KENruCKy In allusion to the success OF
the Democratic ticket in Kentucky, by from
ten to twenty thousand. the N. York Herald
says: This is but the foreshadowing Of the
course of political events elsewhere. The
fail campaigns everywhere will all reveal the
fact that the disgust Of lbe, people with the
course Of ihe Radical faction will override
and overshadow all other issues. The peo-
pie were deceived last year by the pro
fessions Of the Republicans of supporting
President Johnson's restoration policy
They now see what there is in their prom
ses, and do not propose to give them an
opportunity to practice this deception upon
them again. Hence we,fnd the people in
Kenuttky not only rpuda'ing the radicals,
but defeating all who have even the appear
ance Of sy'nrathizing with them.

Purity OF CHARACTER. = Henry Ward
Beecher draws the following beautiful paral-
eIs: r. ,
Over the beauty of the plum and apricot
there grows bloom and beauty more exqni-
site than the iruit Itself a soft delicate flush
that overspreads its blusbiug cheek. Now
if you strike your hand over that. and il is
once gone i is go' e forever, for it never
grows but once. The flower that hangs in
the morning, impearled with dew arrayed
with jewels--once shake il, so that the heads
roll off, and you may sprinkle water over it
as you please, yet it can never he made
gain what it was when the dew fell slightly
upon it from heaven! On frosty morning
you may see the panes Of glass covered with
landscapes, mountains, lakes and trees, blend.
ed in a beaut ful fantastic picture. Now
lay your hand upon the glass, and b. the
scratch OF your finger, or by the warmth of
the palm, vi the delicate iracery will be OBJ
lit'raled. SO there is in youth a beauty and
purity Of character, which, when once touch
ed and defled, can never be restored; fringe
more delicate than frostwoIk. and which,
when torn and broken, will never be 70 EN-
brnidered. A man who had spotted aud
soiled bis garments in youth, though he may
seek to make them white again, can never
wholly do il, even if he was TO wash them
with his tears. When a young man leaves
his father's house. with the blessing of his
mothers tears s-still wet upon his forehead,
if he once loses that early purity OF character,
il is loss that he can never make whole
again. Such is tho consequence of crime.
lis effects cannot be eradicated; it can only
be forgiven. t- te.srrteas
