other, they should be extirpated. But if
they have no liquor to sell they are filling
the camp hospitals with cases of diarrhea and
dysentery induced by eating their unwhoe-
some pies, cakes, preserves. and candies In
many cases the regimental sutler has been
driven from camp at the earnest request of
the conscientious surgeons, and we have yet
to meet an honest and intelligent colonel
who did not pronounce them unmitigated
nuisances. The few things that the soldier
needs besides his rations-such as tobacco,
pipes, some small articles CT clothing, sta
tionery, &c.-can easily be kept for sale by
the regimental commissary, and thu all
apology for the presence of the sutler would
be destroyed. We hope that friends Of Tenn
2erance and good morals will, either through
the already organized channels of the San
itary Commission, or otherwise, address
themselves to the task Of investigating this
matter and procuring for it that attention
from Government which it's Importance de-

The Elections.

In New York, the entire Democratic state
ticket is elected by from 10000 to $4,000
majority-possi5ly more. OF the 81 MEM
bers OF Congress, We conclude that IL are
Unionists and Is Democrats. AS to the leg
islature, the Democrats figure up the assem-
bly, at 81 for their side, 56 Unionits, and Is
not heard from. This would imply small
Union majority. The senate is composed of
% Unionists and ten Democrats.
In New Jersey, the Democracy has swept
everything high and dry. Their Governor
will perhaps have $4,000 majority. OF the
five congressman, four are Democrats. In the
legislature the Democrats will control both
branches, and consequently elect United
States Senator.
In Massachusetts, Gov Andrew, Union, is
reelected by very large majority. All the
congressman are unionists, unless Mr. Sleep
er, the peoples candidate in the Hid Dis
trict should disaproint expectation. The
others arc all straight Republican, Unionists
The legislature is, of course, overwhelmingly
Experimentation.
/ In Illinois the Unionis,s elect five congress
men, the Democrats eight. and the seventh
district is yet in doubt. There are impor-
tant state officers voted for.
In Wisconsin the Democrats gain largely
they elect two congressmen-the Unionists
elect three, and one district is not reported.
| In Kansas it is believed that the entire
Union-Republ;can state ticket is chosen.-
A. c. Wilder is elected to Congress by abou,
1000 majority.
I Little Delaware, nominal Slave state
stands boldly up for the Union. Latest fig
ures give Fisher, Union, for Congress nine
majority-rather small; but then it is a
small state. For Governor, VIM. Cannon
! Union, has about 100 majority.

Like simmer nloSSn nmS Snrang."
The Late Major General Richardson.

Gen Richardson, whose death from wounds
received at Antietam took place at Sharps-
burg on the 4th, was native of Vermont.
and is said to be of famed fighting ances estry.
he being a descendant of the revolutionary
hero, Gen Putnam He was educated at West
Point. and served nearly twerty years in the
army of the United States. which he left with
the rank of Major a short time ago. His
experience as fighter has been very great
During the Mexican war he distinguished
himself in nearl ly every important battle, and.
perhaps. received more breve;s than any other
officer of his rank. He commanded brig
ade At the first battle If Bull Run and the
skirmishes which preceded ii, and distln-
gu.hed himself by the plain. short and busi-
ness Ike report of his operations, as much
as by his bravery in the field. He was
known in the army by the soubriquet Of
"Fi.htins Dick" and it waS said Of him by
an otficer-hinnself greatly distinguished for
bravery-under whom he served, that "Rich-
ardson never appeared well ont of battle.
but that in one he was magnificent" He
had the reputation of being fearless to a
faul: for while in action he seemed t. hold
his life as the matter of the very least con-
sequence that could occupy his mind. An
account of his personal appearance says:
General Richardson was about six feet
! in hight, broad chrsted, compact. powerful
! in form. He was bronzed by the constant
exposure of many years OF military life, hac
loud, sonorous voice, which it would taxi
rlanv cannon to drown. and piercing
fiery eve. which few men could meet in an
ger. His intonation and pronunciation were
: those of New Englander. No one whr
could hear him speak could doubt where h
came from. He was no holiday soldier. an'
had no doubt that war is earnest business
in which men must shoot ans be shot, ant
no; mere opportunity to wear fine clothes
and disport in the bravery of evening pa
rades."
! General Richardson was the person VIII
preferred the charges against Colonel Mile
for bad conduct on the field at the first bal
tie of Bull Run. The latter died fror
wounds received at Harper's Ferry, tn
former from wounds received at Antietan
both having received the wounds within
few days of each other.-JOunal.

Caprices OF the Empress Eugenie.

Louis Napoleons spouse is as capricious
as she is pretty. The hoop skirt is one of
her notions, and OH the whole q beneficial
one. Embroidered petticoats were another
of the Empress whims, engendered by her
pity for the distressed seamstresses of Paris.
\ sudden and unroyal-like visit to London
was another caprice, causing a quarrel with
Louis and other family troubles. Becoming
distressinsly pious was another imperial no.
ton; promising to have second baby, an
other. But the queerest and most startling
feminine fancy was publishing newspaper.
La France is the Empress organ, which Eu-
rope reads with interest, on whose contents
the stockholders speculate, and which forms
the new sensation" of Paris. 1t has an cnor-
nous circulation and is impertinent and
assuming. Fancy Eugenic's lovely hands
soiled with the ink Of proof sheets. lmag-
inc her selecting, clipping, revising, arrans
ing and inditing; conceiving leaders instead
of children, and arranging ideas instead o
colors. All the pocket money that she car
squeeze out Of her grim lord is now wasted i,
types; all her time is passed in selecting ed
itors and prescribing copy. Some day 1t
France will 60 too far, and Louis Napoleon
the "sphinx," will become desperately say
age. He will stretch forth his morally hug
paw, and like an egg-shell, his wife's news
PAL er will crackle and disappear. They hav
a very quiet and efficient way of regulatin
the press in Paris.
