CAHDOR IN POLITICS,
Editor Republican

Editor Republican
claim to belong to that class of men
few in number, perhaps, and impractical
withal-who hold that candor Of expression
and honesty of purpose, even in politics is
the better policy, however positively and
pointedly such may seem for the time to con-
flict with existing emergency and present
chances of success and hold, too, that
the man who is essentially dishonest in
politics, and is ready to traffic in the peo-
ple's rights and liberties for the advance
ment of his own selfish purposes and
ACKNOWLEDGMENT is not safely to be
trusted in any particular, much less as
a law.maker, aud the shaper of public
ends. The man of mere policy in politi-
cal matters will, in my humble judgment,
be found to be weak upon all kindred points
of morality and truth, and an unsafe citizen
in all the relations of life-ready to barter
the public welfare whenever convenient
season, or the least pretext or excuse, may
arise in his own sordid and selfish desires.
No honest and intelligent man viii assume
to DENY that Just such characters as here
alluded to are the sole authors of the late
rebellion and war, and who, thank God
will alone be held accountable-if not in
this world, In that which is TO come-for al
the manifold and increased and increas
ing miseries which have befallen the fail
and lovely Southern land of America under
the blighting bane of treason and its conse
duent misrule. What the Radical or true
Union party of Louisi ana, and Of the whole
South, has nov TO especially guard against
is the same specious poison of demagog'
ism aad personal hypocrisy which has here
tofore hung like an incubus Of mildew oyei
the prosperity and happiness of the land
No man who is not clearly actuated by mo
tiyes of duty and right, regardless of sur
rounding obstacles and all considerations o

Mary Doyle was arrested on Monday night,
at house on yillere street, charged with
striking and causing the death of Jane
Brown, colored woman, nearly eighty

Street. Mary states that she has room at
Mrs. Browns house, and sometimes stays
there at night, always leaving her baggage
in this apartment. That on reaching the
house Monday night she found her trunk
broken open, and at once informed Mrs. ID.

PAYING HER Hush MosEY.-One
day we have it announced that Mrs. Lin
coin says she has in her possession the
means with which to crush the Radical
party. That is no doubt true, but the
people are not saving her any labor in
that direction.
Immediately following this announce
ment comes another. Mrs. Lincoln has
consented to the proposition to raise q
subscription for her benefit, and that the
work has already commenced by opening
subscription books at Brady's in New
York, and addressing circulars to prom
inent politicians. 1t is evident they have
found it necessary to pay her hush mon
ey. She has used the power which she
holds over the party of"great moral IDEAS
to her pecuniary benefit, as she intended
to do when the exposure was first COM
menced. She has managed her cards
well, if not creditably. The partisans,
whose rascalities she holds in the palm
of her hand, are at the confessional.
The colored clergy in the country are
to be appealed to TO move in this matter,
in the way of collections, among the con-
gregations. Meantime the New York core
respondent of the Springfield Republicans,
Radical, viciously suggests that the duty
of purchasing her goods be made plank
in the platform of the Radical party
Detroit Free Press.

A LUCKY MINER.-Herrick Robards
came to California in 1853. For two
years after his arrival he served as hotel
waiter, porter and hostIer in San Francis
CO. In March, 1856, he came to the
mines and first worked for wages. at Rat
tIesnake Bar From 1853 to 1861 he
gradually worked his way up the North
Fork Of the American until he finally
located short distance below Kentucky
Bar, where he has latterly met with no
opposition, and has held bed and banks Of,
the stream for miles, ad hJitum. Never
much ahead, seldom comfortable and fre-
quently sorely pressed and harrassed,
Robard's California experience has been
far from pleasant But cit is long lane
that has no turning" and his lane turned
on Friday last. On that day he struck q
fissure in an old bank claim that reward.
ed him in few hours for the priyations
and sacrifices Of years.
This assure in the bed rock was about
three feet wide at the top, little over
four feet deep, terminated in rocky bluff
about fifteen feet from where it was first
struck, and yielded in about thirty-six
hours digging and washing little over
8I3 ounces of gold! Being coarse, wash.
ed river gold, from neighborhood that
has always been famous for good dust,
this lot is estimated to be worth S19 so
per ounce, which would give Ro5ards
sl5,S53 so for three days labor. He
took his dust TO San Francisco on Tues
t5ay, determined, as he expressed it, to
" have every d-n dollar that it would
fetch with fair allowance to Uncle Sam
fur the 'kinin' Nv it STARS and Stripes.

