A CARIcATURE NOT YET PUBLIsHED,--
The following is caricature which we
have not seen in Harper: a- 2.
Scene Firsr-Stanton in the War Office,
has just received notice from the Presi-
dent of leave to 90. The Secretary, with
eyes aglare, nostrils desteDded, fists clench-
ed and advanced in pugiistic attitude, his
whole person indicative of fight, excaims {:
Il will not go, by thunder Illfght first"
Scene Second-Stanton making toward
the door Of the War Office, his hair dishev-
eled. eyes protruding, his arms extending
as if to break a fall, his person indicating
that he is in the act of tumb!ing down,
while endeavoriug to find egress from the
office, while Andy, standing in the door of
the w Wbite-house, reaches out long leg,
well7booted, the foot of which sets strong
against the Secretary's posterior person,
with an inscription upon the soul of the
boot of the word "Grant," the woe-begone
Secretary exclaiming as he retreats;
Il yield to superior force.'

A NEW LOVE TEST.

The English papers tells of sentimen,
tai individual named Stanhope, who, hav-
ing become possessed with the notion that
bis wife was not so fond of him as she
should be, resolved TO put her love. to the
test. This he did by hanging himself in
cfiigy in tue attic, ahd concealing hlmselt
where he could watch the effect of the
spectacle. Here is the sequel: Az, +. p
After awhile, his daughter came up aft
er skipping rope, and caught a glimpse
of the suspended figure. She ran down
the stairs, screaming ''Oh mother, mother!
pappy hung himself" "Now for it,
thought Felix, in ambuscade, eve shall
have touching scene presently" "Hung
himself" he heard Mrs. Stanhope repeat
as she walked leisurely up stairs, che hasn't
got pluck enough for such a thing, or be
would have done it long ago. Well,
believe he has done it, however," she said
as she came in view of Felix's representa-
tive. "Moll Ito the little GIRL I think he
ought 10 be cut down. You had better
90 into the kitchen and get a knife, my
dear; but don't 90 down too fast or you
might fall and hurt yourself Stay, l for
got. There's no knife in the kitchen SHARP
enough. You can 90 round to Mr.. Holmes
the shoemaker hes only four streets Off
tell him to whet it before he sends it. And
Molly, when you are in the neighborhood
you can stop at Aunt Sukey's and ask
how the baby is. And, Molly, you car
stop at the grocer's shop as you come back
and get pound of sugar" ....
Poor F elk !'sighed Mrs. Stanhope
when her daughter had departed, II hope
we shall get him down before the vita
sparks extinct, for these buryings are very
troublesome, and cost money. He want
ed to put an end to himself, too and
think / ought to let him have bis own way
for once in. bis life; he used to say that
was always crossing him. Iwish he hadn't
spoiled that new clothes line : an old rope
might have answered bis purpose" Here
a voice, which sounded like that of the
supposed suicide, broke in upon Mrs, Stan
hopes soliloquv with You confounded Jez
abel, I'll be the death of youp'' Mrs Stan
hope, thinking this must of course be {
ghostiy exclamation, uttered wild scream
and attempted to escape down the narrow
staircase. Felix, starting from his place
of concealment, gave chase. Mrs. Stan
hope stumbled midway on the flight o
stairs, and Mr.. Stanhope having just reach
ed Ter, and made grasp at her dishevelet
hair as it streamed backward, the amiablt
partners were precipitated to the bottom
together; both were badly bruised.

- RELATION OF THE SEXES.

la Ia ff.s
|, Il may be laid down asa general rnle
amusemehts which separate the sexes are
,dangerods. II would not press the truth
,tooinarrowly and literally but su uundoubt--
edly it is a general truth that, where wo-
men seek their amusements, in one way
by themselves, :here is in both ways 4
tendencyto degeneration and temptation.
God meant that man and woman should
live together, work together, and, in all
the functions of life civil, social, religious
artistic, and intellectual cooperate with
each other; and their mutual relations are
harmonizing and balancing, and nowhere
else more than in the seeking and prose,
cution ofamlsements. ! believe that
boys and girls should 60 to school to-
gether. As they sit together in the house
hold, SO think they should sit together
in our temples of learning. Colleges
should not be for all men. or for all wo-
men, but the same buildings and the same
professors should be provided for both in
common. And as it is in everything else,
so It should be in amdsements. There is
much greater liability to temptation and
immortality where amusement is sought in
the isolation or separation of the sexes.
Therefore, all exhibitions of pictures
and stutus, all provisions 70 public recre-
alton all institutions for public amuse-
ments, should be such as to enable the
people to 60 in groups and families.
| do not think amusements can be good
generally in a con- munity in which man
is ashamed TO take his whole faurily to
them. Ifthere Is anything you would not
like your wife and children to participate
In with you, the presumption is that it is
wrong; and if there is anything you wo'd
like them to participate in with you, the
presumption is that it is right. And this
might be made a rule of judgment tar
more widely than it now isl. "

3 The India Famine. =

The terrible famine in India has now
lasted ayear, and the end is not yet. One
million five hundred thousand persons
have died from starvation and diseases Incl
dent to a want of food, and twenty millions
of men; women ard children have been in
greater or less degree affected ty the Wis
itation. In the Province of Orissa one
fourth of the inhabitants have been swept
away. Starving .wretches have turned
cannibals and eaten their own children. A
missionary records a case of mother and
son who were found devouring a dead
child. = A Hindoo is mentioned who, hav-
ing found the body of an infant in the river,
cooked and ate it. Over two millions oI
dollars were expended last year for the re-
lief of the sufferers, and much larger sum
will be required to meet the demands OF
the present year.

