Of regret and profound sadness
through the hearts ola large circle
Of friends and acquaintance. How
sad that, after all his wanderings in

fully eventful years, he should re-
turn to his home, the scene Of life's
best page, only to die, when fond
earthly hopes were eliminating, and
q harvest Of success and honor await.

G0ssipping.

OF all the vile, abominablc and
disreputable practices indulged in by |
man or woman, that of gossipping |
and backbiting is the most detcstablc,
especially when practiced by the
fairer portion Of creation; and though |
il is humiliating to make the confess
sion, VIC think there is a little more
Of il done in this, otherwise delight
full, little village, than any place we
ever knew. We have been deeply
mortified on several occasions recent
ly by hearing ladies making dispar-
aging remarks about their neighbors
and friends, with whom they associ-
ate on terms Of equality. They will
meet and kiss them, and appear
ever so glad to see them, and then,
as soon as they are gone, turn round
and make sport Of them. II they
hear a slnnderops report about
neighbor, they can't rest until they
tell il 10 every one they know, add
ing little every time they repeat it,
instead Of trying TO hush Il up or
disprove Il. II a gentleman visits
lady two or three times, to while
away spare hour, the gossips soon
have out a report that they are en-
gagged, and then 60 10 work TO hunt
up something dorogatory TO their
character. A young lady, after
having made every effort, fails TO
enlist the attention of a gentleman
with whom she would like 10 form a
life-partnership, afterwards secs him
paying his dcvotions to some one
else, turns up her pretty little nose
and declares she would not be caught
on the street with such a BOBBY. A
young man courts a lady and "gets
the mitten," and Immediately informs
his comrades that she is high-tcm-
tempered, extravagant, ignorant, and
perhaps not as virtuous as she should
be. One lady has a carriage, and
takes an evening ride occasionally,
and when she passes her less iortun-
ate neighbor, ten TO one you viii
hear the remark that she had better

CONDITIONS PREcEDENT.-Un-
less the Southern States shall be res
torcd TO equality of political rights
In the Union, upon every principle
Of human equity and Justice, they
are not to bo held bound by the acts
which they have performed In the
nature Of conditions precedent. IL
Is no answer to say that the Prcsi-
dent has performed, or Is willing TO
perform, his part Of the understand
ing, and that Congress refuses. The
President, the Congress and the
Courts, are the Government. The
failure Of one department Is the fail
urc of all. The refusal Of Congress
TO admit the Southern States TO rep
resentation Is the failure Of the Gov
crnment TO comply with the condi-
tions upon which the Southern States
held Conventions, Legislatures,
abolished slavery, repudiated the war
debts, and adopted the constitutional
Amendment. Asa legal proposition
we maintain that until the Govern
ment complies with It's part of the
agreement, the Southern States are
not bound by any act they have per
formed, If performed in the nature
of o condition.
