that was almost rigid. Il am not going
to be married. I have been Tilted.

She glanced at Loisette, then at me, and
understood it all.

The four unfortunate Misses Morgan,
who were burned to death by the dread
tul accident on the railroad, near Cincin-
natl, on Thursday morning last, were
ladies OF education, refinement, goodness
and respectfully, and, as we have already
stated daughters OF the late Benjamin
Morgan formerly OF the firm OF Price Il
Morgan, merchants III Philadelphia, and
afterwards President OF the Bank OF
Louisiana. ana interested in large sugar
estates. At the time Price < Morgan
dissolved partnership they each possessed
a handsome fortune, and they mutually
agreed IN case OF pecuniary misfortune or
loss beialing either OF them, the other,
Ii still IN good circumstances, wd> to share
his property with the unfortunate one
Many years afterwara Mir Chandler
Price failed in Philadelphia, and Dir
benjamin Morgan transferred to ili,n II
fine row of buildings on Teiloupitoulas
Street New Orleans. Some years after,
and about She time OF }Ir. Morgan deaf h
the latter became much embarrassed by
endorsements Tor MS scqu;.intances.
-5lr. Price having IN the mean time ac-
cumulated another large for,une after
the death OF his old partner, reconveyed
the same valuable property on Tchoupi-
toulas Street to llr. Morgan children
This is one of the few instances, in this
life, of undying friendship, and quite as
extraordinary as that all four OF the
daughters should be killed AT one fell
sweep, a thousand miles from home.

POLITICAL RECORD OF THE TRIBUNE
The Chicago Tribune, now approaching
its twenty second year, is recognized as
the leading organ ard exponent of the
great Republican Union party Of the
Northwest. Its circulation exceeds the
combined issues Of the other Chicago
dailies. Since the Republican party was
organized in 1851, the Chicago Tibune
has espoused its principles and defended
its cause through evil as we'll as good re-
port Il was chiefly instrumental in
making known the merits of the great
and good ABRAHAM LINCOLN to the peo-
pie of the other States, thereby securing
his nomination for President. During
the entire period Of the shareholders re-
bellion it advocated the most vigorous
and radical measures for the unconditional
suppression Of that desperately wicked
attempt to destroy free government and
when the Instruction was finally crushed,
the Chicago Tribune insisted O.. the ear
Hest reconstruction and read .nission of
the lnsurgent States, on the basis of
equal and exact justice 10 all men, aud
on the indispensable condition that loyal
men should have an equal voice with
rebels in the administration of public al
fairs, believing that enduring peace and
public tranquility could be obtained on no
lower platform.
The Chicago Tribune, therefore, heart
lily endorses the Reconstruction acts of
Congress, as founded on justice and pub
lie safety, and urges the speedy admis-
sion of the insurgent States TO a partici-
patton in the government of the Union
on those terms.
THE NEXT PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
A most important Presidential election
approaches, when it must be decided
whether the loyal party, which put down
the rebellion and saved the Union, shall
administer the government, or whether
the destinies of the Union shall be allow
ed to pass into the hands Of those who
openly or covertly sought to destroy it,
and who now, with the aid of an apostate
Executive, seek to elevate Treason above
Loyalty, Oligarchy above Liberty, Seces-
sion above Union, and Reputation above
National Faith.

How Mr. LINCOLN IS HoSoRED
ABROAD. One Of the cvidence8 Of the
high honor ana profound reverence with
which the memory Of Mr. Lincoln is held
by he people of France is shown by an
incident which occurred to an American
gentleman, who was paying visit TO
Nustaye DOre. Upon u.hering this gen
sleman into his studio, fore pointed to
Marshail's portrait Of Mr. Lincoln. Il
was fixed upon the center Of the wall, in
the place Of honor, and surrounded by
fiuc works Of art, production Of bore and
other men Of genius, There. . said the
artist, Il have placed this exquisitly en-
grayed portrait OF the greatest man IN
the country, where every one who enters
can see it and do him honor. Another
gentleman, while visiting the silk factor
les at Lyons. was taken into the room by
the director, who showed him this por-
trait, beautifully reproduced in silk, tell
ing his guest: '":'his is the fourth in
stance where we have undertaken the
d;ilicult task OF Wearing portrait in this
costly fabric. The iir5t was Washington;
the second, the llnpcror Napoleon the
third, Alexander, the Emperor Of Russia;
the last, your great Lincoln.

citation of the points of their game by the
President.
After several "oOrkers'' had been given by
the different members of the Mutuais, Coro-
ner Wildey presented to the President the
badge of membership.
The President replied that he was much
pleased to accept the badge and the honor OF
being a member of the Club. Tom Florence
ran and got him pin. He then attached the
badge to the lapel of his coat. He said he
held the game of base ball to be a mora
recreation, and of all recreations he thought
the moral kind ought to be encouraged he
believed in morals. He thought any game
that hadn't a moral connected with it ought
not to be allowed any more than tale in a
newspaper without moral. The game never
attached any disgrace to the members. He
had played the game when young man, and
was always delighted with it. But since he
had left Tennessee, he had had other games to
play, Of which the moral points were not so
prominent He said his little game with Con-
gress might be called baseball match. They
kept giving him balls in the shape of various
bills which it took all of his strength as batter
to knock beyond the range.of the "feder.s"
He handled a favorte bat which he called
"my policy" and with which he had given
"daisy cutters to many a ball of measures
pitched at him by the radicals, which he had
tried his best to keep out in the field, while his
friends made their innings count.
He was now
