there are numbers ofinstances during the regime
Of DR.. NJ. A. southworth, the late Recorder Of

The legal effect OF this failure will give rise to

has set up the form of Legislature,
and so there are two pretended Gov
ernors and Legislatures. Chamber
lain proposed that the President
should appoint a counting commits
sion to find who were elected to the
Legislature, and that then this con-
firmed Legislature should canvass
the votes for Governor and other
State officers according to law, and
that both parties should acquiesce.
This would have given govern
ment. not without some irregularity
TO be sure, but one which would
have the basis of an election by the
people. and would be the nearest to
regularity that the circumstances
would admit of. 1t is not easy to
see how the Hampton government,
coming in as it viii, can have any
pretensions to legality in form. Its
real basis will be the state of arms.
Another disagreeable feature is that
Chamberlain has been a good Gov
ernor, and that it was his fight
against the corrupt elements of the
Republican party which made his
election disputable, and that Hamp-
ton has affiliated with these corrupt
elements to carry out his scheme by
the abuse of the Judicial office.
Hampton's fair promises that no
violence shall be done, and that the
blacks shall be protected, are receiy-
ed as sterling coin and a satisfactory
settlement Yet it would be better
if the Republicans were protected
by their own rights as citizens and
in the forms of law, rather than to
have to trust to the magnanimity of
a government which. will represent
the supremacy of force. And we
suppose that no one expects that this
projection. will not be subject to the
right Of the Democratic party to
rule, nor to the principle that a
white Republican has no rights in
that State, which the ruling class are
bound to respect.

Woman,s Headgear

| would desire the fair sex to con
slider how impossible it is for them
to add anything that can be orna-
mental to what is already the mas.
terpiece of Nature. The head has
the most beautiful appearance, as
we'll as the highest station in the hu-
man figure. Nature has laid out ali
her art iu beautifying the face; she
has touched it with vermillion,
planted in it double row of ivory,
made it the seat of smiles and blush
es, lighted it up and enlivened ii
with the brightness of the eyes,
hung it on each side with curious
organs of sense, given it airs and
graces that cannot be described, and
surrounded it with such flowing
shade of hair as sets all its beauties
in the most agreeable. light. In
short, she seems to have designed
the head as the cupalo to the most
glorious of her works and when we
load it with such apple of super
numerary ornaments, we destroy the
symmetry of the human figure, and
foelishly Icontrive to call off the eye
from great and real beauties to
childish gew-gaws, ribbons, and
bone lace. Joseph ADDISON.

latticed porch behind the house. He
mounted the steps, and beheld Net
tie HAYES, in calico dress and white
apron, her pretty hair falling in =,
simple, close net, her sleeves pinned
back from her pretty, round arms,
her soft hands lying busily, and her
sweet voice singing merrily, over a
huge ironing table, with a well filled
clothes basket beside her.
"Good morning, Miss Nettie, " said
George, close beside heE, too, with
his hat lifted. Nettie started, and
nearly dropped her iron.
"Why, Mr.. Herbert, did you drop
from the clouds" she asked, blush
ing and smiling in pretty confusion.
No, | came the legitimate way
by the front door; but neither ring
nor knock could rouse you, so l took
the liberty of coming round"
81 could lot hear the bell" said
Nettie, ''and you might have knock
ed half a day without our hearing it.
Our girl Is sick, and ma and l have
the work to do for a day or so till
she gets better; so Pm helping with
the ironing to-day, you see. Come
into the house, Mr.. Herbert. and !
will make myself as entertaining as
| can"
''You could not be more so than
you are - cried George, ardently
''But don't tempt me to come in, for
would be sure to interrupt your
work too long | came so very ear
ly just to ask if you would like to
attend PATHS last concert, tonight
There is an attractive programme
and l should ke to enjoy it with
you; will you go"
"With great pleasure" replied
Nettie; 81 was wishing this morning
to go, but did not think l could be
cause papa is out of town, and
could not 90 alone.n
"Then am doubly glad / thought
of il, )" returned George. 81 will call
early SO that we can secure good
seats. And now l will wish you
good morning, Miss Nettie, and not
interrupt you any longer
Declining her second invitation
into the house, George touched his
hat and hurried away, with a very
light heart.
'Pure gold found once, ''he unused,
as he walked in the direction of his
Office. "Sweet, neat and industrious.
Pretty as pink, I always thought.

girl,not afraid or ashamed to be seen

no more, Pm sure; so Miss Nettie
Hayes, if you don't become the mis-
tress of the handsome mansion in
Belgrade, it won't be for the want
of asking, I'll warrant" :"
Whether the "asking" was done
as they went to or came from the
concert that night, | can't saw, as
did not go; but if not then, it was
soon after, for in three months there
was a wedding, and pretty Miss Net
tie became Mrs. George Herbert
Miss Lulu, Miss Dorsey and Miss
Baldwin were all invited, and wert
there, lovely as angels, though they
did wonder at George Herbert's bac

of them for the asking.
And George never exnlained.

From the Cincinnati Gazettt
Hampton in the Ascendant.

The order of President Hayes to
have the detachment of United
States soldiers withdrawn from the
State House at Columbia, South Car
olina. We suppose there is no lack
of understanding as to the, effect of
this. The Chamberlain Executive
and the Republican Legislature, no
matter what their legal rights may
be, are kept in existence alone by the
presence Of United States soldiers,
and by the understanding that they
will protect them against violence.
The great body of the whites. and
of the intelligent and property-hold-
ing class, as well as of the low class
of whites, and the military organi-
cation, arms, and the determination
to rule by any means, are on the
other side.
No violence will follow this with
drawal of the United States soldiers,
for it would be vain for the Cham
berlain government, no matter what
its legal rights, to attempt to main
tain itself. 1t would only cause use
less bloodshed. When the United
States soldiers retire the Hampton
organization will take the govern
ment, and it will be done as really
by military force as if Hampton had
marehedlnto the State House at the
head of his troops, with drums beat
ing and colors flying, and arms fixed
to put to slaughter all who opposed.
Therefore we are not able to say
that the withdrawal of the United
States soldiers restores the civil au-
thority or makes a cessation of a
government sustained by arms.
1t is to be deplored that states
manship could not have agreed to
some plan of settlement by which a
government would be set mp by the
forms of law. In a true sense we
suppose that no election was held in
South Carolina, but an election has
been recognized by counting the vote
Of the Electors of President of that
State. A Democratic committee of
Congress has reported that the
Hayes Electors were fairly elected,
but the Democrats dispute the cleo
tion of Gov. Chamberlain. Hamp-
ton claims the Governorship, aud
