Horace Porter, and conveys to some enterprising reporter bis views of the" political ' situation. Gen. Horace Porter is fluukoy-in-chief to bia Excel? lency the President of the Uuited States; he holds the position pf military valet in the Executive household, and ie expect? ed to perform those services whioh are a little above tho sphere of an ordinary servant, and ' a little below the tastes of a well-bred gentleman. When the Pre aident lakea.snuff, Gen. Horace Porter feels o??^?it?flTtt ahet-zo; when tho Pr?? sident vYslfe the royal atables, Gen. Ho raoe Porter examines the equine favor? ites with bli master, ' and offers such suggestions as bis?; jockey judgment dic? tates; when tho President visits the royal kennels, Gen. Horace Porter becomes a neat edition, bonnet in calf, of "Youalt on the Dog," and learnedly diaousoes the various1 points and proclivities Of the happy barkers; :whenithe President airs himself ou thD avenue, Gen. Horace Porter walka three paces in the rear, and sees that nothing V?nseomJy comes be? tween the wind end'the Presidential no? bility; ' when the President roooives a delegatjt?n, General Horace Porter is on hand to pass cigars and inject ideas into the Presidential'brain; and 'when the President''goes to Hong Branch, he car? ries Gen. Hbrace: Porter: with him to look after the baggage and entertain such guests as in Pr?sidentiel opinion deserve nothing more than the atten? tion of au underling. -The President would find it exceedingly difficult to get nloug without the assistance of General Horace Porter, and G?noral Horace Por? ter has a very nice:thing, which be would like to koep four yours more. Therefore, General : Horneo Porter is highly indignant at the probability that on and after the fourth day of March next, there will be no further use for him at the White House, and that he will have to hunt Apaches, oatch Ku Klux or retire to the blissf ul obscurity of private life. In Generul Horatio Porter's estimation, the present irm?mbont should oooupy the chair of H tate; for life, on the sole condition that General Horace Por? ter is to be 'retained as the bright parti? cular ornament- of the;President's do? mestic staff.; If General Horace Porter had his say, there would be no election, but an Tude??ilB continuance of the Grant dynasty, with Porter accompani? ments. So,: when General - Horace Por? ter unpacks bis bosom of the political wisdom therein concentrated, the coun? try ought to take off i ts hat and listen to the oracle, knowing that on Porter there is no discount, and inrhim no manner of guile. Ii Generul Horace Porter having given the Bubjeot tho prayerful consideration inspired by a tender stomach and sus? ceptible pocket, boldly declures that "if Horace is elected, the American people will be entirely responsible"-which, we take it, is about the most sensiole remark General Horaoe Porter ever made. Moreover, General Horace Porter affirms that "the Democrats are thoroughly dis? gusted with Greeley"-which, we take it, is about as brilliant a falsehood as Gene? ral Horace Porter over uttered. General Horace Porter says he bas a heavy list of prominent Democrats "of great standing and life-long reputation," who have volunteered to take the stump for Grant -which, we take it, is one of those cock-and-bull stories for which the Por? ter family are so remarkable. Finally, General Horace Porter "entertains no doubt of Grant's election"-which view cf tbs cass, we- take it, ia lue result ul an incurable obliquity of mootai vision quite natural under the circumstances, Ii the American people were all built on the plan which the Creator adopted iu constructing General Horace Porter, the success of Grant would indeed be a foregone conclusion; but os a very large majority of them detest tho flau Ley i sm, the snobbishness, the corruption and the manifold abuses which Grnct and Porter represent, we must decline placing implicit faith in the assertions or predic? tions of that sweetest scented flower in all the Presidential garden-General Ho? race Porter.-Si.

