TIE BEAUTIES OF THE RADI.
CAL RULE.

Mathiot, an honest, simple minded
old Frenchman, some years ago com
menccd the culture of grapes in this
county, near Butteville; becoming OLD
and somewhat infrm, he lately trans.
ferred his business to his son Edward, o
young man who had been taught tc
"prune and train the vine" and who
by his industry, has since managed tc
earn for himself andagcd parents an
honest livelihood. For the two or three
years that his vines have been produc.
ing. he has sold his grapes in this
market, and some of our townsmen
know him and will notice the Infamous
outrage that has been committed upon
him by the Federal leeches that infesi
this, our land. 1t seems that last fall
having more grapes than he had mar
kct for, hc converted some Of them in
to wine, and little of that into brandy
not knowing that he was violating any
law or doing any wrong. Some OF
the miserable spies hunted him out
and found that through ignorance, he
had not paid Especial tax" levied
by the Radical Congress.
States, where the offenders are wealthy
distillers, whose delinquencies amount
to hundreds Of thousands Of dollars,
proceedings arc generally squelched
by the judicious distribution of hush
money, and the record shows (as il
might have done in this case, had SIM
liar means been used) the simple, but
not to be investigated entry Nolie.
But this poor man, ignorant OF the
law governing the manufacture and
sale Of spirituous liquors--a law 80
intricate and inconsistent that the
Deputy Assessor who lodged the com
plant in this case, and who il now
serving his second term in that capac-
ity, publicly says - he does not under
stand sufficiently to define the rights
and liabilities of those doing business
under it.. because of his igi ORANGE oi
his liability under this law which he
had never seen, aud If he could
not understood, and further, because
he was too honest To offer bribe. and
mnni!estiy too poor to satisfy the cray-
ings Of the entire ring, whose fees de-
pended upon his conviction, was SEN
tencenced to-what? Pay the amount
Of the " tax" with rcasonale damages?
No-creFytLing he had ,ras seized and
CON nEscGfed; sold for the benefit of the
spies aud officers, and last week, to
complete the infamy, this poor gard
ncr was tried by Judge Deady's Court,
Mt Portland, and sentenced to PAY a
Ftsg or Two THoUsASp DoLtAEs AND
Cosrs, AsD DE IMrHiso:;gD, N TIE Corx-
rT JAN, Yog TIE TERN or ONE YEAR.
Language fails to express the indig
nation every honest man must feel at
the pcrpe;ration of this infamous act,
and all done III the name of Liberfy.
We have indeed freed the Stare, but
have wrought his fetters into man
aclcs for ourselyes.-.Sdiem Press.

An American traveller relates the fol-
lowing: From Detroit go westward
ho. In the railway car was he.looking
female, with green cotton umbrella in
one hand, and handful of reform tracts
in the other. She said every woman
should have spear. Them as didn tide
mand their spears didn't know what was
good for them. What is my spear ?" she
asked, addressing the people in the car.
is it to stay at home aud darn stockings,
aud be the slave of domineerin' man
Or is 1t my spear to vote aud speak, and
show myself the ekaal of a mani Is

UNFoETUSATE RICHMOND The de-
tails of the terrible catastrophe in
Richmond, Virginia, have now reached
us in full. The telegraph, usually SO
eloquent and graphic in its discrip-
tons of such occurrences, acknowl-
edges its inability TO do justice to the
painful subject. A lo.se number of
the Silizens of Richmond were assem-
bled in the old Capitol to hear the de-
cision of the Supreme Court of Ap-
pea!s in the case of the disputed May
orally of the city, and on which con-
siderable excitement had existed
amongst the community. Just, it
would seem, as the Chief Justice was
about to deliver the opinion of the
Court, and while the audience were
listening in breathless suspese, sud-
den vibration was felt, and the floor
gave way, in an instant precipitating
them to the basement, wounded, dy-
ing and dead. But few escaped with
out injury. Over sixty dead bodies
and more than two hundred wounded
and MANNED bore mournful testimony
to the terribleness of the visitation of
the angel of death. Unfortunate
Richmond . 1t seems but little
while ago that her streets resounded to
the warlilze tread of her armed and
gallant sons; but now the muffied
tread and slowly tolling bells, as the
mournful corteges pass along, are all
that greet the ear. The old building
where so many victims met an untime-
ly death is relict of the past. With
in those walls, hoary with the frosts
of nearly eighty winters, the eloquence
and wisdom of some of the most prom
inent of the trainers and defenders of
our ancient Constitution found eager
and attentive listeners. But those
were the days of Virginia's pride
Who shall say that the old hall, weary
of the present, with its political par
venus and reconstruction measures,
did not in sheer humiliation and des-
pair bow down its gray old head, and /,
like the ancient Hebrew giant, fall
dead mid it's torments. Press.

But for the lash that shades their light,
They were too dazzling for the light.
And wheashe shuts them all IL night
Tho Daughter oe Mendoza.
o! ever bright and beauteons one,
Bewildering and bcguil ng,
The lutte is 10 thy silver tono.
The rainbow In thy smiling;
Aud thine. too, o'cr hill and dell.
The bounding Of young ga1cllc.
The arrows flight aud ocean swell,
Sweet Daughter of Mendoza.
What. though porchancc VIC meet no more,
What though too soon We sever;
Thy form will nont like emerald light,
Before my vision ever;
For who can see. and then forget,
The glorics Of my gay brunette?
Thuu art tno bright y star 10 set.
Sweet Daughter Of Mendoza"
