GEN. MoLELLAN's ROMANCE.
An Interesting Story of His First Meet
ing with His Wife.
FROM Tie CIe0eland Leader.

IRON tie Cleveland Leader.
very interesting story was told about
year ago about McClellan's first meeting with
his wife. He married her, you know, in 1850,
and the relations of the two during the past
quarter Of a century have been the happiest.
Mrs. Mcclellan accompanied her husband
everywhere and was q helpmeet in the true
sense Of the word. She was very proud OF her
husband, and was very sensitive to any ridi
cule OF him. He met her in church in Bal
umore IN 1860, one cold Sunday morning. He
was then travelling through the United states
on health tour, and had reached Baltimore
saturday night. The next morning ne left
the hotel and went TO the nearest church. The
usher took him up to the front and seated
him in pew which was already occupied
by very handsome young lady. The sermon
was prosy and Mr.. Mcclellan devoted himself
concluded that she was fair. AS he caught a
fuller view of her he decided she was beauti
full, and when at last he saw her features and
her eyes looked into his he felt that he had
met his fate. As they passed out of the pew
the young lady blushed under McClellan's adj
mirlng gaze. He followed her home and
found that she lived in one OF the handsomest
houses of the city. On inquiry he found that
this house was owned by Gen. X. b. Marcy,
the father of one of his schoolmates at West
Point. Mcclellan at once called upon young
Marcy and through him obtained an intro
PRODUCTION to Marcy's sister, Ellen. He be-
gan to paw her attentions and found upon
acquaintance that she improved. His love
was reclprocated. They were engaged and
in May, 1860, they were married.

II is difficult to understand why the
Mugwump journals insist that the Presi-
dent did not favor the election OF Gov.
Hill. lie either favored his election or
else he is a very great hypocrlte. In an
article on Gov. HIPS election, the New
York Times, speaking OF the President,
says: "If his difficulties and his per-
plexities increase beyond even his ire
mendous powers OF endurance, he will
scarcely find consolation in the reflection
that his own vote, however reluctantly
given, has contributed to the result"
What reason is there for thinking that
the President voted for Gov. Hin with
reluctancei He was under no pressing
obligation to vote for him. He could
have remained in Washington and at
tended 10 his routine duties il he did
not want TO see him elected. The
fact that he travelled 10 Buffalo to vote for
him is pretty good evidence that he was
anxious FOR his election. He not only
voted tor him, but he gave $1,000 TO aid his
canvass. Two Of his Cabinet officers gave
$1,000 each, and his private secretary gave
$500. What better evidence Is there
needed than this that not only the Presi-
dent, but also his chief advisers we're
anxious for Gov. HIPS election?
The defeat Of the Democracy in New
YORK would have been construed as a con-
domination OF the Presidents civil service
policy, and the pressure on him TO force
him 10 abandon IL would have been re-
doubled. The Victories Of the Democracy
have strengthened him. To the spousmen

course that originally mapped out for
myself. because tue people are satisfied

A Mistake Corrected.

The Washington correspondent of the
New York Herald, speaking of the con-
test between the rice growers and the
brewers over the broken rice question be-
fore the Secretary of the Treasury. SAYS
that the 'rice growers will make per-
sonal appeal to their Senators and Repre-
sentatives to urge legislation this winter.
requiring granulated rice to pay the
higher rate Of duty. They recognize. il
is said, how utterly helpless they were on
the eve of the fall election in New York.
when a ruling in their favor would have
arrayed the entire brewing interest
against the Treasury Department. and di-
rectly or indirectly against the candidates
supported by the administration. When
political ends are no longer involved
the Southern rice growers hope 10
get the ruling they claim they are enti-
tied to-"
There is a point in this statement from
the Herald TO which attention ought to be
called, and a mistake that ought to be
corrected. The point is that the autnori-
ties hesitate about giving a correct inter
probation to a law because 1t will effect
injuriously great interest. The law is
so clear that there is no doubt that broken
rice ought to pay the same duty as whole
rice, but decision is made in the interest
Of the brewers, which damages the rice
growers, simply because the brewers
WELD great political influence in locali-
ties where they can make their influence
felt. The law ought to have been inter
preted strictly, and II the brewers felt
agrieveo they might have gone to Con-
sress with their grievance. IL is unjust
TO force the growers to go there when the
law is on their side.
The mistake In the Heydld'S dispatch is
that II leaves the impression that the
growers are seeking something which the
law does not give them. They are not
asking for any more protection than the
law, rightly interpreted, affords them.
What they are contendng for is Just
what Congress- agreed they ought 10 have
to put them on footing with other pro-
tected industries Of the country.
There are few protection journals in
the country, edited by men who eyade the
truth in order to appear TO make point.

