Mrs. GRAsT.-Geo. A. Townsend writes: Z" We
feel the most perfect and serene confidence in the
spirited, handsome and graceful lady who is to be
the mistress of the mansion under General Grant.
Her education. parentage and social opportuni-
ties have abundsntly qualified her to grace the
White House. Her father, Mr.. Dent, was the pro-
prietor OF an estate and home comparable with
any between New Orleans and st. Louis, In those
days when that part OF the world contained the
gentleman planter par excellence. He spared no
generous pains to make his boys influential and
his girls accomplished. Mrs. Grant was the flower
of the family, and In her sagacity Of head and
heart she was probably the first person in the
land TO express sympathy and appreciation of the
quiet young cadet, her brothers classmste at
West Point She was the tried companion of bis
poverty and early struggles, and when the war
beresved her of him she manifested 8 constancy
of confidence in his virtue and ability which never
for one moment faltered. At the darkest periods
of fortune she believed In his stay, and fought his
praises in civil life as bravely as he followed the
Southern Cross In bis campaigns. Josephine will
have no larger homage when both Grant and Boz
naparte have mellowed into history than Mrs.
Grant. Unlike Josephine, she has submitted TO
the DEGREES of good fortune with blsmeess
modesiy, and republican womanhood has no more
exquisite example at this day than Mrs. Grant.
Der care Of her children, whom she teaches to be
selfreliant as well as obedient, and the domestic
and religious influence she exerts over her hus-
band, are not unobserved here. The taste of her
toilet, adapted to naturally graceful and stately
figure, has passed the gauntlet of the most in.
vdious criticism. 1t is with more reason than the
high estimate Of his high sagacity that people
predict of Gen. Grant a fortunate and happy ad-
ministrstion, for behind his magistracy there will
always be a home. ! make these remarks be.
cause wretched and scurrillous newspaper in
New York has lately undertaken TO speak of Mrs.
Grant as unequal to her eminence. Upon this
point the strictest criterion ia the land may be
satisfied. The White House will be honored in
her accession"

WHlTs VERSUS NEGRO.
The Conflict of RaceS--,-What a Radical
Editor says Of It.

From tho NsN bgryport Mass Herald I
Races Of men are always In conflict
whenever they come together. There
can be no mixture, That is not in the
order Of nature. If, as some believe,
all the races are of a common origin,
that origin must have been so many
millions of years back that to us it Is
as though they never had been one.
Two of the races show no marks of
progress, and these two are perhaps
the Oldest-the African and the Aus
tralian. No explorations of Africa or
Australia have discovered any evil
dences of a social, or civil condition
among those people above what they
are now. This is not so with any
other race. No other seems to have
been created or destined to live to the
end barbarians, except where a higher
race not only Lifts thefn up, but every
moment snstains them above that
level. With the Indians we find the
remains of a better condition enjoyed
by them bong before the. white man
came to their country. They reached
the acme, and had subsided before we
knew them. The Mongolians, too, Of
Eastern Asia, though they have made
no progress in thousands of years, yet
have a civilization of their own,
which, in some respects, will bear a
favorable comparison with our own.
In conflict of races-as we say, it
always comes when two are in COM
petition-tbe superior race oyeTeomeS
and roots out the inferior, unless the
former are so weak in numbers as to
have no chance of success. Such is
the case. In the West Indies, where the
whites are SO few that they may even
tually be driven out, as they have
from st. Domingo, unless arbitrary
power restrains the interior. But
where they have Aay chaneethe supe-
riors- superior in mind, though they
may not be physically-wil win the.

With the inferior, their language,
their blood, their features, and their
