THE "Journal" mildly suggests, that, to be successful, the Cincinnati nominations will have to be acceptable to the masses of the Democratic party. /,

I *. SV**

SAYS the Louisville "Courier-Journal :'J "The Democratic party lost its power through its corruption. The last four years of our ascendency at Washington were years of wanton self-elevation and wicked folly. The result was the revolt of the moral against the material nature a combustionf a division ruin and civil war." a1* s" 8s

THE Connecticut canvass is now the central point 'of political interest. The temperance people in this State have made the mistake of nominating candidates, and it is expected that their ticket will poll considerable strength. The Republicans have fairly opened their canvass, which will be as spirited as that of New Hampshire.

AN exchange thinks this a suitable time to mention the fact that the interposition of the United States authorities saved the lives and property of thousands of Germans who were in Paris at the outbreak, of the war. This act of hu manity is overlooked by the defamers of the Administration, who seek to found a political faction by an appeal to German prejudice, through a skillfully repeated lie. ...

THE New York Times" says the rate at which this country has reduced both its debt and its taxation is simply incomprehensible to. foreign financiers. The simple explanation of it is, that the Government has been conducted honestly, leaving the great resources of the.nation to be developed in confidence.

THE monthly report of the Commissioner of Agriculture is at hand. It shows a considerable advance in the price of sheep throughout the country, as com pared with February, 1871, and a decline in the price, of all other farm stock. In respect to the numbers of stock, as compared with last year, there has been a small average increase in all kinds ex* cept shfeep, the recent appreciation in the value of the latter not having yet had time to produce its legitimate effect by swelling the size of flocks. The report contains a synopsis of the proceedings at the late Agricultural Convention in Washington, and a large amount of mis cellaneous information of value to farmers and stock-raisera.

JOSEPH PAKBISH, M. D., the Media Sanitarium? and D. G. DODOE, M. D., of the Binghamton (N. Y.) Inebriate Asylum, have received a formal invitation from the British Parliament to appear before a committee of that body to give a detailed history of the workings of the Inebriate Asylums in America. ThePhiladelphia "Inquirer" justly remarks that Drs. PARRISH and DopoE are pre-eminent for their skill ifi the treatment of inebriates, and the institutions over which they respectively preside enjoy the confidence of the medical profession of the whole country. That the testimony which our distinguished countrymen will impart to the Parliamentary Committee, whose summons they have accepted, will be of great service in establishing asylums for inebriates in England, as a bill now before Parliament suggests, cannot be doubted by those who know their culture and experience in this, branch of physics."

A Feminine Opinion of the Masculines* A lady has communicated to the press the following concerning her views on the sterner sex: "I think it is too bad that we feminines can not dress or arrange our hair to suit ourselves without the gents trying to imitate us. If we part our hair in the middle, they must needs go and do likewise, so that we must either look as much like them as possible, or part our hair at the side. If we have small waists, they also put on stays and squeeze themselves almost out of shape. As they can not wear earrings or long curls, they wax their mustaches until they look like the PQints of .a needle attached to a compass they ought to wear tassels on the end of them, or bows of fancy ribbon to relieve the stiff look. think Darwin must have had one of our fashionable city gents with him when he came to the conclusion that man was originally one of the monkey race, for I think they certainly do look very much like it—even now, in this enlightened age."

Giant Powder in a Gnn. A friend of ours went out gunning a day or two ago. He had read about the explosive force of giant powder. He wanted to have his gun to shoot a long ways at some ducks and he put giant powder in the gun, instead of regular sporting powder. He firecl at the ducks and the whole of the breech of his shot gun gave way. Giant powder always bottoms its hole. Doctor McCormick had only to pick out a few pieces of gnn barrel from the face and arm of the sporting man to make things all right, but it is unhealthy to uset it in a shot gun.— (Jrnss Valley Union, March 6. ,Ui£f

Alfred de Musset.

