THE LOVE TOKEN.
I pray thee, my love, q token,

IT pray thee, my love, q token,
A token unto me give,
So I may never, never forget
Your sweet self while l live.
Thus under . maiden bower
A knight With q silver tongue,
In a manly voice 60 loud and clear,
On . certain evening sung.
Then the pretty maiden sighed g sigh
And jumped from her little bed,
And quietly took the kerosene lamp
Aud dropped 1t on his head.

THREATENED IMPEACHMENT OF CON-
TROLLER CONNOLLY.

The anxiety of the Ring to remove Con.

times have been set anoat that Mayor Hall In
tended arrest him for various oenses and again. TO
impeach him. The absence Of . number Of judges OF
the State Courts in Europe and tho impOssibty Of Oh
tanning full bench before which to impeach tho Con-
troer has been stated in explanation Of the delay. The
return OF Of these ocias on Saturday has revived
the rumors Of impeachment and 1t understood hss
one the gravest charges to be brought against Mr.
Connolly would be based the alleged violation Of the

New-York tribune., 1871-10-20

The curse of our "Refomers" by profession has
been that when they failed to find Cause" they
invented one. Wendell Phillips, while he had the
anti-Slavery battle to fight. though often unwise
and always uncharitable, was continuously superb;
but when, left suddenly without subject, he fell
upon the wrongs Of tho workingmen, he degenerated
into drivel. Butler did fine things in the war; but
now, seeking some hobby whereon to ride back to
his lost popularity he nvents the cause" of Labor
against Capital, and talks moon-struck madness 1t
is comfort to see that Miss Anna Z. Dickinson has
not found it necessary, even if she had been will
ing to resort to such questionable means for retain
ing the public attention. In her new lecture Ito be
delivered in Steinway Hall. on next Thursday, the
10Th nst she shows that she has not lost her head
because she has lost her old of inspiration
and that she can face the issues with the same
common sense and honesty she gave to the old.
New-York tribune., 1871-10-20

California elected, on the 18th inst, two
Supreme Judges, a Superintendent of Public
Instruction, several District Judges, and sun
dry local or municipal judicial officers. After
their late Waterloo defeat, the Democrats were
not in very good spirits, and the Republicans
have carried the State by large majorities-the
largest being 5000, which is about the same
as the majority for Governor Some years
since, the California Legislature, in a fit of
extraordinary wisdom, separated the Judicial
and School questions from the general cleo
ton by appointing different times for
these elections; but the contests are
as partisan as ever. and each party
has just put its own ticket in the
field. The candidates for the Supreme Court
are all able men, and the Republicans, A. L..
Rhodes (reelected) and A. C. Niles, command
the respect of all parties. A very bitter con-
test was made on the State Superintendent of
Public Instruction the Republican candidate,
Prof. Bolander, is naturalized German, and
the Democratic candidate was a Secessionist
during the war, which gave occasion to the re-
mark that the former was an American citi-
zen from choice and the other from compul-
siOn
New-York tribune., 1871-10-20

There is town in Massachusetts called Aver pre-
snmsbly after Dr. J. C. Aver the wcll-known maker
of medicines At any rate, the Doctor proposed to
give the new town the of S10,5OO, the interest
thereof to be devoted annually to educational pur-
poses Well the benevolent donor, instead OF being
thanked cordially by the inhabitants has aroused
tea pot tempest in town-meeting. Some Objectors
did not like the conditions of the gift; others
growled because it was not big enough; and finally
Committee of three was appointed to cali upon Or.
Aver and endeavor to get this money or morS with
out the conditions without guessing precisely Ow
the propositions of the Committee will be received,
we must be allowed to say that this is about the
coolest proceeding which has to knowledge.
We have heard of looking gift horses in the mouth,
but this is sQunt down the entire throat and into
the stomach of the animal. One would think Dr.
Aver to be the obliged party instead of the town
which is called by his name. We have long per-
ceived liberal tendency among the men of wealth
in Massachusetts; but we did not know before that
it had become so difficult in that State to give away
ones money.
New-York tribune., 1871-10-20

Worse trouble than that on account of po-
lygamy seems ripening in Utah. johnson,
one of the leading bishops Of the Mormon
Church, has been arrested on charge of muir
der, and the afidavits on which the ACCUSE
ton is based, published in THE TRIBUNE
to-day, make a very grave case against
him. 1t Is claimed that the Parrish mur-
ders, which created considerable excitement
at the time, were instigated by Orson
Hyde, one of the Mormon Twelve Apostles,
and Brigham Young himself. This line OF at
tack on the chief Mormon is indicated in the
evidence 80 far sddueed. The narrative is
certainly a startling one, but it remains to be
seen how much of it can be sustained in q
court of justice. That the crimes were COM
mitted by Mormons, however is tolerably
certain, since at the time of their perpetration
there were very few "Gentiles" in the Ter
ritOrY.
New-York tribune., 1871-10-20

The Democratic Reform Party made three
excellent nominations last night. Those Of
Geo. C. Barrett for Supreme Judge, and Chas.
P. DAILY as Judge of the Common Pleas, will
command respect and influence; that of Gen.
Sige for Register is sarecognitiOn of the conspcu-
Dus value of the German element in the move
ment among Democrats for municipal reform,
as well as of the fact that men who ask for
Republican support must make some con-
ression to the party whose votes they depend
upon for success. This last consideration has
the merit of novelty in Union Democratic
movements in this city.
