Pnor1rs OF LoYALrY.-The Campaign
Digest, published in Washington City, ID.
c., gives the names of large number OF
wealthy Radicals, among which are Grant,
Sherman, Wade, Spraguc, Schencll, ana
other distinguished Radical lenders W hose
aggregate wealth amounts to eight hun
dred million dollars. Before the : Repnb-
lican rebellion in 1861, these distin-
guishcd Radicals, according to the same
authority. were worth about million of
dollars. In four years of war, or rather,
four years of plunder they accumulated.
by plundering the public treasury, the net
sum of seven hundred and ninety-ninc
millions dollars Loyalty, to them, has
been profitable. 1t is no wonder that the
public debt in oight years of Radical rule,
increased to nearly twcntly-slx hundred
million dollars. Nearly eight hundred
million dollars went into tho pockets of
these distinguished Radical patriots. How
much the minor Radical patriots stole
from the treasury in various different
ways will never be asccrtaincd. God
preserve the American people from an.
other -four years rule of these lcechcs
These eight hundred millions, too, arc
invested in government bonds, and cx-
empted from taxation.

EDMUND BURKE's IDEA of A PERFECT
W1rE.-Shc is handsome, but it is not a
Beauty arising from the features, from
complexion or shape. She has all three
in high degree, but it is not by these
she touches the hearr-iti is all that
ness of temper. bcncvolence, innocence
and sensibility which face can express,
that forms her beauty. She has face
that arouses your attention at first sight (;
it grows upon you at every moment, and
you wonder it did not moro than raise
your attention at first. Her eyes have Il
mild light, bnt they awe when sho pleascs,
they command, like good man out OF
office, not by authority, but by virtue.
Her stature is not tall she is not made
TO be the admiration of every ono, but the
happiness of Que. She has the iirmncss
that does not exclude delicacy all Of the
softncss that does not imply weakness
Her voice is soft, low music, not formed
by rule in public assemblies, but to charm
those who can distinguish n company
from crowd; it has its advantage, you
must come close to hear it. TO describe
her body, describes her mind-onc is the
transcript of the other. Her understand
ing is not shown in the variety Of matter
it cxcrts upon, but the goodness Of the
choice she makes. Her polteness flows
rather from natural disposition to
oblige, than any rules ON that subject,
and, therefore, never fails to strike those
who understand good breeding and those
who do not.

GEN. SHERMAN on NEGRO SUFFRAGE.
in speech which he made to the re-
tnrned soldiers ut Chicago in August,
1865, General Sherman took occasion to
give expression to his views Upon the ca
pacity Of the negroes to exercise the
elective franchise. If all the Northern
soldiers would adopt these views and in
sist upon their enforcement, there would
even now be no trouble in settling the
vexed question. On the occasion referred
to, General Sherman said:
II want those who have been in the
Sohuh, TO bear testimony to the condition
of these freed negroes. My opinion Is
that they are not fitted for the exercise OF
the franchise | want them to get II IAN
price for their labor, but do not THINK
they are fitted TO take part in The iegisla
ton of the country"

FEMININE DIMINUTIvFs. - Helen
writes piquantly and properly to the Revolu.
ton:
To women who hold the theory that they
independent, thoughtful beings, able to
support themselves, and something more
than pets and playthings of men, have a
suggestion to offer.
1t would be more dignifed, and sound
much better in coming before the public, if
women would give their Christian names in
full, without disfguring them with any of the
diminutiveS that are so fashionable and COM
mon. Elizabeth is a stately name; but Liz
zie is suggestive of one who is weak and
dependent, however beautiful she NAV be.
Catharine is beautiful and strong, but Katie.
or kittie what burlesque on the original
name. So with all pet or nick-names. Who
could imagine Miss Anthony doing so ridicu-
lous thing as to call herself Susie Think
Of Hattie Stove or Maggie Fuller, One
Kansas paper had the hardihood to nickname
Mrs. Stanton, Liz, but it produced tremen-
dous recoil on the editors head How ridi-
culous would men appear in public or in bus
mess life with their names thus belitled.
Wouldn't Sandy L. Stewart sound well a
merchant prince: or Johnny c. Green or
Willie E. Dodge? True, we can say Andrew
Johnson and feel that it is appropriate, but
think of LySsie Grant. or Cumpy Sherman,
or Phillie Sheridan. or Sammy Chase! Men
don't wish their names minced or belittled

