ALMOST any high and noble end may
be attained 10y perseverance and patient
industry. The case Of Lena Deitsch. of
New York, Is in point; the end she
sought was her own. Ever since her
husband left her, two years ago, she has
threatened all sorts OF suicides, and has
+. left few varieties untried. Hanging, stab
bing drowning. shooting. all have been
tried, but disheartening failures attended
her every effort. Three weeks ago she
tired Paris green. The fottuitous prox-
unity Of a physician thwarted her, but
she had'learned the ltinhealthiness
Of the drug, and on Tuesday. taking the
precaution to seeude herself she took
another dose, aud it worked to charm.
When the physician came there was
smile of holy triumph on her face which
told them their devices were futile.

style, run AWAY with another man 5 wife.
He did not get off so easily, however, AS
he imagined he would. The man fol-
lowed him, and overlook the truant pair
The editor got behind the woman, and
prepared to sell his life as dearly as pos
sible. He was uncertain as to whether
the outraged husband would shoot him,
or murder him with a carving knife. He
stood there, like the boy upon the burn
ing deck, and calmly awaited the result.
The outraged husband came up within
two feet of the editor, and said, "Cuss
your impudence, l want you TO stop my
paper" That was all. The editor re-
covered himself, and said he would have
the matter attended to at once. During
all the trying scene the woman stuck to
the editor like sand burr to a girl S

stop their paper for almost nothing-it

NEW YORK, July 12.-Kate stoddard,
the confessed murderess of Goodrich,
last evening spent the time playing on
her piano in the Captains room at the
station-house in Brooklyn. The police
of the station say of her that she is an
educated, refined woman, but little
touched. Roscoes capture last night
was considered certain, as there was a
large force in search of him. The Police
Commissioners are under the impression
that Kate Stoddard is assuming respon-
sibIlity in order to shield another, and
that the person is Roscoe.

The Effect OF MABRIAGE.-Doubtless
you have remarked with satisfaction, how
the little oddities OF men who marry
rather late in life are pruned away speed
lily after their marriage You have found
man, who used to be shabbily dressed
with a huge shirt collar frayed at the
edges, and a glaring yellow silk pocket
handkerchief, broken of these things,
and become a pattern of neatness. You
have seen "A man whose hair and whiskers
We're ridicuously cut, speedily become like
human being. You have seen IA clergy
man, who wore n long beard, in little
while without one. You have seen man
who used to sing ridiculous sentimental
songs, leave them off. A wife is the
grand wielder of the moral pruning knife
Whenever you find man, whom you
know little about, oddly dressed, or talk
ing ridiculously, or exhibiting eccentric
ity of manner, you may be tolerabiy sure
that he is not married man. For the
littls corners are rounded off, the little
shoots are pruned away in married men.
Wives generally have more sense than
their husbands, especially when the hus-
bands clever man. The wife S adyices
are like the ballast that keeps the ship
steady. They are like the wholesome,
though painful, shears, nipping off little
growths of seli-conceit and folly.

The N. 2. Tribune on our Troubles

The N. 2. Tribune on our Troubles
1t must be evident that the one
result from Southern misgovern-
ment which thoughtful men have
most dreaded is rapidly coming
to pass. The umprincipaled politi-
clans who have sought to make
their fortunes by aid of the color
ed vote have spared no pains to
create diStinctively negro party
wherever, as in many parts of
Louisiana, the negroes are strong
enough to make it worth while.
They have intiamed these ignorant
credulous people against their
former master. They have assur-
ed them that they must take the
government into their own hands
if they would not be sent back
into slavery. They have famed
their ambition. They have excl
ted their cupidity. OF course at
the same time they have irritated
and embittered the whites. Still
smarting under their defeat and
losses in the war, the whites find
themselves plundered and impos-
ed upon by the worst set ofadvan-
turerS that ever cursed a State,
and are taught that these adven-
turers cannot be dislodged by the
ballot, for they overrule any elec-
ton that goes against them. Now
to make it appear that this mis-
government is sustained by a dis
tinctively negro party, is like
going with lighted candle into &.
powder magazine.
The State authorities of course
must pursue to authors of this
massacre relentlessly. But when
the guilty have been ftly punish
ed there will remain a task to be
performed which might tax the
abilities of statesmen of a much
higher kind than Louisiana is like
ly to see for many years. If We
cannot teach the two races to live
peacefully side by side, the dis
asters of the South have but just
begun; and we certainly shall not
teach that lesson by elevating the
one merely ia order that We may
! plumber and OppresS the other.

