Ileturns from New Hampshire indi
cate that n.o Republicans elected their
ticket in that State on Tuesday, by
something more than ' a thousand
votes. We are not at all : surprised at
the result pn fact, we expected, it.
cannot trust any State whose interests
are confined to manufactories. The
great mass of voters are merely politi
cal automatons; are under the sur
veillance of their employees ; have no
freedom of opinion; are dependent
upon others for their daily bread; and
like dumb cattle, are driven to the
shambles at their master's will. Be
sides, there is nothing in common be
tween us and the New England peo
ple. Mean and petty in their spite;
vindictive and malignant,, in their ha
tred; and base andxo ward ly by nature,
they are incapable of a magnanimous
act or of any yof the noble impulses
that "actuate a warm and generous
heart. They tried us once, and found
us so hard to conquer, that they have
feared us ever since and would now
after a decade of peace, favor any
measure that would place collars upon
our necks or make gallery slaves of our
Southern manhood. Their only possi
ble objection to the Democratic party
is, that it favors the freedom and en
fraachisement of the Southern States ;
and that alone, is sufficient to damn
it forever iu the eyes of the New Eng
land yankee. Yet while we expected
nothing patriotic from the Radical
yankee, wjiqse very name is the syno
nym of all that is pusillanimous and
sordid in nature, nevertheless we can
not but feel somewhat dejected at the
course of New Hampshire on last
Tuesday. The people who did the
voting are at least human creatures ;
have the blood of the Anglo Saxon
race coursing in their veins, and are
sufficiently intelligent to know that
it is a violation of all laws both hu
man and divine, either to steal or bar
bor the thieves who are plundering all
that is sacred and valuable in their
own country. The Radical party has
swept like a typhoon over the plains
of this broad Union ; it has schorched
the fields and withered the vegetation
it has defaced the landmarks and de
stroyed our institutions ; it has spit
upon our cherished traditions and de
fied our laws ; it has trampled upon
our liberties and plundered our treas
ures, it has shamed us at home and
disgraced us abroad ! and New Hamp

The dark flood of Radicalism that has
8 wept over the country for the last ten

been stolen by
the millions, and the tracks of the
thieyes traced directly to the White
House. An age of peculation and
venality such as probably no nation
has witnessed since the degenerate
days of Caligula and Didius of the
Roman Empire, has sprung up here
in our midst ; and instead f an honor
it now has become a reproach to be
called an American citizen ! Reports
that bribery and dishonesty were dis
covered in the Cabinet and among the
highest trustees of tbe government
electrified the wires and astounded
the people from one end of this conti
nent to the other, yet right upon the
heels of these most startling disclo
sures, New Hampshire endorses the
course of an administration that pro
tects and shields the perpetrators of
the dark crimes. We verily believe
that corruption is one of the strong
est bands that holds the Republican
party together, and the more wide
spead it is developed, the more closely
it is determined to stick. Surely the
sturdy yeomen of the great West and
States like New York cannot endorse
such shameless acts.
AN INDUCEMENT TO MARRY.
Young men as a general rule have
an extreme y hard time and being
aware of the thoughts and impulses
that actuate them, we have a kindlv
'eeling for : their troubles. Every old
and middle aged person thinks the
proper subject for gratuitous , advice is
tbe young man. "Whyxlon't you get
married f" is the annoying query that
greets him at every turn. And why
don't the young man tret married?
It is an easy question put, but often a
difficult one answered. Probably the
poor fellow has done his best - and has
made a miserab.e failure: then the
question sounds like a mockery and a
taunt ! "W hy don't you get married, I
you will then settle down and people
wili hate more confidant in vnn ?
j .
But then again, the young man has a
meagre salary that will scarcely sup
port himself, and he is far from being
confident that hejc'an feed two, proba
bly more than two, -(a mother-in-law
for instance) as easily as one. Why
don't you get married ? the reply
shquld(be, if you h.ayej so -inuch con
cern for my -welfare, arid if yon are so
desirous to Jsee me settle down, hold
out some substantial .inducement that
would 'justify m6 in-staking' the spare

