La Trouble.

A certain distinguished citizen Of
West Virginia has been getting into
trouble in Washington WHALEY has
been honored with whaling. And all
about fair and tickle feminine. There
is much truth in the old philosophers
view that woman, in some way or other,
is the source ofman's direst distresses.
The Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Sun, under date of August
10th, hath this to say concerning the
miseries of WHALEY:
Mr. Killian V. Whaley, late repre-.
sentative in Congress from the State OF
West Virginia, last night appeated be
fore Jastce Mills and charged two men,
named Augustus Boernstein and Au-
gustus Nolte, With assault and battery
with intent to kill him. Wha'ey was
pretty badly bruised about the head,
and when the accused were arrested
Boernsteia was found to have suffered
something. 4 hearing of the case was
fixed for tomorrow morning and some
rich developments are expected, as
preliminary examination last night dis
closed the fact that woman is at the
bottom of the affair.

SLoynlO Seyerity.

Some of the hardest things said about
GRANT are found in Republican papers.
The Whitewater, Wisconsin, Register,
Radical, is responsible for the following:
The truth would seem to be that Gen
eral Grant is out of place in the Presi-
Dental chair. He has no taste for civil
business, possibly he has no talent for it..
He prefers the vulgar snobbery and i'm
moral society of the watering places to
the staid and sober life of the White
House. 1t need not be concealed that
General Grant delights in the society of
the race course and takes delight in
driving nobby horse over Blooming
dale road. For the good name of our
country We may not speak of these
things aloud; but we cannot escape the
conviction that our President is ont of
his element when surrounded by his
Cabinet, and much prefers to select his
company, and is not alway, particular
to select the best"
The Wheeling daily register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1864-1878, 1869-08-13

GRANT says, substantially, that the
only way for the Southern people to
secure the countenance of his Admins
tration is for them to vote the proscrip-
tive Radical ticket. That is to say, in
order to be respected they must prove
themselves unworthy ofrespect. What,
we wo.der, will be his recourse in case
they decline his generous advicef Will
he over.rule their elections and prolong
military rule : More than likely. GRANT
has multitude of army officers to pro-
vide for, and his astute mind can devise
no better employment for them than to
keep them in authority over the people
OF the South.

The Leagsers.

The National Executive Committee OF
the Union League met in PHILADELPHIA
on Wednesday. GEARY made q speech
of welcome, and was probably sincere
in his cordial words; he needs assistance
badly, and as their meeting was partly
to aid his election, it was unq uestiona.
bly, welcome.
The Committee concluded that they
had been on tho winning side long
enough, and proceeded to fasten their
fortunes to the fate of proscriptivs
Radicalisn in Tennessee and Missis-
sippi. To which step they will be in
debted for q realizing sense Of what q
wholesome threshing means.
A corruption fund tor the coming
elections was provided; and all subor-
dinate Leagues throughout the Union
were addressed" This means that the
State organizations are to compel gen.
eral shelling out from the Federal Off
GELS in their respective localities. Fed
eral officials in this State will please
take notice and prepare to come down.
We regret exceedingly to add that the
assessments are unusually heavy, more
cash being required this season to move
the "loyal" masses than ever before.
The League demanded the removal Of
the Conservative Republicans in Mis-
sissippi. This means declaration Of
hostilities against the Presidential con.
sort, who, as is well known, is inter.
ested in the success of her brother,
Judge DENT, the Conservative RepubH-
can candidate for Governor in that State.
Whether in opposition to her sweet will,
a League resolution to move officers will
have anything like the effect Of faith to
move mountains, remains to be seen.
Altogether the League meeting was
lovely affair. Those who read the re-
port of the proceedings will be struck
with the quiet self-confdence of the
League in undertaking rather large
contract, and may regard with
irreverent incredulity the attempts of
the Leaguers to dispose of the mass of
work they have undertaken.

Another Complication.

Petticosts in politics are not to be
trified with. Mrs. GRANT, for example,
don't take much interest in public af.
fairs, but when she once determines to
have her say, she has it. ''For when
she will, she will, you may depend
ont" Therefore the course of BOUT
WELL in trying TO defeat her brother,
Judgs DENT, for Governor of Mississip-
pi, has turned her softness quite to fury
aud bent her thoughts on speedy ven-
geance. She has declared war on the
Secretary and will make his position
about as pleasant as that of a
dog in a steel-trap. The msdam has
the ear of ULYSSES and if he don't heed
will pull it, as she has a clear matri-
monial right to do. And so Mr.. BOUT
WELL will find powerful force, drawing
in an opposite direction to that OF the
ring which he is popularity supposed to
have put into the Presidential nostrils'
Between the two, how full of peace and
pleasantness must be the days of ULYs-
] sEs.

4 Nice Novelty.

A French bathing dress for females
is thus described: Something tight
and short, not lower than the knee, and
clasping the figure with equal grace
and frmness." Imagine the effect of
water upon that sort of costume, in de-
veloping the fine points of the female
figure. The light and airy displays OF
the blonde nudities of the burlesque
opera would be harmless and prudish
in comparison.

EAGLES, the beautiful bird just chosen
from Wilmington, North Carolina, to
represent that city in the Legislature, is
colored fowl, of substantial, jet

help to tear out he vitals of the "Old
Pine State" whose safety the American
Eagle no longer preserves. For where
the carcass is, there will the Eagles be
gathered together.

THE Whisky Manufacturers at their
National Convention in New York will
recommend that the tax on whisky be
doubled. They pretend that a much
heavier tax could be collected as easy
as the present one. They don't mean it
Their idea is to have the tax raised, but
not to tax their stock on hand, which
wonld be putting into their Fockets an
immense sum of money. Whisky being
taxed more heavily would increase the
price, and the increase would be theirs
