ROUNDLY ABUSED.

There never was candidate for the
Presidency--nots even excepting Horace
Greeley so roundly abused as S. j..
Tilden. A sixteen years lease of the
White House. and the arrogation that
they alone saved the country, has
made the Grant faction of the Re-
publican party. think that they have an
undisputed right to plumber the Gov
eminent as long as they please. Find
ing no vulnerable point in tho platform
on which Tilden stands, or in his letter
of acceptance. they rely on personal
abuse. and their ability, by misrepre-
sentation, to revive the war feeling and
array the different sections Of the
Union against each other to prolong
the sway of extravagance aud corrup-
ton at Washington. 1t is sufficient to
satisfy thinking men who joined the
Republican party, when principle--not
plunder-was its motto, that nearly all
the original Republicans of note are in
favor of Tilden's election; and that the
New York Times, the principal organ
of the Administration, which now fur
nishes scurrilous editorials for the
small instruments of the party. com.
mended Tilden previous to his nomina-
ton at st. Louis, as man who har
shown himself gallant, conscientious,
efficient foe to corruption, and gen
tleman of very high character.

Some three or four weeks since e.

Mixture OF Races ana Mental Char
Aeter.


One further inquiry Of different kind
may be added; What effect is produced
on mental nature by mixture Of races?
There is reason for believing that,
throughout the animal kingdom, the
union of varieties that have become
widely divergent is physically injurious;
while the uuion of slightly-divergent va.
rieties is physically beneficial. Does the
like hold with the mental nature2 Some
facts seem to show thai mixture Of hn-
man races extremely unlike produces a
worthless type Of mind-a mind fitted
neither for the kind Of life led by the
higher OF the two races, nor for that led
by the lower--a mind out of adjustment
to all conditions of life Contrariwise,
we 6nd that peoples of the same stock,
slightly differentiated by lives carried on
in unlike circumstances for many gene
rstions, produce by mixture mental
type having certain superiorities. In his
work on The Huguenots," Mr.. Smiles
points out how large a number Of distin-
guiShed men among US have descended
from Flemish and French refugees; and
NJ. Alphonse de Candolle, in his " His.
toire des Sciences ct des Savants depuis
ceux Siecles," shows that the descend
auis Of French refugees ia Switzerland
have produced an unusually great pro-
portion Of scientific men. Though, in
part, this result may be aseribed to the
originsl natures Of such refugees, who
must haye had that Independence which
isithe chief factor in originality, yet it is
probably in part due to mixture Of races
For thinking this, we have eyidence
which Is not open to two interpretations,
Professor Morley draws attention to the
fact that, during seven hundred years Of
1our early history, The best genius of
England sprang up on the line of coun.
try 10 which Celts and Anglo-Saxons
came together Ia like manner, Mr..
Cation, 10 bis English Men Of Science"

phrase, as the girl-garland twined

thing was that the music to which the
nautcHs syas danced was our old familiar
friend Bonnie Dundee, to which some
OF US had galloped past many saluting
point on many field day. Then the
music changed to another not less
familiar strain that OF "Camptown
Races and to this the neuteh girls
danced very pretty waltz, still hanging
on to their ropes They gave place to
the famed Gwynna, the beautiful premi-
ere danseuse Of Tanjore Her style of
dancing could not at first be called
graceful She began by continuous
wriggle, suggestive Of st. Vitus' dance,
then she suddenly changed her mood
and jerkily capered as if galvanized,
comforting herself spasmodically and
ungraceiully. These we're but prelimi-
nary displays. 1t presently became oh.
yious that there was motif in ber pas
seul.s Far back on the platform she
trembled and vibraled with hesitation
and bashfulness coniendiug with ardor.
The latter emotion triumphed. With a
series Of eager bounds, her arms
stretched out, her body on the tension,
she sprang TO the front of the stage to
lavish there her Establishments. She
supplicated with all,her arts, with vim
some gesture Of pleading face and bend
ing head, with outstretched figure, with
arms eager to clasp, Foiled, she tell
back discounted and repulsed, with
trailing limb and dropping head. But
she would not yield before one failure.
Advancing more slowly in a series of
picturesque attitudes, she again strove
to win with all the artillery of her varied
fascinations and multitudinous allure
ments. A pantomime of'delirious joy,
as at length success crowned her efforts;
and she fell back, swaying with every
grace Of varying attitude. and leading
captive the imaginary being who had
succumbed to her Establishments.
