has IN immense circulation, and this article is at-
traelIng good deal of attention, and Is generally
commented upon by the press Mr.. Parton
branches off co Materially severS times aud In one
place pays high and well moriIed tribute to the
personal purity of woman.
And this reminds me of what friend of mine
once said TO me. He was lawyer Of much abIl-
lty, and was Colonel In the army during the
war He said that II a man took soap and warm
water aud washed his hands, and olterward wash.
cd them In pure water, the water would show
that II had been used He said a woman could
wash her hands IN basin OF pure water aud it
would be apparently as pure after she had used
It as II was before. lie sald that when man
died he would gnash his teeth, groan aud toss
about in his bed; but woman would calmly bid
farewell To her children and friends, turn over
In bed and quietly pass away. lIo said 1t was tho
same way when they went to sleep A man
would be restless and dlsagreeabe, and when
asleep ho would snore stranglo aud choSei but
My opinion Is that there lsa greater contrast
between the purity of mind In the sexes than
there Is In the purity of tho person. When OBJ
serving the deep religious character Of woman,
| am almost inclined to be unlversaIist, 50 far
as she Is concerned. II has been well observed
that woman was last at the cruclfxlon of Christ,
and first OF bis sepucher. And when one poor
woman was brought before him who had been
caught In great crime, he taught her aeeusers O
lesson that ought TO be needed for all time He
told those who were anxious to have heI
stoned to death, that those who were without sin
might cast the lrs; stone at her But this con.
demned all of ;hem and they sneakCd away
This woman was forgiven, aud ouly told to dc
30 no more.
In the state of Ohio there are about as many
women as men; yet saw statement In paper
o few days ago that there were one thousand ana
thirty three men In the Ohio Pcnhentlary, ant
only i,oeaty womea, That tells the whole story
While there are fffg per cent of women IN the
State, there are less than teo per cent of the con
ylcts who are women. Aud there are reasons why
there should be more women conylots than men
lfthe sexes were equally Inclined to do evil
Womans helpless aud oppressed condition hold
out more inducements to commit crime thar
docs the condition of man. And then she Is moi

Our readers know that VIC have thought It bad
policy to run Gen. Grant for President. We
think 50 yet. But VIC have been carefully watch
ing the signs of the times and we are fully satis.
fed that he will be nominated, almost or entirely
without opposition in the convention.
The great danger will then be, over confidence
Let us make up our minds to go into hard po
litical fight. Not five hundred Democrats in Che
United States will vote for Gen. Grant A good
many more than that many thousand Republicans
will not vote for him. The contes will be ter
rible one. But we must unite our forces as best
we can. II the Issue is squOrely made up, and
Grant accepts the situation, we can conquer

nrnrRnER IN EZENTuCKY.

We have already mentioned the fact that ne
gro in Frankfort, the capitol ofthe State OF Ken
lucky was hung by mob of white Democrats.
He had been arrested and placed in jail, charged
with having committed an outrage upon girl
fifteen years Of age. The man was innocent as
appears by the following, from the Frankfort
Commonwealth:
"Mr. John H enderson, coal dealer and man
of reliability, states to us that on the day on
which the deed was committed, he was engaged
with a number Of hands, in hauling coal from
the river bank above the wooden bridge. lie
had boat anchored in the river some ten teet
from the wharf, to VIII ch a single plank was run
out. The carts were backed up to the edge Of
the wharf and the coal was brought IN Jumps
from the boat along this plank and thrown into
the carts. During the early part OF the morning,
he had two hands employed In carrying coal
Finding they could not keep the carts going, he
hired The negro who was hung Jim Mackllni
who began to work at IL O'Clock A. NJ.
The negro was put in the boat with the other
two. Mr.. Henderson stood at the end OF the
plank, on the wharf from noon till the whistle
Of the steam mill blew, at 5l5 o'clock in the even
ing, never being absent therelrOm, except for
one or two MINUTES, when he with the three
hands, went to the fire on shore to warm, and
returned Immediately. His presence was requir-
ed at the end of the plank, in order to prevent
the carts from backing into the river. He never
left his station for single moment except as
above mentioned, aud during all this time the
negro Jim was at work in the boat, and never
went out Of his sight
When the alarm was given that tue girl had
fallen over the cliff the negro Jim was In the
boat. When the officers came to arrest him, he
informed them that the negro was innocent, and
had been with him during the entire time when
the ofiense was alleged to have been committed.
To the truth OF these facts Mr.. Henderson states
he is will ng to make oath, and that they are
corroborated by his son, Robert Henderson, and
by Thomas Bybee Richard Chiles, John Shannon
and Richard Penelin-all white men, and en-
gagged in work at the wharf-hnd by some seV-
en- negroes likewise employed at the wharf. Mr..
Henderson further states that when he was In
formed the negro was to be hung by the mob,
he went to the Catholic Priest and asked him to
intercede with them and obtain trial for the
negro. The Priest did So but his Efforts proved
unuValing.
