THE editor of the Democratic luminary
in this city writes very glibly of radical
frauds in Tennessee after the war and OF
the horde of adventures" that shared IN
the spoils. He evidently has some infor-
nation not known to the public, and prob
ably received it from his employers who
were members of the loyal league and fit
representatives of the adventures" that
committed the alleged plumbers. They
figured prominently in loyal leagues in
those days, and might disclose some valu-
able information for the people. Cannot
the editor persuade his publishers to graf
ify the public curiosity?

Theirs Plays the Role Of Dictator Sue
ceSSfullY,

NEW YORK, September 6.-The Paris
correspondent of the London Telegraph
of August 25th says: eve had yesterday,
| by far, the most exciting scene in the As
sembly that [ have witnessed since the
| Deputies met in February last. Cues
| ton was dissolution of the National Guard
NJ. Meux made an excellent and practical
speech, very conciliatory, but not spar

| After VicOmte MeuX, rose Theirs, who
| never before, in my opinion, appeared at
such an immense disadvantage. From
the very first he went dead against ma
jority, and certainly two-thirds of the
Chamber, and almost without deigning to
offer any argument in favor of his own
view, he stated broadly that the EXecu-
tive alone was judge as to when, or how,
or where, or in what measure the Nation
al Guard should be disarmed. He was at
first almost hOoted down, and retorted, by
telling the Right Centre and the Left Cen
ire that if they did not respect themselves,
they ought to respect q man that they had
placed as chief of the executive depart
ment. This deplorable exhibition ended
by the curt declaration on the part of
Theirs, that if the Assembly did not on
his question vote as he wished, he would
at once resign his position. That man

even dare to transgress in such q way the
first rules of constitutional government,
seems alike incredible and incomprehensi-
BILE. If the Assembly could have tameIy
taken such fiogging, and, like so many
naughty children, submit to be put in
corner, and that upon a measure upon
which | deliberately assert that all French
men, except those who look to a revolu-
ton as the future panacea of French
troubles, are of one mind and may make
their adieu to all ideas of parliamentary
or constitutional government in Frence.
We talk much in this land of the eX-Em-
peror and his faults of policy, but l am
certain that in the most palmy days of the
empire M. ROuher, or any other prime
minister, would never have dared to at
tempt to command dead is not the world,
the Corps Legislative as Theirs did yes
terday. An impartial looEer-on at passing |
events in France must, | fear, come to on |
ly one conclusion respecting the present |
state of affairs. There exists among all |
classes a deplorable want of moral energy. |
The people of France are now divided in
to two grand classes-those who wish for
order at any cost or sacrifice and think it |
their duty to work hard in graphing with
difficult questions, and those who desire
revolution. Only by regarding the posi-
lions of these two extremes may the extra
ordinary problem of the last four months
be solved

SHARPENING EeGED TOoLs-The Mark Lane
Erprsss copies the following recipe for sharpen.

ut has long been known that the simples,
method OF sharpening razor is to put it for hall
an honr in water to which has been added one.
twentieth OF its weight of muriatic or sulphuric
aoid, then Lightly wipe it off, aad after two hours
set it On hone. The acid here supplies the
place OF whst.stone BY oorroding the whole
surface evenly, SO that nothing further than y
smooth Psiish is necessary. The process never in
lures good blades. while badly hardened ones are
generally improved BY it, although the cause of
improvement remains unexplained.
AT length this process has been applied to
many other cutting implements. The workman,
at the beginning of his noon spell, or when he
leaves it in the evening. saoistens the blades of
his tools with water calculated as above, the cost
OF which is almost nothing. This saves the con.
sumption of time and labor in whetting."

about horses and carriages. "Spec doea massa;

was told to go to the barn and "grease up" tho

while Sam was told to put the horse into the
buggy, which he did. The old gent then xot in,
but thought the dasher was rather sticky Is be

But what was bis horror to find that Sam had

rage was not cooled much by Sans remarking.
as he scrambled out Of the sticky concern, 'Goliv

The same darkey was afterward taken to the
village with Mrs. b., who wishing to leave a
short message with lady friend. and not de.
airing to get out of the carriage, told Sam to get
out and ring the bell. Sam got out and stood in
tne road, peering and gazing up in the air and
