Mr.. Henry Astor, son of the millionaire
,recently deceased, has been mulcted in $40,
600 damages for cruelty to little girl, Jo-
sephine Ash, now 18 years Of age,-at the
time Of the alleged act Of brutality years
old. Mr.. Astor, Il appears, married the
aunt Of the girl, and employed her father
as farmer and agent. The Ash family
were in poor circumstances, and socially
much inferior to the Astors Ash himself
was at one time Astor's coachman. In con-
sequence Of this marriage, w. B. Astor
gave Henry much less favorable terms in
his will than the other children, and left
his share Of the property in trust Of the
alder sons. Henry seems, from his own
testimony IN the case, to have hecn { pro

The folly of havinga woman in a cor
ruption pool, viii no doubt be guarded
against more carefully hereafter. Their
tongues, like that of Mrs. Marsh, are apt
to be too lively. It was the tongue of Mrs.
Marsh that started the stories against Bel
hap, as well as gentleman George" If,
however, the current story is true, that Mr..
Pendleton excited the jealousy of Mrs.
Marsh by hisattention TO Mrs. Bowers, dur
ing the famous tour to Europe, the motive
of exposure will have to be changed from
the weakness Of excessive volublity to the
power Of will and wounded pride. Mr..
iPendleton should have been courtier
enough to have appreciated both these
traits in the female character. e.

The victory in New-Hampshire is far
more sweeping than appeared from the
earlier returns. Gov. Cheney's majority
viii be from 5000 to 4,OOO-Or more than
double the largest Republican maiorities
which have been obtained since 1869. The
Republicans have certainly nine, and prob
ably ten, out Of the twelve Senators, with
majority Of twenty-five in the lower branch
Of the Legislature. In addition to these, four
out Of the five Councillors are Republican.
The result is very much due to the disgust
excited by Democratic laundering in the
State and outside Of it. nIiel u'l

MuIs Story.


Mr.. Pendleton having, by his own con-
feSsion in the Kentucky Railroad business,
doomed himself to an untimely political
grave from which there is no resurrection
the Indianapolis water-works stock-jobbing
swindle having been brought to light and
laid out Hendricks as cold as pickeled
mackerel; and the Terre Haut Railroad Job
having, we dreadfully fear, sent that Illus
trious reformer, Sam Tilden, to join the
throng Of defunet Democratic politicians,
the organs Of that party have engaged in
mud finging with redoubled vigor. Per
ceiving the bootlessness of all efforts to
galvanize into vitality their defunct chief
tains and Presidential aspirants, they have
embarked in campaign of scandal for the
purpose Of making out that every honest
man in the Republican party who is liable
to be nominated, is no better than the DEM
socratic defunets aforesaid, and the other
shining lights who are on the way to Join
them. Naturally, Secretary Bristow, whose
incorruptible integrity and the courage and
vigor with which he smashed the Whisky.
Ring, make him especially sodious to them,
has been singled out for attack. They have
set about demohshing him with a mule
tale. 1t runs something on this wise:l A;
Kentucky firm at the close of the. war
found themselves with $40, 600 worth of
mules on hand, purchased for the Govern
ment, for which it had no useG There was
some delay about the payment, and con
tract was entered into.with Mr.. Bristow,
previous to his appointment, to collect the
claim for ten per cent. The Secretary ap-i
peared voluntarily before the committee on
on the Goth, and made path
to these facts. As there appears to be moth
ing out Of whicha case can be made, It is
well enough, perhaps, to let them work at

Democratic ingenuity is as ruthless and
tireless as those qualities might be eexpected
to be in the old fellow himself-the prince
Of darkness. The effect of the Belknap
rascality, having by their laundering been
neutralized and thrown into the shade by
the Pendleton revelations, they have now
started asliver against Boutwell-ex-Secre-
tary of the Treasury-that he levied black
mail upon Clsvs fos campaign purposes.
His denial is explicit that he ever wrote to
this gentleman except upon Department
business; that he ever asked Clews for cam
paign funds; and, in short pronOunces the
whole story q fabrication, as the letter
press copies of ali the correspondence he
had with glevs, now on file in the Depart
ment viii show. They have probably un-
ldertaken bigger job in this matter than
they are equalto. aala
