imperialism.

Mr.. Henry WattersOn has written a
second letter from Washington to the
Louisville Couricr-youraal concerning the
tendencies of the President toward third
term and Imperialism. He reiterates his
former assertion that Gen. Grant is an as
pirant for third term, and finds an addi-
tional cause for his suspicious in the recent
visit of Gen. Robert Toombs to the White
House, because Toombs is an earnest and
outspoken imperialist, who does not claim
allegiance to this country, and seeks nothing
SO ardently as a revolution which shall give
it a master" His cordial reception by Gen.
Grant, Mr.. Watterson thinks, is "a straw
which points southwark, where it shows the
existence of a small, but, in cases of emer-
gency, rcsolute body Of men, who, worn
out and Disguised by partisan misgovern-
ment and malignity, regard third term as
the beginning of the end of both. This
class has no personal ill-will toward the
President, and thinks any change would be
for the better. Gen. Toombs is the spokes-
man of this element" Olher elements to
further the Presidents ambition Mr. Wat
tersOn finds in the capitalists who dread
political changes of all kinds, and in the
Republican office-hOlders. In concluding
his letter he warns the South not to take
the chances Of securing better times by fol-
lowing ToOmbs into the imperial camp
until it las made one more fight for the cold
freeborn signals" Both sections he claims
are anxious for harmony and mutual good
feeling, but they are misrepresented by the
of hate in Congress. These mea
may soon be Overtnrown, but if they are not
one thing is certain, eff the missionaries
of ruin who walk abroad in Congress and
out of Congress, fomenting strife and raising
up mutual distrust, are not supplanted by
better men, we may as well bid goodbye to
the Republic, and say all hail to Toombs
and the Empire."-N. Y. Tribune May 10th.

Now that the long summer days are upon
us, IN what manner can we while away their
tedium more agreeably than by lounging in
the book stores, and cleaning from the
treasures contained therein food for the
sOulf How pleasant to withdraw from the
narrowing cares of life, and tor one brief
ecstsfic period become lost in the wilder
ness of thought that lies embodied between
the covers of the manifold volumes that
are tossed SO carelessness in every quarter.
How true the axiom that the open is
mightier than the sword" for it Is the
thoughts of great minds compressed in a
narrow compass, that rule the world and
sway the destinies of mankind, and by the
subtle flow Of the magnetic fluid, dissemmi-
nate their properties throughout the uni
verse; The sword with one fell swoop, ter
inmates all argument, by destroying ex-
isteDce; while the pen, with its sinuous
wiDdings, leaves glorious pathway Of
light and life that awakens the dormant
mind, igni es the fires of genius, and with
its steady glow penetrates the veil of ignO
rance and makes Science the mistress Of the
universe.

then let it be thus, for the magic of romance
and the gift of pOesy rouse the slumbering
the groveling mind to dreams of purer
life! Then let us cast aside the letters that
gall the weary soul and battle in the ocean
of Thought that lies so temptingly before us.
We are appalled, at the immensely Of the
undertaking, but the buOyant waves will
bear us onward to another world, where we
may revel for the nonce in a different and
better sphere. Let us first drift beneath the
shadows Of romance, and there sport while
the spirit Of Thought narrates through the
whispering winds the story of
JOHN WORTHINGTON's NAME.
A romance of the age, well calculated to
bring the momentary oblivion. We are soon
lost in contemplating the character of the
beautiful, gay and fascinating young widow,
Alice MaTchmOnt. Her beauty, charm of
manner and witty converse, attract us ire
sistably, notwithstanding her fOllies caused
her to commit crime that entities her to a
seat in the criminals docket, and paradox
cal as it may seem, the crime is the result Of
the virtuous instincts that form, the basis
of her character. Her faults we forgive, by
charitably considering the extenuating cir
cumstaaccs of her surroundings. First, her
early disappointment. the result of an am
bilious mothers scheming; secondly, her
loveless marriage, and subsequently, the
temptations that beset her as one Of the
brilliant queens of society

respite or pardon between the eager ak
and human head. In Georgia, recently,
there was an actual case of salvation in the
very nick Of time. At Leesburg, negro
named johnson was to have been hung for
the murder OF young man. On the day
of the proposed execution some residents Of
the place telegraphed the Governor that
now testimony had been discovered, render
ing the negroes innocence certain. When
the telegram reached Atlanta, the Governor
had gone to Marietta, intending to ride
thence to the mountains. It was II O'clock,
and the knot was to be tied at IL. The
lightning was again brought into play, and
struck the Governor just as he was vaulting
into the saddle. His respite reached Lees
burg exactly four minutes before hanging
time. 1t was successful application OF
electricity in desperate case.
