Mas. KATE SpRAGUE.-A Washington
correspondent paints the following high
fslu.iu picture Of tho wife of. Senator
Sprague, nee Miss Kate Chase "She is
the Eugenle Of the Great Republic
He says "she is the queen of fashion
and good taste. Her costume is just as
perfect as the lilly or the ros0. She is
a lilac blossom to-day. Not particle
of jewelry is visible upon her person.
She has copied her bonnet from the
pansy or wood violet. A single flower,
of lilac tings, large enough for the new
STYLE rests upon her head and is fss-
tened to its place by lilac tulle SO flmy
that il must have been stolen from the
purple mist Of the morning. An ex-
duisi,e walking dress Of pale lilac silk
has trimmings q shade darker, while
lilac gloves conceal a hand that nigh be.

GRAND LARcsSY.-Tim Lynch, the Eel
low who exercised his seductive powers
on Ellen Casey and her mothers money
some time ago, was found guilty OF
grand larceny in n Of the San Fran
cisco Courts, day before yesterday.
This should warn young men against
having too many irons in tho fire. AM
ativeness and secretiveness should act
separately. II Timothy had taken the
girl and left the money he might not
have been punished. II no had stolen
the money and left the girl the police
might have found no clue to detect him.
Tim certainly botched things.

WHO NExTp

The San Francisco Meps Letter has
mover been a noted adhcrent Of
tho Republican party. In fact It's
office received considerable attention on
tho night that Lincoln's assassination
was announced in San Francisco. But
the Ne,0s Letter has u keen eye for tho
main chance, aud the following arc q
few excerpts from its issuc of tho 23d,
in. relation. to tho nomination Of Grant
and Colfax:
Many will affect to deprecats the elevation
Of 4 military leader to tho Prssidencyi yet
tho same parties, 10 Democrats, Will remen-'
Der that only four years ago Mcclellan, tnen
the commanding generalpf an army IN inc
held, was their candidate for the once OF
Chief Magistrate. Then war existed; nov
ne,es prcyails. Then the army numbered
Half . million fighting men, now reduced TO
a msr, handful Of soldiers. II there was ever
dannsr in clothing a military leader with ex.
o~cutiye W il was at . time when the
minds Of tho people were Unnamed by civil
var, and when the soldiers Of . great army
surrounded the National Capitol with arms
in their hands and enthusiasm In their hearts
for their lender. Whether
of the three branches Of the Government Of
the United States the Congress or the Presi-
dent shall be paramount, may DO u matter Tor
politicians to discuss. What we dosire is to
see an administration harmonious-the CO.
ordinate departments In friendly. working.
The President, a. commander-in-ehiet OF tho
armies and head Of tho civil administration,
should DO in accord with the Legislative and
Judicial branches of tho Government.
. We are not a politician. We
are writing this article for the consideration
Of bushes, men-men whose politics Is the
control and management OF their property,
who desire repose; and this is our idea and
theirs: It 10 better for the President, the
Congress, and the Court to be united, even
p o a bad policy, than for each Of them to
have = good but separate policy. Congress
has q hxcd policy Of reconstruction. Grant
il in accord with Congress, and II elected
President we may hope for 4 final settlement
Of these difficulties, and the nation get back
to peace and business. The status OF the
United States Senate is fixed for several years
At least ; and II any one Is elected President
with views in opposition to Congress, we sec
nothing before US but agitation and turmoil.
What we want 10 order,
system, and quiet, an economical admins
tration, reduced taxation, good faith in the
payment Of the national debt, resumption Of
specis payment, q thoroughly generous and
lust treatment to the South, a firm admins
~tration, honorable foreign diplomacy, protec-
ton to aud industry.
Believing that all these arc to be Sc
cured by tho election OF General Graut,
the article favors his elevation.
