But. when abe thought herHeli alone,
One night they heard her muttering low.
In such chill, deepalring tone,
It seemed the east winds Bullen moan:

One morning, vacant was her room;
And, In the clover wet with dew,

And, following tho track, tiled
Across field Of Summer grain,

Political Aspects Of the Scandal.

Il may intereat tho readers OF the Rept4b{icf11s
to know that in this city the Beecher scandal.

County il Nlr. John Winslow, y member OF
Plymouth Society, member Of tho Investigate

report. It is generally understood that M1.
W1nsioW accepted Lis position on the Committee
early in the controversy, when ho fancied that
there would be but ono side to it, and that the
side OF Mr. Beecher and that. il he rendered
service to the Beecner party by triumphant
acquitta1 of their pastor, the nomination Of
District Attorney, to which he Was but recently
appointed TO i'll vacancy. would be occurred to
him. But 1.-The best laid pans of mice and
men gang aft a-gloy." The report was so badly
handled by Ilton in his last statement that
Wlns1ow has fairly had the laugh of the town
turned upon him, and especially that Of the
legal profession.
It ls proverblal TINT men can stand almost anv
other opposition than ridlculo 1t is the eane
With political parties and their candida:ea. Re-
publcans IN Brooklyn do not wish to have DEM
oc1ats laughing at Wins1ow and his report, aud,
to save themselves from this modification thew
are seriously debating whether or not they can
Afford to brl1g dscredlt On their ticket By put
ting man on 1t who has 80 successfully stu1ti-

has suddenly arisen in the person OF Gen. Cat
lin, the law-partuer of Gen. Tracy (Who WAS the
counsel selected BY the Committee to conduct the
examination of Witnesses in Mr.. Beechers be-
half, who is known to be personal friend Of
Mr. Beecher. As matters arc, the Republican
party hero stands between two fires. Ono fac
tion say that, il Winalon is deprived Of the nom

Mr. Beocher, aud that the ticket will encounter
the hostility Of Plymouth Church. Tho othez
faction say that, il Winalow is not thrown over,
the party will have to go into the CANVASS with .
man who has suffered already worse than po-
1ticl defeat, and that the chances Of success
Will be badly damaged It will thus be seen that
the BeecheE scandal finds itself suddenly 1adia.-
