1'KIISOXAL AND POLITICAL.

SENATOR PRATT spoke at Gosport yes terday. SENATOR PRATT and Mr. Dunn should have a large audience at the Wigwam on Friday afternoon.

SRCCU-H in politic.-), as in everything else, the result of labor rightly directed. It is voting the last man that swells the aggregate result.

TJ-IE Journal of Commerce, a sober and generally temperate newspaper of Gotham, falls in with its exasperated contemporaries and cries out that the census of that city is "a sham and a fraud."

ELLIS H. KOBERTS, the able editor of the Utica Herald, has been unanimously nominated as Republican candidate for Congress from the Twenty-first New York District. This is a nomination (it to be made. He is universally credited with the possession of every requisite that could be required of nn acceptable Representative. »i

GKOKGIA Democracy starts off boldly on the revolutionary tack which was so fatal to Seymour and Blair in 186S. They declare that the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments are the product of "Radical revolutionary violence, and should be disregarded." They propose to elect candidates who are disqualified by the Fourteenth Amendment, and to abide the issue. Such, at least, is the advice of the Chairman of the State Executive Committee, Linton Stephes. This' is tho same rebellious spirit shown by the Tennessee Democracy in rejecting a resolution declaiming the right of secession.

WE ARE not less pleased than astounded to record that a New \ork Judge has made a bold and decided stand against the alarming growth of the practice of compounding felonies. The Judge in question has issued attachments for the arrest of citizens who refuse to appear as complainants in cases where the men who robbed them are arrested and brought into court by the authoritiesJudge Bedford very truly said that the great current of crime from which society is now suffering could only be checked by citizens seconding the efforts of the police and the courts.

FOUR Republican victories have followed each other, within a few days, in regular succession. Vermont spoke first —21,000 majority Maine, with a small vote, lu' a majority proportionate to old figures, comes next. .Everything one way. Colorado follows, with a clean Republican ticket. And, finally, Wyoming has repudiated Democracy, by changing a Democratic majority ofl,43G, two years asjo, into a Republican majority of 200, this year. This is as far as we shall be able to get until other States hold their elections. Tt will do, though, for the fall start.

EDITORIAL article* showing how fields were won, and predicting the location o^ coming battles, have a special feature of the New York papers. The Boston Adrertiser says: It is understood that Mr. William F. G. Shanks, who won his first literary laurels as war correspondent of the Ilerald, is the strategist of the Tribune: that Charles G. Shanks, his brother, has the same position on the Ilerald while William II. Hulbert, "the elbows of the Mincio" man, plans French victories for the W 'orld and Mr. Jennings, managing editor of the Times, is the writer of the military prognostications published in that journal.

THE Tribune regards it as settled that the total population of the United States will be found, by the census now almost completed, to exceed forty-one millions— again of fully ten millions within the last ten years, though the war must have cost us fully half a million lives. As the victims of that war were mainly men between 20 and -10 years old, their loss will tell heavily on the increase of our numbers during the next two decades. The population of the Union is quite as large as was generally expected, but most of our cities had over-estimated their growth respectively, and are impelled to find fault with the census-takers and their returns.

JUDGING from the speech of A. Johnson, at Gallatin, last Saturday night, the attitude of this veteran Democrat is rather mixed and curious, but any one who knows him can see at a glance that he means business. He modestly but plainly told the people that a United Senator must be chosen by the next Legislature. It is evident that he has begun a campaign in that direction. He sees the old Whig element in the ascendancy on the Conservative side, as demonstrated both by nominating Brown and by reiecting the Greenville platform, lie declares war on the whole concern, gives the alarm that secession and treason are in danger of being renewed under those adverse auspices, and thus bids for the "loyal" vote. Whether the Radicals will join him in bringing out and supporting an "independent" ticket, or whether he must fight out his own battles as the head and front of a third party, we shall not attempt to say. In any event, the coming canvass in Tennessee will not fail to command a good deal of outside attention. It may have something to do with a general party reconstruction in the South. Let A. J. go bravely forward. Probably he may again become entitled to the sympathetic rc-spect of the "truly loval."

ENGLAXK':* troops are still armed with the old muzzle-loader, notwithstanding the assertion of the War Minister.that I not onlv was the British armymipplied with breech-loaders, but that there were on hand many thousands of these arms in the various arsenals. Mr- Card well's assertion is almost equal to Geneial Le

BoeuFs boast that France could carry on the war for a year without purchasing so 1 much as a gaiter-button. England may fi have all the breed' loaders that Mr.

Cardwell claims, but they certainly are I not in the hands of the men who must use them in the event of a war. The I most of Britain's regular soldiers have never yet seen—much less handled—any infantry arm except the muzzle-loader.

