Mortality In Paris.

The board of inspection for the city OF
Paris have Just sent in most valuable and in
terssting report to the prefect of the Seine in
reference to the mortality of the capital. The
results announced are exceedingly valuable
acquisitions to statistics Of this nature ell the
world over. In l840 the annual mortality
was one person in twenty.eight; 1868 it was
only one 10 forty; and this great amelioration,
Notwithstanding an increase Of inhabitants, is

The vIlIalny Exposed at Last

All will remember the hue and cry rais-
ed by the Abolition papers and politicians,
during the last Presidential campaign,
about the alleged frauds Of the New York
agents, in taking votes in the army, the
summary arrest of these agents, and the
suppression Of the Votes hsy had taken,
Colonel North, one of the agents, was ar
rested, and after being imprisoned three
months, was finally tried by military
court organized expressly with view to
convict him yet, it now turns out, that
this partisan court could not find particle
of evidence against him, and was forced
to honorably acquit him. The whole
thing-as was known and charged at the
time-was an outrageous fraud, concocted
and endorsed by the Administration, for
the sole purpose of preventing the vote OF
New York from being cast for McClel-
Ian.
A New York paper has obtained some
disclosures in reference to this matter, the
reading of which will be exceedingly re-
freshing to the public. The following il
truthful revelation of the facts in thu
case
. "Says Republican who is in the ring, t.
Democrat in Washington, (supposing SAT-
1 Democrat to be Of his own kidney,) in answe
to the inquiry, "What are the facts concern
!. ing the case of Colonel Northp His answe
a was: The facts are these Our agents wer
in the army some six weeks before the Pres
: dent would permit Governor Seymour's agent
Il to 90 there and we Rscertained there wer

fused passes to go there, for that would nc

Peace Ahead!

This morning we received the news that
Lee and his army had laid down their arms
and we're to return home-the otheers tAN'ug
their baggage, side.arms and passes
We call attention to the correspondence
There is something beyond, which has not y't
been made public, Under these oircum-
stances we can only surmise what has
trauspired in the way Of peace,
One significant fact is, that Lee made the
surrender, not SO much from the immediate
necessity Of the act, as from a consciousness
thati would lead to peace. His letters indi-
cate this. The letter of "Druid," in this
mornings Journal, indicates the same,
If this be true, peace seems only a short
way ahead, If not already agreed upon in ad'
vance. We think Mr. Lincoln and his chiei
adyisers-but especially the heads OF our
armies--have given the Radicals the go-by
and that Peace will be made with restored
Union upon such terms, or nearly such terms
as the conservatives Of the Republican party
have indicated.
Bnt whether peace has been agreed upon oI
not, one result is certain from the surrender
of Lee. Its effect will be very demoralizinl
to the separate government party OF the South
It's very doubtful whether they will max
much of a show of resistance But we mus
wait for facts
We congratu late the country upon the pro-
pect Of peace and of restored Union W
thank God that bloodshed will soon be owe
May it turn out that not another drop sha
be spilled; but that our country shall be re
stored over radicalism on each side. Let 81
cessionism and abolitionism go down togeth'
into one grave as a sacrifice to the unity
our countryside perpetuation of free instit'
tions-and the restoration of the Union an
the Constitution as it was.

Some of the radical Abolition papers
were abusing Horace Greeley because
he advises the President to endeavor to
secure peace and reunion, by offers of
amnesty and no confscation. We agree
with the Cairo Democrat, that "theSe radi-
cal gentlemen love war and hate peace.
Like the celebrated war horse spoken of in
Job and in several Congressional speeches
and not few witty editorials, they scent
the battle--afar off; and keep their
tongues loaded with an abusive epithet to
shoot at any person who has the temerity
to openly desire the speedy return ofpeace
to this distracted land. But they should
not abuse Greeley. Having followed him
like spaniels SO long, it seems cruel that
now, like the dogs of Acteon, they should
turn and rend their master"
