The Habeas Corpus In New Jersey.

The Newark Evening Journal. the leading
Democratic organ in New jersey. uses pretty
strong language in announcing the result of
the late election in that State. 1t saya:
"The functions of the Provost Marshals
for new Jersey have been suspended by tn
vote of the sovereign people-and such a
vote! Upcle Abraham will hear the thur
der at the White House, and make, a note of
the fact that the Jersey Blues are aroused
in defense of their own rights and liberties.
The habeas corpus has been re enacted in this
State, and will not again be suspended
Mark that. The iron doors of Fort Lay
fayette will never again swing on their him
ges to admit free New Jersey man with =
out form Of trial. Joel Parker will see to
this. No more suspension of newspapers,
no threats against free speech. no reign of
terror in a peaceful State. That has played
out. The right of the people to criticise
the acts of the National Administration has
been gloriously asserted, and hereafter no
raltry tyrant may rise to dictate thoughts
and words to the citizen, and to curb his
honest expressions within the range of Gov
erume eut eXpediency."

The negroes are very insolent, ommitting
all sorts of depredations. Those who have
enlisted in the United States service are to
be seen strutting about the streets, display

whites are deprived of thers-a pretty state

NUMBER "a
Women at Twenty-One.

When young girl reaches the age Of At
teen or sixteen she begins to think OF tho
mysteriousssub bject of matrimouy-a state the
delights of which our youthful imagination
shadows forth in the most captivating forms.
1t is made the topic of light and incidental
conversation among her companions, and Il
is recurred to with increasing interest every
time it is brought upon the tapsis. When
she grows little older she ceases to smatter
about matrimony, and thinks more intently
on the ali important subject. It eugrosses
her thoughts by day aud dreams by night;
and she pictures to herself the felicity of be-
ing welded to the youth for whom she
cherishes secret but consuming lame
She surveys herself in the mirror. and, as it
generally tells fattering tale, she turns
from 1t with the pleasing conviction that
her beauty will enable her to conquer the
heart of the most abdurate, and whoever
else may die in a state of single blessednesss
she is destined to become. ere many years
roll by, a happy bride. From the age OF
eighteen to twenty is the very witching time
of female life.
During that period the female heart is
moro susceptible to the soft and tender in
fluences of love than at any other; and we
appeal to our fair reader to say. WHETHER II
inclination was alone consulted 10 the bust-
n eSS, moro marriages Wouio ho' s"No P'"S~

by which it is preceded or followed? 1t 10
the grand climax of love; and she who
passes it without entering into the state OF
m matrim ony may chance to pass several year:
of her lifa ere she is caught in the msshes OF
Hymen. The truth is. that the majority OF
women begin to move more houshtfully
when they have turned the age of twenty.
The giddiness Of the girl gives place to the
sobriety of the women. Frivolity is ssucceed-
ed by reflection, and reason reigns where
passion previously held undisputed sway
The care and the anxiety of life press them
selves m more palpably, they tend to weaken
the effect of the sansuine anticipation ofun
mingled felicity in the marriage state which
the mind had formed in its youthful dreams.
In short, to use common phrase, women
after twenty, "look ere they leap"

OFFICERS OF THE FEDERAL ARMY ARRHs.
TED FOR STEALING HORSES IN KENrUcKx.
We have frequently heard complaints from
citizens of Keutncky that attaches OF the
Federel armies were in the habit OF ofstsalin4
from them horses, cows and other property,
on the plea that they were disloyal, and
therefore their stock, &c, was liable to con-
fscation, but we never placed much conf
dence in these reports. Yesterday. however,

roughs was a disloyal citizen, and his prop

roushs, who is known and recognized a. q
true Union man, suspected all was not rlgnts
and came to this city, where he found. with
the assistance of Marshal Butts. Of Coving-
ton, that the Messrs. Odin and Dunn had
disposed of the horses at public auction.
Police officers Schuyler and Bemiss, of this
city, and Marshal Butts. apprehended the

Northern Accounts of the Roanoke Affair.

The New York Herald Of tho 18th, devotes three
entire pages to description of the Great and Clio
rous Union Victory at Roanoke"
The Federal forces engaged comprised 81 vessels
and gunboats of all classes, and 10 regiments Of in
fantry.
Bennett considers the victory unequalled by any
thing which the Federal arms have yet achieved.
The Herald says:
The battle was desperate one; but from the be-
ginning when our troops were landed at Ashiy's
harbor. on Friday afternoon, the 18th instant, sue
cess seemed to attend them. The rebels were en-
trepched in the centre of the Island but by the gal
lantry of our they were dislodged at the point
of the bayonet and driven towards the Northern
end of the Island where those who were not killed
or wounded, surrendered Our loss is said to be
about fifty kllled-thrty of the army and twenty Of
the naval force. Our wounded number about one
hundred and forty.
THE BATTLE
A reconnaissance was made on Friday morning.

field. She and the gunboat Underwater opened
fire upon the rebel forts and batteries at eleven
o'clock in the morning.
The gunboats and vessels of the enemy were at

The Fanny, the little propeller that taken from
US some short time ago by the rebels, was in the
fight and was burned
Our boats advanced to the attack in three COL
umns-the first being led by the gunboat Stars and
Stripes, under the command Of Captain Worden /;
the second by the Louisiana, in charge of Captain

Of Captain Davenport The gunboats that were
nearest to the forts and batteries were the Cress
