A sweet Picture.


ITOm tHe GObl.l
President Grant is pensive at Long
Branch. When last seen he was sitting
thoughtfully, or at least silent, upon the
sands, the gentle surf breaking in quiet
ripples at his feet, the moonlight glane-
ing on the scarcely stirred surface of the
Atlantic, and the smoke from his cigar
mingling with the evening mist that lin
gered after the sunset. The Hon Tom
Murphy was by his side, but did not in
terrupt the apparent meditation, and
near at hand were few select friends,
also pensively ruminating over the
troubles in New York and mosquito
prospects of the season. 1t is quiet
scene, and one pregnant with sugges-
tons for poet and painter. The Presi
dent is now disenthralled from the vexa-
tious WEAKNESS Of official labor which
wore upon him at the capital, and seeks
this quiet spot, not yet invaded by pleas
uring throngs, to bend the energies
of his mind to the calculation of the
problem of the Presidential succession.
AS he smokes on the sea sands at moon
rise, surrounded by his tried and disin-
terested friends of the New York Gus
tom-house, the picture is one of such dig
nifty and solemn interest that we look on
it with admiration, and hope that the
coming of no daily Tribune or other
hostile influence will disturb the serene
confidence in his coming honors which
the Chief Magistrate involves from his
meditations with the aid of his friend
Murphy.

MnfrimnninI Romance.
From the st. Louis Republican,

From the st. Louis Republican,
In this practical age, when men are
said to love nothing better than making
money, and women to love nothing bet
ter than spending it, there is something
refreshing in meeting with one of those
old-time, romantic attachments, in which
affection outweighs all material consid-
erations. 1t has been so often asserted
that love has now nothing to do with
marriages, that it has become sort of
truism. Nevertheless, facts speak louder
than words, and occasionally incidents
transpire which show that under all its
cold, selfish exterior, the human heart
remains in its affections unchanged.
Such an incident has just occurred in
this city. Fifteen years ago a couple
were united in matrimony, and after
some time it appeared that the husband
was inclined to be dissipated, and as
years passed by he became worse.
Quarrels arose between him and his
wife, and at length they became so es-
tranged that she obtained divorce,
after eleven years of married life. She
remained single year, and then mar
ried again, removing with her second
husband to Kansas. She had three
children at the time of her divorce, and
afterward another from the second mar
riage. While in Kansas her second hus-
band died, and she returned to St. Louis
Here she met her first husband who
still entertained for her the old affection
He had greatly reformed in his habits,
and again he became suitor Cor her
hand. She consented to entrust her
happiness with him a second time, and
they were remarked yesterday morning
with appropriate rejoicings.

How the Jews are Prosecuted.

According to the Breslauer Zeitung-
the Imperial ukase prescribing a change
of costume to the Jews in Poland has
not met with as ready obedience as was
expected. The long coats have indeed
been easily disposed of; whenever the
owners refused to shorten them the po-
lice obligingly took the task off their
hands. The curls have undergone simi-
lar treatment. But as the myrmidons
of the law are not as skillful in handling
the needle as the shears, the trousers
have for the most part remained as short
as before. The provision exciting most
resistance is that ordering the chin to be
shaved; BARRIERS work seems a tieklish
matter for policemen to undertake; the
Jews on the other hand venerate their
boards almost as a sacred thing; they
would as soon think of cutting their
throats as their boards. The War
saw police still allow the latter, shun-
ming an application of force as
apt TO produce disturbances; but

The Negro strike.

From the New York Express.
"When the cats away the mice will
play" and it seems, now that the Ad-
ministration has gone into summer quar-
ters, the pet lambs at the capital are be-
coming somewhat frisky, and have un-
dertook to run the Government Of Wash
ington on their own hook. 1t was thought
Tuesday that the negro demonstration
against the white laborers was ended,
but it seems Sambo is bent on further
mischief, and the employment of white
men at less rates than the manhoods
demanded has made him turbulent.
Tuesday, gang of three hundred, arm
ed with stones and clubs, and the inevi-
table razor, marched down upon the
laborers in the cityof Washington and or
dered them to cease work or they wouldn't
leave one alive to tell the tale. AT this
juncture the police were reinforced by a
mounted squad, but the rioters still re-
fused to leave. Five of the ringleaders
were then taken into custody and locked
up. The crowd then moved off, but soon
in another quarter and
threatened to smash things generally If
the whites were allowed TO work. So
strong did the force get that the city
ordered the whole to cease
thus substantially surrendering to the
negro rioters. Ku-Klux law reigns su-
preme in the Federal Capital. The ne
groes, in fact, have taken the city; and
while the Government is distributed
along the route between Long Branch
and West Point-while the troops of the
nation are down South electioneering
for the "best Government" etc.-the
poor down-trOdden African is mob
bing the citizens Of the capital and in
a Congo-Guinea rule, with a
success that threatens 70 run into a regu-
lar African Commune.

MEMPHIS TENN: FRIDAY EVENING JUNE l6 1871

in provincial towns a crusade has
been ordered against them. At
Goica the police began the campaign by
an experiment on an old man of about
eighty, who was per force spoiled of his
beard in the public market place. The
old mans cries speedily attracted num-
bers Of fellow-creedsmen anxious to res
cue their Nestor. No better opportunity
could have been desired. AS fast as the
men arrived they were seized, forced into
chairs, and shaved in rather too hurried
and rough manner to be pleasant.
The lamentations of the helpless victims
are described as touching. The authori-
ties are, however, nightly pleased with
their success, and are said to intend
adopting the same method in other
towns, until the law imposed by the pa
ternal government shall have been every.
where complied with.

She has wrinkles and roguish curls;
Her teeth have that CHASTITY glitter
You see. they are borrowed pearls.
On her cheeks is stain of crimson,
An autumn of hectic red;
And under. in the hollows,.
The summer roses lie dead.
She sits in the window embrasure,
Angular, acid, and lean;
She smiles with a bitter sadness
Upon the joyous scene.
A crush of pleasure, n talking,
A laughing, dancing. shrieks
OF half-heard singing-a party,
One crosses to her and speaks.
A sardonic and world-worn visage,
Cold. with frozen sneer,
Breaking in icy derision
To meet her and greet her here.
Are they talking of youth. my darling.
OF love long Knocked away?
Let us make up that quarrel
We had the other day.
Let us sit in the window-embrasure,

The ideal marriage is thus described
by a young lady of st. Lous: A mole
eule of oxygen roaming lonely through
space, seeking for its mate, but finding
none, of a sudden, in some hidden nook
it discovers a molecule of hydrogen,
when lol there is a rush, an embrace,
and there is neither any more oxygen or
hydrogen, but a diamond drop of dew
reposing on the bosom of the lily" But
when she added that she herself was a
moleoule Of hydrogen, the only respons-
i've rush on the part of the moleeule was
toward the door.

Horace Greeley complains of the bad
water of Texas. He says that State
wants ten million panes Of glass and ten
thousand glaziers to set them. She
wants fifty thousand cooks, twenty thou
sand school teachers, ten thousand
raisers of milk and berries between
Houston and Galveston. He adds that
there are a hundred such enterprises
waiting men to develop them. 7xssr,s
