Bonds for the Peace.

We call the attention Of the Lcgis-
laturo to the law in relation to this
matter. AS it now stands, some Trial
Justices may interpret il to mean that
they have the right to arrest any citi-
zen Of whom another swcars that lie
fears bodily harm, and compel him to
give bond for his good behavior, or go
to jail for IL year and day. This is
wrong. No man should be required to
find surety for the peace, until he shall
have been tried by a jury and found
guilty Of having uttered some threat
against another. Unfortunately for us,
we have some people in this world who
would not scrnplcto 10 commit perjury
Tor the purpose Of gratifying their
spltcs against u supposed enemy. To
make such mangy ours as these power
less for hnrm-:.t least in this conncc-
ton let the law he so amended rs 10
render it impossible for Trial Justices
10 misintcrprct it. Bind man ever

guilty Of some oilensc, but don'tlct
towards take advantage Of Il law that
was intended for wholesome purposes,

The people of the State have, here
toforc, since reconstruction (and in
many instances bcforc,) been most un
Justly dealt with by the very men
whom they especially delegated
10 protect and defend their temporal
interests in the legislative halls. Bur.

The old abuses were corrected in whole

remedy existing wrongs; and even now
while they arc riling the taxes upon
them like O<sa upon Olympus, and
like Pcion upon O<sa; tlo people
have cause for congratuation and net
complaint.
The event Of the week in legislative
circles, has been the expulsion from
the house Of the reporter Of the Aens
and Courier, for certain structures upon
the Republican members Of the ways
and means committee. The conduct
Of the reporter III this matter cannot
he too severely condemned; and the
action of the house, while it may have
been somewhat modified, was neces.
sary to show that while the press has
liberty, it has not license. The com.
mittec in their action OH the tax bill,
followed closely the Recommendations
contained in the Governors message,
Nay, even went so far rs to accept,

finding that he is not assailcd, looks

4 TERRIBLE Bas,oon Adventure,

Galignani's Messenger says; Nj. Eugene
GODDARD made an ascent last week at
Bayonne, in his balloon Saturne. He
had with him in the car. NJ Vinson.
keeper of woods and forests; NJ. Julien,
a pyrotechnist Of Algiers, and the editor
of Bordeaux journal. The start took
place at halfpast five o'clock in the af-
ternoon. At quarter to six the party
found themselvesat the frontier, the cold
being exceedingly keen. At night the
travellers, who had got among the noun
tains, were obliged to throw out all their
ballast to surmount the Pyrenean peaks.
The wind then began to freshen, and the
speed of the balloon became extreme,
and toward nine clock the snow COM
menced falling. Tossed about by differ
ent currents, and incapable of determin-
ing the situation, their anxiety was ex-
treme. After four hours of suffering,
toward two in the morning, NJ. GODDARD
thought he saw some lights, and prepared
to descend; but the valve being choked
up by the snow, could not be opened.
He then told his companions that they
had but one chance for their lives, name
ly, To cut hole in the silk, and get down
at all hazard. The operation was effected,
and the Saturne descended with such
great rapidity that all four were stunned
by the fall NJ. Vinson who was the first
10 recover, saw his friends living senseless

Grant manages to get along. Now
that he hasn't to provide frills and furbe-
lows for his estimable daughter, and has
quartered his distinguished son on the
country, he is able by the exercise Of
thrift to lay by penny, and may leave
the White House no poorer than when
he entered it. On half his salary Lin
coin managed to save $4,000 and John
son like sum, but the notorious OPEN
handedness of their successor keeps him
poor. 1t is for this reason, perhaps, that
Congress has not been niggardly in pro-
viding means for the running of his
household. Here are some items in the
appropriation bill as it passed the last
Congress:

