We sec from our Columbia exchanges that

THE SITUATION IN NEW HAMPSHIRE

The Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Suo writes as follows in refer
ence to the political situation in New
Hampshire:
Senator Wilson again appeared on the floor of
the Senate to-day, having returned from his re-
cent canvassing tour in New Hampshire. The
Senator states that both parties are making ev-
cry cxertion for success in the coming contest.
Although four tickets are in the field, it is his
opinion that the general vote of either of the
two great parties will not be materially affected
from this circumstance. The temperance cam
didate is not expected to draw very largely from
either party, the labor reform party are all
democrats, and will consequently not affect the
radical vote. Mr. Wilson gives it as his opinion
that the radicals will carry the State, although
the vote will be very close
The Washington correspondent of the
New York Evening Post sends the follow
ing on the same subject:
Senator Wilson, who has been speaking in
New Hampshire, appeared in his seat in the
Senate to-day. He gives a very fattering &C
count of the political situation in the Granite
State, and says there is no doubt that the Re-
publicanS will elect a Governor and secure the
Legislature. Mr.. Wilson expresses freely the
opinion that the debate in the Senate on Mr..
Sumner resolution has strengthen ed the ad-
ministration with the people and made it more
popular than ever heretofore Representative
Schofeld leaves for New Hampshire tonight.
and several other Republican Congressman will
follow in a few days, to help secure the Repub-
lican victory.

SENTENCE OF GENERAL STOKES.

We take the following i'll reference to
the sentence of General w. B. Stokes
from the Associate Press dispatches, as we
find them in the Philadelphia Press of
Saturday:
In the Criminal Court, Judge Cartier, this
morning, Mr.. William b. Stokes. convicted Of
having received moneys for prosecuting claims
against the government while he was a Repre-
sentative IN Congress- appeared on the opening
OF the Court with his counsel, who stated that
General Stokes had come into Court to subject
himself to such penalty as the Court saw fit to
impose. Judge Cartier said; General Stokes
the Court has come to the conclusion TO impOse
on you penalty of s., 800 and the costs of the
prosecution. / have been governed in NV ac-
ton by several considerations, among Then,
your uniform good character. your advanced
age and the request Of men of all parties in
your State that your punishment should be light,
IL is unnecessary TO a person of your intelE-
gence TO say more. Mr.. Stokes thereupon ,Jalu
the amount and departed. \ wrong imp, eSsion
seems to have gone forth that the recent con-
viction in the Criminal Court was under the in
dictment charging conspiracy TO defraud the
Government. Mr.. Stokes was tried under the
act of 1853, charging him with having received
money, while Representative IN Congress- for
prosecuting claim against the Government,
and the jury failed to agree The second trial
was under the same Indictment, and he, having
been convicted and paid the penalty, this series
of cases are ended, the Government abandon
ing the others.

AN EXCEEDINGLY SMALL MOUSE.

The Liberal Republican mountain in
Tennessee has been in labor for several
weeks, and the Democratic mulGtudes
have been anXiously waiting to see what it
would produce. After all their longing
expectations and wise cOnjectureS, 10 and
and behold! on Saturday morning last in
the city of Nashville, out popped avery
small mouse. The paternity Of the ami
NAL is unmistakable. Its striking resem-
blance to one who once represented Ten
nessee in the United States Senate, fact
that can only be ascertained by referring
to the rolls of that grave and honorable
body, leaves no doubt that he is Its father.
The Union and american and Banner
have been looking at the animal through
Democratic glasses, and pronounce it large,
well developed and exceedingly handsome,
and insists that no one but Grant office
holder can see it any other way ; but those
who have seen it''as it is, express the opin-
ion that it is exceedingly dimi-
nutive. and that with all the careful
nursing of its kind paternal parent,
it cannot survive longer than until the
first of May, when the warm weather sets
in. A number of clever gentlemen, not
very widely known, with one exception)
sympathising with the anxious father on
this interesting occasion, have associated
themselves with him as helpers. His men,
tai weakness leaves it a serious question
whether or not he would have been equal
to the occasion, without the aid of others
stronger than himself, but with all their
aid the little mouse cannot live-it is so
weak. At the close Of its brief and event
full life, it will be buried in oblivion, with
none but Democrats to mourn its depar-
ture.
We will observe in this connection that
this small animal is the first offspring of
its distinguished father, the ex-senator
above alluded to, Notwithstanding his OPP
portunities. His imbecility may, how
ever, be his misfortune rather than his
fault, as nature has certainly done very
little for him.

THE ASSAULT UPON QUEEN VICTORIA

All England was convulsed last week,
by the attempted assassination of England's
Queen, a brief allusion to which was made
in our dispatches. A rash young man,
whose name (O'Connor) betrays his ma
tiOnality to be that ofan Irishman, attempt
ed the act. His rasbness seems all the more
foolish, coming right on the heels of a
grand demonstration, perhaps the grand
est ovation ever given to Victoria. He
showed how determined he was in accom-
plishing his end, by scaling wall sur
mounted by iron railing ten feet in height,
which surrounds the courtyard of the
Buckingham palace. The reason he gives
for his conduct is, that he intended to force
her to pardon the Fenians who have been
with her sanction.
1t is probable that this youth will meet
with severe punishment. When he dies
the death of "a traitor, England will scarce
ly allow his grave to be strewn with flow
ers, as has been done for the assassin
Booth.
