Government Robbers.

The New York Journal Of Commerce has an ar
ticle showing up the swindling propensities of
the leading men of the Administration party
and their late mutual exposures and recrimina-
tions. 1t says
The recent outbreak in New York between
several of the most distinguished leaders in the
party, is most important commentary on the
character of the whole organization. 1t mat
ters not who is most criminal among the men
thus exposing each others frauds and Yillanies.
1t is fair TO say that the veteran Albany edi-
tor stands unconvicted and only assailed, while
he heaps proof on proof against his assailants.
But whatever be the measure of guilt, here is the
terrible fact that those recognized as the
most prominent men in the radical party are
charged by their own allies in the public news
papers, with gross frauds on the army, the Gov
ernment and the public, and instead Of disproy-
ing the charge with the Indignation Of honest
men and the ability which they must possess, if
innocent, resorting to the courts to establish
their character, they unanimously content them
selves with throwing back charges of similar
corruption and crime against their accusers.-
''You robbed the drawer says one; 'you stole
first, is the reply; you stole the most" is the
rejoinder, Look at this scene: a perfect storm
of accusation flying back and forth in the public
papers, among the most distinguished radical
leaders, politicians, contractors, otice-holders
etc. each seeking to prove the other public
plunderer, and each charging upon the other
specific instances of robbery, involving thous
ands aud hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The article closes with the following pertinent
queries and declarations
Shall these things continue? Are the eyes of
the people still closed? We think not. TO op-
pose such men, to work and pray for the over
throw of an Administration thus involved, is
plainly enough the way to support and defend
the Government of the United States.

WOMAN AS AN ADv1sER.-Bulwer says, in his
recent volume of essays:
at is wondrous advantage to man. in ev-
cry pursuit or vocation, to secure an adviser in
a sensible woman. In woman there is at once
a subtle delicacy of tact and plain soundness
of judgment which are rarely combined to an
equal degree in man. A woman if she be re-
ally your friend, will have a sensitive egard for
your character, honor, and repute. She will
seldom counsel you to do shabby thing, for a
woman-friend always desires to be proud of
you. At the same time, her constitutional tim
idity makes her more cautious than your male
friend She therefore seldom counsels you to
do imprudent thing. By female friendships
l mean pure friendships-those in which there
is no admixture of the passion of love except in
a married state. A mans best female friend is
a wife of good sense and good heart, whom he
loves, and who loves him. If he have that, he
need not seek elsewhere But, supposing the
to be without such helpmate, female friend
ships he must still have, or his intellect will be
without garden, and there will be many an un-
needed gap even in its strongest fence. Better
and safer, of course, such friendships where dis
PARTIES of years or circumstances put the idea
of love ont of the question Middle life has
rarely this advantage youth and old age have
We may have female friendships with those
much older and those much younger than our
selves. Moere's old housekeeper was great
help to his genius and Montaigne's philosophy
takes both gentler and loftier character Of
wisdom from the date in which he finds, in Ma
rie de GOurnay, an adopted daughter, certainly
beloved by me, says the Horace of essays, with
more than paternal love, and involved in my
solitude and retirement as one of the best parts
of my being Female friendship, indeed, is to
a man the bulwark and sweet ornament of his
existence. To his mental culture it is inyalu-
able without it, all his knowledge of books
will never give him knowledge of the world"

God Speed the Day.

God speed the day when Peace shall reign
0'er all our land once more,
When Wars destructive work OF pain
Shall cease from shore to shore;
When gathered hosts to peaceful glen
And crowded mart shall go
To work the paths of peace again. n. t,. ..
And cease the murderous blow
God speed the day when Wrong shall cease,
And Right uprear her head
The day which shall the oppressed release,
And speak Oppression dead
When Liberty again shall come boz.
To chase away our fears,
To shed a light around our home,
And dry the truant tears
God speed the day when blood shall flow
No more the battle plain,
When weeping hearts no more shall bow
Above the youthful slain;
Then from our hearts in gratitude
Wen raise our voice above,
And thank the Giver Of all good
For his returning love! lo rs.

A DUTCH RoMANcB.-Several of the Paris
journals tell the following story relating to the
interpreter of the japanese embassy now in
Paris Frantz Bleckman was a native of Hol-
land, but being of rowing disposition en-
bark ed on board of a vessel bound to Batavia,
to seek his fortune. Years passed by, and moth
ing being heard of him, his friends at last con-
clude6 that some accident must have befalen
him, and that he was not living. His father re-
mained in Holland, but being unsuccessful in
business, he came to Paris. Here his resources
soon failed him. and on writing to friend to
solicit small loan, he received the following
letter in reply: ~ send you the money you ask
for, and add to it the Photographic portrait of
the Japanese embassy. You will mark the face
of one of those strangers for be is the very i'm
age of your son. The father could not but
perceive the resemblance; the features were GER
tainly the same, but the closely shayen head and
the Oriental costume greatly puzzled him. He,
however, went to the court yard Of the hotel in
which the embassy was staying, and for
tunate as to arrive just as the japanese were
passing to go out. The original of the portrait
he at once recognized, and called out ''Is that
you, Frantz ~ In moment the son-for Frantz
it really was-and the old man were locked in
each others arms. The ambassadors, who wit
messed the scene, were greatly moved; and old
Bleckmans troubles were now at an end, as
the son is wealthy and prosperous.
