Strong Language.
Judge Abel, Of the First District Court,
New Orleans, in his charge 70 the grand
jury, few days ago, used this language:
Gentlemen, have slrssdy detained YOU
too long, bat - the Journals Of this city
are earnest in denouncing fraud and COZ.
ruption BY public oiscsrs, and ok Why the
law Is not enforced against them, IL h
proper to say that, with the present jury
system, any attempt to enforce the law
against official corruptions would bs b..
little more than farce. I am satisfied
that the officers Of the State and city have,
BY extortion, fraud, bargain and intrigue,
robbed the State and people Of more In
the last ye; : than every thief in The stats
for i've years. All, from the catchpsls 10
the highest officials in the State and sity,
seem to have, with . few noble exceptions,
been unmindful that the glory Of Ill
States consists in the integrity Of The
agents called public officers. The remedy
is the people only. They must elect on
GERS who scorn bad faith a. they would sx-
tortion, speculation and fraud, or 10 con-
tinue to see their revenue absorbed, the
people impoverished, and the Stats dis.
graced.
1t is only necessary to add that Louisi-
ana and New Orleans are governed BY the
"loyal party"

ity by his wisdom and .sagacity and
benevolence, hoeing sugar in Barbados
under the lash of Yankee overseer, or
crushing cane into rum to thaw the gran
ite gizzards which Mather and his theo-
logical brethren carried about instead of
hearts. Ahl How the ancient Cotton
must have mourned for marketable Qua
kers and the refreshing srumme'' which
came not. 1t is delightful to think how
he never got bit of the "spoyle'' which
his devilsh old soul held in delicious an
ticipation-- brother Higginson watched
fondly for his hogshead and dreamed Of
swallowing his half score of heretics in
pious punches. They would have made q
''rum cretur" Of the great Founder, in o
literal sense, if they had got him, but
thanks to the good steering of "R.
Greenaway, MASTER" they didn't get him.

WAR AND RUMoRs OF WAR.-Ths Indians
Of the west are evidently on the war path.
The tomahawk has been lifted, the hatchst
disinterred, and peace is out Of the ques-
tien. The fact that no corn has BEEN
planted in the Indian country this year 10
significant. It means bloodshsd. The
sayages have resolved to commence, It
seems, the inevitable war Of sxtermina-
ton with which fate provekes them to
their finale. These untstorsd creatures
are the playthings Of destiny. # they
could only be prevailed upon 10 accept %.
complished facts, they would submit to
the logic of events and cease to provoke,
by their msraudings and murders, that
species of retributien which leaves them
nothing but smoking villages and nassar
cred tribes in return. They invite con-
dign punishment BY their murderoas for
ays. They destroy al confidence in their
pretensions of peace. And what follows :?
Since the white and red man cannot live
together in harmony, the war Of raees 10
kept up, and little BY little the Indian ~
comes q thing Of the past, mere 2gurs
of interest in frontier history. The red
men Of the far west have now pat asids
the calumet Of peace, and We shall soon
hear Of sanguinary doings in that quarter.
"'Tis true 'tis pity, 'tis pity 'tis tras."-
ExcR.
North Iowa times. [volume] (McGregor, Iowa) 1867-current, 1870-06-08

Generally speaking, woman's mission is
to fill the relations of wife and mother.
Nor do we undervalue the Joy which a
maiden must feel when she can at once
love and respect. There are calmer and
deeper, but no more ecstatic, earthly
pleasures than the thrill of the hearts of
two who mutually love, and, believing
themselves to be made for each other, look
forward to the hour which shall consum.
mate their union, and from which their
blended lives shall fow in one groove, un-
til death has effected separation which
is only temporary, inasmuch a. beyond
fashionable society, where not to shine is
to remain unnoticed, and the consequent
attempt to display qualities which attract
attention, are not very favorable to the
the grave they anticipate q joyful reunion.
And not much cause for wonder is there
in the fact that women court such pleasure
for themselves, and, so far as modesty al
lows, seek to attract the attention which
may make it theirs. But not the less is it
to be deprecated that the means adopted
to secure it are such as, while appearing
to secure, do in reality interfere with the
end in view. Early introductions to
formation of those mutual attachments
where increasing acquaintance leads to
love and respect. The accomplishments
which cut figure in ballroom are not
those which sensible men desire in their
wives; and indiscriminate dancing, in
which members Of the different sexes pair
of, although mutually unacquainted, often
brings young women into contact with
men to whom they should be ashamed to
speak, and from whose touch they should
be taught to shrink as from vipers fangs.
And when marriages spring from such in
Productions and acquaintanceships, what
is to be expected but that they win
prove as unhappy as they were ipjudi-
ciously formed? The man whose love 10
worth having will not seek his wife
there, but in the quiet of home, where
he can observe her domestic habits and
become acquainted with her qualities Of
mind and heart Woman. Her Posi-
tion and P0rer.
