Grant-Entertaining Items of srsonal
characteristics.

The following gossip about Grant
contains more body than the average
paragraphs about the General. 1t is
from the correspondence Of the Bos.
ton Journal: HE has kept very quiet
since he has been in New York. He
dislikes parade aud attention. He
says he never gets into carriage on
great occasions, when crowds sur
round him and shout his name, but
what, mingling with the pageant, are
the groans of the wounded, the sick
boys in the hospital, and the dead
and dying on the battlefield. He
has two or three cozy hooks in New
York, into which he retires with a
few friends to enjoy a confidential
chat. He is very peculiar in his hab.
it's. 1t is said he has not drank a
glass of spirits since he was appointed
Lieutenant General. He is breaking
himself OH inordinate use of cigars,
sensible that IN the inaction of peace.
the custom hurts his health. No,
body can get any thing out ofhim by
asking questions. He seldom answers
any put to him; but, if left to himself
le, will talk freely, clearly and fully
on public matters. Since he has
been in New York.on this visit he has
spent hours in friendly conversation.
To all matters touching the Presi-
dency he makes but one reply. He
hopes he never shall leave the army.
That, when his active service is over
he shall still be connected with the
corps he loves SO well. He is not
without his solicitude in regard to
public events. He considers matters
more critical than before the surren-
der of Lee. Some one said to him:
General Grant, we do not know
what is before us; but long as you are
at the head of the army the coun-
try feels safe, for it has undiminished
confidence in you. Your death or
removal from the army would not
only be national calamity, but
would so shake the national conf>
dence as to well-nigh produce a rows
olution.' General Grant said nothing,
but his eyes moistened with tears
a degree of emotion he seldom exhib.
it's"

ENGLISH FRANCHIsE.-The follows
ing is brief synopsis of the main pro
visions of the franchise bill as it pass
ed the House of Commons:
1t gives vote to every male citi>
zen VINO personally pays his rate, and
it makes any other than personal
payment illegal It enfranchises ev-
cry male lodger Of full age who has
occupied one year any portion of a
house whose yearly value, unfurnish-
ed, is 912. 1t enfranchises every
male householder in counties who pay
912 annually as rent. II enfranchis-
es the graduates of London Univers
ity, and gives that institution one
member; it enfranchises the full and
aged residents of Oxford and Cams
bridge Universities who will vote in
the borough elections Of those places
1t provides for the notification to all
whose rates are due; that carrying
voters to the polls shall not be legal
in the boroughs, with the exception
of five large ones that members app
pointed to office need not return to
their constituents for reelection
The bill protects all existing franchis-
es. The redistribution part of it dis
poses of forty>fve seats, which were
obtained by DISTINGUISHING four
borougbs, convicted Of gross frauds,
and taking one member from all bor-
oughs, of less than 10000 population.
Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester
and Leeds, are each to have three
members. The boroughs of Hartle-
pool, Middlesborough, Darlington,
Dewsbury, Staleybridge, Wednes-
bury, Gravesend and Stocton are to
have now, for the first time, one
apiece. Stafford and Merthys Tydoil
are to have two instead Of one. Sew
erl suburbs of London are combined
under "Chelesa" and return a menu
Der; and a new borough, Hackney"
is to be separated from the Tower
Hamlets. The University of London
is to have member. Twenty-Five
members are disputed among the

nGa-A few days since Jonah Dibble.

years through the Baraboo valley. az
a supplemented honest bcggar, pass
ed away. He was supposed to be
nearly hundred years old. and if
so, was probably the Oldest person
in this county. Feeble minded as he
was, his moral and religious faculties
were considerably strong. lie could
talk and pray in religious meetings
to the cdifcation of the people Of

said to be we'll developed.
His eldest brother Nathan was o
mathematical genius, and enjoyed a
national reputation as the author OF
Daboll's Arithmetic, a standard work
for schools in many parts Of the
cruntry for generations. Although
a man of feeble intellectual powers
in most respects, it is said that there
was no problem in the higher math-
ematics which he was unable to solve
He was indeed a prodigy in that
science. The reason why he wrote

A Woman Tries to Blow Herself Up with
Cannon Ball.
J. Z. MUNGER,
A. ]. CRAIG.
Committee.

One of the most whimsical and un-
heard ofmeans Of "shuffiing off this
mortal coil, occurred in this city on
Wednesday. A woman living in the
lower part OF the city, named Meyer,
who, from ill-treatment by her hus-
band had become disgusted with life,
attempted to make away with her
self in the following unique mans
ncr: She took six pound cannon
ball, which her husband had brought
from Vicksburg as relic, and
which had been lying on the man
tle-piece for years, and having a rath.
er indistinct conception Of the terri
bic effects of the projectile and the
manner of using it, at length hit upon
an idea. She went to Edwards gro>
Gerry and purchased fifty cent worth
of powder, returned home and pro,
curing breakfast plate she placed it
on the floor She then poured the
gunpowder upon the plate, and put
the cannon ball on the top ofthe pow>
der. Having thus got her artillery
into position and everything in readi
ness, she then sat down over the
loaded plate, and with burning
taper III one hand fired the powder.
The effect of the explosion may be
imagined. The exploding powder
burned and blackened the women's
lower extremities, while the ball which
she vainly expected would end her
miseries, did not stir from its
position. The unfortunate victim OF
this insane attempt at self,des truc-
ton is lying in . precarious condi-
ton from the effect of her fooolhardy
attempt upon her own life.

A Boston paper gives the following
account of the recent visit of Mr.. Da-
Wis to Vermont:
''Jeff. Davis visited Stanstead last
week, and was the guest Of NJ. T. Lee
Terrill. Frederick Terill, Esq. brought
him from Sherbroke there, in q very
quiet manner, on Wednesday last
professedly to see the country and to
consult in regard to an investment in
the gold mires of Hatley. On Thurs
day, as we learn from The NeDport
(VD ErpreSs, Mr.. Terrill, in his best
turnout, took jeff. about the village
to ride, when several incidents occur
red not altogether pleasing, We
should imagine, TO either the host or
his guest. Not only boys but men
booted at him in the street, and greet
ed him with those familiar words.
We'll hang jeff Davis to a sour ap-
pie tree" He was frequently asked
where he had left his .petticoats, and
various like remarks more suggestive
than pleasing everywhere fell upon
his ear One lady, stung by the rec
objection of the suffering and death
of near relative at AndersonviIle,
gave utterance to her feelings by
hurting stone at him. Permission
was asked that jeff. might ride about
the grounds of Mr.. Carlos Pierce. and
take look at his noted herds. but
the request was emphaticalIy denied
by Mr.. Henry Pierce, in charge of
the premises, who declared, in un-
mistakable language, that in no
event could jeff. Davis be admitted
to those grouds."
