NOTES AXI) CLIPPINGS.

THE DI'NS-YOOHHEES joint discussion at the Wi-mam this af.ernoon will doubtless attract a very large audience. 1V.OTACTION' crea erf a reciprocity between eve.y brancli of our national industry. It is a broad, general policy, embracing the whole Union.

T.ni Liui-ville Con. i.r-Jov. ail says that the negro qui tion is not a .et of Democracy, and that the effort to oiganize while man's parly has failed.

Til Cincinnati Time* hope? Minnter Morton will consider the present as a favorable time for settling those little bills o" damage- we have against Great Britain.

THE St. Louis Demozral exhibits an alarming elevation of the dorsal vertebraat what it deems an uncalled for interference, on the pai of tne President, \\iih poli-.ical affairs in that Sfate.

IT will be twenty years this fall since the first woman's rights convention in this country was held in Worcester, .Mass., and the anniversary of the movement is to be celebrated in Apollo llall, New York, October 19 and 20.

WENDELL L'liii-L.rs, in addi.ion to being the candidate fo:' the lYohibi.ion and ibo- Reform pa.\ ie of Massachusetts for Governor, will, it is said, also be the standard-bea-er of the Woman Sufi", a i-'', who meet in Boston on the 29ih to no'iiinaie a Candida.e.

Ir a-dei iy to he hoped tli it no officioiM interference will prevent the ful fillinent of the Kilkenny-cat-ish disposi tion evinced towards each other by the two branches of the New York Democracy, The whole country could dot'btless con template with grate complacency the suit of such a fight.

ABOUT this time every year the Dem ocr.itic pre-s usually blossoms out wi "straws," accompanied with the sapient observa.ion that these are indicative the way the wind blows. This fall they have failed to see any favorable omens in the current which set in some time ago from Maine, Yermont, Nebraska, and Wyoming.

THE Democracy in the West is calling loudly on Tamaiany for help. Tammanv however, has a little light of its own on hand, and besides that it is questionable whether the Sachems would be willing to send the money, without also sending men, to teach Western Democracy the distinctive doctrines of the Eas'ern Democratic belief. Says Tammany: If you want our financial aid, you must also accept our financial theories. We value our funds at their purchasing power.

FEW

weeks ago we nouced the war

which the Southern press was waging upon Northern school books. In Louisville, Kentucky, as a natural sequent, a "Jlisto'v of ihe United Staies" has been adopted as a toxt-book in the schools of that city by the Board of Trustees, which ignores the Declaration of Independence and devoies a goodly share of its pages to apology for the rebellion and a justi (ica ion of its leaders. Now, if the South could supply its schools wiih native teachers, what a grand work it would accomplish!

THE New York Times thinks that England, dov. on her knees before her money bags, will be obliged some day to admit that even the plan of alternately (ruckling to foreign Powers and insulting them will not render her secure. A great danger menaces her at this moment. If France forgive slier for her daslerdly be havior during the present war, Frenchmen must be made of different stuff from what they were. Prussia will never be reluctant to deal her a humiliating blow. If Russia and Prussia have a sec et understanding with each her, ts seems extremely probable, troubles in the East will arise very soon after this war is over.

SAYS the Philadelphia Inquire.': "Since the perfidy of Louis Napoleon, so cruelly consummated in December, 1S51, we have had little admiration to express for that man and now that he has fallen from the high estate to gain which he sacrificed so much, we are content to leave him at rest. Hut certain newspaper corre-pon-dents, who saw nothing but grace and majesty on the part ot the Emperor, now delight in describing the prisoner of Wilhelmlitvhe as 'bloated, billious, yel-low-eyed, awkward,' and so on through the whole c.iego-y of uncomplimeiua-v adjectives. TVs is in .he worst possible state there isceriainlv no good to be attained in er.aggc-aJng the defec in the personal appearance of ihe fallen sovereign. It is biU throwing nl at I he body of a dead lion cev.iinlv n^i.her a dignified or in inly occup.i ioi.

BATTLE-F1ELD HORRORS.

TJIP lc:nS and Wounded -Ilarron itig Nriws itiid incidciils.

A correspondent with the German army, writing fiom before Metz, August 27. says:

One boy struck me he was about seventeen, and what is called a "Fahnrich" or ensign. It is in this army necessary for an officer to serve a year as fahnrich, before they get their commission as lieutenant, which is the first grade in the military p.ofession. lie was lying with his sword in his right hand, pointing toward the enemy, having .alien on his right side, and must have died instantly as the left hand grn ping his left side told too plainly where the fatal bullet had struck him.

