security worth looking at.

MORALS IN CHIcAGo.-A lovely view of morals
as existing in delectabe Chicago, is given by the
Times in review of that Sodom Says the
editor:
Married men and women do not comprise the
category. Beardless, undeveloped boys, neglect
their school books and plot surreptitious inter-
views with equally amorous maids. A boy of
eighteen years, who cannot boast of these Illicit
exploits, or who has any qualms of conscience
in that respect, is hooted at by his fellows as
dolt, an idiot, ''dogan." Fond fathers and
tender mothers do not know it, faithful guar
dians are kept in ignorance, watchfu teachers
are obivious of the fact, but it is true, and the
experience of large proportion of our young
men will fully corroborate the assertion. Ply
sicians hold secrets to-day which, if made known,
would cause the community to run stark mad
with wonder. If vice, and crime, and debauch-
cry were unmasked, and exposed to the broad
light of critical inspection this fair earth would
assume an aspect so hideous that angels would
weep, devils laugh, and the good and virtuous
would lift up their hands in holy horror, and
sigh for the extinction Of this sinful age.

take a look into San Quentin. Out of some six

1t is obvious that there can be on the part OF

such "unanimity of action as the President desl-
derates until the political friends Of the President
shall come TO some agreement with regard TO the

while combating the view which the Times takes
Of it, who docs not see that the painest considers

the Administration measure of caution in the
premises, lest, in their anxiety to be unanimous
with its supporters they should find themselves at
cross purposes with their honest intentions to be

and to do what the Administration would have
them TO dol Unity Of thought and simplicity OF

The Opposing Generals--Grant and
Lee.
LIEUTENANT GENERAL GRANT.

LIEUTENANT GENERAL GRANT.
Many attempts have been made at a
portrature Of the Lieutenant General
who now commands the loyal armies oI
the United States. Some are eulogistic
some critical, and others toadyisms. II
must be confessed he is very difficult
su bject for the literary limner. In phys
ique he is ordinary, almost diminutive.
In his presence there is nothing impress
i've, as people expect heroes to be-Do
show--no pretentioo--a low, small, but
distinct yoice--silent and retiring-small
in stalue--he is compactly built and ca
puble of great activity and endurance.
Though of the fewest possible words, he
is not morose or repulsive. This reti.
cence is not the result Of misantbropy or
ill-nature, for no trial of temper ruflies
the calmness of lis mind. No officer is
moro approuchable. There is no General
commanding so ready to dispense with
ceremony or the show ofrnnk, to listen
carefully and to reply plain to the point.
His hair is sandy---nothing else can be
made Of it-thick and bushy, as yet no..
marked with grew. The barbor has had
nothing to do about his face since the
war commenced, wherefore much OF the
native expression of his countcnance is
lost under moustache and beard. A dry,
straight cut mouth, aud clear grey eyes,
are about all that are visible. On his
forehead the skin, is well tanned and
Drowned by exposure, is drawn over the
frontal bone tight and smooth as drum
head. Not wrinkle OF frown is ever
seen there. II is the expression of i'm.
movable calmness. His forehead is
higher and better than it appears TO be,
for il is concealed by coarse, bushy hair
Incessant, close, and rapid though is go
ing on there, however quiet the external
signs mny be.
Gen. Grant cannot be called genius.
At West point he was not considered
very bright, only mediocre. Where is
the secret OF his military renown!
He is not martinez OF drill mos.er.
In matters Of detail he is not a disciple
marian. His troops exhibii at first ac-
quainiance no special like or dislike; GER
tainly no enthusiasm. Their affection
aud confidence are not the growth Of a
day, bul camptign.
IL Is not always necessary to have gem

OF The fighting which has lately ta-
ken place in Virginia has settled three
things thut many croakers have doubted.
/. That Gen. Grant is match for
Leo in strategy. 2. That our men will
igh, as brayely and impetuously as the
rebels. 3. That our cavalry is superior
to that boasted urn Of the rebel service
From these ascortained and well uuthen-
lcated facts we may reasonably deJuce
the conclusion that our army with the
tide Of battle in IT, favor will fight with
more herslstency and determination than
the rebels; and that Gen. Sheridan will
aguin be heard from doing efficient SER
vice IN crippling Lee's army. The pros
poet of full aud finai triumph was new
er better Erie Dispatch.