Belknap.
The Ameiican people "are' called
upon to pause at the threshold oftheir
centennial celebration and blush for
the miserable fall of a Cabinet officer.
The hour when' we are invited to cons
template with pride the personal and
public virtue which characterized the
servants of the infant republic lends
darker hues to the guilt of their suc
cessors. The event is to be regarded as a na
tional disgrace and as a national ca
lamity.. Turn and twist the matter as
we may there is no redeeming ele
ment, no favorable feature on whnb
to hang a charitable hope or an apolo
getic construction.
General Belknap has been false to
his friend, the President; false to his
party, false to his country, false to tbe
memory oi an honorable lather and
false to his little ones, not yet old
enough to realize the inestimable in
heritance ot an honest name.
An event that lends no ray of con
solation to the warm hearts of person
al mends, and which disarms the vin
dictiveness of political enemies, may
at least afford the one good end of
pointing a moral.
This sale of a birthright for a mess
of pottage may be traced to the love of
extravagant display which possesses
the society women of the capitol with
a hold as powerful as that which the
seven devils had upon Mary Magdalen.
We have become so rammer with the
signs of wealth in all official quarters
that inquiry into the means whereby
those riches are obtained is not made.
We know that the day of miracles is
over, yet silently acquiesce in the ex
hibition of Lydian wealth on the part
of public servants whose salaries can
neither purchase nor justify more
than dign fied and democratic sim
plicity. 111-gotton and well gotton wealtn
have usurped the leadership of society
and a once conservative respectability
based on moral qualities, intellectual
traits and inherited names, has yielded
to the influences of the hour.
The social aspect suggests a senn-
barbarous feast, where the tables
groan with vulgar redundancy and
good taste and utility arepostponed to
disgusting display.
ibis order of things furnishes the
picture of respectable feminine pover
ty struggling to rival money unrein
forced bv brains or merit.
We do not beleive that wives and
daughters realize in the slightest de
gree how much their pitiful ambition
for di8play"contnbute8 to the dishon
oring of husbands and fathers and to
debasing of the moral tone of society.
It is customary, we are informed,
for a society woman to dazzle, not by
her beauty or conversation, but by the
oualitv of her dress and the value of
leweis, and that acostome is not re
marked upon as being in good taste,
but having cost so many hundred dol
lars. We trust that sober second
thought, that virtue will lead to a re
formation before necessity compels
one, and that poor women will prefer
to retire from the whirlpool of wealth
rather than tempt men todeeds which
must consign them to the penitentia
ry, the contempt of the honorable and
the pity of the charitable.
One thing is certain, the last straw
has been put on the camel's back. In
the future, extravagance will be scru
tinized with suspicion, display regard
ed as the badge of assured vulgarity
and possible fraud, and moderation be
respected for its integrity. Washing