THE Chicago Republican finds that there is one comfort which the Democracy enjoy quite in advance of their opponents. It is patient hope. About this lime of every year, the papers begin to predict a "general feeling of dissatisfaction" in the Republican ranks. The people are "tired of extreme measures" and a 'devolution is impending." These prognostications have been so often reported, that the people look at it as they do at a comic almanac, to see if it is about "teething time." The prediction is sure, but the "revolution" is stationary, or runs backwards, contrary to all precedent. The sweetest party molasses has not caught a silly Republican fly in a single State, as yet, nor will it.

IT appears from a sort of semi-oflicial statement in the British Medical Journal (London) that the ex-Emperor is in a very debilitated and doubtful state. "A source worthy of the highest confidence" communicates this fact, and the medical journalist adds: "We learn from this source that Mr. Prescott Hewitt, of St George's Hospital, lias visited the Emperor professionally. The consequences of the painful and wearing vesical and pros tratic affections of the Emperor, added to the fatigues and trials, bodily and mental, to which he has been subjected, during the recent campaign, have been such that at any moment very startling announcements might be made- A recent report by cable confirms this. Though only in his sixty-third year, Louis Napoleon's wear and tear of mind and body have been unusually great.

THE New York Times suggests that "while the employment of Chinese as domestic servants aaay be in many respects desirable, it is as well to avoid undue enthusiasm upon the subject. A Boston agent for securing the services of these has rsany applications for them, but he is obliged to cease advertising the business for an unforseen reason. Chinamen are very clannish, and object to being separated from their countrymen, preferring to engage themselves in companies. There are said, also, to be some disagreeable experiences at times, on the part of family employers, in another way. They find that Chinese servants are very peculiar as to temper,—quick to take offense at slight and, to the white man, unintelligible causes. And when they do get into a passion, resort to weapons of some sort may not unfrcquently be looked for. At all events this is what some people say who profess to know them well. That Chinamen can be ferocious, the Tien-tsin massacre shows clearly enough. Without, therefore, discouraging the new movement in regard to domestic service, it may not be amiss to suggest seeking fuller information upon the subject than we now have."

"MANY find it hard to understand," says the New York Times, how a great nation like France can be overrun in a month, so as to appear almost as powerless as was degenerated Rome before Alaric or Attila. But, setting aside the advantages of superior strategy and military organization, there are reasons for the phenomenon that an inspection of the German newspapers easily discloses. We read in one, for instance, that the entire clerical force of a certain public office is away with the army in another part of the same journal we discover that all the assistants of the Berlin Chemical Laboratory, seven in number, are also absent in the field. We find elsewhere that the lectures at the University in all the principal departments have been discontinued, including the military, agricultural and architectural schools. The upper forms of the grammar schools, even, have sent many of their pupils into the ranks—one of them no less than eighteen out of forty. From these details, and many more like them, we gather the true solution of the mystery. Germany practically made a levy en masse at the outset, instead of waiting to do so until she had fought a doubtful or losing campaign."

Slimmer Travel a Means of Grace. I can't but conclude that going into the country for the summer is to speak pul-pit-wise, a "means of grace." I think my readers and 1 have settled the fact, that through bad country bread our virtues are to be perfected. That's one item in our spiritual favor. Then those who have prided themselves on their purple and tine linen are frequently abased by seeing others who have far more resplendent rainbow raiment. This, again, is wholesome humiliation. Again, those persons who have pride of a different sort, which prompts them to wear very ordinary clothes, as a contrast to the peacock style, are checkmated by finding somebody who is much more pre-Rapha?-lite than themselves in the way of costume. Then it is good for those who have always a servant at their elbows, to be obliged to wait till their neighbor or vis-a-vis is served. It is good for the beauty to find a prettier girl than she. It is good for the wife to see a crosser husband than her own. It is good for the husband, by comparison, to ascertain, as he generally can, that he has been signally blest in his choice of a wite—notwithstanding he may mentally say to himself, "I won't acknowledge it to the upsetting of my authority." It is good for the spoiled child to have its plaything quietly appropriated by a bigger one, even though he howl to high heaven, and his nurse and his mother hear him not. It is good for the modest bachelor—if there be any such creature—to find some intelligent woman who has tact enough to discover and bring to the light—and, better still, bring to his own knowledge the fact—that "he is a very agreeable fellow." It is good for the opinionated to be gentlv snubbed. It is good for the narrow sectarian to find a gracious sweetness and magnetism in one who holds a diflerent faith. It is good for the old maid to see married persons whose life is not all sunshine, that she may comfort herself with unction while waiting for the "coming man." It is good for anybody and everybody to leave the "comforts of a home," that they may know how to appreciate their own corner, their own easy chair, their own comfortable mattress, and, if it is not too stale a subject, their own sweet bread, when they get back.— Fannv hern in Xrv orl: ledger.

LET GERMANS READ.

Tlic Democracy Stigmatize them as "DutchPelicans," "Dutch Nincompoops," "Dutch Corruptionists,"— and "Dutch Pismires,"—King William a ml Hismarck "Hoprolwlos."

