On THE ROAD To MoNARcHY.-Sen-
ator Summer, the leading Abolition fan
attic in the u. Senate, has introduced a
bill in that body making the appointment
of all Federal officers to be during good
behaviour. This means. for life.-Just
think of it-every postmaster, every Gus
tom-house officer, every surveyor of port,
every light house tender. everv U. s.. Dis
trict Judge, and every other officer ap-
pointed by Executive authority, holding
Office for life. By this, old Abe would
saddle upon the country an army, amount
ing to many thousands, of men of tbs
deepest. abolition dye, to infict their
official presence among men as petty aut-
o%crats, for life. Who says we are not on
the high road to a monarchy, if not a des-
potism most absolute. This is the aim
and object of the men in power, and they
will have it before they viii give up the
rule of the country.

. Prentlee on Benneft.

The New York Herald a few days ago
made a vulgar and libelous attack upon
Prentice of The Louisville Journal, &C
cusing him of being a'whisky bottle, and
charging that all western editors were
bottles of whisky. In reply Prentice goes
back on Bennett in the following slashing
style: tIa
1t is not supposabie that any paper on
earth could have aught to gain from a dis
pute with The New York Herald. The
editor of that concern is so low down that
fifty millstones around his kneck, waist,
arms and legs, couldn't sink him lower
VIGOROUSLY he has been oftener Kicked
and h~orse-whipped than any other man
in the United States. Whoever has had
the slightest inclination for horse-whipping
or kicking him has done it. The license to
operate on him in either way or both could
emit ave been more perfect if he had worn
the words "to let" in chalk-marks upon
his shoulders and coat tail. When he has
walked up each morning, his reflection has
been snow Is it to, be q horse-whipping or
a kicking to-day" and occasionally it has
been both, eked out with a smars nose
pulling. In fact his nose has been so
frequently twisted that it is an entirely
one-sided affair, and We think, that, in
common fairness, "the twister" should be
sentenced by a court of justice to Gun
twist the twist"
The editor of The Herald is said to
have a great deal of money, but his kicks
far exceed his coppers. The only time
he was ever known to thank God was
when sharp-toed boots and shoes were
changed to square-toed. It is said, that,
when kicked, whether the application was
made by boots, shoes, brogans or slippers,
at what particular store the article was
bought, what was its cost, what its quail
ty, aud whether it was made of the hide
of Durhams, short horns. Attorneys,
Herefords, or Devons. When cattle were
killed, it was a frequent understanding,
that, while the fat was to be tried on the
fire, the leather was to be tried on the ed
itor Of The Herald. He is regarded as
being undoubtedly the best judge of
leather in New York, not that he is a
leather-deaier, but that leather-dealers
have had 50 much to do with him. He
has come so often in contact with leather
that the part of him chiefly concerned
has itself become leather. So he not on
ly walks upon leather when he walks, but
upon leather when he sits.
The editor of The Herald has lived a
good deal longer than he ought to have
done, but it is to be hoped that he can't
live always. And, if he ever dies, his
hide should be tanned to leather, that is,
the small portion of it that hasn't been,
his hair used as shoemaker's bristles, and
his bones made into shoeing-horns.

Read This.

The following is from the Pittsburg
Commercials Republican paper of IN
doubted orthodoxy:
$50 fearfully corrupt has the public
servants in some branches become, that
during tho present year (l863) a few
scoundrels have been tried, convicted, and
sent to prison whose united frauds, or more
properly robbers, amounted to a sum lar
ger than the entire annual reoenue fthe
country during the administration of Wash.
ington; and we venture to say, that of the
extraordinary large sum raised by the
Government, since the beginning of the
war, fully one-fourth has been flched by
the untried scoundrels who, secure in their
relationship to the members of Congress
who would be disgraced by their exposure,
or relying on his interest in a community
of profits, openly faunt their ill-gesten
riches, in the face of day, and with the
swelling insolence of wealth and office,
arrogate to themselves, with a pride so lof-
ty and ridiculous as to excite the wrath
and ridicule both of men and gods"