IT is said that the tusks of at least one
hundred mammoths, or about 10000
pounds of ivory, are bartered for every
year in New Siberia. Notwithstanding
the large amount carried away, the sup.
ply does not seem to diminish. These
remains are scattered along the valleys and
near the mouths of great rivers; and in
q number of instances the mammoth en-
tire has been discovered, with its skin
protected by double covering of hair,
and wool. and its flesh in such a state of
preservation as to afford food for dogs and
wild beasts. Whatever the cause of the
Siberian mammoth's death, it is certain
they were suddenly enveloped in ice,
which has not been disturbed since they
were first entombed.

GRIM. CoN.-The San Francisco Cali
of August 2Sth has the following in ref
erence to the subject matter of recent
dispatch:
Some time ago well-known lawyer,
whose Office is on Washington street, was
applied to by a citizen who had lost conf
dence in his wife's chastity, to procure q
divorce for him. He began tho suit, but
afterward told tho husband that he had
become satisfied that his suspicious were
groundless, and the suit ought to be dis
missed. Through the lawyers efforts a
reconciliation was effected, and the coup
ell lived together again. But after q
short time the husband again grew jeal-
GUS and suspected that his wife was play
ing him false, He accordingly watched
her on several occasions, and found that
she was in the habit of visiting the law
yer's Office. Last night she visited the
lawyers Office again, and the husband,
getting several friends to accompany him,
went there and demanded entrance, and
upon it being refused him, he burst open
the door, and was confronted by the gen.
tleman of legal attainments with drawn
pistol the husband drew pistol; there
was tableau, and then the limb of the
law skedaddled through back door. The
husband next proceeded to pull bis wife
out of closet in which she had taker
refuge. Then there was another tableau
to the music Of screams and cries, oathl
and threats. Another divorce suit vii
soon be commenced.

Somebody tells the following joke on
that irrepressible genius. George Francis
Train: AS an illustration Of Mr.. Train'a
intense patriotism, We may relate that ho
on one occasion, sent his wife on ninety
days voyage from Australia to New York,
that their coming child might be born on
American soil, as would become possible
future President of the United States. -
The journey was most troublesome one,
and the lady came very near being ship
wrecked, but at last reached this country
in safety. The child was born and It scda

The friends of the slate lamented," :"
those who persist in according to him
more patriotism and virtue than ever
Washington possessed, have recently dis
covered by an official statement of the
worldly affairs of the great martyr at
the time of his "taking off," that he was
in the blissful possession of government
bonds to the amount of about eighty hous.
and dollars and they point to the fact
as still another evidence of his great loyal
ty. When we take into consideration the
fact that the bonds in question are subject
to no taxation whatever, and that the
LABoRINd community are taxed exorbi-
antly to pay an interest in gold equal to
NINE per cent on the loyal Lincoln's
bonds, it becomes a question with US as to
who Is the loyal mamie who boasts of
and measures his loyalty by the amount
of his bonds or he who submits quietly to
inordinate taxation that the government
may be enabled to pay such loyal leeches
an interest in gold. We doubt whether
Mr.. Lincoln would have died possessed OF
government bonds to the amount of one
dollar had they been subject, like other
property, to taxation. The true patriot
stops not to count the cost of his patriot
ism, but freely gives his accumulated
wealth, however great or small, for the de.
fence, of his country. How many such
patriots can we boast Of in the late con.
fict? The TRUEY Loyal men were
those who stood by tho Constitution, every
article of which was repudiated by oul
radical rulers, and outside of which Mr.
Stevens boasts of acting, and the day il
not far distant when the people, who have
been duped and misled, will SO declare
from one end of the continent to the
other.-Suadqy Mercury.
