GRANT SPEAKS A PIEcE.-In response
to serenade at Galeua, on the 9th inst,
Grant made the following speech:
Friends and fellow citizens of Galena:
Thanks for this additional mark of kind
ness. Sufficient has now been heard of
the result of the election, to show upon
whom has fallen the great honor to ad-
minister the affairs of Government for the
next four years. l suppose it is no ego
tism in me to say that choice has fallen
on me. The responsibility of the position
| feel, but | accept it without fear, if [
have the same support which has been Civ
en- me thus far. l thank you and all others
who fought togetherin this contest-a con-
test in which all are interested personally
as much and more than I. now take oc-
casion to bid you good bye, as leave to-
morrow for Washington, and shall probably
see but few of you again for some years to
come, although it would give me great
pleasure TO make another pilgrimage to
the place where have enjoyed myself
so much during the past few months" !"
At the conclusion of Grants speech, a
crowd proceeded to the residence of Con-
gressman Washburn, whomade striking
speech.

flowers; vine and no grapes brook
and no water gurgling and rushing in Its
channels. We want to be tried. to be
yexed, to be run over, to hear child.life a.
work with all its varieties.
During the secular days this is enough
marked. But it is Sunday that puts our
homes 10 the proof I hat is the Christian
family day. The intervaIas of public
worship are long spaces of peace. The
family seem made up on that day. The
children are at home. You can lay your
hands on their heads. They seem to re-
cognIEe the greater and lesser love-to
God aud to friends. The house is peace
ful, but not still. There is a low and
melodious thrill of children in it. But
Sunday comes too still now. There is a
silence that aches in the ear. There is
too much room at tie table, too much at
the hearth. The bedrooms are world
too orderly. There is too much leisure
and too little care.
Alas What mean these things? Is
somebody growing old ? Are these signs
and tokens Is life wearing ?-Er.

RICHMOND, December 12-In the
United States Circuit Court this
morning, Judge Underwood presid-
ing, the case of Sally Anderson,
(colored,) sentenced to death by the
County Court for arson, was brought
up on habeas corpus, on the ground
that one of the magistrate, composing
the Court which tried her had held
the office of constable before the
war, and being thereby disqualified
by the fourteenth amendment, the
whole court was illegal and it's pro-
ceedingS vitiated. Judge Underwood
sustained the prisoners plea and dis
charged her from custody. In de-
livering the opinion, he said if even
the Clerk ofthe Court was disqualified,
itvitiated the proceedings. There are
159 convicJs in the State prison, who
have been sentenced since the adop-
ton of the amendment, who may
now be released by habeas corpus,
