Tho Hester Vaughn Sensation

We arc glad this unfortunate young wo-
man has been saved from the gallows, and
hope she will reform, but it is a case over
which an extraordinary amount Of sen,i.
mental twaddle has been sprinkled am!
when the plain facts were brought out, all
the highlalutin nonsense about injured it,
uoccncc," "blightcd hopes" beauty Iured
to ruin," through mans treachery, etc., was
completely exploded Poor Hester Vaughn
not impellcd by want, in a good home, work
ing for pay, which she received promptly,
surrounded by respectability and refinement,
10 use her own language, "sinfully met a
common laboring man, not under promise
Of marriage, met him but once, and the re.
suit Of this meeting was child Of shame. p"
1t strikes US that the weak minded women
who arc working up this case, had better
find comfortable home for Hester, as soon
as possible, and drop the subject. 1t has
been quite as well ventilated as lIcster's
virtue and their common sense will allow.

NEuRo CARPET. BAGGERs. seems that
the South is not only to be afflicted with the
swarm Of lean and lantern,jawcd Yankees,
who are pushing themselves into every va.
cant Office they can find, but that the Nc
gro Congressman from that section arc also
of the carpet-bag species. Tho mulatto
who is now hanging round the lobby Of the
House, waiting for recognition of his
claims as Representative from Louisiana,
is not q Southern negro. lie cmigratcd
from Ohio since the war, where it seems he
voted for Lincoln in 1860, contrary to the
laws of that State. Now this vagrant
Northern negro pops up as Representa-.
tive Of slie negro voters Of the South. In
the name Of the BARRIERS, the boot-blacks,
the waters, the black mechanics, and the
field hands Of the South, VIC protest against
this rs unfair. Let them send men Of their
own class, if We must llavo negro Congress.

A LITTLE TOO MUcH.-A few days since
we received tho Prospectus Of the Now York
Tribune, for the year 1869, asking us to give
It one Or more insertions, 'as may seem u
usjust." It,vould mako nearly two col.
uuns in our paper, and besides tho setting
up Of tho composition and publishing Of lie
sa,nc, an exchange is required Of our week.
" for the year. This is little moro than
w afc in the habit Of doing for our Demo-
cratic Dailies In the first place we do not
agree with the TsiLunc, politically, and in
the second place thero Is little too much
labor about its prospectus to insure its pub
lication in many Democratic papers at least.
What wc would do for the Tribune at this
or at any other tin'o in the way Of assisting
in its circulation wc desire to bc gratitousy
done. We arc not willing to lend our COL
umns in the way some Of our Radical oppo-
Sition cotc,nporaries would wish to use them.
Tho Tribune has been 80 long and favorably
known by the American people as the lead
ing political newspaper Of this country tl'at
it needs no introduction by tho country
weekly press. As newspaper it has few If
my equals and no superiOrs. ltalways con-
tsins full aud accurate reports Of Congress
aud tho State Legislature, besides careful
summaries of news from all quarters of the
Globe. Its correspondence from all the
principle centres of home and abroad is Of
great interest to the reading public. This
paper dcvotcs moro space to agriculture,
commerce, markets and politics then any
other paper in Now York city. Price Of
Daily, one year, $40; for six months, $500.
Tho semi. weekly Tribune will be furnished
to subscribers at 800; two copies, ono year
500; the weekly Tribune, one year, 200;
five copies, 5000; ten copies, $1,000. lfany
Of our Republican friends desire a lice, truly
hoyul anil mliet newspaper, We would AL
wise them to subscribe for the Tribune. To
Democrats We would only say, support your
own papers, but il you arc determined to
have an opposition paper, take the worst.
