SELLING LAND UNDER DIFFICULTIES
10 the course of regular business United
States Marshal Packard was directed to
sell certain property in or near St. Martins
vile. ST. Martin parish. Deputy Marshal
Steele was sent up to attend to the Dusi-
ness Before starting on his journey he re-
ceived an anonymous letter, warning him
that it would be decidedly unsafe for him
10 venture on such mission, and before he
reached St. Martin the warning was
repeated. This did not deter Mr.. Steele
or prevent him from pursuing his duty.
On reaching that village he dicovered that
the notific atoms bad not been given
in vain. Forewarned was fOrearmed, which
means that the deputy marshal was "well
heeled" for open enemies, and had any mis-.
preant dared to draw on him, there would
have been trouble. Mr.. Steele sold the
pro oerty but was often cOvertly insulted
by wretches who were too cOwardly to face
him. Mr. j. X. Hoard, of Ohio, was the
purchaser, he buying it to improve it. he
was anonymously warned after the sale
that he would not be permitted to settle in
that section, and the bast thing for him to
do would be to find home in another par
ssh In this case the warning must have
been given simply because Mr.. Hoard was
a stranger. The consequence is that st.
Martin is deprived of an excellent citizen
and farmer.

Female Ednea,inn

A writer in Blackwood's says: The
subject OF female education has brought
out with special force Of acclamation, the
superiority Of the present day over the
past, in the thoroughness OF instruction
impaired. The slipshod teaching of
girls in former days, its miserable pre-
tense and hollowness is an inexhaustible
theme, and indeed there is not much to
oe said of it. Compare the school books
OF the past with any paper or teaching
addressed tp the young women of the
present-compsre what they are ex.
pected to be interested in, the intrica.
.cies OF grammar and construction, which
are at their fnger-ends, with the ignor.
ance of accidental picking up OF knowl.
edge which was once the woman's main
chance of requirement and our expecta.
tlOns are not uhreasonably raised.
The pupils of the new school ought to
be more companionable than their pre-.
decessors, they ought to talk better,
more correctly, more elegantly; and, as
their subjects of interest become more
profound, as science and art open their
stores to them, their vocabulary should
meet the need at once more accurate.
more copious, more felicitous. We put
it to our world of readers-is it so2 DO
our young ladies talk better than their
mothers2 Do they express their mean
ing with greater nicety2 Nay, do they
speak better grammar Moreover, is
this an aim2 Are they taught to do this
by their sex, who profess to portray the
girlhood Of cur day2 Is it not an uu-
derstood thing that three or four epithets
are to do duty for all the definition the
female mind has need of, and that sole
cisms, which would have shocked the
ears Of an earlier generation, pass unre-
proved"

She then tried to get down on

hand only extended downward on level
with her hips. She appeared TO be much
embarrassed. We could almost hear

doubt, contained considerable money, for

1t may be safely laid down as the rule that
unless matters are differently managed in
Massachusetts no gentleman will care to ac-
cept It's hospitality. 1t seems that President
Grant was invited by the committee who had
charge Of the celebration Of the battle Of Lex
ington to take part in this festival He at
tended, and his presence contributed largely
to the success of the celebration, as would be
natural in country respecting laws and the
magistrates charged with the execution Of the
laws. Since the celebration there has been
discussion as to the bill incurred at one Of
the Boston hotels for the entertainment Of
President Grant and his friends. The points
Of discussion are, Did the President and his
friends drink wine2 How much wine did
they drink2 Did the bill represent more
cigars than wine? Was the President at all
under the influence Of Hquor2 One of the
gentlemen taking part in the discussion pub
licly expressed his fear that the Presidents
habits were such as to give great concern
A discussion of this kind is really beneath
contempt The President of the United States,
whatever we may think of him politically, is
the first citizen Of this country and gentle
man. He accepts the hospitality accorded to
gentlemen and becomes the guest of city
committee, and is forbidden to make any
statement even Of the treatment he received.
When he finds the hosts Of such entertainment
deliberately criticising the behavior of their
guest, wondering whether he did or did not
drink wine, or did OF did not smoke cigars,
Sec 81 4I,oo frn
of his habits upon his future career there can
be but one feeling, and that is that those who
gave this entertainment in New England have
insulted President Grant, and not only done
50 but in the highest form in which insult
can be giyen-namely, by host to guest
We should, Of course looking at mat
tiers from tho highest point Of view,
prefer to have those in authority
absolute temperance men, but it is not a sin
for gentlemen to drink wine There are
thousands Of men in this country OF the high
est personal character, eminent, devout,
estimable, whose names have never even
fallen under criticism, who make the drink
ing Of wine a part Of their daily life. II
would be the highest act Of rudeness for a
citizen to speak Of having given his guest
wine, and after lie had left his table to make
that gift a basis Of fear as to his personal
habits How much higher, then, is the rude
ness when it finds the President Of the United
States under the operation Of such criti-
cism ?
The whole business may have a spicy as
pect, but those who do not believe ''anythirg
is fair in politics." and that it is proper in
making political point to violate every senti-
ment Of generosity and good feeling and the
better sense Of the country, will derounce
utterly beneath contempt as violating the
highest instincts OF modern society and
bringing disgrace upon the hospitality Of
New England.
