The hopo which the Republicans have
cherished since the election, that they
were beaten on a light vote, and that thou.

is dispclled by the full official returns now

enormous being thousands more than were
ever given even ut Presidential or Con.

A Singular Compliment to Republic an
Instttutions.
The London korDino HERALD saws .nrono.

The London Morning Herald says apropos
ola recent Occurrences:
"a republic has at least this advantage.
that it survives scandalous exposures which
would utterly ruin monarchy The corrup-
ton which was notsriously known to EXIT in
America in certain departments ofthe State
during the prodigally conducted subjugat,on
Of the South by the North, would have
brought any aristocratic form of government
to the very verge Of destruction. Memory
and contempornneous observation alike will
provide our readers with instances which we
need not more plainly adduce of thrones
both old and new, being graveIy shaken BY
the seli-iniilcted loss Of majesty which ought
to hedge them. But ! republic seems none
the worse for the ill-manners or venat repu-
tstion of its lowest or highest servants. Every
shred of character may, in public esteem, be
torn from the back of secretary, general or
judge, but the Office seems to be in no de-
gree imperled. The immortal institutions
appear capable of tiding over every scandal,
The story of the Diamond Neckaee has oil,
ways been considered to have played nc
small part in fastening and aggravaiiug the
tall OF the French monarchy, thong the story,
as We all know, was an utterly fnlse one We
do not suppose that the story-just fresh from
America-about Mrs. Lincoln shawls, will
at all damage the United States Republic,
and vet there can be no doubt whatever that
it is a true one. Indeed, Mrs. Lincoln has
been good enough to tell it for itself. Ii is
as though Marie Antoinette, instead of con
tradictng and refuting everything alleged by
the Countess de la Motta had confessed TO
!, the whole truth Of that imroster's extraor,
binary charges

that the man who mArries plain girl never
need be jealous. He is in the Arcadian and
fortunate condition of lover who has no II

SHAMELESS ArFAIR.-A correspondent of
the Portland (Me.) Argus writing from Swe.
den in that State, tells the following disgrace
ful story:
"A man living in this town has Just com.
mitted an oct that deserves the censure of the
public, as it has already received that of his
neighbofs. He has formally contracted with
his brother to take out Of his way his aged
and invalid wife, and support, clothe and
bury her for $1,000. She has been hard
working and faishful wife, and has raised
large family of children, who have never felt
whatt was to be disgraced till now. One of
them, man Of 20 years and upward, cried
like child when he heard Of the affair He
offered to support her himself if the old man
would give him the farm to do il with, which
was refused. And now this man sends his
wife from home where she has outlived her
usefulness to die among strangers He has
not even the excuse of poverty to plead, for
be Is accounted the richest man in the town.
