tanned, And yet, we believe that
simple justice to Mr., :. demands that
ht5 statement of facts be presentc, to
the people in order that they may
not be led es:ray by false presents
ton OF the matter. II these caitori-
al Hcaligners of Mr.. $. will bit print
his speech, it will matter little what
folly the editors may continue to per,
pctra,c. Unless these editors intend
to wrong him they cannot withhold
from the people his speech.
There, Bro. Republican, that is of
a piece with your wisdom, and how
do you like it Is it true that an
editor is q knavc, an intentional pre-
meditated knavc, who does NOT pub
l;sh the long speeches on either side
OF controversy, and is an honest
man and wise who will give the
speeches ana arguments Oh one SIDE,
only? Must we make up our jndg-
ments on er parte testimony: And
will an Iowa Republican editor seri-
ously insist that only one side shall
be lald before the people? THIS de.
nIand for the publication of Mr.. Uar-
lan's and the Presidents speech and
message, comes with very poor grace
from a paper which can find in the
Dictionary words hardly strong
enough to express its hostility to MIR.
Sumner, and which has not only not
printed his speech, but rs We, has Civ
Ell no tar statement Of what it con-
tains.

The People Ofthe Azores, and
their PeculiG rites.

Consul Monson. in his report to
the British Government on the
trade and commerce Of the Azores
during the past year, makes some
severe remarks on the upper c!as-
scs OF those islands. They are
gcncra'ly wanting both in energy
and in the desire to encourage
progress. Travelling seldom, and
isolated by their position in the
mid-AtIantic. they know but little
Of the advances Of civilization IN
Europe and America. The Moor
ish blood in their veins tinges
their habits and customs with =
Qnasioriental eXcluSivencss surDri-
sing and even ridiculous to Strang
crs, who find it hard to enter into
the exaggerated notions enter
tained by tho Azorians Of their
own Importance and intelligence.
Attaching an excessive value to
the prestige Of rank, and sensible
that under the existing system
prestige can be purchased by hard
cash, they vcneratc wealth, and,
as natural consequence, they
despisc poverty. This disposition
not only keeps them aIoof from
the poorer classes, but induces q
love Of boarding and an intense
desire to make and retain money
very prcjudicial in their effects
both moral and social.
On the one hand: it is the gen
eral custom to promote and en-.
courage intermarriaScs between
the closest relatives, such as be-
tween uncle and niece, nephew
and aunt, sistcrs-ln-law and bro
thcrS.in-law, to such an extent
that idiocy and en1ecbled consti.
tuition are unnaturally frequent !;
and this solely TO keep money or
landed property "in the family"
On the other band, 4 mean and
parsimonious style OF living, a
Srievous diSinclination to lay out
money for any charitable purpose,
and 4 consequential and disdain-
ful demeaAor toward less prospc-
rouS individuals. are biots in the
character Of the insular grandees
which cannot fail 70 attract the
attention of even the most surer-
tcial observer. The number of
large fortunes, which would any
where be considerable, but which
arc really large in so small a COM
munity, to be found in the Azores
seem almost out of proportion to
the population.

MEDICAL ADVICE TO LADIEs.-A
lady writes TO rs to know if We
can tell her what will cure ner.
vous headaches. Yes; "a love Of
4 bonnet:' we have never known
it to fail. y bridal wreath Of
orange-b!ossoms has. also, proved
beneficial. For debility, Il hand
some phGton is good; tor deprcs-
sion Of spirits, ar elegant SILK dress

rings cure the earache; and for
pain in tho chest. one thousand
dollars in cash, to be spent on
