4 New Y.rk gos>iper says "aftcr see-
ing the Black Crook and Golden Branch
for SO many months, tue fashionable
world is enamored of legs and arms, and
resolves to assure itself that graceful an
kles and round limbs are not confined to
the den,i-nonde. This is the Legitimate
conclusion after seeing so many Amazon
tan costumes at the fancy balls, with
satin hodices, scarlet and blue sacqueS,
steel shields. helmets and spears, with
tights as comely and CATERS as golden as
those of Bonfanti herself. How many
young ladies' secretly practice hitting a
mark on the wall with their agile toes in
their own rooms, it is impertinent to in
ouire, but the ballet fever seems 10 have
wild run in New York at present
among the ladies as we'll as the gentle
men,"

Hope On,

The present government of our coun-
try, says tile Marion CRESCENT, has been
guilty of gigantic falsehood -palpable,
unqnestionable falschood, and since We
know Congress-the people represen-
tatively-to be destitute of that honor
sA..- -anders, obligations binding gives
faith IN its securities Of right and liberty;
We are not surprised that Grant should
d. as he has done sacrificed his honor
for tie support of a party. He has been
true to the settled policy OF his party
ever since the close of the war-that
may be expressed in one word-FALsE-
HOOD. If Congress be, indeed the expo
ncut of the peoples views, Grant is their
man. IIc is sure of the Presidency, be-
cause he is an arch deceiver. But, we
are not prepared to believe that Congress
is truly representative. The people do
not endorse it's course will not sustain
its policy. There is ye, enough of truth
and honor in the great masses of the
North to condemn the infamy, the Gene
raj of the United States Army, who
stands branded with falsehood, by the
testimony Of the President and Cabinet,
and who, by his own confession, played
the part of a double-faced spy upon his
superior. There is yet honor enough in
the people to punish as it should be
punished, Congress which pledged one
thing during'the war and violated every
pledge afterwards; which annulled the
terms of surrender made by brave men,
whosknew how to treat brave but con-
quered foe; a Congress which to-day
tramples upon every principle of right
and justice. Its day is coming. A day
ofreckoning, such as tyrants, whether
kings or autocrats, or legislative con-
claves, always meet when demented by
the gods, they trample upon human
rights, until outraged right wreaks Bit
ter vengeance upon its oppressor. We
have only to wait and watch. The trail
tors at Washington-for they are more
surely the traitors than ever were Lee,
Davis, and their compeers in arms, will
yet meet doom that will render "trea-
son odious." The great States of the
North and Northwest will yet save the
Constitution, by gathering its scattered
shreds from under the feet of the mad
men who have torn and t: t:ampled it in
the dust, and re-uniting our country
under white mans government, while
the oppressors, who, for power, would
debase their race and outrage civiliza-
ton, will find that they have indeed
reaped the whirlwind. Though "hope
deferred, maketh the heart SICK" let US
hope on.

SALE-DAY. "A multitude of people
danced attendance in our streets in honor
of the occasion-sa day-on Monday.
For fe~ hours, the jostling, pushing,
crowding, yelling, chaffering, of the mot
ley crowd of washed and unwashed,
made confusion worse confounded, which
was not helped much by the agonizing
efforts of various a1ctioneers to make
themselves heard, and to effect Sales.
We had occasion to look up a man or
two, but it might have been easier to find
a needle in haystack, and have afforded
more satisfaction. We thought it would
never d to give it up so, but did never
the!css. Sale-day is an institution, old
and time honored, but it has got to be
too much mixed in color, these days, it's
not so agreeable as it used to was.
Sheriff's sales were as follows: 200
acres at 1926; 1854 at s94o; ,ao5 at 5000;
$50 at $3.50; 100 at s75; 5704 at $l305 !;
90 at s6o5; besides horses, mules, etc.,
which brought good prices.
Outside sales consisted Of stock, wa
gons, carriages, furniture, at fair prices,
and lot of old furbelows-hats, bonnets,
ETC., which latter trumpery went off with
the freedmen, like the wheelbarrow dar-
kies' hot les.
