THE RESTORATION OF GLADSTONE.

, THE RESTORATION OF GLADSTONE.
The telegraph brings the gratifying
information that Queen Victoria has
found il consistent with her constltu-
tional duty, the interests of her family
and that of the British empire, to re-
store Mr.. Gladstone to the premiership,
which he had vacated under pressure of
party opposition on a measure that was
less a test of his strength, than of that
feeling Of religious intolerance which
education has not yet succeeded in wip-
ing ont. He was not defeated on. bill
tlat could 10y any stretch Of Ian
guage be denominated purely partisan.
Far from it. The change he sought to
make in the government of Ireland's
great university was one calculated to
satisfy the growing liberalism of the
age, demanding, as it does, entire free
dom from priestly interference in matters
OF education. He desired that old
Trinity should be taken from under the
control of the Irish Episeopalians; and
that hereafter it should be great seat
OF learning, freed from the trammels OF
religious bias. To effect this reform he,
as we think, ilI-advisedly excluded all
modern textbooks en- history and
mental philosophy. This was bait to
the " unco.righteous" as the exclusion
Of religion was to the liberals. But as
was to be expected, he fell between the
two extremes, and liberals who had
hitherto recognized his claims to their
support, voted against him. In this
view Of it, the Irish University bill,
could not be said to be a party measure,
or one that, following established pre-
cedent, would compel Mr.. Gladstone's
resignation, and when he succumbed he
did so less u that vote aud more to the
clamOr of opponents, who sfterward
were compelled TO confess their ina
bility TO form a government that
would have the confidence of the
people of England. We are not, then
surprised that after such failure, Mr..
Gladstone has been recalled, and that
the people who have learned to applaud
his liberality, moving always slowly but
surely, applaud the act Of their queen.
This return to the post of duty on the
part Of an eminent statesman is a re-
markable departure from British prece-
dent, but it is one fully justified by facts,
and that will receive the hearty plau-
dts of liberal-minded men every
where. Gladstone has nerve, pluck,
and above all, that quality so
much admired in observation-disclosures
He lives TO " cut and come again" gen.
orally profits by the defeats for which,
like a true philosopher, he is always pre-
pared, and no doubt will, in another
and, perhaps better form-may be in
one or even three years-fOrce the mea-
sure with which his name will 60 down
10 pOsterity as the minister restored by
almost public acclaim.

Sir William Comm, lightweight years
of age, has been made Constable of the
Tower in London. The post is gen
orally the reward of past services in the
army, and is held by retired officers.
These are always old men, and the sue
cession falls in rapidly. In fact, in a
little over year, Sir William Comm is
the third who has held the Office. Like
the Lord Mayors show, the Inauguration
oe g Constable of the Tower is civic
pageant. Wellington, Combermere Bur
goyne, Polk, have all held it, and have
ali passed through the same time-hon-
ored ordeal, aching, perhaps, in all their
equity limbs, and heartily wishing the
dreary spectacle at an end. On the
present occasion. the Tower Green was
gay with marching batteries, waving
flags and glittering bayonets. The yeo-
man warders of the Tower-profanely
called Beefeaters-were out in all their
glory Of Tudor costume, bonnets, ruifs.
slasned trunk. hose, laced doublets and
rosetted shoes. Lady Comm rode in
her carriage with Sir William, and
alighted the Queens Keys were duly
delivered by another procession, headed
by the Lord Chamberlain, and accepted,
and the Tower crown jewels, its ancient
armor, and all its musty records passed
into the keeping Of the new Constable.

Every one must have noticed the great
difference, as n general thing, between
the young beirothed man and the young
betrothed woman. He, the drawer and
stronger of the two. is utterly confused
and bashful, and seeks to make a secret
of the fact. She, on the contrary, tries
to parade it. is proud Of it, assumes a
certain air Of proprietorship over him,
and offers to her friends little delicate
condolences as to how nice it is TO he en-
gagged, and how dreadfully jealous be is
if she looks at any one else.
The cause OF this is just one thing;
the man is in love; the girl is not.
have studied human nature, | have
looked into the depths Of hearts, have
made man and woman the study Of my
life, and | aver that the girl in love is
rarer than black rose. She simply has
for her lover exactly the feeling that the
young mother has for her baby She
has an anxious desire to see him for life,
to make sure that he is comfortable, and
that his buttons are all right, and that
his food is what it onght to be- She
understands that he is in love with her,
and rejoices in the knowledge. The
idea OF losing his love is madness TO her,
bat OF herself she does not understand it.
A woman who is not selfish and greedy
and mean, who does not smile on any one
who can give her fine clothes aud
grand establishment, overliows with the
mother-feeling all her life. She expends
il on her dolls in childhood, on her poo
die, on her kitten, or herr canary after
ward, and, when the time comes, on her
lover Many man would lose a great
deal of his conceit and vanity il he knew
lust how the girl whom he supposed to
be in love with him really felt. She,
also, would be surprised to hear that she
was not in love at all but only delighted
TO have some one in love with her, and
in measure awakened to the knowledge
of that love which she will some day give
her children. 1t is the best sort Of love,
too, and when mans wife really loves
him as his mother used to love him, she
makes him happy.
But | think it is time that some one
who knows the truth should tell it. A
good woman's love is something to be
happy in-not the heeting gallantry that
man calls by that name, but pure and
high affection, and with so much of the
motherly and protecting in it, that !
have often heard little eighteen year
old woman say Of six-footer of two
hundred pounds weight, and Brigadier
General to boot;
"Oh, isn't he darling, cunning little
thing? just as sweet as sugar Aunt

