FALLING BACK ON HIS DIGNITY.

Iii related by the author of Barnaby
Rudge that in the occasional controver-
sizes between the self important and
irascibie landlord of the Maypole Tavern
aad his son Joe, the elder Willet, after
berstiug his scion in harsh and angry
terms, was accustomed to wind up his
sco,diug with, "Hold your tongue,
sir ,"-before poor Joe could say
word. There was not much even hand
ed Justice in this sort of thing and 1t
"a no great wonder that Joe's father
came to grief in the long run ; nor is 1t
very surprising that Joe, one night,
seeded from the paternal roof and
fought it out on his own individual line.
Ones sense of disgust being held In
temporary allegiance, a sense OF the
Iudicrous makes itself felt as we regard
the las. resort of the President in his
self damaging controversy with Grant.
I.would seem that Andrew has been
measuring the General by an East Ten
nessee standard of his own underra-
ting him, in fact !; and installing his
r.,icent manner and modest demeanor
for a lack of pluck and self assertive
temper. But being goaded past all en-
durance. this diffdeat William Dobbin
fires up, at last aud when he does talk
back to the President, be reveals as
much earnest heart and glowing passion
As the most free spoken men who have
been irr;,ated and insulted by the occu-
paut of the White House. Protesting
N pIain and uumistakable terms and
"upon the honor of soldier " that be
ia unwilling longerto submit to course
which sssails his character for veracity
and places a mocking misinterpretation
upon his motives, General Grant gives
,bs Presidsn. to understand that he re-
sents such a course of procedure and
the baked and frustrated demagogue,
falling back upon his official dignity,
emulates the pasernal Willet, with
Hold your tongue, sir !! am your
superior officer and will permit no
more of such language !" Well, what
other course is left to his Imperial
Majesty, after being throttled by the
quiet General and made to stand,
scowling, at bay?
Grant is bringing matters to climax
a. Washington. He has, by his honest
and determined course, diverted the
Presidential wrath from Congress and
Stanton; aud, by the institution Of a
question of veracity between himself
and the most notorious promise-breaker
upon the face of the earth, invoked the
Judgment of the people between his
own character and that Of his "superior
officer" the President. The General
need entertain no fears of the verdict.
The man who dares to impugu his mo-
,ives and call him liar insults the en-
tire loyal people of the Republic and
in the great issue which is before the
country 10 incident will arise which will
consolidate the patriotism of the Nation
more thoroughly than the circumstances
of this breach between the author of
* Ny Policy" and the beloved General
iu-Chief Of the Union armies.

you come to look at it. ;"
HeOpposed the Wilmot PrOvisO.
He supported the Fugitive Slave
Law.
He sustained the Nebraska bill re-
pealing the restriction on slavery ex-
tension.
He apologized for or defended the
border ruffian Outrages in Kansas.
He sustained Breckenridge against
Douglas in 1860.
He threw the blame of the beginning
of secession upon the Republicans
while Mr.. LincOlnwas only President
elect.
He asserted that to call out troops to
suppress the rebellion was more Frev-
OlutiOnaryn than the rebellion itself.
He declared the Montgomery con-
stitution better than ours, and ex-
pressed the opinion that the war
ought to be avoided by the North
adopting it, thus giving the highest
possible sanction to treason.
He neverin the last eight years once
delivered any argument, appeal,
denunciatiOn or cenSure against the
rebel cause; and never failed to charge
revolution, usurpation, outraged op-
preston, tyranny and all the political
crimes in the calandeT upon the Re
publcans.
July 1, 1868, while Lees army was
in Pennsylvania, on its way to Phi
adelphia and New York, and he had
heurd only Of jt8 success, he delivered
an Oration in New York, imploring
the North to ompromise, waining it
against ciUH lCdr at home, and de
nOuncing the Republicans for :" in
fringing upon our rights, insulting
ourhomes. and depriving us of those
cherished principles for which our
fathers fought, and to which we have
sworn allegiance,
In oratiOn aforesaid he warned the
Republicans thus - Rememberthis;
that the bloody, reasonable, and
revolutionary, doctrine Of public nee
essity can be proclaimed by a B3Ob as
well as by q Government"
When Lee had been defeated, and
nevertheless the mob arose, which
his language had invited, he address
ed them a his - friends, " was receiv-
ed as their friend, and promised to
get what they were fighting for, the
suspension of the draft
He told Mr.. Lincoln that the draft
act was unconstitutional, and warned
him that ifit was enforced his friends
might resist it.
He presided at the Chicago COnven-
ton, and, with it, declared the war a
failure, and called for an immediate
peace-that is for disunion.
He opposed, and now opposes the
Fourteenth amendment, and all mea-
sures marking treason as a crime.
Finally during the last eight years,
he has been admired and hOnored bv
every rebel in the country, and dis
trusted and hated by ninety-nine out
OF a hundred of those who demanded
the suppression Of treason.

very liberal contribution of their
catch. No wonder, then, that the
fishermen that evening, as they came
to make comparisons with each Others
success, found themselves far distane
cd by us, we having about three to
their one.
The Cooke party promised not to
go back on us relative to the dona.
tion, ard faithfully they kept their
word. But now that the contest for
supremacy in angling is over, l feel
It my duty to make the confession,
lest some Of the party we SO badly
defeated will take to the dipsy at the
next seasons fishing, and thus aid in
soon spelling the spleudid fishing
grounds around Putin Bay Island.
The afternoons fishing was equally
as good as the mornings and on the
next day, when we visited Rattlesuake Q
island, we found the fsh just as eagor
to take the bait. Our catch that day
amounted to seventy three, nineteen
ofwhich were lost from the string by
the carclessness Of the oarsmau,
or course the capture of such a
number afforded us much sport, and
had IL not been for two four pound
bass which | had lost from my hook
there would have been no regrets.
We f'hed till near suudowu that
day, aud when we started on the home
stretch We noticed after leaving the
lea shore that the wind had rreshened
aud quite a sea was on. We did not
relish the pull ever, for every now
and then tho boat would come down
with heavy thump into the trough
of the sea, aud then the rolling white
caps treated us TO shower bath we
did not at that time fancy or desire.
However, by alternating at the oars,
we, after an hours hard pulling (tor
the wind was dead ahead of us) cross
cd the Hollcspont and then rounded
Peach Point into the bay, where the
flickering lights from the hotel greet
cd our vision like twinkliug stars in
the armament above.

keen appetite for the warm supper
that awaited us, aud the way the
servant maid eyed US as We dispatch
ed dish after dish offood, she doubt
less thought we were quite famished.
As for our brothers of the rod, they
had most excellent sport as well as
ourselves, and to hear the talk after
supper Of how this fish was won aud
and that one lost, you wsuld believe,
dear reader, that there was great ex-
citement as we'll as tranquil enjoymel

With women the moral influence Of
