what the President Must Do.

The NeD York World thus expresses it.
self as TO the duty of the President:
The President must either discomft the
radicals or suffer discontinue himself, If
his Message Is firm and explicit, he has too
much self-respect to recede from ground
deliberately taken In the face of the world.
II the radicals do not succumb he will APP
peal to the country in the Congressional
elections of next year, when he IL morally
certain Of victory.
But If the President, In his Annual Mes
sage, should take refuge In vagueness and
indecision, he would lose the high vantage
ground which gives him so commanding u
position, and makes him master of the sit
uation.
The Radicals seeing inlhis indecison an
ACKNOWLEDGMENT of their power, would take
new courage. Having discovered that he
feared them; that he had been reduced by
them to state ofvacillation, they would fol-
low up their advantage. The President hav-
ing thus forfeited the confidence ofthat part
of his fellow-citizens who had faith in his
vigor of character and political courage, he
would be at the mercy of the Radicals, and
compelled to capitulate on such terms as
they, in their forbearance, might think tit
to grant him. The country has mistaken
the character of Andrew Johntson If he
submits to such humiliation.

About Marrying.

Statesmen. political economists aud di-
vines reckon marriage an important insti-
tuition. High and ancient authority pro-
nounces il honorable. Families are nurse
ries of the state aud church. Men and
women are raised in them. Married life is
Joy aud discipline. Its replete with
stimulus to good action and with motives
of government. 1t Is not good for
man to be alone, or woman either.i Single
blesseduess Is myth. We have some fears
that it will go out of fashion through the
expulsive power of some of the newlfash-
ions springing up. We don't object to the
fashion of fashions, so TO speak, but to the
costliness of them. Expansive icrinoline
involves expansive prices. A bonnet at
thirty dollars, and very incOnsiderable
thing at that. can not be attractive 10 a
prudent young man. And so, on the other
hand. a fast horse and box of cigars are
not the things to begin life with. Expen-
sive habits in the young of either sex are
not. auspicious OF good marriage pros
poets ii.l' i"l'' "'"f l.'''
Without being mercenary, the young
men may be prudent. and financial calcula-
tions suggested by early love thoughts are
not favorable to their speedily maturing.
Too much costliness in the adornmeht Of
the person operates like too much splendor
In ehtreh' edlfiees suggesting ideas of ex-
pensive attendance and associations, and 50
repelling advances that might otherwise be
made and welcomed with mutual advan-
tage Living In cities is costly enough at
the least Prodigahty of expense may be
indulged by the wealthy till they have
speut their resources, taught their children
how to doit. But for the great mass Of
the people, living by honest industry In
professions trades and subordinate posi-
tions the alternative Is presented, TO 'prac-
tice economy, or to experience embafrass-,
ments and I'M relation to marriage, TO
proceed with caution, or TO encounter the
risk OF unhappiness. We fear that the
caution, suggested by the causes referred
q to, prevent many FROM "prospering, anu

President LNCoLNs DEATH PREDICT
ED BY A BosToN AsTRoLoGER. - In the
N. y. independent of last week Mrs.
Lydia Maria Child writes letter upon
the death of President Lincoln, in which
she mentions the following curious cir
Cumstance:
With regard TO the violent manner of
his death, have you noticed that it was
singuarly limited at by an astrological
prediction months before it happened ?
A modern believer in astrology' who
signs himself Thomas Lister calCu-
lated the horoscope OF Abraham Lin
coin, and published it in u newspaper,
September 20, 1864
1t was therein stated that the PreSi.
dent was BON under Jupiter, 4 planet
whose Influence usually made men for
tunate in their undertakings. 1t pre-
diCted that he would BE- re elected in
November, because, aStrologically speak
ing, his ruling planet will then be
tramSiting over his ascendant in his own
house" He goes on to say " The trans
it Of the evil planet, Mars in opposition
with his ascendant, plainly shows that
the struggle will continue till April,
1865, when the foes of the Union will
be compelled to lay down their arms
In December 1864, and in January, 1865,
some deep, base plot will be got up
against the President, shown by the
transit Of Mars; and the aspect Of the
planet shows danger by pistol shot, or
some internal machine. During these
months more than ordinary caution and
watch fulnesS will be necessary. After
February that evil transit will have
passed away. We could increase our
remarks concerning the personal dan
gers Of the President, but believe for
bearance in this case to be a virtue"