He had his glove: on, which fi st at tracied my attention, and his face, which was turned upward, betrayed none of .lie emotions that it must have exhibited as the bullet struck him, for he looked wrapt in the softest slumber.

I was, during one part of the ac.ion, standing near some Hussars, who were in reserve. The sun was pouring iis rays upon us, and around us on every :ide lay the wounded. One poor fellow cried to us for water: "Comrade, for God's sake, give me water—one fiitle -op. am on lire! I am on fire! For Go 1's sake, give me but one drop—only wet m.v lips!" and another near him could only hold his hands up in ayer, and poin. to his lip*. A good-natured Hussar, touched by ihe appeal, got off his horse and ran to them with his water-botile hewn* in ihe act of raising the man's head, when a shell fell within a yard of them, and, bursting, blew the whole three to atoms.

The sad havoc that was made in the cavalry throughout the whole of the 16th was fearful and I saw a Cuirassier regiment, who, in their brepst-plates, white tunics, and high boots, looked the very beau-ideal of heavy cavalry, come out of the action numerically about two squadrons strong. Their Colonel ma.ched slowly at their head, utterly overcome at the loss of hi« gallant men. He had live officers with him out of twenty-live that had ridden out wi.li him that morning.

On the 18th, one of the most brilliant actions of the day was admitted on all .ssde.s to be the storming of St. Privar, which was taken af.er ihe most terrific cannonade, by which it was simply riddled to pieces.

No.hing throughout co ild be braver than the French troops, and they are by all allowed to fight remarkably well, the fault lying in bad generalship and inferior artillery, as compa.ed with the opposing force. Around this particular place the dead lay so thick that one could scarcely walk one's horse th- ough them, most of them killed by shells, which in fiict, as may be suppo id, the most ghr=tly wounds. There wrs a French officer still lying in a ditch by the roadside the morning after the battle, when I went '.o look over the place again. He had been shot through the chest, and in his left hand held a letter that he had eviden Jv long carried with him. I dismotin.ed and disengaged it from his hand, and am happy in being able to return it to the sender, who cannot but rejoice to think thai his last thought in this world was of her.

The Story of the Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Armies of China. George Alfred Townsend in Chicago Trbunc.

The story of Ward, as Captain Nash told it to me, was as great a drama in its way as that of Narses, the Eunuch, or of Henry Morgan. "He was a good sailor," said Captain Nash, "bred up here to the east'ard, Salem-way his parents poor people, raised by the water-side, and they were not able to give Ward any schooling. lie put to sea right early, made several voyages to the Indies, to China and to the whaling seas, and was always remarkable for his consuming anibi ion. He w? a good mate, when he got so high, and there 's no work too arduous for him. 'Tpeared like as if he wa never so happy as when he was fussing about something. He wps alius talkin' about war, hopin' there'd be a war with England, and saying what he meant to do in such a case. He had wonderful confidence in himself. Of course, we didn't think much about his notions before we began to hear of him in China. We thought he wrs one of those illiterate, peculiar, earning sort of fellows. He marru a poor gi.l like himself, if I remember right, but left her lnme, and then he went out to China to boat up the river-. 1 wrs in China at the same time, and, like Ward, I carried cargoes for the Emperor's party in the civil war there, moved troops, carried s.ores, and got good rates lor my ship, and 1 got rid of it and came home to Rhode Island.

