Is it possible that lovely woman can be q
snOb 7--s there any grammatical feminine for
the word Almost all men, we know, are
snobs, from the pineal gland to the instcp but
we thought the real "female" moral cOnstitu-
ton solder and wiser. Yet, at a Convention
in Newport, last week, our warm friend, the
Lady Superior, said 1--WE have come to
Newport hoping to awaken an interest in
"the subject discussed among the fashion
cables who are here assembled, and who have
"mOre leisure to attend to this matter than
"any other class" This shows, we fear, q
deplorable lack Of fashionable knowledge. We
fancy that the merry making bellies of New
port, who give their whole minds to dancing
dressing, undressing, dressing again, bathing,
driving, flirting, dressing, undressing, dressing
again, riding, prOmenading, Concert-going,
dressing, undressing, and dressing again-we
fancy that these fair ones of various employ
ments, whom "the world calls idle" do not
care the ravel Of ribbon whether they vote OIL
not. Leisure to attend to this matterl Why,
can it he possible e.. that at. the Lady Superior
tender as her interest is in "the fashouables,'
thinks that they have any interest in legislation
except vague but somewhat passionate desire
for Free Trade in French fol-de-rOs! A
thorough victim of eunui might amuse horself

TIRGINIa,

The Richmond Journal repeats mistake
which we have already most emphaticaliy COT,
rected and which it seems discCurteouS anu
uncandid to revive. 1t assumes th2t lhh
TRIgUNE has had some agency in fixing l'ic
terms Oh which Virginia is to be restored to
self government and her proper place in the
Union, and therefore talks wildly after thls
fashion:
- Onr enemies SANDER us when they charge that our
marty wishes TO apply the ltest.oath, or 10 40 any
thing else whatever for tho purpose Oh Securing and ND
10 the prominent Offices the state IL Is not olce W.

psntant and unpardoned WHOSE lucubTaons are wei
coined into the columns the OF Legature, IN order
that they may throttle the state tonS'stu. riace
ths instrument in order the ratification ny s
eglslature OF tho Fifteenth Amendment or course ItS
nUepentan and unpardoned friends will make TINS bar
cain with TIE TRIBUNE. What is the effect OF fatlylnH
the Fifteenth Amendment but to apply INC same PlJ
pned 70 the southi What the Union haters lose by
ratifyng III They lose nothing; ana they gam eFei}
ni'fv orr state Constitution respect to the important
features OF free schools and equal rights
We beg The journal, once for all, to re-
member that it was the Congress of the United
States, by the action of Its Republican mayor
ity. and not The TRIBUNE at all, that
very recently presented the terms on
which Virginia Mississippi, and Texas,
NAV complete their reconstruction and
resume their places in the Union. Our impress
sion at the time was that those terms were
more distrustful and exacting than they need
be; but we accepted them without cayIi, and
called on the States in question to do likewise.
When they shall have done 50, we must insist
that no fresh exactions or distractions be
added. If The journal wished other and more
oncrous conditions, it should have seasonably
said 80 to Congress, which has power IN the
premises, not unseasonably to us, who have
none Its cavils now arc really objections to
what Congress has done and profiered, not to
anything done or profered by MS.
Is The Journal in favor of restoring these
States on the conditions proposed by Congress
in its latest action on the subject? II yes, we
aqe with it most heartily. If no, its difference
is with Congress, not with us. We propose to
stand by the action of Congress in good faith
to the end.

The strenuous efforts made in certain quar-
tiers to prevent the trial of William Varley,
alias freddy the Blacksmith" arc not likely
to succeed. Mr. Graham, the victim of the
robbery, has not left the city, and does not
propose to justify the insinuatiOn that he was
willing to be. bought off. The den kept by
this Varley was one of the wickedest places in
New York, and we are sure that the respect
able citizens in the vicinity of Chatham Square
most fervently desire that he shall have a fair
trial and the fullest measure of justice. The
confidence of his friends gives rise to a sus-
picion that there may be some jugglery tried
for his benefit; but we refuse to believe that
the judicial authorities having the case in charge
may not be trusted to do their duty without
fear or favor

From London we have a dispatch announc-
ing that authentic details of the war in Para
quay have been received. According to this
account the Allies have not attempted any Of
fenSive operations against the forces of Lopez
in the mountains. Lopez is described as having
occupied position so commanding that no
movement of the Allies can pass unseen by
him. The feeling in London is, we fancy,
generally in favor of Lopez, and inclined to
place the most encouraging construction on any
repOlt which tells for his side.

The political news which comes to us from
Tennessee may be taken as a hint that Gov.
Senter has already found occasion to distrust
a large part of his recent supporters Doubt
full as to whether the XVIII Amendment can
safely be trusted to the Legislature lately
elected, lie proposes to secure it in any event
by calling together the present Legislature,
which adjourned last Winter without action on
the subject. The ratification will thus be made
sure, and if the triumph of Senter in Tennes-
see should prove to be the triumph of party
hostile to reconstruction, the most virulent
poison of the victory will thus be extracted.

