OF impatience, came to meet me-
SIS that you, DR.. Meller2 Z thought
YOU would never come. We're; in q:

no offence, Meller, but he lives nearer

Hopkins, the butler, was as volu-
BILE as his master, and ten times as
circumstential; and by the time I
had set his broken forearm, I was
pretty well in possession of all the
particulars of the attempted bur-
glary at Haddenleigh. ,,'9 3.
And, thinking of my midnight
patient, whose life had ebbed out
upon the pile of straw, felt strange
guiltiness as / listened to Colonel
Hadden's eager conjectures as to the
whereabouts of the desperadoes who
had fled. 49, ~.
Sand now, Doctor, you'll take a
glass of wine," said the hospitable
old gentleman, ushering me into his
library. 49, f.a
It was brilliantly lighted, and warm
with the crimson glow of genial
fire, before which, in q singularly
graceful attitude, sat a lady. wrapped
in the gorgeous folds Of an Indian
shawl. 5f,'Tz... 4.

We stood before one another in
silence. I conld not speak, for I
knew that I was looking into the
startled, agonized eyes of the woman
who had knelt scarcely an hour ago
by the dying couch in the desolate
cottage-Col. Hadden's new wife, of
whose beauty / had heard 30 much.
The Colonel talked on, but heard
not o word that he said. I could not
but marvel at the wonderful self-pos-
session of the woman, who smiled
and looked grave, and said eyes,
and "No" in the right places.

THE RESULT.

Contrary to the expectation of great many, and certainly to the desire of 8 large majority of our people, the elcc- ton has resulted in favor of the Radi- cal candidates for President and vice. President. Whi.c we have little or no official news, yet, we have received suf1icient to warrant the conclusion that Grant and Colfax arc elected by q large majority. To say that we do not like this is 10 say, perhaps, too little. We cannot help thinking, nor will we Ycfrain from saying. that the election of these men will bring no such peace as the Radicals have prophesicd. How this election was brought aboUt, what particular wrong steps were taken by the Democracy which resulted in the defeat of our candidates, Of course, it is not for us nor are we prepared to cay. That frand, stupendous fraud has been employed as means to secure the triumph of Rsdicalism, will not for . moment be doubted. Backed by Governmental power, with registra- tion, and we might say, the ballot box in their own hands tho Radicals cer- tainly held very powerful lever with which to elevate themselves and their party into office. Yet while thcse things are facts and to every honest Democrat source of great discomfi- ture, still it is useless to grumble and quarrel although these facts tell us too plainly that Grant is to be onr next President. We confer that in this re- suit we arc amongst the many disap- pointed, yet we are not cowcd nor are fcady to give up the government as ruined, nor yet farther, to desert the Democratic party as having lost its chart and ready to go down beneath the mighty waves of defeat which have come upon it. The best we can do now is wait-wait and see in what di- rcction Grant will steer the ship of State, what line of policy he will pur- sue, and if new iniquities are attempt cd, additional political outrages per- petrated upon us, trust to time and Providence for the developement of a way of escape.

SExsrDLE ADVICE. -.A Mobile negro, sho, some time ago emigra,ed to Liberia. writes some good sense back to his friends q his old home. He says:
 l hope tue democrats will triumph over tbeir enemies g. Christ trlumphed over Asa,h. bell and the grave. As for the col cred people. let them all come to Liberia
 Here is the place for them. on this, one of sAs Sas4s continents in the world, whore they c.n live to themselves and have as much good land as they can cultivate. BSt they stsy there in America to con tend with the white man for his govern nens, where there are thirty four millions of white people to defend their govern. nsot. Brethren, l beg you, as one who wishes you well. come over and help culti- .a,e this rich soil. and by so doing we shall gain favor with all the leading power of the earth. and particularly with the people of the United States, whu are oar friends when we get here. But if you stay where you are. know too we'll what is going to b ccome of you. The white people of tho United States are go ing to rule the country. snd they are not Soisg to let you have anything to do with ruling it. And thcy are right. would he just ss they are if I were in their places. I vos,a battle agairs, you all as l,ag as I had tke Lsssth to draw.

The Elections.

The election on Tuesday passed of quietly at Little Rock and so far as our information extends, throughout the state. The official vote of this city, to- gether with Big Rock and Eastman townships, as announced is 2.563 for Grant and Colfax, and 4S7 for Seymour and Blair. The remarkable dispropor- tion of legal voters to the population
 is of course incxplicable. It is like
 wise true that negro boys voted, and
 men whom it would seem were not af-
 fected by any of the disabling clauses imposed by the constitution, were cut of. It was little hard for those most interested in the success of good gov ernmcnt. and whose good intentions rose above all prejudice or ill feeling for the wrongs of the past, to be coldly turned away from the polls without explanation. It was also q circum- stance quite unusual in the history of our country for the contents of the bal lot-box to receive the summary reck- oning that casual glance into the for bidden room where the votes were counted revealed. We might allude to a great many other trivial affairs, but we forhear. The public know them and space need not be wasted in mak- ing deductions and conclusions.
 The future now, without doubt, may be spent most profitably in making the best of what passing hours may bring, and hope springs up anew in the con. .ciousness of the utter weakness and final failure of those who neither seek 10 excuse nor palliate their acts on grounds of ordinary decency or com non justice. The past is replete with lse.ul lessons, and the future is preg- lant with glorious triumphs of the tight over the wrong. It has ever been hus. The enemies of good govern nent, wise laws, moderation and peace. iave the seeds of destruction sown in heir own ranks, and will be forced to 'ield to the memorable decrees of fate.

STuPENDors FRAUDS DIscovEREp.- The most stupendous revenue frauds have been discovered in Washington. And so great is the power and wealth gained by the perpetrators that it is almost certain they will be able to laugh at the authorities and the laws. Tho prospects arc growing bright that we shall have plenty of taxation with representation as we'll as without. We have q small national debt to pay in gold. A debt not quite so large due from the States. And an unasccrtained debtsupposed 10 be about fifteen hun dred millions more. That will take one-half the property of the North if paid now. Or the whole in interest i f the payment is deferred. We don't take the South into the calculation, be- cause no blood can be squeezed out of our turnip. The blessings of poverty are manifold. The thieves will not do much in this quartcr.-Memphis Led ger.

do doubt under which banner they

desire to say is this In view of the

should allow nothing whatever to inter
