WASHINGTON. Jan. II. 1879.
EDITOR NEWS; In the absence OF po-
litical news Of q legislative character. I
viii venture to give some OF the gossip
eurrsns In political circles relative to the
neat Presidency. 1t is remarkable that
at this early day there is almost as much
talk and interest upon the subject as IL
the country were on the eve OF u Prssi.
DENTAL nomination. The eligibility Of
candidates are earnestly discussed. The
names Of Blaine. Thurman. Gonkling.
Bsyard. Seymour. Evarts. Hendricks
and Grant are most prominent in these
discussions. But. OF all the names on
the Republican side. that Of Grant
seems TO be cherished with more una.
nimity. Whatever may be the feeling
in the Republican port at large. the ali.
sent ex-President stands first in the
hearts OF that compact. powerful dis.

lievs that his return to America will be
hailed with " much enthusiasm as was
the return Of the First Napoleon from
Elba, and that the continuous ovation
which will carry him successfully TO the
leadership OF his party in the next Presi-
Dental campaign. bids fair to rival the
triumphant procession OF the great
Emperor from fresus to Paris. Whether
the smile will be completed by a Water.

SOMETHING WRONG Som Ew HERE
The following strange but oertrue tale is
vouched for by the occupants of the
County Clerks office: In October a
German with his "intended" came to the
Office Of the Clerk Of the District Court
and obtained marriage license. Last
week the German returned, bringing the
license with him just as it was received
over, and "tought dere must be some
dings de matter nit the LIENS" The
horrifed official asked him if he had
taken his vrow before a Squire after lcav -
ing the Court House in October. He
answered, Nix; ust take the papier
and mnen vrow und go NIT dc house,
und stay to hiine all the whiles." Hastily
swallowing glass of water to brace his
nerves, the official directed him to go
home and get his wife, and before night
should overtake him, TO endeavor to
reach the nearest Justice of the Pence,
some wise and good men, whose knowl-
edge of law and adaptation of means to
meet the end in view would assist him to
make such amends for his ignorance as
was possible in the case, after the lapse
of so many mometous months. lie de-

THE FATAL SLUMBER.-Th is a
little story that goes the rounds of the
American press that n ade n great i'm
preston on me as father. A father
took his little child out into the field one
Sabbath, and it being hot day, he lay
down under beautiful shady tree. The
child ran about gathering wild flowers
and little blades of grass, and coming to
his father and saying, pretty, Pretty!"
At last the father fell asleep, and while
he was sleeping the little child wandered
away. When be awoke his first thought
was, "Where Is my chld?" He looked
all around, but he could not see him. He
shouted at the top Of his voice, but all he
heard was the echo of his own voice,
Running to little hill, he looked around
and shouted again. No response. Then
going to precipice at some distance he
looked down, and there, upon tho rocks
and brlers, be saw the mangled form of
his beloved child While he was sleep
ing his child had wandered over the pre-
eipice. L thought, as l heard that

TIE YoUNG STUDENT" A Russian
Nihilist" tells, in the North American
Revieo, a striking story. A. young
student, a relative Of the writer, had,
WITH few friends, formed a Literary
Society, in which the works Of conten>
porary political economists, publicists
and philosophers were read and debated.
The secret police denounced this society
IS q revolutionary organization, and the
young student WAS imprisoned and
condemned to Siberia. All possible
influence was brought to bear upon the
Gar, but in vain, and at last the
young mans mother meeting the Gar
enc day in the Summer Garden,
knelt and implored her sons pardon,
asserting his innocence. Tho Gar
seemed touched, and promised to give
the youth personal interview. The
latter vas brought 20 his Majesty the
next day, and the Gar, forcing him to his
ksees before an image Of the Saviour.
exclaimed Can you swear before the
Aim ighty God that neither you no. your
associates had any criminal des ign against
my life Can you swear that you believe
in the holiness and eternity OF the Russian
autecracy ?" The surprised prisoner
answered ~ can swear to your Ma
jesty that neither nor any Of my friends
had the rsmotest idea against your safety
As to the autocratie form Of government,
/ cannot conscientiously swear that I
believe in its eternity. The history Of
other countries teaches US that the time
must ceme, evan in Russia, when the
people themselves will take part in its
government" The Gar tenderly em,
braced the student, and giving him a ring
drawn from the imperial finger, said
" This isa token Of respect from your
Gar. Y ou have been sincere and truth
ful 10 nae, and there is nothing / hate so
Innch as lie." He then approached the
writing table where lay the Students
sentence Of exile, and, with one stroke of
the pom, signed the paper ~ pity you

''y you are an honest man, and an honest
ran true 10 his convictions, is more dan
gerous to autocracy than an unprincipled
rascal. Therefore, / must punish you,
though never was this duty more painful
TO ne than now. God bless you, my son,
and judge me merciful ifI should appear
TO be in the wrong" Then once more
embracing the student, he dismissed him
