THE Commune CONQUERED.

At length the insurgents of Paris are driven
from their strongholds, beaten at all points,
their army destroyed, and their leaders either
slain or prisoners, or endeavoring to escape
the vengeance whicL pursues them. From
the meagre accounts which we have by
cable, of transactions in Paris since the Yer
sailles forces effected an entrance, we gather
sufficient to convince US that the carnage
must have been fearful; that little mercy or
humanity was shown by the exasperated and
maddened soldiery, and that the deliberative
acts of the government and its officers have
been of q deeply sanguinary character. From
the time that the troops Of General Douai
entered, on the 22nd, success has followed
the standard of Mcmahon. The insurgents
sought bravely, but without hope. Streets,
barbados, fortified places were carried, until
the city was completely in the hands of the
government. The desperation of the Com
munists would have laid the entire city in
ashes, the women even saturating buildings
with petroleum and applying the torch. Some
OF the noblest edifces have been destroyed,

The town of vineland in New Jersey is in
some respects remarkable town. With a
population of ten thousand people. its police
expenses for the last year amounted to only
seventy-nve dollars; and for period of six
months no settler or citizen required relief
from the overseers of the poor. Within the
last year nobody has been indicted for any
fragrant offence, and the fires in the town
have been of small account. The citizens of
Vineland ascribe their freedom from the
troubles of other communities to the fact that
within their borders there are no shops for
the sale of alcoholic stimulants. That which
is good for village may be of benefit to
city, and large communities may find advan-
tage in copying the example Of Vineland.

The Cincinnati Enquirer gives space to and
warmly approves vigorous three column
letter from "a distinguished Ohio Democrat"
in which Mr.. Vallandigham's resolutions ar e
most numerically criticised. "By the gods OF
the Hottentots!" says the writer, 'where is
the man deserving of the name of Democrat
who, after due reflection, would make such a
sacrifice of honor, manhood, and personal
dignity, for the paltry pay of power?" He
then goes on with much ability to convict
Vallandingham of stultifying himself by sub
sequently introducing into his platform the
'dead issues" rejected at the outset, and of
making declarations to be found in every Re-
publican platform since the war a part Of
Democratic doctrine.

For ways that are dark commend us to the
Democratic majority in the last New York
Legislature. 1t appears that the "Code
Amendment" bill, gotten up in the especial
interest of Tammany, and which is now be-
fore Gov. Hoffman for his signature, duly au-
thenticated, contains provisions that were
never before the Legislature, but were inter-
polated after the bill had been acted upon by
both branches thereof. The Times pertinent
~ remarks:
"When things have arrived at such a pass
that laws affecting the rights and liberties Of
the people are deliberately struggled into our

by the Legislature, it 10 time for the people
to wake from their lethsrgy and begin to take
some interest in public affairs"

object OF their visit, and presented him
with vtry handsome gold headed
butcher, who grabbed him by the tail :,
swung him around, slit his throat from
ear To ear, and in less than minute the
carcass was in the water. Thereupon
he came forward and said there were
times when the feelings overpowe cred

attempt to do more than TO thank those
around him for the manner in which
such hinge animal was cut into frag-

doctor concluded his remarks, when the
machine seized him, aud in less time
than it takes to write it. the hog was cut
into fragments and worked into delicious
