THERE is much complaint on account of want of female help at the cotton mills j.n Massachusetts.

THE campaign is progressing favorably for the Republicans in New Jersey, and there is a prospect for a good victory in that State.

MR. BOOTWELL regards discussions of protection and free trade, in the abstract, as useless, so long as the necessities of the country make a high tariff indispensable.

A NEW HAMPSHIRE COURT has decided a railroad coupon, although marked good for thirty days only, and that period had expired over three months, remained good until it was nsed.

GENBRVT, WADE HAMPTON has pub lished a letter advising the Southern De inocracy to have nothing to do with thfe National Democratic Convention. He doei not want the Southern people to commit themselves in advance to any pre-orthodox principles. He argues that it will berime enough for the Democra cy of the South to act when the platform is announced and the candidates selected In other words General HAMPTON is not in favor of "the New Departure," and virtually threatens the South will not ac cept such a plank in the platform of 1872

THE rumor that Senator SUMNER will be restored to his old place as Chairman of the Foreign Committee of the Senate gives general satisfaction among Repuhlicans. While it is felt that no wrong was done Mr. SUMNER by the action of the Senate, it is undeniable that the credit of the country suffers from the elevation of CAMERON to his place. The San Domingo matter which gave rise to all those unpleasant personal feelings that led to the Massachusetts Senator's retirement is now a thing of the past, and it wonld be simply idiotic to cherish animosities growing ont of it.

THE English Government, which al ways had some sort of a system in civil service, lias just amended its regulations for testing the qualifications of candidates for civil office. Hereafter the applicant must not only pass an examination before a competent board, selected for the purpose of deciding upon his fitness, but, having received a certificate, he must enter upon a probation of six months in order that he may practically show by his conduct and general capacity for business that he is fit for the place he desires to hold. If he fails during his trial to convince the board that his certificate was properly bestowed he is invited to resign- The Philadelphia "Inquirer" is confident that a law of this sort if put in operation here would save the country a hundred million of dollars annually, but it would prove very disastrous to the present generation jjf office holders. Most of them would be compelled to go to work.""*"*

AFTER a careful survey of the ample field, the editor of the Philadelphia "Press"—who ought to know the Democratic party pretty thoroughly—concludes that this organization has been everywhere convicted of fraud, forgery, and the theft of public moneys. Wherever it has been in power there has the debt been increased, taxation raised and corruption and licentiousness prevailed. It is not alone in New York city that the party is guilty of these practices, but Wherever it is entrusted with power. The journals that belong to the rotten concern attempt to offset the damaging exposures of their gnilt by counter charges of peculation against Republican officeholders. These in every instance have been exaggerated or entirely fabricated. Where there have been defalcations they are always individual there is no ring within the Republican party—and in every case where the gnilty party could be reached he has been punished and complelled to disgorge his

The Mormons.

Affairs in Utah are getting serious. The question to what ought to be done, is a most important one. The whole past history of the Mormons shows conclusively that they will not siifreader their peculiar institution without a fight., and a bitter one. Illinois and Missouri both bear witness to the heroism of which these fanatics are capable. If, then, the present attempt to coerce them into adoption of proper notions of morality is persisted in—if it is not merely one more of those spasmodic, tentative movements, thoughtlessly undertaken and precipitately abandoned on the reappearance of the old Mormon resolutenes— we may ex* pect a desperate struggle to ensue. All former "Mormon ware" will sink into insignificance beside that which impends. It 6eems to us that the time for this crusade is ill-chosen. The circumstances never before seemed favorable for the extinction of the great heresy by natural causes. The building of the Pacific road, the influx of Gentiles, the rich mineral discoveries calling in an immense population from outside, and especially the schietn that is reported to exist in the church, ai£ all hopeful indications of the purification of the Mormon establishment from within. At the very worst, the territorial limitations pf the "Saints'" dominions would prevent their extending their empire in a dangerous way. And it is to be feared that if repressive measures

