Matrimonial Advances.

The Rev. DR.. Bushnell, in
his new book, 'The Reform
Against Nature, writes on this
subject as follows
There is one matter where a
genuine reform would accom-
plish more for women, as / YER
lily believe, and take them out
of the corner that now pinches
them a great deal more, certain
ly, than to give them the right
of suffrage and of civil office;
having, also, the further advan-
tage that it would give them a
more open way to the proper
woman's life, for which they
are better made, instead of TAX
ing them off into quasi battles
with men for points of prece-
dence and prerogatives of gov
eminent which do not belong to
them, and never can. | speak
here of q reform that takes off
or somehow loosens the embar-
go on women, as respects ad-
vances toward marriage.
The assumption now is that
women must be first lassoed
and taken, courted long and
skilfully then, and almost to
the death before they can ven
ture an approving look. If
they cannot be conquered then,
they must not be had, and they
must take this ground them
selves. On one side there must
be close fence of prudery, hard
as possible to be got over. And
on the other, the man who will
try must go to it bravely, which
alas for his modesty is likely to
be quite impossible. Full
three quarters of the men who
get stuck in their bachelor life
and are never married, are, in
fact, the most Unborn adorers
of women; such as never in
their lives can muster courage

The Law of Advertising.

In New York, the other day,
the law of advertising was we'll
enunciated. The publisher of
a daily paper sued the Standard
Life Insurance Company in the
Supreme Court, before Judge
Fithilin, for bill of $433, on
account of advertising. The
company resisted payment ON
the ground that they had au
thorized but one insertion. -
There was no proof, however,
of this. There was no order to
that effect on the bill, aud the
company did not attempt to
deny mat they saw the adver-
tisement continuing in the pa
per and failed to countermand
it. When an advertisement is
received in q publication office,
witho utthe number of inser-
tons marked upon it, or the
cest Of the insertion paid for at
the time, the publisher can
know nothing of the wish of
the advertiser respecting the
number Of insertions desired,
and as he can do nothing until
advised by him whose business
it is TO attend to the matter, he
can charge for every insertion
given the advertisement until
ordered out.

Protection to Manufuctu-
rers. At the opening of the re-
cent exhibition of textile IA
brics at Cincinnati, addresses
were delivered by prominent
speakers, among whom was
Judge Storer, an aged resident
Of that city. Judge Storer. in
speaking of the changes that
have taken place in the West,
said that when he was young
every family did its own spin
ming and weaving. The noise
Of the wheel and the noise of
the loom were heard in almost
every family, and there was a
noble pride in being able to
clothe themselves without call
ing to the East or the land
beyond the ocean for help; and
he thought that perhaps the
best tariff that can possibly be
imagined, or that ought ever
to exist, for the protection of
manufacturers, is that native
pride which induces every true
man to help himself, and not
to call upon Hercules until he
has put his own shoulder to the
wheel and endeavored to extri-
cate his vehicle from the rut.

Wise, Rector of Christ Church,
The policy was issued on May
18th, 1866, and Mr.. Wise died
May 18th, 1859, and the claim

CHARITY.

When you meet with one suspected
OF some secret deed of shame,
And for this by all rejected
AS thing of evil fame,
Guard thine every look and action;
Speak no word of heartless blame;
For the slanderer's vile detraction
Yet may soil thy goodly name.
When you meet with one pursuing
Ways the lost have wandered in,
Working out his own undoing
With his reck lessness and sin,
Think if placed in his condition,
Would kind word be in vain
Or look of cold suspicion
Win thee back to truth again
There are spots that bear no flowers
Not because the soil is bad, .f-
But the summers genial showers
Never make their bosom glad;
Better have an act that's kindly
Treated sometimes with disdain,
Than, by judging others blndly,
Doom the innocent to pain.

the two wings of the Republl-
can party there, President ex-
pressed regret at the apparent
failure to accomplish to desira-
BILE an object, remarking that
the letter of DR.. Gilmer in re-
ply showed that the followers
of Walker were not all in good
faith. He still hoped, however,
that good would come out of
Virginia, but did not at present
exactly see how. The CONVEX
sation lasted for about an hour
and a half, and during the
whole time most Of it was car
ried on by the President him
self. The utmost frankness
was displayed by him; and on
General Tarbell's explaining
his gratitude for and gratifica-
ton at the assurance given him
by the President, replied that
in his conversation with the
gentlemen representing the new
republican party in Mississippi
he had expressed himself much
more alphabetically against
their course and policy than
he was now doing. He declar-
ed positively that his sympa-
thies were altogether with the
republicans Of Mississippi, and
against all efforts to divide
them, coming from whatever
source they might. When it
was suggested that great good
might be accomplished and
much Wild speculation set at
rest if he would take occasion
to put the views he had ex-
pressed into some form and
give them to the public, the
President replied that he much
preferred that acts and results
should speak for his admins
tration rather than words. To
a question whether his atten-
ton had been called to the des-
patches pretending to give his
views on Mississippi affairs, he
replied that it had, but that if
he should correct one, others,
not denied, would be claimed
as admitted, a1d to correct all
would consume his whole time.
The President expressed
thorough endorsementof Gene
raj Ames' administration In
Mississippi, and'in reply to"a
remark made by General Tar
bell, said that General Ames
would have to do much and
more serious things than he
had heard charged before he
would subject himself to re-
moval. He endorsed his ad-
ministration fully.
The above report of the con-
versation with.the President has
been carefully read to the Pres
ident, and is published by his
expressed authority, and at his
wish furnished to the Associa-
ted Press.

An ImDortant Change In the Cuban
Army. ffEiis

The New York Journal OF Commerce
learns from gentleman whoisi post
ton to know what is going on among the
Cubau revolutionists that an important
change has been made in the com mand
Of the libersting army. Gen. Cespedes,
Preaideut of the Cuban Republic, has
taken the field in person as commander
Of ali the forces, and Gen. Jordan, who
recently held that position, is made cher
of Cespedes' staff. The editor says:
" If this statement is.correct, It possess
ses some significance II BY no means
implies the least doubt OF Gen. ordan's
tried and proved military abilities, but It
streuethens the revolutionary cause by
securing Gen. Jordan's valuable services
} in place where they will all still be
available, while it appeals with fresh
power to the patriotism and pride OF the
Cubans. To give the chief command OF the
insurgents TO foreigner-although that
forisuer is an American, and soldier OF
great talents--.seemed to imply want OF
military skill among the Cubsns them
selves, which prejudiced some people
against them. Probably one object IN
comforting so high an office upon General
Jordan was to increase the number OF
American enlislments, but this has not
succeedad TO the extent expected. Bat
few expeditions keye been able to get
away from the United StstSs ports since
General Jordan took commadd, and the
Cubans hsye been obliged to depend
for the lost part gpon themselves. Re-
Gently, if Cuban edyicss are to be
trusted. they have rallied in grss. pum-
bers to tbs revolutionary flag, and now
seem quite able to eonaper their heredi-
tary enemies without the ed o. A periean
soldiers. General Cespedes. BY placing
bimself at the head Of the army, may
nave intended to signalize this fact and
10 cause general rising OF the Cuban
population al oyer the island. Bat what
ever sympathy aad aid would have been
extended fron indiyidpals IN this country
70 General Jordan will sliil 90 to General
Cespedes.
