The editor OF that staunch old
Democratic journal, the Nashville
Union and American, sounded a
clear, shrill note on Sunday morn
ing last IN behalf or Gen. Cheatham,
which will echo from one end Of the
State to the other. He calls upon
Democrats to stand by the organi-
cation. We copy his editorial and
commend it to the careful and
prayerful consideration of,every pa
tliot.

KISSED By MIsrAKE.-Au incident
occurred the other evening in Louis
vile which was quite interesting, at
least to one person concerned In 1t.
Our young and handsome Deputy
Clerk of the Council, Lewis Nc
Creery, was quietly walking down
the street, when suddenly a lovely
young lady flashed across his path
like startled sunbeam, soft pair
of arms were wreathed around his
neck, pretty face was thrust under
his hat, and plump pair of rosy
lips printed thrilling kiss fairly on
his mouth. The bashful young man
"felt all over in streaks' for a mo-
ment, but recovered himself when
the young lady drew back, blushing
and trembling, and timidly hiding
her face with her hands, begged to
be excused for mistaking him for an
uncle. Think of That An uncle,
indeed? But notwithstanding the in
sinuation, the young deputy felt un-
der so many obligations to the lady
for her mistake that he accepted the
apology and gallantly offered to ex-
cuse her if she would repeat the out
rage. She couldn't see the necessity
of that, however, and he sauntered
homeward to dream of soft-armed
and rosy-lipped angels--and their
uncles.

THE FRENCH LOCAL.

Is the American local to be surDass-
ed by the French so soon after the
late war? 1t seems so. to Judge from
the following story, in which probabil-
ity and possibility are so well mixed,
that one cannot doubt while he reads.
but is obliged TO dos when he reflects:
1t does not always follow that "the
cure bad as it may be, rs worse than
the disease" The other day an elder
ly and very corpulent gentleman, ac-
companied by very pretty young Ia
dy, in passing along the Boulevard
Beaumarchais, suddenly fell, and at
the same moment the young lady was
observed to draw a glittering weapon
and repeatedly stab the PROSTATE and
helpless victim. Of course, an excited
crowd gathered around the pair. The
young lady was seized, and found to
have been armed with a pair of sharp
scissors, while the elderly party was
very naturally covered with blood.
Mute, motionless. and with a gentle
air of innocence and terror, the young
lady gazed upon the circle of enraged
faces. Presently the old gentleman
revived, smiled blandly on the crowd.

explained. He was subject to apo
plectic fits, and never went oct unac-
companied by his dear niece, then
present, who saved his life whenever
a fit came on. by freely bleeding him
with her scissors. Tableaul Old gentle
man and neice depart in a carriage amid
cheers.

STILL THEY CoME.-Radical steal
ing seems to be chronic ailing. De-
falcations are of daily occurrence
among Radical officials, but the Radi-
cal papers are so engrossed with
Tammany that they can give them no
attention. 1t appears that an "irreg-
ularity" has been discovered in the
Office of the Collector of Internal
Revenue III Baltimore. The amount
of the defalcation is not stated, and
efforts are being made to "hush it up"
A delegation of Baltimore Radicals
have visited Washington to "settle
with the Government" and it is very
likely that all will be made lovely by
"a fair divide" with the Washington
officials.
The Pension Agent at Philadelphia
is found among the "unfortunates. y
His defalcation amounts to from $780,
900 to $50, 900; and he, too, isnegotia-
ting settlement" whereby he can,
like burglars and bank thieves, re-
tain large share Of his stealings and
escape punishment, by dividing with
the Government officers.
No less than eleven Texas officials
are found to be in the same box, and
these are said to be but forerunners
of others of the same sort.-Patriot

Washington Correspondence to the Tribune. ]
THE IMPEREALIST WIsANGLE.
Sumner su,lsy and Grant Firm

