Tbe city of the victOrs-A Scene OF
Mourning.

From the Buffalo Courier.1
We are permitted to publish the fol-
lowing portion of letter from young
lady from this city who has for the last
two years resided in Berlin and is now
detained there through the @as;
BERLIN, August Is, 1870.
Nv DEAR MOTHER; What do you think
about tbsss fearful battles we are having
over here, and all for no Feeson2 War
it has lately; armies and battles which
before appeared as a dream have sud
denly become very real. Berlin was so
gay Ebep her soldiers went away; they
went so willingly and took leave so
cheerfully; and now almost every house
is mourning. The regiment called the
Kings Guards, composed Of the finest
Young men IN Berlin, left about two
weeks ago. They passed Ender our
windows, bands playing, flags flying and
horses prancihg, one Of the prettiest
sights have eyer seen; and now,
Of the whole gegiment, only
four are unwounded. So many
that we know by sight are dead; and yet
Berlin IS tne NlctOflOus city anu peOplt
rejoiee over their victories and seem
never to think Of their fearful cost. j
wonder if you are much interested in
this European struggle and get reliable
news. Perhaps you hear both Sides and
are able to Judge Of effairs much better
than we can. The King sends bis dis
patches to the Queen, reporting his vic
ioties, etc, etc, aud the city is illumin-
ated, the people rejoice; and we hear
the same thing is done Ia Paris for the
same battle. OF course we believe King
William, and l think we have reason to
do 50. There seems to be no danger Of
Napoleon's being wounded at present.
he keeps far enough away from the FIR
ing. We are all disappointed in Napo-
leon. Every one thought he had great
big plan of some kind, and was going to
do great things. Perhaps he did have z
big plan, and these little Germans, with
Little Fritz at their head, destroyed
il. Every one nos thinks the war can
not last much longer. Meta must suR-
render before long, and then the Ger
mans think q visit TO Paris will be both
easy and agreeable. Some great changes
must happen soon. / wonder what they
viii be. Your loving daughter, A.

NJ. bauer, Of Paris, has taken patent
for the manufacture OF steel printing
types. The inventor says that, with a
single machine and steam TO the extent
Of one nominal horse power, he can pro-
duce 5000 types in twelve hours, and
that while the faces are the most perfect
and more durable, the types themselves
are cheaper than those in general use.

There is a man in Terre Haute who
pays his wife a regular salary Of three
dollars a week to keep her mouth shut.
Every time she speaks to him, except
when absolutely necessary, he "docks
her one cent a word. He was out late
last Saturday night, and she took out a
months wages for his shortcomings,
and he finally had to agree to count L

MR. CuLLoM,s aPKEcH.

We publish this morning Mr.. Cul1oms
speech on the bill reported by himself for
'he better government Of Utah Territory.
The bill is certainly stringent, but not moro
so than 1t must be, II 1t ia intended to en-
for ce the Law against polsgamy. The real
question before Congress and the country
is not whether the Cullom bill ought to
pass, but whether polygsmy shall be pro-
hibited in the Territories Of the United
States OF not, and whether tho law now on
the statute book shall be- enforced or other
wise.
We have always doubted the expedlency
and wisdom OF any law which should aim
to bteal up existing families, however OBJ
no1ious their organization and example
may be. The cullom bill proposes to do
this, aud, IN that respect, should, wothink,
be amended. Let the Inv as regards the
past simply recognize the fact that nmong
aac number of so.called wires only the FIRST
one is a wiie, all others being paramou1s,
aud then leave them to settle tho matter
among themselves. But, as to the future,
let tho penalties and the means OF eufotc-
ing them be as stringent and abundant as
possible. It is debt which the United
States owes to modern civilization 10 pre-
vent this filthy institution from growing

emotions Of profound so1row throughout

to Dunton, Lake County, Illinois, where no
