured
TO look one another in the face, and parted
wiih 4 shrek Of horror and CONSERVATION.
They dared, though reluctantly, and with
wry faces, 10 try and test the opinion of
what was once party, upon the one great
question which rifles and dis,racts all oar
politics, foreign and Domestic Slavery.
Such is the harmany Of the Democratic
pariyl On every queriion, sars one, they
are two well-defined and very hostile paf-
ties. That one question is public plunder.
1t is a greaeprinciple which has maim aimed
the harmony Of the party. long enough; but it
bursts at last. The Democratic party, from
this day, goes straight.to dissolution and The
"Union" after it, -,e -, - s.---.

Bitter Rebpke of the Administration.

Correspondence Of the Cinannatti Gazette.
BlLrIMoEE, March 5.
Col. Forney writes bitter letter to tho
press from Washington. He says. 1.-Two
years ago this day, James Buchanan took
his seat in the Presidential Chair, the most
popular OF our Chief Magistrates since the
days of George Washington. All parties
stood willing 10 trust him. His inaugural
address was accepted by every section with
unailoyed pleasure. His long public life
induced even those who had refused to sup
port him in Sc, to repose generous con-
fidence in his administration. He held in
his hand the destinies Of happy country.
He was clothed with rare advantages, and,
had he been animated by conscientious pa
trintisln, he would have consolidated the
Democratic party, in etery State in the
Union, and paralyzed End prostrated all its
adverSarles.
Where does he stand to-day? Utterly
bankrupt and broken-his administration
dishonored before the world. The great
party which carried him into Office, after in
finite labor and expense, torn into fragments.
Corruptioni like pestilence, so pervading
every department of government, that Dem.
ocrats admit the fact with pain and shame,
and Republicans point to it with exultiDg
indignation.
A wilhsred financial policy, an incapable
foreign policy, Cabinet divided upon prin-
ciple, and united only by the mereenary mo-
tive of sef-preservation. No advocates to
hold up and strengthen his hands. No in
trepid statesman ready TO come forward, in
the spirit of honest sacrifice, to plead in his
behalf, before an outraged country. NJ
hish-minded journalist, devoting himself to
the vindication of his conduct. Nothing
but aversion and contempt. III
The sentiment first uttered in this iourE
nal eighteen months ago, which, when ut
tered, startled so many honest men, namely,
''that the way for the Democratic party I'd
recover its strength, and maintain an elect
i've and powerful organization, is TO cut
loose from the Administrator" SEM
timent is now everywhere accepted as the
only remedy by, which Democracy can ever
reascend in the affections and confidence Of
the nasses.l-. ssh o. Gs1 q. 5--'

The Thinkers and the Doors.

There are muItitudes who regard The
mental as inferior 10 the physical activities,
and who hold the thinker lower than the do
er, in the practical measure Of their judg-
meuls. These cannot be easily convinced
that the men Eho pore over theories and lde-
as, in their closets, may be serving the
world as truly, and, perhaps, vastly more,
than any equal number Of mere hand-work'
ers. Yet such is the case. The power Of
mind may not be SO instantly apparent, but
when ii is applied 10 the machinery OF toll,
in the form Of inventions and improvements,
the dull plodder sees his capacity marvel
ousIy multiplied by this occult and silent
lorce. The hands of themselves, can per.
form ONLY limited and certain task; but
mind steps in, with its infinite con,,ivance,
and the ability Of the hands becomes almost
Gnilless. Mindi-what does not the bes,
physical activity owe TO 1t, on every path
and in every branch Of human endeavor?--
Mind! with power only less than omnip-
oteni; tanning the subtlest elements, land dis
closing the secrets Of universal nature 10
swell the triumphs Of man. Worthy are
all honest physical activities, but except
they be under the superior guidance and
power of mind, man Is but a savage. The
power of mind is The power that eliminates
civilization, and makes man the conquoror
of the earth-and what is granaer, the self.
poised ruler Of himself. c.-E
