After a prolonged and angry struggle over the Prosi dential lucstion, whih had seem ingly divided the Democratic party diring the last'days of the contest iqto two wings, they wore rQtnited .m an instant and welded togeth'r in a solid mass when this gie:att principle wa's assailed. The Army bill reported by the roB' ittee of the - House contained :t*6 leading elements. First, a re duction-of toe force from twenty five thousand to.seventeen thousand men ; and secondily, a prohibitioni a 'nst the President's using any x ft of the money or the troops thud granted, in sustaining illegal goverinents in 'South Carolina and Louisiana. Twenty years ago the Republicains. then a tmajority in the House, tacked on a similai condi -tion to the Army bill, making it ap plicable to Kansas. When free speech and froo immi gralion into that Territory woro to be' defended, the Rep'ublicans of thdL day, ini the feshtiesAfof their youth and in their fidelity to the principle whichecalled that party itto exist, once, demanded that a Democratic I President should not iso the army to aid or abet irs the - extension of slavety. They were right then Now, >vhcn it is proposed.- to, curb the Executive and defend t.he rights of the' States against oppression, to protect libe-ty Mid -to 'put down tyranny v id fraud, -tome of the same;t men and the same - party, giown corrupt,andJoose, and..4...d,. noralize, turn arouptd and renounce the -very principle which gave them Sthe only claim tg., popular.. coni donece and support.

Repeated conferences wg'e In vain. The revolutionary 14aders who are nowv sttiving for the possession of flayes,nd ale inimical to overy suggestion of a conciliatory policy, determined to force this issue, and thus to drit''o the more moderate wing of . the Republican party into line. The House of ' Representatives stood up bravely and faithfully to its duty, and insisted- upon' main taining its position ; and the Army bill was lost by the obstinacy of IJayos' professed friends 1 in the Senate. No injury will be inflicted on the service or on the country by this mnishap. We rejoice. 't the failure, because public attention will now be drawnl to a huge military establishment whtich the people are required to support by oppressive taxation, and to the disgraceful abuses wich have grown 'up under it. The money for the arrny is ailroady appropriated for -the current fiscal year to the 30tlof - Jhme, or four months ahead There is ab~undanlt time for reflection, and if an extraordinary sessiomi of Congress be. required, why, let it como..

Mary Cleunor, writing of United .States senators and treasury girls, says : A very fe years ago I hap ponetl to be in a house where,. a senator of the United States-a widower-paid the most marked at tention to a lady in it, who earned I r living im a department office. Neither her intelligence nor her culture was large, but ,asho was comely to bdhohd, and had a i afroc tionato disposition. The min - who sought her society to the exclusioi of all other male aspirants, who drove away her young man to threatened suicide, had many gifts to charm weak women denied the. power of penetration and tle heavon sent protection of insight. In the woman's heart" \vith love's young dream played visions of dawning splendor, of the coning. pomp,, and glory of life soon to be all hers as a senator's wife. She told her friends of the approaching marriage, and the :senator's public, absolute and undivided devotion certainly seemned outward proof of her halpy asor ions. Her monthly stipeng was insufficient to procure a Fuflicient rmtfiu for the grand (mino of tie future. She borrowed money from more than one friend, and putting it with her own savings in' NW York, bought a costly trousseau, fit for a senator's wife. She came back to Washington with it. She made ready for or nuptials. The mnarriage day Was set. It ealte tt not the senator. Where was be ? Gone to his daughter. He liared her fond arms with her 1rg> Jog. Here the smiling and witty "victim" shut his handsome eyes in pious peace, ;thanking God that it last he was beyond the designs of "that woman." To hear ' the laughter toll the story was some thing wonderful, "Poor father !, "Almost caught in such a: ;.pitfal;'... "Such a designing piece 1" "She courted him-certamnly she did 1" Yet everybody who kiew the two knew perfectly well that lie was a sinner full of guile, whose practice on woman's affections was a fine irt, and that she was a woman, un mnspecting and high minded to a singular degree. Had she been loss sensitive and more worldly, sho would have sued him for breach of promise. As it was, she hid .her marriage garments out of sight, and went back to her, iesk ; there she sits to-day. We all know that a woman of sensibility would never sue a man for bi'alh of promise of marriage, no matter whab her wrongs might . be utr t, is fo'rtunate for justice that sono VOmell are not troubled Witdi - bility, and do their bept' 'to' hake such1 masculine .sinners stif'er at least a p)art pf what they deserve.
