The princess of Wales is described as looking
very thin and worn, with lovely face so full of
sadness as to be pathetic. She is said to have
lost in few years all the freshness and bloom
OF youth, which at the time of her nuptials were
the theme of praise throughout England.
The great English working-men's journal,
called Reynolds's Paper, thus announces the
death OF the last royal baby: 1--WE have much
satisfaction in announcing that the newly-born
child Of the prince and princess of Wales died
shortly after its birth, thus relieving the work.

LATE dispatches from Washington inti-
mate that naughty Ben. Butler has been
playing the very deuce with the peace of
mind Democratic Congressman covet.
They have been all the time in mortal
dread, for fear that he would pass some
bloody criminal code bill for the govern
ment of the Southern States, and their sit
uation is represented as being extremely
painful. To make the matter more unen-
during, just at the nick of time when his
services against Butler were needed, Voor-
hees deserted his post of duty, though he
persists, they say, in drawing his pay, and
all the weight of such dreadful response
bility was left upon the shoulders of Beck,
Fernando Wood, Sunset Cox, land other
shining lights of the party. Sure enough
the tempest came, and these men were
left to combat its fury, which they did, and
now the country safe. zr4usar

success, or if it was not acted upon yester-
day, it will be to-day before noon, the hour
at which the 4lst Congress expires. This
would place the Institution on sure foot

be able to chronicle the success. of the

THE REAL REASON.

Deinocratic papers, always ready to
trump up. charges against the Presidents
either Of private or official nature, are
sometimes interruptions enough to charge
that he IS untruthful. They say be.
Is untrue TO his friends and false to his
most sacred obligations. IT will not be
hard to trace the foundation for such a
spirit on their part to very different
source. 1T is not that he has failed to tell
the truth, but that he has carried out too
well what he said he would do. For in
stance, in 1864, when, by his superior abil-
ity and splendid successes, he was found
to be theman above all others to lead our
national armies to victory, and put down
the rebellion, he put his mighty forces to
work, and informed the gentlemen on the
other side that he would fight it out on
that line if it took all summer. Copper
heads in his rear and armed rebels in his
front Smiled kind of sickly smile" and
awaited the subsequent proceedings
praying, from the very depths of their
souls, that he didn't mean what he said.
But soon they found that he did mean
what he said, and that they might pre-
pare to act accordingly. Democrats in his
front began to consider a retrograde move
ment, and copperheads in his rear felt that
collapse was imminent. Anti-war de-
monstrations at the North became less fire.
quent, and war demonstrations at the
South grew weaker every day. Early in
1865, in the neighborhood of Appemattox,
under an apple-tree, the thing subsidized,
and these fellows, to a man, appreciated
what General Grant meant when he talk
ed about fighting it out on that line. He
had followed his first declarations too
strictly to please them. That was what
was the matter; and our word for it, they
hate him worse for that one declaration,
so truthfully carried out, than they would
for a thousand untruths, such as they fool
ishly charge him with now. 1aI
