The Russian EsalI-The SUPPER
A Contrast.

The New. York Journal of Commerce,
speaking of the Russian ovation and
ball on Thursday night, says that as
this is one Of the events that may leave
its traces on centuries to COME, it Is
proper to give, for the sake Of history,
an account of the articles used on that
magnificent greeting of the represen-
tatives of the Imperial Czar, viz:
Twelve thousand oysters-10,000
poulette and 1000 picked.
Twelve monster salmon-thifty
pounds each.
Twelve hundred game birds.
Two hundred and fifty turkeys.
Four hundred chickens.
One thousand pounds of tender
loin. ,...
One hundred pyramids pastry.
One thousand large loaves.
Three thousand five hundred bottles
of wine.
The Evening Post, on the evening
after the ball, closed an article al
follows:
We could not help thinking this morn
ing, as we read, professionally, the la.
bored details of all the vanity and
pomp which the morning paper heaps
up: How, if Meade and Lee had
fought yesterday, and side by side
with these gorgeous descriptions came
the heart-rendering narratives of ter
thousand of our brothers slain in bat
tie, or fearfully mutilated for life!-
Indeed, there was in some of the morn
ing papers, side by side with these la
borate cataloguse of finery and dis,
play, lists of names, four or five col.
umns in length, of the noble officers Of
our armies who are now pining amid
the filth and enduring the privatations,
miseries and insults ofthe prison-hous
es of Richmond. Remembering those
in bonds, as bound with them, the
contrast could not but seem a little
ghastly.

The Different Ways They Take

We last week made an extract from
JEFF. Davis organ, the Richmond En-
quirer, which manifested the joy of
jeff. and his rebel coadjutors at the
defeat of Vallandigham and the cop
perheads. 1t will be rememberedhow
the rebel organ said that ''a crop Of
Unionist'' in the South would have
been the result Of the election Of a
Democrat in Ohio; and then, with
what an air of relief, the said organ
exclaimed 'Far better as it ISL
Well, it now appears, however, that
the Richmond Enquirer did not speak
the will and wish of all the South
when it endorsed thd triumph of
Brougb. 1t appears that the newspa-
pers ever of Dixie differ on whether
Brough's election is matter of rejoic-
ing or not. At least the Raleigh
North Carolina Standard paper
that is in bad repute with jeff. because
it constantly manifes.s most "disloy-
al affection for 'the Union as 1T was
is reported to have taken a differ
ent, or in other words, desponding,
view Of the result of the late elections.
Indeed 1t says that defeat afthe Dem
ocrats in Ohio and Pennsylvania show
"that Lincoln will be reelected, and
the prospects Of peace more distant
than ever. -. e .
1t is interesting thus to observe
the different ways that these South>
ern papers look upon the matter. To
Democrats it is not at all unsatisfac-
tory to observe that the outright rebel
organ looks upon the case precisely
in the way that they don't look at

Frederick the Great century ago, wished
to enlarge his possessions and his palace. A
cprtain mill obscurel the view, and he offsr-
ed the Prusian owner fair price for 1t. He
refused to sell it because it was paternal
estate. Frederick then ordered the mill to-
be torn down, which was done The miller
stood calmly by, saying, that he would a.
bide by the law. He must obey his sover
egn, but the law did not compel him to sell
till ne chose.
He appealed to the courts, and the courts
decided that Frederick should rebuild ,ths
mill. This he cheerfully did, thanking God
that he had court not influenced BY impe :
rial fear or favor. Twenty years ago the
present owner of the mill became involved
and offered to sell it to Frederick William,
the successor of Frederick the Great. The
sovereig refused to buy, but gave him So OOO

4 Republican Paper Makes am
Indecent Attack upon IA Mem :
hcr of the Cabinet.

The Dayton (O.) Journal, very
fierce and bitter Administration paper,
makes the following scurrilous and in
decent attack upon member Of the
Cabinet. 1t says;
"Some of our cotemporaries are de-
manding the dismissal of Montgomery
Blair from the Cabinet. If he had
either self-respect or patriotism, he
would retire voluntarily, and relieve
the President of the responsibility of
dismissing him. In bitterly assailing
a fellow-member of the Cabinet, he
was guilty of a gross indecency. 1t
isalleged that he boasted that "the
Blair family is power in this coun-
try, and that the sooner politicians
consult it, the better for them" A
skunk has power among quanrupeds,
but it don't follow that lions should
consult it. ;"
Now, Mr.. Blair is one of the men
who compose the Government and
as the Journal considers all persons
disloyal who arc opposed to its meas
ures, and labor to bring them into dis
what penalty would have to
be melted out to it under its own rule?
It's certainly attacking the "Govern-
ment" rather strong when a prominent
member oft enjoying tho confidence
of the President is compared to a
skunk,

Political Use of tsse Army-The
Proof.

The Jeffercon IN. Y } Union, noting the
great importation Of Republican soldiers in.
to this State, says:
We have letter from the Tenth Artillery
informing US that from fifty to one hundred
and fifty had been selected by captain Tag
gart and others, to cume home to vote, all
Republicans, but we are not advised wheth-
er they succeeded in getting them fnrlougb.
ed, as Colonel Piper was opposed to the
move.
4 friend Of ours received letter from q
Democratic brother in the same regiment,
informing him that he had been unable, from
sickness, to do military duty for several
weeks, and had tried to get a fuflough, had
failed, and that well men, who were Repub-
licaps, received furloughs last week.
The same writer says agents from the 10y
al leagues throughout the State have been to
the army to select men to come home 10
vote. John Hotchkihs represented the 10y
al league OF this village.
We have letter from a detachment OF
the Third New York Artillery. informing
us that the same thing was practiced In that
regiment.
Many of the soldiers themselves admit
that they agreed to vote the "Union" ticket
before they got furloughs. We can multiply
evidences, but no respectable man will deny
that Democrats could not get furloughs,
while Republicans did not even ask for
them.
We learn frotn the Tenth Artillery that
there were one hundred and fifty from that
regimint furloughed, and there were but
eight Democrats among them-these being
smuggled in by Democratic officer, the
Democrats concealing their political opinion
The detail from the Tenth Artillery did not
arrive, however, until this "Wednesday
morning. We wish we were at liberty to
publish letter we received last evening from
Democrat in the ranks, but we are not, for
writer might be found out aud made to SUI
fer. We have only to say there will cer-
tanly come day OF reckoning with this

TOO LATE
The train that arrived here Tuesday oven
+, ing brought several hundred soldiers destin-
ed for this. st. Lawrence and Franklin
counties. They were detained on the road
by some means, and Iailed TO reach their
homes in season to vote. Some Democrats
, in this village talked "Union" to them at
the depot, expressing their regret at their
delay, but telling them, I'VE have wiped cut
your en- nsmies the Democrats, without your
help" at which they expressed satisfaction.
