The Southern third term Fuglemen
are insidiously seeking 20 make capital
for Grant by conveying the impression
that he will veto the civil rights bill, and
thus save them from the horrors of alb
solute negro equality. The President
has given no public intimation of hos
tility 10 the civil rights bill. lie has
been throwing tubs to the (negro) whale
In every message by urging the adop
ton OF such measure, and he will
hardly dare to ego back ON his party
allies for the faint prospect Of concilia-
ting the southern whites, especially
when 1t will insure the loss of the
Southern blacks

Is said to be the result of the agitation

E#- Judge Porter is bearing the dem
Ocratic banner nObly in East Tennessee.
He makes the sly old Naraganset vince
and squlrm under his excavations, but
doesn't let him get from under his
thumb. Maynard wants to shirll his
record and draw Porter into a defence
of the funding and assessment laws,
which Porter has the good sense to rec
Ognize as not only matters of mere eN-
pediency, involving no principle that
any party can object to, but as laws
which have already been executed be-
yond repeal, and as measures which
both parties assisted in passing. May
nard is shrewd and able on the stump,
and but for his New England record,
would be almost invincible, but the gall
liant Porter holds steady rein on him,
keeps him on the rack, spurs him every
jump, and makes him chafe and blow
tremendously.

Gz8- EX-President johnson denied in
his Shelbyville speech that he was in ia
YOr of reputation. He was very severe
on the Union E american for its editori-
al SO chasing him, and on Gov. Brown
for opposing him four years ago for the
Senate. lie said Gov. Brown is now at
the head of a clique which is trying to
control the State, and is the standard of
democracy, while he is claSsed as an ex-
Republican President. ''Why," says
Andy, "Jno. c. Brown never drew a
democratic breath in his life" and when
he was engaged in this opposition to
him he had Andrew Johnson's pardon
in his pocket. Now the truth of history
will bear out the u. Il 4. in its assertion
that he was elected on the Republican
ticket, and IL he is not an eX-Repubr-
can President, what is hep As for his
pardon OF Gov, Brown, perhaps that
gentleman did not know that Mr.. john
son required perpetual allegiance there
for, and that the price of pardons was a
support of his future claims to office
He attempts TO ridicule Gov. Brown, and
evidently regards him rs his most for
midable opponent-though that gentle
man has never so much as intimated
that he wanted the position. The truth
Is, however, Gov. Brown is the choice of
the people for that position, and this fact
eXasperates the willy and ambitious ex-
reBublican President.

IN BAD COMPANY.

few days ago Southerner who is not beyond
the shady side Of shirty five was one Of the band
OF prisoners In the dock OF an uptown Police Court
and, on complaint Of young woman Of no con-
siderable grace, was committed to Blackwel's
Island for time. The accused, but few years
ago, was Of the brightest intellectual geniuses
In the South, rising politician OF note in one Of
the Carolinas and served as an oflcer in the army
Of the Confederacy. The war ended as dsas-
trously for him as for others ana ne sought to
better his fortunes in the North, ana since the
war, o portion of his time, held the position OF
drummer for one Of our largest mercantile houses
But three years ago, however, he became infatu-
ated with o woman Of the world, ana the twain
began to lead a rather suspicious and not Alto
gether strictly honorable life. She soon divested
him OF money, reputation, position and friends,
and then deserted her lord 70 his fate. Needless
to add the couple quarrelled and in default OF bail
to keep the peace the S0utherner was sent to
prison. Here ne suffered the disgrace OF confne
mcnt until yesterday, when some kind persons
who had befriended him in other days sought and
procured his release.

| From the Detroit Free Press, Nov. :,
| Some five or six weeks ago young man
named Charles Perrin, 23 years old, and a
carpenter by trade, fell in love with good
looking girl whose parents live on Orchard
street. Charles had red hair and treckled
face, aud although the young lady treated
him courteously when he called at the
house she had her mind made up that she
could never wed red headed man. After
an acquaintance Of three weeks he asked
her to become Mrs. Perrin, and was great
y taken down when she told him that She
couldn't think of such thing. Charles
then sought to have the old folks put IN
good word for him, but they declined to in
terfere He continued his visits, perhaps
hoping to soften the girls heart, but Thurs
day evening the crisis came He went to
the house with bottle OF acid in his peck
Ct prepared to spoil her beauty if she did
not give him favorable answer. There
was no one at home but the girl and her
mother, and Perrin first wanted the girl to
take walk with him. She refused to CO.
and he asked to see her alone. She re-
fused this request, and the lover had just
got ready to draw the bottle from his peck
ct when something bit him. He thought
it was dog but it wasn't, The cork had
worked out of the bottle, and his coat tails
we're turning brick color at the rate Of a
yard a minute. The acid wasn't content
with the coat tails, but struck out for flesh,
and in about minute the young man was
dancing around the house as if to escape
bullet. Shouting and whooping, he got
out of doors and threw off most of his
