Its not surprising that the statesmen and editors
who feel that they have been called to take special
charge of the movement 10 nominate General Grant
should be moved with patriotic Indignation against
the friends of other canddates. According to the
theory proclaimed by the recognized ,rongtheuers-
in-chief of the Grant movement, the country needs
guardian, and tho ex-l'resident Is the only cit-
zeu strong enough and wise enough to act
in that capacity. 1t follows. therefore,
that opposition TO this movement is in
the nature Of treason against the Sta.e or
4 crime against social order But while the logic
of the attitude toward other Republicans assumed
by the friends of General Grant is not disputed, this
conclusion is so uncomfortable that people feel the
more constrained TO deny the premises. Neither
Blaine nor sherman nor EdmundsIs put forward as
"A Saviour of Society-ccrtanly not as sOci-
etv's ono and only auonted SaWour-and
therefore the friends of these gentle
mon find it easy TO admit that it is pcssi-
bic for good Republicans to oppose any or
all of them without necessarily deserving to be
treated as alien enemies. Upon the whole, this old
fashioned way of looking at the matter IS the pleas
autcr and General Grants friends would make
more prosperous Roadway with his canvass If they
rested his claims on some other basis. II IS difficult
to persuade the sclf-goyeruing and sei-rcspccting
masses that there IS ouly one name given whereby
the country can be -ayed.

the possible nomination of candidate recon-
mended chiefly by his wealth. 1t is whis-
pered: "Mr. Tiden will not allow any OF his
"chief rivals to be nominated; if he cannot sue
1" coed or chooses to withdraw. he will probably
"cause some man like English, OF Indiana, or
Payne, Of Ohio or English, OF Connecticut
ito be nominated for President. with another
81 from the same class for Vice-Prcsident." A
ticket composed of fifteen or twenty
millions, named Payne and English or
English and Payne, would make the
canvass exceedingly pleasant for the party
workers it is reasoned. whether 1t could be
elected or not.
1t is said by influential Democrats, too that
Mr. Tilden is not likely to be nominated II the
Republicans put up strong candidate. IN that
case, they believe, the combined mOney-bags
viii be called into requisition. But " If the
Republicans. should nominate Grant or some
" other man whom it would be comparatively
easy to beat" say these Democrats, then
we may think it safe to let Mr.. Tilden be
nominated" 1t may perhaps occur to many
Republicans that the astuteness and dexterous
manipulation of Mr.. Tilden may account for
the zeal OF some Republican managers to put mp
General Grant, without regard To the WISHES
Of the great majority Of Republican voters.
In any event, it appears from Democratic
statements, the Democratic party has an ugly
prospect before it. If it dominates Mr.. Iilden,
there will he boiling in New-YOrk, and a seces-
sion Of Independent voters everywhere. IF 1t
dominates any conspicuous rival of Mr.. I'll
den, the candidate will be stabbed under
the fifth RIB by the clique of Cipher Alley.
And it, finally, some outside candidate, con-
spicuous mainly for bis wealth, should be
fastened upon the party by Mr.. Tilden's infiu-
ence, notice is served upon the Democrats by
The Ner- York UorH that there Will be trouble
in this State, precsely as if Mr.. Tilden HIM
self should by chosen instead Of somebody
presumably his fayorie OF tool. Exactly how
the party is going to win, il it cannot safely
nominate Mr.. Tlden himself, any OF his friends
or any of his rivals, is not yet clear.

NEWCOMERS will rub their eyes on reading
the specuations of the Brooklyn Bridge engl-
neers in another column as to whether there
will be room for the Brooklyn hOrse-cars IN
Park Row, and whether the City Hall Station OF
the Elevated Road may not need to be moved.
The unfoished Brooklyn Bridge has become SO
familiar that it was natural to think we were
to have il in truncated state always with U.s.
like the National debt or the Indian question,
and that the disputes Of tie officials would be
handed down to remote generations, like the
quauels OF diplOmatists. But the mid WINTER
has so FASTENED work on the bridge that the en-
gineers believe travel over it will begin ina year.
if the appropriation is not delayed That there
shOuld be 10 delay will, we presume, be the
opinion alike of the opponents and OF the
friends of this work. At the beginning there
were wide and honest differences OF opinion
about the wisdom of It, but the time for diner
ences passed long ago Every day of delay now
merely wastes the interest ca the vast sum IN
vested, which should be made actively useful at
the earliest possible time. The bill pending IN
the Legislature should pass with the necessary
promptitudc especially IA those in charge OF
the work hope to DE able to conclude 1t WITHIN
the sum to be appropriated.

There is the Od-tme Southern flavor in the

demands of a bowling Northern mob so far as

scolnfully told to regard the nobler example of

rioters of Hamburg has been sent to the United

difficult TO remember just when the people OF
this section showed Senator Batter such extra
ordinary marks of respect and esteem But the
spirit of these articles is the point Murder Is
no crime, if committed by Southern gentle

high moral sentiments, should be treated with
steady contempt. They are easily cOwed. 1t Is
the old spirit Of slave times-the spirit that

A Hint to Young Husbands.