The efforts to reconcile the Presi-
dent and the most prominent OF the
disaffected Republican Senators have
finally been abandoned. Those who
were most active in this movement
feel considerably disappointed at
their lack of success, and think that
good opportunity to heal the most
embarrassing dissentions in the Re-
publican party has been allowed to
pass. They urged that, in view of
the late successes Of the Republican
party in the State elections, and its
acknowledged strength with the peo-
pie, the President could afford to be
magnanimous, and make the first ad-
vances toward reconciliation
Much Of the bitter feeling, they said,
was the result OF misunderstanding
or Of mistakes which the President
has since, by his actions, if not by
direct declaration, admitted to be
such, and done something 10 correct;
and now Gen. Grant might forget the
past without any danger of having
his motives misunderstood and make
friends Of those who have always
been looked upon as the leaders Of
the party. The greatest efforts, as is
already known, were directed TO the
bringing together OF Sumner and the
President, but those who approached
the latter found him immovable. The
President disclaimed ever having
taken part in any movement to i'm
pair the influence Of the Massachu-
sets Senator, in the Senate or else
where, and said that he had no share
i'll the removal, last Spring, of Sum
ner from the cbairmanship Of the
Foreign Relations Committee; but
be thinks that Sumner has done more
10 injure him than any other hun
dred men ever did. and, in perfect
harmony with his character, as gen.
orally understood, is too obstinate to
make any move toward peace. The
President IL reported TO feel most
sorely remark attributed to Sum
ner, and extensively published last
Summer, that Gen. Grant was the
Lowest man who ever occupied the
Presidential chair" Sumner, on the
other hand. feels indignant at the
treatment which he has received at
the hands of the President, or OF
those who are supposed to represent
him; but while he asked no one to
assist in returning him to his old
committee, aud while no position
which could be conferred on him
would make him approve much of
the Presidents policy. generous
treatment at the hands of those Sen
ators who are understood to repre-
sent Gen. Grants wishes, would
doubtless have removed some of the
feeling on both sides. But when the
Senate was carefully canvassed and
only seven of those who stood by
Sumner last Spring were found
ready to vote for his restoration,
though it was thought that major
ity would favor it, if they believed it
could he done, it was seen that fur
ther effort was useless.

THE PUBLIC DEBT.-We hear a
great deal said about maintaining the
public credit, and heartily endorse
all that may be properly urged in that
direction; but it is difficult to know
how we ought to stand with our cred
itors, until We ourselves know what
we have got in the Treasury, and
how much we are in debt. The
statement of Mr.. Boutwell,, in Con
gress, that we had paid "over thou
sand millions of the debt in less than
three years." is confronted with an
other, at Cincinnati, which shows only
sixty-five millions reduction in five
years and four months, and these are
followed by third, (,he public debt
statement for Oct..) stating that near
ly s205 100000 have been paid in the
last two years. The President, Cabi-
net, and their assistants being absent
from the Capital a great portion OF
the time, it is not expected that the
the public business will be conducted
with the regularity and accuracy it
would be if directed, supervised, and
examined by those selected and paid
for SO doing; but yet the discrepancy
we have pointed out is much great
er than we have reason to expect

CHANGING CoLoR.-In letter to
the Gilroy Adcocate from Clear Lake
the following occurs: "Here can be
seen the most eccentric freak that ma
ture has ever indulged in. i, In this
neighborhood there lives an Indian.
You may think there is nothing strange
in that fact, nor would there be, but
the change of color has been going on
for the last five years, and is without
the aid of operation or incision. 1t
began upon one of his hands as small
white speck, aud has continued to
grow and spread, dispelling the dark
and swarthy skin and giving place to
that of beautiful whiteness, equal to
the complexion of lady, until now it
is in large spots all over his body. His
hands are about half and half, and
show perfect color for pinto man.
] would have supposed it to be some
leprous disease but that the cuticle
looks to be in perfect health, and the
Indian is as strong and healthy as he
ever was. He is well known to many
hereabouts, and has been tor sixteen
or eighteen years"

How THE GRAND DUKE DANCES.

