YOUNG. Are human beings possessed now a days with so morbid so appetite that it csn be only appeased by a continued course of intense excitement, even of the most revolting and unworthy nature. The lives and sets of those who consti tute the "power of the nation," certainly prove the world of mind strangely agog. Ever since tho cessation^ - of hostilities there have been wranglings, quibblings and juggliugs without end to annex a Fifteenth Amendment; end scarcely his this fiendish deed been accomplished than the politicul heavens become overcast by a cloud of more terrible import than all others, in the form of a Sixteenth Amend ment. And what does it mean ? What need for another appendage 7 What its sub ject? What its object? Women of America, veil your pure taces to conceal the blushes that should mantle your checks at mention of the word Sixteenth Amendment, for it is sn insult to your purity?s shame to your honor, the death-blow to your womanhood. You may question how this can be ? How t Is it no shame that men should stand in legislative hall and use the pure and gentle nsme of woman in noisy de bate or, hnrsh and jeering tone, that should make the heurt die .' uTis sod that men should scoff utid trample on euch other ;.but oh, tis bitter wrong that they should drag mother, wile and sister from her higher shrino to crush her in tho dust! Sixteenth Amendment! Woman's shame ? Not that alone. When tho act is done which proclaims woman has entered the political arena to contest fur position and power, it will bo the final deed?the last signuture to the death-warrant of a once glorious nation. Ah truly indeed, may the poet siug, ??Fold that banner, for '*lia weary." ?^fSs, fold it?'drape it in mourning ?~ wreathe it in crape, for the nation is dead ! Strange, passing strange, that woman should contend for power ; should so far forget her self-respect und duty ns to stand before a gaping, curious crowd, and with her woman * voice cry out for equal rightt! Equal rights! For what? To be trodden under foot? To ho jostled and jeered by a noisy, clamorous mob? Think you, Oh, deluded creatures, to save the already tottering fabric of governmcut? Vain delusion ! for with the power of equal rights the old, sweet influence of woman is forever gon?! Will the rude, drunken creature wrang ling at the ballot box heed the reproot from the voice beside him in the noisy crowd? Will he not rather lift his baud to strike the reprover? Not cowardly? as for a man to raise his hand against u woman?but as muu to man ; for with her equal rights she must accept the cruel taunt, and hear the harsh and wicked words, or lift her woman's hand iu soil-defense. Wiiut prompts those culling themselves women to demand umong tue urchives of the nation there shall be placed one law giving to them such privileges us only men should claim? Is it ambition ? Heed not the siren voice; it will prove but u "Will o' the Wisp," leading you through sodden marshes into tho fatal quicksand. Do not strong met) go down fa.ot and weary? See them fulling by the wayside/ The soiled and tattered banuer ou which they hud traced, in joyous hope, "Excelsior," trailing in the dust?a bruised aud crushed form beside them?seen too late. In their haste and upward gazing, iu their earnest, reaching for the "castles in the air," they saw not the beautiful flowers at their feet, heeded not the pleading form and yearning heart, n.nd in striving for fame und power, happiness, was lost, and as they full tho truth of all they might have been floats around and away from them into tho "nameless yonder ," The shoro is strewn with the wrecks of barks guided by strong hands. Cuu tho trembling, weak hand of woman hope to steer more safely o'er the rough, tempestuous sou ol lite ? The nation is dying, and woman must save I?Then, to the rescue ! Nut at tho bullot-box ; not in legislative hull ; not by haranguing heedless multitudes; but iu the quiet ol home, with the groat, wicked world shut out, oxerciso the power thstisthero your right, none dare dispute, There you can vhw a position the highest earth can bestow. Hy the quiet fireside, the true, loving mother instilling principles oi truth, purity sod honor into tho heart and mind of the prattling boy at he? aide, is wield tug ? power f.