a/e

The Reason Why &

If the' old rale that "it is safe in poii tics to do what vonr enemy doesn't want you to do," is still in force, the Republi cans must renominate Gen. GRANT. It can escape no one's attention that the Democracy devote themselves almost exclu sively to attacks upon the President. Now there must be more or less insincerity in this concerted movement of hostility against the Chief Magistrate. If they believed him to be the weak, corrupt contemptible man that they every day describe to their readers, they would cer tainly desire above all things his nomina tion. They conld easily defeat such prodigy of' weakness, such a mon ster of vice. The man who is known to be a drunkard, whose hand is not stranger to bribes, whose brain is incapable of conceiving or working out a pats riotic purpose, whose aims are wholly selfish and sensual, goes not into the White House by the suffrages of the American people. Our "modern CALIGU LAS" stop far short of that elevated sta tion. There it no danger (hat we shall begin now to fill out "the truncated series of American Presidents with a race of transatlantic Csesars." The Democracy will surely succeed in 1872 if the Repub licans should be unwise enough to take a low, drunken thief for a candidate. And if the Democratic leaders saw any such tendency developing in the ranks of their antagonists they would not fail to encourage it by a discreet silence. What they do observe and dread is a tendency to nominate a man whom all their systemat ic slander cannot deprive of his reputa tion as a person of far more than average private worth and extraordinary fidelity and efficiency in every official position he has ever filled. It is Gen. GRAHT'S virtues. not his vices, that attract the enemy's fire. It is his strength, not his weakness that diverts attention to him from all other candidates. Is it because HORACE GREELEY would be a strong and probably a successful candidate that he is just now treated with such unwonted respect by the Democracy? Is it not rather because it is known that he might possibly be defeated, while with GRANT, re-nomi-nation and re-eleotion are the same thing? So with the few others whose namee have been mentioned in connection with the nomination. They are treated with respect because they are not regarded as at all dangerous. The hostility a Presidential candidate excites in the opposition ranks is usually in direct proportion to his strength. "gj

A. RECENT ELECTION, at Galveston, shows that the people of that section of Texas are fully cognizant of the wants of their large State, and are quite willing to supply them with as little delay as possible. The question to be decided at the polls was, "Shall the State grant a subsidy of $500,000 toaid in the construction of the Galveston, Harrisburg and San Antonio railroad." There were in favor of giving assistance to the enterprise 2,743 votes against it, 38 votes. This may, in all fairness, be regarded as an un. mistakable expressioa of the will of the majority. To develop the resources of Texas railroads are needed above all other agencies, and the Texans seem determined that their large and comparatively unproductive State shall now move forward on the road to progress and wealth.

Bontwell on Banks,

In his speech at Cleveland on Friday evening of the 29th ult., Secretary BOUTWELL said:

The tenth resolution of the Ohio Democratic Convention-declares that the banking system of the country is "unconstitutional, oppressive and extortionate. I do not propose to consider in detail the validity of these charges, although I haje no idea that the constitutionality of the system will ever be seriously debated, either before the people or in any court of law, and the other points are not important in the view I am now taking. Dttr* ing the war the National Banks were of great service to the country, and since the return of peace they have been of essential aid to the Treasury Department. It is true that the banks generally have been proaperoue, realising large dividends uponthe capital employed and it is also true that the power of Congress may be properly applied so as to secure a reduction of such profits with advantage to the Treasury and to the people of the country but this is relatively an unimportant consideration, as the subject^can be easily under* stood and readily managed by Congress.

this late day resorted to the Mormons will gain all the advantages arising from the assumption of the horrors of martyrdom. They cunningly place the abominable practice of polgyamy on the same fooling with the rest of their re ligious observances. The leaders would no doubt be flad to strengthen their failing cause by becoming the objects of what they would call "religious persecution." JOSEPH SMITH became a saint and martyr the moment his life was taken by the mbb, though before that he had been but a worthless vagabond. We fear •that the blood of old BRIOUAH YPUNG would indeed prove the seed of the church.. SMITH was canonized, YOUNG would be deified. Even his arraignment before a court of justice will unquestion ably revive the flagging zeal of his fol lowers and nerve their arms for the rep etition of the heroic deeds of the early days of the church.