A Bu o AJ>ER Honiz 03. -Senator Carl Schurz, in his speech at Greensboro, I NorthGaro?ua, last Saturday, tonoried the marrow of the whole question ol' the treatment of the South.-. 'Haferring to | (he faithful legislation of jDongross for the protection of the colored race, and the fostering care with which" their free? dom had been watched, be said that this having been accomplished, the eye of 0ie party had to swoop a broader ?po^itioal horizon. The freedman has b?en tho ward of the nation; he has been en? couraged in his timid endeavors to make his own way in the world; he has not been left to the unreasoning fury of men who BU ffored the pangs of defeat and the humiliation of disfranchisement. . But tba negro does , not longer ask special privileges; he is able1 to take care of himself, and only demands,that he shall have equal rights and liberties with his neighbors. So it becomes our duty to give those privileges to the white ex rebel as well as to the black ex-slave. The time bas come (when the -war bas been over for eight years) for all to make their way in the world together. It is the duty of the Government ' to give po? litical rights to every oitizeu of the Union; not only to the men who have been freed from bondage, but to those who laid down their arms Sud in good faith accepted the issue of battles fought. The Senator, tracing the history of reconstruction, shows that while the co? lored people have been protected by stringent laws aimed against their late mantera, they have secured the fruits of freedom,: and < have learned to stand alone. But, meantime; tho long arm of Federal power bafc reached into"every Southern State, in order to control elec? tions, oppress the people-, und perpetu? ate the existing Administration in power. Whatever uedd':tb^;;f'^^(';hay?; be^n; eight years ago,.for;?opresaiVje measures and stringent legislation*:norla caa {ho? nestly argue that this necessity muot exist indefinitely. We must' protect the liberties of tho few, but need we-, endan? ger tho liberties of the many? Yet it is hard to convince the-Administration and its followers that it is time fdr'the South to be restored to a normal condition of things.. The bands of tai mili toity despot iam>onoe upon thoao Staten,-it seems im? possible to have-'(beni' lifted.- TheSquth ern' people cannot .bb trusted'to.'yute; they are hot, trysted to, manage their own : affairs. They are continually re- ; minded ?hat they are in trammels and not free citizens-peers of any Others in the Bepublic. It ia evident enongh that this system of repression is sought to be continued only that tho party sustaining it shall be kept in power. Let ns have the South held down a few years more, they say, and we may keep our seats in the Government; af ter ua, the deluge. But the reign of terrorism aud the carpet-bagger is over. The horizon is broadening, and people do see that we cannot afford to violate the principles of justice by keeping any olass of. men under a ban. It is time that political amnesty were complete and sectional legislation brought to an end. Tiiero is no longer any reason why laws ('nomi? nally of general application should bo leveled at the Southern States '/atone. Held fast by painful bouda, tho'SouLh has been plundered of her resources until a thrill of indignation bas run through the North at the woful sight.. .It is enough! National legislation must em? brace in' its beneficent scope all citizens and all classes pf citizens. The day. of revenges is past; the era of real: peace has come.--New York Tribune. ? . AK UNNATURAL MOTHES.-From a trustworthy source we have obtained the ioilowiog: On Sunday last an unnatural mother, living on a prominent street West of Central avenue, made two at? tempts, to murder her child, a boy, who has accomplished but a few months over two years on the' journey of life. Early on Sunday morning a servant girl,.em? ployed in the houser hoard . strange sounds issuing from tho bath room. Foroing ari ' entr?nge, 3 abe found . the mother standing over tbo'bath tub hold? ing the hoad of the child under tho water. . The girl matched, the victim from the woman's grasp, and after sn ineffectual endeavor to' restore conscious? ness to the little ono, she callod a physi? cian, who succeeded, ofter fifteen or twenty minutes of' constant exertion, in bringing the child back to life. Later in the day the mother made a second at? tempt to murder her offspring by cutting its throat; and before her hand was stayed she had cut a gash in the infant's neck, under the left ear, nearly two inches in length. . The boy waa taken in charge by a relative and may reoover. The only ground upc i whioh tho horri? ble and unnatural conduct of the mother can be palliated ia the supposition of insanity, caused by a too free use of liquor. - The whole affair, as we anderstand, has been carefully concealed from lithe authorities.-Cincinnati Gazette.