Picture to yourself a salon pf1833, one of those famuos gaterings of the beauty, the fashion, the genios of Paris that glorified the Sunday evenings at the Arsenal. Poet3 and painters chatted together in the quiet corners Lamarline and SainteBeuve, Alfred de Vigny and Victor Hugo, with the other young journalists who had been setting the Seine on fire with the revolutionary notions in literature as well as politics, might be seen like wandering comets threading the mazes of the revolving crowd: Chateaubriand and De Balzac were there to represent sentU mentalism and realism, while M. Beyle (Stendhal) was gathering materials for his caustic critiques. His mission was to put down vajity, and he seemed to be looking lor it in every one he met, that he might.lmmediately attack it. "But I do not think he was maH6ious,': said one of his lady friends: "he gave himself too much trouble to appear so!"

Among all the brilliant crowd no one attracted more attention than a young man about twenty-three years of jge, slender, not very tall, and dressed with extreme fastidiousness. His abundant curls of light hair were most carefully arranged to set of his well 'shaped head, and his dark whiskers and almost black eyes gave vigor and force to his physiog* nomy. The Grecian outline of bis nose, and the noble arch of his forehead, increased his air of high-bred distinction, still further hightened by the fire of genius which lit up bhs expressive face. It was the Byron oiFrance, as his contefiaporaries loved to call him the poet of youth, as he called himself, of whom Heine said that at thirty he was a man with a splendid past, and whom SainteBeuve painted with one of his delicately felicitous touches as "Cherubino at a masked ball, playing the part of Don Giovanni^" the petted prodigal of Paris the best loved man in life, the best loved poet after death,—the brilliant Alfred de Musset. His life was like that of some lush young plant forced into premature luxuriance and bloom in the torrid atmosphere of a hot-house, wasting its'sap in one splendid burst of beatuty, to wither before it has time to keep the promise of its youth. Taine compares him to a blood-horse dashing across the country, stimulated by the odors of the flowers and the magnificent novelty of the vast sky, to frantic effort, which destroys everything before him, and will soon destroy himself. "He asked too much of things," says this acute critic: "he wanted to drain life in one fierce and eager draught he would not gather, would not taste its grapes, but tore them away in one cluster, bruised, pressed, and wrenched them off, and was left with stained hands, and thirst as ardent as ever. Thence those sobs, echoed by all hearts. What! so young, and already so weary! So many precious gifts —an iqfellect so fine, a tact so delicate, a fancy so mobile and so rich, a flame so precocious, so sudden a blossoming of beauty and of genius, and at the same instant, anguish, disgust, cries, and tears! What a medley! With the same gesture he adores and he curses. The eternal illusion, the invincible experience, are side by side in his soul, to struggle and to rend it. He has grown old, and he is still young: he is a poet, and he is a skeptic. •The Muse and her tranquil beauty, Nature and her immortal freshness, Love and its happy smile,—all the crowd of divine visions has scarcely passed before his eyes when we see hurrying up, amid sarcasms and curses, all the spectres of debauchery and death. Like a man in the midst of a feast who drinks from a chiseled goblet, standing in the foremost place, amid applause and the blare of trumpets, with laughing eyes and joyful heart, warmed and quickened by the generous wine which courses through his veins, and whom all at once we see turn pale: there is poison in the bottom of the cup: he falls with the death-rattle in his throat his feet beat convulsively upon the silken carpets,'and all the feasters watch him with terrified eyes. This is what we felt the day when the best-bSloved, the most brilliant among us, suddenly shivered at an unseen blow, and sank down with a death-groan among the lying gayety and splendor of our banquet."—From ELLE ET LUI, by Kate Hillard. in the April number of LippincoWs Magazine,

CLARK COUNT*! ELOPEHENT.

The Old Man Keeps His Daughter's Appointment bat Declines to Elope with the Gay Dceivor.

Erom the Louisville Courier Jotima I An attempted elopement of a married man having a wife and four children, 'with a gay young widow, has caused some sensation and considerable talk in Clark county, Indiana. The parties reside in the village of Henry ville, and are cousins by marriage. The man who was willing to forsak his wife and family for the smiles of the widow is not blessed with much of this world's filthy lucre. The gay and festive widow, on the other hand, is tolerably well off, and, withal, fortunate in possessing personal attractions of no small order. But it is not known whether the form or the wealth of the lady brought the erring husband into her clutches. Suffice it to say. that he succeeded in getting money, valuables, and some notes from her, and appointed a meeting for the purpose of elopement.