FISHES TRAVELLING ON LAND DIR
Hancock in the Geological Journal, gives
a description of fish called the fat-head
hsssar, that travels TO other pools of water
when that in whichjit has resided dries up.
Bose also describes another variety which
is found in South Carolina, and if our mem
ory serves US well, also in Texas, which,
like the fiathead, leaves the dying pools in
search of others These fishes, filled with
water, travel by night, one with lizard
like motion, and the other by leaps. The
South Carolina and Texas varieties are fur.
nished with aamembrane over the mouth
in wbicn they are enabled to carry with
them supply of water to keep their gllls
moist during their travel. These fishes,
guided by some peculiar sense, always
travel in straight line to the nearest wa
ter This they do without the and OF mem
ory, for it has been found that if a tub I'LL
ed with water is sunk in the ground near
one of the pools which they inhabh, they
will when the pool dIies up, move directly
towards the tub. Surely this is wonder
full and merciful provision for the preserva-
ton of those kinds of fishes; for, inhabit-
ing, as thew do, only stagnant pools, and
that, too, in countries subject to long and
periodical dgoughts, their races wonld, but
for this provision, become extinct.

account Of the spirit of piety which breahes through

Who art in Heaven.
Thou showest mercy. therefore for the same

Hallowed be thy name ''..''
Of all our miseries cast up the sum;
Show US thy joys, and let
Thy kingdom come.
We mortal are, an ailer from our birth;
Thou constant art.
Thy will be done on earth.
Thou madst the earth as we'll as planets seven,
Thy name be blessed here
As tits IN heaven.
Nothing we have to use our debts to pay,
Except thou give it US.
Give is this day
Wherewth to clothe us, wherewith to be fed,
For without thee we want
Our daily bread.
We want, but we want no faults, for no day passes
But we do sin
Forgive rs our trespasses.
If we repent our faults, thou ne'er disdainst US,
We pardon them
That trespass against u.s.
Forgive us that is past, a new path tread US;
Direct US always in Thy Faith,
And lead US
Us, thine own people and Thy chosen nation,
Into all truth, but
Not into temptation.
Thou tha. Of all good graces a.e the giver,
Suffer US not to wander,
But deliver
Us from the fierce ass1lts OF the world and the devil
And flesh, so shalt Thou free Us
From all evil.
To these petitions let both church and laymen,
With one consent ofheart and voice, say
Amen.h

and SubOrned.

In the late trial at Washington, of SAN
FORD CoNovER, resulting In his conviction
for perjury, In manufacturing afidayits for
HoAR and SWIVEL duplicating JEFFERSON
DAVIS In the assassination Of Mr.. LINCOLN,
and then Swearing to the g%enuineness OF
the a0ldavits, notwithstanding those wit
nesses subsequently swore thattheir afida-
Wits were false, Judge Advocate Holt was
nut upon the stand for the defence. He
testified that he reduced the testimony OF
HoAR, alias CAMPBELL, and of SWIVEL, to
writing. But he made a statement which
any sagacious lawyer Of reputable stand
ing will regard as very singular. lie said.
that he asked the witnesses no questions as
10 their previous lives, having had nc
ground to suspect their truthfulness.
The st. Louis Republican holds. very le-
ultimately, that It was his business to ''sus-
peet" them in such an affair. His solemn
obligation was to subject them to the most
searching investigation as to their antece-
dents, their associations. character, every
thing, affecting their c%redibility. To ac-
cept without such examination the testi-
mony of witnesses intended TO swear away
the life of an innocent mar Is TO be access
sorry to murder. Judge Holt, in his ordi-
nary practice, would not suffer witnesses
in a suit for chicken stealing to escape his
searching examination, and the fact that
he a~cted>with such culpable %looseness and
negligence In a matter involving the life OF
JEFFERSON DAVIS gives rise to the unpleas-
ant suspicion that he had engaged IN
''making out n case and was indifferent
rs to what sort of tools he employed. II
seems that he did employ consummatc
~scoundrels. 1t appears that he did pay
gold to CoNovER to facilitate him in pro-
curing witnesses.
HoLr, himself on the stand, swore that
he had those trained witnesses before him
and reduced their testimony to writing. II
is almost impossible not to believe that lie
had suspicious as to the credibility ofthese
witnesses. lie is not an inexperienced man.
lie has passed much Of his life In courts,
lie has had hundreds of witnesses before
him, and he knows rs well as any other
advocate that peIjured witnesses are no UNI
common thing. He has studied human
nature, and he could not but have known
by instinct that CoNovsR, his agent, and
the recipient of his gold and purveyor OF
testimony, was a villain. 1t win be next
to impossible for him to cxculpate himself
from the suspicion that he was a willing
party to the basest scheme to blast the
name and take the life of Il mar innocent
of the crime charged, that disgraces the
annals Of criminal jurisprudence in Amer
lea.
