The Ne,E York Eleetlon.

In the history OF our politics there
has been no more desperate attempt
than that which the Democrats of New
YorkaFe now making with the aid Of
an administration which was put into
power in spite, of the Democrats to
carry the State of New York. The oc-
tober election stunned the alliance, but
did not kill 1t; and it has revived with
equal strength and with a, determine
ton that only the question Of life or
death could inspire, to turn back the
tide Of defeat, and to recover in New
York something of what it has lost in
Pennsyl lvania, Ohio, Indiana and Iowa!
Out of New York, 1t has no hope; and
outof the city and, counties along the
river the portion ofthe State thatsym-
pathized with treason and opposed the
war, it has no hope in New York. In
the region where It's strength isSgreat-
est, it labors with unflagging zeal, and
assisted lbyta every element of cor
ruptiony and fraud.i OF these ele-
ments the chiefis illegal naturalization,
which, alwaysa main support Of the
demo ocratic party, has in this case been
carried to an unprecedented extent.-
The division in the democratic ranks
has been forcibly closed, and the Ien-
tire iniqnity of the organization, the
corruptfons of Tammany, the rascali-
ties OF Mozart, the. .fraudsYand bargain
ings of the, outside factions. have been

Western v. Eastern RadIealism.


50 western VI. Eastern RRdIeAlism.
The RadicalismEof New England is
the constant theme Of abuse by that
party whose whole history has been a
record Of attempting TO tear down eve
1ything but slavery. To leave stNew
England out in the cold" Is the famous
remedy always at hand in the Demo-
cratic pharmacopoela. Yet notin, Con-
gress, nor among the people, has the
radicalism of New England at all
equalled that of those Western States
that were lately the stronghold of de-
mocracy, Although some of the more
radical men in Congress, and some of
the most conspicuous of them, are from
New England, yet the average vote of
the western Republicans is more radi-
among the masses, the intensity
Of Western feeling manifests IL
self in ways that are unknovyn
to the mora staid and sober denfzens or
the East. In the recent Conventions, in
the mass meetings, and the speeches
and the professions, in all the modes In
which overhowing public sentiment
seeks expression, the Western maiii-
testahons are beyond the Eastern, and
In the demand for ample security
against future revolt, the Western ioeo.
pie are not behind the Eastern In any
thing but negro suffrage. And wliie
the radtealiSm of New England Is conn
parattvely stationary, that of the West
ts going ahead with true Western rap
tdity, developing as everything else
develops there. So that IL New Eng

to enforce it. Whatever language the EN-
peror may have used in 1852, the people of
America may be sure that he can have no
intention of sustaining an Austrian Prince
in Mexico by French bayouets against the
wish of the Mexicans, at'the risk of serious
embodiment with the United States, and, it
may be added, in spite of the constant muir
murs OF bis own subjects. Every probability
indicates that he will peaeeably withdraw,
sooner or later. Either the Government of
the Emperor Maximilian will prove so vel
come 10 the Mexicans as to need no foreign
support, or else it will demand an amount
OF support which the Emperor will be unable
to give In either case the French cannot
i4il to withdraw, and it is the interest of the
United States to suffer the difficulty to be
thus solved by natural means The only
course which would tend to prevent this
natural solution would be the adoption of a
bullying tone on the part of the United
States, which would rouse the sensitiveness
OF French honor. The Emperor could not
consent to retire from Mexico under threat.
nor, if he were disposed to do so, would the
French people allow it. 1t is, therefore,
essential to American interests, and 10 the
interests of the world, that American states
men should abstain at the present time from
inconsiderate expressions of feeling on this
subject. 1t would be worse than folly to
expend blood and treasure in the pursuit of
an object which may be equally obtained by
tsir words and conciliation. European in
reference in the affairs Of America is impos-
't6le IL The Gerry nature IF things, and if the
Americans will but quiet for the while not

SWISS LAUNDREssEs.

