Tie GENERA. oRDEB FoR CAERYISG
ELECI!oNs.-The promised circular OF
Attorney General Tai. TO the United
81 ates rnars!ials dolinins In congression-
al sRa pre- sidcilti..i elections their duties
and explaining the extent OF their pow
ers. Is at length given TO The public =
Stripped OF its verbiage. it gives not on
~ TO United States marslials, but to
deputies whom they may appoint, almost
absolute and. dcspotic authority over
elections. Tie Attorney General takes
the ground THAT the recent decisions of
the Supreme Court, which were under.
stood TO render entirely nagatory GER
tain sections ofttc first acts Of Congress
known - the enforcement acts, edo not
concern FEDERAL elections" Bat for the
purpose of bringing 10 bear influences
and powers beyond what was even
thought Of before in connection with
elections. even by . radical Congress,
the Attorney General summons so lis
aid not only the provisions OF Tic late
acts OH thc subject. bat all the general
peace powers Of United States ,narehals
under the old acts by which the laws OF
the United States were TO bo enforced,
when Il should become necessary in any
ease TO summon the posse oonlibtas.
While admitting thai special depu-
ties can only be appointed Tor cities OF
10000 Inhabitants, the Attorney Gcner-
Isl tells the marshal. that they may APP
poiHt other deputies everywhere ana
anywhere, and in any number, and that
they may take co9ni"ancc OF any onensc
OF 6t'eatioH, as well rs OF act. His
words arc that they are TO protect the
voter "at all times, as well against yio-
lcncc on account Of any vote that he
may intend TO give rs against conspira
cy because Of anything that lie may A.
ready have given - The powers with
which this uolinitcd force OF marshals
aud deputy matshaI3 is clothed we give
in the Attorney Generals own language
After stating that they can summon The
posse comit0tus, lac says:
I'm this connection | advise that You
and each Of yonr deputies, general and
special have right TO summon TO your
assistance. in preventing and QueIIing
disorder, every person an The disi,jct u
boVc fifteen years Of age, whatever may
be their occupation, whether civilians
or not, and including the military OF all
denominations, militia, soldiers. marines,
al of whom are alike bound TO obey you.
The fact that they arc organized q, mil
itary bodies, whether OF the State or OF
the United States. under the immedi-
atc command OF their own officers, does
not in any wise affect thei: legal charac-
ter They arc still the posse cOmi.0us.'
Under such circumstances as these
the preparation is plain for the carrying
Of certain Of the Southern States in the
presidential and congressional elections
by putting over them q swarm of mar
sha!s and deputy marshals and BY the
pressure of the armed band, but to say
that such an election would be free would
be sheer mockcyy Baltimore Sun.

LITTLE FEET.
BY FLORENCE PERCY.

Two little feet, so small that both may nestle
In one caressing hand
Two tender feet upon the untried border
OF Lies mysterious land;
DimPled and soft, and pink as peacn-tree
blossoms
In April's fragrant days
How can they walk among the bBiery tangles
Edging the worlds rough ways?
These white-rose feet along the doubtful future
Must bear a womaD's load;
Alas since woman bears the heaviest burden
And walks the hardest road.
Love, for awhile, will make the path before
them
All dainty, smooth and fair
VIII Gull away the brambles, letting only
The roses blossom there.
But when the mothers watchful eyes are
Away from sight of men,
And these dear feet are left without her
guiding,
Who shall direct them then?
How will they be allured, betrayed, deluded,
Poor little untaught feet!
Into what dreary maZeS will they wanderi
What dangers will they meet?
VIII they go stumbling blindly in the dark
OF Sorrows fearful shades?
Whose sunlight never fades?
VIII they go toiling up Ambitions summit,
The common world above ?
Or in some nameless vale securely sheltered
Walk side by side with Love?
Some feet there be which walk Life's track
unwOunded,
Which find but pleasant ways;
Some hearts there be TO which this life is only
A round of happy days.
But they are few. Far more there are who
wander
Without a home or friend
Who find their journey full Of pains and
losses,
And long to reach the end.
How shall it be with her, the tender stranger
Fair-faced and gentle-eyed,
Before whose unstaIned feet the worlds rude
highway
Stretches so strange and wide?
All! who may read the future? For our dar
ling
We crave all blessings sweet,
And pray that He who feeds the crying ravens
VIII guide the baby's feet.

The Law Of New.nnper..

/ Subscribers who do not give express notice
to the contrary are considered as wishing to
continue their subscriptions.
?. If any subscribers order the discontinuance
of their newspapers, the publisher may con-
tinue TO send them until all arrearages are
paid.
g. II subscribers neglect or refuse to take their
newspapers from the offices to which they are
directed, the law holds them responsible until
they have settled the bills, and ordered them
discontinued.
4. If subscribers remove to other places with
out informing the publisher, and the newspa-
pers are sent to the former direction, they are
held responsible.
5. The courts have decided that refusing to
take newspapers from the Office, or removing
and leaving them uncalled for, is prima facie
evidence of intentional fraud.
6. The postmaster who neglects to give the
legal notice of the neglect OF a person to take
from the Office the newspapers addressed to
him, is liable to the publisher for the subscrip-
ton price.

The ORIGIN oE THE HUMAN RACE. -
Mr.. Darwin traces our genealogy thus /:
"The early prOgenitors of man were, no
doubt, covered with hair, both sexes
having boards; their ears were pointed,
and capable of movement, and their
bodies were provided with tail having
the proper muscles. The foot was pre-
hensile, and eur progenitors, DO doubt,
were arboreal in their habits, frequent
ing some warm forest-clad land. The
males were provided with formidable
canine teeth, which served them as for
midable weapons. At still earlier pc
riod, the progenitors of man must have
been aquatic in their habits; for NOR
phology plainly tells US that our lungs
consist of a modified swim bladder
which once served as a float. These
early predecessors of man, thus seen in
