ayers of the Democratic party SO much
concern as the symptoms developed by
the outbursts of Mclean and Brown.
The managers see that their power is
not equal to the emergency; that they
cannot crush the old spirit swelling
strong again in the breasts of. their
more fiery Southern members;and that
the danger of rousing the North before
another Congress has come and gone is
one which they cannot Overestimate.
But while they see clearly that they
can scarcely hope to crush this new up
rising and self-assertion of the Confed-
crate element, at the same time have
not the courage to denounce it. And,
as of old, they must even yield to it,
and humble themselves before it. The
majority on the Democratic side deplo-
red the scene in which Mclean and
Brown were actors, and yet not a
Northern Democrat or a Southern one
dared to vote to censure him. The
game is success in 1876, and for this the
Northern Democracy will lay itself
low at the feet of restored Confederates,
as in the old time it bowed humbly to
the slave power.
The North may prepare itself for a
stormy Congress after the present ends.
There will be great efforts made to
maintain quiet and prevent imprudent
speech on the part of the majority in
the next House, but the faith Of the
managers that these ends can be secu-
red is very weak. The signs are many
nnd significant that the rallying cry
which will win in the organization of
the next House will be, the South to
the front. HI. V. B.

Marrying for Love.

MARRYING for love is not always unlucky,
or indiscreet, either. When Marshal Bazane
was in Mexico, and at the height of his fame,
he fell in love with the beautiful and gentle,
but peniless, Senorita Pena Pena, whose
only possessions were her own charms and
virtues, and historic hereditament that had
descended from her grandfather, a former
Presinent of the Republic. At the time of
the marriage, the young lady was deemed to
have made a great catch in a husband 50
wealthy and famous But in the general
chapter of vicissitudes time brings some curl
GUS changes, as it has done in this case. Mis-
fortune checkered the career of the whilOm
condescending lover, and penury and degrada-
ton followed atfiuence and dignity. The
affairs of the loving pair were ut their lowest
ebb; but just at this juncture-so the Genius
of Romance fixed it, to give an orthodox
denouement to this love story in actual life

| THE Supreme Court of the United
States, on a writ Of error from the Su-
preme Court of this State, has just af
firmed the decision of the latter in the
appeal of the Reading Railroad against
the Commonwealth, to the effect that a
tax upon the gross receipts of rail-
road company is within the power of
State to impose; that the Erie road
was intended to be taxed by the act of
the Legislature as doing business with
in the State. and that the tax is justly
apportioned to the length of the road
in the State, and not therefore TO be
complained of by the comapny, and
further that the property of the road is
not exempted from tax by former leg
islation. In the appeal of Fox uersus
the Wheeling, Pittsburgh and Balti-
more Railroad Company, certified from
the Circuit Court of the Western dis
trict of this State, the same tribunal
held that under the resolution of the
Pennsylvania Legislature of 1S43 rail-
road company could not mortgage or
otherwise convey their property while
debts were due for construction, so as
to deprive contractors of their right to
recover claims for work done, thus re-
versing the decision of the court below.
In another appeal case from the Cir
cult Court of Virginia, the Court held
that the war having rendered the cur
rency of Virginia of no value in Penn
sylvania, there is no longer any au-
thority in an agent, appointed in Vir-
ginia in April, 1861, and living in Vir-
ginia after the war closed, to take the
Virginia currency in discharge of
debt due his principal, a citizen of
Pennsylvania. These ore all impor
tant decisions, particularly the latter,
since otherwise every Northern credit
or of Southern debtors would be at the
mercy of the agent he had employed
before the war.-Pitts. Com.

THE Democracy of Tennessee are en-
gagged in the laudable enterprise of
trying to throw away the credit of the
State, by repudiating its financial obli
cations. The bonded debt of Tennessee
is about $22, 100000, the interest on
which is $l,5OO,OOO, the debt having
been funded by the Legislature two
years ago. At the beginning of the
session of the present Legislature, the
State bonds were quoted at seventy
nine cents, but they have now dropped
down to sixty-four, in consequence of
an avowed purpose on the part of
portion, at least, of the Legislature to
repudiate part of the debt represent
ed by those bonds. The fact is all the
more significant when it is remember
ed that at the State Convention last
summer, which was composed of the
leading Democrats and Conservatives
of the State, resolutions declaring it to
be the sense of the convention that the
credit and honor OF the State demanded
the full payment of every dollar of
State Indebtedness were enthusiastical-
ly and unanimously adopted. Andrew
johnson, the only true expounder of
the Constitution, is in measure re-
sponsible for the existence of this dis
honorable spirit Pitts. Com.

A Good Hint.

The Toledo Blade makes the follow
ing good suggestion for the protection of
game:
1t is feared by many lovers of game
that the long duration of snow upon the
ground will prove very fatal to the
quail and smaller birds. The following
plan is suggested, which it is thought,
that feeling of compassion for the poor
birds will induce many farmers to put
in operation. Drive stakes in the ground
about ten feet apart and foot or two
in height, and then lay poles across and
cover them with bushes and leaves. BY
throwing some grain under this cover
ing the birds will soon be entieed to-
wards it, and then when heavy storm
occurs they will resort to it for shelter as
well as u feeding place. Such protec-
tion as.is here recommended seems vi
tally nessary, and is not too late at this
time.