Theyare such impo. iant and much. desired
-personages that they must be engaged some
time before they are wanted; you must also
bespeak the fountain near which you reside,
by mailing on it q piece of paper, on which
is written that, on certain day named,
Madame So-and-so requires the great stone
trough into which the water runs, for her
lessye, and then no one ON that day dare
put finger in it without your leave.
The whole business of the wash lasts four
days. On the first day the clothes are stepped
in cold water only. On the second day they
are all put together in an immense tub, over
which is laid strong linen sheet. On this
a great quantity of wood ashes is placed, and
then boiling water is poured on them till the
linen is covered with the lye. Then they
are allowed to lie an hour, when the liquor
is run off through tap; then more boiling
water is allowed to filter through the ashes,
and this process is repeated till evening
Ihe third day the linen is taken out OF the
lyc, and well washed with hot water and
soap; and the fourth it is removed TO the
fountains to be rubbed and beaten on boards,
rinsed and blued When the linen comes
out of the lye, any one unaccustomed TO this
mode of washing, would be sure to think it
irretrievably ruined, so yellow is it; and it
is not till it has been well thumred and
rinsed in the fountain that it regalns its color
and becomes beautifully white
These washerwomen are peculiar and
distinctive race. They are the greatest gos-
sips, the loudest takers, the biggest eaters,
and sometimes drinkers, Of any in the can
ton. They are all ugly, old and bent, with
lean hands, wizened faces, and thick limbs.
All wear immense hats, with knob at the
top, and their old petticoats and jackets look
as if they had been buried hundreds Of years
and then dug up again. The three or four
days that, twice in the year. they are on a
visit to your house, your servants have quite
enough work to do in cooking variety Of
dishes TO suit their fastidious appetites, foI
they have diet peculiar to their body; ana
if you don't oblige them in this respect, you
are left in the lurch, and your linen must go
unwashed.
After all is dried, there is ironing for sew
eral days, during which every female in the
house is pressed into service, as well as two
or three laundresses, and then, when all is
aired, meuded and put away, there is quiet
in the house for five months and more; aud
am not sure, it we had but the same inn
mense supply of linen, we should not find it
better plan, both as regards the bleaching
Of the Clothes and the comfort of our house
holds, than our everlasting unsatisfactory,
Notwithstanding weekly washes. All my
life l shall think OF those weird-looking
women Cabling and bawling away at the
fountain, and am convinced that, could
return to Switzerland two hundred years
hence, the race would be unchanged, and
that one of the first things my eyes rested
on would be, to all appearances, the same
crooked, wizened hags standing in the mud
round the fountain. Village Life in stoitser-

A RECRUIT FROM THE GRAvE.-The war
has produced many strange stories, but few
more singular than the following one, related
by Colonel Ellis, late of the First Missouri
Cavalry, in St. Louis paper;-~''A few days
after fiercely-contested battle a party Of
soldiers belonging to the First Missouri took
a jaunt over the battlefield and came up to
a spot where the Rebel dead were buried,
In one place the hair OF a mans head was
seen sticking out of the ground like u tuft of
grass, and near by a hand was seen protrud-
ing upwards, which evidently belonged to
the corpse that owned the head of hair
One Of the cavalrymen remarked to his
companions, in spirit Of thoughtless levity,
See, there's dead Reb reaching out for
something let's see what he wants In the
same spirit OF wanton mischief, almost reck-
lessness, the cavalryman took hold of the
mans hand and hauled the body out of the
grave, the loose dirt falling back into the
shallow hole Soon after the man began to
stir and manifest signs OF life, TO the utter
astonishment and horror OF the resurrec
tionists. The man was taken by his rescuers
to their tent and was rubbed down, washed
of, and in few days became as good as
new. He said that in the battle he was
stunned by the passage OF shell which
knocked him senseless. He was picked up
among the dead and buried like the rest
Not a scratch was found on his body. He
said that lie had Joined the Rebel army and
fought the Felerals long and well, but as
this was his second appearance on earth, he
would now join the Federals and fight for
them. He accordingly enlisted with the
First Missouri did good deal OF tough
marching and hard fighting, and last Sep

TEMPERANCE.

TEMPERANCE.
A writer in the Portland Press gives the
following interesting reminiscence of Presi-
dent Lincoln:--
When the Convention was held in Chicago
which nominated Mr.. Lincoln for the Presi-
dency, in 1860, respectable gentleman Of
my acquaintance in Massachusetts, not OF
Mr.. Lincoln's party, was induced to take the
opportunity, in company with several dele
gates and others interested in the objects Of
the Convention, to go out TO Chicago and
spend few days in visiting thai section Of
our country. In very few minutes after
the final balloting was had, and Mr.. Lincoln
was nominated, it happened THAT train OF
cars started upon the Central Railroad, pass
ing through Springfield, the place of Mr.
Lincoln's residence, and Mr. r the gentle.
man alluded to, took passage in tine same
Arriving at Springfield, he put upat public
house, and, lettering upon the front door
steps, had the curiosity to inquire OF the
landlord where Mr. Lincoln lived. Whilst
giving the necessary directions, the landlord
suddenly remarked, "There is Mr.. Lincoln
now, coming down the sidewalk, thai tall,
crooked man, loosely walking this way; if
you wish to see him you will have an oppor-
tunity by putting yourself in his track"
In few moments the object Of his curl
osity reached the point our friend occupied,
who, advancing, ventured to accost him
thus;--''Is this Mr., Lincolngn THAT, sir,
is my name" "My name is r., from Ply
mouth county, Massachusetts, and learning
that you have, to-day, been made tie public
property of the United States, have ven.
tured to introduce myself with a view to a
brief acquaintance, hoping you will pardon
such patriotic curiosity in stranger" Mr..
Lincoln received his salutations with cordi-
ality, told him no apology was necessary for
his introduction, and asked him to accom-
psny him to his residence. He had Just
