LADY HOLLAND AND HER CA
PRICES.

Lord Holland was all kindness and
cultivated intelligence, while Lady
Holland undoubtedly mingled with her
many kind and charming qualities
good deal of that tyranny which old
fashioned poets were fond Of cele-
brating as among the prerogatives
and praccs of the ladies whose praise
they sang. 1T must have been curious
s9yst the author of these volumes, to ''see
her coolly order about the clever men
of the dav who were accustomed to be-
inc courted by Others" 1t must occa-
sionally have been something rather
more than curious. In the midst OF
Macaulay's most overwhelming flow OF
talk and anecdote she would tap on the
table with her fan, and say: "Now,
Macaulay, we have had enough of this.
Give us something else" Onceshewas a
little too imperative in tone when Is
suing her commands to Sydney Smith.
She said, rather peremptOrily, sgd
new. RING the bell.' ''Oh, yes" he
answered, land shall l sweep the
room?" While Moore was engaged in
preparing his Life of Sheridan" j" he
was dining once at Holland House, and
sat next the hostess. She kindly re,
marked to him: ''This will be a dull
book of yours, this Sheridan l fear. "
To Lord Dorchester she said once, 81

to publish a poem. Can't you suppress
it:b Her friendly factotmn Allen, who
universally sat at the bottom of the
table and carved for her, she was capt

until he sometimes lost patience and
would assert his independence by lay,
ING down his knife and fork and
teilingher she had better do herself.
Mr.. Charley's recently published me-
moirs contain an amusing story OF the
manner in which the late Comte D'Or-
say. then a young man, resented what
he considered a vexatious caprice OF
Lady Holland. He sat next to her al
dinner. and she dropped her napkin
which he stopped for and restored t
her. Then she let fall her handkerchief
then her knife, then her fork, and 81
on. At last D'Orsay lost patience, an(

don't believe there will be war, for
neither Government wants a war. Again,
in event of war with Spain on account OF
Cuba, the bulk of fighting would be atioat,
for whoever commands the sea, can have
Cuba. We may not have suthclent
heavy iron clad ships, but then some could
be had and we have abundance OF good
naval officers and seamen, when the result
would be certain, leaving for land forces
the smaller task of occupation. No part OF
this will likely be cOntided to me, and
therefore have sent your letter to the
War Department, which can only act after
Congress declares war and provides means
for its prosecution.

A Rad MODEL.

The Memphis appeal, as text for
disquisition upon party management,
saws 1T is claimed for the Repubh
can party that its advantage over its
opponents lies in its ductile power OF
accommodation to circumstances IN
national sense, etc" Now, if we have
read Alright the causes Of the successes
and failures Of parties, particularly the
success Of the Radical party, that causels
not the ductility of It's leaders to circum-
stances, but the ductility Of the con-
sciences of leaders and privates, under
the powerful influences of money. That
party has managed to concentrate a
large proportion of the cap tai Of the
country within a circle over which 1t
exercises absolute control, and thus,
armed with the only power which con-
trolls Radical action, the party is able
not only to manufacture the circum-
stances towhich it accommodates itself,
but to buy sufficient amount of pub
lie opinion to giveforce and effect to Its
corrupt policy. There is no question
of constitutional law or moral integrity
involved in its success, and therefore
we can endorse no effort to set up the
plan of Radical success as a model for
Conservatives or DemOcrats.-Ctdr6s-

REwARDING PLUNDERERs
From the Cincinnati COmmer'

The Ne1v York Sun says:
ssSince the fall of Tweed and his eonied-
crates. there has been no organization, not
even excepting the corrupt crew who RUE
Philadelphia, which has so boldly initiated
the example of the Tammany thieves, and
followed so closely in their footsteps, as the
band of public pIunderers who have seized
mon tbe District of Columbia, spoliated
the property of its people, and robbed the
National Treasury by every species OF
barefaced fraud"
This is exactly true; and yet the P1esl-
dent not only sends the name OF the KoD-
her Chief of the District to the Senate for
Governor, but is at pains towaTmly indorse
the policy of the thieves in swindllng tIe
people through pretended improvements
The President, fuddled by the representa-
tons of his Secretary, Babcock, who is one
Of the ring, is insensible Of the gravity OF
the RESPONSIBILITIES that he assumes, ana
the disgust and apprehension Of those VINO
know the scandalous situation INTO winch

MACMAHON's DUELs IN Isa7.

the manly sports of his boyhood TO the
Gambling, hard drinking, and frivolous
callantries in which most of his brother
officers INDUCED; but, on the other
hand, he was n noted and skill

sites of his position. An officer
who went much to court, and had per

King. could not, in those days, stand
by Indifferent while the royal family
were assailed by liberal journalists, and
by Bonapartist officers of Napoleon's
old army. MacMahon made point OF
attending the Cafe Falois, in the street
of that name, which was then the head
quarters of royalist officers, and there
duels were arranged almost every night
as cooIly as pigeon matches would be
in these our times. 1t was the custom
for the liberal papers to be placed IN a
heap on the central table. AT
O'Clock officers dropped IN, and at
&. when the room was full, the papers
would be read aloud, and If one OF
them contained anything offensive t.
the King, the officers drew lots among
them as to who should go and challenge
the editor. Important Journals were
then generally provided with respon-
sible fighting editor, whose sole mission
it was to accept challenges. He was
generally an old half-pay officer or ser
geant. and now and then It happened
that he could not even read. MacMa-
hon fought seven Of these gentle
men in the> course of five years,

THE bill on salary repeal, reported
by the majority of the House Commit
tee yesterday, leaves in statu quo, !. e.,
IN the pockets of the plunderers, all the
back pay absorbed by the members of
the last Congress, and all the advance
pay already drawn by the present body.
This hardly accords with the notion of
repentance preached by the great
Augustin only fifteen hundred years
ago. He insisted there could be no
forgiveness unless the thing taken be
returned. From the laughter which
greeted Mr.. Poland's proposed substi-
tute, we may conclude that in the
grand army Of back-paysters there are
but few pay-backsters.