The plan agreed upon was for the man to go to Jeffer8onville on the morning train, and the widow to follow on the evening train. According to agreement, last Thursday morning the faithless husband deserted his wife and little ones and took the cars for that city. After dining at the Bruner House, he then went to the depot to await the lady who, for the future, was to share his love. The father of the lady, a rich and sturdy old farmer, had in the meantime got wind of the arrangement, and boldly charged his daughter with her contemplated crime. She confessed and told him all the arrngements. The father then jumped on board the train, and instead of No. 4 on the J., M. and I. Railroad bringing a fair widow to meet one she "loved not wisely but too well," it brought a wrathful father to avenge the wrongs of his family.

The false husband was at the depot, patiently awaiting the arrival of the train, which came at last, and while peering into a car he was suddenly grasped by the collar, and on turning beheld, to his horror, the angry countenance of the stout farmer. A scene ensued, which ended by the father of the lady making the runaway disgorge all he had belonging to his daughter. The fellow then made himself rapidly scarce, taking a straight shoot for the ferry, and has not been l^ard from since.

WeU Said

Show us an intelligent family of boys and girl3, and we will show you a family where newspapers and periodicals are plentiful. Nobody who has been without these silent private tutors, can know their educational power for good and for evil. Hav^you never thought of the innumerable topics of discussion which they suggest at the breakfast table, the most important public measures with which, thus early, our children become familiarly acquainted great philanthropic questions of the day, to which unconsciously their attention, and the general spirit of intelligence, is evoked by these quiet visitors Anything^ that makes home pleasant, cheerful and chatty, thins the haunts of vice, and the thotftuid and one avenues of temptation, should certainly be regarded, when we consider its influence on the mind of the young, as a great moral and social blessing.

A South Wind Longing

Here is something timely and delicious from Warner's "Back-Log Studies" in the April number of Scribner's:

Perhaps the influence of the four great winds on character is only a fanned one but it«iaevidentontemperament,whichis not altogether a matter of temperature, although the good old dea^n us^ to say, in his humble, simple way, that his third wife was a very good woman, but her "temperature was very different from that of the other two." The north wind is full of courage, and puts the stamina of endurance into a man, and it probably would into a woman too if there were a series of resolutions passed to that effect. The west wind is hopeful it has promise, and adventure in it, and is, except to AU lantic voyagers America-bound, the best wind that ever blew. The east wind is peevishness it is mental rheumatism and grumbling, and~curl one up in the chim-ney-corner like a tat And if the chimney ever smokes, it smokes when the wind sits in thatquarter. The south wind is full of longing and unrest, ot effeminate suggestions, of luxurious ease, ^nd perhaps we might say of modern poetry,—at any rate modern poetry needs a change of air. I am not sure but the south is the most powerful of the winds, because of its sweet persuasiveness. Nothing so stirs the blood 'in spring, when it comes up out of the tropical latitude it makes men "longen to gon on pilgrimages."

I did intend to insert here a little poem (as it is quite proper to do in an essay) on the south wind, composed by the young lady staying with us, beginning

Oat of a drifting southern cloud My soul beard the night-bird err— but it never got any further than this. The yonng lady said it was exceedingly difficult to write the next two lines, because not only rhyme but meaning had to be procured. And this is true anybody can write .first.lines, and that is probably the reason we have so many poems which seem to have been begun in just this way, that is, with a sonth-wini-longing without any thought in it, and it is very for* tunate when there is not wind enough to finish them. This emotional poem, if I may so call it, was begun after Herbert w^at away. I liked it, and thought it was what is called "suggestive although I did not understand it, especially what the night-bird was: and I am afraid I hurt the young lady's feelings by asking her if she ment Herbert by the "night-bird,"—a very absurd suggestion about two unsentimental people. She said, "Nonsense but she afterwards told The Mistress that there were emotions that one could never put into words without the danger of being rediculous: a profound truth. And yet I should not like to say that there is not a tender lonesomeness in love that can get bomfort out of a night-bird in a cloud, if there be such a thing. Analysis is the death of sentiment.