It ought to be said, however, that the banks ot the country, without compulsion, have taken about $100,000,000 of. the new five per cent, bonds, and surrendered an equal amount of bonds bearing interest at the rate of six per cent. It ought also to be said that the banks under the present system have furnished a better paper currency than the country ever before possessed, with the exception of the Uni ted States notes, and as good, I believe, as is found in any other country in the world- -It should also be borne in mind that the banks are machines which aid the people of the localities where they are established to prosecute their business with less difficulty, and that the substitution of greenbacks for a National Bank enrrenoy would deprive large sections of the country of, facilities for 4oing business which are enjoyed by them at the present time, and which may be con tinued without serious expense to the public.

The policy of the Republican party, then, with reference to the National Banks, is unquestionably this: To. regulate and control them by legislation, so that their profits shall eorrespdnd snbetan tially to the ordinary profits of business dependent upon the investment or use of capital. Next, that the system shall be extended only so far as may be essential to the business interests of the country.

It must beadm|tted that there is ground for areumept in favor of the use of United States nptps as against Rational Bank notes but heljpve 3 thprftugh examination of the whole subject le^ds tp the conclusion that the banking system should be extended Only as its extension may be demanded by the growth of bus! ness in the country, and that the proportion of United States notes should be as great as possible, due reference being had to the interests of business in the extension of the banking system.

ANECDOTE OF B4R0NESS BUR DETT COUTTS.

BY MRS. LAURA CURTIS BULLARD.

To the Editor of the Oolden Age

Miss Coutts is no longer young, but she has a fancy that juvenile bonnets become her—which, it is scarcely necessary to say, is a mistake h"- In short, neither in person nor in arera is she the attractive woman she would oe, if nobility of soul, largeness of heart, and purity of character revealed themselves in physical beauty or were accompanied by an instinctive knowledge of the soucces of good taste, which unfortunately is not often the case.

But where Miss Coutts is known no one would ever give a thought to the minor and external defects of this truly noblesouled and generous-hearted woman, the fame of whose large liberality is as widespread as the fact that she is the wealthiest commoner in England.

Of course she is a well known and, most welcome customer at all the fashionable shops in London, but she is not so familiar a habitue of «the shops of Paris. During a visit to fhis latter city, not very long sinoe, sbe learned the death of a distant relative, and she, went to purchase mourning to the shop, the Trois Quarters, a large .-dry goods establishment something like, "to compare great things with small," our own Stewards.

She asked for mourning dress goods, and was shown by'one of the attentive shopmen to the proper department. "Please show this lady mourning stuffs," he said, "two-ten."

Miss Coutts made her selection, and then asked for mourning collars the clerk who had waited on her accompanied her to the proper counter. "Please show this lady mourning collars—twoten," said he, and left her. From this department she went to look for mourn" ing pocket handkerchiefs, escorted by the clerk, who passed her over to his successor, with the request, "Show this lady pocket handkerchiefs—two-ten."

As she had still other articles to buy, she was escorted from counter to counter, department to department, and every where these cabalistic words, "two-ten," were repeated by one clerk to another.

Struck by the peculiarity of this re frain, she asked the proprietor, as she left the.establishment, "Pray, what does two-ten mean? I noticed each clerk said it tothi other in your shop." "Oh, it is nothing," he replied "merely a password that they are in the habit of exchanging."

ButMiss Coutts was not satisfied with this explanation. Her woman's curiosity was piqued, and she resolved to unravel the riddle. So in the evening, when the porter, a young bojjr, brought home her purchases, after paying her bill, she said, "My boy, woild you like to earn five frans?"

Of course he had no objection to do so, and only wanted to know in what way he could do it. "Tell me," said the lady, "what does 'two-ten' mean. I will give you five francs." "Why, don't you know, ma'am?" said he, evidently amazed at her ignorance "it means keep your two eyes on her ten fingers."

The mystery was solved at last. All the clerks of the Trois Quartiers had taken the richest woniar in Great Britain for a shop lifter!

She tells the story with great gusto, and one of her friends, to whom she had related it in Paris, repeated it to me.
