shows his value to the nation. During the three
years and a-half be has occupied the Pres-
Dental chair be has paid off nearly three hundred
and Jffty millions of the public debt and has re-
duced taxation to an amount that would be equal
to three hundred millions NOR! His value to the
nation has been sac hundred and fifty millions of
dollars If such results flow from stupidity, we
say give us more of it. II such things are the
product of rascality and incapacity we say let US
have four years more of them. An overwbel

=" Vhut 7 K11OsU about Democrats p
BY HORACE GREELEY.

April 5th, 1872, honest Horace Greeley gave
US the following information in the columns OF
the Tribune:
1.-THE Democrats may disintegrate the Republic
can party at any time by simple loyalty to the
constitution and fidelity to their oath to support
it. But this is exactly what they refuse TO accord
The controlling dnsnus OF that party is negro maze
and stubborn resolve TO subvert the l5tn artl-
Gle of the Federal Constitution. That party is
now an organized and formidable conspiracy TO
nullify the article in question. 1t is quite aware
that there is no present ground OF hope that the
article NAV be rescinded, so il is banded to DEFY
or treat the article as nulliy. 1t means to carry
nearly every Southern State for President in 1872

cable enemies Of their manhood and their pohti-

the animating hope of the Democracy to-day
In detailing the evidence delivered by Rebel
Ku-Klux in court, the same article SAYS:
at was part of the oath (Ku-Klux) that no
member should give States evidence against an
other. and that he should even swear falsely
that it was the object of the order to preserve the

so that they would not go to the polls. They

of their purpose 1t was understood that the
| Khan had &c, 600 members in North Carolina, and
that members should protect each other by swear
| ing falsely as witnesses and giving false verdicts
as Jurors. These facts are substantiated by the
testimony of those whom they implicated and
who had every incentive to conceal or soften them

Women and Marriage.

Every woman with any romance
or magnanimity has, so far as she
coatemplates marriage for herself
merely in the abstract, an ideal. or
some vague assemblage of high quail
ties which stands for such. She can
only suppose herself voluntarily link
ing her fate with another, if that
other Is a man exceptionally good OF
noble, or at least distinguished among
his fellows. At al events be must
be something quite above the common
run Of men about her. The typical
old maid has had this ideal, and been
faithful to it it NAV be for want Of
adequate temptation to Inconsistency.
Some women-tho charming women.
for example-have not been allowed
to keep their ideal They haye lost
sight Of it in finding themselves the
ideal Of some one else. Our typical
vestal has never been a charming wo-
man, though she may have many ex-
cellent gifts and graces. Women are
so made, happily for men, that graft
tude, pity. the exquisite pleasure Of
pleasing. the sweet surprise Of finding
themselves necessary to anOther's
happiness Cor being hattered into the
notion) altogether obscure and con-
fuse the judgment. They either for
get their ideal altogether, or think
they have found it in the very COM
mon place mortal who Is their choice.
But to some women this does not
happen The natural instinct to
please IS not strong in them. They
only care to please where their taste
and Judgment approve, and their
manner is cold and Indifferent in gen.
eral society. There Is a French pro-
verb compounded of resignation and
worldly policy which represents the
submission and destiny Of attrac-
tive woman. She does not want to
please out Of her pale Of sympathies,
and the alternative has no terror for
her. In fact, she has foreseen that a
single lie Is her probable destiny. 1t
is not at all necessary that this unat-
tractiyeness should have to DO with a
conscious want Of beauty. A beau
tiful woman, as color and outline con-
stitute beauty-but failing in be-
witching qualities-may repel admi-
ration by Indifference, and live to
glorify the sisterhood to which her
manner devOtes her; but it is the wO-
man Of commonplace exterior and
sensitive mind that is most commonly
left alone with her ideal. We believe
that almost any woman who is not
what is called particular" NAV
marry if she chooses; that is if she
does not speculate upon herself. or
share the worlds unfavorable view of
her personal pretensions.-BlacI-
