Men listen, arrange, compare, and

Man overcomes. Woman subduos.
Man thinks. Woman speaks.
Man is noble. Woman beautiful.
Man was formed to conquer the
whole creation. Woman to approach
that cohqueror.
All things living shall keep their
distance from Man ; it is the privilege
Of Woman alone to be divested of such
fear. Man is never so much lord of all
nature as when he completes all other
triumphs by protecting Woman.

For the Clayton Herald.'D
To Whom it may Concern.


We notice that the DelaqDaream calls
the CLAYTON HERALD "a little feminine
paper" Well, suppose it is? We can
positively say, and tell the truth, thatits
editress IS the only person who controls
a newspaper in the State who has the
moral courage TO expose the damnable
corruption of political parties. She has
done more than sny other editor in the
State would have done, Notwithstanding
one or two have been offered pay to do
the same, while she does it free of charge
and for the moral interest of the people.
Not even the editors of that little woolly-
headed thing in Wilmington, the Daily
Commercial, would ever have dared to do
such a thing, as much as they blow.
Away with such cowards-away with
such towards and negro-idolizers. ALI
praise to the CLAYTON HERALD, and its
honored-its pure-its fearless-its high
minded editress. The person who is
afraid to do publishers duty, should
be kicked out of the State or sunk to the
bottom of some river. Mrs. Editress,
fling out your banner fdefiance-unfurl
every fold, and let it wave in bold relief
in the faces of such miserable carrion
maggots. Tell them to their teeth that
you will do as you please. in spite ofall
their cowardly threats. Why, you may
take a drag-net and pair Of oyster
tongues, and drag and rake hi from
one end 10 the other, and you will not
find a more corrupt gang than these very
fellows. Hoist your flag, with this
motto: "Honor and purity, or death
and eternal forgetfulness." We are to
your aid, if necessary, with an army of
not less than one thousand as good DEM
ocrats as ever stood up. e iaesi ilsi4

Renewal of the War Fever.
NAPOLEON PREPARING FOR A
FIERCE STRUGGLE

The apprehensions of war continue to
be on the increase. All the Bourses IN
Germany are lower on account of them.
If there has been no considerable fall at
the Paris Bourse, 1t is only because the
Rente is almost at war prices already.
Rumors of an alliance between France,
Austria and Italy, are industriously cir
culated, and the Sultan is eagerly cam
vassed to join 1t. Considerable disap-
pointment is felt that he is not coming
to pay a second visit to Paris, and that
there are no hopes OF seeing even his
minister, Fuad Pacha. Temptations are
being held out TO Sweden and Denmark
to join the French league Prussia is
rapidly preparing for the coming storm.
A very important symptom, among ma
ny minor ones, is that the division which
Hesse is bound to furnish to the Prus-
sian army pursuant to the military. alli-
ance, and which was not to have been
organized till October /, is, by recen-
resolution of the Grand Ducal Governt
ment and the Hesse Darmstadt Chamber
to be formed immediately, AS Prussia
is supreme in all matters military
throughout the Southern German Con-
federation as well as in the North, what
is the rule for Hesso must also be the
rule for Bavaria, Wurtemburg, &c. 1t
is most important that people as well
as governments should not shut their
eyes against evidence. The alarmists
are now the greatest friends of peace. 1t
is certain that the French Emperor is
meditating war on grand scale, and it
is equally certain that the nefarious OBJ
ject is an extension of territory, in order
to restore his prestige, grievously dam
aged by the Mexican failure, and to stihe
opposition at the next elections. There
is hope that the good sense of the world
may yet baulk these designs, but safety
lies in constant vigilance and a keen
sense of the impending danger. ~.

ae- A CORRESPONDENT Of the chicaeo

Gs- A correspondent of the Chicago
Republican says of the present attitude
of the Sioux tribes isfhe young men
and the young chiefs land they are the
most infiuentiaD say that there is MOTH
ing for them to do but to fight until the
whites consent to let them alone where
they are, and to keep out of what they
claim as their country. The old men
and all the older chiefs are DESTROYS to
prevent war; indeed they have taken
in some cases, extreme measures to keep
the young men from going out in war
parties. These old men in times past
have felt and know the power. of the
Government, and believe that in the ex-
treme case their people will be extermi-
mated by the whites; but the.experience
of the younger ones has not taught them
this, as since that time they have almost
invariably beaten the troops.' H..

Secretary Stanton.

The removal of Secretary Stanton so
long talked of has at last been accomp-
lished by that renegade, A. Johnson
That the Secretary has served his Coun-
try faithfully during the entire rebellion,
and has stood firm to his principles,
when so many have wavered and forsa-
ken every principle of honor and right
for the sake of the 'loaves and. fishes,"
that miserable unprincipled, would be
tyrant, had to distribute, even his bitter
est enemies admit. How much the
Country owe to Stantons firmness and
patriotism will never be known. His
position since the treachery of Andy has
been most irksome one, and had it not
been for the good of the Country, would
have long ere this been given up. His
removal is s'the last straw that breaks
the camels back" This Accidency's) and
we are confident that when Congress
agains assemblies, Andy will be i'm
peached and removed, as the principal
hindrance to reconstruction and lasting
peace. Had Congress performed their
duty and removed this stumbling block
year ago, peace and prosperity would
now be the portion of the whole land.
A dispatch to the New York Herald
says: a M r
Secretary Stanton, ii is alledged, re-
ceived information of scheme for the
arming of the military organizations in
the late Rebel States with view of ma
king new assault on the Government,
ana that he held on TO the office with the
intention of frustrating the conspiracy.
1t is further said that one of the causes
Of the late rupture between the Presi-
sident and Secretary of War was the re-
fusal of Secretary Stanton to assign to
militia company of Maryland, composed
mainly of returned Rebel officers and
soldiers, battery of eight guns for
which they had applied. The PRECEDENT
is said to have desired him to furnish
the battery, but that Mr., Stanton decIi-
ned"
If Andy johnson is still to have the
control of affairs, God alone can tell
what is in store for us. We tremble for
the future of our country.
