Chief Justice fancy and the bred
Scott Case.

f.. Two letters in the October Century
are interesting as showing that Chief
Justice fancy has been misunder.
stood in relation to his decision in
the bred Scott case. One of the let
tiers says in part; "The chief justice
merely asserted a fact, and did not
decide that the negro ''had no rights
that a white man was bound to res
pect.' Judge fancy never held such
an opinion and it is an insult to his
memory to make such an assertion.
"Allow me to state some facts rela-
tive to Judge Taney's feelings tow
ard the cUlored race. Some thirty
years before his death he freed his
slaves. This proves that he Was no
lover of slavery. o. u occasion.
talking of the colored people. with
much emphasis he said: Thank
God that in one place all men are
equal in the church OF God. I do
not consider it ary degradation to
kneel side by sids with a negro in
the house Of our Heavenly Father
On another occasion, speaking of the
bred Scott decision, he remarked,
that no matter what might be his
feelings in regard to this question of
slavery, his oath bound him to inter-
pref the law under the constitution
This was his higher law-the oath he
had taken when he accepted the po-
sition as chief justice of the United
States supreme court. A purer, a
more conscientious man never wore
the ermine; a more faithful servant
the government of the United States
never had. 1t was his fidelity to his
duty that cost him his lite, as I per-
sonally know. I knew him init
mately for several years He spoke
with sadness of our late troubles,
wishing from his heart that some
statesman would rise up and prevent
the fratricidal contest

The BLAINES,
And Their New House at Wash.
1ngtOu.

The Washington correspondent of
the New York World says: The
other day q prominent society lady
said, In commenting on the BlaineS
giving up their mansion and moving
into u smaller house. that she thought
the house had been q disappointment
tn them in many ways. Ii had grOwn
larger in building than at first in
tended, aud consequently took more
money to run 1t, and closely following
that Mr.. Blaine had met with losses.
This lazy fuitner asserts that Mrs.
Blaine was n cordial as her husband
to gentlemen. but she was net fond
of ladies' society. 1t has always
been their custom to give dinners to
the gentlemen associates of MI.
Blaine, the excuse for not inviting
their wives being that their dining
room was too small, and in order to
invite in turn all of Mr.. Bialne's
friends, it was impossible to include
their wives. On these occasions Mrs.
Blaine and Miss Dodge Gail Ham,
ilton) would be the only ladies pres
ent.
When the b aines moved into the
new house the dinners were still con-
tinued, and the ladies still left out.
At this some of them began to rebel,
and told their husbands they need
not accept invitations unless the Ia
dies of the family were included. 1t
has always been a favorite remark in
Washington that the Blaines were
very polite, but this would hardly
indicate it, for the wives OF Dromi-
inent men often have great influence
in politics. with which social matters
are closely connected.

Greeley's Farm.

The changes of life, however, were
soon felt in Greeley's little circle.
Miss Fuller went to Italy and wit
messed the capture of Rome by the
French, while Greeley's family was
visited by the cholera, which carried
off that lovely boy. Greeley thus
mentioned this bereavement in one
of his letters to his former c0ntribu-
tor. "Ah, Margaret. the world is
growing dark around Us. You mourn
that Rome has fallen; we mourn, for
Pickle is dead" Greeley then aban-
doned this blighted spot, aud as the
Harlem road had been sufficiently
extended he bought in 1853 y build
ing lot just large enough for a house,
being determined to test the place be-
fore charging his purchase: Find
ing it both convenient and healthy,
he gradually increased his domain
until instead of the original one
eighth Of an acre it included seventy
eight acres, being the largest farm
ever worked by a New York editor.
Most of Greeley's improvements were
chimerical. He built a dam, for in
stance, in order % supply the house
with water. After $1,000 had been
thus invested the dam broke and the
was abandoned. Sixty thou
sand dollars were invested in ina
provements, and We. the farm to-day
IL not worth one-third of that
amount.-N. Y. Corr. Troy TEn'es.

The Worst OF II.
1"A NewpOrt Auuarell.r1

["A Newport Aquarell.'
The mere suffering which a man
undergoes at the hands OF a coquette
is not in its first effect SO greatly to
be deprecated. 1t is in the cOnse-
quences that lies the deepest wrong
which the i%nsincere woman doe to
the man who loves her. For the dis
trust of her whole 8 x which grows
upon him, and the conviction that
neither she mol her kind are worthy
of the best that is in his nature, she
is responsible. The disdain which
he may feel toward her cannot great
~ injure him. But the spirit in
which he regards the tendency of his
nature which looks to woman for the
truest support of his life, and the sys-
tematic hardening of those qualities
in him which reach out instinctively
to the feminine side of humanity,
are sole hurts which are not healed
when the pain of the deceived love
are passed. His judgment of the
whole sex cannot fail to be biased by
his experience of the woman who
has most deeply interested him.
Thus it is that the coquette. by low
ering the whole standard of woman
hood in the eyes of man, Injuries her
own sex as we'll ss the other.

A Dscomdtted Dude.

One of our Newport swells tells
this story of himself. 1t is his pet
story. 1t impresses different listeners
differently. Sometimes I think it
doesn't impress them exactly as he
expects it to, but it is bis way of in
forming the world that he dresses for
the evening religiously. I'll try to
put it in his own words: "I'm deuced
absent-minded, don't you know?
