no good result The ti-Mormon war, du-
ring the Presidency of Mr.. Fillmore, was con-
Quoted with all the efficiency possible at that
day, under very able commanders and with
almost unlimited expense. IL made no i'm
preston of any lasting value. The only gain
that came from it fell into the hands of an in
satiate horde of army contractors. And they
are the very gentry nowadays who care most
to see the experiment repeated. We believe
That our preseut finances 90 not warrant it,
and are quite as sure that no true interests of
the country require it.

THE NEXT PRESIDENTIAL BATTLE.

The next House of Representatives may
prove to be body Of extraordinary import
ance, for it will not only have to legislate upon
subjects of unusual magnitude, but it may
have to elect President.
The evidences of wide diversities of opinion
on leading questions become day by day more
apparent in each of the political parties
These diversities break out in the debates of
Congress and of State Legislatures, in the
messages of Governors and the resolutions Of
conventions, through the columns of public
journals and the speeches of private indi-
Viduals The opinions of the Western Demo-
cracy for example, are decidedly opposed to
those of the Eastern in regard to the proper

have ones political notions and
vote is well enough. And pOliti-
cal information with other that is
useful is desirable to have by
everybody. But politics is al
mighty poor prayer. And when
the belly is empty, shoes are WORN
out, and the coat in rags, you
would trade your politics for the

We have made these observa-
tions for the real benefit Of the
people who need instruction in
such matters; and to put our col
ored people on the track of doing
something for themselves, we
have shown the simple and cheap
manner of doing it. If your free
dom is to result in your becoming
a mass of idlers, vagabonds and
expectants of political favor for a
livelihood, you had better have
remained in slavery. Politics has
destroyed two-thirds of the white
population of the South; and if it
attacks the colored men, and they
do not resist it will have the same
effect on them. Neutrality-suspicious.
your right to dabble in politics;
but to do so to the neglect of all
other business with no hope ORE
ward, is q sin against yourselves,
your families, and the community,
in you as in white men. We are

Modern Young Lady of Fash
ion.

She lounges all day in the psrlor,
And likes to be daintily fed,
While mamma 10 down in the kitchen,
And papa is toiling for bread.
She wears the most exquisite raiment,
That ever was purchased or sold,
Displaying the cOstliest laces,
And cleaning with jewels Of gold.
Herparents slave hard to maintain her,
In elegant Incidence well,
They wear themselves out for their "dar-
ling"
Because she's the family belle.
She plays the piano "divinely,"
And screeches from morning till night,
With toss peeping out ether stockings,
And hair In disOrderly plight
Except when there's company coming,
Vain fiirts or male eoxcombs-and then,
She hides her improvident habits,
And charms the coarse" creatures-the
men.
A slattern at home, she's a creature
Quite often not TO be seen;
Abroad like butterfly gauds
Assuming the airs of q queen.
Averse to sweet womanly duty,
Nu AstUVE HCE 6t1fAA bOAt
She sets herself mp for beauty.
And scorns all the children of toll.
Quite useless forever exaeting
The service Of others to feed
Her vanity paItry and selfish
With gratitude not in her creed.
In silks hear her gracefully rustle;-
fTwas paid for by others of c0urse,)
She wears prep0sterOus hustle,
And hair from the tail of horse.
Her limbs are indebted to sawdust--
Slim sharks meath the same may be
found,
Her bust Is crammed full of cotton,
To make it look heaving and round.
Complexion and eyebrows are clever,
And nature resemble-in part,
Her teeth are nice movable fixtures,
The very perfection of art.
She talks, and she minces and shippers,
And utters opinions, by rule;
Exhibiting dubious graces,
Picked up at nice boarding school.
She wears not stitch on her person
Not paid for by Others-tis plain,
She'd certainly die of starvation
If helpless allowed to remain.
She practices soft impositiOns,
And stuffs herself up with coneeit;
We w0rship the sex-but must call her
A feminine loafer and "beat."
Her talk is the veriest twaddle
That ever assaulted the ear
She never can mention q rival
Without perceptibie sneer.
Her nose she's forever upturning
At others in insOlent sc0rn;
With hate she 10 constantly burning
To plant in some bosom thorn.
That very magnificent bonnet
Was earned by her mother who scrubs
The beautiful roses upon it
Grew out of q washerwOman's tub!
Her father that velvet cloak bought her,
By cheating patron IN trade,
Committing sin fer his daughter,
e That she might be richly aFrayed.
She speaks of patrician connections,
And Of her own noble descent
Her grandfather being cobbler
Kicked out for non payment of rent.
Her grandmother, bless the old lady!
Had nogie Of the family pride
She always took snuff from her pocket,
"a TIL in the town poor house she died.
Our modern young lady of fashion
In wedlOck is fearfully fast =
She mavries count--he's barber
Then he lives in garnet atlast.

General r. e. Lee.


and, as he held, served so faith
fully, the spirit OF Robert Edward
Lee left the clay which it had so
much ennobled, and travelled out
of this world into the great and
mysterious land. Yesterday the
expressions ofregret which sprang
from the few who surrounded the
bedside of the dying soldier and
Christian will be swelled to-day
into one mighty voice of sorrow,
resounding throughout our coun
try and extending over all parts
of the world where his great gent
us and many virtues are known.
For not to the Southern people
alone shall be limited the tribute
of a tear over the dead Virginian.
Here in the North, forgetting that
the time was when the sword of
Robert Edward Lee was drawn
against us-forgetting and fOrgiv-
ing all the years of bloodshed and
agony-we have long since ceased
to look upon him as a Confederate
leader, but have claimed him as
one of ourselves; have cherished
and felt proud of his military ge-
MUS as belonging to us; have re-
counted and recorded his triumphs
as our own /; have ext0lled his vir-
tues as renecting honor upon us
| for Robert Edward Lee was an
American, and the great nation
which gave him birth would be
to-day unworthy of such son if
she regarded him lightly.
Never had a mother a nobler
son. In him the military genius
of America was developed to a
greater extent than ever before,
: In him all that was pure and lofty
! in mind and purpose found lOdg.
ment. Dignifed without pre-
sumption, afible without familiari
Ity, he united all those charms Of
manners which made him the lido
of his friends and of his soldiers
, and won for him the respect and
admiration of the world. Ever
, as, in the days of his triumph
| glory did not intoxicate, so wheT
> the dark clouds swept over hin
! adversely did not depress. From
I the hour that he surrendered hi
! sword at AppOmatox to the fata
autumn morning he passed among
men noble in his quiet, simple
dignity, displaying neither bitter
ness nor regret over the irrevoca
BILE past. He conquered Us in mis-
' fortune by the grand manner il
0 which he sustained himself, evel
e as he dazzled us by his genius
= when the tramp of his soldiers re
!, sounded through the valleys o
Virginia.
Aud for such a man we are al
tears and sorrows today. Stand