Katydid.

When the evening star comes out.
On pleasant summer ewes,
You can hear the little Katydids
Crying out among the leaves,
Katy did, Katy did,
She didn't, she didn't;
Katy did, she did,
No she didn't, Katy didn't.
How 1 wonder what they mean,
In the leaves, so thick and green,
What the mischief is that's hid.
Which little Katy did?
Was Katy once little girl,
Who didn't mind her mother?
Was it only known to Katydids,
And not to any other?
Katy did, Katy did,
She didn't, she didn't;
Katy did, she did,
No she didn't, she didn't;
Was she such a naughty girl,
That through timess unceasing whirl
These insects are forbid
To tell what Katy did?
Ny darling on the porch,
Each eve when they begin,
Tries with eager little ears,
To understand their din.
Katy did, Katy did,
She didn't, she didn't;
Katy did, she did,
No she didn't, Katy didn't;
But with all their constant cry,
My little one or I
Can't make out the secret hid
The dreadful thing that Katy did.

4 Radical View Of Louisiana.

- SsC.A4Sd4 V 4S" " 4SA-s-S44Gs
From the Missouri Republican.
The New York Independent,
usually Radical to the last de-
gree, takes the following SEN
sible view of the Louisiana
trouble:
kellogg - the de facto
governor by Judge Durell's
abuse Of power, by the presi
dents mistake in recognizing
him at all, and, worst of all, by
the criminal neglect of con
gress to take the proper steps
for creating a lawful state gov
ernment-is as conspicuously
a sham as heis a usurper. His
authority has no such general
support among the people as
to make it respected ; and,
hence, the passions Of men are
let loose to deeds of violence"
Yet this Kellogg, who per-
sonally and officially is des-
pissed by the honest members
of his own party, will be sus-
tained by the full power of the
federal government, regard
less of consequences. Let Grant
and his associates, therefore,
accept the responsibility
they have deliberately incur
red, and make the best Of it
But that any amount of adj
ministration pressure will in
duce the people of Louisiana
to indorse the Kellogg regime
and yield to it prompt and
cheerful obedience, we do moi
for a moment believe. Neither
peace nor prosperity will come
to that afflicted state until this
carpet-bagger and crew are
driven from the places they
have usurped,

All this anarchy arises from
the action Of the President in
directing the occupation of a

advance the schemes of a

Congressional Stealing.

congressional Srealng.
From the Sulphur Springs Texasl Gazette
The action Of Congress just
previous to the close Of the
session in voting the members
an increase of pay for service
already performed has met
with that universal condemna-
ton which such a course richly
deserved. Although we have
waited to hear some excuse or
explanation from those voting
for the measure, we have seen
none, or only such as the YER
lest pettifogger would be ash
AIMED to use. 1t is true that
the franking privilege and
mileage are abolished and an
increased salary was necessary
to meet the deficiency arising
from the loss of these privi-
leges. But the last Congress
had drawn their mileage and
used the franking privilege,
and though they had contract
ed to serve at a certain price,
they fraudulently and without
pretending to give an equiva-
lent, appropriated to them
selves a million and a half of
dollars not their own.
This crime is not chargable
to either of the political parties.

4 Republican Wall.

That rather OutSpOken Re-
publican paper, the Louisiana
State Register, has a few words
of counsel for the Republican
party, which should not fall
upon needless ears. 1t thinks
that reform-ifnot compromise
is greatly needed. Read
and ponder:
The Republican party must
reform itself in order to con
tinue in the management of
the political affairs of this
State. The hungry, .ravenous
crowd that throng the corridors
and ante-rOomS of the Govern
er's office are not composed Of
men who can safely be trusted
with the offices of the State.
Besides there are too many
men filing Offices under the
present rule, whose only recon-
mendation for the places they
fill, is that they are dead
beats" They are neither
honest or capable. They are
as destitute of the manners ola
gentleman as a naked Fejee
Islander is of the Christian
graces. They are without the
confidence of the Republican
party, and beneath the con-
tempt of the opposition. This
must be changed if the party
is to be maintained in office
and power-otherwise it ought
not to succeed. This thing of
sending men who cannot get
an office in their own parish,
with a commission into a
neighbOring one, at the solici-
tation of some obscure dema-
agOgue, must be stopped, if the
party expects TO retain the con-
tidence and support of the
people.
