The water has risen about twelve inches since

noon shone brightly, and Its rays melted the snow
upon the mountains and started thousands of
little rils. These tributaries have not been sufli-

below Is as compact as granite, and reaches to

Iucrc Is no movement as yet TO SET aside
fraudulent contracts. and, although some new
measures have been introduced into the Assem-
bly, looking 10 purer administration OF the Canal
Department., there Is no eagerness to act upon
them, and 1t may be doubted If there will be any
present session. Indeed, most or the members OF
Assembly are so Ill informed that few OF them
know the actual condition OF legislation even on
canal matters. Some of the most intelligent among
them supposed, late as this afternoon, that the
Senate had acted upon the House resolution, and
it Is impossible to tell now long it will be until
they actually become convinced OF their discom-
future.
IGNORANCE AND IMBECILTTY.
This extreme ignorance and imoecty In the
Assembly makes it difficult to predict what the
action OF that house Will be upon the Senate reso-
luton for committee OF investigation. The prob
abilities are, however, that the Senate resolution
will pass with an Amendments extending the
period OF investigation from 1868 to 1860, as 10
include as many years of republican administra-
ton as possible. Even this extension may not be
accepted by the Senate which has 1t in its power
to dictate to the Assembly any course the republic
can majority may choose to follow. For the
present the republicans are willing to
talk rather than act, and pursue
the make believe policy, which, after all, is what
the Canal Ring most desire. That body OF astute
politicians has recovered from the scare into
which It's msmbers were precipitated by the
Governors Message, and the present datory way
OF dealing with the question raises their spirits
day by day. as nothing Whatever was done today

Woouin to expound his views. This was perfect

MISTAKEN WOMAN WRITER

A shrewd observer of woman nature,
which is another thing than human nature,
once remarked that if a woman gets thor
ough hold upon an ink-pot she never lets
go until she has bedaubed herself and
everything else within her reach. Shrewd
as he was, he was mistaken in the general
application of this rule. We do not be-
lieve that woman nature has changed since
his day, and we know that nova days
there are numbers Of women writers who
keep themselves clean, and who never be-
daub anything unless it deserves bedaubing.
AS a class they are impulsiVe, generous
and sympathetic; they praise rather than
criticise and their instructive love of JUS
tice, or admiration for things that are noble
or daring, makes them enthusiastic in the
treatment Of subjects in which they are
especially interested. They find ready
market for the products of their pens, and
of late years the encouragement to them to
adopt literature, or, more properly speak
ing, journalism, as profession and means
of livelihood, has developed an unexpected
array Of commendable talent. But, while
the great majority are conscientious, and
therefore reliable, it is unfortunate that
they are not all free from personal hatreds
and personal jealousies. Perhaps the envy,
jealousy and hatred of a woman are not
one and the same thing but the results of
those passions, when practically demon
strated by high-strung specimen Of the
female correspondent, with pen in her
hand and numberless sheets of paper be-
fore her, are wonderfully like each other
Such a woman-writer loses her judge
ment, forgets her instructive regard for
justice, and plunges wildly into rhetorical
depths in which she struggles frantically,
while her ink is scattered hither and
thither besmattering friend and foe, her
only qualification being that occasionally
trifing spot hits the real object of her
anger. Such woman it was, no doubt,
that came under the notice of the shrewd
observer to whom we have alluded. He
certainly based his judgment and rendered
his verdict against the entire class upon
such actions. At any rate, just such a
woman has been spluttering and splashing
lately in the columns of the Detective
press. IL my NC uuSalIdutI dul oil IudI
sort of thing to allude to this subject; but
it is nevertheless true that this woman has
strained point for the purpose of making
a sensation. 1t is with trembling concern
that we make this faint allusion TO we'll
known fact, because we know hard hearted
people will construe it to mean that the
woman has approached the sin of Sapphira
Whether she hesitated on the ragged edge
of that sin or not, or, woman-like, tumbled
into the pit, and was lost because she hest
tated, we will not say; but we do know
that unless the lady to whom we refer
is blinded with selfish prejudice or stu
pefed-no, she can't be stupefed-or over
come with some personal envy, the result
of some fancied, and therefore, in woman's
policy, unforgiTeable slight, she will take

the errors she has made and restore herself

THE New York World, claiming to be
the foremost exponent of Democracy in
the North, is the first and most prominent
agency in the attempt to destroy the peace
full effects of the Louisiana compromise. 1t
speaks of President Grants friends as con-
spirators, who "have seen good to force
"upon the people of Louisiana, in the stead
" of their rights, " this conciliatory measure.
This is as we expected. Not only will the
Southern Democrats eventually repudiate
the terms of this equitable compromise, but
the Doughfaces of the North will encour-
age them by setting significant example,
as the World has already done.
