Mrs. Lincoln, if she desires them, much less
to deter Congress from making further aP,
preparation for her support, which we should
he glad to have it do !; but simply IN order
that the people of the nation may not sup
pose that Mrs. Lincoln is in anything like
destitute circumstances. Her income may
not be sufficient to meet all her wants and
necessities, but it is certainly large enough
to maintain her at least as comfortably as
she lived before going to Washington.
The light in which these facts place Mrs
Lincoln. is anything but pleasant ; and
Judging from this display of her temper and
tastes, we can but conclude that the excel
lencies of Mr. Lincoln's character were
reached by his being made " perfect through

The ELECTIoN.-The Democrats have
elected Judge Sherwood in Pennsylvania,
by from 900 to , 900 majority. The Leg
islature is strongly republican. which will
probably secure Republican L. s Senator
in place of Buckalew.
In Ohio. Hayes, the Republican candidate
for Governor, is probably elected by 5000
majority. The Legislature is Democratic by
small majority, and will, of course elect a
Democratic successor to Ben Wade The
Democrats claim that the majority against
the amendment is 100 900.
In Iowa, the Republicans have carried the
State by $4,000 majority. Both branches OF
the Legislature are strongly Republican.

BUTLER HARDLY THINKS He SHALL BE
PREsIDENT.-Somebody has written to BENZ.
F. Butler evidently insinuating that he
would make good candidate for President
whereupon Butler replies as follows
LOWELL, Mass. Sept. 81, 1867.
NV Dear Sir / am much gratifed to find
that my views meet the appreciation of Mr.
- and yourself. They are the matured
opinion of close observation of the wants OF
the country. That they should accord with
the principles of my former democratic asso
ciates is not :. remarkable as they are
democratic as was democracy before it became
more, George T. Curtis, Winthrop, Josiah
Randall, and persons of their opinions, who
never drew a democratic breath. The dem
ocracy must look to the radical republican
party for the resuscitation of its true princi-
Piles as applied to as With US all
true democrats will ultimately be found who
believe in equality of right, equality of pow
er, equality Of taxation under the govern
ment to every man who, by the constitution
has the high position of an American citizen
My hopes or expectations of political prefer
ment have nothing to do with my political
views. I must go forward speaking the
truth IN politics as In other matters. And
the more unpopular, if find them just and
true, the more surely will l declare them
This is not the kind Of stuff presidents have
been made of, and it is more doubtful wheth
er they ever will be made of sterner stuff
Have not answered your question :. whether
i should make candidate for the presi
dency?" will not say with Clay " that
had rather be right than be president be-
cause he was wrong, and not president be
sides; but will say that I would not sacri
fee my Independence of thought and action
to be president ten times over. and that i.

that now degraded place. shall be at the

Mr.. Billiard, who is clergyman we be-
lieve, may possibly rest his argument for
this bill upon Scriptural grounds ; and such
argument cannot be successfully assailed.
But there are abundant reasons drawn from
the practical working of the present laws OF
divorce, to show that every departure from
the Divine law is productive of disorder in
society. From fifteen to thirty divorces are
granted by our courts annually in every
county in the State We are unable to state
what proportion of these are granted TOR
causes other than adultery, but undoubtedly
one-half, or more. Many of them are, In
fact, the result of collision between the par
ties who have found some other s. affinity,
and desire to be separated from the old love
that they may be married to the new Oar
laws are not yet enough anti-mormon to ma Ike
bigamy a crime but the Supreme Court
amiably interposes, and makes legal what
otherwise would he a grave offence. Our
laws should be consistent, and if. as now,
divorces are to be granted for triiing causes,
it should be made good defence to a prose-
cution for bigamy. that the respondent
could MT live tremendously under the first
marriage contract, and could Mt wait for the
action Of the Supreme Court and it would
be but step from this to the paradise.-or
hell as the case may bc--of the free-lovers-
We think Mr. Billiards. bill would be i'm
proved by a provision that in divorces for
adultery, the criminal party shall not be per-
mitted to marry again. We wish it much
better success than apprehend it will
meet.
