LABoULAYE, the eloquent French advocate
of our cause during the rebellion, writes to
a friend in the United States: Now that the
election of a new President to execute the
laws Of Congress approaches, | need not tell
YOU that my wishes are for General Grant.
The wisdom and humanity shown by him
during the war, his respect for the law, his
capacity for affairs, prove him wholly worthy
to stand among the successors of Washing
ton. am sure that with him you will have
enduring peace. The South has learned both
to honor and fear General Grant, and his
Presidency will compete the reconstruction
of the Union.

JOHN MINOR Boris has been inter-
|'iewed by a newspaper man. In reply to
IA question as to the probability of war in
case of the election of Seymour, Mr.. Bolts
said: think we shall have no open war in
any event, and if Grant is elected by an i'm
posing vote, as he probably will and should
be, we shall have pretty quiet time in the
Future; but if Seymour should come so near
10 it as to give encouragement to their am
bilious hopes of ultimate success, we shall
have in the South what will be far worse than
open war, for that can be put down once and
forever. We shall probably have a great
disturbance of the public peace, public pros
perity greatly retarded, and good fellowship
between the different sections and among
ourselves indefinitely postponed

THE Circus was quite as literally pat
ronizcd last night upon its first appear
ance. The performance was, if anything
better than on Friday night. The riding.
particularly, was superb. Theodore Cuba
the young ontrablnd-surpa,>ed himself
with his feats of horsemanshi?. We have
never seen his equal as summersaultor on
horseback. Th2 Camanche-a sure enough
Indians as far ahead of all imitators Of
Wild Indian riding as it is possible for one
to imagine. His feats are fearfully daring
The vau!ting, feats Of agility, &c, were all
exec lleut. FL Captain, that magnificent
horse, displayed rare sagacity and made
some Of the handsomest leaps ever per-
formed in ring. As on the previous
night. the trick ponies were received with
much favor. This frst-class circus goes
hence to Ni-ginia-a change Of arrangement
taking them past Dayton. We can assure
our friends in Storey, and elsewhere that
this circus is going in this State, that it is |
all and better than we have described it,

The San Francisco Call, of Jan.
30th, has the following:
While newspapers are recording in
stances of benevolence OF those who
have hearts to feel for others woes,
there is another class Of beings existing
in the community who present their
moral antitheses. One, with feeling
Of qualification at the opportunity Of
doing a good act, relieves distress, while
another, grasping for lucre, and dead to
every humane sentiment, mercilessly
scourges poverty, and, in sheer wanton-
ness, aggraVates the sGferings Of those
upon whom misfortune bad cast her
darkest, direst frown. An incident &C.
Cured on Tuesday, which on account
Of its unusual character in this part of
the world, challenges credulity; never
theless, it is true. ~ poor family, con-
sisting Of man, his wife, and three
young children, occupied room not
far from Union Square, in this city, at
a rental Of eight dollars per month. Ad-
versity cast its gloomy pail over this lit
tie household. The husband sought
employment, and, like many others,
sought in vain Their little store of
money waned and became exhausted !;
the table presented scanty fare, aud
though har DIS and hearts were willing,
there was no good Providence to bless
their hearthstone With the comforts
which cheer the homes of the more ia
vored Of Gods creatures. Rent day
came. and the rapacious landlord NUT
tered bitter threats because his demands
brought no money. Another month
brought him another disappointment,
and he summarily elected his unfor-
tunate tenants-turned them ont into
the street.-The man, his delicate wife,
and their dependent, helpless little ones,
turned out shelterless, with all their
badges of restitution, to camp in the
open air like gypsies. They gathered
their little stock of household Goods to-
gether, on Union Square, right under
the eyes of their late pitiless landlord.
and there waiting the whole of Tuesday
night. waited for the morrow that was
to them without promise. Yesterday
they were still there-the mother and
children-while the husband and father
was cut battling with discouragemeuts,
to save his dependant ores from perish
ing. A man is entitled to his rent,
even to his last farthipg, just as Shylock
was entitled to his pound of flesh, but
the contract calls for no blood-not one
drop. There's day of retribution for
the oppressor of Gods poor There's a
Nemesis also in the moral world.

oratory, and such is the debility of the
human understanding. Those who,
suffer under this insanity are generally
the most innocent and harmless people,
who are then liable to accuse themselves
of the greatest imaginary crimes, and

advisers to believe, however contradlc-

tory to the Creator of all things. The
maniacal hallucination at length becomes
so painful, that the poor insane flies from

great, the voice Of reason is Intellectual;
but that of ridicule may save many from
