He did not consider the Acknowledgement
of the negro intrinsically right, and so
ha did not urge it directly on his own
people, but only on those whom be de-
sired to oppress and through whose in
strumentality, by the adoption Of this
measure, he expected to rule his own
people. The Commercial hides the
Chase strategy behind very thin veil.
One fact strikes us as particularly sig
nifcant as indicative of determination
of the Northern people to restore the
rights and liberties of the Southern
States, viz; that Chase now vindicates
himself on the ground that he was oil

Virtue in Washington.

The good people who live in the
country have no idea of the corruption
and prostitution that exists, or how
rapidly our social system is being I'M
dermined. Virtue is held cheaply; and,
while the conventionalities of society are
respected openly, they are defed in
secret Men and women assume purity
when brought face to face with religious
forms, but they do not wear it
when the doors close behind them,
and shut out the light Of the
world. Society is fearfully corrupt, and
morality is only thin shadow behind
which the scenes of vice and licentious-
ness are boldly shifted. Prostitution is
one of the common evils of the land.
You need not seek for it only in out-of-
the.way streets, behind mysteriously-
darkened windows, or in a Broadway
promenade after nightfall, but also in
palaee.like houses, and in high places

Sodom. Some of the departments
are dens of corruption. A female

and in few months a wild and disso-
Lutte life tells how complete is their ruin.
They sacrifice virtue, and become the
concubines of those who retain them in
power. We warn the pure minded girls
of America that Washington is no place
for them; it is an iniquitous city, made
so by those whom the people have raised
to positions Of trust and honor. A
gentleman, well acquainted behind the
scenes, was recently requested by friend
TO lend his influence toward obtaining q
clerkship in one Of the departments for
a virtuous young girl. Certainly, sir,
he remarked, "but let me enlighten you
i in regard to the qualifications necessary
to command success. The young lady
must possess sensual charms, and, pos
sessing them, must have no false notions
about offering them for sale. Shocking
as this declaration may appear, il
is strictly true. A female clerksbip at
Washington, 10 many instances, is but q

R@. The Northern Republican and
Radical party is getting quite in
tangled condition. Individual members
are looking around in the midst of null
titude of bewldered and bewildering
counsels. Principles are diverse, and
all plans of action conflicting and inhar.
monious. The principle to which they
have committed themselves, that of con-
trolling the country through the hitherto
potent cry of justice and equality to the
negro, has accomplished its mission, and
is getting unpopular and stale, and the
only remaining plank, that of paying the
bonds in gold, is equally dangerous and
destructive to them in a popular sense
They dare not rest their case longer on
either ground, and they have no remain
ing rallying cry capable of quickening
the popular pulse in their favor. With
cut a great and valuable measure to ad-
vocate, and with the weight of their
blunders, waste and maladministration
on their shoulders, they are now looking
10 men for help. They early begin the
Presidential canvass. And in this they
are divided chiefly between Grant and
Chase, and can never harmonize on
either. The bondholders distrust Grant
and Chase has the weight of the bonds OF
his shoulders. The New York Tribuni

Fsarful EncOunter with Bear.

On Tuesday morning, as young man
named Vance, son of Mr.. John Vance, Of
Bear Creek, was going up the canon, he
came across a grizzly bear, Upon ap
preaching within a few yards he fired,
when the bear fell. Not being well ac-
uuainted with the nature of bears, young
Vance advanced for the purpose of dis
patching him, but the bear quietly await
ing his approach, arose on his hind legs,
and struck the gun from his hands at the
moment he was about to fire. The bear
Immediately gave another blow, and tore
open the flesh above Vanoe's right eye,
cutting two severe gashes, and tearing
the fesh from the bone. One nail Of the
bear at the same time caught the nasal
bone at It's root, and tore portion Of it
away, and passing along, tore out the
left eye The bear then commenced
hugging, at the same time chewing and
lacerating him in fearful manner. he
dislocated his wrist, broke his fore arm,
and tore the flesh from both hands
He also bit his left knee severely, and
cut frightlul cash across the heshy por-
