MARCH q 1870.

THAT A PRETTY FOOT should cause
considerable amount of misery to one or
two admirers, is one of the frequent oc-
currences in the yearly events that may
be calculated upon with reasonable cer-
tainty. But the case of the killing of
young Curtis, in Richmond, on Tuesday,
an account of which will be found in
another column, conveys one of the most
shocking warnings that has fallen under
our notice for some time. The parties
concerned, we apprehend, have reaped
an amount of pain and remorse that will
60 with them to to their graves and the
only one to escape already sleeps in his
grave. The young lady that brought
about his death will never cease to regret
her conduct. II she was offended at
Curtis attentiveness in the shoe store
where he was employed, and did not like
his compliments of her ''pretty foot" or
want him to see it, she should not have
returned to the place Of business where
he was. She was perhaps right in con-
sidering his attentions an affront, but for
that very reason dignity and gentility
both dictated that she should have kept
herself out of his presence when she
wanted to have her foot neatly fitted
One will find it difficult to excuse Cur
tis' friend who urged him to the course
which resulted in his death. He GER
tainly proved anything else then peace
maker.

Archbishop PURCELL's LIABILITIES
FOUR MILLIoNs,-A dispatch from Gin
cinnati says Bishop Purcell has made an
assignment to his brother Edward. The
amount of liabilities, as reported to the
old trustees, whose trust expires with the
assignment, and adding the suits which
have been brought in court, amount to
$4,052,000. Other claims NAV vet he
outstanding, but no estimate can be made
of their amount, as the holders have not
filed them, and what few account books
Father Edward Purcell kept are pracli.
ly valusless.
The valuation placed OH all this prop.
erty is only about 100000, and some OF
it is morgaged for half of its value. The
mortgages and accrued interest amount
to over 5000, 900, so it is safe to saw that
the property is to-day worth not exec ed
ing s5O0,OO0 The other property trans
feried consists of notes and mortgages.
1t has been claimed, though, all along
that they would foot up from $3.50 900 to
100000. This will prove a severe blow
to the Church.

For once the Democratic party in Con-
gress, by its aggressiveness and determin-
alton in behalf of the right, is in a posi-
ton to command the respect Of the
country. 1t was resolved by the Demo-
cratic House that henceforth elections in
this country should be free from the in
terventlon Of armed soldiers and that
ballot-boxes should no longer be at the
mercy Of bands of Federal Supervisors
selected to manufacture victories for the
Republican party. In other words, it
was agreed that the infamous political
machinery set in operation by the Re-
plblican party to secure its own perpe-
tuation should be swept from the statutes.
Clauses seeking this end were attached to
two of the most important Appropriation
bills-the Array and the Legislative
Executive and Judicial-and a Republi.
can Senate was asked to decide whether
it would submit to the wipins out of its
odous legislation or sacrifice the Appro.
priation bills.
True to their instincts, the Republican
leaders clung to their political safeguards
knowing full we'll their yalue-and per
consequence, We are to have an extra
session of Congress on the 18th. The
new Congress will meet and adjourn and
wher it adjourns there will be no Jurors
test oath, no soldiers to yex electors at
the polls and no voice of the Federal
Supervisor, at five dollars day, heard in
tle land. OF course the Republican
organs will denounce as revolutionary
the conduct Of tho Congress just closed
will predict diretul results and will make
a disagreeable noise in the political will.
derness but the fact will remain that the
Democratic party has been once more
united and inspired with hope. 1t.
representatives have shown something OF
the spirit and FIRE which should actuate
leaders of naturally brave and hones
organization. 1t has seen its old enemy
bound and gagged in the halls of legisla
ton. 1t will see in two or three week.
the Republican party shorn OF the powel
which i. cruelty set up by tyrannica
means to divert the will of the peopl
and thus inspired and rejuvenated it will
60 into its next battle with vim an,
ardor In fact We may say that th
Democratic party feels to-day like gian
refreshed with aquart of new wine.-

The DEMOCRATS DETERMINED ON
RErEAL.-A Washington correspondent
says :-"Tne political talk is all of the
extra session, the organization of the two
Houses, the fight which is sure to come
over the election laws and the probable
length Of the session. 1t is certain that
the Democrats in both Houses Will iusisl
upon the immediate repeal OF the laws
wiich permit Federal Interference in
State elections. The Republicans have
forced this issue, and the Democrats have
| accepted it. As Atkins said in conversa.
tion to-day, 'It is war 10 the knife
The Democrats will pass separate bills
repeating the obnoxious laws. If the
President vetoes them then amendments
will be attached to the appropriation bills
and not dollar will be voted until Fed.
eral interference is prohibited and
honest juries assured. The length ol
of the session in such an event will de.
pend entirely upon the stubbornness Of
the President. The immediate object ol
political interest, however, is the contest

TALK, READ AND WRITE ENGLISH.
We lake the following wise and excel
lent advice from the Reading Eagle. 1t
could not have emanated in a source bet
ter prepared from experience to give it :;
and it comes in time when 1t is needed.
We have in Wilmington quite large
German population, and we find mauy of
our most influential and best citizens
among those needing just such advice as
t le Eagte has laid before its readers.-
The German population of Reading and
vicinity is very large, and yet the Ger.
man language is passing away. The in
PRODUCTION OF German into the public
schools would therefore be unwise and
expensive. If the teaching and speaking
OF German in Reading, or the efforts to
retain the German language has been
failure there and is found to be unwise
It must prove more of failure here
aud we believe it a duty to Germans who
are raising children to suggest to them
the Importance of abandoning the idea OF
teaching their children German in school,
until they have first learned the English
language. The Eagle says:
Advocates of The German language
claim that more people in America speak