SINGULAR OCCuRREHCE.-The New Orleans
Picayune says that the late Judge Maurian
of that city happened to be At Caracas a,
the time it was visited with the destructive
earthq'.ak, n 1872. A merchant of the city
with whom he had business relations, had
insisted upon his going cut Of town to visit
his country estate a few leagues distant, be-
vond range of sea coast hills. During the
night the shock Of an earthquake was felt at
this estate al d its vicinity, and it was thought
best to shorten the visit and return to town
to ascertain If anv in Jury had befallen it. On
reaching the point where the road crosses the
summit of the hills. an immense cloud of
dust overhung the site Of the city, and they
hastened 10 reach it with all sTeed. Judge
Maurian felt very anxious, as he had left in
the armoir of his furnished room sack
containing all the gold he had at command
On reaching the citr. his first care was to
make his way as rapidly as the many obSta
cleS offered by masses If stone and timber
in the streets would permit. At last he arrived
at the house where his room was, and found
that it had been delivered into the portions,
almost as neatly if machinery had been
employed in the operation. Looking up, he
was as much surprised as yejoiced to see the
arinoir, which contained his effects, standing
upright near the wall. A ladder pro-
cured, and, climbing it. he soon had the pre-
cious bag Of doubloons in his hands.

| SOAR GROWING on TREEs.-Soap berries
are to be found in immense numbers through
out Alaska. They grow on a bush about
the same in appearance as whortleberries,
When ripe they are red, of a juicy and quiz
nine taste, and generally biennial. One
quart taken and placed in tub the size of
a bu>hel will, when stirred, completely fill
the tub with froth, and the more it is
stirred with the naked hand and arm, the
sitter it becomes, until you can cut it with
knife. 1t is eaten with horn or wooden
spoons, all the family sitting round the tub.
1t is undoubtedly an acquired taste, but the
commodity is much sought for. The froth
is of beautiful pink color. Green berries
will make nearly the same amount of frnth.
but it is of white color and is not so highly
favored. Foreigners stir 1t with port IT
sherry wines, and add sugar. in which case
it is delicious luxury. Large quantities
are dried, by being placed in tub with their
leaves, forming a cake, which is placed on
wicker tables, with light fires under and the
sun overhead. When dried they will keep
in dry place for years. The dried berries
are black and look dirty. A piece two in
ches square, beaten in a water pool, will fill
it full Of froth of dark pink color.

THE TENURE OF OFFICE ACT.

The same reasons which called fol
the passage of the Tenure of Office Act
demand its repeal in time to place the
power of removal in Grants hands.
That law was passed in order to pre-
vent Andrew Johnson from filling the
offices which had heretofore been con-
sidered at the disposal of the President,
with unrepeu,ant rebels ard Copper
heads but, as it is apt to be the case
with such enactments, it d" worked both

for retaining in place hundreds of cor

under this bad order Of things and it

whom were disembarked in Aspinwail and
came across to Panama with the passengers.
One Of them was picked up by the agent OF
the company as soon as the matter was
brought to his notice, and placed in the little
foreign hospital here. The other two, de-
cent looking Frenchmen, were round the

WHO DOES JEFF. DAVIS BELONG TO !,

: In the spring Of 1865 the Government
Of the United States offered a reward o
$500, 900 for the body of jeff. Davis
: One morning a party of cavalrymer
discovered that precious individual
struggling under the restraint of petit.
coat government and took him prisoner,
water bucket, crinoline, bonnet, aqua
scuta and all. These captivating troop
ers thereupon applied for the proffered
reward, and here, the other day. it was
paid over to them. In the meantime
jeff, after being boarded at the expense
Of the Government for two years at Fort
Monroe, was bailed out by Horace
Greeley and others, was arraigned for
trial, was let off for a time, was ar
raigned again and finally allowed to
consider himself the recipient of noNe

roast beef and plum pudding and lecture

MINISTER JOHNSON AS A DEMA-
GOGUE

Reverdy Johnson's department has
heretofore, been considered simply friv
oious and lacking in that sober dignit,
whichTs deemed fitting in the condnc
of an American A AMBASSADOR but if b,
i, correctly reported in late kilograms
lie has been guilty of prostitu,irg hi:
official character to a degree which
calls for the severest reprebension
Says cable dispatch of the 18th in
slant:
A letter from Reverdy johnson to the Lon.
con Workingmen's Society iustifes his
friendly intercourse with Laird and other
friends of the Southern States bv the ex-
amples of Grants and Sherman's treatment
Of rebel officers. If he is guilty of treason
SO are Grant and Sherman. General Grant
has entertained at his own home distin-
Cuished rebel leaders. He ascribes the at
tscks upon him in American newspapers to
secret dislike for the preservation of peace
fai relations between England and the United
States.
la these statements and conclusions,
Minister Johnson is guilty of what is
little better than pettifoggery and alb
sc!utc uutruthfuIress. The courteous
aud kindly treatment Of rebel officers by
Grant and herman is of widely diff
ferent nature from the American Min
listers cordial reception Of an English
rebel sympathiser and no man who
wished to deal frankly and sincerely
would be guilty OF such defense
Every rebel officer and private is under
u parole of honor to General Grant, and
the General only displays a commenda-
bic magnanimiiy when be treats them
with civiliiy; aud while Admiral Farra-
gut might, if he chose, extend a fellow
sailors politeoess to Captain Scmmes,
the accredited representative of the
United States abroad is going far GU. of
the line Of proprie,y when he frs'er-