Explanations Of Davenport journals.

Explanations ofDavenport Journals.
Some of the journals which supported
MIR. Davenport for Governor in New York
are beginning to understand that the
people are becoming tired of the efforts
that are being made continually to secure
political victories by stirring up fee ling
of hostility towards the south. The New
\ ork Tribune, it is true, says that the
Democratic victory IN that state was due
to the fact that a very large percentage of
the Republican voters remained away
from the polls, but it does not explain
satisfactorily why the Republicans
showed such a lack Of enthusiasm and
interest.
The New York Times and the E5eninq
Post, however, say pretty plainly that
Mr.. Dayenport's defeat was due as much
to the sectional tone which the Republi-
cans gave to their canvass as to anything
else. The Post says that tle Republican
platform was bad from every point OF
view, and that one Of its worst features
was that which "thrust into our faces
again the affairs Of South Carolina, Geor-
gia aud Mississippi"
The New York Times, in speaking of
the Democratic victory and It's causes,
says: "Then to crown this series Of
damaging mistakes the narrow-mnded
| Foraker was imported to disgust decent
! Republicans with his rantings, and drive
back to the support Of Hill thousands OF
| Democrats who would not and could not
| act with party which, in its official ex-
! position of principles and in its choice of
campaign orators, showed purpose to
heap undiscriminating censure upon the
Democratic President, and to hold every
thing Democratic to be abominable. In
this work Of consolidating the Democracy
and swelling its vote, Foraker was aided
by the senseless speeches of Gen. Carr
and the harangues Of Logan"
1t would be difficult, doubtless, to make
these shakers Of the bloody shirt believe
that their efforts in behalf Of Mr.. Daven-
port did him more harm than good. They
must acknowledge, however, that they
did him no good. The doctrine Of hate, as
preached by Sherman and Foraker, may
have been appreciated to some extent in
parts of Ohio. but it certainly was not APP
preciated in New York. The fact is the
country is tired OF sectional strife and Ill
feeling and wants peace and harmony.
Thinking people at the North, in view of
the Outrages on the ballOt-bOX at Cincin-
natl, Chicago and other places in the
Northern states, are not disposed to be-
lieve that the North is IN a position to
lecture the South on ballot-box outrages.

Their spells DER our juvenile fancies?

To lead in the ton md the dances?
Oh, where are the old-fashoned girlsS
Or have they grown horsey and fast,
With manners as bold as their chances,
These girls who wore shakers the last
Time we hunted together for pansies?
How their eyes used 10 pierce us like lances,
Looking out from a tangle OF curls,
With smiles of such generous eXpanses;
oh, where are the old fashioned girls?
The grubs have their chrysalis cast
They are making the most of their chances;
With tho bellies Of the season they re classed
Their dress all the fashion in France is.

As they cOldly sweep by in the swrs

Newly, beautiful young lady of that place,
died about two weeks ago very mysterously.
The facts regarding her death were sup
pressed, and not until to-day did the truth
become known. On her dying bed she told
her terrible secret to her family physi-
clan under his promise to guard her
confession sacredly, bat to-day he was pre-
vailed upon to disclose the truth. For some
months past young man named Joe Hicks is
SAID to have been paying devoted attentions

month afterward he, according to this story,
began administering medicine and the young
