TnE PRESIDENTIAL POPULAR NorE The to
tai popular vote polled at the Presidential
election in $50, was 3,147,5l2. In 1856 the
total popular vote was + ,049, ,20l, showing an
increase of little more than 100000 in four
years. 1t is therefore probable that 5,000,-
600 votes were polled at the recent election
fthese Brechnridge has probably obtained
about as many as the whole South polled for
Buchanan in l856-6OO 600. Bell has prob
ably obtained about as many votes as Fill
more secured in l856-S75o00. The re-
naming 3,525000 were divided between Lin
CON and Douglas, the former probably re-
oeiving about 100000, and the latter about
1,525, 900 These are. of course, mere esti-
mates, but we think they will prove tolcraJ-

REvoLTING BARBARlrY OF \ HUSBAND The
Dubuque (Iowa) Herald in speaking of un-
happy marri ges, says:
We know Of case in this city, in which
the parties are young man, the son of re-
spectacle family; the wife beautiful sensi-
ble woman, whom he married about a year
since 1t is fact notorious to every one in
the vicinity, that for the last six or ten months
the latter has led life compared to which
the worst slavery of the harcm would be
blessing. Time and again has he feled her
to the floor in transport ofjealousy, and for
weeks she has not been for a moment from
under his espionage At other times he has
torn every strip of clothing from her body,
then lashed her as he would a naked hound
There are a thousand other indiguities perpe-
trated by him upon the wife, which we can
not mention suffice that they are of chap
acter which would cause the bronzed cheek
of the worst villain to color from Indignation
and disdain.

We have accidentally gotten possession o
the following little poem, and publish it OF
our own responsibility. If the authoress dc
manda satisfaction, we are ready to meet her
Pistols and coffee for two:
The Street Beggar's Doom.
FOUNDED on AN ACTUAL INCIDENT.
"Frosty and clear,
Still, cold and drear,"
And the words fell from quvering lips.
Each star twnkles bright,
This keen winter night,
And with diamonds the iccle tips"
"Frosty and cold
Friendless and old"
And the withered form tremblcd with pain.
LONELY and drear
Hoping with fear
That Death will a victim soon gain"
"Cold, pale and bright
Is the Moons frigid ight
The shadows-how coldly itcasts
Even thin and old,
Pnched and wrinkled with cold,
A freezing shade cause as pass"
Burning lamps twnked bright
And the warm paror light
Fell aslant on the old woman's way;
But while gay hearts within
Whrled to loves merry din,
The old woman caught but a ray.
"0ace glddy and vain
In pleasure bent train
moved. d.-and was happy as they.
But now-bent and DID,
All friende ess and cold
wander by night and by day"
On the pave, iced and bare
Meath the Moons frgid glare
She sank down to t-freeze-and die.
While frost friuged the trees
Winters fancy to please,
In silence her soul fed on high.
Morn came, bright and cold!
In rags tattered and old
The dame all unconsciousy law:
While the frost of her breath
The pinched features of death
Had powdered and dressed for the dav.
Frosty and drear,
Sad, cold and scar
Was the dead-feld that welcomed her home.
Meath the Moons freezing glare,
Meath a sod bleak and bare
She rests in 4 street-beggar's tomb