Particulars of the Suspension of the
Bank of the State of New York.
New York, March 14 The Bank
of the State of New York, and not the
Bank of New York, has closed doors.
The following are the particulars: On
Saturday last the bank examiner re
ported to the manager of the clearing
house committee, that the affairs of
this bank were in such condition as to
require the attention of the clearing
house. The clearing house committee
were called together late on Satur
day, and after discussion decided
to call in the conference committee.
A meeting of the joint committees
was held this morning, and they call
ed before them Duer, the President,
and Patrick, the Vice President of the
Bank of the State of New York. Not
receiving from thorn a satisfactory
explanation, they unanimously deci
ded to suspend the bank from the
privileges of the clearing house until
a full meeting of that body could be
obtained. The examination shows
large unsettled overdrafts. The
capitol is impaired about one-half.
No Geit. It was midnight. The
young man had farewelled himself
out, and Emeline had locked the door
and was untying her shoes when her
mother came down stairs with a bed
quilt around her and said :
"Wanted to creep up stairs without
my hearing you, eh ? Didn't think I
knew it was an hour after midnight,
did you?"
The girl had no reply, and the
mother continued :
"Did he propose this time?"
"Why mother!" exclaimed the
daughter.
"You can 'why, mother!' all you
want to, but don't I know that he has
been coming here for the last year?
Don't I know that you've burned up at
least four tons of coal courting around
here ?"
The girl got her shoes off, and the
mother stood in the stair door and
asked :
"Emeline, have you got any grit?"
1 guess fo.
"I guessyou haven't. I just wish
that a feller with false teeth and a
mole on his chin would come spark
ing me. Uo vou Know what would
happen, Emeline?"
"No."
"Well, I'll tell you. He'd come to
time in sixty days or he'd get out of
this mansion like a goat jumping for
sun Sower seeds."
Emeline went to bed to reflect over
it. Detroit Free Press.

New York Eloquence.
The following is a . specimen of, the
eloquence of the New York City bar.
Mr. Howe is one of the big dogs of the
profession.
Three-Decker Howe Your Honor,
the eloquent, magnificent and grandil
oquent Judge Goodlet, has sustained
his ever memorable reputation to this
case. His Honor ia unstained bythe
hyenas of conscience, and bis eschut
son untarnished by the cobra dccapelos
of an untutored mind. The hairy tar
antulas of remorse, and the hydra
centipedes of vengeance have trod
the avenue of his heart without leav
ing a discernible footprint. He stands,
your Honor, upon the everglade of
self-satisfaction, but he throws his eyes
over the unas groves of public disap
probation. He knew the weakness of
bis client s case, and like a Jegal Han
nibal, he preferred to linger in the Sar-
danapalian parlors of Capua to advan
cing upon the steel pointed phalanxes
of Rome; Like Falstaff, he has deci
ded that discretion is the better part of
valor, and like Reddy the BlacKsmitb,
he believes that honesty is the best
policy, and that you should never de
spise a man because he wears a rag
ged coat.
Sir, the hanging birds of public sen
timent are warbling in the trees above
us. Intense applause, Their music
is sweeter than French operas. I
would that their mellifluous notes
would titilate the heart of this venera
ble judge from Ohio, until the seeds of
self-condemnation should germinate
into the beautiful flowers of repen
tance, and he should offer in his
own behalf, if not on the behalf
of his client, a profound apology to
the defendant in this case.
The complainant's newspaper, the
Times, has said that there is no retri
butive justice in New York. Sir, the
cocoanuts of justice hang upon the
trees of popular rights, and bananas of
equity spring trom the gorgeous shrub
bery of the public sentiment, which
should always be respected. A man
whose heart is undetiled with the
toadstools of avarice may pluck, these
cocoanuts and bananas with impunity,
with your Honor's permission. Life
is short, but the thistledown of notori
ety is ever dancing above the clover
heads of honeBty, industry and unre
mittant toil. Judge Goodlet, your
Honor, recognizes this fact, and hence
he withdraws trom this case of lurid
disgust. There is retributive justice
in this city, especially when a man
enters the Sim office and calk one of
its editors a liar. From now and
henceforward, and until the earth
shall appear but as a wart' upon the
thigh of nature, overbearing intru
ders from the land of King George,
will understand that it is dangerous
in the extreme to walk into the
Sun office and call one of its editors a
liar.
Your Honor, we appear before you,
backed by the cheveux de rise of public
opinion, and the ramparts of personal
rights. The Gathng guns of self-iusti
fication are double shotted, and the
Chassenots of intellectuality are fur
nished with sixty r unds of amuni
tion. We say this, rot to terrify your
Honor, but to enable vou to render a
decision in this case, based on the roll
ing praries of justice, and the broad
savannahs of rectitude. Tremendous
applause J