way, as usual, without buying tickets

way, as usual, without buying tickets
but the doormaster, obeying instructions,
would not allow them TO enter the cars
without seeing their tickets. Col.
Hackett, who escorted Grant, and
dressed in full military costume, waved
his hand, and with the air imperial Of a
Cesar, exclaimed: "The President Of
the United Statcs-President Grant"
"Ican't help who you are. You can't
pass through this gate without showing
your ticket" said the doormaster duti
fully, but with rocky frmness of tone
and manner.
The President cast upon the official a
look Of such concentrated contempt and
scorn as might have withered one who
stood in awe of him.
"Stand back and don't block the pass-
age.way, gents" said the impervious
doormaster.
Grant became furiously angry, said
damn with great vehemence, and
drawing out his wallet, took therefrom a
800 note, handed it to Col. Hackett,
who purchased tickets for the would-be
deadheads, who were then permitted to
enter the cars like other civilized people.
Grant did not speak civil word that
day to any one, but smoked with such
energy as to drive every lady out of the
car. To make the great American dead
head pay railroad fare, is an outrage that

ave doubt II there is even a small mi
nority Of the people Of this section who
would wish to disturb any of the recent
amendments to the Constitution, though they
had the power to repeal them all tomorrow.
There need be no further apprehension on
that score in the North, nor on any other
question connected with the late war. Every
issue is now dead to us, and we would not
revive single one il we could"
The facts here stated have come to be
pretty generally accepted and believed
in by sensible people at the North, in
spite Of the attempts made by stupid and
INSCRIPTIONS Radical organs and politi-
clans to create popular belief to the
contrary. The people of the South have
very certainly made up their minds as
fully as the people Of the North have
done, that the war is over, and that all
issues growing out of the war and settled
by it are dead issues. The settlements Of
the slavery question and of the war debts
of the Southern Confederacy, and Of the
States composing it, are, along with the
constitutional amendments, as fully ac-
cepted by the Southern people as they
are by the people Of the North. 1t is
more than doubtful even whether at this
late day the South has any greater rea-
son to desire reversal of any of these
settlements than has the North, to say
nothing of the common sense which must
and does teach the Southern people that
it is impossible to revive any of the is
sues settled by the war. The best proofs
of this arc found in the cold reception
given by the public at the South to any
scheme looking TO direct or indirect in
demnity for the results of the war, and
the privacy if not obscurity to which the
suggesters of such schemes have been
consigned. On the whole it seems to be
about as dangerous an experiment for
Southern politician to advocate the re-
viyal of any of those dead issues as II
would be for Northern or Western poll
tician.-Ne,p Nork World.

Among the minor troubles Of city life
may be mentioned the difficulty of
procuring a regular supply of fresh eggs.
When we cannot remove our woes, the
next best thing is to try to understand
them. So We devote this paragraph to
what will interest all out of hearing of
the cheerful sounds Of the barnyard. An
egg is generally called fresh when il has
been laid only one or two days in sum
mer, and two to six days in winter. The
shell being porous, the water in the in
terror evaporates, and leaves cavity Of
greater or less extent The yolk Of the
egg sinks, too, as may be easily seen by
holding il toward candle or the sun,
and when shaken, slight shock is felt II
the egg is not fresh. To determine the
precise age Of eggs, dissolve about four
ounces of common salt in a quart Of pure
water, and then immerse the egg. II il
is one day old, il will descend TO the bot
tom OF the vessel but IL three days, il
will float in the liquid. II more than
five days old, il will come To the surface,
and project above it in proportion TO il
increased age.

When the Democratic Congress meets,
the people may expect some startling
exposures of the way things we're man
aged and millions we're stolen in the mis-
named department of justice presided
over by Attorney-General Williams. 1t
is now coming to be pretty generally
understood that the bogus Southern out
RACES of last year were not only intended
for political effect, but to afford an oppor-
tunity TO rob the National Treasury.
We will take the case of one of the Ar
kansas districts, for instance, and COM
pare the costs OF marshals, district attor-
neys, special counsel, clerks, commis-
sioners, rents, and all other items Of
expense in all the New England States.
