A rumpus occurred in the recorders court Of
the Second District yesterday afternoon, 10
which Recorder Gsstinel himself, and special Off
Ger John Doucey participated. The origin of the
difficulty seems to have been an attempt on the
part Of the officer to make an arrest without a
warrant, although the complainant had already
applied to the recorder to make affidavit in the
matter. The persistency of officer Doucey, in
wishing to proceed in making the arrest, was the
immediate cause of harsh words passing between
the officer and Recorder Gastnel, the latter using
his cane freely upon the former.

The Judgments OF Women.

AS eminent minic.er Of the church,
once made this fine observations 1--WE
win says nothing Of the way in which
that sex us,tally conduct arguments; but
the intuitivc Judgments of women arc
often more 10 be relied upou than cOnclu-
sinns which We reach hy an ClahOra'e e pro-
cess Cf reasoning No man that has an
intelligent wife, Or is accustomed to the
society oC educated women, Will dispute
this. Times without number you must
have known them 10 decide questions on
the instant, and with uuerriug accuracy,
which You had been poring over for hours,
perhaps with no other result than to find
yourself getting deeper and deeper into
the tangled maze of difficulties. IL were
hardly generous To allece that they
achieved these feats less by reasoning than
a sort of sagacitv that apProXimatcs to
the sure instincts of the animal races
and yet there seems to be some ground for
the remark OF witty French writer, that
whom a man has toiled, step by step, up
flight OF stairs, he will be sure To lind q
woman at the top; but she will not be
able to tell how she got there, How She
got there however, is ut little moment
Ii the conclusions q woman has reached
are sound, that is all that concerns us.
And that they are very apt to he sound on
the practical matters of domestic and
secular life, nothing but prejudice and
seltconceit can prevent Us from aCknowl-
edging The inference, therefore, is un-
avOidablC, that the man who thinks it be
meath his dignity to take counsel with an
intelligent wife, stands in his own light,
and betrays that lack of judgment which
he tacitly attributes to her.

Why General Grant Keeps AlOOf from
r~ Andy Johnson.

IT is matter of surprise to many that
General Grant refuses TO hold any inter
course with President Johnson, and in
forgetfulness1 of not long past events, at
tribute it with expressions of surprise) to
political reasons, But any such thought
does General Grant injustice He is,
doubtless, as free from the folly OF per
mitting political differences to interfere
with social cOurtesies as any of us, who
find ii quite possible to eat an oyster,
smoke q cigar or drink q cup of tea with a
political opponent. General Grants an
tipathy to johnson has a better founda.
ton than this. 1t dates back to the Stan
ton imbrogliO, when Johnson substantially
accused Grant Of talsehood in his inter
pIetatiOn of some one of the phases Of
that difficulty. This touched The sensitive
soldier on a tender spot. A million men
might as they did, declare him unfi. for
the Presidency, without disturbing his
temper or changing the cordi.lity Of his
friendly salute. But TO be accused of a
falsehood was different matter Coming
from the President, he could not meet the
insult in a soldierly way, and 80 was
obliged TO treat 1t as an otfeDss to be pua.