* greater than these nondescripts can hope to obtain by the establishment Of a thousand amend ments. Some of these so-called advo cates of Woman's Rights awert that wen have become so ael6sh an 1 wicked they are no longer capable of < ontrolling the destiny of nation or woman. Men are evil. They have only left the Greater Good, and must bo aroused lb a knowledge of the fact, and they will -return to their allegiance. The Creator declared man the rnler "over the birds, of the air, the beasts 01* the field,/ nud not that alone, but pronounced him the* "head of the woman.'* Arc we wiser than the Divine Architect? "That some *<tmen aro sup- i erior to some mnn intellectually forms an exception ; that ail women are super ior to all me.: morally is no. indisputable truth, for IV is another ?jyidcnce of the wisdom of the Maker. 'Man, with his great mental and physich 1 strength, is prepared to encounter thl: storms of life and battle against theiy; but in this daily strife human hearts grow hard and cold, wander far from "^HS Tight, and?1 struggling amid the darH?css, Would be lost were there uot a presence near, bear ing the greater strength nmn have not.? Thus woman lifts him 'lip, and renews the better self, and man'and nations are saved! If within the sacred^realm of home father, brother or husband in a moment of sudden passion utter those quick, harsh words of wrong that men do some times say, a gentle lo\ing voice, and pleading tone Haying : "Oh my darling, don't say, such words! they* are so wrong and stain your soul!" v;:.! linger iu the heart, and follow him jinto the great world beyond, and in a meitttent of sudden temptation the quick words come, but remain unuttered, for be can not sully lips sacred to her bo pure hud true. Ah, is not that a nobler yw>ww, a greater in fluence than the loud-v.ncca creature clamoring for a Sixteenth Amendement can ever acquire ? Therms _y?t:x power ?-There, your rf^iG'^lTTSffidrT nofic can' deprive you. Then strive to cultivate your heart, beautify your home?make it more attractive than the brilliantly illuminated halls of dissipation and sin. nud no more will you see your loved husband, father, brother or son reeling nud staggoring, or with simpering smile, und eyes dimmed by that poisonous draught, that proves at laat the double tuurderei?murderer of his soul aud your own and heart. Teach the innocent boy I at your side his first duty is to hia God, the next to his country. Ry instilling I into the pure young heart lessons of I truth, self sacrifice and honor you are preparing a champion for your rights nobler and truer thau -your owu frail, I woman's voice ever hoped to be in the balls of the nation. Then, .. y sifters, let us say to those who are demanding a place for woman iu the councils of thu laud, we do uot ask it, do not wish it; we only crave that those who ever guided the Ship of Stute will forget their wrangling, forget their selfish desires for power, return to their allegiance, bury the dead past, be true to their conutry. Let us lift the soiled and trailing banner, take the gruud old charter of our Fathers and place them iu our brother's bauds, saying, "Tukethem, oh, our brothorp, for our feeble hands eanuot boar their massive weight ! Take them as our Fathers gavo them. Your wrongs shall be our wrongs, your rights our rights henceforth ! We have uot lost the old faith in you. Do not fear to trust our brothers. Take them these ?acred gilts, scaled by the blood and prayers of our Futhers; und with them we give the keeping of our lives, 0?i7 country and our sacred Won;*n'i honor !" A gentle Quaker had two hoi?us, a vory good and a very poor one. Wbeu seeu riding the latter, it t timed uut that his butter half had taken the good oue. "What!" said a suoering batchelor, "how Corres it that you let y,.ur wife ride tho better i.orse ?" Tho only reply was: "Friond, when thec be married tliec'll know." '?You seem animated by this fine soene, my dear Annie," suida lover. ".No," s.iid she, ?' 1 shall uovcr bo Annie-nutliul till 1 am your wife, dearest ;" and he gave her such a kiss that Jotnima vowed sho thought somebody had hit a<rniust our streot-door with a life-preset vefK ii made such a noise.

