PATTERSON BUYS THEM.
For proof I have no occasion to 90
far back John j. Patterson bought
his late election to the Senate. With.
out money he would not have got a
vote, not one. BY cxpending between
sixty and seventy-five thousand dol
lars be bought ninety-votes-bought
them as you would buy SO many bush
els of potatoes. There is no earthly
doub. of this. His agent, Worthing-
ton, was seen to pay two negro legis.
laiors twenty minutes before the vote
was taken. One man in the Senate
got thirty-five hunered dollars. The
vote was taken in the Senate first, and
there is where he paid the heaviest, as
hewanted the moral effect of hand
some vote on the first ballot. He go,
it. He paid for it. He is Senator,
but he bought the place. He knows
he bought il; the members of the
Legislature know he bought it; Gov
ernor Scott knows he bought it,
everybody knows it here, and shall
do what l can to let other people into
the light.
The night after the election he
was arrested for bribery and taken to
Jail, but released on a writ of Labea.

Republican party, that this is hls last
purchase for some time yet.

A heroic WOMAN.

It is related that in the year 1855.
the Grand Master of the Knights of
Malta sent as q present a costly
bracelet of rubies to Madame du
Frenoy, a French lady of great beau
ty, in token of her extraordinary
and gallant conduct; when an Al
gerine corsiar attcked the vessel in
which she was passenger. This
lady was in n polacer, bound to
Genoa, and the Algerine coming
along side poured in broadside,
and then graphing with her. num-
Der of the Algeriues boarded her,
sword in hand. The crew, were
about to submit to the enemy, when
Madame du Frenoy snatched a sabre
from a wounded sailor, and welded it
with astonishing courage and effect.
The crew, animated and inspired by
such an unexpected example of fe-
male valor, fought with enthusiasm,
killed several of the pirates. and
drove the remainder back to their
own vessel. When the lady reached
the shore she was everywhere greet
ed with acclamations by the popu-
lace. The Marquis de Cristeaux
waited upon her, and with his own
hand placed crown of laurel on her
head-and portrait of her was tax
en- fer the Queen of France.

BEAUTY USADORSED.

native grace, fair proportioned, on
polished limbs, veiled in simple robes
beyond the pomp of dress. He be-

as will be seen by the following,
which we find adrift in our exchanges: !:
My wife was woman, and I no.

her sex. She was as extravagant in
dress as any of her friends, and I
took her to task about it. I shower

head submissively, retired to her
room. from which she emerged in a
few minutes. She had carried out
my wishes to the very letter Her
dress hung limp about her person.
Her chignon, which was her crown
ing glory. was gone, and her natural
hair was twisted into small, insig-
nifcant knot on the back of her head.
She had no collars, cuffs or rings,
no pins-in short, she was d,vested
of all eff those helps to figure and
form which the sex know SO we'll how
to employ.
Ordinarily she was counted a band
some woman; as she stood before me
in that shape, Iconfess was astonish-.
ed at her superlative ugliness.
"Come." she said meekly, ''it is
time we were ON our way to the
concert"
I did not go TO the concert with
my wife in that guise. On the con-
trary, with much hemming and haw-
ing-for no man likes to so back on
himself-I meekly asked her tu
resume her natural garb.
NY experiment at reform with the
female part of my household had the
appearance of failure.
