He OR SH-E-WHIcH.-The cour;
of Montpelier las just decided a very
singular appeal case. In 1866, a gen.
tleman farmer aged' twenty-three, and
named Darbouse, married Anne
Jumas, age twenty-five. For two
years the couple lived together, when
the husband demanded TIN, marriage
to be nullified as his ~so-cal.'ed wife
belonged to the male sex. Anne,
however, objected; alleged that such
objection should have been made two
years ago, but declined to submit t.
the decision of jury of matrons, as
she produced a properly signed medi-
cal certificate that she belonged to the
fair sex. Doctors differed of course.
The Galens of Paris documentarially
decided without seeing the lady, it
would seem, that she was not q wo-
man, and had never been, or could
ever become one. The court ruled
that Anne was mistaken as to her be-
ing a woman, and broke the marriage.
1t is for the census commissioners to
decide under which of the columns
male or female-ex- Mandame OAR
bouse is is TO be classed.

Mr.. LEWIS, a somewhat unsophisti-
Gated Senator from Virginia, the other
day ~innocently made an amusing ex-
pesure of the manner in which secret
bargains are effected in regard to leg
islation. He complained that Senator
Cameron had promised him that if he
would withhold an amendment adj
verse to the Baltimore and Potomac
railroad bill, he (Cameron) would help
him get through the Orange and Alex
andria bill. Cameron had failed to
keep his promise, and Lewis was
much astonished when the Senate
laughed at him for making public his
scandalous attempts at log rolling.

JUsT before Congress adjourned on
the 10th inst, the infamous Ku Klux
bill, giving Grant the power to sus-
pend the writ of habeas corpus and
control the elections In the South by
force, was tackled on as an amend
ment to the Civil Service appropria-
ton bill, and passed, all the Demo-
Gratis and one Republican, an honor
able exception, voting with the minor
ty. The object of this bill is to enable
Grant to ride rough-shod into power,
over the PROSTATE necks of eight mill
lions of white slaves in the Southern
States.

when she threw down her shovel and
they got on the cars, went to Port

THE Bloomfield Democrat says:
The ofice-holding press, 0 fthc radical
persuasion, is teeming with the pro-
duction of some hired penny-a-liner
in the service of the administration,
IN the effort to prove that the Repnb-
lican party is the standard-beare of
eisilization and national progress. It
is perhaps needless to remark that
broken promises, nepotism, theft,
usurpation, and other prominent Re
publican traits, are not alluded to in
the least 10 this address.

GRANT As A GIFr.GRABRER.

Extract from Knpatrick's Boston speech
I am speaking here tonight of Gen.
Grant, not as soldier but as politician,
and as l extolled him as a soldier, / de-
nounce him as a statesman. Gentlemen,
the partisans of Gen. Grant are not able to
palliate the grave wrongs perpetrated by
this man, though they seek to screen him
behind his military record. We ask for
civil service reform and they shout back,
t'the battle of the Wilderness We tell
them that he has disgraced our government
abroad and they scream out, che has re-
ceived the sword of Lee at Appomattox
Court House," Mr., Blaine said in a
speech in this State, lately, that nobody
but mean, sneaking copperheads accused
General Grant Of gift-taking, and they
ought to be tarred and feathered. Charles
Sumner, the noblest American of Us all, has
made charges against the President: ought
be to be tarred and feathered? Carl Schurz
our noble German citizen, and Senator
Trumbull have made the same charges.
Ought they to be tarred and feathered? |
will make but four charges, and when /
get through you may tell me whether l
ought TO be tarred and feathered. First of
all would speak of A. T. Stewart, who
signed ten thousanda dollars to help buy
General Grant house, and was appointed
Secretary of the Treasury. / do not say
that be gave the money for the office;
/ only establish the fact that he
gave money and was appointed to the Office,
and when told that it was impossible, Gen.
Grant had the modesty to ask that the law
might be abolished to please him; second
ly, of Mr.. Borie, Of Pennsylvania, social
statesman of whom nobody ever heard uA-
til he was nominated to Office. He gave
five thousand dollars to help buy house,
and be got an Office; thirdly, of Gen.. Dan.
Butterfeld, of ''Black Friday" notoriety.
He was chairman Of a committee which
went on to Washington to present Gen.
Grant with $780, 900, and he was appointed
to the New York Sub Treasury. Lastly,
1 would merely anude to honest (2) Tom
Murphy,