When I went out again I found Ward Commandc-in-Chief of the Imperial armies. They gave him a whole city, which he took for the gift of it. He had married the sister of the Governor of Shanghai and had about a hundred Chinese wivrs. He had adopted their, eligion, was a prince, rolled in money and au.lio, iy, and was the idol and miracle of all hat part of Asia. The admirals and generals of European powers there looked at his success with amazement. Anilli e.rae Yankee sailor who could ha dly w-ire a letter, and had come there wi houl commendation, or introduction, he \v -s the widest-known European in China. S ill the"e didn't seem to me anything so wonde'ful in this, because the Chinese are superstitious anyway, and a man like Ward had self-resou-ces and audacity enough for anything. "1 went to see hiiu, and he was as cordial as ever. He made me sit down and akea glass of grog, and he told me how had all come about. 'You see he discovered that the Emperor had all the money and the rebels il the success. He w- New England man enough to lock out for the inoney, and he had confidence enough to risk his ife against anv odds. First, he went out and showed that he a lighting man. Then he got it spread about that he was man who had a charm which pro.ee ed im against any danger in ba.tle. .He was a pushing fello.v-, and his success justified his etensions, and linalthey promoted liini, through successive anks, to be commander-in-chief. He had too much ambition to be scrupulous about particulars, and lie renounced both his family in Ame ica and his religion though he hadn't much of that—to be married and made Chinese. "'Why,' said 1, 'Ward, you ain't changed much in appearancej for all vonr distinction. If you don't get killed here, as 1 'spect you will, you'll be a sailin' a ship again-t the English yet.' Says 1: 'Nov, you take my ad rice "salt down some of your money "and slip awav lrotu this. Go to a civilized conn, ry, get your wife, and be a man of consideration. Says he: 'No, 1 don't want monew I want power. I mean to be Emperor of China, or rule the Emperor. There's no bullet that can kill me.' It was infatuation, you see. He was dead set to be a ruler of the earth. Rhode Island want big enough for him. "Well, as 1 was

comin' down to the

pint. Ward—he spread and spread. "The fiction he began about bein^ charmed' and proof against bullets, he got to believe iu himself. "He lacked edication, vou know. He cou! nft spell, and, therefore, his .Ve!l bust. The spell was bigger than the speller.

•'They hurrahed and went after him like heathens. Directly five balls went chock-a-block throngh him. He said: 'I'm shot had this time. Take me to iI rear.' (All this happened down about Ningpo.) He w:» dic-sed .hen, a3 always in p!a:n, rough American clothe like a farmer, and he had never worn a uniform. They got a notary and witnesses at his request, and he scratched off much of a will

he could dictate in hid

condition, and t!ien he died. I saw him after death, and he looked weailier-beaten, brown .and rough, in hisold worn clothes, grimly asleep and full of scars. He had lived this d^perate and perilous life nearly in vain. The Chinee Government claimed all his properly, on the ground that, having married in China, he wr no longer subject to American protection. This led to consular court proceeding, and I believe that Ward's folks never got much of any .lung out of his great wealth. "They came to me and asked me to take the body back to New York. Now, if the Chinos .shippers had known that there was a corpse on ny ship they wouldn't have trusted a chest of tea in her. The body of oid Waidwps smuggled on board in a common box, marked 'curiosities' anu placed under the stone ballast at the bottom of the vessel, I delivered it up to some of lii.s relatives in port, and they carried it back to the little graveyard among hi.s fathers. But he made Bhina shake for years. This was in 1SG3." "A wonderful record, indeed," said I, "but already growing obscure." "Oh! Ward was a little more romantic and recklcs, but not a bit more adventurous than many of our merchant captains. Hundreds of them are sailing now under other (lags. Something they couldn't control—laws, or politics, or something hps made 'em poor and exiled them. They wr- raised on the ocean, and in their day there they was cocks of the walk."

Woman's Advocacy of Free-Love. Mrs. Sarah F. Norton's articles on the marriage ques.ion, in Woodkuli ajlin's Weekly, received pretty severe handling from the Troy 'linuand richly deserve it, too. They are filled wi.ii vile suggestions, and we say it wi Ji sorrow when we declare that we do not know of a paper edited by a male journalist so vile that it would print such abominations in is columns. Wha.ever may be Mrs. Col. Blood's personal view.s of marriage, she owes it to herself as a journalist to keep her paper free from immorali.y. Surely, the women of to-day have fallen on strange times. We may well look to ihe future of oiir daughters wi.h fear and trembling when women a,e found so brazen as to declare in pablic speech and through the press that they desire to see mar-iage abolished, ands,a.e their convic ion that "as In.cllectuality increases the marriage ie bccomes i. ksome." When, like Mrs. C.oly, women find subject ma.ter for thei. deiica.e feminine pens in .he disgraceful love lLeof August Com,e, and are Still recognized

leaders in the

cause of saa.age, we shudder at the picture of such emancipation for woman as they would condemn her to. Women of. this sort have made the New York Suffrage Association and the So.osis a byword and a hissing of decen, people, and have, in fact, by disgusting the earnest modest women, literally broken them up.—-Y. i'.