How THE GRAND DUKE DANCES. =
4 correspondent who processes to be
good authority on tripping the light
fantastic toe, gives the annexed graph
ic account of how the G. ID. '.hoofed

The first dance in which the Grand
Duke manipulated in his brogans was
the "Lancers,T Mrs. Gov. Hoffman for
a partner. As tripper of the 'light

the forward and back he did we'll

hind, and the grand right and left"
mixed him up so that he tipr ed out a
horrid oath in Muscovy Dutch; at
least he remarked something very en-
phatically, and General Mcdowell,
who was his Uis-d-ris, was distinctly
heard to say, damisizesacrebleukr

stretch, when the Counter march" oc-
Cured, the Grand Duke was all right,
though his hight rendered it necessary
for him TO take two or three steps to

rIrE MAN WITHOUT A BODY.

Near Glenwood, Iowa, resides Jas.
I. Anderson, aged 26. Three years
ago he died from his neck downward.
His head, however, is alive, and more
vigorous and active than before the
body, which it once governed, ceased
to be vital. At the age Of two.
James father died, and his mother
soon married again. At the age of
three he was tossed several times by
an angry COW. Shortly afterward.
while he was eating bread and milk,
rattlesnake joined him, and when
the two had finished, bis snakeship
made his bow and e.ired' At five
years old a horse ran away with him
and made for stable across the en-
trance of which was a bar. The
no rse rushed in under the bar and
his mother seized him just in time to
save his life. He grew up active and
strong. and was fond of sports. He
became q good gymnast.
James, at the time of the accident
that left him dead body and living
head, was II fine, handsome young
man. He weighed two hundred
pounds, and there was not a super
fuous ounce of flesh ON his body.
One afternoon, when ON visit to
an uncle at Glenwood, Iowa, he was
exercising on pole placed from one
tree to another in back yard. He
swung down from the pole by his
feet; the leather slipped and he fell.
He struck bis neck just where it joins
the shoulder. He was bewiidered
but perfectly conscious. His body
felt as though smashed 10 a Jelly
He experienced horrible tingling,
and when the doctor came he told
him not to touch him as his body was
broken to pieces. His neck was bro
ken; inflammation set in and all
thought his end had come. To the
surprise OF all, in few days he be-
gan to mend. He was shortly after
removed to his step-father's house,
where he still resides.
Time hung heavily on his hands,
and he resolved to learn to write
with his mouth. He accomplished
this, and as he says in letter to Mr..
j. X. Nutting. he soon "wrote toll
erable good mouth" He is now try
ing to paint, and hopes by this means
to earn something for his support.
lie has been, and still is, tenderly car
ed for by his sister, herself a cripple.
He speaks in the highest terms of his
step-father. who, though poor man,
has shown him every kindness.
His worst enemies are the flies
which buzz about his face. He holds
n leafy twig in his mouth, however
and manages to twirl it about in a
wonderful way and drive off his tor.
mentors. This case is without par.
allel, except that Of John Carter, oi
England, who was injured in a SINH
lar way, and who became a famous
painter.

SIT DoN'T ALWAYS FoLLow."-If
you beckon to a baulky mule, it does
not always follow. Ifyou see a man
standing in the doorway of the Frank
lin" or National" it don't always fol-
low that the he boards there. If you
see man running along the street,
"as though the Sheriff was after him. y
it don't always follow that he is doing
rushing business. If you see man
beating time at concert, and looking
very knowingly, it does not always
follow that he understands a particle
of music. If you hear couple dear
ing and "darlinging" each other be-
fore people, it doesn't always follow
that they do it at home alone. 1t you
meet stranger who asks you to lend
him five dollars, aud you lend it to
him, it doesn't always follow that he
will return it. If you meet a man
troubled with dyspepsia and rolling
his eyes in very sanctimonious way,
it does not always follow that he is a
saint.

A DUcAL CosdpLMRNr.-Whi the
Grand Duke was dining at the Mas

and lobbies of the hotel were crowded
with some of the fairest and most

We read in the papers that about
a year ago deaf ard dumb couple
in New Jersey were married. Lately
the wife gave birth to child, and
can now both hear and speak, but
we desire to say that the last-named
result would not have happened if
the young person had not been mar

p,ent, lest females similarly afflicted
should be tempted into indiscretion
as means of recovering theirs speech.