TWENTY years ago, on Saturday,
February 10, 1855, Vice President Will

Senate as the successor of Edward Ev-
erett. The Senate then occupied the
Old Chamber, now the United States
Supreme Court Room. OF the sixty
one other gentlemen who occupied
seats in the Senate at that time, thirty
seven have passed away, and of the
twenty-four who survive, the only one
now in the Senate is Hannibal Ham
lin, of Maine. The latter has not how
ever, served continuously as Senator,
having meanwhile served as Vice Pres
ident, as Governor of Maine, and as
Collector of the Port of Boston. Mr..
Wilson has kept an autograph album,
in which he has secured the signatures
of all with whom he has sat ia the Sem

of their birth. The signatures now

IT is now definitely known that the
failure of the attempts at a compromise
between the contending factions in
Louisiana was due mainly 10 Demo-
cratic lost ditchers at the North, who
appealed to their Southern cGnferees to
keep their wounds opens for the sake
of the party. During the pending of
the negotiations, a great number of
dispatches were sent to Conservatives
in New Orleans from the Manhattan
Club in New York. from Chicago, st.
Louis, Cincinnati, and nearly all the
leading cities of the North, advising,
in the strongest terms, against making
any settlement, of whatever character.
The simple truth is that they are in
fiexibly opposed to any legislation in
Congress which promises to give peace
and prosperity to that distracted State,
or to curb their own reactionary and
dangerous purposes Pits. Com.

and set up the drinks, but they did not
seem inclined to fall in with his plans
and left him. Pifer had blood on his
clothing, and is said to have stolen s5

The evening breeze blew softly
through the open windOws of French
hospital. 1t lifted the swaying covers
OF pure white, spread the odors of new
ly-gathered flowers, and toyed loving
ly with the golden curls of sufferer
who lay babbling softly to himself in
the wanderings of fever.
Richard Boughton, a visitor there
from curiosity, walking slowly up the
aisle, between the long rows of snowi-
ly-draped beds, paused to listen. He
had never seen that face before, and
yet there was c0mething strangely IA
miliar in it. Something in the arch
ing brOws, in the graceful curve of the
busy lips, in the tones of the voice,
called up slumbering memories In his
heart-bitter memories that he thought
had been forever put to rest.
AN unknown man. said the attend
ant, in answer to Richard Boughton's
questioning lLok. He can not live
much longer; the fever will reach its
height tonight, ,and he is too much bro
ken down to rally. Tomorrow morn
ing he will be dead .,aa
Richard turned sadly to the patient.
The fair hair was damp with sweat the
blue eyes flashed with fever light, the
restless tongue busy with wandering
words. He raved wildly of guilty,
drunken scenes, of fierce brawls, and
wild revels. Then he was fugitive,
wretched, despairing, imploring in
frantic wOIds his pursuers not to slay
him.
A softer look came into the wild
eyes; there was mournful entreaty in
the lowered tone.
Nellie, dear Nellie, come to me. L
am waiting, Nellie-waiting for you
and baby. Will you never come?
They lied! Nellie; did not desert you.
l am waiting darling. Will you not
Gomez
His tone was inexpressibly tender
and pleading.
And Maria! brave, strong, true Ma
ria; you will not desert me? Where
are you, Maria? Come to me. They
said that you were TO be married, Ma
ria; but he left you when you became
poor. 1t was not my fault, Maria; they
took 1.-THE finds! And they are COM
ing nOw-coming for me! Save me,
Maria, save met
A wild hope was leaping in Richsrd
heart "a new light was pour
ing into his mind. Could it be? He
almost shuddered to ask himself the
question.
Far into the night he sat there lis
tening to the rawlings of the dying
sat until the fiuttering hands
grew quiet, the babbling tongue hush
ed, the restless eyes m0tiOnless. Then
he drew the cover reverently over the /
stiffening form, and turned silently
away. The first beams of the coming
sun were flushing the east; solitary
bird chirped sweetiy. Richard Bough-
toms eyes raised with thankfulness.
The sun of hope had risen in his heart;

A WONDERFUL JUVENILE AMAN-
UENsIs.--Among the scholars now
attending the Silver City public
school is little girl of ten years Of
age, who has developed some Won
derful powers in the art of chiro-
graphy for one SO young in years.
Not only this, but the child possesses
a memory which, when properly
trained, will be marvel in intel
lect. The little girl is what is called
H.left- handed" aud her teacher has
made every effort to induce her to
use the pencil in her right hand
when cyphering, but it has been
found almost impossible. When
writing with pen, however, the
teacher has insisted that it must be
done with the right hand or she
would be marked deficient" in that
branch. The girl has therefore al
ways used the right hand in her
specimens of penmanship, and now
has dextrous use of both. Where
the "wonderful" comes in is that
you may give her two sentences to
copy and she will take pen in each
hand and write one with each hand
at the same time, as rapidly and cor
rectly as any ordinary scholar will
write one. No matter how long the
/ sentence, the task is performed
quickly, gracefully and correctly.
We consider this feat as we'll worthy
of note, and little ahead of any,
thing We have heard Of lately. If
you don't, just take couple of pens
and try the experiment,