Sentence or a Female Perjurer. ?Sarah Qore, a white woman, convicted in Philadelphia of perjury, hus been fined $500 and sentenced to the peui tentiary for seven years. Judge Paxon, in passing sentence, thus addressed the prisoner: "You deliberately and falsely charged a respectable citixen with high crime upon your person. And having uiudo it, you brought him into this court on trial, and upon that trial you committed will ful, deliberate and corrupt perjury, in order to convict him. You did all you could to consign an innocent man for a long term of years to the penitentiary, and to blast his reputation for all time. Nor is that nil. I have judicial know [ ledge tf the fact that you have made similar charges against aovorul other e I speotable citizens, for tho purpose of ex torting money, and that in some of these eases yeu have been successful; but Mr. Weiner would not submit to your de mands. He appeals to a jury of his fel low-citixens, and thoy have vindicated him ; and ho has also brought you to the bar of justice, for which he deserves the thanks ot every good citixen. "Your offence is one which can receive no mercy here. While wo give a burg lar the extreme penalty of the law, we can do no less iu a case like this. A man had better have twenty burglars in his house than one such woman as you. A burglar may steal the property of tho citixen. You would rob him of his good name to make him infamous in the com muuity, aa well as sow the seeds oi dis cord io hi* domestic relations. ? ?'? - ? ? ?. ?' ? ?' ? ' ?'??-- ? A J?jtK oarJljsNRY Clay:?-Mr. C ay wm a Western nian, and any measure he supposed would aid the Great 1tVb4/( always had hissripport. Some emigrants from-the Khiue hap pened to settle st Vevsy, Ind., and eon* ceived the idea, then a new one, that American grapes would make good wiua The experiment was tried and was a success. A present of half a dozen bot tled wss sent to Mr. Clay, who, as might be supposed, was in raptures over tho success attending the experiment. ' A couple of bottles was carefully put aside to be taken to Washington,' in order to have it tested and sampled by the winebibbers of that city. In those days members of Congress travelled either on horseback or by cur? riages to the Federal city. Mr, Clay had his own carriage, and used It on the journey. Whcu the tired horse eauie to a hill, Mr. Clay took advantage of tho eircumstauce to stretch hie weary limb* by walking to the top; but so anxious wss he for the safety of his wine, that wss to show that tho West could pro duce an article not inferior to that made on the Rhine, that he carefully and ten derly carried it, a bottle in each hand, lest thoy should be broken. Arriving at Washington, the wine was presented to Mr Madison then Presi dent of the United States, who, to sh ?w off its good qudity, gave a Urge diuaer party iu honor of the event. The faot that Mr. Clay had preseutcd the Presi dent with a couple of battles of Western wine, made of the ju'.ce of Western gra pes, was made public, and a small quanti ty given to each guest to taste. Esch; sip was succeeded with a wry face, yet all, as a matter of course, pronounced it excellent, superb, magujucciiu As is the cose with all general rules, there was one exception, iu the person of a bluff member of Congress, said to be ex Gov ernor Vance, of Ohio, who turning to Mr. Clay, with a quizzical look, said: "Mr, Clay, this may be excellent wine, Jbnt it tastes to mo ^iko Kentucky whis ky, and mean whiskey at thai?" Mr. Clay seized Iiis glass and tasted, paused a moment, and then was forced to "ac knowledge the corn." Tho sons of Mr. Clay, as anxious as Mr.Clay lo taste the Western wine, had opeued the bot tles at home, drunk tho contents, and filled them with whiskey, and the Great Commoner, knowing nothing of the fact, had carried the new made whiskey iu old wine bottles to Washington, to have it stamped as Western wine. The jofce, so tho tale goes, was so good n one that Mr. Clay forgave the juvenile trespassers, and none en] >ycd it more than he, thudgn he was the victim. ?? <-.( nil td+Jvi t ? v ua;.(u?'.? i ? ??>-?-?-??II Tint Geocoia Villainy.?Georgia is a spleudid example of how lludical reconstruction works. Congress has, bad full swing at the Empire Stute of tu* South; it set niggers, sea Uu wags uud carpet-baggers to work on it; convened and dissolved Legislatures; made und unmade Governors, and iu all things, acted in the extra-royal fashion so char acteristiu of Radical Republicans, and still Georgia is not up to tho mark' The Judiciary Committee of the United Sta tes Senate roports the present Legisla ture of tho State to bo worse than that which preceded it. It is absurd to ima gine that any State will bo sufficiently reconstructed that does not contribute fo to swell tho lludical mnjnriy in Con gress?it will bo romanded back again and again until the des'red result is nb t,inod. Not only must the Southern States return Radical Representative, but they must continue to do so, or be thrust out. Such is tho doctrine emu:, ciatcd by Benst Butler in his speech on tho 4th, in which ho say*, substantial!v, that Congrcra can do?l r:.'h Georgia er any other State at its pleasure, and de monstrate to the world that it. has not abrogated nor abnegated its power over States by the mere fact of admitting them into the Union. This is what we have said si! along. We knew those reconstruction tiicusurt-s wore all shams, ingeniously contrived to keep the States out; that the acceptance of th cm by tho Southern people would not avail them one jot or tittle; that tho object of tho Radical party wss not the rcUorHtiou of the Union, but tho pcrpo tu?ty of Radical rule, and that they Won Id stop at uothlng to seeuro that end. Butler has given notice that Tennessee, whioh has been guilty of the heinous: ctlme ol -'believing herself beyond tho power of Congress," is to be next takeu in hand and shown the folly of su \\ * belief. _ _ ^