THE POLICE UNIFORM FURRY

. rroot stir has been made in he MetrOpol-
iton Police Department by the PRONUNCIATION of
an order reouiring members of the force to
ro.r their Uniform at all times, whether on or
off dutv. No member below Captain was ex-
cepted unless on detective service. Only in
their own houses, or while going to and from
public worship, were they permitted TO appear
in citizens clothes. OF course, so unusual
step created excitement, and protests poured in
upon the Superintendent; but he hau no power

missi0ners.
When the Board met yesterday, its table was
heaped with petitions and remonstrances. One
officer peremptorily resigned, deemlng the
order tyrannical and humiliating The
nressure could not be resisted, and the Board
made haste to modify the obnoxious requirement,
TO the extent that "any member OF the force
"will be relieved from this rule by the Board,
" ~ the Superintendent, or the President OF the
" Roor6, or. in the absence of the President aud

to repeal, and "order reisns in WarSa""

STOPPED Hrs PAPER-Many years ago
Mr. Swain, then editor of the Philadelphia
Public Ledger, was hailed at the corner of
Eighteenth and Chestnut streets by a very
excited individual, who informed him in the
most emphatic terms, 81 have stopped your
paper, sir" and proceeded to explain the why
and wherefore, all the time gesticulating
wildly, my gracious sir, you don't say so.
Come with me to the Office, and let us see if
we cannot remedy the matter. 1t grieves me
that any one should stop my paper" Down
Chestnut street TO Third the two proceeded.
Arriving at the Office, Mr.. Swain said: Why
my dear sir, every thing seems TO be going on
here as usual; l thought you had stopped my
paperR Then and there the excited gentle
man, whom the long walk, by the way, had
partly cooled, said that he had stopped taking
his one copy OF the Ledger. Mr.. Swain was
profuse in his apologies for having misundef-
stood the meaning of his late subscribers
words, and regretted that he had given him
the tramp from Eighteenth street TO Third.
down Chestnut. The gentleman went on his
way home, a wiser ii not better man, mar
yelling at the stupidity of editors in general,
and Of Mr. Swain in particular. Before he
left, however, he ordered the Ledger be still
sent to his address.

among followers, such fear among outsiders,
such serene victory over himself. Most OF
his wisest and ablest associates, men inspired
with the traditions of the church, and inspi
ring the faith of its members, are old like him

response to the elements of change and rev.
olution and recreation that follow the ban
ners of civilization and of democracy every

but it is truth by dyiner sight than any
that he possesses Devout as q Mussulman,
devoted as Romanist, jealous as a Methodist,
there is higher truth than he has mastered.-
the truth of revolution in the interests of
equality, of indviuality and of woman's indi-
pendencc. These are against him; these will

Curious Epitaphs.

A writer in the London Scotsman has
crop of epitaphs, several of Which are quite
fresh.
Here is one on person named Chest
"Herc lies at rest, do protest
One Chest within another;
The one of them is very good,
s Who says SO of the other?"
On very old mani
"He lived to 105 because he was strong.
100 to you don't live as long,"
On Martha Shell
"Poor Martha Shell has gone away.
ner wou ' II sne couid, but her couldn't stay,
Her had bad legs and baddsh cough.
1t was her bad legs that carried her of"
Mr.. Proctor's antipathy to medical men did
not save him from the common fate of hu-
manity:-
"Here lives John Proctor,
Who lived and died without DOCTOR"
On Professor Walker, who wrote treatise on
English Particles
"Here lies Walkers Particles
On Doctor Fuller
"Here lies Fuller's earth.'
On dustman:-
"Cease to lament his change We lust
He's only gone from dust to kust"
DIR. Chard's medical practice seems to have
been large, 1t not particularly successful
ssHere lies DIR, Chard,
Who filed the halt OF this churchyard.
The following is quaint mixture of specific
information and sentiment
"Here lie two babes as dead as Mis-
Who died of agonizing fits;
They were too good TO live with we
30 God took them to live with He."
On another babe:-
.Since was so quickly done for
wonder what Twas begun for.'
The maker of the following epitaph is clearly
ofopinion that Mr.. Jones's ruling passion
win be strong after death. Its profanity spoils
its
"HeTe lies the body of Joseph Jones,
Who ate while he was able;
But once DER fed, he drcpt down dead,
And fell beneath the table.
When from this tomb to meet his doom
He'll rise with other Sinners
Since he must dwell in heaven or hell.
He'll choose where he'll get the best dinners.
On a woodman
SIN Kent SO good was looping wood
And down fell from tree;
1 met with check and broke nv neck
And so death Topped offme."
There is no evidence that Jonathan Pound
was an Irishman, but his epitaph contains an
unmistakable BULL
"Here lies the body of Jonathan Pound
Who was lost at sea and never was found"