GRANT AND CRUTCMFIELD.

WmaarvfeW.

An Interesfing and Instructive
Interview.
+, ON the Chattanooga Times. Dec. 81
Hon. VIM. Crutchfeld was interviewed
Yesterday and stated that when he called
upon President Grant the President
shook him heartily by the hand saying;
Il did something for you, Mr.. Crutch-
field, the other day which | have never
done before for any man"
How so, Mr.. PRESIDENT
''Why you know it is not the custom
10 allow Congressman elect to make re-
concentrations for appointments until
they have taken their seats, but knew
you so well and esteemed you so highly
that when your letter was brought re-
commencing Bard so strongly, just ap-
pointed him postmaster OF Chattanooga
on your recommendation.
"But, Mr.. President" protested uncle
Bill, I'VE don't want Bard in Chatta-
nooga He bores with too big an auger.
"Ahl" said the President, with q
curious smile, "dont yon think we know
something about that here2
"And then" said uncle Bill to us, THE
President and Butler and John Brown
low laughed as though they would split. :"
Then Mr.. Crutchfeld tried to make a
diversion. Said he, Mr.. President, |
have known you long time, and have
had occasionally to defend you in Chat
tanooga, and especially Against the
charge of being fool; and when | saw
in the dispatches that Bard had been
appointed to our postoffice | told the
people-that we had signed recommends
tions to get Bard out of the way, and
that we had tried to fool you, and you
had seen through the trick and had
turned the Joke on US. And the Presi-
dent replied, said Uncle Bill; Tint is
lust the reason made the appointment,
Mr.. Crutchfeld.
However we infer from what Uncle
Bill said that the President does not wish
to inhict Bard permanently upon the
people of Chattanooga, and that he will
allow the Senate to reconsider Bard s
confirmation.
We think that this fright, however,
will be lesson to those eminently re-
spectacle gentlemen wko signed his let
tiers of recommendation not TO presume
too far upon the folly or lack of judg-
ment in the man whom they considered
so prominently fit to be President OF
the United States; and it will be good
lesson to people generally who sign let
tiers of Recommendation to get rid of q
nuisance aud foist him upon some other
community.

A discovery which will be interesting
to literary men of the world has lately
been made at Odessa. Prince Woron-
zoff has found among the archives of his
family, which be is in the habit of pub
fishing when he discovers anything that
illustrates the history Of his country,
fourteen letters Of Voltaire, thirteen Of
which have never been published
though the fourteenth appeared in the
Correspondence Generale on the 26th of
February, l7Gg. They are addressed to
Count Alexander Woronzoa, who at the
age Of seventeen was sent 10 France and
entered the light cavalry school at Yer
sailles, where all the young mobiles OF
France we're educated. The young
count was passing through Mannheim,
and was invited TO some fetes given by
the elecior palatine, when he met Vol
taire. An intimacy sprang up between
them, and these letters, extending over
about ten years, were the result.

Don't Forget the Old Folks ut

The following article, which appeared
some months since in the PUBLIC
LEDGER, is reproduced by the request Of
gentleman, who fully appreciates the
wisdom and beautiful thoughts it con-
tains:
There Is always liability, when sons
and daughters have gone from the home
of their childhood, and have homes OF
their own, gradually lose the old at
tachment and cease to pay those atten-
tons to their parents, which were so
easy and natural in the olden time,
New associations, new thoughts, new
cares, all come in, filling the mind and
heart, and, If special pains be not taken,
they crowd out the old loves. This
ought never to be. You should remem-
Der that the change is with you, and not
with those you have left behind. You
have everything new, much that is at.
traetiye in the present and bright in the
future; their hearts cling 10 the past,
they have most in memory. When you
went away, you knew not, aud will
never know until you experience it,
what it cost them 10 give you up, nor
what vacancy you left behind. They
have not, if you have, new loves to take
The place of the old. Do not, then, heart
lessly deprive them Of what you still
can give Of attention and love.
