ing order. A "Creche" is, an establish
ment where working mothers may leave
their infants during the day to be cared
or. 1t keeps during the hours of work
the infant of fifteen days to that of three
years of age. The "Creche" IL visited
daily by a physician and lady inspectors.
No infant Is allowed to pass the night in
one. No infant is'admitted II sick.
There are over thirty ."Creches" in
Paris and several Of the suburban
towns. They accommodate. from forty
to one hundred infants daily. Some are
gratuitous; others require a small fee.
Each "Creche" Is constructed after
certain fixed model, and contains a
garden, covered yard, play room, dining
room, kitchen, linen room, provision
and toilet room, and sleeping or cradle
room.
The "Creche" was first established
between thirty and forty.five years ago.

these devolved on two attendants--a man
and woman.
Here were fifteen two year olds In the
covered yard. The ground was covered
with mats, on which some were sitting,
some standing and some toddling about.
Ofcourse at this age they couldn't talk
much with each other, and the faculties
hadn't ripened sufficiently to develop
sny regular plan Of amusement. They
looked like children Of poverty and toll;
but they were clean, and all wore pin

THE DEATH OF Mrs. EAToN.-By the
death Saturday afternoon of this lady the
last of the links connecting the present with
the past has been broken. Mrs. Eaton was
the most romantically remarkable woman
our country ever produced, much more so
even than the late Mrs Patterson Bonapartc.
She was sectionalized as far as birth and lo-
cality were concerned Born near Bladens-
burg, and reared in Washington City, Che
national capital was the scene of her entire
life. Her beauty was marvellous, yet insig-
nificant when compared with her wit and
keen knowledge of men. When very young
she married Mr.. Undertake of the navy.
He died, and some years after she was
welded to General Eaton of the army, and
subsequently minister to Spain. During
Jackson's administration Mrs. Eaton did the
honors Of the White House. Mrs. Jrckson
being an invalid, and exercised SO eminent
an authority that she made and unmade
Cabinets at her pleasure. She was politi-
cally and socially the most famous woman
of America, and will ever stand alone as
such, for the existence of any one paral-
lelled is nowadays an impossibility.
At home and abroad she has been cele-
brated into prominence through the press.
Fraze''s Magazine and Blackaooods have had,
in the years gone by, the romance of her life I;
and at home the once famous society novel
Of Washington life, by Mrs. Lasselle, called
"Magdalen, the Enchantress," embodied her
as the heroine.
Oddly enough, and Economically too, this
novel opens with the deceased a young girl,
being crowned as "Queen of the May in
PARROTS woods, by Rock creek. Those
woods are now Oak Hill Cemetery, and
there the dwelling-place of the soul flown
was buried on Tuesday.

BEAST BUTLER.

Republics like individuals often become
ungrateful..
We have no doubt but that the result of
the recent election in Massachusetts, has fully
demonstrated to Gen. Butler the truth of the
above familiar maxim. For the fourth time
he has endeavored to be made Governor of
the old Bay State. For the fourth time the
sovereign will of the people have proclaimed
against him.
And of all the defeats sustained in the
late elections that of Gen. Butler must be
the most gratifying to every friend of honest
government, every jealous adherent to party
discipline and every admirer and sup
porter Of pure and healthy morality.
A professional prostitute, his services have
ever been at the command of the highest
bidder--a political fillibuster and mendicant
he has all his life .pandered to the most de-
PRAYED and morbid elements of society, never
hesitating TO advocate or espouse any meas
ure which would tend to his popular and
individual success, caring not how vitiated
or infammable the material to which his
efforts were directed, and utterly regardless
of whatever effect it might produce upon
the rights of the people or the safety and
morals of the community. A militia Gen.
eral, he was melancholy failure and bur-
lesque--a military satrap, he issued his
tyrannical and vulgar orders with an inde-
cent haste abhorrent to every generous inn
pulse Of humanity as they were repugnant,
revolving and sickening to every refined SEN
timent Of modesty; he laughed at the re-
straints of law, jeered at admonition, scaled
virtue hypocrite," and legitimized every
species Of dishonesty and corruption.
Fer the past two years he has been at
tempting to raise up the toiling and down
trodden masses by the device of issuing
irredeemable currency. According to his
financial doctrine, leather bearing the gov
eminent stamp is as good as any other
currency for supplying the wants of trade
He very shrewdly left in the back ground
in his late canvass the cry for more
greenbacks, and, with his old time effront-
cry. he returned from cruise in the yacht
"America" and proclaimed himself the
champion and protector Of the poor man.
But in spite of his splendid audacity, the
scheme proved failure and he has been
consigned TO the shades Of private life. No
doubt but that bis late allies and defenders
will soon demand that he be returned to
Congress 10 look after the Confederate br-
graders" but IL we mistake not the times,
Butler win neyeragain figure in any national
Legislative body, or exercise any influence
over any future national administration.

The Frederick Examiner, of this week,
heads adouble column article with this line :
"a Solid North Sends Greeting to Solid
South" This attempt, by a journal in a
Southern State to nurse and foster sectional
hate and to encourage continuance of the
ante-bellum enmity of the North against its
own section, is worthy the contempt it must
inspire an true patriots with. 1t certainly
does not show strong love of the Union
