A SINGULAR RIoT.-The "prettiest
girln question, which, during The past
week, has been creating considerable
excitement among the young folks of
Paterson, N. j., ended in riot. Itseems
that bewitching New York lass, who
was stopping in that place during the
levee, commanded larger share OF adj
miration than any of the Paterson young
ladies; so, during the balloting opera
ton, the excitement became so intense
that one of the anxious voters assaulted
the judge of election by striking him
over the head. This was the signal for
q general melee. No one was seriously
hurt during the demonstration, but mat
tiers got considerably mixed, and it was
to tell who took the prize Of
beauty, the New Yorker or the Pater-
.onian.

A curious INCIDENT lately occurred in
a French criminal court A young wo-
man, carrying a child less than a year
old in her arms, was arraigned for hav-
ing stolen three gold ten-franc pieces
from the house of q lady where she
called on business. The prisoner stated
in her defence that her baby snatched
the coins from table without her
knowledge, and carried them home in
its hand; that she had just discovered
them there, aud was preparing to go
back with the money, when she was ar
rested. The defence was thought most
improbable, owing to the child's age; but
the president, in order to test its posi-
bility, ordered one of the ushers to lay
three gold pieces on the ledge of the
dock, within the baby's reach. The
moment the little thing saw the money
it clutched the pieces firmly and at
tempted to put them in its mouth. This
experiment satisfied the tribunal that
the woman had told the truth, and she
was in consequence acquitted of the
charge. fF ~ I'D. -.-,re.-.. =

Facts About the 7-3Os---The Ad

IT'S LIBERAL INTEREsr-The general rate
of interest is six per cent, payable annually.
This is seven and three-tenths, payable semi
annually. If you lend on mortgages, there
must be a searching of titles, lawyers fees
stamp duties and delays, and you will finally
have returned to you only the same kind Of
money you would receive from the Govern.
ment, and less of it If you invest in this
loan, you have no trouble. Any bank or bank
er will obtain it for you without charge Tc
each note or bond are affixed FIVE coupons
or interest tickets, due at the expiration Of
each successive halfyear. The holder of a
note has simply to cut off one of these cou.
pons, present it to the nearest bank or Gov
ernment Agency, and receive his interest," the
note itself need not be presented at all Oh

equivalent, when due, to money. If you wish

The Presidents inaugural.

FELLow CorNTRYMEN: At this second ap-
pearing to take the oath of the Presidential
Office, there is less occasion for an extended
address than there was at the first Then,
statement, somewhat in detail of a course to
be pursued, seemed very fitting and proper
Now, at the expiration of four years, during
which public declarations have been constant
ly called forth, on every point and phase of
the great contest which still absorbs the atten-
ton and engrosses the energies of the Nation,
little that is new could be presented
The progress of our arms, upon which all
else chiefly depends, is as well known to the
public as to myself, and it is, l trust, reasona-
bly, satisfactory and encouraging to all With
high hopes for the future, no prediction in re-
gard to it is ventured. On the occasion cor
responding to this..four years ago all thoughts
were anxiously directed to an impending civil
war; all dreaded it; all sought to avoid it; while
the inaugural address was being delivered from
this place, devoted altogether to- saving the
Union without war, insurgents were in the city
seeking to destroy it-without war seeking to
dissolve the Union and divide the effects by
negotiation. Both parties deprecated war, but
one of them would make war rather than let
the nation survive, and the other would ac-
cept war rather than let it perish, and the war
came
One-eighth of the whole population were col
ored slaves, not distributed generally over the
Union, but localized in the southern portion
of it. These slaves constituted a peculiar
and powerful interest. All knew that this in
terest was somehow the cause of the war.
To strengthen, perpetuate and extend This
interest was the object for which the inshrg-
ents would rend the Union by war, while the
Government claimed no right to do more than
restrict the territorial enlargement of it
Neither party expected for the war the magni-
tude or the duration which it has already at
tained
Neither anticipated that the cause of the
conflict might cease, Or even before the con-
hict itself should cease Each looked for an
easier triumph and result less fundamental
and astounding. Both read the same Bible
and pray to the same God and each invokes
His aid against the other.
1t may seem strange that any men should
dare to ask Just God $ assistance in wringing
their bread from the sweat OF other mems fa-
ces, but let us Judge not that we be not Judged.
The prayers of both should not be answered
That of neither has been answered fully.