The following i* a letter from a L'tiuocrat published in the ('Itiongn Times, of Saturday last:

ROCKFOKH, III., September 13.—I have watched with a gicnt deal of interest the mutations of "loyal" sentiment on theFranco-Prussian cmbroglio during the last thirty days. The avidity with which the radicals of this part of the State espoused the cause of those two old European reprobates, King William and Count Von Bismarck, evinced a measure of gullibility nowhere to be found save in the radical organization. These radicals could not brook any degree of violence to the delicate .sensibilities of the lager-beer element, and they could not think of wounding the feelings of such illustrious "Dutch pelicans" as Count Von Hessing and Count Von Seigle. They could not for one moment think of placing a wet blanket upon the political aspirations of the cohort of Dutch corruptionists, who were acctiscd of having stolen Chicago dry a few years since, and who have been managed, through the intense loyalty of the dominant, party of this State, to till a large number of the best paying offices with Dutch nincompoops. But now a change is coming over the spirit of their dreams. They see an army of Dutch pismires beleaguering the capital of the French republic. They see the line of demarkation separating France and the European powers of republican tendencies, from Prussia, England, and the European powers of monarchical tendencies. They see that they have been fear fully sold out, and would now give all their uniforms and equipments to get out, of the Dutch dilemma.

The unification of six or eight Dutch provinces into a grand empire, as the rival of England, is not quite what they bargained for. They hoped, by the aid of the Dutch vote, to bridge over a popular election in this country, the tide of which was fast setting against them. They expected their bull to gore Louis Napoleon, and not the republic of France. They expected to rair,e the cry upon the stump this fall of Democratic sympathy with French Catholicism and French Imperialism.

They did not expect to give the Democracy the lead in sympathy with the grand idea of republicanizing continental Europe. Hence their chagrin.

The Times has pursued the manly course. The Dutch of this country have proven a most stupendous fraud. The record." of the War Department at Washington show one continuous line of shelved "Dutch Generals" during our late row. Chancellorsville was repeated on a smaller scale where ever Dutch battalions were placed in battle array.

They vote just as they fought, on the side offering the most lager beer and the most money.

It is useless for the Democracy to pander to the Dutch vote. It is a curse to any party. It will drive away more decent Republicans than it will bring strength to the support of the rotten hulk of radicalism. Then, I say, keep up the fire. Let American Democracy send greeting to Republican France American Radicalism continue to sympathise with the forthcoming Dutch empire.

WEBSTER.

(lien. Woodford's Services. The Tribune of the 10th has the following in relation to Mr. GREEX^EY'S successful competitor for the gubernatorial nomination in the Empire State:

The IIro/'M infers that Gen. Woodford's ervices in our late war were insignificant, because his name does not figure in Mr. Greeley's "AmericanConflict," while Gen. Slocum's does. The reason *is not far to seek. Gen. Slocum was educated at West Point General Woodford was not. General Slocum entered the service in 18G1 as a colonel, and was at once adopted into that inner circle or "ring" whereof McClellan was the focus, and so became a Major-General before he had done anything to warrant his promotion but we were then in great want of general officers, and had to use such material as there was. And Gen. Slocum made a respectable oflicer, though he was not "one of the four great

Generals of the War," as the World used to proclaim him. He learned to be honest and faithful in the Republican ranks and, though the McClellan ring turned his head and made him turn his coat, he is an honest man and a pretty good fellow yet. Gen. Woodford entered the service at a later dav, on a lower plane, and under far less lVvoring auspices. He rose to be colonel a regiment and (after its evacuation by the Rebels) military commandant at Charleston, S. C., the cradle of the Rebellion. lie did all the work required of him—did it conscientiously and efficiently—and having been "faithful in few things," is about to be made "ruler over manv." We trust the II' 'orld will be prepared to accept the situation.

The Marriageable Aire.

It is Mrs. Stanton who says that no woman is physically capable of marriage before the age of twenty-five. Everyday experience refutes her statement, but that is of no consequence while the coming generation gains years and experience so rapidly. Indeed, it is said that in the world of fashion children over the age of seven no longer exist. After that they are gentlemen and ladies and a glance at the juvenile hops now so frequent at the watering-places would seem to confirm the statement. The female Lilliputian has her soft body squeezed in corsets before swaddling clothes would be ordinarily improper, her little round toes pinched and twisted in high-heeled boots, and her hair kinked about iron and wood during sleeping hours in order to produce a wavy effect which nature generally de nies. The male infant is subject to less excruciating appliances, though when the trio meet in the ball-room to imitate the flirtations and dissipations of their elders, there is little choice so far as arti ficialitv is concerned. They are little men and women of the world before their time, as their conversation, if you happen to listen to it, their blase indifference and their studied manner, show. It is to be hoped that the Stantonian age will come early, by some kind dispensation, to these juvenile butterflies of our latest civilization, or one must shudder to think what a blank life after twenty-five would present to children who are grown at seven and have exhausted the resources of fashionable amusement at twelve years of age.—Boston Post.