Love and appreciation are to a wo'
man Whist dew and sunshine are to n
flower. They refresh and brighten
her whole lite. They make her strong
hearted and keen.sigh,ed in every
thing affecting the welfare of her
home. They enable her to cheer her
husband when the cares Of life press
heavily upon him, and to be a very
providenc, to her children. To knew
that her husband loves, and Is proud
of her; that even her faults are looked
upon with tenderness; that her face,
to one at least, is the fairest face in
all the world that the heart which to
her is the greatest and nohest, held
her sacred in its utmost recesses above
all other women, gives strength, and
courage, and sweetness, and vivaclty
which all the wealth OF the world
could not bestow. Let q woman's life
be provided with such an influence,
and her heart aud mind will blossom
and sweeten, and brighten in perpetu-
al youth.

THE PAINTED BELT.
THE sr0RY or AN UNFORTUNATE Dss-
TlsT cr CANTON, CONNECTICUT,

There was q widow lady OF com
paratIve youth aud many persoaal at
fractions residing In Canton, who had,
for some time, unsuccessially endeay'
ored TO induce the local dyntlst 10 ac-
cept tho rank and emolaments Of her
late husband. The dentist, however,
was a cautious man, and although he
greatly admired the widow, declined
to commit himself, About q month
ago Esquire Smedley, Of Canton, gave
a party, which was altogether the
most brilliant affair oi tho kind within
the memory Of the Oldest inhab'anl
The parlor Of tho Smedley lmansion
was crowded with guests, who over
flowed into the hall, and rose grudual-
ly to the top Of the staircase, lu the
course of the evening the widow be-
came somewhat faint, IN consequence
oil the heat, aud requested the dentist
TO conduct her into the garden, where
the fresh air might revive her. II
did revive her to an immense extent,
and the dentist found the garden such
a pleasant place that he decided to
remain with his companion and smoke
cigar.
When the pair returned to the
parlor curious phenomenon attracted
unusual attention. Tho widow wore
wide belt beautifully ornamented
with u painted vine OF some un-
determined botanical species. The
dentist wore n black coat, and to tbs
amazement of the public, one side OF
his right sleeve was seen to be decora'
ted with the green stem and leaves
and the brilliant white and yellow
flowers OF tho vine that ornamented
tho widows belt. The conclusion
drawn by wicked and heartless people
was inevitable. There vas no pos
sible defense to be made. The widow
wisely stepped ont and went home
and the dentist followed her example,
burning with rage and wishing that
all Canton had but one back tooth,
that he might draw it with an old'fash'
ioned turnkey and without tho use Of
an@sthetics. Of course the widow
lost no time in pointing out to him
that there was but one way in which
he could repair this indiscretion and
undo the injury which he had done
her, and accordingly he was within
week brought to the altar, where he
expiated his fault with much tortitude,
and furnished an awful example Of the
wickedness of painted belts.

How THE NUTMEGs Grow. N

How THE NurMEas GRow.-Nut-
megs grow on little trees which look
like little pear trees, and are generally
over twenty feet high. The flowers
are very much like the lily OF the
valley. They are pale and very tr'-
grant. The nutmeg is seed Of the
fruit, and mace in the thin covering
over this seed. The fruit is about as
large as peach. When ripe it breaks
open and shows the little nut inside.
The trees grow on the island OF Asia
and in tropical America. They bear
fruit tor seventy or eighty years,
having ripe fruit upon them at all
seasons. A fine tree in Jamaica has
over four thousand nutmegs on it
yearly. The Dutch used to have all
this nutmeg trade, as they owned the
Banda Islands, and conquered all the
other traders and destroyed the trees.
To keep the price up, they once burned
three piles OF nulmegs, each Of which
was as large as a church. Nature did
not sympathize with such meanness.
The nutmeg pigeon, found in al! the
Indian islands, did for the world what
the Dutch had determined should not
be done-carried those nuts, which
are their food, into all the surround
ing countries, and trees grew again,
and. the world had the benefit. -

Biblical scholars have been long
ready to say that the 1sraelites crossed
on :. line of shoals made bare by the
action of the wind. The Scri riptures,
in fact, attribute the parting OF the
water TO this natural agency. The
miracle consisted in the foreknowl-
edge of the event, and in the timing
of the interposition Of Moses, so that
the recession of the flood and its re.
turn occurred at the exact moment OF
his command. If We accept the theo-
ry of Brugsch. all these elements OF
the supernatural will remain.-[The

A statement comes from South
America that a singular property ol
tomato leaves has been discovered by
fruit grower. Having cut down
some tomato vines, he used them as q
mulch around the peach trees. He
soon discovered that the circulio,
which was destroying his fruit. had
abandoned the trees surrounded by
the tomato vines. Following up the
accidental discovery, the free use Of
tomato vines proved perfect protec.
